Lancaster Lawmaker Says
Four-Footed Hog Has Been
Much Maligned.

BILLS PASSED
: Froip a Staff Corraapondent)
Lincoln, March 30. (Special.)
.During the last week I have been
studying hogs and men, comparing
their, babiti, code of ethics and con'
duct under fire and I find that the hog
has been somewhat maligned and the
epithets-which have been hurled" at
him in some measure have been mis
directed. Believing that the four-foot
ed hog is gaining on his adversary and
should be encouraged. I vote yes."
' This is the way Senator Oberlies of
Lancaster explained his vote today
wnen the ssu.uuu appropriation tor a
hog -barn at the state fair gruunds
came up tor hnai passage. I he senator
had tried to get the appropriation cut
down to. $50,000, which was going
some for a Lancaster county senator,
and with the marks of the steam roller
which flattened out himself and more
than a dozen other senators when
they went up against the wet machine
on the dry bill yesterday, it is figured
that his explanation might have had
a personal application.
7 However, the hog barn bill was
passed, with Hammond, Strehlow
and Tanner not voting.
.. The senate refused to take an ad
journment over Saturday, on motion
of Albert. ; .
Bills Passed.

HOUSE DEMOCRATS
NOMINATE CLARK
Caucus Also Renominates All
Officers of Last House and
Ways and Means Body.
THRTY-THEEZ ABSENTEES
(From a Staff Correspondent.)
Washington, March 30. (Special
Telegram.) At the democratic cau
cus today it was decided to vote for
speaker, clerk of the house, sergeant
at-arms and doorkeeper en bloc, pre
senting the names of these four om
eials who held positions in the Sixty-
fourth congress; Speaker, Champ
Clark; clerk, South Trimble; ser-
geant-at-arms, Kobcrt B. Cordon;
doorkeeper, Joseph J. Sinnott.
The question of committee chair
manships was left open, except that it
was decided by the caucus to fill the
vacancies on the ways and means
committee by a resolution similar to
the one which will be offered on Mon
day ss to the officers, present mem'
bers being re-elected to that body.
' Test of Strengh.
To meet the proposition of the
democrats as to house officers the re
publicans may decide to present a res
olution carrying four names as pro
posed by the democrats or they may
t j . . c . i
asit lor a amnion oi tne question
wherein the test of strength will
come. Bipartisanship in organization
seems to be lost in the thoughts ot
those who believed such s condition
possible.
At the democratic caucus today two
jyeDrasKans attended, l-obeck and
Stephens. Lobeck having: reached
Washington yesterday. At the repub
lican caucus tomorrow night bloan,
Reavis and Kinkaid will be in attend
ance, Sloan and Reavis being ready
on tne ground.
Clark Likely to Win.
What action the committee of
twenty-seven republicans, of which
Sloan is s member, will decide upon
at tonight's session is problematical.
Their action will be presented to the
caucus tomorrow nieht. But with ab
sentees in both democratic and repub
lican camps, with the indeoendents
split, with dissensions among the
leaders of the two dominant Dirties, it
is anybody's victory, with chances
very largely in Champ Clark's favor
as speaker of the Sixty-fifth congress

the caucus, which was undisturbed by
any serious ngnis. i niriy-mree
democrats, some of them classed as
insurgents, failed, to ahow up.

. DURINGMINE HUNT
Twenty-Eight Ships Held in
Irish Fort While Destroyers
Remove Hundred Mines.
AMERICAN AIRMEN RETURN
Blank Date, March 30. The fact
that the Cunard liner Orduna was
stopped off the Irish coast by a Brit
ish torpedo boat destroyer and hur
riedly ordered into the nearest port
while North Channel was cleared of a
great flock of mines suddenly discov
ered there, was revealed by the ship's
officers as the reason the vesSi.'Vas
three days overdue when it reached
its American destination today.
Upon arrival in the Irish port of
retuge its officers said they tound
twenty-seven other ships had already
escaped the mines peril by putting in
there, including one American ship.
Two other vessels had fallen victim
of the mines, they learned, and had
gone down. ,
The mine sweepers worked two
days clearing the sea of the menace,
destroying more than 100 mines. Then
all the ships were ordered out at once,
making their way through a lane 01
protecting torpedo boat destroyers
and patrol boats until they reached
safe waters.
On board the Orduna were five
American airplane experts, who have
been engaged in construction and in
struction work for the French on the
western, front. It was learned they
have been called back here to assist
the development of this country's
aerial service.
Sinking of Glynymel Confirmed.
Sinking of British freight steamer
Glynymel, reported by Berlin March
26, was confirmed by members of the
crew who were passengers on the Or
duna. The ship was on its way to
London from a French port, the sail
ors said, and was torpedoed without
warning on March 9. The chief mate
of the steamer was killed and one of
the assistant engineers injured. The
Glynymel was a -vessel of 1,342 tons
gross. . .
Kills Suffrage Bill.
St Paul, Minn., March 30. The
senate of the Minnesota state legis
lature Wednesday killed the Putnam
Sageng suffrage bill, which( provides
for vote of women for president and
vice president, by a vote of 35 to 31.
Men Who Called r
General Strike in
Spain Arrested
Washington, March 30. A revolu
tionary movement',, which resulted in
the calling of a general strike, was
directly responsible for the suspen
sion yesterday by Spain of constitu
tional guarantees, according to an
official dispatch received today by
Ambassador Riano from Madrid.
The government having arrested
the signers of the strike manifesto, is
said in the dispatch now to be relying
upon the "common sense" of work
men and the effectiveness of the
measure taken to preserve public or
der. The country was quiet at the
time the dispatch was sent.
The text follows:
"A manifesto having been pub
lished by the representatives of the
workmen's union proclaiming s gen
eral strike without fixing a date and
clearly with revolutionary purpose,
and with the idea of disturbing public
order, which was very marked last
night at a public meeting, the govern
ment has suspended constitutional
guarantees, after having arrested by
judicial order the signers of the man
ifesto. Absolute tranquility reigns
over Spain and the government trusts
to common sense of the workmen and
the effectiveness of the measures
adopted to preserve public order."
