The new viee-rpesident gave the sen
ate pointed and much needed admoni-
ton on the subject Of legislative action
in that body When the senate was
first organized. consisting Of but twel-
ty-six members. and all fully appre-
cfating the exceptional dignity OF the
body, IT could wen AFFORD to refuse any
rule that woud terminate DEBATE: but
since the senate has a membership
OF ninety, with a very large number
Of them utterly Indifferent to the dig
nifty Of the body. ii becomes a necessity
to adopt some method Of terminating
debate when it is employed solely for
the purpose of preventing legislative
action.
vice-President Hobart gave the whole
question in a nutshell when he says:
To o5struct the regular course II wise
and prudent Legislative action after
the fullest and freest discussion. is
neither consistent with true senatorial
courtesy. conducive to the welfare Of
the public, nor in compliance with their
just expectations. " This means that the
time has come in the judgment Of the
new presiding officer of the senate, for
the adoption Of rule by which de-
bate can be terminated by a majority
Of the body.
viee-President Hobart's views are in
accordance not only with common
sense, but with the general judgment
Of the intelligent people Of the whole
country. For a legislative body con-
sisting Of ninety senators TO place 1t in
the power of any one man to talk
against time indefinitely for the pur-
pose OF defeating legislation Is simply
a mOckery Of national authority and
Of the people. One Of the first acts
Of the new senate should be to adopt
a rule whereby majority OF the body
can reach vote at any time after
full and fair discussion shall be given
70 any public question.

THE ELLIS ISLAND FIRE
Is Supposed to Have Been
Set by Incendiaries.
INVESTIGATION WILL BE MADE
Ten Millions of Railroad Tickets Were
Thought to Have Burned-One
of Them Turns Up.

New York, Dec. 13-Facts have
come to light that suggest the posi-
.bility that the mysterious fire that de-
stroyed the great immigrant buildings
on Ellis island aefew months ago, was
started by thieves, who had carefully
planned a SO, 900, 900 robbery, says
the Journal and Advertiser today Ten
of the trunk lines leading to the West,
including the New York Central, the
Pennsylvania, the Erie, the Delavare
Lackawanna & Western and the, New
York, Ontario & Western, unite in
maintaining a railroad on the island,
tickets there.
General Ticket Agent Robinson, of
the Ontario & Western, says that on
the night of the fire conservative es-
innate would place the value of tickets
in the island Office at $40, 900, 900.
{. The tickets, with much cash, were
locked in drawers in wooden cases and
desks, and the entire parcel was sup
posed to have been totally destroyed.
The different roads posted notices that
if tickets of certain form and series
should be presented, they should be
taken up and fare demanded.
A few days ago ticket issued by
the Ontario & Western from Chicago
to Kansas City was received from a pas
senger and found to be one of the tick
cts supposd to have been burned. The
part Of the ticket calling for passage
from New York to Chicago has not yet
been presented.
; Now the officials are asking how
many other tickets out of the $40, ,OOO,-
900 worth are in existence. 1t is
deemed not impossible that the entire
lot was stolen and held until conductors
should forget the warning.
Commissioner Senner, who was in
charge of Ellis island at the time of the
fire, deems the hypothesis by no means
improbable.
1.-THE origin of the fire was never
learned,' he said. 'It began in a
tower of the main building some dis
tance from the offices occupied by the
railroad people. Every one of the gov
ernment guards were busy getting the
immigrants safely out. 1t is not i'm
possible that thieves deliberately start
ed the fire in the expectation, justified
by events, that the ticket Office would
be quickly deserted"
General Ticket Agent Robinson said
he could scarcely believe that any such
wholesale robbery had taken place.
ST have communicated with other
roads, and they have had no such tick
cts presented as yet. l think it more
likely that the report of sales for the
day preceding the fire was not correct.
OF course, though, if someone had used
that ticket. if it was honestly disposed
of, it should have turned up sooner.
An investigation will be made"

TRAIL TO kLoNDIKE.
Several Lives Lost in White Horse
Rapids.

Victoria, Dec. I3.-Five or six, and
perhaps seven, lives have been lost in
the White Horse rapids, Lewis river,
during the last two months, according
to John Hepburn, who arrived from
there today. A boat built for four or
six men was found below the rapids one
morning, but there was no trace of the
occupants. They must all have been
drowned. Other parties lost their out
fits, but managed to save their lives.
There is now very little open water
between the rapids and the lakes, most
of it being frozen over.
At White Horse rapids there are
about 80 people, and there are 80 at the
foot of Marsh lake. There are at least
100 more below White Horse rapids,
and many others have gone into thf
Hootalinqua country to prospect duril
the winter. Hepburn had heard of no
strikes being made on the Hootalinqua
or tributaries, but man named Davis
washed 81 800 from the river bars last
summer. Hepburn believes that rich
strikes will be made on the Hootalin-
qua this winter.
At Tagish house. the weather was
bitterly cold, the thermometer regis
tering 40 degrees below. People were
met making their way down all along
the route to head of Lake Bennett.
Among the goldseekers was a woman,
who was pulling her sled all alone, and
she was making fair time.
Lake Bennett was still open Is miles
from the foot, on November II, and
the mercury stood at "a below.

INDIAN TERRITORY QUESTION
Congress will Settle 1t In General
Bill,


Washington, Dec. 14.-The indica-
tions are that this congress will pass
general bill for the entire rehabilitation
of Indian territory. The measure as
now planed is to make it embrace
everything that has been sought to be
accomplished in the past by the Dawes
Indian commission, which is still nego-
tiating with the five civilized tribes,
but which will be here next week to
report the discouraging existing condi-
tions The bill covers all the questions
of citizenship, allotments of lands, dis
positions of townsites. mineral lands,
jurisdiction of the United States courts
over the present reservations and other
matters bearing on the extinguishment
of tribal organization. The first steps
in the matter have been taken by the
Indian committees of both the senate
and house.
1t is understood that in a few days
there will be session of the commit
tees at which these matters will be
gone over and steps taken in the way
of settling the problems by congress
sional enactment. In view Of the large
amount of work necessary to be done,
however, it issnot probable that any
bill can be passed till we'll toward the
end of the session.

want De LONE Recalled.

New York, Dec. 13.-Tte Spanish
colony in this city has been divided by
petition sent to Madrid at the time
of the assassination of Premier Canovas,
asking for the appointment of a strong
successor to Senor de LONE. According
to the World the petition was drawn so
as to attack Senior de LONE without
mentioning his name, and among the
40 prominent Spaniards who signed it
were several friends of the minister
who did not see any attack upon him
in the apparently harmless recon-
mendation. The result is bitterness
among the factions almost as strong as
their hatred of the Cubans. The peti.
tion says:
"For Spain to succeed in her rela.
tions with the United States she must
have in Washington representative OF
ability and frmness, whose heart will
beat with the pulsatlons of our mother
country, and with head balanced to
base all his diplomatic relations on an
indisputable right, and not allow the
right to be curtailed in the least by un-
founded demands or unjust pretensions

AN lMPRoMPTu COURT.
Trying to Fix the Responsibility for the
Smith Murders.

Hazelhurst, Miss, Dec. 14.-In an
open field, without house in sight, on
high hillside, with crowd of eager
men waiting to avenge the terrible
murder that has taken place in Law
renee county, in case a conviction was
reached by the impromptu court, the
scene lighted by Aaring pine-knot
torches held aloft in the hands Of the
waiting mob, the three negroes, Giles
Berry, Will Powell and Tom Wallen,
were standing trial for their life last
night at Bankstone Ferry.
The negroes were arrested with
Lewis, who was lynched Friday, at the
place of the original crime, but were
released on their promising to appear
next morning as witnesses. They did
not put in an appearance when the
made for them by the mob, and the
negroes were caught and brought bacR.
Then the suspicion that they were inn
plicated in the original crime arose.
According to their own story, they
were with Lewis the night before. The
three men testified that they slept in a
cottonhouse mile and half from the
Smith house, where the terrible butch
cry took place, and that Lewis was
with them all night; at least he was
there when they went to sleep and wa
there when they awoke the next morn.
ing.
There are about 200 men in the moi
constituting committee of the whole
for the trial. Reliable reports today
from messenger who was at the scene
say that the mob is very moderate in
it's acts, and has cooled down consider
ably. Berry and Wallen, though badly
scared, maintain their denial of any
completely in the crime.
A telephone message from Hon. Wal
ter Catchings, of Georgetown, states that
two other negroes have been arrested
on suspicion.
Wesson, Miss, Dec. 14.-The three
negroes arrested in the Monticello
neigh borhood in connection with Char
ley Lewis, the negro lynched for the
quintuple butchery of the Smith family,
after a long trial were declared not
guilty, but were given until Monday to
leave the county.

Insurgents Near Havana.

New York, Dec. ia dispatch to
the World from Havana says: An i'm
portant battle is expected hourly. The
insurgents have planned the most for
midable demonstration against Havana
of the year. General Parrados has
started from this city with strong
column of troops to meet the insur-
gents. Senior Caneljas, the confidential
agent of the Spanish government, went
with him to ascertain the real condi-
tions in Havana province.
General Rodriguez, with the COM
bined Cuban forces under Juan Del
gado Ladarez and Rafael Zeckardinas,
is encamped about 20 miles south of
here. He has fully 1000 men, who
are we'll armed and is said to have a
Hotchkiss rapid-fire cannon.
Emio Consalo has hanged Antonio
Rivera and a negro named Osman.
They went to Consalo from Blanco with
money and a proposition that he lay
down his arms and accept autonomy.
A note was pinned on the breasts OF
the hanged men announcing that any
one coming on similar mission would
meet like fate.
