cradle time and effort to the drawing
up of a plan for the organization.
E. A. Paradis has been the actlVe
spirit of the committee, ably Sec
onded, however, by Messrs. II. u.
Day and George S. Lanphere. Mr.
Paradis read a very voluminous and
comprehensive report, embodylng q
complete set of rules, articles of in
CORPORATION, constitution and by
laws, and contemplating a complete
transformation of the present or
ganization into one which should bo
Incorporated under the laws of the
state, with a paid-in capital, a gov
erning board and general manager,
the duty of the latter being to con-
tract for foreign advertising on q
basis Of the combined circulation of
all the papers represented in the cor
poration.
The presentation of this report
precipitated a debate which lasted
three hours, and which at times
grew exceedingly warm and often
acrimonious. Mr.. Lanphere sup
ported a motion to adopt the report
of the committee, and explained at
considerable length the purpose and
plans of the proposed organization,
and was confident that it could be
made to stand the test of time and
application. For a time it seemed
that there was little real objection
to the plan, but the question Of
patent insides was finally reached.
and Editor Lambert, of the Fergus
Globe, wanted to know why the as
sociation could not go into the
ready-print business while it was at
it. This brought Mr.. Paradis to his
feet to declare that no such associa-
ton could compete with the ready
print houses of the United States,
which covered the whole country.
1t was not SO much question of
saving a cent quire on the patents,
he said, as it was of securing dol
lars for new advertising.

Diplomatic ENDS LIFE.
Russian Secretary of Legation at
Washington Suicides.

Russian Secretary of Legation Mt
Washington Suicides.
WASHINGTON, Feb. 20.-First
Secretary Bogdanoff, of the Russian
legation, committed suicide this fore
noon. Mr.. Bogdanoff slept some.
what later than usual this morning.
At about 10 o'clock he sent his valet
out to get the morning paper. He
was thus left alone in his room.
Almost as soon as the servant had
quilted the house a report was heard
and some of the boarders, fastening
to the room, found the secretary
already unconscious, with a bullet
hole near his temple. He died with
in a few minutes, before medical aid
had reached him. He was about
forty-five years Of age and unmar-
ried. He was highly esteemed
among the members of the diplom-
attic corps. He had been suffering
for several weeks with severe pain
In his lower limbs, the result proba-
bly, of severe cold which had de-
veloped into grip.
Mr.. Bogdanoff left behind him two
letters, explanatory of his act. One
was addressed simply "To be
opened" and the other For rela-
tives." The latter was not opened.
Mr.. Bokine, the second secretary of
the Russian legation, opened the
former. 1t contained long gilded
card, on which was written in Rus
sian:
For a long time, dead soul, this
body is all too heavy burden to be
carried. For this reason 1 destroy
myself
The notes were written yesterday,
and after writing them the suicide
went riding. He was rather re-
served in his manner and has been in
Washington only a few months; COM
paratively little was known about him.
He served in the Russian diplomatic
service in Servia for eight years, then
in Bulgaria for two years, and then
in Brazil. He was charge d'affaires
of Russia in the last-named country
and conducted the affairs OF the lega-
ton during the Mello and Da Cana
rebellion. He was next transferred
to Washington, and came here about
two months ago, as first secretary of
the legation. He was born and edu-
Gated in Moscow, where he has a
brother and sister living, his parents
being dead 1t It is said that he was
a man of means and not dependent on
the salary of his office.

EXIT SILVER SCHEMES.

WoIcott's Resolution Encoun-
tered Strong Opposition in the
Senate.
WASHINGTON, Feb. 20. = Todays
session Of the senate was not very old
when matters took such a turn as to
make sure of the disposal of the silver
question for the present session. The
resolution offered by Senator Wolcott
just before adjournment last night
has gone to the calendar. Senator
Jones made a statement in the senate
that the friends of silver would not
i pass the silver bill.
1t appeared last night, after Mr..
Wolcott's resolution was read, that it
might meet with general acceptance
or at least that it would be allowed to
reach vote without creating delay,
but it became apparent, even before
the session began today, that it would
be antagonized as persistently as the
Jones bill 1t was apparently as OBJ
noxious to some of the anti-silver men
as the other measure, and was besides
not entirely satisfactory to the silver
Democrats, hence the decision to adopt
the more direct way by allowing the
Jones bill to be displaced without any
conditions.
The anti-silyer men had expected to
proceed with speeches against the
Wolcott resolution just as they would
have done against the Jones bill. SEN
ator Hill was prepared to read the en-
tire volume of, the coinage laws, and
would have sought to amend the reso-
lutions so as to make it conform to his
ideas on the silver question.
Senator Wolcott stated that while
his resolution would go on the calendar
he did not expect to find opportunity
to call it up again before adjourn
ment, and that he would not attempt
it in case it was apparent that if he
should do so the appropriation bills
would be imperiled. He said that his
purpose in introducing the resolution
originally hi! been to provide way
for gracefully retiring from the fight
for the Jones bill, and if possible at
the same time to get a declaration for
free and unlimited coinage, as against
the Jones bill. which is not a free COIN
age measure. He declared, however,
that the silver men had secured all
the practical advantage which under
the circumstances it was possible for
them to secure at this session after
the decisive vote for consideration of
the Jones bill

A LITTLE JOSH.

George N. Lanphere submitted an
informal and somewhat humorous
report Of his visit to Asbury Park
on the occasion of the national con-
vention, which was little later sup
plemented by an accounting from
David Ramaley, M. J. Bowling and
D.C.Lightbourne all ofwhom pleaded
guilty of having attended and be-
haved themselves.
H. P. Hall suggested the propriety
of some action of the association
upon the Zier patent medicine BILL
and moved the appointment of a
committee to wait upon the house
committee on public health, which
has the bill in charge. Luther Os-
born thought it was hardly wise for
the association to send commit
tee to the legislature, and then it
occurred to Mr.. Hall that the aSSo-
citation already had committee on
legislation, and he suggested that
the matter be referred to this COM
mittee. Nothing had yet been done
to formally commit the association
in it's opposition to the measure, and
a resolution was sent UP, drawn to
meet this requirement. 1t was de-
bated to some extent, but was finally

The secretary, NJ. J. Bowling, was
not present at the time for the near
ing of his report, but after some in
formal discussion he dropped in and
delivered the gem of the day in
report which, for brevity, compre-
hensiveness and precision will COM
pare favorably with anything yet
published 1t was as follows:
DOWLING}s TEN STRIKE.
Mr.. President and Members of the
Association: When, one year ago, you
honored me with the Office of record
ing secretary, I felt ambitious l feel
differently now. Soon after election L
sought for duties to perform. 1t is
different now. Then l felt that L
should be called upon to help bear the
burdens that usually fall to the lot of
an officeholder. I was soon undeceived.
Upon inquiry it was learned that the
duty OF the secretary consisted in 'lin-
ing up and looking pleasant This L
have faithfully tried to do. Upon every
hand I found any number of our "old
war horses ready to relieve me of

this has been successfully consum-
mated needs but the consideration of
the printed publication of the associa-
ton during the past year. Some of US
are so constituted that We-can't kick"
but that don't hinder US from doing a
heap of thinking.
During the year I have endeaVored
to secure a complete set of the pro-
ceedings of the association from it's in
ceptive to the moment you bade me do
it. I corresponded with a great num-
Der of our brethren, and, outside of
those found in the hands Of the treas
urer, one copy was accumulated, and
that came from Brother Peterson, of
Litchfield. However, the correspond
ence developed the fact that Brother
Irving Todd, of Hastings, has a COM
plete file. A record book has been pur-
chased, but found inconvenient and
useless.
AS delegate to the National associ-
alton. found that even the country
editor is esteemed by the people of
the effete East, and would recommend
that you do it some more. I like it, So
does Brother Todd.

MISS IRELAND AGAIN.
She Testifies That Her Aunt Liked
Hayward Real Well.

The attorneys were a little late in ar
irving yesterday morning but only
short time was lost. f. w. Springsted,
who went skating with Miss Gertie
Brown on the night of the homicide,
was the first witness. He corroborated
Miss Brown as to the two shots fired
about a quarter of o'clock. He
thought they came from the direction
of the tamarack swamp. He also no
ticed the two suspicious-looking men
spoken of by Miss Brown, and saw the
man running on Hennepin avenue,
whom he afterwards concluded was
Mr.. Erhardt going for the doctor.
Horace L. Weld, paying teller of the
City bank, testified that Harry Hay
ward had had large sum of money
in the bank.
Miss Louise Ireland. niece of the
murdered woman, was recalled and eX-
amined by Mr.. Erwin.
Q. want to direct your attention to
the night that your aunt was killed,
the Sd of December. Now, I will ask
you to remember whether Harry Hay
ward came twice to your room that
evening, once about o'clock, and once
earlier than that-half past or
o'clock and once at 7:30; the first time
he did not come into the room: wheth-
er he did not call you to the door and
ask for Miss Cling? A 1 don't remem-
Der. L remember he was there at half
past Z.
@. You knew he was there at half
past Z? A. Yes, sir.
@. Would you be apt to remember IL
he was there an hour before and ask
for her? A. Yes, sir.
@. Do you recollect his coming to
the door and asking? A. No, sir, 1
don't think he did
Q. Now, on the Saturday night pre-
vious, that would be the 1st of Decem-
ber, and Mr.. Hayward you say was in
your aunt's room with you and your
aunt that evening? A. Yes, sir.
@. What time in the evening did he
come there? A. 1t was few minutes
before 9 o'clock

needed a searching and severe COM
mittee of estigation-such,f for in
stance continued the senator, satir-
ically, "as the senate conducted
against the sugar trust-it is this
gold purchase"
After reviewing some of the feat
ures of that purchase, Mr.. Chandler
said:
There appears to be more below
the surface concerning this trans
action than the country is aware of.
1t is not transaction that congress
can allow to be uninvestigated. 1t is
SURE TO BE INVESTIGATED
by the next house of Representatives
1t is likely to be investigated by the
senate. And so, in order to see that
investigation thorough and deep, I
hope to see the extra session called"
Mr.. Cockrell responded to that
feature Of Mr.. Chambers taunt that
the appropriation committee was
loading down appropriation bills,
we'll knowing that an extra session
would be called. 'If any appropria-
ton bill fails" said Mr.. Cockrell,
with emphasis, ''it will be because
of the senator (Chandler) and the Re-
publican steering committee. So far
as the appropriation committee is
concerned, every effort is being
made to expedite the appropriation
bills
The debate reverted to the Indian
BILL although Mr.. Chambers sug-
gestions as to the purposes of the
next congress continued to be an in
teresting topic.
The Indian bill was not completed
when, at 6 o'clock, the senate held
a brief executive session and then
adjourned.

City Attorney Chamberlain ap-
peared at this time, and, on behalf
of Mayor Smith and the president of
the council, extended the freedom
of the city. E. V. Smalley extended
an invitation to the members to
round up at the Press club, and a
similar invitation from the Mime
apolis Commercial club was also re-
ceived. After a little further in
formal and general discussion the as

Several ladies were present at the
forenoon session, among them Miss
Pearl May Day, daughter of the
president of the association, whose
charming face is made feature OF

allied by sympathy with the asso-
citation, and has promised to be
brother to nearly all the rising
young men in the profession.
AFTERNOON SESSION.
The afternoon session had been
made a special order for the hearing
and consideration Of the report Of
the committee on business organiza-
ton At the meeting of the associa-
ton a year ago this committee was
appointed to draw up plan for g.
business organization, the purpose
being to cut out the middle-man in
the advertising business, and get all
there was in it for the publisher.
This plan has been under discussion
for the past ten years, and for the
past five years there has been an
unusual effort to form some such
organization. The last attempt had
more system about it, however, and
the committee has devoted consid-

bring about a rivalry that will do good
to the several printers, as well as re-
suit in a good job we'll done for the as
sociation.
Fourth-Let the officers officer the
association.
Fifth-Steer clear Of going into the
business of supporting an advertising
agent, and,
Sixth-Do unto each other as you
would that customers should do unto

THE EDITORS FUNCTION.

''It is, perhaps, we'll for me to
say that in my judgment your able
committee has formulated an entire
1y practical plan for a business or
ganization; one almost perfect in de-
sign, and one which, while embody-
ing all the social and other desirable
features of our present organization,
excluding none from affiliatiOn, yet
one that is endowed with an author
ity under the law and capacity for
practical benefit which, it would
seem, cannot be improved. It's adop-
ton or rejection rests with you, and
it's successful administration, if
adopted, depends entirely upon those
whom you may elect to conduct its
affairs.
The president also touched upon
the question of newspaper legisla-
ton, and stated that the committee
on legislation was carefully consid-
ering all pending legislation affect

sent, and the freedom of the city,
with all the hereditamentS and ap-
purtenanceS thereuntO pertaining
was extended by proxy. Vice Presi-
dent Hamlin, of the Commercial club,
who had also been slated for an ef-
fort in the oratorical line, was pres
ent in spirit only, and as the ghost
doesn't walk at such assemblies he
was noted among the absentees.
Without waiting for the appear
ance of any of the absentees, the
president at once plunged into the
reading of his annual address, which
was replete with wise suggestions,
reminiscent in its dealing with the
past, and lustrous with promise for
the future success of the association.
The address was devoted in a large
measure to the business organiZa-
tion proposed at the session a year
ago, and the president heartily COM
mended the work accomplished by
that committee.
Concerning the work of this COM
mittee and the place Of organization,
he said:
