TAGGART AT C1NGLES TRIAL

Its Case.
CHICAGO, July t.-Thomas Taggart of
French Lick Sprints, lnd former chalr
rnan of the democratic national committee,
whose name was mentioned In the testi
mony given by Ella Olnfles, the U-year-old
Irish laosmaker, took the witness stand
today In Judge Brentano's court for the
purpose of clearing his name of any con
nection wtlh the ease.
Mr. Taggart was completely exonerated
by a formal statement made by Attorney
P. H. O'Donnell, eounsel for the Qlngles
girl, and also by his own testimony.
Miss Qlngles stated while a witness that
on the night of the first alleged attack
on her she heard the name of Taggart
mentioned. Later she said she had never
seen Mr Taggart that he had never writ
ten to her nor had he harmed her In any
way. She did declare, however, that her
assailants had tried to force her to go to
French tlek Springs, where she would
have "plenty of money, fine dresses and
nothing to do."

claimed all knowledge of Miss dingles, but
admitted a buslnsss acquaintance with Miss
Agnee Barretts, accuser of Miss Qlngles,
at a time when Miss Barrette conducted a
curio stand at French Lick.
Knew Mlaa Barrette.
As a preliminary to this testimony on th
point which brought him Into
Taggart stated that he had lived In Indiana
ior imrty-nve years, and that he was mar-
nea and had been In the hotel business at
PVenoh Lick Springs for a great many
years.
"I have been mayor of Indianapolis,
ohalrman of the national committee and
president of a street railway company."
jjo you know Miss Barrette, the com
plainant In this casef"
"yea."
"How did you get acquainted T"
"She worked as a manicure for a man of
the name of Gibson at French Lick. He
sold out to her and I, of course re-rented
to her the apartments in one of my hotels."
"Did you ever hear anything against her
character?" This question started a wrangle
rrom both attorneys in the midst of which
Attorney O'Donnell, addressing both the
court and Mr. Taggart, made a formal,
statement eaoneratlng Mr. Taggart In every
particular, saying;
"I want It distinctly understood that Mr.
Taggart's name was brought Into this case
over my protest. We have proof that Miss
(Singles was never acquainted . with Mr.
Taggart and bis name was mentioned only
Indirectly to her. It might have been any
one of ten thousand names of wealthy men,
but It happened to be Mr. Taggart, and In
this particular Mr. Taggart Is unfortu
nate." Stranger to Gloailea.
The interrogation of the witness as to
Miss Qlngles was exceedingly brief.
"Do you know Miss Qlngles T" asked At
torney Short.
"I do not," answered Mr. Taggart with
emphasis.
Miss Qlngles' eyes were glued on the
witness as he spoke. She took tn every de
tail, of his light suit, his low shoes and the
diamond which sparkled on his cravat
"Did you ever hear of Miss Qlngles be
fore this caseT" continued Mr. Short.
"Only some months ago when somebody
brought me a paper containing the name
of Miss Qlngles and Miss Barrette."
"Tou were not subpoenaed here by the
state, were youT"
"I was not subpoenaed by anybody. I
heard that my name was being used and
as a man of family i-ame to clear my name
of any shadow which might have been
thrown over it."
At this point Attorney O'Donnell de
clared that there was not a scintilla of evi
dence In his possession nor In that of his
client justifying the use of Mr. Taggart's
name. He declared It had been brought
Into the case by the prosecution.
Taasart Clears Hlasaelf .
. "Tou don't know me, Mr, Taggart, do
your Mr. O'Donnell asked.
"I do not"
"And I don't know you," replied the
defenee lawyer.
"Oh, you're too busy trying to clear your
own skirts." said Mr. Khort glancing
sharply at Mr. O'Donnell.
"Do you know of any branch of the
"white slave" clique that has Its head
quarter at French Llckf" asked Mr.
Short
"What Is a white slaver' Inquired Mr.
Taggart with a perplesed look.
The definition was given by Mr. Short,
and then Mr. Taggart replied:
-"No, sir; I never heard of any such
thing." ...
Mr. O'Donnell again took the witness.

"Mr. Taggart, who first injected your
name Into this case V
"I don't know."
Mr. Short again Interrupted, accusing Mr
O'Donnell of having given out statements
to the papers, using Mr. Taggart's name.
I did not," replied Mr. O'Donnell, hotly
I am not an assassin."
With the rebuttal testimony today a
new aensaUon Is promised In the story of
Agnes May Barrette, the young woman
against whom Miss Qlngles has directed the
stain of her narratives. Miss Barrette wept
loudly in court when Assistant State's At

be done her. ,

When the house met at noon Interest was
at fever heat The leaders on both sides
had notified their respective forces to be
on hand. In anticipation that the tariff
bill would come over from the senate. The
summonses were responded to almost with
out exception.
Maay Hepnklteaa laeargrvBts.
The debate at times waxed warm and dis
closed the fact that there were some re
publicans, In addition to the so-colled "in
surgents," who were yet to be pacified be
fore they would give their votes on the
final passage of the bill. A feature of ihe
discussion was an appeal of Chairman
Payne to his eoUeaguee to send the con
ferees to the senate unhampered by Instruo-
e promised to rlaldlv
explanation of every amendment made by
le. in oraer that the house con
ferees might report back a bill whioh n.,i.i
meet the approval of the majority and of
the country at large. His appeal was
granted.

Calderhead (Kan.), Fordney (Mloh.), re
publicans, and Clark (Mo.). Underwood
(Ala.) and Grlgg (Ga.), democrats.
When the house met at noon today its
member were in possession of eoQjes of
the tariff bill as it had been amended and
passed by the senate.
! Bill Receive from Seaate.
It was precisely U:0 o'clock when Senate
Clerk Crockett appeared In front of the
speaker's rostrum and announced that the
senate had passed the tariff bill. He then
turned the bulky document over, to one
of the house officials.
Two minutes later, on motion of Mr.
Payne, the house took a recess until I
o'clock to permit the committee on rules
to meet with a view to deciding upon a
course of procedure to recommend to the
house.
The committee met Immediately and de
cided to bring In an order for the reference
of the bill to a committee on conference
as required by the senats, the house meaa
tlme disagreeing to the senate amendments.
The committee also decided that there
should be a. debate of an hour and a half
on this order. The decision la due to the
fact that there are still some absent mem
bers from the house for whose arrival the
leaders on both sides prefer to wait be
fore taking a vote.
- Role for Conrerence.
Following is the text of the resolution
decided upon by the committee:
That the house take from the speaker's
table and nonconcur in gross In the senate
amendments to the house bill No. 1438 '(the
tariff bill) and atcree to the conference
asked for by the senate on the disagreeing
votes of the two houses; and that a com
mittee of conference be appointed forth
with; and said committee- shall have au
thority to Join with the senate committee
In renumbering the paragraphs and sec
tions of said bill when finally agreed upon.
The hour and a half of debate It was
decided should be equally divided between
the two parties.
When the recess had expired Mr. Dalsell
of Pennsylvania, of the committee on
rules, was at once recognised to offer the
rule providing for., ronconcurrence in all
the amendments and agreeing to the con
ference requested by the senate. He sup
plemented the rule with a motion for one
hour and a half for debate.
This suggestion was not entirely 'accept
able to Mr, Townsend of Michigan, who
wanted the time extended to three hours,
but he did not press his point and Mr. Dal
tell's motion was adopted.
After explaining the parliamentary situa
tion affecting the bill, Mr. Dalsell declared
his belief that he voiced the sentiment of
every member of the house on both sides
and of the entire cltlsenslilp of the oountry
when he said that what was needed now
was a speedy disposition of the measure.
The method suggested by the committee
on rules, he said, was in consonance with
that Idea.
The bill was condemned by Mr. Town
send of Michigan. As it left the house, he
said. It complied with the republican
pledges, but now, he declared, "you would
hardly recognise It If you met It In the
road." He did not believe It was ever
Intended that the senate should Introduce
brand new propositions which the house
had never discussed.
"It seems to me," he exclaimed with ear
nestness, "we have reached the point when
our respect for this house demands that
our friends at least shall know how we
feel about this."
Mr. Townsend created a stir when he

declared that In the course of the debates
In the senate the house and the ways and
means committee had been Insulted. He
Insisted that the bill ought to be controlled
by the Mouse, subject to such recommenda
tions as the senate rightfully could make,
and not by a conference committee.
The bill. In the opinion of Mr. Fltsgerald
(dem., N. T.) was about as bad a pleoe of
legislation as It would be possible to make.
He hoped there would be aroused through
the oountry a resentment making It Impos
sible to put some of the senate amendments
Into effect
Illinois Man Revolts.
The first open evidence of an Intended
revolt on the republican side was mada
manifest when Mr. Mann of Illinois pro-
lesiea against the amendments fixing the
auties on wood pulp and print paper.
There were but two states which would
benefit by such a protection, declared Mr.
Mann.
"I give notice now," he exclaimed amid
democratio and some republican applause,
"that If these two states write the provision
in the conference report on print paper and
on wood pulp In the interest of their states
and against the interests of the consumers
of paper and the manufacturers of paper
In the rest of the nation, so far as I am
concerned, I shall swallow my desire to
stand with the organisation qf the house,
my desire to prove that the republicans are
able to write a tariff bill and vote against
the conference report."
The Ice having been thus broken, Messrs.
Davidson (Wis.) and Douglass (O), two
other republicans, were even more out
spoken In their opposition. The Ohio mem
ber was especially antagonistic . He would
oppose the bill as amended, he declared.
Should it be defeated there would, he said,
still remain the Dingley law, "a law under
which this country has prospered for twelve
years as no country on the face of the
earth has prospered."
Messrs. Randall (Tex.). Pou (N. C.) anl
Henry (Tex.) characterised the measure as
breaking the republican pledges to the
American people.
Men from CoanctI Bluffs.
Their remarks aroused Mr. Smith (la.),
who declared the American people did not
direct a democratio revision of the tariff.
Without specifically mentioning the sen
ate, Mr. Smith, facing the democratio side,
said that many democrats, "elsewhere"
than In the houss, had been largely Instru
mental tn placing the Increases In the bill.
This assertion elicited loud republican ap
plause. Maintaining that the republican in the
country were greatly dissatisfied with the
bill, Mr Harrison of New York said It
seemed a pity for democrats to Inject them
selves Into the debate. He said, however,
that If the republicans did not Join with
the democrats In defeating the bill the ma
jority party would be repudiated at the
polls at the next election.
Insurgent from Nebraska.
Mr. Norris of Nebraska Joined his Insurg-
nt republican colleagues and protested
that the republican party would not be
true to Its pledges If the bill In Its amended
form should become law.
In pleading for the opportunity to vote
xeparately on the various amendments,
Mr. fiartlett of Georgia, democrat, declared
he was In favor of the amendments provid
ing for free cotton bagging and the draw
back on cotton ties, but as to the corpora
tion tar, he said. It was "a subterfuge, a
pretext, a sham, placed In the hill to defeat
the Income tax."
"Grest God Almighty, eight hundred and
forty-seven amendments!" wss the excla
mation of Mr. Clark of Missouri, the
minority leader, as he closed UiS debate
on his side. He proposed the Idea of
voting on every amendment without detfate.
which, he said, would take only twenty-six
hours.
The bill, Mr. Clark said, when It left
the house was bad, the Aldiich-Smoot bill
Is worse and Judging the future by tho
pst ths result of the labors of ths confer
ence committee will be worse than all."
Wants No Instructions.
Mr. Payne In cloning for the majority,
pleaded to send the conferees to the sen
ate unhampered by any vote of Instruc
tions. "Trust your conferees representing you,
representing your ideas," he exclaimed,
"to go Into that conference and take care
of the Interests of the house In carrying
out the Instructions from the American
people In agreeing upon a report of this
bill." .
Mr. Payne opposed the democratic con
tention for separate votes, and astonished
his hearers when he asserted that he was
unable to tell whether some of the amend
ments raised or lowered the Dingley rates.
"Wouldn't it be all all right for you to
give yourself the benefit of the doubt
and vote against those you don't under
stand T" Interjected Mr. Clark amid laugh
ter. "I propose," responded the majority
leader, "to give myself the benefit of the
doubt, and vote against all of them."
which utterance greatly pleased the republicans.
He said he was against them before a
conference, "a conference that will de
mand to know the reason for these amend
ments; a conference that will have to
understand the effect of them, and whether
they conform to their Idea of what a pro
tective tariff should be before they agree
on them.
"I was for the house bill when It passed
here." he added amidst shoults of repub
lican applause, "and I am yet to 'be con
vinced as to the Improvements that have
been made upon It In another place."
Exneete Good BUI.
Mr. Payne expressed his desire for a full
conference "that will bring before the
house finally a bill that will meet the ap
proval of this side of the house; that will
meet the approval of the oountry; a bill
with which we can go before the people
of the United States with confidence and
disappoint those gentlemen on the other
side who are looking so enviously for some
of the seats occupied by better men on
this side."
When the laughter and republican ap
plause that greeted this utterance subsided
the vote was taksn on the motion of Mr.
Dalsell for the previous question. The yre
vious question was ordered yeas, 1?; nays
IA.
On the adoption of the rule the roll again
was called. This vote resulted: Teas, 178;
nays, 161, and the amendments accordingly
were all rejected and the bill sent to con
ference. The house then adjourned until Monday
noon.
Session of Senate.
During a session lasting nearly four hours
the Philippine tariff bill and ths bill auto
matically continuing the Porto Rlcan budget
were passtd by the senate. Only a nom
inal resistance was offered by the minor
ity to these measures. An amendment by
Senator Johnston (Ala.) declaring ths in
tention of the United States eventually to
grant Independence to the Philippines, was
opposed as being out of place In this bill,
and was rejected. Senator Culberson sought
to limit the operation of the Porto Hlcan
act to July 1. 1910, but his amendment for
that purpose was defeated.
The senate entered upon en agreement to
adjourn three days at a time until the
conference report on the tariff bill la ready
for"conslderatlon. and al.n ni t .
any legislation when It does convene.
By the adoption of a house resolution an
Invitation was accepted by congress to be
represented at the Alaska-Tukon-Paclflc

ment of the death of Representative Cuhti

Spirit of Pride
Results in The
Zulu Love Song
Latest Song Hit Written by a
Talented Pair Right
Here in Omaha.
The Zulu Love Song, a bit of catchy
song and "rag" music that has twirled
Itself Into popularity over night, as it were,
is the result of two talented young men'a
confidence In their own ability,
Louis J. Hofman of the Burwood theater
orchestra, and Earl J. Hicks, former first
comedian of the Air Dome Stock company,
were a few weeks ago listening to ou
of the many popular "African Isle" song
Jingles that have become so popular dur
ing the past few seasons.
"Bet 1 csn write music that will pleas
better and sell better," confidentially as
serted Hofman.
"And It's dollars to doughnuts that I'll
put livelier words Into It for you," agreed
Hfflf m tA fmin that mnmanf nn Tti ffnln
Love Song was on Its road to completion.
What has followed since la popular his
tory the song was put on the market by
A. Hospe sV Co., of 1613 Douglas street,
and today, a few weeks after, It Is being
sung and played in almost every slate In
the union, over T.&U0 copies having already
been printed and sold.
The Zulu Love Song Is on of those
plaintive, yet "gingery" masierplecv that
tickle the public palate, and a song catchy
enough to sell intu the thousands at once.
Is a larger success, (from a business stand
point, at least) than a classic that will
llv fur years.
Several theatrical organisations are al
ready using the "Zulu Love Song" as a
feature, and this clever effort upon the
I-art of Messrs. Hofman and Hicks bids
fair to become one of the clearest defined
suocessos of years.
A very capable musician at the A. Hospe
company will be pleased to play "The Zulu
