There is no talk Of any impending
changes among the officers and Boards

Il IS probable too. that what Is known
as the Whist Question will be consio-

the Seminary. published his views TO the
effect that the English Baptists prior
to 1911 did not practice immersion. These
views which were the result of DR.. Whit
Sits historical research. provoked wide
spread discussion among the Baptists in
certain parts Of the West and Southwest,
and DR.. Whitsitt was called upon by
many Of those antagonizing his views

the tragedy is supposed to have been the
work of Indians from the Standing Rock
Indian Reservation.
The bodies were found at different points
on the ranch, ind eating that the victims
had fled from their assassins The sus-
picion that the work was done by Indians
is strengthened by the fact that an Indian
was seen near the ranch shortly after day.
light yesterday. The bodies all bear
marks of clubs and knives, weapons which
the Indians are known to have in their
possession. The Standing Rock reserva-
tion is but few miles west of here, and il
is supposed that party of Indians got
away, and, infamed by bad whisky, de-
scended upon the ranch in the night and
murdered all the occupants.
The Indians could have committed the
crime and made their way back to the
reservation during the night. There Is
much excitement here over the discovery.

Reverses the Decision of
It's Committee on
Elections.
Seats a Kentucky Contestant De-
clared to Have Been
Defeated.
Minority Report Contends That Fraud
Vitiates Every thing, and This
View Is Sustained.

WASHINGTON, D. c., Feb. 1S.-In the
contested case OF Hopkins (R.) VS.. Ken
dali (D.) from the Tenth Kentucky Dis
trict the House to-day for The first time
this session on a direct issue of fact re-
versed the decision of its Committee on
Elections and seated contestant whom
the committee had decared not elected.
The case turned upon the action of the
Comfy Clerk of Clark County, KY, who,
without proper authority, had substituted
what was called in the debate an ''odious,
thieving coon'' on the official ballots in
place of the eagle-the chosen emblem OF
the Republican party of Kentucky.
1t was admitted by the committee that
this was a "transparent fraud" and that
it was done with intent TO deceive, but it
was contended that the mum Der of votes
lost in this manner was not enough to
overcome the sitting members majority
of 523 over his contestant.
Tue minority report contended that
fraud vitiated every thing, and that the
entire vote of the county must be thrown
out.
After an exceedingly animated discus
sion the House sustained this view by a
vote of 1877 to 81. On the only previous oc-
casion in this Congress where the Election
Committee received setback William II.
Moody OF Massachusetts,, who led the for
lorn hope in to-day's debate in support of
the majority report, was the successful
assailant. He made a minority report of

of seating Rinaker, but of having a recount

him and on a recount Rinaker was elected.
In the division to-day of the ten Repub-
Iicans who voted TO sustain the majority
of the committee three were from Massa-
chusetts, which led Handy (R.) of Indi-
ana to remark that 'Massach usetts had
slobbered over 100 much" an Insult to
Massachusetts, which Moody Indignantly
resented.
The rest OF the session was given up to
the passage of bills by consent, which led
the leader TO consent TO speedy adjourn

LONDON, Eng. Feb. 1s.-Quite a scene
was created in tie House of Commons to-
day by John Burns, Socialist member for
the Battersea division of Battersea and
Clapham. The occasion was the debate
OF proposal to erect new hall for the
use of the London County Council.
In the course of the discussion Mr..
Burns, himself a member of the City
Council, made an attack upon the Pail
Mall Gazette. owned by Villa m Waldorf
Astor. because of its opposition to the pro-
posal. The opposition of the paper to the
erection of new building on the site of
the present one was purely in the interest
of Mr.. Astor, whose house adioined
the Council building. In concluding his
remarks Mr.. Burns said he could stand q
decent duke or a militant marquis, but he
could not endure the miserable and un-
gentlemanly conduct of new millionaire
After further discussion the proposal TO
erect new County Council hall was re-
jected by vote of 227 TO 146.

tary of Stale for the Colonies, in the course
