Debate on Repeal Of Purchase
Clause in the Senate.
LEE MANTLE SENATORIAL CASE


WASHINGTON. Aug. H. Congress has
settled down 10 debate with degree of
expedition almost unknown IN its his
tory. and with an apparent d'etermlna-
ton 30 do something that promises well
for the outcome. Fortunately for the
majority Of the senate. the action of the
house on the silver questioi, relieved
them from the necessity of speedy aud
perhaps iliadvised action. Tho demo
cratic caucus committee charged with
the preparation OF plan that shall
secure tho adherence of the united ma
iority will therefore commenee its Ia
bors with more deliberation than would
have been possible. and il 10 not expect
ed now that they VIII perfect their work
which involves consultation with many
senators at each stage. much before tho
house has acted. The finance commit
tee will probably wait upon the action
OF the caucus committee. and SO the sill
yer question Is not likely TO figure ia
formal way in the proceedings Of tho
senate this week. IL IL entirely possible
and even probable that speeches will bs
delivered upon the subject, but If 50
they will be based upon soure such reso-
luton as that introduced by Senator
Lodge. calling for a repeal OF the silver
purchase section Of the Sherman act
and not upon bill regularly reported
from the finance committee and ready
for immediate action.
Lee Nantes Case
There is a strong disposition in some
quarters 10 I'LL q the time during the
week by the discussion or the Lee
Mantle senatorial election case. which
is in a privileged position and can be
called up at any time 10 the displace-
ment Of other business. The program
in the house has been definitely fixed by
the addition Of the order introduced
Friday last by Representative Bland
The time will be devoted exclusively %
the consideration Of the silver
question under the rules OF the
last house governing general debate.
Notwithstanding the apparent lack CT
interest IN the discussion manifested by
members Saturday. the number OF APP
pliea-ts for recognition already on the
speakers list demonstrates that the
period allotted 10 the debate. eleven
days under the general rules and three
days under the tive minutes rule. will
be all occupied. There are between
ninety and hundred names enrolled
by the speaker. the great majority OF
whom probably expect to talk the full
hour allowed by the rules. There are
number. however. who have stipulated
for shorter periods. generally twenty
minutes or half an hour. IL it appears
that the time for debate will be TOO
short 10 accommodate all who wish to
speak. night sessions will be held to
lengthen the period. but this expedient
il is believed will not become necessary
before next week. with the expiration OF
which the debate will be closed.

he replied that he didn't care

thing possible and that he had been
lately in consultation with prominent at
torneys There was no doubt that some
action would soon be taken. When Mr..
Nichols was interviewed he opened with
bomb-sheli by saying he had spent
several days In looking up authorities
and examining the law and that he
thought he had a good sound case.
When asked for some sort OK an opinion
in the matter he said there were several
and concluded: 1T is true that Warden
PARCEL came 10 me a few days ago and
wanted me to look up this matter OF
whom his term OF Office expired. and
since then l have given the matter
considerable consideration and in

Attorney General Ellis was asked IL he
had anything to do with IL. He fatty
denied any connection with the pro-
ceedings and said he had received no
notice Of the matter and therefore could
give no opinion.

FIRE TUG BLEW UP.
Engineer Hamilton Badly scalded and
Master Mechanic Injured

DETROIT. Mich. Aug. 13-The official
test OF the fire tug Detroiter took place
yesterday. II ended with the blowing
OF OF the cylinder head OF one OF the
pumps II occurred in this way. What
is known as the crosshead key. stout
iron bar about six inches thick, had
smashed right in the center. This CON-
pletely removed all support from the
cylinder and the pressure bursted OF
the head and sent the mass Of iron flying
through the roof OF the cabin.
Chief Engineer Hamilton was knocked
down and badly scalded. Master Me
chanic Besufait also received slight in
juries but he succeeded in shutting of
all steam Immediately when the cylinder
bursted. This saved considerable dam
age TO the boat and perhaps loss OF life.
The tug was at once taken back 90 her
dock. All the fire commissioners were
OF the opinion that it was well that tho
accident occurred when it did and not
during fire duty.
