The House Declares Itself Ie-
cidedly in Favor Of a
Limitation,
And Refuses to Extend the
Territory in Which They 5
May Be Made.
Mr.. Fletcher's Bill Stirs Up
the Solitary Debate Of
the Day.
A Bare Quorum of the Repre-
SentativeS TpanSactS
Business.

Minnesota savings banks will not be
allowed to extend the field OF their
loaning operatiOns-not a little bit Ii
the disposition evinced III the house
yesterday is any criterion, bill to limit
the territory at present covered by their
loans would meet with favor. The pre-
vailing sentiment seems to be that
lOaus of savings banks ought to be con-
lined to Minnesota alone, so that farmer
borrowers could have show to get
needed cash with less trouble and at a
lower rate than under present clrcum-
stances. This conviction was voiced
all through an hours debate yesterday
afternoon on bill introduced by Mr..
Fletcher. of Hennepin. which debate is
given below.
Beyond the furry raised by Fletcher's
bill, nothing of even ordinary interest
transpired in the house. The attendance
was so light that even much of the time
given to general orders was spent IN
bootleSs talk. On many of the bills con-
sidered the committee simply reported
progress. which is in reality no progress
at all. Fifty-eIght members, just quo.
rum, were reported as present at roll
call in the morning. and Speaker Pro
lem. Wyman decided to 20 ahead with
business. Not new bilr was intro
duced, and general orders were taken
up. with Mr.. BjOIge in the chair. Action
taken on bills discussed is noted else
where, except in cases of reporting

Why Could She Not Burn the Book

SENATE ROUTINE.
Minor Bills Passed Upon in Ordi-
nary Se0Uence.

troduced by the judiciary committee,
and dealing with the subjects of trusts,
deeds, new trials, the probate code and
the matter OF witness fees, were recon-
mended to pass.
s. f. 1917, CRATES bill allowing an ap-
peal from the decisions of county super

Progress was reported.
The committee rose and the report
was adopted.
The senate took a recess until D. m

streets and highways, and coming
from the committee on munich
pal corporations, was recommended
to pass as the MuSkalIunge
bill, amending the game ami fish laws
the bill relating to the sentence and
parole of prisoners was indefinitely
postponed. House File 292. relating to

ties, was recommended to pass, but a
constitutional question was afterwards

referred to the judiciary committee
after short and decisive debate. Sen
ate File 3S1. emanating from the COM
wittee on sanitary affairs and quaran-
tine and relating to the state board of
health, was recommended to pass.
The life of Senate File 372. Sanborn's
bill, governing the parole system at the
state reformatory, was saved for the

when the committee arose, and it was

SHORT, QUITE SWEET.
Yesterdays Session Of the
Senate Was Both Brief
and Busy.
Senator TaWney Inveigled
Into Buying Cigars for
the House.
In Committee of the Whole
Many Measures Are Ad-
Vaneed.
Nothing Exciting and the
Usual Forensic Contest
Was Omitted.

The senators pretty generally attend
ed divine services at their homes ana
spent the Sabbath evening i'll the bosom
of their families. Then the storm yes
terday morning interviewed, and the
larger number of the whole found
themselves unable to reach the senate
chamber at the hour named for COM
mencing-lO O'Clock. The few that did
come had pleasure instead of business
for innocent diversion. There was a
passage of pleaSantries between PreSl-
dent ClOugh and Senator Tawney, who
deSpaired of getting a quorum, and he
moved to adjourn. But Senator Stevens
is a gluttOn for work. and he met the
issue with a call of the senate. 1t was
a little tough OH the Sergeant-at-arms.
for what was the poor fellow to do i'll
the face of the blizzard? He hadn't the
slightest idea of the whereabouts of the
delinquent senators. but Senator Ste
vens, with shlver, insisted upon the
call, and the sergeant had to make
pretenSe of hunting up enough senators
to make a quorum. Senator Tawney
still had no faith in the proposition and
undertook TO retire upon the subterfuge
of getting a cigar, President ClOugh's
argus eyes detected the move, and the
sergeant-at-arms was instructed TO deter
the senator from Winona.
''If the president DleaSes. Pll take
the privilege of going out to get a
cigar" pleaded Senator Tawney in a
pathetic tone
"The senator from Winona asks
unanimous CONSENT" said President
Clough, ito bring box of cigars for the
senate"
Il move that it be at the expense of
the president" retorted Tawney, and
smiled cOmplacently as Gov. Clough
suggested:
THAT Will be the course of the senate
unless objection is raised" The presi-
dent got the cigars, however, and then
he called attention to Rule 50 of the
senate, prohibiting smoking. So the
first hour was spent, but finally
quorum was reported and routine work
was taken up. With Senator Day in
the chair, considerable business was
done in the committee of the whole.

MANY MISSING
From Their Seats in the Hall of
Representatives.

Representatives.
On taking the chair after recess Mr..
Wyman anXiously surveyed an appalling
array of empty seats. but he ordered
business to proceed. No one raised the
point of ''no quorum" and Mr.. Fletch-
er. from the committee on judiciary, re-
ported back several minor bills, with
recommendations favorable and OTTER
wise. The report was adopted in a per-
functory manner, without any show of
interest.
The house then resumed considera-
ton of general orders, with Mr.. Vansant
in the chair. Very little talk was in
dulged in by members. Thirty-seven
bills were considered in listlesS fash
ion, some of them taking up only time
enough to read the title. and adopt a

ANTI-sCALPnRS' BILL.
Senators Will Hear Argument
on 1t Tonight.

Senator'S Will Hear Arguments
on 1t Tonight.
The anti-scalpers' bill is to have a
hearing tonight before the senate COM
mittee on judiciary. 1t is expected by
those members who are opposed to laws
of this character on principle that the
senate Will condemn the bill outright or
radically amend it. Yesterday it came
to the ears of the legislators that North
Carolina had followed the example of
New York and repealed such law,
which was enacted in 1891. The
North Carolina law, commonly called
the pennsylvania" law, from the fact
that the Pennsylvania Railroad COM
pany was the power behind the throne
in securing its passage, made it unlaw-
full for any but duly authorized rail-
road ticket agent to sell railroad tickets.
The North Carolina members of the
Ticket Brokers' association continued
the business in the face of the law, and
two of them were indicted. The lower
court found them guilty under the law,
and the association took the cases to
the North Carolina Supreme court. This
body reversed the decision of the lower
courts on the ground that the law under
which the brokers had been indicted
vas unconstitutional, and they were
dismissed.

NEW CAPITOL BILL.
Indications Favorable to Its Pas.
sage Tomorrow

sage Tomorrow.
Tomorrow afternoon the capitol bill
will be special order at 2:30. So far
as the feeling among the members can
be analyzed, there will he slight opposi-
tion, except on the extreme ground that
the state can get along for while yet
without new capitol. 1t is not aDpar
ent, however, that enough members
will take this view to endanger the pas
sage of the bill. Some objection has
been raised to the "three-quarter-mil
limit" provision, but it is safe to
say that the Ramsey delegation
will pull this pin from under the
opponents of the bill by accepting an
amendment il one should be offered, to
designate the present site, or so much
more adjacent ground as may be neces-
sary. Careful cansassing warrants the
statement that, barring any complica
tion not now in evidence, good ma
jority of the house will vote for the bill.
Talks with state officers have convinced
many members who were undecided as
TO what stand to take that new build
ing will be an absolute necessity within
a very brief period. The time in which
the building is to be erected is bound to
witness tremendous growth in Mime

SatollI Establishes an ImpOrta MT
Precedent

WEsTCHEsTER, Pa, March 13.-For
the first time in six years, yesterday, w.
A. Bowen, of Westchester, occupied his
old pew in st. Agnes Catholic church,
this place. Acting upon the then exist
ing rules and laws of the Catholic
church in this country as they were in
terpreted by the ecclesiastical author
tiles of that body, lie was excluded from
holding it by the rector, Rev. S. Spaud-
ing. The pew was yesterday restored
to him by the same rector. acting under
the advice and instructions which he
last week received from Mgr. SatOlIi at
Washington, whittier Father Spauld-
ing went in reference to a decision
pending the latter. The case is the
first OH record i'll this country where
the church has decided in an appeal
against decision of priest that all
Catholic children must attend the
Catholic parish school under pain of the
sacraments being denied the parents
who refuse to send their children to the
parish schools and of vacating their
pews in the church, and in this case it
has been decided against the pastor.

gage sales was recommended to pass
upon the senate going into the commit
lee of the whole III the afternoon, as
was senator McHale's bill concerning
deeds, mortgages and conveyances.
Senator KieSter spoke at some length
upon Senator Stevens bill, relating to
the administration of the estates of
deceased persons. He urged that it is a
mertoriouS measure. Senator Stevens
explained that it is curative act. Sena
tor McHaie offered an amendment so
that the heir may appear in probate
court by attorney or ia person.
The object of the bill is
TO protect innocent purchasers of
estates from the possibility of an
unknown subsequently appearing and
laying claim. 1t is Limitation act, Ill
other words. Senator Craven feared
that some isolated case may come up in
which an heir may be cheated out OF
the property that should pass to him.
A child would not know about its rights,
but after growing up 1t should have the
right to recover. Senator Stevens was
willing to amend. but he held that while
the bill as it is might do an injustice in
one case, it would do good in hundreds
of cases. The bill was recommended to
pass.
Senator Sevatson's bill upon lien of
debts aud claims relates to the same
species of law. 1t is copied from the
New York law. There was no opposi-
ton and 1t was recommended to pass.
Cholera Resolution Killed.
John Day Smith moved to recommend
the indefinite pOStpOnement of the joint
resolution asking congress for a strin-
gent enactment TO provide protection
against a possible cholera epidemic. He
said he did not think the legislature
should meddle with subject about
winch it knows so little. Senator
Probsttield charged in drastic terms that
the opposition to the bill seemed to be
prompted by the spirit tnat is so often
noticed IN The senate-to legislate for
the plutocrats and against the interests
of poor humanity. He urged the pas
sage of the bill, but Senator Smiths mo-
tlOn prevailed.
