MEXICO C!TV, Deo. 9. At tho session
of tho International American conferenco
today tho delegates of Nicaragua, Hon
duras, Costa Itlca, Kcundor, Guatemala and
Salvador presented a motion to tho effect
that tho president of tho conference ha em
powered to send a me.isugo to the president,
director general, directors ond employes
of tho Buffalo 1'an-Amerlcan exposition
ond to tho people of Buffalo In general con
gratulating them Upon tho exposition's suc
cess. Tho motion wos referred to the com
mltteo on federal welfare. When proposals
for a Pan-American bank wero taken up
tho report from tho committeo was read
rejecting tho amendment of Chill, which
was that tho nations Interested glvo tho
bank nn annual subsidy of $100,000 gold for
llvo years.
Augusto Matte of Chill then presented
another amendment, as follows:
That there ho established In New York
or'somo other Important commercial cen
ter u bank of tho character In question
and Hint the.H.ild bank be aided bv all
the republics or America In every form
compatible with their Internal legislation,
either by way of annual subsidies for a
limited period or of exemption from tax
ation, or In nny other manner considered
expedient.
In supporting this nmendment Mr. Matte
said that If tho proposed Pan-American
railway was to bo subsidized ho could moo
no reason why tho Fan-American bank
should not be also subsidized.
Pablo Mnceilo of Mexico explained that
tho legislative dilllcultlcs In this matter
wos organic nnd not merely accidental.
Ho, said that Senator Davis had ' as
sured him that tho United Stntcs would
novor countenance a stnto-aldcd bank. It
seemed to him, therefore, unwise, to adopt
recommendations which thoy know beforo
hand wero certain to bo rejected by ono or
more of tho natlous represented.

SCENE IS A DRAMATIC ONE
(Continued from First Page.)
posed tho lucomo tax, had not been read
out of tho democratic party.
The holding of such views by northern
men, no matter how' diverse, did not endan
ger the position of certain political loaders,
nnd consequently thoy wero lmmuno from
nttuck. But when a southorn man, said
Mr. McLnurln, tried to get the benefit of
tho tariff for his people those whoso polit
ical career might be ended by thu success
of his efforts were ready to crush and hu
miliate' him.
lie had contended that If tho tnrlff wero
n robbery his section should sharo In tho
booty. Upon tho Issue of thnt speech ho had
Inter gone Into a campaign In South Caro
lina, and although his democracy had been
attacked upon tho stump tho pcoplu of his
stato had endorsed him. Ho declared that
during that campaign calumny, falsehood
and trickery never beforo equalled In Amer
ican politics hud been employed. Now tho
prlnclplo charge against him was that dur
ing thu McKlnley administration .ho had
been "bought by patronuge," nnd that ho
had renewed his former contract with
President IlooBovelt. Entertaining tho high
personal regard that he did for both tho lato
president and his accessor, Mr. McLaurln
snld It would bo unnecessary for him to
say thnt neither would ho stoop to so Igno-
bio an act.
Anmvcr the ClinrKf.
It wsb true that nn unfortunate condition
of affairs had ex 3 ted In his ntatq, nnd that
no nan recommcnueu gnou men tor omces
becnuso ho did not desire to seo a repeti
tion of tho horrlblo affair nt Lakovlllo whon
a negro postmaster had been burned to
death.
Ho. had voted for tho war with Spain,
and declared that In the same spirit In
which ho had cost that voto ho felt that
ho was compelled to support tho adminis
tration thnt conducted It. Ho still thought
that tho conduct of tho war should have
been non-partisan, and during Its progress
he had never heard from President Mc
Klnlcy's lips a word concerning party ad
vantage. Mr. McLaurln paid a high tributo
to tho lato president, whom ho character
ized ns a "broad statesman nnd Christian
gentleman."
While without official knowlcdgo of tho
charges brought against him by his demo
cratic colleagues, from tho newspapers ho
understood that tho principal charges wero
that ho hnd not opposed tho ratification
of tho treaty of peace with Spain, thnt ho
had uphold tho administration In Its efforts
to restore order In tho Philippines nnd to
that ond had voted for nn Increase In tho
standing army, and that ho was In favor of
the upbuilding of the American merchant
marine.
filnrlen In the Acensnt Ions,
"If these nro tho only charges," said he,
dramatically, "they arc truo nnd I glory In
them."
He said ho had not wished to voto against
his party on the question of ratification of
tho peace treaty and hnd It not been for
tho reopening of hostilities In the Philip
pines ho wpuld have deferred to tho opinion
of his colleagues. "But," ho declared, "tho
dictates of reason nnd cousclenco should
not bo stilled by the party lash."
With bitter words Mr. McLaurln thon
proceeded to excoriate tho now leaders of
tho democracy, who, ho said, had guided
tho party through Its destruction during
thu last six years nnd wero trying to
crucify those who would seek to druw tho
democratic party back to Its old nlleglanco.
Ho still proposed he snld, to voto In his
Judgment for what ho believed to bo along
tho lines of democratic principles, but did
not proposo to place himself against a
proposition which ho believed to bo for
tho best interests of tho pcoplo simply bo
catrao it was advocated by republicans.
Will .Not Ho Driven Out.
In conclusion Mr. McLnurln snld ho did
not proposo to bo driven from his own
party nor to bo forced Into nfllltatlon with
tlfu party with which ho did not caro to
ally himself and on great public questions
ho would net according to tho dlctntes of
his own conscience and best Judgment.
When Mr McLaurln took his scat Mr.
Jones of Arkansas took tho Moor. Some
of tho statements made by Mr. McLnurln
Mr. Jones considered a rellectldn upon him
self and said he desired to offer a state
ment concerning tho incident to which Mr.
McLnurln had 'referred. At tho extra eos
slon of tho senate last spring ho had been
aBked by tho caucus niTlcer for the list of
senators who wore to bo summoned to n
caucus and Mr. McLaurln's name being
montlnned ho (Jones) had said he, himself,
would seo tho senator from South Carolina,
"I mot him In tho clonk room," said Mr.
Jones, "and, recalling tho fact that ho
had not nttonded a democratic caucus for
more than two yoars, I asked him what hla
status was. .Ho replied that his relations
with tho party wero such that he thought
It would be embarrassing for him to enter
tho democratic caucus. I then ald to
him: 'You do not wish to be Invited,
then?' and ho replied, 'Certainly.'
June nnil Tlllniiiii Talk.
"As to tho charge of ulterior motive on
my part," continued Senator Jones, "I nm
content to treat It with tho contempt It
deserves. It Is a notorious fact that cvory
ono seems to understand, except the sen
ator from South Carolina, that there has
boon no demoi ratio caucus at this session
ot congress. I have no hesitancy, bow-
evcr.'ln saying that In a revent conversa
tion with a leading member on tho other
side I snld to him that t did not think the
democratic caucus could undertake to pro
vldo committeo assignments for tho sen
ator from South Cnrolina."
Mr. Tillman of South Carolina was on
his feot when Mr. Jones concluded. In
his characteristic way he nnnounced that
whilo his name had not been mentioned,
ho realized that ho was tho enmo of it nil.
Ho would not nt this tlmo mnko nn ex
tended reply.
Briefly ho reviewed tho controversy be
tween himself nnd Senator McLnurln which
led to the Joint tender of their resignations
to tho governor of South Carolina last
spring nnd told of tho governor's sugges
tion that tho resignations he withdrawn.
('oiiNiilriicy In ii Dreiiin.
Mr. Tillman snld ho contended that the
governor was simply "a box Into which ho
had put letters for tho legislature" and
that thoy could not undo their net, but Mr.
McLnurln hnd hastened to withdraw his
letter. Mr. Tillman snld ho had exnmlned
the record and thnt of about 200 casos In
tho history of the government whero sen
ators had resigned Mr. McUaurln enjoyed
tho enviable distinction ot being tho only
ono who had withdrawn his resignation
after ottering It. As to Mr. McLaurln's chnrgo
of conspiracy to humiliate him by barring
htm from tho democrntle caucus, Mr, Till
man called attention to tho fact thnt he
had not been In Washington during the
extra session of tho sennto last spring.
"This conspiracy," he. said, "Is n drenm
conjectured up hy hltn. It Is a creation of
his own brain."
I.t-millly of tin Iliii'Mtlnn.
Mr. McLnurln made no reply to' Mr. Till
man, but In replying to Senator Jones snld
that ho did not desire thnt thero should
bo anything personal In his chnrgo that
thero had been nn "ulterior purpose" in
nnythlng he had done.
Mr. Hoar ot Massachusetts ad.' eased
himself to tho kgullty of tho designations
which the South Carolina senators had
sent to tho governor of their state. Ho
declared that thu resignation ot a legisla
tive ofllco vacated thnt olllce at once und
ho doubted whether such resignations could
bo withdrawn. Ho said Spcakor lllaluo had
hold so on ono occnslon In tho house, con
trary to tho English notion thnt a legisla
tive olllce cannot be resigned. He said that
n man could not bo kept in ofllco against
his will and raised a laugh by observing
that In his opinion neither of tho South
Cnrollun senntors had n right to addrcsa
tho sennto if tho statements by Mr. Till
man wero correct.
'I'll I in. I n Iteiicutn II Im Clinlli'iiKO.
Mr. Tillman said he had been ot tho snmo
opinion hlnibelf nnd In withdrawing his
resignation from the governor of tho state
ho added "If It was lawful to do so." Ho
buggestcd that tho Judiciary committeo look
Into the matter, ns he should enjoy noth
ing so much as washing the "dirty linen"
ut home.
Jumping to his feet Mr. McLaurln de
clared lu ringing tones that he waB ready
to meet his colleague at nny plnco or at
nny tlmo for tho discussion of tho Issues
between them. Thcrcupou, In most dra
matic fashion, Mr. Tillman challenged his
collcaguo to resign on tho spot. "Lot us
draw up tho papers now," said ho, "and
then tender them to this man (pointing to
tho presiding olllcer) and that- will set
tle It."
Mel.iuniii Kill In to Accept.
All eyes wero turned upon Mr. McLaurln,
but tho latter did not. rlso from his scat
or mako reply.
Mr. Hoar, explaining In detail tho oc
casion upou which Speaker Blaino hnd held
a resolution Immediately -vacated a seat
In tho house, said a resolution for the ex
pulsion of n member from South Carolina
wns about to bo voted upon, nnd tho mem
ber knowing that tho resolution would lo
adopted sent his resignation to tho chair
with tho Intention of addressing tho houso
aud then offering It beforo tho voto on tho
resolution was taken.
A-i soon as Speaker Blulno saw tho nature
of tho communication sent to him he im
mediately declared tho seat vacant, thus
putting nn end to nil furthor proceedings.
Mr. Hoar contended that If the fncts bearing
upon tho case of tho South Carollnn senators
had been correctly stated It was doubtful
whether they wero entitled to seats upon
tho lloor of tho senate nt this time. Ho
thought tho committeo on privileges nnd
elections should Inqulro Into tho matter.
IiixInIh on .lolut IteNlKiilltlon,
Mr. Tillman snld If his colleague would
prepare any document that would vacate
his seat ns well as his (Tillman's) ho would
bo elnd to slisn It. As Ioiil- ns ho retire.
scnted the peoplo on tho lloor. ho snld Inn
conclusion, ho proposed to represent them
honestly nnd not In n fashion which was a
dlsgraco to his state. Mr. Lodge at this
point nnnounced tint while tho resignations
wero preparing ho would movo that tho sen
nto go Into oxecutivo session.

my health began to glvo out and I loot from

"I gradually got worso Instead ot better.
It was discovered that, when I did work

In splto of all I could do. It was, ot

LOS ANOKLES, Cnl., Dec. 9. II . J.
'Fleishman, cashier of the Farmers' nnd
Merchants' bank of this city, has disap
peared with n sum of the bank's money
which Vlco President H. W. Hellmnn es
timates at $100,000. Tho shortage wns ills
covered today. Fleishman has not been
seen nlnco 9 a. m. Sunday morning. At that
hour ho was nt his club. Ho notified tho
bank pcoplo that ho wns 111 Saturday morn
ing and would not be nt his desk. Nothing
wns thought of tho mntter at tho time.
When Fleishman failed to report today his
accounts wero gone over and tho shortage
discovered. Tho exact amount has not yet
been ascertained.
Flclshmnn hnd been cashier nnd assist
ant cashier of the Fanners' and Merchants'
bank for many yenrs. He began work for
the bank when a boy, lu 1875. Ho wns under
bond with a suioty company for $30,000. In
addition to this ho hnd real estate and
personal property In this city sufficient, In
tho opinion of 'Mr. Hellmnn, to protect tho
bank from tho loss of a dollar.
Fleishman married the daughter ot A. J.
Harrcll, a wealthy cattleman ot Vlsnlla,
but was divorced some time ngo. He Is a
man of 42 years of age, medium build nnd
smooth face.
No Vnlhl lixeuic.
Tho Farmers' and Merchants' bank, of
which I. W. Hellmnn is president nnd II.
W. Hellmnn Is vice president, Is tho oldest
nnd strongest bank In southern California.
Its capital Is $500,000, with n surplus ot
$1,000,000 nnd deposits of $5,000,000. H. W.
Hellmnn snld of 1'lclslinian:
"Fleishman had no valid excuse for tak
ing tho money. He has property enough to
realize tho amount ho has taken from tho
bank. He was always consldeied a mnn of
fine habits and unimpeachable Integrity.
Wc nro nt a complete loss to nccouut for
his action. Tho bank is amply protected
and will not lose n cent. Wo have not tho
slightest Idea ot his whereabouts. It Is
probable that ho left Saturday after tele
phoning tho bank thnt ho would not be
down. Of course, with 'such n start, It may
bo somo tlmo boforo ho Is located. How
ever, wo nro not worrying about tho money,
since wo havo bond nnd collateral sufllclent
to protect us fully."

bank of Los Angeles, mado tho following
statement to n representative of tho Asso
ciated Press regarding tho defalcation of

"Tho fact that we havo been robbed of
$100,000 cuts no figure. Tho bank will go ,
on ns usual and will not bo In tho least 1
Handicapped by the loss or such a sum,
which, whllo large, docs not affect tho
capital of tho concern nt all.
'i nm greatly grtoved and disappointed
In tho mnn. He has been lu our employ tor
over twenty years, and, of course, was
looked upon ns one of tho best men In
our servlco or ho would not havo had the
position so long. I have made up my mind
to prosecuto him to tho end should ho bo t
captured. Wo have wired overy section of
the country nnd Mexico, nnd I havo every !
hope that ho will bo captured eventually.
Thero will bo no compromise. The bank
Is looked upon ns one of tho model banks
of this country. I wont over the books
two weeks ngo nnd everything wns straight,
so we nro reasonnbly certain that tho
money was taken within tho Inst fow days.
I cannot but believe tint thero Is n womnn
In tho case somuwhere. t
"I feel certain that tho defalcation wns
not mado to cover up prlvato speculative
losses."
