CONSIDERATION OF BILL.

WASHINGTON. December S.-When
the Senate Committee on Foreign Re
lations today pus over till next week
consideration OF Hawaiian legislation,
it was with . feeling on the part Of the
members that there Will be hard fight
before there is any final settlement OF
the question. Many Senators appear
reluctant TO take up the problem until
il may be handled altogether.
While this is the condition Of the
general bill there is a growing belief
that the bill extending the customs and
navigation laws must be rushed
through. 1t is stated on authority here
that there are now under way plans for
the importation of immense amounts
of merchandise into Hawaii, which
pays the small tariff of the Islands and
which is destined for entry into this
country at a clear saving of something
like 40 per cent. ad valOrem on the
goods. From Hawaii the purchasers
expect TO ship the goods into the Unit
ed States without the payment of duty
Senator Perkins will at once confer
with Payne and Elkins, who introduce
ed the customs bill and endeavor to
have them put into the measure con-
tract labor. and exclusion clauses, as
| these are all subjects which come under
| the treasury. Inere VIII De put JnaL
one department concerned in the bill,
which it is hoped will be put through,
even if the general bill shall fail.
| The Hawaiian bill was only cOnsid-
cred in a very general way today, the
committee deciding TO postpone the de-
| tail work upon it for week. This de-
cision was reached because the full re-
port of the Commission had not been
printed. At the meeting next Wednes-
| day the measure will be taken up, sec
! ton by section, and the whole matter
will be very carefully considered with
the view of presenting it in as perfect
shape as possible to the Senate
Senators Cullom and Morgan, who
are members of the Commission and
also members of the committee were
present at today's meeting and ex-
planned many of the general features
| of the bill.
Some of the members of the commit
tee indicated a desire TO amend the bill
in some particulars. Senator Turpie
was among those who showed such g
disposition. His objection TO the bill as
reported, was on account of the provis-
lion for a Congressional Delegate. The
supporters of the bill indicated a will
ingness to strike out this provision
and it looks as if it will be done.

SEMINOLE LYNCHING.
Details Of the eBurnInR--BaptistP Preacher
Prsys for the Victims. and Holds
Rifle In his Hand. IT'S Said.

Washington, Feb. s. The
attorney general sent TO tn,
senate a letter written by As.
sistant United States Attorney
McMachin, giving the results
of his investigation into the re-
cent burning of two Seminole
Indians in Oklahoma by a mob.
He says that the sentiment in
the neighborhOod of the crime
is all with the mob. and he was
informed that it would not be
well for him or any other per-
son to go into that locality if il
was known that the object was
to locate the conspirators.
McMachin's letter tells in the
main an old story, but he gives
some new details.
McGeisey was, he says, the
first of the Indians to move a
muscle after the torch was ap-
piled, and he did not move un-
til the flesh was beginning to
drop from their limbs and was
beginning to touch his ears.
He then gave a loud whoop,
and bent over as far as the
chain would allow him and
sucking in the leaping flames,
sank down and expired without
showing any more sign of pain.
mot so with Palmer Samp-
son. He did not move until af
ter McGeisey had inhaled the
flames. Then he commenced
kicking with both feet, throw
ing burning pieces of wood
twenty-five or thirty feet away.
1t was with difficulty that they
succeeded in getting him
burned"
Mr.. McMachin saws that q
Baptist preacher named Hiram
Holt prayed for the two Indians
before their execution and that
as he knelt in prayer he held a
rifle in his hand.

sity for sewers in the street and ii would
not be well to improve ii until the sewers
are laid. For this reason the property own
ers asked that the improvement be post
poned until next year. Still, if the board in
sists on improving the street this year the
property owners are equally insistent that
the Improvement be of block. The matter
is hanging fire, but it is said in the office
of the board. it will be decided before
long
Besides the Delaware-street improvement
the clerk of the board said yesterday the
Pennsylvania-street improvement between
Washington street and Ohio street is the
only one of Importance to be made this
year. All other Improvements projected are
for gravel roadways and cement walks of
minor length in different parts of the city.
The Pennsylvania street Improvement Will
consist of resurfacing the present asphalt
pavement, as was done on Washington
street. The space between the street-car
tracks will be paved with brick at the ex-
pense of the Street-car company. The gut
tiers will be paved with brick four feet out
from the curb. A resolution for this i'm
provement has been adopted by the board
and the property owners have not pre-
scented remonstrance against it. The pres
ent pavement is full of holes and ruts.
though it has been patched so often that it
has seemed there has never been a time
during the day that the strangling fumes of
burning asphalt with hot irons has not
arisen.

CAPT. j. w. DODD DEAD
HAD BEEN AUDITOR OF STATE AND
ASSISTANT POSTMASTER HERE.
Served Through the Mexican War as
an Onicer-FOrmerly Senator
Turpie's Secretary.

Capt. John w. Dodd, once auditor of
state, died yesterday afternoon at 1890
o'clock at his home, 924 North Illinois street
He had been ill for four years with nervous
disorder, but he had survived many at
lacks Of his illness his death was unex-
pected. The last attack began three weeks
ago, and from that time until his death he
was confined to his bed The funeral will
probably be held tomorrow. 1t has not
been decided whether to inter the remains
at Marion, Captain Dodds old home, or
at Crown Hill Cemetery in this city.
Captain Dodd was born in jefferson coun-
ty, New York, in 1920 In 1882 his family
moved to Toledo, but he stopped at Buffalo
to finish his education. He took several
courses in a medical college. In 1898 he
moved to Marion. He was in business there
for time, edited a newspaper and served
as postmaster When the Mexican war
broke out he organized a company and in
1S47 the company became one of the Fourth
Indiana Volunteers. The regiment went to
Mexico. Captain Dodd was then a first
lieutenant. He was made adjutant of the
regiment and he returned to Marion captain
of the company. The regiment served
through the war and was engaged in most
of the battles. The regiment returned in
1875, ana the next year captain DOdd was
appointed clerk of the House of Representa-
tives. He returned to the Legislature at
the next session as the representative of
Grant county. From this time on he en-
gagged actively in Democratic politics, but
he was defeated when he ran for repre-
sentative the second time. He was can
didate on the state Democratic ticket, which
Governor Willard headed, and in 1856 was
elected auditor of state. His family then
came to this city to make it's home and has
lived here since. Captain Dodd served two
terms as auditor. When the civil war
opened his physical condition prevented him
from entering the service. He was Union
ist and anti-slavery man. Between the
years 1868 and 1868 he was engaged in the
wholesale grocery business. He was assist
ant postmaster under Aqulla Jones He be-
came Senator Turpies private secretary in
1892 and continued until 1894. His family at
tribute his physical breakdown TO the hard
work he did at Washington while he was
Senator Turpie's secretary.
Captain Dodd was at one time an Odd Fell
low. He was a member of st. Paul's Eps-
copal Church, but his funeral will be held
at his home. Besides his widow two chill
dren live after him, Mrs. Clayton s. Bur-
bank, of Marion. and w. S. Dodd, of this
city. H. H. Dodd, of Fond du Lac. Wis, is
a brother of Captain Dodd. He will attend
the funeral.

FISH LAW VIOLATORS.
One Caught After 81 StruggIe-Dyna-
hitting in the River.

Fish Commissioner Newhouse made two
arrests yesterday of persons who. it is
charged, have practiced Illegal fishing.
Early in the morning a warrant from Nor
gan county was placed in his hands asking
the arrest and detention of Charles r. Cald-
well, who lives short distance south of the
city. He has been making his home in
Morgan county, and it is claimed that he
used dynamite extensively while there,
creating havoc among the fish of White
river in that vicinity. Newhouse went
after him yesterday and from description
furnished, succeeded in locating him and
bringing him to the jail, where he was
locked up until afternoon, when the au-
thorities from Morgan county took him back
for trial
AS the commissioner was driving into the
city with Caldwell he happened to notice
two men in a boat under the Morris-street
bridge over the river using a cast net with
good effect. Without stopping he took his
bearings and after lodging his prisoner in
Jail returned to get the other violators. They
mad moved farther up the river, but he
found them and hid in the underbrush. He
then had a companion, who had gone with
him, call the men to shore and offer to buy
one of the fish. The plot was successful and
one of the men landed, but when he saw
Newhouse made dash for the water close
ly followed. They were in the water up to
their waists when Newhouse caught him,
and a. struggle followed in which the fisher
carried and went under. This gave the con-
stable the advantage and the man sur
rendered. He gave his name as Richard
Grouse, and pleaded guilty before Justice of
was fined S. and costs and was sent to Jail
on default of the required amount
