by United States ambassador before
foreign audience, the resolution rectted,
were in serious disregard of his proprieties
and obligations and calculated to iniure
our national reputation. 1t concluded by
instructing the foreign affairs committee,
which was empowered to send persons
and papers, to investigate and report "by
impeachment or otherwise" Mr.. Barrett's
resolution had been preceded by ono OF his
colleague Mr.. Mccall, in miider tone.
Mr.. McCall's resolution went down be-
fore an objection, and then Ii was that Mr..
Barrett sprang his impeachment resolu-
tion as one constitutinga question of priv
ilege. Mr.. Crisp, the leader OF the minority,
made an unavaillng attempt to contest the
privileged nature Of the resolution. Speaker
Reed overruled his point OF order and the
resolution was thrown into the arena OF
debate, where 1t remained for three hours.
The Republicans took the position TINT
Mr.. Bayard's speech constituted an offense
against the country that called for n stern
rebuke, II not his recall The Democrats
took the position that Mr. Bayard's utter
ances did not by any stretch of the imag-
ination constitute grounds for impeach-
ment, Mr. Turner applautiing them and
asserting that they were not even breach
of propriety. They took the position that
the resolution was largely "buncombe" to
give tho Republicans an opportunity to
air their protection views.
Those who took part in the debate were
Messrs. Barrett, Dinglcy, Grow, Hit and
Cannon, Republicans, and Messrs Crisp,
McCreary, Money and Turner, Democrats.
Mr.. Hit, who will be chairman of foreign
affairs, advised Mr.. Barrett to amend the
resolution so MS to strike out the words
instructing tho committee to report by
Impeachment or otherwise and this was
finally done. Mr.. Crisp moved to refer
the resolution to the Judiciary committee,
which being done by strict party vote
90 to 207--the Democrats oontented them
selves with simply voting viva voce against
the resolution, which was adopted with
out division.
The senate was in session less than two
hours. The proceedings consisted of the
Introduction of about hundred bills and
speech on the Monroe doctrine by Sena<
tor Cullom. Mr.. Callom's speech was read
from manuscript and WIS attentively re-
ceived by the senate. he took strong
grounds for an affirmative policy in order
TO convince other nations of their error in
supposing this doctrine to be ilnpotent
for our guidance, and contended for the
proPriety OF congressional action, saying
that diplomacy had been sufficiently tried
and had been found wanting.

BOGUS AGENTS.
South Main Street Store Keepers
SwindIed.
A Man Pretending to Represent a
Boston Firm Collects Bills.

Detective Parker is trying to find the
palming himself off as an agent for
Fraser Brothers, coffee dealers of this city,
and for Dwinell, Wright q Company, a
similar firm in Boston.
He went into South Main street gro
Gerry store kept by Mrs. b. Atkins last
week and said that he would like to show
her new line of goods that Dwinell,
Wright & Company had just taken in
stock. She said that she owed that
firm bill and wanted to know what dis
count she might have for settlement on
the spot. The supposed agent allowed
her per cent. off, and pocketed the bal
ance of 1925 due the firm.
The fraud was discovered day before
yesterday, when Mrs. Atkins received
statement from the firm with a request TO
remit. In reply to her assertion that she
had already paid the agent, the Dwinell
firm wrote that it had no
agents in Providence. The case
was then reported 10 the police. and an
investigation has disclosed the fact that
the bogus agent has operated in most all
Of the small grocery stores
along North and South Main
streets and has succeeded in fooling
a number Of the Hebrew proprietors who
accepted his offer of reduction for cash
payment.
The fellow has been described as we'll
dressed, good looking, with a black mus
tache, and about 80 years old.
