, .. Charge Us a Been Loasred "
Against Him.
With County Attorney English placing no
belief In the demented condition of Frank
L. Henry, the alleged murderer who was
arrested by Sheriff Bralley yesterday, and
with a first degree murder oomplalnt ready
to be filed this morning, prospects for an
easy getting off for the wife killer have
gone a-gllmmerlng.
A oomplete statement by Henry has been
taken by the county attorney, but Is with
held from publication. William Henry, 20
years of age, the youngest brother of the
accused is in Jail and will be held at the
pleasure of th county attorney, with no
particular charge placed against him. An
attorney, T. E. Brady, saw Frank Henry
Thursday afternoon, after Henry had asked
tor legal counsel.
A sorrowful meeting between Henry and
his mother, who Is bent with grief over the
affair, took place In Henry's cell during
afternoon.
"He Is no more crasy than I am," de
clared County Attorney English, when
asked about his condition. "I don't be
lieve he haa been without food and sleep
since the shooting, as he talked straight
enough when I got his story of the affair.
He has been secreted somewhere In the
city by an accomplice, instead of hiding
alone in th Swift Ice house, according to
my opinion."
Henry was taken Into custody at the
farm house of Charles Palmateer, about
three-quarters of a mile northwest of
Florence.
Sheriff Bralley and two deputies, Ira
Flanagan and M. B. Thompson, captured
him without a fight, arriving at the house
and finding Henry currying a horse. Seven
city detectives In the police auto patrol
went to the house with the Intention of
arresting Hunry shortly afterward, but
found they had been beaten to the scene
by the county otficers.
Henry when locked up In a solitary cell
of the county Jail raved for a time like a
crasy man.

After a whole day spent In debate, and
tabling and voting down amendments, the
closing soenes. Just before the vote waa
taken, were dramatio, and the atmosphere
of the senate was charged with electrlolty.
Senator La Follette concluded a three-
hour speech, in which he urged his tariff
amendment, attacked the woollen schedule,
and criticised the bill generally. Then
Mr. Beveridge took the floor to speak th
fast word for th "Insurgents" on tha re- 1
pttbltcau stde. , .
Our votes,' he said, "shall be cast in..
harmony with our party's pledges, ' aa
voiced by our party's leader and th na
tion's president."
Suggesting that the Insurgents . would
cast their votes on the final passage of
the bill in conformity with their previous
action, Mr. Beveridge said they would do
so, as a notice to the conferees to bring
back a bill In which there should be de
creases of duty.
Mr.
Aldrlch Makes Reply.
Beveridge was answered by Mr,
Jap Fortifying Makdea.
ST. PETERSBURG, July 8. A dispatch

Angry Politician Slaps
French Cabinet Minister
PARIS. July 8. As he was leaving the
senate this afternoon M. Caillaux. minister
of flnanoe, was struck In the face by
Charles Bos, a former deputy, who claims
that the finance minister slandered him In
the chamber by charging him with lobbying
against the bill to renew the subsidy agree
ment with the Messagertes Maritime com
pany. According to the ex-deputy, M. Cail
laux raised his cane, but he did not strike
back, saying as he drove off, "A blow by
you doe not count."
Advocate of th customs commlnslon's
bills rallied In the chamber ot deputies to
day bnd assailed those who favor referring
the bill back to the government as traitors
to French Industry. M. Cruppl, the minis
ter of commerce, announced that the gov
ernment would conduct such tariff negotia
tions with other governments as were
deemed useful, but would not consider It
self bound by the action of the chamber.
M. Chaumet's motion Inviting the govern
ment to open diplomatic negotiations with
other countries was adopted. '
The senate toda y adopted the Franco
American extradition convention.
General, the Marquis de Galllfet, former
minister of war, died tonight. He was

Interpret their own Judgment, aa the Judg
ment of their party.
"The republican party la a party of
majorities," he said, "and th views of
the majority in matters of legislation con
trol party policies. The senator from In
diana does not speak for th republican
party. He haa no right to call her th
name of the president of the United Statea
in support of any suggestion which b haa
made."
Mr. Aldrlch declared that the pending
bill was a fulfilment of the party's pledge.
If senators wished to vote against th
bill, he said, they should not attempt to
speak for their party.
"I have listened with deep Interest to
the tearful and prophetlo funeral oration,"
said Mr. Stone from th democratic side.
He declared it reminded him of the old
hymn, "Hark From the Tomb a Polsful
Sound."

Mr. Crawford declared a vigorous protest
against any attempt on th part of Chair
