CHINESE EXCLUSION TAKES THE FLOOR Senator Fairbanks Supports Bill on Qronnds that Government Mast rrotert Its Labor Anjalast Cheap Competition. WASHINGTON, April 6. After passing the Indian appropriation bill today thi senate considered the Chinese exclusion measure for nearly three hours. The prin cipal speech of the session was made by Senator Fairbanks of Indiana in support of the ' bill. Ho analysed Its provisions to demonstrate that they were not In contra vention of our treaty with China and dis cussed at length the right of congress to enact exclusion legislation. He maintained that It waa a cardinal principle of this government to protect Its labor against such low-priced labor as would come to -tfce Vnlted States from China. An extended debate upon some of the pro visions' of the pending bill followed Mr. Falrbank's apeecb. Mr. Oalllnger of "New Hampshire and Mr. Piatt of Connecticut indicated their belief that the provisions of the measure relating to the exempted classes wore In contravention of our treaty Obligations to China. Mr. Lodge, Mr. Pen rose and Mr. Fairbanks combatted this view, the supporters of the measure main taining that Its provisions were drawn clearly within the treaty obligations of this country. - .- Mr. Hansbrough offered two amendments to the Indian appropriation bill, both of which were adopted, providing for a heating system and an electric light plant In the Indian school at Fort Totten, N. D and authorising the secretary of the Interior to permit the construction of a bridge across Devil's lkke.in North Dakota. 'Mr. Quarlee of. Wisconsin offered an amen4rant providing .that .thet secretary of tbe'loterlor mighj use $5,000 p'f. the agpo nrlatlon for contingencies of the fhdlan ervlcs for the purpose of Introducing the willow Industry among the Indians..

Mr. Piatt of Connecticut insisted that the United States could not afford to dis regard l&s treaties with any' nation,' par tic ularly with a nation which was unable to defend Itself. He desired to know It the definitions In the bill of. the excepted case were satisfactory to China and whether they were within the scope of our treaty with China. He said those definitions were fixed In this bill entirely arbitrarily and he thought China might have a right to com' plain seriously of the spirit of the United States In construing the treaty. ' Concerning the Importation of Chinese women Into this country for Immoral pur poses, to which reference had been wade, Mr. Oalllnger suggested' that conditions among other people than Chinese were very deplorable In San Francisco. Similar conditions existed, according to authorities. in Boston and New York and It was not necessary, he said, to go far from the dome of the capttol here In Washington to find gross Immorality.

Mr. Taylor of Ohio, from the committee on elections, 'presented the report on the Horton-Butler contested election caso from the Twelfth Missouri district, which de clared the seat vacant. The minority were given three weeks within which to file 114 report. The bouse then resumed hearing on the exclusion bill. It was arranged that the debate should continue for two hours on each side. Mr. Qrosvenor of Ohio asked and secured leave to print In the Record his reasons for opposing the provision in the minority bill to prohibit the use of Chinese sailors on American ships. Mr. Otjen f Wisconsin supported the ma Jorlty bill. He asserted no Ill-will toward the Chinese empire prompted the proposed legislation. It was expressive of a purpose simply "to maintain our high order and standard of citizenship and to ' protect American labor from the competition of a low ciasa of laborers, who in our body poll tic would beebme an undigestlble mass. The admission of such people to our coun try would be a flagrant violation of the principle of protection. .The general debate was closed and . the bouse at 4:30 p. m. adjourned.

HIRSCI1Y WINS HANDICAP Hit Last Competitor Goes Oat on Fifty Second Bird of Bhootoff. HEIKES MAKES SENSATIONAL KILLS lilts a Herd One. bat It (sees Over Line Winner Has Net Missed a Bird "lace the Toerne meat Began. KANSAS CITY, April 6. H. C. Hirschy, with a handicap of twenty-nine yards, today won the Great American Handicap add thus became the champion wing shot of America. The last man to stand up with htm In the sbootoff of the fourteen men who had clean scores yesterday was C. O. Spencer of St. Louis, also a twenty-nine-yard man, who finally failed to kill his fifty-third bird, a towering outgoer. i Spencer will receive sec ond money, R. O. Helkes of Dayton, O., third; J. D. Pollard, Chicago, fourth, and J. L. Owen of Cushlng. Okl., fifth. The race, which was for twenty-five birds, proved to be one of the most sensational In the annals of shooting tournaments. The shootoff today began with bright and clear weather, but with a hard wind blowing.- In the second round two men dropped, a third missed out In the third, three lost in tho fourth, two more n the seventh., one. In ths eleventh and another ' In the fourteenth. Fred Gilbert' 6 Spirit "Lake, la., was ofie of the first men to qull arid Helkes, after mak ing many aensatlonal shots lost his thirty first. Thla left Spencer and Hirschy alone In the race. They killed their birds with ease and reg ularity and soon passed the record mark for straight kills of 34, set by Bates in 1900. Hlrschy's shooting was steadier than Spencer's on the last rounds, and many picked him for the winner after the fortieth bird had been killed. Both men were straight up to the fifty-second, bird. The fifty-third was a towering outgoer. Spencer shot first and although bo hit It the bird fell dead out of bounds. Hlrschy's fifty third waa an ordinary right quarterer. He killed it with his first barrel, but used the second to make aure. Hirschy had not only won the Grand American Handicap, but he bad placed to his record a score of seventy-eight birds for this event and a grand total of 102 .for the week, having grassed every one since the tournament be gan on Monday morning. Admirers Carry Him Away. When Hirschy killed his last bird his ad mirers swarmed around him and bore hlin from the 'field on their shoulders. Today fourteen men competed In the last of the four days' race for the wing shot championship. The winner will not only become champion shot of the United States, but will receive the handsome trophy cap tared last yeir by t. C. Griffith of Paicoag, R. I., and $688 as ths portion of the prize money. The balance of the $11,401 prlie money will be divided among the remaining sixty-two high guns. The shoot has proved the greatest ever held by the association and perhaps brought together tbe most Imposing array of cracks ever convened. At the close of the first day's shooting on Wednesday 143 men had straight scores of eight birds. Most of tbe weak ones and many of those with national reputations missed their birds. The latter Included T. W. Morfrey of Queens, L. I., the winner of the 1894 shoot; O. R. Dickey of Boston, who captured tbe trophy In 1896, and Thomas A. Marshall of Kelthsburg, 111., who became the American champion In 1898 and again In 1899. On the third day E. O. Griffith, the present holder of the trophy, allo'fairea to fnaXi'Vclean score etfd J. R ' Fulord of Utlca, N. T., the 1898 winner, and C. W. Budd of Des Moines, la., lost a bird or two. At the close of the second day only forty-four men cime out with straight scores of sixteen birds to their record. When the full twenty-five rounds had been shot yesterday there remained but thirty-three with clean scores. Then came the shootoff. When darkness prevented further work last evening nineteen men had missed out on a cbancs for the first money, leaving fourteen with perfeet scores. , These fourteen, who began the final race this morning, follow: R. W. Cool, Aledo, III.; Guy V. Derlng, Columbas, Wis.; O. 8. Spencer, St. Louis; G. B. D. Darby, Philadelphia; R. O. Helkes, Dayton, O. ; George A. Roll, Blue Island, 111.; L. J. Squler, Cincinnati; M.

Two keya to each bog were Issued, the one being held by the legislative agent of the company, tbe other by the corrupt agent of the members of the municipal assembly. "Through tbe action of tbe courta the pas sage of tbe ordinanoe was prevented. Tbe $136,000 corruption fund waa demanded by tbe legislators under the claim that they bad done their duty, all they had agreed to do, but the company refused to honor their claim. The investigation of this has led to a number of Indictments connected with the attempted purchase ot this fran chise, under one of which the defendant baa after a fair trial been convicted and sen tenced to three years in ths penitentiary, and another has become a fugitive from Justice, thus confessing his guilt In the transaction. Men of lllerh itaadla Involved. "Tbe evidence shews us that there are in this city) men of seeming great respectabil ity, directors In large corporations and prominent In business and social circles, who have not hesitated to put up money for the purpose of bribing through the as sembly measures in which they were in terested. When called before our body soms have added to the offense of bribery the crime of perjury and only escaped the Ignominy attaching to their Infamous con duct by reason of the fact that the evi dence, though satisfying our minds, would not be admissible In the trial courts. While legal evidence may be larking to bring upon them the penalty of their aots, yet they are morally convicted and damned by their connection with such debauchery. Some of these are aa guilty as thoss sgalnst whom Indtctments have been returned, tbe only difference being that they have been more Successful in covering their tracks." No namea are mentioned in connection sith theae charges of fraud. As a remedy for ths present conditions of ths municipal assembly, ths grand Jury suggests that the method of selecting members of the bouse of delegates should be changed so that they may bs chosen by the city at large.

I - ROURKE'S MEN ALL RIGHT Verdiot of tbe Crowd tt First Exhibition Game of the Season. PLAYERS SHOW SPEED AND G000 FORM Shortstop Joe llelan and Utile Peter Rnraf at Third Make Good with the Fans at the Be-elaalne-. An exhibition of slow, awkward, stiff Jointed base ball playing, to be expected after a winter's fattening ease, was not wbst confronted the fans who went out td Vinton street perk yesterday afternoon to greet tbe new Rourke family at Its first bousewsrmlng. Instead there was a good, clean game of ball, with only two errors, and after nine Innings of play the Omaha leaguers had defeated the Originals by a score of 2 to 1. How these players, some of whom had actually not been In a suit before since last September, managed to get out and show the game they did la still a puxzle to the spectators, but they did It, and everyone was sstlsfled. The Originals played bounc ing good ball, as the tally Indicates, and the event was altogether a satisfying one. This afternoon the same teams will play again, and the game will be railed at 3 o'clock sharp. Aside from Its features .so .a contest, the game yesterday was Intended especially as a vehicle for tbe opening exhibition of "Pa" Rourke's men, snd In this tt wss very successful. Twelve tnen altogether were waltzed through their paces before an admiring congress, and the general opin ion formulated on this one workout seemed to be flattering to Rourke. Dolan and Bnrg la It. Only half a dozen of the members ot the last year's team are back, and especial Interest wss felt In the new players. Two of these made an especial hit. They were Bhortstop Joe Dolan and little Peter Bur. who played third base, because Hlckey did not arrive In town till too late to mix In the game. Dolan only bad two chances at ground work during the game, but his speed on those occasions 'was so fascinating that the fane were spellbound. Joe has an arm mo tion In bis throw fo first base that simply cannot be fol'owed with the eye and you never really know where tbe ball is until It smacks Into Cat's glove. On the bag and fly work, too, Joe proved eminently satis factory, but he failed to make one hit. Burg caught the crowd before the game had started by his size and his shape. Pete is Just a pocket edition ot Phil King, the famous Princeton foot ball player and later coach. He carries around with him as neat and well-muscled a little body as was ever seen, but he Is about five feet high and brosd, though anything but fat, for his legs are big knots, not bags of flesh. That ahape fixed Burg, his activity on third helped It along and his three-bagger in the fourth cinched It. It was the only real exciting hit of tbe day, and the way Pete made It good for three sacks added to the enthusiasm. Cheers were his lot every time be came to bat. Pitchers Closely Watched. The pitchers were closely watched. Owens threw for . five Innings, Rlaley for two snd Graham tor the rest. None of them put on much steam, but Rlsley has some fun with his peculiar style of de livery that made him popular. Gondlng caight seven Innings, when he gave way to Reed, a new one, who looked a good actor. - As for the game Itself, the main trouble was that. the Omaha -.leaguera did not hit all that was expected, but. of course, none of them has bis stick eyes yet. Pitcher Scully threw a good game for the Originals and his aupport waa very good also. Stone, one of the league team men, was loaned to tbe Originals and made a hit and their only run. Hlckey will be In the game today at third. Several pitchers will be tried out and two or three of the - catchers. Tbe playert are all highly pleased with the grounds, which look vastly different from their appearance at the close of last ses son. The eeore. OMAHA. AB. R. H. O. A. E.
