-SENATOR i BAILEY IN FIST FIGHT
m-
I a"
Texas Statesman and a Correspond-
ent Have Mix-Up : at Capitol
Senator Joseph W. Bailey of Texas
and W. Sinker Manning , Washington
I
correspondent . of the New York Times ,
had a fist fight in the Senate corridor
Thursday afternoon. Bailey used
Manning's umbrella to wallop the
scribe. Neither antagonist suffered
any serious injury. The only damage
was to the umbrella.
The clash grew out of an article in
the Times under a Washington date
line which said that Senator Aldrich ,
' Republican leader in the tariff debate ,
had a number o'f followers among
Democrats "who may faithfully be set
down under the classification of 'Al-
drich men' , " and that "they are head-
ed by that distinguished'son of Texas ,
Joseph Weldon Bailey. " Bailey read
this story on the floor of the Senate
and then denied the allegations. In
making his denial he launched into a
denunciation of newspapers in general
and of the Times correspondent in
particular , whom he specifically called
a liar , a whelp and a coward. When
Manning later met Bailey and started
to explain that he did not write the
article the mix-up came.
REVOLT IN PERU IS QUELLED.
President Captured and Freed , De-
' feats the Rebel Forces.
The palace President Leguia in
Lima , Peru , was attacked by revolu
tionary forces and the loyalty of the
troops was all that saved the chief ex
ecutive from being deposed from of
fice. The revolutionists , after hard
fighting , succeeded in entering the pal-
ace and making the President prisoner ,
tmt : the loyal soldiers , after recovering
from the panic into which the unex
pected attack threw them , advanced
upon' the rebels and rescued Leguia
unharmed. The President , restored to
power , immediately took charge ) of put-
ling down the disorder. The fighting
i lasted for some time , but resulted in
I the complete routing of the revolution-
, ary forces. Later Leguia rode through ,
the streets , which were closely guard
ed by cavalry , and assured the towns-
I people and tradesmen the danger was
I passed. ,

HOOSIER BANKER ENDS HIS LIFE
Jesse Fletcher of a Well-Known
Family Kills Himself.
Jesse Fletcher , a wealthy business
man of Indianapolis , Ind. , committed
suicide at Turtle Lake , near Alpena ,
.
Mich. , where there is a widely known
fishing and hunting club. Mr. Fletcher
belonged to one of the most prominent
of the old Indiana families. For many
years it has been important in the
financial development of the State , and
the Fletchers were among the first
bankers to co-operate in the beginning
of business in the Middle West. Jesse
Fletcher was a capitalist and interest-
ed financially in many directions. The
amount of his fortune is not known ,
but it is not believed that it was loss
. of money that led to his suicide. He
was a man of middle age , unmarried
and of retiring disposition.

SENTENCED FOR MINING FRAUDS
" ' 1'0 Queens" Promoters Get Prison
Term in lUio > souri.
Frank H. Horn , S. H. Snyder and
Raymond P. May were sentenced to
serve a year and a day in the United
States prison at Leavenworth , Kan. ,
and to pay a fine of $500 each , and
John E. Horn was fined $500 in the
Federal court in Kansas City for fraud
in promoting the "Two Queens" mine
in Arizona. E. S. Horn , the other de
fendant , who collapsed when the ver-
dict was returned on May \ 18 , was still
too ill to appear for sentence. He will
be sentenced later. The United States
District Attorney made a plea to the ,
court for leniency on behalf of John
E. Horn , who is only 22 years old ,
saying his youtbxshould be considered
as an extenuating condition. The
judge accepted this suggestion and
said the young man's punishment
should be only a fine and costs , pro-
vided the fine was paid at once.

LABOR LEADERS CONVICTED.
Madden , Pouchot and Boyle Found
Guilty of Conspiracy.
A compromise verdict , inflicting a
penalty of $500 each on Martin B.
Madden , Fred A. Pouchot and M. J.
Boyle , the labor leaders found guilty
of conspiracy to extort money from the
Joseph Klicka company , was Saturday
returned by the Chicago jury in whose
hands thefate of the three defendants
had rested since Thursday afternoon.
Before entering the courtroom to an-
nounce their verdict to the court the
jurors had agreed among themselves
not to talk for publication. Despite
this it was authoritatively learned that
the verdict was a compromise , growing
out of a deadlock ballot which stood
7 to 5 for conviction of the three , men.
Forty ballots were taken by the panel.
On the principle that he has
"scotched" the snake of graft "but not
killed it" in securing the verdict of
I "guilty , " State's Attorney Wayman has
braided fresh quirts for the castiga-
tion of Madden : and his lieutenants. As
soon as it was announced that after
forty-six hours of battle in the jury
room of Judge McSurely's court the
jury had established a record in labor
cases in Chicago by finding a verdict
of guilty , albeit by virtue of a com-
promise eliminating the penitentiary
from the punishment , Mr. Wayman or-
dered Madden \ rushed to trial on an-
other of the indictments standing
against him and carrying a peniten-
tiary sentence in the event of ultimate
conviction. Furthermore , it was an-
nounced at the state's attorney's office
that evidence will be presented to the
Cook county grand jury with the ob-
ject of securing the indictment of cer-
tain witnesses for the defense in the
trial just closed on charges of per-
jury.

- Two Decades.
For the first time in two decades
the mills of the Pittsburg district
were run full turn Monday. The Car-
negie steel mills and the American
Steel & Wire Company , as well as oth-
er large concerns , did not permit mills
in the Pittsburg district to cool Me
morial day , and the attendance at pic
nics was visibly decreased. An offi
cial of the American Steel & Wire
Company admitted that there had not
been a time in years when the store-
rooms of the company were so nearly
empty. The Carnegie Company also
reports no stock in the warehouses.
One concern in Pittsburg has orders
for 100,000 kegs of nails for hurried
delivery and has _ less than 10,000 kegs

a series of reports now appearing in

Bolce , who made a secret itinerary of

dent and at other places attending lec
tures. He asserts that in many class-
rooms it is being taughtthat the
Decalogue is no more sacred than the
syllabus ; that the home as an insti
tution is doomed ; that there are no
absolute evils ; 'that democracy is a
failure and tha Declaration of Inde
pendence only spectacular rhetoric ;
that the change from one religion to
another is like getting a new hat ;
. that to social climbers children are
incumbrances. Such is , in substance ,
the analysis of the writer's conclu-
sions , given by the editor of the maG"

MUSIC SOOTHES IIE SICK.
Hospital Patients Orently HeneJlted
by a Ivlml-lleartetl : Player. .
The gifts that some of us possess : ; for
doing good to others was strikingly
shown a few days ago in an uptown _ "
hospital. A student who was an ex- , <
pert mandolin player had called on a
friend who was a patient in the Insti-
tution , and at the sick : man's request
he had brought his instrument. The
patient's room was one of many that
opened off a reception room. Among the
patients on the same floor was a suf
fere from the morphine habit , who at
frequent ( } intervals had to be given a
potion to quiet his nerves. As the time
approached for him to receive this he
would become so nervous that he
.
would almost rave. Not far away was
a young woman suffering from a ner-
vous breakdown. She was rarely at
rest.
Suddenly the first notes of Mendels
sohn's "Spring Song" broke the quiet
of the hospital. Mellowed by distance ,
the music of the mandolin , played by
a master hand , sounded like that of a
violin. The effect on the patients was
noticeable at once. The morphine user
who had been begging for his potion.
paused to listen and forgot the craving
for the drug. It was the same with the
young woman. Instead of picking at
the counterpane she lay perfectly still ,
fearful of missing a note from the
sweet melody that floated in through
her open door.
Then came "Home , Sweet Home , "
and as some of the patients lay with
closed eyes from -under many a lid
there stole a tear as the sufferers
thought of the homes to which some of
them might never return. Again and
again did the musician favor his eager
audience with selections. classical or
popular. Even the nurses and physi- .
clans felt soothed and benefited as the
result of the efforts of the obliging stu-
dent. The thanks of his score of hear-
ers shone from their eyes as the young
man left the room of his friend and
to\k the elevator for the first floor.
"That did our patients more good
than lots of the medicine they take , "
remarked ; ; : one of the physicians. "It is
a pity that some rich man does not
provide enough money so that the sick
and injured in our hospitals could be
soothed at frequent intervals by as
