SENATORCLARK
MUST GET OUT
Report of Elections Committee Is
Submitted to Senate.
HIS SEAT IS DECLARED VACANT
Resolution to Fire Montana Man
Unanimously Recommended
By the Committee.
S
A Washington special says: Senator
Chandler, from the senate committee
on privileges and elections, submitted
to the senate Monday the report of
that committee in the case of Senator
Clark, of Montana. The report says:
“The finding of the committee is,
that the election to the senate of Wil
liam A. Clark, of Montana, is null and
void on account of briberies, attempt
ed briberies and corrupt practices by
his agents, and of violation of the
laws of Montana defining and punish
ing crimes against the elective fran
chise.”
The committee unanimously recom
mends the adoption by the senate of
the following resolution:
“Resolved, That William A. Clark
was not duly and legally elected to a
Beat in the senate of the United States
by the legislature of the state of Mon
tana.”
The report concludes:
“The senate should, as a duty to it
self aud to the country, demonstrate
by its action in this case that seats in
the United States senate procured as
Senator Clark’s has been procured
cannot be retained by the deliberate
judgment of the senate. The senate
also owes a duty to the people of Mon
tana, who, conscious of the bad re
pute into which the state has fallen by
reason of vast expenditures of money
in connection with its elections, mani
fested such a public sentiment that
the legislature of 1895 passed a stat
ute which, if obeyed, would have re
deemed the state from its bad name.
Montana has a right to expect a
prompt and decisive remedy from the
action of the senate upon the report of
this committee.”
The findings are based on the fol
lowing admitted aud undisputed facts
appearing in the testimony:
“1. The expenditures in the contest
of 1895 as testified to by Senator
Clark and Governor Hauser.
“2. The law of 1895 relative to
crimes against the elective franchise,
limiting the purpose and amount of
political expenditures in any election.
“3. Senator Clark has been con
stantly a candidate for office. The
organization of a committee in his in
terest in the summer of 1898, to which
the report says: ‘He gave unlimited
authorited to spend money which he
agreed to furnish; an estimate, how
ever, being made that at least $35,000
would be necessary to secure the state
convention and that $75,000 might be
needed to secure the state legislature.
“4. In the canvass which ensued
the approximate expenditures admit
ted by the various membeis of hie
committee, and their assistants, were
as follows: By Charles W. Clark,
$25,000; by McDermott, $22,000; by
Davidson, agent, $22,300; by Well
come, $25,000; by Corbett; $5,000;
by Whitmore, $4,000; by Cooper,
$2,900, mainly furnished by Charles
W. Clark, and the amount of these
expenditures Senator Clark himself
paid to his son. The advances and
payments made by Senator Clark to
his committee and agents, as admit
ted by him, amounted to about $139,-
000.
“5. None of the members of his
committee or their assistants made
the sworn returns required by law,
nor did Senator Clark himself make
any return.”
Sections 6 to 15. deal with the busi
ness transactions of Mr. Clark and his
representatives with members of the
legislature.

The Nashville, Chattanooga and St.
Louis and Western and Atlantic rail
roads paid a last tribute to the mem

had served so long and so faithfully.
CONSTANT SRIRMISHING.
Boers Are Pressing British Gar
rison at VVepener and Show
ing Great Activity.
Latest dispaches arriving in London
trom tho scat of war, though meager
aud unsatisfactory, clearly indiente
renewed activity at all points where
tho British aud Boer forces are in
striking distance of each other. In
terest for the moment centers at De
wets dorp aDd Wepener, with fighting
evidently in progress.
A dispatch from Ailwalnorth of April
21st says there was heavy firing on
tho previous day between Dewets dorp
and Wepener, aud around Wepeuer on
Saturday, but no particulars have been
received. A special dispatch from
Masue dated Saturday, April 21st,
says:
“The investment of Wepener con
tinues. The Boers seem determined
to do their utmost to capture the gar
rison before relief arrives. Severe
fighting appears imminent.”
The activity of the Boers at Elauds-
Inagte apparently has failed to draw
General Buller, if that was its object,
into doing more than repel the attack
made on bis advance posts. A dis
patch from Warrenton, also dated Sat
urday, says:
“There has been intermittent and
ineffective sniping by the Boers, who
also fired a few shells, both during the
day and night at the station, the past
two days.”
Spenser Wilkinson, reviewing the
sitution in South Africa for the Asso
ciated Press, says:
“The Boers admirably understand
how to suit their tactics and strategy
to the country. Their art consists in
compelling the British to attack and
make exhausting marches across a
country ill-provided with roads. Thus
their first Btep is to surround in supe
rior force any isolated party of British.
This compels the British, if they try
to escape, to attack under conditions
which give all the advantages of cover
and defensive use of rifle fire to the
Boer force. The British commander
in-chief is then forced to send a relief
expedition from a distance. The Boer
force interposes, and the British, in
order to get forward, are again com
pelled to attack.
“This is the history of Wepener,
where Colonel Dalghety has 1,500 men
surrounded by Boers. General Bra
bant, from the south, and General
Bundle, from the west, have to fight
their way to the relief of Dalghety.
“General Bundle has part of his
own and General Chermside’s divis
ions, which if fully present would
make 18,000 men. His plan should be
to try to surround the Boers in front
of him, but as they ride and his men
walk, he may find this impracticable
and have to push them back slowly
by a combination of a flank with a
frontal attack.
“The Boers are using their small
forces with great energy. A day or
two ago they were reconuoitering Gen
eral Roberts’ position north of Bloem
fontein. Next they attacked Lord Me
thuen, who was retiring toward Boshof.
COLSON LIBERATED.
Jury Declared Slayer of Scott and
Demaree Not Guilty--Ova
tion In Court Room.
Ex-Congressman David J. Colson,
who was tried at Frankfort, Ky., for
the murder of Lieutenant Ethelbert
Scott and Luther W. Demaree, was
acquitted at 6:35 o’clock Saturday
evening. The trial lasted four days.
The jury was out only eighteen min
utes. There was silence as the jury
liled into the court, and the court
clerk, Ford, read the verdict.
As the last words were read, the
crowd arose and sent up a wild cheer.
Colonel .Colson, the defendant, was
standing-near the witness chair. The
crowd took no notice of the court offi
cers, wlie pounded vigorously for or
der, but piled over the railings sur
rounding Colson and insisted on
shaking hands with him. They gave
an ovation to the jury and Colonel
James Andrews, Colson’s chief coun
sel. The cheering was kept up till
Colonel Colson left the court room,
aud as he did Ho, it was taken up by
the Beckham soldiers in front of the
court" to which'the colonel very
very gracefully returned the salute.'
Colson received messages from all
over the state congratulating him on
his acquittal. The tragedy which re
sulted in Colson’s trial was a duel
with Lieutenant Ethelbert F. Scott in
the lobby of the Capital hotel in
Frankfort, in which Colson killed bis
antagonist, Scott, and Luther W. De
maree and Charles Jnlian, bystanders,
and wonnded Captain B. B. Golden.
Both Scott and Colson emptied their
pistols, fifteen or twenty shots being
fired in all. Scott had seven bullets in
his body; Colson was wounded in the
arm. He received the wound early in
the fight and it was shown that Scott
fhed first.
Colonel Colson was tried on an in
dictment charging him with the mur
der of Scott. He is also indicted for
killing Demaree, but this will now'be
dismissed.
