HOW JAMES DELLEN NAS DONE 10 DEATH

erton, an uncle of the dead man. How
erton left home with Bellew and several
friends Oh the night of January 90, and
was with him up to the time OF the as
sault which caused Bellows death.
Howerton detailed the places he and
Bellew visited, telling substantially the
same story as has already been pub
lished.
He testified that four bottles of whis-
ky had been consumed that night and
related the story of his and Bellows
visit to the notorious "Buzzards'
Roost' on Alameda street After leav-
ing that place they started south along
Alameda street and discovered that two
men were following them. They turned
west on Second street and had not
walked far when the assault occurred
Howertons testimony failed to develop
anything new, and he was excused.
From that time on the state produced
witnesses who gave positive testimony
as to the guilt of the accused men, and
demonstrated the unerring and thor
ough manner in which the detectives
had worked up the case with scarcely a
clew to begin on.
ONE OF THE BUZZARDS.
Howerton was followed by Ella Lee.
one of the negro inmates of the infa-
nous "Buzzards' Roost." Her testimony
was important, as II connects Maude
Pierce as an accessory before the fact.
The witness swore that on the night of
Jan. 23 she heard Maude Pierce tell
Manuel Brown to go and follow How
erton and Bellew, at the same tima
handing him the billiard cue bludgeon
The cue, which was picked up at the
scene of the assault on the morning OF
Jan. "a was then offered in evidence,
and was identified by the witness as
the one she had seen Maude hand to
Brown.

SUBMITTED 70 CONGRESS
AFTER TWO HOURS DISCUSSION IN
FULL COMMITTEE THE TARIFF
BILL WAS REPORTED.
STATEMENT BY The REPUBLICANS
They Explain the Sugar Schedule
Decided on to Their own Satisfac-
tiOn-DemOcrats Wanted to
Talk, Put Were OutyOted.

Washington, July 19.-The tariff bill
was rushed through the conference stage
today after two hours discussion before
the full conference committce-democrats
and republicans-held in the senate
finance committee room this morning.
At the outset the democratic conferees
asked until Tuesday morning to go over
the report. saying this course was pre-
ferable to going over it with the republi-
cans. To test this question Mr.. Vest
moved an adjournment until tomorrow,
which was defeated by Il strict party vote.
The democratic conferees then offered an
amendment to the report, but were met
with the statement that it would merely
consume time. Representative Wheeler
(deml Of Alabama offered amendments
placing cotton bagging and cotton ties on
the free list. also proposition for re-
bates on these articles. These and other
were withdrawn, however.
as there was no prospect of favorable
action on them.
Shortly before noon Mr.. Dingley moved
that the report be submitted to the two
houses. This prevailed by party vote
and the meeting adjourned.
There was little clash during the dis
cussion and the democratic members of
the conference cOntented themselves with
Il protest against the report and the man
ner of agreeing to it.

been increased, but the presidents direc.
| ton as to rates and the ratification OF the
| treaty by the senate, which was the main
| feature of the senate provision, has been
| rejected.
| One of the biggest victories won by the
| house was in the restoration to the duti-
| able list of burlaps, jute and jute bag
| ging. cotton bagging, gunny sacks, floor
| mating and cotton ties, which the senate
| placed on the free list. While restored
| TO the dutiablc list, however the rates
are lower than they have ever been on
| this class of articles.
Another victory for the house was the
elimination of the senate stamp on bonds
and stocks. 1t was decided the machin-
cry for collection was too cumbersome.
Raw cotton is restored to the free list
as fixed by the house. The senate, with
the aid of some of the democratic SEN
atOrs, made cotton dutiablc at 20 per
cent.
The amendments, as agreed upon, will
go 10 the printer tomorrow and the com
plctcd bill will be laid before the demo
Gratis Monday morning. Assurances have
already been given by the democrats on
the conference that there will be no at
tempt to delay the report when the full
committee meets. The republicans be-
licvc the report can be made TO the house
early Monday afternoon, and if the pres
ent Intentions of the house leaders are
carried out the report will have been
acted upon before the house adjourns on
Monday.
Chairman Dnglcy expresses the opin-
ion that the bill will be a law and con
grcss will have adjourned in week.
The confcrees are generally cOngratulat-
ing themselves upon their work. The
Mckinley bill was in conference two
weeks and after n six weeks struggle in
conference the cOnferees on the Wilson
bill were compelled to abandon al efforts
ut adjournment.
Mr. Dingley appeared pleased with the
result and spoke in high terms of the
spirit the individual confcrecS had dis
played.
The democratic conferecs are by no
means pleased with the transfer of such |
items as cotton bagging. burlaps, floor
mating. etc, from the free TO the duti- |
able list and express the hope tonight |
that they may be able to reverse the CON
ference committee on these articles. They |
claim to have the pledges of the republic
cans who assisted in making these
articles free and in reducing white pine.
that they will assist in forcing their re-
to the free list. The republi-
cans, however, profess TO feel easy over
the ratification Of the report and say the
worst that they fear is delay caused by
long debate.

trict court today against J. A. Robert
