He ahowed that while the Northwestern had bought 1X0. 000 worth of real estate In Omaha and taken It out of the city for taxing purposes It had not In creased Its returns made to the atate board. Hamer of Buffalo raised the "Omaha against the state flag" and shook It Ion? snd hard. He shouted that no party laah was strong enough to whip Into line for a measure which would take from the smaller towns and give to Omaha, He lived on the main line of the Union Pacific, he said, and he was here to look after his home (own and the small towns In his county Just as much as the Omaha delegation was hers to look sfter Omaha, He begged the Members to stand against Omaha. Jefferson of Clay, who spoke for the bill, asked that it be discussed on Its merits and that no one be carried away by the oratory. He was satisfied the hill would help his horns town and every other town ta the state. Klllen Ro7 for Railroad. Then Klllen began to ask questions, wind ing up by filing with the clerk a long letter knocking on the bill, signed by II. II Wil son," attorney for the Interurban company, who said the bill would result in double . taxation. Among the questions asked Clarke by the gentleman from Oage was what per cent of the local assessors would assess the railroad property light f Clarke admitted he did not know, but all of .them would If they did their duty. Later op Klllen Indulged In a lengthy speech In which he said the bill would com pel every person to go down ln his own pocket and pour money Into the ptcket of Omaha. "Bhe Is a Caesar," he exclaimed dramatically reaching his climax. Harrlsoa of Otoe said hehad listened to lots of oratory, but ha had fnlled to hear any argument that the bill. If passed, would take one penny from the various towns In the state. Until that could be shown him and until It could bo shown him that it would Increase the taxes paid by the farm ers, he would vote for the bill. McMullen then moved for the committee to arise and Wilson Jumped In with the statement that he would withdraw his motion to strike out the enacting olause. Clarke, - and ethers .'objectPdi. desiring the matter to .crime to a showdown and Chairman Knowles ruled the gentleman ! from Custer couldnot withdraw his mo tion, as It was In the possession of the house. The McMullen motion was then put and carried by a Mstng vote of 42 to 4t. In one of his talks Wilson, said he made the motion to strike out the enacting clause of the bill because It was dying and ha wanted to save Its author the agony of a glow death. He was roundly applauded by the railroad lobbyists, who were watching the proceedings, and by a number of the . Bkmbrs who are assisting the railroads. Par Food Bill Debate. Th senate, In committee of the whole this afternoon, after a sensational debate, recommended the pure food bill for pass age.

Cheney of To ledo, O., who, he said, had been an Im portant lobbyist before congress when the national pure food bill was enacted. He declared the national law was weak and did not give sufficient protection. During the debate personalities passed between several of the members. The substitute for section 8, which was adopted, provides a retailer cannot be prosecuted for violations If he has a guar anty from the wholesaler or manufacturer that the goods he sells ar not In viola tion of the law. The substitute for section 8 was rejected by a bare majority, while the substitute for section 9 had twenty-one votes In Its favor and was adopted. Dlscnsalon Becomes Warm. The debate on the report of the commit tee on manufactures and commerce, rec ommending that the amended pure food bill be passed to third reading without giving an opportunity to discuss the amend ments offered was the most heated of any discussion In the senate this session. It was held under the guise of explanation of votes during the roll call, but under a ruling of President Hopewell It became a running discussion, In which personalities played a prominent part. The discussion got clear away from the presiding officer, and once when' he ruled Epperson out of order the glnnt from Clay county refused to acept the ruling' and told 'the president he would have to get the sergeant-at-arms to throw him out before he would quit. The trouble came about over the motion of McKesson of Lancaster to adopt the committee report. In the same motion he Incorporated a demand for the previous question, which would have cut oft ' all debate on th new amendment. The roll call was demanded and most of the sena tors opposed to the change In the bill took advantage of the opportunity to explain their votes. The words "Jobbery," "gag rule" and "trickery" Were hurled at th head of the senator from Lancaster county so often he rose one or twice and de manded protection. Aldrlch was the first on the roll call and In explaining his vote he made an argu ment against the amendment and charged It had been "fixed1; with the Intent to rush It through the senate without giving a chance for debate. Ashton followed him on the other side, and when King of Folk called Ashton to order for arguing ths ques tion 'instead of explaining It, President Hopewell ruled that inasmuch ss Aldrlch had been allowed considerable latitude he would permit Ashton to go on, but would enforce theruls as to the other senators. Clash ' with Chair. During Ashton's argument King repeated his point of order several times and the re fusal of th president to enforce th rule caused the first clash between the president and King. When Epperson's name was reached he began to discuss "gag rule" sod the merits of the bill, when President Hopewell called him to order. "The president has been unfair In his ruling as to th gentlemen from Hall and I Insist that lie be unfair as to me." When he ' proceeded with his argument the presiding Officer sgaln called him to order and said "he could not allow th sen ator to go oni "I will cdntlnue- to go on," shouted th senator from Clay, "until ths presiding of ficer procures tht services of the Sergeant- at-arms to throw me out." President Hopewell sat down, but again Interrupted. "Throw me out, throw ma out," shouted Epperson and continued with his speech. "I must Insist upon your stopping," said President Hopewell, again pounding th desk with his gavel. T "1 understand your ruling," said' Epper son, "but you let ths gentleman from Hall go on and I am going on." After a few minutes mora he sat down Patrick Injected some mors life Into the proceedings by demanding the rule against lobbyists be enforced and that druggists on the floor of ths senate be- compelled to withdraw. He named Mesara ' Bauford, Is to love children, and na home can be completely happy without them, yet the ordeal through which the ex pectant mother must pass usually is so"' full of suffering, danger aud fear that she looks forward to 'the critical hour with apprehension and dread. freit Brown and Tata of Omaha, who Imme diately went outside the railing. A few minutes later Aldrlrb. demanded that C. a. Bherman. an Omaha druggist, withdraw, but Thomas of Pouglas declared Mr. finer man had his card of admlaalon and was entitled to remain, and the roll call pro ceeded. Clashes between McKesson and King and Barkett enlivened the latter part of the roll rail, when the two latter de nounced MoKrssnn's motion as an at tempt to "gag" the senate on an Impor tant bill. McKhsson demanded protection, but he was ruled out of order, an Beckett had the floor. The motion on the previous question was lout by a vote of 17 to 16, the chair holding It required a two-thirds majority. The vote was as follows: Ayes Ashton.

After a little more parliamentary squab bling the report was made' a special order for this afternoon In committee of the Whole. McKesson, s.ngsred at the refusal of th senate to adopt the motion on previous question, moved that the rule of the senate on the previous . question bs repealed. , It was pointed out the senate had no such rule, but acted under Roberts' .

The principal part of that announcement, however. Is that ths railroad magnates wsnt the supervision of the railroads transferred . to the federal government that they may avoid state legislation and this contradicts the prist dent's theory that the -corporations favor state rights aa a means of avoiding fed eral control. "The great corporations would much rather risk control by congress which Is far away from th people, than by state Insula tures, which are close to the peo ple." . BINQHAMTON, N. T.. March, It. A rep reaentattve of the Associated Press today asked William J.

He replied: "The most Interesting phase of tbe situa tion is ths refusal of tbe people to lend money freely to th railroads. The ra'l road managers say this Is due to hostile legislation, but this Is a mistake. There has been no hostile legislation of sufficient severity to impair th real value of rail road securities where the' railroads have been honestly conducted upon an honest cspltallsatlon.

Kiaeeta to Cioeo Its Case This Week. NKW YORK. March 11 After a forenoon session Occupied almost entirely by Dls tr!et Attorney Jerome In a bitter denuncia tion of the defendant and his wife, the trial of Harry K. Thaw for the murder of Stan ford White was adjourned shortly after 12 o'clock to day until tomorrow morning. Trie prosecuting attorney found hts oppor tunity to attack Thaw and Evelyn Nesblt In arguing on the question of the admis sibility or the testimony which Abrsham Hummel, ths lawyer, who Is under Indict ment for subornation of ' perjury In the Dodge-Morse) divorce case, has to offer. It was to (enable Del phi n M. Dalmas, ths lead ing counsel for ths defense to consult authorities-and f ram a feply to Mr. Jeroms and also to allow the latter an opportunity of completing th hypothetical question which he la to put to his experts that the early adjournment was ordered. Mr. Jerome said h hoped to close the rebuttal for th people tomorrow evening. Jerome Attacks Mrs. Thaw. During his argument today the district attorney asserted that Hummel would swear that Evelyn Nesblt told him three days after her return from Europe In 1903 that Thaw had beaten her cruelly because She would not sign papers he had prepared, falsely accusing Stanford White of hav ing drugged and betrayed her. Mr. Jerome contended that she had told much more, that Thaw seemed be tit upon putting Stan ford Whit in the penitentiary, that the statement that White had betrayed her was not true, that Stanford Whit had never harmed her, and that Thaw was consumed with rsge when she refused to sign snd swear to the papers containing "lies against Stanford White." "These things Were put In the forn of an affidavit," declared Mr. Jerome, "and that affidavit Was subscribed to by Evelyn Nes blt when she knew whst she was doing and What th paper Contained. We want tn 8how fhgt th girl who told this remarkable . . , ... story here on theN witness stand swore at another tlm 'undr the solemnity of an oath that ah had endured the lashings snd beatings of this .defendsnt rather than swear to his false statements that Stanford White had drugged and ruined her." Mr. Jeroms argued that the material point of the base Is whether pr not Evelyn Nesblt told Thaw the storv of her allesed fiiln by Btsnford.Whlte. Without that story I In evidence, he declared, the reason for the defendant's alleged Insanity disappears. The prosecutor plainly admitted the Im portance of young Mrs. Thaw's testimony snd he ssrtd he wished by Hummel's tes timony to Show her own repudiation of the charges, which on the witness stand she renewed against White. "Thus," he con cluded, "the Jury may filter from her own statements after her return from Europe lu 190$, whether or not she hsd within two moths of that . Urn told this defendant th thing ah said she did." Delmas Will Reply Today Mr. .Delmas objected to Hummel as a wit ness en the ground that his testimony had to dn.wlth .th truth or falsity . of Mrs. Thaw's harrntlon ' and was not permiss ible undel th rulea of evidence. Ho will proceed wltli his argument tomorrow.' Mr. Jerom' contention Is that while he, may Dot attack the truth or falsity of Mrs. Thaw's statement- that she was betrayed by-White, he can attack the truth of her as sertion that she told the story to Tbaw at the time ane says shs did. Mr. Delmas first sought today to inter rupt Hummers testimony by showing that he was sctlng as Kvelyn Neablt'a legal (tdvlcer and counsel when she roads certain statements to him. Hummel evaded this. however, by saying he waa acting solely as White's counsel and no legsl action had been contemplated in behalf of Miss Nes blt- H was paid a yearly retainer by Stanford White and could not say exactly what he charged the architect for drawing up th affidavit. Asked If It was $1,000, he said absolutely It was not. He finally placed the charge at "one hundred dol- iara about When Evelyn Thaw was on the witness stand she Said Stanford Whit came to see her one evening in 19C8 and asked her what she had told Hummel about him, adding that "Ab Humrtysl had just squeoied $1,U00 out of m and th Lord only knows how soon ha will squeess another." Mrs. Thaw's . Starr of Amaavlt. Toung Mrs. Thaw's testimony regarding th affidavit was that Stanford Whit had taken her to Hummel's office after telling her "lots of horrible things about Harry, and she , told Hummel about her trip through Europe with Thaw. "Mr. Hum mel," she said, "then dictated a lot of things to a man and put in lots about Harry Thaw which waa not true at all.'

BANKS MAY HETAIJt THE CASH Treasury Will Not Call for Reform of Special Deposits at Present. WASHINGTON, March 18. The secretary of the treasury today announced that tho $30,000,000 which was deposited in national banks the last of September, to be re turned about the beginning of February, would not be called for at present. Beyond saying that he was keeping a close watch on the situation In New York Secretary Cortslyou would not Indicate what bis fur ther plans were. The official statement of Secretary Cor telyou la as follows: . The secretary of the treasury announced this afternoon that It Is not his intention to fix at present a date upon which the JJO.ow,- OuO additional deposits placed with existing deooaltarv banks swurea dv state, munici pal and railroad bonus, under tne terms oi tne press announcement oi Bt-piemuer ii. IMS, shall be returned to the treasury. On October 22 last the secretary of the treasury authorised national banks that had government bonds on deposit to secure public deposits to substitute for the govern ment's bonds, state and municipal bonds. provided they would use the government bonds so released to increase their circula tion, Eighteen million dollars was fixed aj the limit of this Increase. The secretary provided, however, that this Increased cir culation must b reduced at the rat of $3,000,000 a month, beginning on March 1. In view of the money situation In New York, Secretary Cortslyou thinks it is un wise to compel a compliance with this order and therefore has stated that the banks that took advantage of this offer of Oco ber 23 may retain their Increased circulation provided they substitute Philippines, Pan ama and Hawaiian bonds for the stats and municipal bonds they now have on deposit.
