resentatiyes has put a quietus on the at
tempt to amend the state constitution
and give women right of suffrage.

The officers referred to In tho above
dispatch are: Lieut.. Friend w. Jenkins
md Assistant Engineer Darwin w.
Merritt. "a
From the wording OF the dispatch tho
navy department thinks It is possible
that they were on shore al the time Of
the accident.
The secretary Of the navy received
another dl6patch from Key West at the
same time With tho above. but Ito con-
tents were not made public.
The orders for the lighthouse tenders
were at once sent to Key West In plain
language. thus avoiding the delay that
would have arisen from tho use Of
cipher. .lf
Ssccetary Long received Captain Slgs-
bees dispatch Out u few minutes before
the Associated Press dispatches from
Havana were handed to him. He re-
ceived the news with apparent calm
and his first act was to comply with
Captain sigsbee's request that assist
ance be sent from Key West. He i'm
mediately wired Captain Forsythe at
Key West to proceed with the naval ten
der Fern to Havana tarbor. a4t
Secretary Long then sent for Captain
Dickens and the two discussed Captain
Sigsbee's brief telegram. No other ma
val officers were present and besides the
secretary and Captain Dickens, the ma
val colony here Is Ignorant OF this d!sas-
ter. the greatest which has betallen the
American navy since the disaster ut
Apla many years ago. a.
The secretary Is inclined to believe
that most OF the officers OF the Maine
were on shore at the time OF the accident
as It was early in the night. While
neither the secretary nor Captain Dick
ems are inclined to discuss the probable
cause Of the accident several suggestions
were ventured upon.

was no morning session OF the Martin
trial to-day, because of tho election.
When the hearing was resumed this
afternoon, John Platek told about the
march to West Hazleton and said that
the sheriff Nourished his revolver very
freely, and told the strikers they had
better 60 home or there would trouble.
When they arrived at Lattimer tho
deputies were waiting Tor them with
their. guns ready. When the shooting
commenced the witness said he stood
atill and was so frightened he could not
move for minute or two. Then he
started to run. but had gone only about
two hundred yards when he was shot In
the left leg, the ball passing through the
calf, He exhibited the wound to the
Jury, He said he saw number OF men
fall, most OF them in the ditch along
side the railroad track.
When asked if the sheriff did any
shooting, he said: HE had O revolver.
but what he did with It could not
say."
The cross. s.examlnation Of Platek
brought out the fact that the Harwood
men stopped work upon the order Of
their bosses, who said that as soon as
the McAdoo strikers approached they
should leave the colliery. They did so.
The McAdoo men were armed with
sticks. He also said that, as one OF the
committeeman. he proposed going over
to Lattimer alone, but as some Of the
strikers said they would beat him II he
did, he went with the crowd.
X Casper Wishnlsk! swore that the sher-
If fired the first shot and the man he
fred at fell. Witness was about twen-
ty yards away at the time and says
the sheriff stepped to the side OF the
road, aimed his revolver and fired. A
man standing about three yards away
Z fell. I do not know the mans name.
The witness ran away and reached n
point nearby, two hundreds yards away
from the deputies, before being hit. He
then got bullet In the left leg below
the knee and In the right thigh. Neither
wound was seriouz.
Asked II he knew any OF the deputies
who did the shooting at Lattlmer. he
eaid he could pick out some and walk
ing down to where they sat he indica-
ted sixteen OF them. They are Schuy-
Ter, Rigway, Frank CLARK, Thomas Hall,
A. E. Hess. Stephens Jones, George
Ferry James Ferry. Joseph Sobers,
Alonzo L. Dodson. R. C. Jones. John
Turner, Henry Manley, A. NJ. Eby. John
Cook. A. P. Platt and Charles Houck.
He also pointed out the sheriff.
Then he showed, using a gun s!mi-
lar to those furnished the deputies.
how the deputies had aimed them at
various strikers as they fed. The cross
examination failed to break down any
Of the evidence about the sheriff firing
the first shot and hitting man.

Pacific hallway Matters In Sennte-Buly
Dny In the Housc.
WASHINGTON. D. c.. Feb. 15.-A
resolution OF inquiry offered yesterday
by Mr.. Harris, of Kansas, precipitated
spirited discussion OF the Pacific rail-
way in the senate to-day. The resolu-
tlon called upon the attorney general
for the reasons which induced him to
abandon his plan for redeeming the
first mortgage bonds OF the Kansas Pa
clfic branch Of the Union Pacific and
having the road operated By a receiver.
Mr.. Harris denounced the present plan
to sell the road at the bid of the reor-
gan!zation committee as defrauding the
government OF something more than
six million.
Mr.. Foraker, OF Ohio, explained the
view taken Of the matter by the admin
istration showing the President was con-
vinced the Reorganization committee
proposed to pay for the road all that It
was worth. The resolution was finally
passed In amended form.
