FIGHTS ANTI-ANARCHIST BILL Senator Bacon Deolares Measure in Present 1 j Form is Unconstitutional. WOULD Bf EXTENSION OF TREASON Deal. Jarlsdlrtloa of Consrfii to Legists with Reference to Attack ;' oa Sovereignly Tkrosgk aa Ofllelal. WA8HIJI0T0N. March 7. On account of tba Indisposition of Mr. West of Mis souri and Mr. Malloryof Florida, who ex pected to apeak on tha pending ship sub sidy bill, that measure was not considered by the senate today. Tba diplomatic and consular appropria tion bill was passed and then the senate took up the measure for the protection of tba president of the United States. Mr. Bacon of Georgia concluded his speech be gun yesterday In opposition to the bill, making an extended constitutional argu ment agalnat It. The senate Mreed to make tha bill tha unfinished business at tba conclusion of consideration of tba ship subsidy bill. A Joint resolution authorizing the pres ident of the United States and inviting the government of Canada to Join In tha form ation of an International commission to ex amine and report upon the diversion of tha waters that are tha boundarlea of tha two countries, was reported favorably from the committee on commerce. Mr. Hoar urged that the measure ought to be considered by the foreign relatione committee, as It opened a very "important and delicate question,". Involving diplomatic procedure. On his motion, It was referred to the com mittee on foreign relations. Adopt Harris' Reaolatloa. A resolution offered by Mr. Harris of Kansas directing the committee On Indian affairs to Investigate the matter of the re moval of certain Creek Indians from the lands assigned to them and to report by bill or otherwise, was adopted.' The senate agreed to a conference with tba house upon the bill providing for the redemption of certain . internal revenue t'amps and, Messrs. Aldrlch .. of Rhode Island, Piatt of Connecticut and Teller ' of Colorado were named as conferees on the part of the senate. On motion of Mr. Hale ' of Maine the aenate then began the con sideration of the diplomatic and consul ap propriation bill. Tbs bill wss read. It carries In round figures 12,000,000 In appro priations. Mr. Bacon of Oeorgla offered an amendment providing that the student In terpreters employed In the legations and consulates in China should be selected In a non-partisan manner and that they should agree to remain In the service for ten years. The amendment was agreed to. Tba bill as amended was then passed. Ths senate resumed consideration of the bill providing for the protection of the pres. Idsnt of the United 8tates. Continuing his speech begun yesterday, Mr. Bacon con tended that the enactment of the bill In Its present form would bs an extension of treason as defined by the authorities. He quoted various writers on law and the con stitution In support of his point Merely because the crime named In tha pending bill was not designated as treason did aot change its character. It practically was made treason by penalty provided and the meana reaortad to to apply the penalty to the' criminal. He indicated his belief that such a provision was unconstitutional, maintaining that treason bad been' defined In the constitution only after long and care ful debate, during which every possible con tingency was considered. ttaeattoa of Jurisdiction. He argued, that the constitution Intended that each man shall be equal before the law and said the remedy for an attack on the president or the killing of the president should be the same as if the crime were committed agalnt an individual. He denied congreaa had Jurisdiction to legislate with reference to an attack on the aoverelgnty of the United States through ths person of aa official. Mr. Bacon maintained that the contention of those who supported the bill was in effect that there was no differentiation between the crime of treason and an assault upon the president, which threatened the exist ence of the government. Ha urged, how ever, that it that was true assassination of the president would be treason. Mr. Spooner of Wisconsin interrupted to say that altbougU tha assault upon a presi dent might be considered aa attack upon the ovsrelgnty of the government It clearly wss within tba power of congress to deal with it, as had been "done In the . pending till.' Mr. Bacon denied the constitutionality of any law which shall Invade our Institu n o OyspopsSa (Stmtpo Tba process of digestion is simply explained. In the mouth, .food Is masticated and mixed with sallT containing- a dlgestant called ptyalln. In the stomach, It Is acted upon by gastric Juice containing pepsin, which digests albuminous foods. In the Intestines, pancreatln is added to digest fats and starches. Indigestion always indicates an insufficient amount of one or all oi these dl gee tan ta. At first thought it seems proper to abstain from foods not easily digested; but reflection shows us that while this affords relief by gllng the weakened organs less to do, it only makes them weaker by giving them less nourishment.

A large num ber of the republican representatives op posed , to the ways and means plan of Cu ban reciprocity neld a private meeting at I o'clock 'this afternoon In the committee room of Mr. William Alden Smith. It was not intended to assemble the full strength of the opposition, but rather to have rep resentativea from' each state delegation Those present numbered about thirty-five. The standing of the members from various states waa fully canvassed and later It waa shown that a majority could be mustered against the ways and means proposition. The meeting did not, however, go Into the various opposition plsns. It waa stated that as between the Tawney rebate plan and the postponement plan the latter was gaining strength. The matter led to an understanding that there would be no ef fort to force a vote next Tuesday night Several plans of compromise were put torwara in a tentative way during the day. but they lacked deflnlteness, and neither side felt disposed to admit that the stage oi compromise had been reached.

MORLAN RAISES JURISDICTION QUESTION yta Plays far laatraetlea af Jary ta Flad far Defeadaat, Bo that Mia meat May Have "Vladleatloa." Judge Baxter of the criminal court yes terday excused the Jury secured for the trial of John B. Meserve, former state treasurer, on a charge of embesilement, until Monday morning as the series of ar guments now being presented will not be finished before then. The arguments are on the points of law raised by the attorneys for Meserve, In the hope of having the indictment returned against tlm by the last grand Jury quashed and the trial ended before any witnesses are put on the stand to testify aa to the de tails of his transactions. Attorney 0. J. Smyth concedes that the former treasurer deposited the $60,000 of permanent school funds in the Union Stock Tarda Nstlonsl bank of South Omaha, aa charsd, but eon'.snda thst the $3,000 inter est paid thereon war Meserve's profit, that the state hsd no title to It and that there fore the only embesilement waa a technical one committed In depositing the fund itself In the bank. Batyth's Wards Like Breok. He began his argument Thursday after noon after objecting to the first question asked the first witness by the prosecution. Mr. Smyth began apeak Ing at about 4 o'clock and continued until court closed at 6. Yesterday morn ing he resumed before 10 o'clock and con tinued until twenty minutes before noon. but the substance of his entire argument was contained In the report previously printed In The Bee, and most of his time yesterday was consumed In' reading the rulings In previous cases more or less slml lar, Judge Baxter having requested at the beginning that the references be furnished in full to enable the courn) to dispose Of the question promptly after the arguments should- be ended. Mr. Smyth was followed by W. S. Morlan of McCook, who Is Meserve's business coun sel. ' Qaestloa af Jarisdletloa. Attorney Morlan has dragged In the queattoa of venue, maintaining that even it the Interest money was embescled It was not embestled In Douglas county, but In Red Willow county, for the reason that Meserve could not become an embezzler until the money waa In his name and that It waa not In his name until credited to his account in the First National bank of McCook, which town Is in Red Willow county. Attorney Smyth shied around' this con tentlon as to Jurisdiction when he made his argument and has assumed the attitude of deprecating Morlan's effort so that should Morlan be successful and the ruling of the court be affected thereby, while Smyth's contention la overruled, be (Smyth) will be In a position to weep over the lost oppor tunlty to "vindicate" the official whom he now struggles to save from being tried at all. Attorney Morlan continued his argument well into the afternoon and aa early ad Journment was taken after the county at torney had spoken briefly, citing some; cases in support or tne contention of the state and paring the way for Deputy Dunn and the attorney general, who is to make the principal argument today. The attendance In the courtroom has dwindled to the Judge, the attorneys In the case and one court bailiff.

NEW YORK, March 7. R. O. Dua A Co.'a Weekly Review of Trade tomorrow will say: Unsettled weather wss the most unsat isfactory part of the business situation, a sudden thaw following a heavy snow fall produced fresheta and floods. Manufacturing- and trannportlns; Interests suffered severely and consumers were urgent for shipment of delayed goods, while great quantities of merchandise became stalled In trtnslt. Preparations for an enormoua spring trsde continue undltntnlKhed. There Is still 4oma uneasiness regarding the labor situation at the coal mines and at Fall River there is disagreement aa to a cut of cloth. Not only Is there no Improvement to be recorded In Iron and steel, but floods in ths Pittsburg region added to the pressure by completely closing many plants and dam aging much costly machinery. Supplies of coke failed to increase, because the rsll ways were badly disorganised, and tha week was one of weak Outputs. The re cent destruction by the elements makes an unusual demand for structural material and on spot business buyers gladly pay premiums of $9 a ton above ll"t price. The situation has become so abnormal that It In impossible to gauge the market by or dinary standards or secure quotations of atiy value for comparative purposes. The encouraging feature is that most grades vt ?'lg Iron are higher In pricea by from 2fte o 60c per ion. Finished products are ac tive. Steel rods sell at tne highest price for many months; bar Iron Is higher; cut nails have advanced and light rails have alao been put up. A favorable feature is the settlement of the wage scale agree ment by the ttnplate mills. It haa been a narrow market for cereals, with price changes few and the govern ment crop report of March 10 on supplies in farmers' hands still hanging over the market. Hog products are slightly weaker and speculation haa naturally been almost absent. Wheat, Including flour, exports for the week sggregate 4,US6,M4 bushels, against 8,234,640 last week and 4.22,518 In the week last year. Wheat exports from July 1, 1901, to date (thirty-six weeks), ag gregate 18,184,267 bushels, against 137.478.20i lust season. Corn exports aggregate 32,- inS hiiahola .aln.t 319 lUU lu.t mrjlr Ann 8.966..137 last year. July i, 1901, to date, corn expnrtea are !M,471,mv Dunels, agalnat IM, 631.735 last season. Raw cotton has continued on Its upward march, aided by bad weather conditions, checking the Interior movement, and shorts nave been forced to cover almost continuously. While a crop equal to last year's Is more generally conceded, the fact that exports are larger ta taken to indi cate that American spinners are short of supplies, reversing the position of two rears ago, wnen roreign manufacturers leld off and lost money. Cotton goods ars very generally strong and tend upward. The outlook in the Fall Kiver print cloth Industry is not settled as yet, wage scale differences constituting a menace to con tinued activity. Woolen' goods are fslrly active, plain dress goods and overcoatings displaying the most interest. Fine wool ens are In limited supply and firmer, with Australian grades tending upward. The boot, shoe and leather trades are exceptions to the more or less general ac tivity In ether Unea. Shipments from east ern irarkets are slightly larger for the week, and 9 per cent ahead of last year, but new demand is quiet and leather shares the dullness, this being reflected In shaded prices In February for hides and for untanned leather. Business failures In the United States for the week number 177, aa against 204 last week, am in this ween last year and ix in 1900, 177 In 1899 and 347 In 1898.

At leading eastern mar kets textiles have felt the quickening of demand and prices hsva strengthened in many lines. The condition of cotton goods particularly is in fact second only to the strength displayed in Iron and steel. All available measures of midwinter trade point to exceptional activity, despite un favorable weather conditions. February clearings aa a whole, notwithstanding re ductions at the metropolis, due to dullness in speculation, are angniiy larger man a year ago.
