VOTE TO OOST
SMOOT FROM SENATE
Vote of Committee Stood Seven
to Five.
IS NOT ENTITLED TO HIS SEAT
The Serrate Committee on Privileges
and Elections Voted Unanimously to
Have a Vote in the Senate at the
Preecjit Session.
Washington, June I—That Reed
Smoot is not entitled to his seat in the
United States senate as senator from
Utah, was the decision of the senate
committee on priveleges and elections
declared Friday by a vote of 7 to 5.
The deei-.ou v. u.s on Senator Dubois’
resolution offered at the meeting of
two weeks ago, which was carried by
Senators Burrows, Dolliver, Fetus,
Overman, Bailey and Dubois, and Fra
zier voting in the affirmative and Sen
ators Foraker, Dillingham, Hopkins,
Beveridge and Knox in the negative.
'1 he vote of Senator Depew was not
cast. Votes were had on the consti
tutional questions of expulsion and
exclusion, after which the members
of the committee expressed themselves
in favor of a vote in the senate at
the present session of congress. The
resolution on the subject of .exclusion
was offered by Senator Foraker, as a
test of tile question whether Senator
Smoot should be ousted from his seat
by a majority vote of the senate, or
whether by a two-thirds vote of the
senate he shall be expelled from his
seat. The resolution declared that it
is the sense of the committee that
Senator Smoot’s seat shall be declared
vacant. If carried, this will be equiv
alent to a recommendation that he be
excluded by a majority vote. It was
lost by a vote of 7 to 5, the affirma
tive votes being Senators Burrows,
Dolliver, Pettus, Dubois and Frazier,
and the negatives being Senators For
aker, Dillingham, Hopkins, Beveridge,
Knox, Bailey and Overman.
Senator Bailey then offered a resolu
tion declaring the sense of the commit
tee to be that Senator Smoot should
be expelled from his seat, which would
be a recommendation that the senate
take the course required a two-thirds
vote of the senate to unseat him. The
result, was a tie vot-e, Senators Bur
rows, Pettus, Dubois, Bailey, Overman
and Frazier in the affirmative, and
Senators Foraker, Dolliver, Beveridge,
Dillingham, Hopkins and Knox in the 1
negative.
The debate during the deliberation
was indulged in by nearly every sen
ator. That devoted to the constitu
tional question of expulsion or exclu
sion was the most heated. Seuators
Bailey and Overman, who argued in
favor of the resolution, declaring that
the Utah senator is not entitled to
his seat, were of the opinion that af
ter the oath has been administered to
a senator, the only possible procedure
against him is to expel him from his
seat and that there could be no ques
tion as to this procedure requiring a
two-thirds vote of the senate. The
senators voting in favor of the meth
od requiring only a majoriy to unseat,
argued that the offense, if any had
been committed, existed at the time
the oath of office was taken and that
the protests are not in relation to any
offense of origin since the oath was
taken.
During the last week petitions have
been sent to senators from nearly
every state and territory protesting
against Senator Smoot being retained
as a member of the senate. The
signers were women and were from
nearly every state in the union.
The effect of the resolution adopt
ed will be to place squarely before the
senate the question whether Senator
Smoot be exculded and under the
form of the resolution proceed to un
seat him by thgt method.
ANTIQUITY OF FISHING.
The Art of Angling la as Old as the
Human Race.
The art of angling no doubt haj its
origin in man’s necessities. The earli
est record of mankind makes reference
to the taking of fish for food. There
are frequent allusions to it in the Bible.
Job, In the oldest book of all, says:
“Canst thou draw out a leviathan with
a hook or his tongue with a cord which
thou lettest down? Canst thou put a
hook in his nose?” Homer, in the
“Iliad,” speaks of fishing in these lines:
As bearing death in the fallacious bait.
From the bent angle sinks the leaden
weight.
And It is recorded in the “Odyssey:”
As when the angler,, his long rod In hand,
On a projecting rock assumes his stand,
Casts to the fiery fry the baited snare,
Then flings the wriggling captives In the
air.
The Romans, Greeks and other races
of early days around the Mediterranean
practiced the art of angling. Plutarch
tells of a prank played by the fair
Egyptian, Cleopatra, while out fishing
with Antony, “They wagered on their
angling, and her divers did hang a
gait fish on his hook, which he with
fervor drew up.”
The ruine l walls of Herculaneum
and Pompeii abound in frescoes of
fishermen. All along the track of his
tory are found traces of this gentle
recreation, showing the gradual im
provement from the hook of bone and
rude equipment of the cave man to the
elegant accessories and belongings of
the modern angler. -
not for Strangers.
“What in the world does that mean?*’
asked the traveler through a sparsely
settled region on the cape. “There’s
no such place on my road map.”
The man whom he addressed first
took a leisurely survey of the traveler
and his horse and then turned his eyes
toward the weather beaten sign which
bore the single word “Tolplm.”
“That ain’t a name.” he said, with
dignity; “it’s jest an indication. It
means, ‘To Long Pond one mile.’
“It’s plain enough to folks from near
by that’s hunting for the pond, and
we don’t reckon on strangers taking
much Interest.”—Youth’s Companion.

JAPAN READY TO
WAR WITH CHINA
Will Strike Blow in Order to
Raise Money.
CHINA MARKED FOR WAR COST
War Plans, It Is Said, Will Involve
Russia, England and Probably Other
World-Powers, in the Contest for
Money to Pay Indebtedness.
Victoria, B. C., June 1. —According
to advices received by the steamer
Kanagwa, the Eastern World, a Ger
man paper of Yokohama, published a
sensational leading article stating that
Japan is getting the army into readi
ness with a view to forcing war with
China two or three years hence.
The Eastern World says another
war with China would offer promising
prizes and a pretext could be soon
found. The paper goes on to state
that Japan's hopeless indebtedness to
England and America is driving the
country to plan an attack on China,
by this, the Eastern World says, Ja
pan would exact a heavy indemnity
and also make permanent the preca
rious tenure of Port Arthur and the
Liao Tung peninsula.
China is marked to pay the piper for
the recent war, the Yokohama paper
says, there will be no question of the
rights or wrongs of the case. Japan
must have more money, hundreds of
millions, and a war with China would
not only pay for itself, but would also
pay off the present debt and practical
ly make China the treasury of Japan
and would be popular. Continuing,
the Eastern World says:
“The attack will probably be de
ferred for two or three years, so that
Japan may be fully equipped for a
struggle ino which other powers, in
the first case, probably Russia, would
likely be drawn. China is arming,
but Japan will attack her before she
can bring her naval and miilitary force
to some kind of equity with those of
Japan. Whatever plans have been
made, must be executed before the al
liance with England expires and ar
ranged so that Japan may, of course,
much against her will, defend her ex
istence to maintain the peace of the
Far East.”

CONGRESSMAN ADAMS SUICIDES.
Wrote Letter to Speaker Cannon Giv
ing Cause of Act.
Washington, June I.—Representa
tive Robert Adaips of the second con
gressional district of Pennsylvania,
is dead at the Emergency hospital in
this city as the result of a pistol shot
fired through his mouth into his head
with suicidal intent.
The act was committed some time
between 6 and 7 o’clock Friday morn
ing at the club chambers of the Met
ropolitan club, where Mr. Adams ha 3
resided for several years. It was not
until 8 o’clock, however, that he was
found by Horace Clark, one of the ne
gro bell men whose habit it was each
morning to carry hot water to the
room. Upon opening the door, Clark
found Mr. Adams entirely nude, sit
ting upright in an arm chair. He im
mediately summoned the attaches of
the house, and a doctor at once was
sent for.
Mr. Adams then was unconscious,
and the physician who was summoned
pronounced the wound necessarily fa
tal. Mr. Adams was soon afterward
removed to the hospital in a patrol
wagon, where the bullet and some frag,
ments of the bone were removed from
his brain. He died at 11:30 o’clock.
In a letter to Speaker Cannon he
said that the fact that my personal
obligations exceed my resources is my
only excuse for abandoning he respon
sible position I occupy in the house.
I am willing to be buried at its ex
pense, but I ask that no committee be
appointed, or memorial services held,
as I have never been in sympathy with
the latter custom.
Hill and Harriman Will Agree.
Portland, Ore., June 1. —According to
the Oregonian there is a prospect that
the Hill and Harriman interests will
come to an agreement over the track
age rights along the north bank of
the Columbia river, and that a double
track line from Wallula, Washn., to
Portland, will result. During the re
cent visit of President Howard Elliott
of the Northern Pacific, he was ap
proached by a Harriman official with
a view to such an arrangement, and it
is understood that he did not look up
on the idea with disfavor, and will
probably submit the plan to President
Hill, of the Great Northern. If this
arrangement matures, it will mean
an easy entrance to Portland for the
Chicago, Milwaukee and St. Paul,
whose officials have been puzzled for
months for a means to reach this city.

BOMB THROWEB IS
PLACED UNDER ARREST
Confessed to Outrage and Sup
plied Details.
KING AND QUEEN TAKE A RIDE
As Royal Couple Passed Through the
Streets of Madrid, Without Escort,
in an Automobile, They Were Loud
ly. Acclaimed by the People.
London, June I.—A dispatch to the
Exchange Telegraph company from
Madrid says that the bomb thrower
has been arrested; that he is confined
in the Medio Dia police station, and
that he has confessed and supplied de
tails of the outrage.
Another dispatch from Madrid says
King Alfonso had an even more mirac
ulous escape than generally known. A
fragment of the bomb struck him in
the breast, but the force was broken
by the chain of the king’s Portuguese
order of antiago, which he was wear
ing. The chain was broken, but it
stopped a piece of steel which might
otherwise have pierced the king’s
breast.
Madrid, June 1. —King Alfonso and
his bride before lunch Friday rode
through the streets of Madrid in an
automobile, without an escort. They
were loudly acclaimed by the people.
Madrid, June 1. —The officials here
are beginning to believe that two
bombs were hurled at the king and
queen Thursday and that the missiles
exploded simultaneously with only one
vivid flash.
The scene which followed was like
that witnessed on a battlefield. Corpses
and pools of blood and wreckage were
strewn upon the ground, the front of
the house, No. 88 Mayor street, before
which the explosion occurred, where
at least 16 persons were killed was
covered with holes and blood dropped
from the curtains of a window on the
first floor. In the apartment of the
Doke of Ahumada, the Marchioness
Tolosa and her daughter were killed.
One body was jammed in the balcony
railing, and was removed with difficul
ty. No. 68 Mayor street and all the
nearby houses were surrounded by po
lice who prevented ingress or egress
until they had been thoroughly search
ed. A tenant on the third floor and
a young man who was leaving the
house were among those arrested.
The crowd tried to lynch the pris
oners, and the police only prevented
it by charging.
Numbers of people hurried to the
scene to seek news of relatives, but
they were not allowed to enter the
buildings.
The Marquis of Tolosa, ignorant of
the death of his wife, was one of those
who arrived and the guards at first
refused to admit him. Finally, how
ever, he was allowed to enter and a
heartrending scene followed.
The coolness of the young king was
marvelous. On reaching the palace
after the explosion, be sent adjutants
to assist the wounded and later sent
officers among the families of the vic
tims doing everything possible to con
sole with and assist the sufferers.
Queen Christina, the Prince and the
Princess of Wales, and he Archduke
and Archduchess Francis Ferdinan, of
Austria, had already reached the pal
ace and were awaiting the king and
queen with the infanas.
When some time elapsed without the
royal coach appearing, the Prince of
Wales and Infanta Theresa, who stood
waiting at the palace entrance, be
came deeply anxious and they were
more disturbed when they saw the
empty coach arrive with its bloody
horses. But the royal family were
finally relieved when they saw the
king and queen arrive. Queen Chris
tina embraced them and uttered her
deep thankfulness at their escape. The
Princess of Wales was also solicitious
regarding the victims and asked for
information about the fate of the Mar
chioness Tolosa.
It is asserted that letters were re
ceived in government quarters Thurs
day night saying that this would not
be the last attempt as the band of con
spirators had declared Its intention of
keeping up its effort.
This leads to the discussion of the
abandonment of some features of the
fetes in which the royal family were
to be conspicuously present. The
tragic event has already cast a deep
gloom over tfie festivities. The peo
ple no longer show hilarity. There
was a magnificent display of fireworks
with street singing an& dancing Thurs
day night, but they proceeded with
lack of spirit. A pall seems to have
fallen over the community.
The proximity of the coach of the
Grand Duke Vladimir, of Russia, to
the royal coach at the time of the
explosion led many of the spectators
to believe that the attempt had been
made against his life, but later it was
generally accepted that it was directed
against the king and queen.
The courage of the queen was great
ly admired. She was somewhat over,
come with emotion at first, but the
king, calmed her, saying that it was
nothing serious. Later she recovered
her self-possession and bore hersell
well throughout the trying ordeal.
Some of those who saw the young
queen alight from the royal coach,
just after the explosion, say that hei
bridal veil touched the bloody pools on
the pavement and that it bore an im
press of the terrible scene as she r&
turned to the palace.
Odd English Customs.
England can boast of more quaint
customs and ceremonies that have been
handed down from century to century
than any other civilized nation. The
sounding of the mayor's horn at Rlpon
is one of the most ancient customs in
the kingdom. It formerly announced
the setting of the watch, but it has now
lapsed into the formality of three blasts
given at 9 o’clock every evening at the
mayor’s residence by his official horn
blower and three more at the market
cross.
