H0USLT0 WAIT ON MOVES OF THE SENATE
Will Not Art aa Either Oaa (
the Conference Reports t'atll
tan Senate Saowa It
Hand.
WASHINGTON, June I.-The probabili
ties In the I'nlted State senate this week
Include consideration of a number of ap
propriation bills and conference report,
the statehood question, the railroad rate
bill, the type of canal to be constructed
across the Isthmus of Panama and the
right of Senator Smoot to retain hit seat
In the senate. The week' business will
begin with th taking up of th confer
ence report on the rate bill and It will hold
the favored position until disposed of.
After action on th rat bill preference
will be given to appropriation bills, th
naval bill coming first among these and th
District of Columbia bill following It. Of
the appropriation conference report that
on the Indian bill will receive first consld
oration with other following when ready
to be presented.
The sea level canal bill will hold U
place a the unfinished business, but It will
continue to be Jostled out of position by
other measures enjoying higher privilege
under the rule of the senate. It I now
generally conceded that there shall be a
vote on this measure before the final ad
journment of the session, and with thl
assurance Senator Klttredge, who has
charge of the bill. Is content not to pre
unduly for It continued consideration. He
will, however, be prepared to proceed With
It whenever the way I clear and will de
mand a vote at the earliest pactlcable mo
ment. There are many speeches still to
be made on the bill. Among the senator
who , are expected to speak on It are
Measra. Morgan, Millard, Spooner and
Hopkins.
Lively Defeat oa Statehood.
The conference report on the statehood
bill will ' be the subject of animated dis
cussion, but the belief la quit general that
she report on the rate bill will be accepted
after comparatively little controversy.
Senator Foraker ha already given notice
of opposition to the adoption of the tate
hood bill and he will have, the support ot
several 'senator who stood "with him
against the union of Art son and New
Mexico. They will make strenuous effort
to have the bill returned to the conferee
with instructions to stand for th senate
position confining statehood legislation to
the creation of the one state out of
Oklahoma and Indian Territory.
The queatlon of Senator Smoot' eligibil
ity will be raised by. the presentation ot
the report of the committee on privilege
and election, but It I not probable that
th subject will be taken up for discussion
this week. It Is possible that th discus
sion of the report on : statehood may be
postponed for a week or more.
In executive session th Barn case will
follow th Wlckerham case.
Hoase Program.
Th program for th week In the house
of representatives contemplates work on
the sundry civil appropriation bill. Ther
are several matters, however, which may
Interrupt this plan and which injected
themselves Into the equation late Saturday
These are the rate bill conference, the
statehood conference report and the Payne
bill, making minor changes In th admin
istration of th custom law.
Th regular order Monday la th passage
of the bill under suspension of the rule.
This mean a day of legislation on bill
of local character. Should th senate take
action on the rate conference report on
Monday, . the houa will follow Tuesday,
although mora than one day may be con
sumed in thi connection.
Th statehood conference report will be
taken up In the houae Just aa won as th
senate accepts It. If th senate . rejects
the report, the matter may not be brought
up in the house, Just what the .plan in
this respect Is In the senate has not been
determined, but leaders predict that the
statehood bill will not be brought into the
house this week.

KING ALFONSO TAKES A GLOOMY WW

DM.
MADRID, June 3. The rspture and sul-
lde Saturdsy night at Torrejon de Ardos
of Mauel Morales, the chief suspect In
the bomb outrsge against King Alfons..
nd Queen Victoria, adds another dra
matic chapter to the Incident surround
ing the royal wedding.
Morals wa recognised In the . little
town of Torrejon de Ardoe, midway be
tween Madrid and Alrala. A guarc- sought
to detain him, but Morales, drawing n
revolver, shot the guard dead. Then he
urned to flee, but a number of the In
habitant of th town were upon him
nd, turning the revolver upon himself.
he sent a shot In the region of hi hear',
expiring a few minutes - later. Senor
Cuesta, proprietor of the hotel from
the balcony of which Morales threw the
bomb, viewed the bod)' this morning and
completely Identified It aa that of his re
cent guest. ,
It waa I o'clock Saturday evening when
MorSles, disguised In the garb of a work-
Ingman, entered the station at TOrreJor)
de Ardos. He asked a child who waa In
charge of th office the time the next
train would depart for Barcelona. Hi
then sought food In a nearby chop. Hit
Catalonlan accent first attracted atten
tion to him. It wa then noticed that hi
workingman' suit waa entirely new and
did not correspond In texture to that
usually worn by a person of hi station
In life, hi face and manners showing
him to h a man of some distinction.
A private watchman from a neighboring
estate chanced to be present and he no
ticed the facial resemblance of Morale
to the descriptions given out of tho man
een on th balcony from which the
bomb wa thrown, particularly the long,
thin and deeply serious face and tho
closely cropped moustache. He then ob.
served that a finger on the man' left
hand, which the atranger waa trying to
conceal, wa badly hurt and also that
there waa a email, fresh scar on his fore
head. The stranger sought to take a
road leading Into the country, but tho
watchman Intercepted him and demanded
to know hi Identity. Morale declined
to give thj. whereupon a guard arrested
him. Instantly Morales drew a revolver
from his pocket and fired, the guard fall
ing dead. Morale atarted up the road,
but a amall group of villagers ahead
barred hi paeeage. Then, turning, he de
liberately pointed the weapon to hta heart,
fired and pitched forward In the roadway.
IdentlScatlon I Positive.
An examination of the pockets of the
dead man ahowed that they contained
II In money and a small supply of bread
and cheese, but there waa nothing in them
that would give a clue aa to his Identity.
Thl fact created a doubt that the man
wa Morales, but when the governor of
Madrid arrived. with Cuesta Identification
wa Immediate and positive. The body
was then brought to Madrid. At flrt
there waa a desire to bury It at Torrejon
de Ardos, but when this was suggested
the villager Indignantly refused to per
mit the boify to repose In their town.
Villagers of Torrejon de Ardos gave a
graphic description of the capture and death
or Morales. They say he appeared to be
greatly fatigued and fell aaleep on a bench
at the station. On entering the Inn he
called for dinner, but scarcely tasted a
morsel. The loquacious r ietreis of the
Inn discussed with him t; .svalllng tonic
of th throwing of the bomb at Madrid, de
claring It wa a heinous crime. At this th
stranger shifted nervously, saying: "Every
one ha hi own Idea, which should be re
peated." Shortly after this he tried to
leave the town.
After shooting himself Morale fell In the
road. Th villager advanced toward the
pot with the most venturesome of them,
Francisco Martlnes, ahead. Through the
moonlight Martlnes. saw Morales make a
desperate effort to ralae himself on his el
bow, his right hand still grasping the re
volver. Then the wounded man fell back
ward, but the villagers waited fifteen min
utes before going closer, fearing that he
might still be able to use the weapon. When
they did venture to the apot where the man
lay Morales waa dead. The weapon used
by him waa a seven-shot revolver.
Woaad on Body.
A close examination of the dead man
showed that there were three abrasions on
the body besides the death wound one on
th head, one under the left eye and one
on the forehead. His disguise was com
plete to the laat detail, even including th
common ateel watch ordinarily carried by
worxmen.
the body of Morale wa exposed this
afternoon for th purpose of allaying pub-
uo indignation. Thousands of persons
surged before Uie municipal morgue seeking
to get in llns to be admitted to the room
where the body lay, but cavalry and In
fantry blocked th ffort of the throng.
which murmured Imprecations against the
assassin. Public feeling waa lntenae, chiefly
because of the great number of victims. It
is seldom that a bomb explosion has had
uch deadly effect, th casualties in this
instance being twenty. four persons killed
ana more than eighty wounded.
rinal disposition of the body of Morales
haa not yet been determined upon, but the
public demand an Ignominious burial.
The American envoy to the royal wedding,
Frederick W. Whltrldge. and hi suit had
an opportunity for a brief conversation with
King Alfonso during the reception at the
palace Baturdajuatght. When the conver
aatlon naturally turned to the attempt on
the king and queen, King Alfonso shrugged
hi shoulders and mad the following sig
nificant statement, ahowlng how he views
the future:
King Expoet to Bo Killed.
-Yes. fortunately. It waa. unsuccessful
but It will com again. It may be any
time perhaps tomorrow, perhaps within a
month, perhaps within a year but it will
come."
The face of the king wore a look of calm
resignation aa he gave this forecast of
the future. Although he bore himself
splendidly throughout ths terrible expert
ence, the courtiers witnessed a trying
scene as King Alfonso and Queen Vic
toria hurried within th castle after the
attempt waa made to assassinate them
For a moment Alfonso's nerves were com
pletely. unstrung, and turning to Queen
Victoria, her dress spattered with blood,
he exclaimed:
"Why did I bring you to this country?
It was wrong; you never should have come
here."
Then the queen mother and one of the
Infantas calmed the over-wrought nerves
of the king and the bridal couple repaired
sxdly to the nuptial chambers.
A gsla performance waa given tonight
at the opera after a remarkable Inter
ruplton. It waa discovered Saturday night
that one ticket for the performance waa
missing. This had a suggestlv meaning
a th official had scrupulously kept
track of the destination of every one ot
them. Therefore 'ths entire Issus waa can
celled and new ones of a different color
were given out. Ths change was thi causa
of great confusion, but It waa considered
to be Imperative In order to guard against
th possibility of the missing ticket giving
access to the opera house of a person who
might throw a bomb. The American en
voy and his party were present. The king
and queen were greeted with enthusiasm.
It waa a brilliant spectacle. The opera
was "Lucia de Immermoor."
The churches of Madrid today celebrated
masses of thanksgiving for the eacape of
he king and queen. The scene at the
athedral wa Impressive.
Father Disown Anarchist.
BARCELONA, June t Senor Morales.
father of the anarchist who attempted to
kill King Alfonso and Queen Victoria and
who committed suicide at Torrejon de
Ardoa Saturday night, wa seen at Bar
celona today. He Is the proprietor of a
prosperous factory ther. He has a
trong Individuality and Is highly re
spected. Answering the questions of an
nspector of police concerning his son he
said:
'I wish to know nothing of this in
famous creature formerly bearing my
name. I have not considered him my son
since I drove him from my house March
The reason for his being cast out was
purely domestic and I beg to be excused
from disclosing It. I do not know whether
he waa connected with the attempt on
he lives of the king and queen, as I have
considered him dead since he was cast
out March 1."
Morales' brother, Fscundo, gave these
details concerning the dead man:
"At an early age he was sent to the
mercantile center of Oermany and
France, where he became an expert In
textile production, but his natural bent
was chemistry, end he returned to his
home with a library of German and
French works on chemistry. His morose
disposition led to family troubles, which
culminated In hla father disowning him.
Then Morales translated German chemi
cal books for the Ecole Moderre at Barce
lona. He lived quietly In a boarding
house and had few acquaintances. He left
Barcelona recently, saying that he would
be gone for a long time."

Perallar Accident to Boy.
HARVARD. Neb., June S.-(Special.)-
What came near being a fatal accident
occurred yeaterday afternoon at 4h home
of Mr. and Mrs. Frank Edwards, when
their child, a boy of 7 years, became seri
ously cut on a barbwlre fence. The father
had taken a young calf away from Its
mother, which had egaln got through the
fence where the cow was feeding, when
this boy and a smaller one also crawled
through the fence to play with the calf.
when the mother cow came after the larger
boy, crowding him against the fence, one
Strand of the wire being Just high enough
to strike the boy aCroa the throat. The
cow, still pressing the boy agalnat the
fence, resulted In the barbs cutting ths
child's throat from within about two Inches
of one esr to about the same distance
from the other, except for a short skip
under the chin; but the result was the
cutting of a vein and the free flowing of
the blood. At thl writing, favorable con
ditions seem to give hopes that the Jooy
will recover.
