The Effort TO Make It a Rider on an Ap-
preparation Bill Fails.
WASHINGTON, D. c., April 25.-In the
House to-day Mr.. Hepburn, Rep. Iowa.,
offered an amendment TO the diplomatic
and consular appropriation bill provid-
ing that all fees of every character, Of
fetal or unofficial, collected or received
bv the Consuls at Liverpool, Hong
Kong, Annoy, Canton, Tentsin, Hayre,
Calloa, Prague, Antwerp, Valparaiso,
Colon, Chinkiang, Fuchat, Hankow,
Bordeaux, Belfast, Bradford, Deme-
rara, Glasgow, Kingston, Manchester,
Vera Cruz, Matanzas, Baslee and Mon
tevideo, should be turned into the
Treasury and their salaries should be
their sole compensation.
Mr.. Hit said he was in favor OF the
attempt to correct the abuse OF the Zee
system, but he was not in favor OF leg
isating in an appropriation DILL.
Mr.. Dinemora, dem. Ark, eX-Min-
lister to Korea, opposed the amendme
as likely TO strip the consular service OF
its most valuable members. 1t would
not reform the service, but woHld de-
moralize commerce.
Mr.. Hooker, Dem. Miss }, declared
that this amendment was designed to
break down the diplomatic and consular
appropriation bill. There might be
abuses in the fee system, there might
be plumber in ia for the Consurs abroad,
but the Republicans had had this plum
der for thirty years. Their spasm of
virtue and economy now III became
them. As matter offact these abuses,
if there were any such, should he cor
rected by a general law not by rider
on an appropriation bill.
The amendment was defeated SIS to
127.
At $40 the committee rose and the
House adjourned.

discussion OF the beneficial effects on
the agricultural products OF this coun-
try which he predicted would follow
the passage of the tariff bill, and in
reply to question from Mr.. Alddch
explained that this would be brought
about IN one. or two ways; because there
would be- an increased number OF con
sumers for our prod and also because
OF the exchange OF our products for
those Of foreign countries brought
about by the freer trade.
The latter part or the day was occn-
pied with good natured banterng on

SHOT AT ROSSVILLE.
Mrs. Lew Sturdivant Puts Bullet Into
Frank Maxwell of Topeka

Mrs. Lew Sturdivant Puts Bullet Into
Frank Maxwell of Topeka
Frank Maxwell, a victim of a sensa-
ticnal shooting affair at Rossville, was
brought to Topeka this morning and is
now being cared for by County Physi-
clan McClintock, at the Bedweu hos
pital, in North Topeka.
Maxwell, who lives in Rossville, went
to the home of Lew Sturdivant, three
miles in the country, yesterday morning
to cut corn. During the afternoon Mr..
Sturdivant went away from home and
Maxwell went to the house to see Mrs
Sturdivant. with whom he was acquaint-
ed, having been employed on the farm
as "hired man" last year.
Maxwell and Mrs Sturdivant had some
trouble and Mrs. Sturdivant procured a
revolver and shot D. axwell, the ball pass
ing through his left shoulder making a
dangerous wound. An artery was sew
cred and Maxwell almost bled to death
before medical attendance was secured
Mrs. Sturdivant says Maxwell attempt
ed to take undue liberties. but he says
his actions were no worse than they had
been many times before.
Mr. Sturdivant arrived home soon after
the shooting. He was under the infiu-
ence of liquor and wanted to kill Max
we'll, who, although suffering from his
wound, ran out into near by corn field
in his effort to escape. He was suffering
from exhaustion and loss of blood and
fell down in the edge of the corn field
and remained there until his friends at
Rossville were notified of the shooting
and went after him. No arrests have
been made.
