LINCOLN, Feb. 1. tSpecial.) If anyone
has any doubt t to the legal accuracy
with which the contest over Beheele's seat
in th house is to be decided, Just let, him
read this. It Is an objection offered In the
record of the committee meeting last Wight
to th condition of the box when 4t Iwaa
submitted, ifi th committee and was "al
leged to contain the alleged ballots." Mr.
Grossman Is a lawyer and was for that
reason able to accomplish thi without a
quiver or a smile. The objection Is from
the stenographer's notes:
"1 object to the opening of th wooden
box Which Is said to contain th alleged
contest paper In the case of Wertman
versus Bcheele, for the reason that th said
box shows that a contained on th out
side notice of the taking ot depositions In
said cause and, that said paper that more
than one-half or two-thirds of said paper
has been torn off or abstracted from said
box and unknown to this committee or any
member of the committee, which plainly
rhows that one of the said boards under
which the said paper was, wa raised and
the said paper upon said board wa
loosened or torn off and Is not now In
the possession of this committee ; and is
now missing."
K. E. E. Rldgeway has mystified the sten
ographers and young women employed
in the house bill room by his cryptic col
lection of Initials, as he has mystified
other communities with sundry strange
thing about hi personality and habits.
They have decided that the three "Es"
stand for Elizabeth Eleanor, Elvira. So
they call him "Tripoli Lizsle," which Isn't
half bad.

An engineer in a shunting locomotive was
blown from his cab and died of a fractured
skull. A tugboat captain was hurled from
hi wheelhouse and fished out of the water
fifteen minutes later, swimming about the
southern side of the demolished pier.
Inside the passenger station there was
damage visible everywhere. The floors
were littered with broken glass. Windows
fronting on the inner court had been
sucked from their frame, aashes and all.
Slate were torn from the roof. The hands
of the ferry house clock were lorn off. The
southern wall bulged like a pasteboard
box left out In the rain. There were no
sashes In most of the windows' and no
glass In those that had sathes.
Two ferry boats of the Central Railroad

and were showered with their own glass.
Many of the wounded passengers came to
New York for Treatment.
In New Yci-k the terror wa Intensified
by uncertainty. For half an hour nobody
knew what happened 'or where. Those In

Laterally acres of glass were broken.
Eighteen windows were smashed in the

Detail of Explosion.
New York, business men, who stood in
their window looking out over the North
river at noon, saw a puff of yellow dust
shoot into the air Just below the Jersey
Central terminal and then drift with the
wind until It covered the terminal train- I

every tugboat in the river seemed to be
heading to Comruunlpaw. -
Turning to the street below they saw
them black with a surging throng. There
were Incipient panics here and there
throughout the city a far north a the
Bronx. The Jar crossed many telephone
and fire alarm wires, downtown and all
sort of complications ensued. Fire engine
were dashing hither and thither In quest
of non-existent fires. Terrified tenants
made matters worse by turning in alarms
that had not sounded of their own ac

New York, and Fire, Chief Croker were
among the first to reach Commun paw from
New York. A picked band of New York
police accompanied them.

BROWN OPPOSES
FURTHER DELAY
(Continued from First Page.)
Lorlmer and Stat Representative Lee
O'Neill Brown had been such as to render
It certain that , Lorlmer had been positively
advised as to Browne's operations in Lor
lmer' behalf.
To this end the senator undertook to
show that the support of Browne and his
thirty democratic followers had been pro
cured through Speaker Shurtleff, the room
mate and warm friend of Lorlmer and that
after Lorlmer and Browne had been
brought together they were In constant
conference, meeting aa often as a dozen
times In ope evening.
"What wer those conferences about?"
asked Mr. Brown
Making reply to his own query, he said:
"Every senator here knows that they re
lated to the ways and mean necessary to
win votes for Lorlmer. On no rational
theory can anybody conclude that Lorlmer
wa unadvised by Browne of anything that
Browne did for him, and whatever Browne
did and whatever difficulties Brown en
countered in liis canvass for support among
his followers for Mr. Lorimer. must hay
been made known to him at these confer
ences, and Independently of any direct tes
timony on that question, It must be con
cluded In all good reason and conscience
that Browne concealed nothing from ..Lor
imer and that Browne did nothing to fur
ther the election ot Lorimer that Lorlmer
did not know about at the time. This con
structon Is supported by every undisputed
circumstance surrounding th transaction."
Browne Report to Chief,
Quoting then, Browne' admission that he
did make reports to Lorimer, Mr. Brown
commented:
"Brown wa making his report to hla

rhlrf. and it Is utterly unbelievable that he
kept from Lorlmer the Informstlon about
the bribery of Berkemeyer. White, Link
and Holstlaw. Ixtrlnier I bound by the
testimony of this witness, the senate is
bound by It. It has a compelling force that
cannot be resisted In the light of this rec
ord, and when It is established In the proof
that Ijorlmer knew what Browne was do
ing. It Is established that bribery of at
least four members of that legislature was
committed with the knowledge and with
the consent of Mr. Lorlmer. and when that
fact Is established all disputed questions
of Isw are taken out of this case.
"The only theory on which the election
of Mr. Lorlmer can be sustained Is that no
one was bribed by Browne to vote for him.
If Browne bribed nobody, Ixirlmer knew It.
If Browne bribed anybody, Ixirlmer knew It
and consented to It and thereby forfeited ail
title to the office. And when the committee
agrees that with four votes bribed by
Browne. lArimer's election Is stilt valid,
the conclusion must fail; because, under the
direct and undisputed evidence of Browne,
as well as under all the other convincing
circumstances and proof. It Is obvious that
Ixuimer knew all that Browne did.
"There Is no escape from this conclusion.
A legislature composed of men chosen by
their neighbors to act for them as legisla
tors, under oath to discharge a public trust
with honor, forgot, and betrayed that trust.
The betrayal was on a wholesale scale, and,
after the legislature had been deadlocked
for nearly five months, It was out of rea
son, if not impossible, for an honest elec
tion of anybody to reBilt. The silent and
Iron band behind the scenes, knowing all
that was being done for him by his agents
and consenting to. If not directing, their
every act. was Mr. Lorlmer himself. Such
Is the story of this record and such should
be the verdict of the senate "
So serious did Mr. rtrown consider the
questions involved in the Lorlmer case
that he declared that a wrong Judgment
in It, "was likely to mean eventually the
end of the senate." He asserted further
that the Lorlmer election, "tells a story
of shame and Ignomlty unparalleled In
the history of legislation."
Oil District Swept by
Fire; $100,000 Loss
Derricks, Tanks and Rip Burned
Farm Property Destroyed i by
Flames, Fanned by Wind.
BARTLESVILLE. Okl.. Feb. l.-A fire
which has done over $ino,nti0 damage t oil
and farm property Is sweeping across
Washington county. The oil waste on the
Caney river Is burning for two miles.
Oil companies have 2O0 men fighting the
flames.
The fire started this afternoon In the
all pools near Toung's lake. In the northern
part of the state, and. fanned by a north
west wind, swept derricks, tanks and rigs
before It. No loss of life has been re
ported. A number of farmers living In the dis
trict were compelled to build back-fires,
place their belongings on the burned tracts
and flee.
It was hoped the fire would be checked
when It reached Caney river, but oil waste
on the water carried the fire to the op
posite bank.
A call was sent to Bartlesvllle for help
nd automobiles carried men to fig). the
flames. Persons living north of DeTvey
were greatly alarmed by the fire, but no
serious damage Is reported there.
Among the oil companies whose property
was damaged are the Prairie Oil and Gas
company, the Central Oil and Gas company
and the Caney Valley Oil company.

Warrant It In Calling for Books,
a Driver Had Failed to
Bring I n Chnrae.
Through a ruling made by Judge Evans
Wednesday In the J. J. Donahue ouster
case, the Judge may Inspect th books of
breweries for alleged sales In the redllght
district, but these same may not be In
spected by the attorney In the rase, nor
the sales be brought Into evidence unless
the proper foundation Is laid. The state
was practically brought up against a stone
wall when after three days of vain In
quiry It was learned that most all of the
sales of beer In the redlight district made
through William J. Boekhoff, a retail
liquor dealer. If made, were made by Nels
Plerson, who cannot now be found. Three
other drivers had been placed on the
stand, but said they had not sold In the
redllght district. As Plerson could not be
produced to lay the proper foundation such
sales wer not allowed to come In as evi
dence. The books might be produced to
verify the testimony of the men who hsd
been on th stand, but as there was noth
ing In the testimony to verify, this was
ptt necessary.
During the afternoon session opposing
counsel clash'ed several times. A. D. Fet

Constipation
Mun'von's Paw Paw Pills are unliks
other laxatives. They coax the liver into
activity by gentle methods; they do-not
scour; they do not gripe; they do no
weaken, but they start all the secretions
of the liver and stomach in a way that
soon puts those organs in a healthy con
dition and corrects constipation.
Munyon's Paw Paw Pills are a tonio
to the stomach, liver and nerves. They
invigorate instead of weaken; they nour
ish the blood instead of impoverish it.
They enable the stomach to get all th
nourishment from the food that is put
into it.
These pills tontain no calomel, no dope;
they are soothing, healing and stimulat
ing. They school the bowels to act with
out physic. Trial box of ten pills 10
cents. Large bottle, forty-five pills, 25
cents. For sal by all druggists.
