X Mr. Abbott said-the bill was a dangerous - Instrument and should never become a law. ' "It strikes at the secrecy of the ballot." he. said, "and will prevent that independent, part of a. party which holds the party la liar; to nominate good men, from participating In the pri mary. The next step will be to compel a voter to swear who he has voted for at the last - election."

The standing .committee on revenue In the senate met In secret session tonight and arbitrarily refused to allow Tax Commis sioner Fleming and others to appear before It and make certain arguments. Senator Brown, chairman of the committee, aald no decisive action was taken on the bill. Mr. Flcnrfng desired, lo suggest the. wis dom of fixing November X as the time for placing the revenue bill dtt' effect Instead of September 1, as Is provided, If It passeo. He " makes Ills assessment September H,' and If the bill should take effect on tbo first he would be unable to ascertain what the state board assessiaent would be, the result working a serious hardship. , Mr. Fleming was advised by Senator Hall In Omaha today to come to Lincoln and ap pear before the committee tonight, but ho found' the committee's doora closed' to him and was. Informed that neither he nor any other person, save a senator, could here after appear before thla committee. This arbitrary action confirms the belief that the "powers that be", have deter mined, to railroad the revenue bill through the senate : without ' further change. The 'committee .holds another star session to morrow to act on the bill.' , Fight of Corporations. The railroad lobbyists, who are credited with having had the whip hand In this revenue affair from the start, are deter mined not to allow . the; 'insurance and atreet railway lobbyists to reopen the fight In the upper' house. A railroad lobbyist said tonight; ' "We have 'em (Inched; they can't pos sibly buck our line.': But a desperate effort will be made to buck It nevertheless. A representative of the Omaha Street railway tonight said In answer to an Inquiry, that he thought his company would attempt to have the revenue bill amended In the senate so as to plaoe It. with telegraph, telephone and express companies, under' section 76. which pro vides a tax on tangible property and gross earnings as franchises. Asked if the com pany would brliig ault to test the constltu. tlonallty of the revenue bl.l If Its attempt to amend failed In the senate, aa It did la the house: thla gentleman said: ' "I am not authorised to speak, but 1 would not be at all surprised.

Mrs. Bur dlck underwent a merciless examination by District Attorney Coatsworth when the In quiry into her husband's murder wss re sumed today. Armed with numerous tender missives counsel forced the trembling woman to tell the story of her relations with Arthur Pennell, the story of the guilty love which her dead husband had discovered. . Mrs. Burdlck was deathly pale. She an swered questions In a low, faltering. voice, evading a direct answer whenever, possible and only admitting those facts' the love letters made pitilessly plain. The early part of the -day was taken up with unimportant witnesses. Indeed, It was not until 8:80 that the lethargic women who crowded the courtroom woke up with a start. ' Remembers Peanell'a Klaaea. Call Mrs. Burdlck." said Mr. Coatsworth then, and the audience turned excitedly to watch the pale-faced widow walk slowly to the witness stand, Hurrying . over preliminary questions counsel quickly brought her to her .rela tions with Pennell, whom she said she bad known five or six years. "Do you remember receiving a letter from Pennell in 1900," asked the district attorney, "in which he said:'. 'Yesterday I was at the gateway on the campus grounds, where more than two years ago I drew you to me in the darkness. This place en shrines met' " "No, sir, T do not." " ' '"; Mr. Coatsworth handed her the letter. ' "Do you recognise it as his handwriting?" he asked. "Tes.v whUpered Mrs. Burdlck. "And you recall the Incident T' "Tes.SIr." Witness said Pennell had taken her into a doorway and kissed her. fihe thought she had remonstrated A letter written from Shelton Island on September 11, 1900,' was next -produced. It referred in affectionate terms to his' hav ing found a pair of her gloves In his coat ppeket. ' A third letter from Shelton island, written In September, 1900, was also handed to her. - Mrs. Burdlck held it In ' her hands and read it.' 'She identified it as having "been written to her. " In it Pennell said he would telephone to her Just to hear her -dear voice. ' "What did' Pennell mean in his letter where he says he hoped to see you Wednes day morning at 137" Inquired the district attorney. "I do not know.' y "Doesn't 1-8. refer ' to' the- number-'of some- house In this city? - "I do not know." ' - . "In .1900 there - were several 1 houses In this city where you Used to-meet him?" "There were two or three." V"- ' .Looks for Lot Llcht In Her Eyes. .'-Mr. Coatsworth also, -produced -a- letter written from New. York, on September 18, 1900, in which Pennell says: "L Just came from .telephoning you. and. hearing your dear, sweet voice. Am I foolish to tela phone to you .from., wax. -down. tare ? It a worth tl lt',p-oat nj a freaTft mhrb and 'more that you are thetnly woman in h world for me." ' , ,-n. ,r. Later oh In the same letter he says Only a day more and I "rhall' once"teore see tbe lovellght In- your yes and expert? ence the paradise within your arms, Another letter , written from New York read: "As I looked into your beautiful eyes laat night I feared there was some trouble hidden there. I did not know, but I foared it waa because of some other rea son than because . I was going, away. If there was, dearest, I wish you would tell me. There Is that In the. manner of your husband toward you that makes mo fear some time that I might kill him Mrs. Burdlck listened to the . tender passages wistfully, but stoutly denied any recollection of receiving the letters, it seemed, however, that she kept many of Penncll's communications, for she admitted her husband had taken her by the throat and compelled her to give them up. She declared, however, that It was she and not Mr. Burdlck who started tne aivorce pro ceedlngs. ... . - Donbla Divorce Planned. She had no love for hut did love Pannell. whom she expected to marry. Hs had a wife, hut they were to be divorced. That waa it. waa It?" queried Mr. coats worth, with a sniff, "what did Mrs. Pennell think of the plan?" Sometimes," responded witness, wearily 'she' consented and sometimes sue re fused." A moment later she' admitted, however, that she had never talked with Mrs. Pea nell on- the subject, and that her husband sent her away in May, 1901. on account or Pennell. Mr. Coatsworth showed her a letter which she remembered writing from At lantic City on May 27, 1901, in which she begged to be tsken back, promising never to see "Arthur," and that she wouia oe a loving and true wife. She had added that while ahe eould not promise that Pennell would leave town he would, do what she said. In a second letter sbs said she and Pen nell had realised that they must give each other ud. but that Pennell declined to a anything thai would mean a loss or ni self-resDect. Many similar communications passed do tween them, and then after the. divorce proceedings commenced Burdlck wrote: If you love Pennell as you say you qq .w,. kl.m. vnti for whir VOU aid. IT loved a woman as you go j-runou nuu.u do as you are aoing. Proceeding he declared bs loved ner non sally and referred to the tact that Mrs. Burdlck was wearing a ring given her by Pennell over her lawful wedding ring. Bur dick declared be had no faith in Penneu nromlse and said she only wished to be taken back till the lawyer was freed from his wife. In still another letter Burdlck wrote that he forgave her. but a little later changed hia mind and declared be had de termined to fight for the little honor sue had left htm, and, after getting a divorce, to fight for the children. He would Insist on the counter suit by Mrs. Burdlck: being fought out In open court. Bnrdick Takes Her Bark. Three weeks after this Mrs. Burdlck was taken back by her husband. After returning from Atlantle CltyJ and after promising to be a good wife. She met Pennell. It waa not her habit, to meet nim, but he was constantly begging her to do so. and she did meet him In a house on Seventh street. She waa there once when Burdlck came, but he did not see her, as she stepped out of the window and went to church. She did not hear that Mr. Burdick and hia friend on that occasion caught Pen- jiell as he was Jumping out of. the window and took him back to the room. Mrs. Burdlck admitted having met Pen nell In another houae on Seventh atreet after that Incident and also at af' house oa Whitney Place two or three tlme'a.

Mass.," March, IS. Harvard met and defeated Yale- la joint debate In Sanders' theater tonight, having the af firmative of a question, "Resolved, That the United States should permit a Euro pean government td -seize and hold perma nently territory of a debtor state not ex ceeding In value the amount of the award." This question was spptled to South America snd six conditions governing it were presupposed, so that arguments were ! based on the understanding that payment of the debt according to the arbitration at The Hague had been efaulted. The judges unanimously decided that Harvard had the better form and excelled In logic. Harvard maintained that there was no alternative way of collecting the debt and that by abiding hi (he award the principle of arbitration was supported and the Inter ests of the 'World,, which were of more advantage than the selfish Interests of the United states, conserved. The Monroe doc trine. Harvard aald, should, not be made to cover wrongdoings by South American states, and It was ssserted that such an attitude would teach these statea tbe re sponsibilities which should belong to a solvent state and make for international morality. Yale, on the other hand, affirmed that there were other ways of satisfying a legal debt than by the seizure of land. Great emphasis was placed on the Monroe doc trine, and the proposal of the affirmative was declared to be tbe entering wedge for.! Its breakdown, which would cause the United States to become entangled In Euro pean political squabbles. The Harvard speakera were: F. B. Wag ner, t. Grossman and R. L. Lyman, their arguments being opposed by Robert H. E. Well, Alan Fox and Charles D. Lockwood for- Yale. The Judges were President Pritchett of the Massachusetts Institute of Technology; Provost C.
