bribery Is CHARGED.
Two United States Senators offered
Money.

Money.
WASHINGTON, May 16.-Lodge intro
duced in the senate resolution author
izing the appointment of five senators
to investigate the charges of the at
tempted bribery of senators in connec-
ton with the pending tariff bill, and
also the charges published in the Phila-
delphia Press Monday morning contain
ing allegations relating to the influence
of the sugar trust upon tariff legislation.
At the request of Cockrell, the resolu-
ton was laid upon the table until to-
morrow. Rumors of the use of money
to influence action on the tariff bill
have been circulated, but heretofore re-
ceived little attention. 1t is learned
definitely today that intimations that a
money consideration could be secured
for votes against the tariff had been
made to the clerks of Senators Kyle and
formerly a member OF congress from a
Southern state, and who was identified
with the carpet baggers. 1t was repre-
sented Kyle was to receive $14 600 and
SIC, 900 would be retained by the go-be-
tween as a commission. McFarlane,
Kyle's clerk, promptly informed Kyle,
who is now in South Dakota and will re-
turn to Washington Saturday. It is
scarcely possible any syndicate control
ling the money necessary to attempt to
purchase votes would intrust it to man
who approached clerks.
Senator Hunton SAYS he never saw
the man who offered the bribe, the ne
gotiations being carried on through his
son. The briber offered $4,000 for
Hunton's vote, and the senator is satis-
fed 100000 would readily have been
given. 1t is understood that Kyle has
record of the briber's conversation and
proposition. The person to whom to
the description of the corruptionist ap-
plies is Major ]. A. Bultz of Bultzville,
N, D., once a member of congress from
South Carolina, and now farmer and
| lobbyist.

rrepannlng by Prehistorlc Man.

Not only the medical world, but the
laity also, have been highly interested
by the evidence adduced by Prof.
Horsley in a lecture the other day, prov
ing that prehistoric man in the stone
age frequently performed the danger
GUS and delicate operation of trepan-
ming. He had found sixty skulls in
collections of these relics, on which
the operation had undoubtedly been
performed. In one case it had been
done by drilling series of small holes,
probably with bone implement, and
then breaking small partitions and SO
operation seems to have been. per-
formed with flint saw. A third
method was scraping. This discovery
is the most important proof yet dis
covered of the high intelligence of the
unrecorded races.

Silver Platform.
KANSAS CrrY, May Is I'm the Mis-

morning motion was made to recon-
slider the vote hy which the previous
question was ordered ON the report of
the resolution committee. This was
laid on the table by an aye and no vote,
which left the question just as before

Protective Association resolution was
introduced by. Nick Bell, and it went
over pending action on the platform. A
stormy discussion ensued over the pre-
sentation of substitute for the minority
report by Ex-Governor D. r. Francis.
Roll-call on the substituted minority re-
port resulted, ayes 1917, noes 81 5-l2.
The platform as originally presented by

A Quick-Wftted Newsboy's Way OF Send
ing Home q Lost Child.
There was crowd on Fourth av-
enue, New York, the other day. 1t
was gathered about little girl and a
dog. There were a couple of police
men, a half-dozen women and a dozen
men. The little girl was lost. The
policemen knew it. the women knew
it, the crowd knew it and the little girl
herself knew it. Now the problem
everyone was trying to solve was
where the little girl belonged. That
neither the policemen, the women, the
crowd, the Recorder man nor the little
girl knew.
Where do you liveP'' asked police
man.
The little girl looked up in fright
ened way and shook her head.
t'Poor little dear-where does your
mother live?'' asked one of the women,
thinking to get at the problem in a
roundabout way. Still the little girl
shook her head. Finally newsboy
appeared on the scene. He eyed the
assemblage contemptuously.
Here" he said to the dog, ssgo
home, SIR Off started the dog, the
little girl hanging on to his shaggy
coat and the crowd following behind,
down Fourth avenue few blocks,
around the corner straight into the
arms of an anxious woman who looked
half-frightened to death, and who took
the little girl in her arms and hugged
and kissed her. The dog went quietly
into the house, the newsboy disap-
peared, the policemen and crowd went
away, and it was all over.

SWEPT BY A TORRENT
Wisconsin Villages in the Path Of the
Flood.
GREAT DAMAGE 10 PROPERTY
Factories, Bridges and Houses Des-
troyed by Angry Waters->A Cloud
burst in Minnesota.

MILWAUKEE, Wis, May 16.-The tor
rent of water sweeping down Black::river
valley struck the river falls at 6 O'Clock
this morning. Fire alarms were rung,
and the people hurried from their homes
to aid those living in the lower part of
the city. The dam of the prairie mill
checked the rush of water for few min
utes, bu. it finally gave way. Two big
bridges were swept from their fasten-
ings. and several small bridges followed.
Meally's starch factory was swept down
stream. Another large bridge went
next. All the families on the lowlands
were rescued at Bloomer.
At Chippewa valley several dwellings,
large planning mill, the city pumping
house and fire engine-house are gone.
The immense dam across BlacF liver,
near Black river falls, was in danger,
and the west wing was blown down to
save the remainder of the structure.
This sent great flood down the valley
on Black river falls.
The big dam and sluiceway of the
Glenwood Manufacturing Comany was
carried away with several hundred
thousand feet of logs. Every bridge on
Tiffany creek is gone. Many dwellings
in the lower part of the village are under
water. The Wisconsin Central Chicago
train is cut off by washouts in the woods
about ~ miles from town. A 10-foot
rise is promised at Eau Claire, where
the water is now very high, before 10
tonight. Advices at the railway offices
at Milwaukee report washouts on all
the roads north and west of the city.
No trains are arriving today from st.
Paul and Minneapolis. The extent oi
washouts could not be learned by off,
cials here, as the telegraph wires are
down or badly crippled.

A TROUBLESOME BOY.
Stays Sober Five Years and Now
Begins a Row For His Pay.

SAN FRANCISCO, June 1.-THE
Chronicle revives the story that
George Croker is the cause of the
trouble in the Southern Pacific cir
Giles and that he was positively
denied the privilege of withdraw
ing his share of the great Crocker
estate from the Southern Pacific
pool. The Chronicle says young
Croker made a formal demand
upon the Croker heirs, whose in
terests are managed by the Croker
company, to withdraw his fathers
estate from the railroad. He
desires to have nothing
to do with transportation
companies. When Chas. Croker
died, the story goes, his affairs
were so arranged that George
Croker was not to receive his di-
vision of the estate, for five years,
and then it was conditioned that
young George must cease his dissi-
patton. For five years the young
man has led quiet life and
as result he has received
100000 in the last four months. /
This placed him in an independent!
position and now he is demandingI
what he claims to be his rights.
The Chronicle states that G. p. Hun
tington's practical usurpation of all
power in the Pacific improvement
company has agitated Mrs. STAN
ford, as well as George Croker, and
both are determined to withdraw.
These demands for accounting, it is
said, will be resisted by Hunting
ton, who is said to have threatened
ii they withdraw from the Pacific
Improvement company, they must
dispose of their shares in open
market.

The victory Won by the Duval Ath-

Prominent Republicans from all
over Texas are here in attendance
on the State Convention of the
Republican League clubs, and not
withstanding the prophecies Of

early in the day, that the meeting
would be a hot one, the cause be-
ing an attempt to foist on the par

ed, would cut down the negro
strength to such an extent that the
whites would be in supreme
power. ...'

500 delegates in the city besides
large number of prominent Repub-

The convention was called TO o.

president of the State League, and
an opening address of welcome was
delivered by President Meek, of
the local league. ..s Do
This was responded to by Mr..

that a full ticket, both state and
