FOR SAFETY OF PRESIDENT.
Senator Bacon of Georgia Opposes the
Present Bill.
Washington , March 19. For three
hours yesterday the senate had under
consideration the bill providing for the
protection of the president of the Unit
ed States and for the punishment by
United States courts of those who com
mit assaults on him.
Bacon ( Ga. ) opposed the bill and
Hoar ( Mass. ) and Mason ( Ills. ) sup
ported it. Bacon's argument followed
the lines of his speech delivered ten
days ago. Hoar's speech was largely
legal and constitutional. Ho main
tained the right of the government to
protect itself against assaults upon
Its sovereignty through the president.
Mason made an attack upon anarchy
and its methods and incidentally sharp
ly criticised an amendment to the bill
offered by Bacon. Ho denounced it as
opening the door to special pleading
for the benefit of assassins of the
president. This drew Bacon's fire.
Ho considered Mason's criticism a
personal reflectlbn on himself and re
sented it with heat. An explanation
by the Illinois senator cleared the at
mosphere. Earlier in the day a lively
debate was precipitated by the effort
of Rawllns ( Utah ) to have printed as
n document some Philippine corre
spondence. Eventually the matter was
order printed as requested.

.Thompson and Burnett ( Ala. ) , who
epoko In favor of improvements to

Oleo Bill Given First Place.
Washington , March 19. The Republican -
' lican steering committee of the sen
ate yesterday decided to glvo the first
I > lace in the order of business in the
eenato after disposing of the pending
business to the oleomargarine bill ,
and to allow that to bo followed by
'the Chinese exclusion bill.The com
mittee discussed the question of giving
the Nicaragua canal bill third place
on the calendar , but decided not to
act on that question , inasmuch as it
1s considered probable that the discus-
elon of the oleomargarine and the Chi
nese bills will consume some time ,
STEW/UVT / FIFE ON THE STAND.
Says He Was Intoxicated on Night
of the Murder.
Savannah , Mo. , March 19. When
the trial of Stewart Flfo for the mur
der of Prank W. Klrhnrdson was re
sumed yesterday two of hla Bisters sat
beside him nnd the prisoner held hla
little brother on his lap. The defense
produced a witness who testified that
Fife was at the Richardson house the
night after the shooting. It had been
the theory of the atato that Fife was
the only employe of the Fife-Richard-
son company who did not go to the
residence after the murder. Nearly
all the forenoon was devoted to ovl-
dunce relating to the revolver found In
a sewer recently nnd which the state
tried to prove belonged to Fife nnd
was the weapon with which Richard
son was shot.
Fife took the stand In his own be
half at the night session of court. Flfo
was asked If ho went to Lake Con
trary with Mrs. RlchnrdBon. Ho wild
he went with his sister. He denied
being with Mrs. Richardson In the old
Catholic church yard and explained
his being with her on the old church
stops one night as she explained It In
her testimony.
He was naked about hla movements
on the night of the Richardson mur
der , nnd said :
"I don't remember. I wae at King's
corner , in Mack's saloon , at the pool
hall and nt the Owl club. "
"Were you any nearer the Richard
son house than King's corner that
night before the death of Richard
son ? "
"No , I was not. "
Flfo said ho was so drunk he did
not remember where ho went or what
he drank.

Stand Today.
Chicago , March 19. Woman ar
rayed against woman over the fate of
Dr. Robert E. Gray of Garden City ,
Kan. , produced conflicting features in

frown that expressed the feelings of
the prisoner as ho listened to the dam
aging testimony of Margaret Indiana
Tedford , the nurse who tended Irma
Brown before her death , changed to a
smile when Dr. Frances Rutlcdge , his
former associate , testified In his behalf
in the afternoon , after the state had
rested its case.
"My worst day is over , " remarked
the accused physician , juat before ad
journment , "and tomorrow I will take
the stand myself. I am anxious to get
a chance to tell my story and I feel
confident that I will be able to explain
away the circumstantial evidence that
the prosecution has brought against
me. "

New York , March 19. Mrs. Eloft ,
wife of Mr. Kruger's private secretary ,
sailed for South Africa on Saturday ,

will carry letters from Mr. Kruger
which may have a decialvo effect in
ending the war. The generalization is
an elastic one , but without doubt wel
informed people at The Hague are con
vlnced that negotiations are In prog
ress and peace nearer than ia general
ly supposed.

approximate $1,000,000.
Whether any HVOB were loat was
nest dlllleult to learn. While the con-
lagratlon wns at Its height and after
t had been reduced by the firemen
nnd llro boats rumors were rlfo that
several men perished. It is tolerably
certain that Chief Engineer Scott of
the British Queen wns burned to
loath on her and that a sailor named
Jnnson met the same fate. Ono of
.ho men who escaped nays that ho saw
several men leap Into the water when
.ho steamer became enveloped in flro
nnd ho saw few. If any , of these res
cued. The quartermaster of the ruined
ship said that the crow wore in her
forecastle and ho surmised that if all
escaped they did BO with difficulty.
It is not unlikely that some of the
swarmed about the vessel , will have to |
bo accounted for. The eatlnmted
losses In detail are : Pier , $300,000 ;
British Queen , $400,000 ; cotton and
lighters , $250,000.
The captain of the lighter Tona-
wandai saved hlmsolf , ills wife and
Ills child by pushing a cotton halo' '
Into the water , placing his family and '
himself upon It nnd paddling hla' '
strange llforaft into the river. I
The stiff wind which had blown all
day gave impetus to the fire , whoso '
glare reddened the North river for i
a long distance. J
The fire started about 8:35 : o'clock
and by 11:30 : it was well under con
trol. The British Queen , atill ablaze ,
was towed out into the river. Three
lighters , all afire , were directed down
the river by tugs , but owing to the
wind and current they once or twice
came near setting flro to property on
the New York side. Two of thprn
finally drifted to the east Ashore of
Governor's ialand , aottlng flr6 to the
new landing pier there.
The army ofllcera' quarters were
greatly endangered and the soldiers
stationed on the ialand were employed
in fighting the flames. In a few hours
the danger had passed.
When the excitement attending the
flro had subsided the Hoboken police
reported that five 'longshoremen were
in the hoapltal there suffering from
burns. One of them , Patrick Huaaey ,
Is almost sure to die , and the child of
the captain of the Tonawanda Is In
in a dangerous condition.
