under Ore in th senate today when
lil utterances on his tour of the
1'nltsd Hln l-ii were the subject of a
conflicting debute which wuii enliv
ened by an Interruption from the gal
leries by a negro soldier.
Nenutor HlU-hoock, democrat, Ne
braska, former chairman of the for
eign relations committee, led off in
the debuts with an attack on M
('lomenecnu and of French pollrle.
and win joined In the criticism by
other senators, while Hcnulor Myers,
democrat, MontiiiiH, cume. to the de
lens of the sged French statesman,
Kenator Owen, deinocrut, Oklahoma,
tilso expressed sympathy with M.

tuck upon the wartime premier in
connection with alleged atrocities of
black French coloniula lu Uermuny
that the negro aoldlcr, who Inter gave
Ma name ui Lingua Jonea, a patient
at a government hospital near here,
roae in the gallery and sought to
question the aenutor. Vice President
Ooolldge hanged the gavel nnd senate
ultendiint ruahed forward and re
atralned the man, ao that the que
lion waa never aaked, but excitement
prevailed in the senate.
Kenator lleflln Riled.
The negro noon left the galleries

hale while Henator lleflln, democrat,
Alabama, Incensed at what he termed
waa an "inault" to the acnata, de
inanded the man'a expulNlon. There
had been dlacrimlnatlon, the Ala
bama Henator shouted," declaring that
in the pant women had been
ejected from the galleries of both the
serial and house for interrupting de
bute, while this time the disturber
was permitted to remain.
Henator Curtis, republican, Kansas,
and Hitchcock, however, expressed
lie belief that the negro had acted
through ignorance and no action was
taken In the case.
Henator Hitchcock especially criti
cized the statements of M. Clemen
ceau In reference to the quartering
of French "black troops" on the
Jthln, declaring the former premier's
denials of the use of these troops had
been (Unproved. H also attacked the
French reparations demands on Ger
many. Myers Defend "Tiger."
Senator Myers, In defending M."
Clemenceau, deplored Senator Hitch
cock's criticism of the French states
man and commended French policies
toward Germany. Bonator Owen, al
though criticising French policies, ex
pressed sympathy with M. Clemen
remi's mission, saying the visitor was
"mnklng a pathetic appeal to Amer
ica." Me declared, however, that M.
Clemenceau was largely responsible,
through the Vernal lies treaty, for
present European difficulties and pre
dicted Unit the American people would
not co-operate with France while It
continued present policies.
Henator Hitchcock, replying particu
larly to M. Clemenceau's statement
that no black troops remained In Ger
many, presented figures to show that
l'3.oou black colonials were In Ger
many lust month. The Nebraska
senator also said the reparutlon de
mands upon Germany were "Impos
sible." Senator Myers declared he resented
having M. Cleineitceau "rebuked and
nmiiiiled ' and added that ho was in
complete agreement with M. Clemen-
can's argument "Unit America erred
in not Joining tho lengmt of nations."
Senator owen expressed sorrow that
Clerneiiofiui, Lloyd George and others
at the peace table had "wrung conces
sions" from former President Wilson
nnd caused resentment in 'the country
with sentiment resulting in rejection
t the Versailles treaty.

vous breakdown caused by grief over
the death of one son, Mrs. J. Hill of

a quat-t of his blood to be transfused
Into the veins of his mother.
A month ago Mrs. Hill's younser
son waa killed In a football game. His
back was broken In a scrimmage.
Grief over the memories of the son

A nervous breakdown could not be
averted. Wie was taken to Lincoln.
At Mother's Hide.
Here In Lincoln for a week Kugene
was at his mother's side almost con
stantly. Hut she did not recover.
Constant weeping caused a hemor
rhage. 1
At 0 yesterday morning Doctors C.
H, Arnols and C. IS. Frey, attending

Conduct of Naval
Middies Scored by
Secretary Ocnby
Midshipmen Who Celehratod
Victory Over Army Over
- Indulgently Held Up to
Puhlic Scorn.
Washington, Nov. 27. Midshipmen
from the naval academy who cele
brated over-lndulgently after the an
nual Army-Navy football game Satur
day were held up to public scorn by
Secretary Deuby In one of the moxt
stinging rebukes ever administered by
a secretary of the navy.
Many members of the corps, Mr.
Denby declared in a public statement,
not only disgraced themselves and
the uniform, but by their conduct at
a ball which followed the game- In
Philadelphia, brought such shame
upon the academy Itself us It never
had known beore. ', - -
To Investigate Affair.
The secretary said he did not know
how many of the midshipmen "drank
heavily," and was convinced that the
great majority conducted themselves
with propriety. But he added thai
enough of them' had failed In their;
duty "to bring shame upon all." He
announced that an Investigation
would be begun at once and that
steps would be taken to Insure that
such an occurrence will never be
repeated."
None of the guilty were named in
the secretary's Indictment nor did It
appear certain that the department
would find it possible to single out
any Individuals for punishment. It
was Indicated that the inquiry prob
ably would take the direction of a
general effort to establish what the
conditions were that made the incl-
lent possible, and that any disciplin
ary action probably would fall upon
the entire Annapolis establishment in
such a way as to keep the corps
hereafter within more stringent limi
tations. Attended dame.
Both Secretary Iienby and Secre
tary Weeks of the War department,
together with many of the highest
officer of the army and navy, at
tended the game in Philadelphia, but
It was said that the War department
had no information that any of the
cadets from West Point conducted
themselves Improperly.
Kecretary 1enby said that he wouii
not bring up ai me i-boii mi--i.a
Tuesday the question of the relation
ship between the midshipmen's con
duct and prohibition. Hp drew a
sharp line of demarcation and eai'l
that the Investigation to n '
dueled would le bai-ed on a matter of
military discipline entirely.

Leader of Highjacker Band,
Serving Life for Murder,
Crawls to Freedom
Through Steam Tunnel.
Headed to Omaha, Belief
Jackson, Mich., Nov. !7. (Special.)
Dave Oillnsky of Omaha was on
of IS convicts who escaped from Mar
quette prison here Hunday afternoon
by crawling through a steam pipe
tunnel.
Oillnsky was serving life for
murder.
Ulliuoky waa accused of robbing the
bank t Grass Lake, Mich., July 29.
lt)20, of $89,000 with three compan
ion. The bandit were trapped a
few hours later In a club house at a
nearby lake resort. In the gun fight
which followed Gillnnky was alleged
to have shot and killed Undersherlff
Harry Wordun
Oillnsky Ij believed to be headed
back to Omaha.
After his arrest Oillnsky was iden
tified as the bandit who slew a watch
man during a robbery In Ohio.
Mother Kept In Ignorance.
Mrs. Hymen Oillnsky, 65, 2508
Franklin street, received th news of
her son's escape Incredulously.
"Why, how could he?" she ex
claimed. "Ho had only a year to
serve. He would have come home to
me In another year. Now" Bhe
dropped her hands In the helplessness
of the situation.
Although Oillnsky had been sen
tenced to serv two life, terms In prls-
A
on for shooting; a Michigan under
sheriff, the story has been kept secret
from his mother, who lives in a world
of dreams In which her son, caught
Jn bad company. Is serving a three
year term in prison as a penalty for
having been with crooks.
While the mother talked a daughter
stationed herself behind her chair and
signaled and pleaded mutely with vla
llors not to revenl the secret.
Defends Her Son.
Her frail body shaking with emo
tion until the daughter begged her to
keep still lest she collapue, Mrs. Oilln
sky leaned forward, peering through
spectacles half hiding dimming eyes,
and revealed a mother's faith.
"Who says Dave is a bad boy?" she
challenged. "He's not; he's a good
boy. He Just got mixed up with bad
company. He writes me long letters,
telling how eagerly he looks forward
to the end of next year, when, he will
be releagcd. He was coming right
back to me, back te my arms. 1 can't
understand why he wanted to escape,
for now It may be more than a year,
much more, before I see him."
Mrs. Cllinsky does not read and
her family hns let her dream on, read
ii:g tu her newspaper accounts of the
son's cireer to Hiiit her illusions nnd
creating "a guard" to protect her
from the tongues of uoishbors who
might let Information slip. Once n
tin y her nuirrled daughter, a neigh
bor, visita the mother tu keep the
dream unshuttered.
"She won't Iwdiove anything about
I lave," the daughter, declared. "You
Idiow bow mothers are. But Dave
ha disgraced us till. You don't Know
lilin? Well, you haven't ntim-ed any
thing."

Reckless Driving
Legislation Urged
Attorney Proposes Lohhy for
Laws, to Punish Drivers
Who Kill or Injure.
Lincoln, Nov. 27. (Special.) Fol
lowing two deaths in Lincoln In a
week from automobile accidents,
Charles E. Matson, Lancaster county
attorney, ha written to the Lincoln
Automobile club, urging the organiza
tion to put a lobby in the legislature
this winter to Insure passage of the
following laws:
Force every auto owner In
Nebraska to bond or Insure hie car
to protect any persons he might In
jure or kill.
Force every driver to take out a
license and empower officials to re
voke and cancel licenses when care
less or fast driving Is proved against
the owner.
Provide for Impounding automobiles
in event of frequent and continued
violation of traffic laws.
"Is Is a sad commentary of our
social organization that human life
Is cheaper than property,'' Mntson
said. ".livery month we send men to
the penitentiary from this county for
theft of automobiles, but Jurymen ap
pear not to want to send men to the
penitentiary for the taking of human
life with an atitomoblle.
"The activities of all automobile
organizations may Well be and should
be extended to Include all violations
ot the motor vehicle law."

State in Battle
With Bankers for
Interest on Taxes
Tax Commissioner Telegraphs
Treasurers to Refuse Part
Payments of Overdue
Taxes Pending Suits. .
Lincoln, ' Nov. 27. (Special.) The
state of Nebraska was plunged todaV
Into a fight with state and national
banks to keep them from escaping
their Interest on overdue taxes,
W. Jfl. Osborne, state tax commis
sioner, wired today to all county
treasurers, instructing them to refuse
proffers being made by banks of part
payment of their full taxes pending
determination of validity of taxes Im
posed In suits filed In federal and
state courts.
"If we accepted a part of these
payments," said Mr. Osborne, "It
would mean that It would be impos
sible to collect the Interest on taxes.
"Personal property taxes become a
lien November 1 and draw interest
from and after December 1 and are
subject to distress after February 1
next succeeding the year In which the
assessment was made."
He said in his telegram to the
treasurers that the legislature had In
structed them to collect all or none
of the taxes and that they should not
deviate from such Instructions pend
ing determination of these suits.
"E. M. Morsman of Omaha has
started this move of the bankers,"
continued Mr. Osborne, "lie is the
same man who Ls directing tho North
western Bell Telephone company in
its fight to attempt to get 35 per cent
more revenue from its patrons than It
obtained before the war."

Tax Rebate Plan Beaten
Washington, Nov. 27. (Hy A. P)
Thirty-seven shots In the shape of
amendment were fired at the ad
ministration shipping hill in (lie houiMi
today and six hit spot mora or less1
vital.
At adjournment (he bill had cov
ered exactly one-third of Its temjx-stu-on
voyage townrd the senate. Hep
resentatlve Graham of Illinois, a re
publican, went home with three of
the half do.in amendments in bis
shooting bag, all of which were put
through with tho aid of republican
voters. Karly In tho fight lu-presen-tatlve
KdmoudM, Pennsylvania, rank;
lug republican of the merchant marine
committee which framed the Mil,
formally announced on the floor that
the section under which the Standard
Oil company, for example, would
share in the government subsidy for
transporting its own goods In lis own
ships would to stricken out bodily.
This, In tho view of western re
publicans, added to It chance of
pusHitge.
Tax Rebate Killed,
Tlated as tho most Important amend
ment to stand up was the Graham
propysal whlrh cut out of the bill the
provision under which shippers, send
ing their goodsnbroad In American
vessels would receive a 6 per cent In
come tax rebate which, In some In
stances, It "was charged would have
enabled some shippers to escape all
payments. It was adopted by a vote
of 66 to 47 after it had been charac
terized by Mr. Graham as "vicious
and extremely dangerous."
Stepping In unexpectedly, Represen
tative Oliver, democrat, Alabama,
presented an amendment, acceptance
of which virtually fixed an upset price
for the sale of the steamship Levia
thlan, the biggest of the government
fleet. This provided that the Ievla
thlan, now being reconditioned, should
not bo sold at a price less than tho
cost' of reconditioning. Precise
figures obtained tonight from the im
propriations committee showed that
this cost was $8,166,000. First de
clared defeated, the Oliver proposal
won, 81 to 78, by a man to man count
as members marched down the aisle,
firaliam Starts Fight.
The fight to riddle the bill -wus be
gun five minute after the actual
reading started. On his feet first,
Mr. Graham put forward an amend
ment to strike out a section permit
ting the shipping board to sell ships
without advertisement or competitive
salo..
A dozen members were eager to
discuss It, but a vote was demanded
and the motion was adopted almost
unanimously.
The other Graham amendment in
creased the rate of interest on un
paid balances for ships bought from
the government fiom not less than
4 per cent to not less than 4 1-4 per
cent. Representative Frcar, repub
lican, Wisconsin, sought to make It
6 per cent flat, but failed.
An amendment by Representative
IJlanton, democrat, Texns, providing
that no government 'employe should
be Interested financially In the pur
chase of government ships was passed
with little opposition.
Out of many offered, Representa
tive Davis, Tennessee, democratic
member of the merchant marine com
mittee, got through an amendment
providing that prospective ship con
structors, borrowing from the ship
ping board revolvingfund. should pay
not less than 4 14 per cent Interest
instead of 2 per cent, as stipulated
in the bill.

Touching brb-flv on the plan to
eliminule tho section dealing witn
siil'Kiily for industrial ships, Mr.
Kdmonds said hn was preparing an
