The right of Governor Lllley of Connecticut to retain his seat as a representative In congress from that state was questioned In the house today by Mr. Gaines of Tennessee. Mr. Gaines contended that on a recent roll call Mr. Lllley was recorded as ab sent, and yet. he said, Mr. LJlley had been sworn In as governor of Connecticut. ' From the headlines of the newspapers," declared the speaker, "the chair has noticed that there la some question as to whether Mr. Ulley la governor of Connecticut," "but," he added, "you can't always be lieve what you see In the newspapers and the chair has no official Information In the premises." Mot to Oast Mlley. Mr. Gaines persisted In his point ind offered a resolution, as a rratter of privi lege, declaring that Mr. I.illey having been duly elected and qualified as a member of the house, and also as governor of the state of Connecticut, his name should be stricken from the roll of the house and his seat declared vacant. The majority leader, Mr. Payne of New York, moved tho reference of the resolu tion to the committee on Judiciary. In defense of Governor LJlley, Mr. Hlg glns of Connecticut declared that Mr. Lllley did resign as a member of the house; that he resigned to his predecessor. Gov ernor Woodruff, end that he had already qualified as governor, and that he was no longer a member of the house. Mr. Payne's motion was unanimously adopted. Weald Ilearlad Marine Order. By unanimous vote the house committee on naval , affairs agreed to recommend placing the marines back on the ships In the navy contrary to tho action of the president. This action was taken at a meeting of the committee following the taking of testi mony for several days. Hear Admiial Kobley D. Evans was the last witness heard. He approved of the- recent order of the president, removing the marines from the ships and urged their organization Into battalluns, but still to be a part of the navy.

Rockhlll. the American minister, and Sir J. N.' Jordan, the British minister, today called upon Prince Chlng, president of the Foreign board, und made representations on the subject of the recent dismissal from office of Yuan Bh Kal, a member of the grand council. This step was taken Indepen dently of the diplomatic representatives In Peking, and without previous communica tion of the Intention to the Foreign board. The two minister proceeded In accordance with recommendations made by them to their riectlv governments. They dis claim any intervention, but it Is thought they objected to the dismissal. The gov ernment understands that they acted on behalf of Yuan Shi Kal. It Is understood that the Austro-Hungrlan minister sup ports Mr. Rockhlll and Sir. J. N1. Jordan, while the representative of the other pow er hold that their course constitute un warranted Interference in the Internal af fair, of China. The government desires to hold a formal reception of the diplomatic corps, at which th regime of Prince Chlng will b recog nised, and its wish is due partly to the reception abroad of tbq news of Yuan Shi Kal dismissal. ,aa well as local press comment thereon. The Foreign board therefore submitted to the diplomatic corps on January 10, the new regulation devised for the guidance of diplomat In their in tercourse with the legent. The regent t day - reevivtns M. ,- u - 4tMii'g French minister, in accordance with these rules. The diplomats, however, are de liberating the suggestions and It I not likely that the British and American min isters will signify their acceptancebefore the regent gives his reasons for the dis missal of Yuan Shi Kal, together with as surunce for the future. The Foreign board asked for an answer approving the pro posed regulations In forty-eight hours. MESSINA IS REBUILDING Quake-Proof City Is Now Planned 'ear Present Kit. Below MESSINA, Jan. 15.
