Washington, March 2.-The
senate is rapidly clearing it's deck
for final adjournment. The naval
appropriation bill, which ordina-
rily consumes the time of the
senate for several days, was pass
ed this afternoon after less than
five hours of debate. In that
time, however, it was amended
radically in one respect. The
Yprice to be paid by the govern
Fment for armor plate was fixed in
the bill at $500 ton, a reduction
of the amount fixed by the house
of $1l5 ton. In addition, the
secretary of the navy was author
lied, In the event Of the refusal
of the armOr plate companies to
supply armor at $500 a ton, to
proceed to the construction Of an
armor factory, to cost 81, 100000,
and placing in the secretary's
control $2,000,O00 with which to
\operate the government plant.
The fight for these amendments
was led by Senator Tillman, of
South Carolina, who made a char
acteristically sensational speech
in support of the propositions.
. Speaking of his amendment
Senator Tillman declared that
of dollars were being
bduandered by the government
in feathering the nests of the
Armor Trust, and he felt that the
senate and country ought to know

ANOTHER HOMICIDE.
YOUNG w. Il. MEETZE KILLS
ALEX. CARTRIDGE.
MeetZe Taunted Him With Being
a"Spy" and a Fight Ensued-
CARTRIDGE killed-COrOner's
Inquest.
Daily Record, March LIST.

Another homicide must be add
ed to the record of week. Last
night at 9:15 Alex. Cartledge was
killed by w. 3. Meetz, Jr., on
Gervais street, the result of a
wordy alteration between the
two which led to fight.
Both of the young men, who
are we'll known in the city and
had the reputation Of being men
of courage and sometimes desper-
alton.
The affair occurred in front Of
n negro restaurant on Gervais
street. The witnesses to the trag
cdY are exceptionally reticent as
to details, but the general facts
were pretty well esta blished
even last night.
Young Meetze, accompanied by
Charles Stone and a young man
named Riser, were walking down
the street. They met Cartledge.
who was coming from the direc-
ton of the union depot. The boys.
for they have barely attained
their majority, spokS to each
other. At least three Of them had
been members of the First Regi-
ment.
Meetze. it appears, tainted
Cartiedse about being "A "whiskev
spy and the latter resented the
imputation by calling Metze a
damn lie" Meetze replied with
another epithet when the two
men clinched and began to fight.
They fought for few minutes,
when Meetze drew pistol and
fired four times. Three of the bull
lets struck Cartledge. One just in
the lower part of the chest, an
other a few inches lower in tho
stomach and the third in the
right arm. Cartledge then fell
back to the steps saying that he
was shot. Meetze and his compan-
ions then left, going through the
negro restaurant.
Policeman Strickland and
Dowie came up and found Cart
ledge on the steps. They attempt
ed to put him in a carriage to
take him home, but he fell and it
was evident that the wounds were
much more serious than the off
GERS suspected. They sent for
Drs. knowlton and Gibbes and
in the meantime attempted to
get an ante mortem statement
from him. He was too weak to
say more than: Bill MeetZe
Charlie Stone and Joe-came
up and cursed me and then fired
on me. Bill Mectze did all the
shooting" This statement was
taken down by Mr.. f.. J. DAILY,
son Of the chief of police. 1t has
since developed that the young
man whose name Cartledge
didn't furnish is named Riser.
The physicians made a bliei
examination Of Cartledge's
wo unds and Immediately realized
their seriousness and ordered him
sent to the hopital. There he lin.
gersd In great agony until 1916
when he died. His father was
with him, as was also Coroner
Green, who tried to get an ante
mortsm statement. But youne

speech tnat ne proposed an alter
native proposition to establish a
government armor plant so that
the Unlted States could say to the
Armor Trust that if it did not
supply armor at proper price,
the government would manufact-
ure its own armor. He said it
was perfectly evident that the
two Pennsylvania armor plants
had pull, whatever that might
mean," in the other house OF con
gress, and were able to hold up
the price of armor.
Senator Tillman became in.
volved in sharp colloquy with
Senator Gallinger over the sub
ject of doing government work in
private or In government facto.
ries. The latter maintained the
navy department had held. that
its work could be done cheapcr
by private concerns than by the
government, and that accounted
Tor the fact that private ship
yards were busy and government
ship yards idle.
Senator T,llman favored the
doing of the work by the govern.
ment, even at an increased price.
for then labor, and not capital,
would receive the. benefits.
"Why," he demanded. care we
to yield to these armor thieves,
these robbers! Are we to permit
these people to order us to stand
and deliver! | have deemed it
my duty to protest against these
methods, and, therefore, have
offered my amendment. reducing
the price to $500 a ton"
Senator Chandler. New Hamp-
shire, supported the amendment.
Senator Tlllman's amendment
was adopted-34 to 26.
Senator Butler. of North Caro-
lima, then offered an amendment
providing that if the companies
refused to accept $500 a ton the
secretary of the navy should pro-
ceed to erect an armor factory at
a cost of $1,5OO,OOO, and appro-
priating $2,00000O for operating
the plant.
Senator Buffers amendment
was adopted-39 to 81.
After the bill had been report
ed to the senate from the commit
tee of the whole, Senator Petit
grew objected to the amendment
regarding the authorization for
the use of the Gothman gun and
proiectile.
Senator Bacon, of Georgia, also
made an argument against the
amendment, quoting from a re-
port on the subject of tests of
gun and projectile by Captain
O'Neill, chief of the naval bureau
of ordnance.
Senator Hanna replied to the
amendment of Senator Bacon
declaring that both gun and pro,
jectile had passed beyond the
experimental stage, and were sue.

amendment was agreed to, with
the amendment that the secretary
of the navy was authorized Gin

CAT TLEMEN TO MEET
Great Interest In the National Con-
ventiOn at Denver.
SOME NOVEL FEATURES
FIRST EXHIBITION OF RANGE
BRED GATE.
Trading By Sample Will Be New
Feature of the Cattle Business In
troduced-Salt Lake Candidate
For the Next Convention - Big
Attendance Expected.

Denver, Jan. 11.-Great interest is be-
ing manifested throughout the west
over the coming meeting of stockmer
here during the week OF Jan. %. Be
sides the National Live Stock conven-
ton, a range cattle exhibition is to be
held at the stockyards, the first exhi-
bition of the kind ever held in the coun-
try. Already there have been over
thirty cars of cattle entered. and the
indications are that there will be about
sixty carloads of calves. yearlings and
2-year-old steers. These cattle are
range-bred and have never tasted any
feed but grass and hay.
In addition TO the cattle for exhibit
ton, it is expected that there will be a
large number of stockers and feeders
here for sale, and arrangements have
been made for an exhibition of thor
oughbred bulls also. A large number
of cattle. feeders and rangemen are
expected to be present, and a new fea-
ture in the cattle business will be cat
tie trading by sample. Most of the
cattle on exhibition will be samples Of
big herds on the range, and the owners
will try TO contract their cattle by
showing the sample lots. The cattle
for exhibition are coming from all the
Western cattle states included in the
Rocky mountain country.
1t is expected that there will be a
struggle in the national convention for
the location of the meeting next year.
Among the cities that will be in the
field for the location are Chicago, st.
Paul, Omaha, Kansas City, st. Joseph,
San Antonio, Fort Worth and Salt Lake
City. Denver has had the meeting for
two years, and will not be a candidate
this year. A large attendance of stock
men and railroad men is expected from
all sections of the country, and espe-
cially from the western range country.
Many of the stockmen are coming here
for the purpose of trading, as we'll as
for the pleasure of attending the con-
vention, and the cattle trade for the
season of 1899 will be opened at that
time. There is much interest to know
how southern cattle will sell, as there
will be a big demand from the north
west this year. and at the present time
there is a difference of nearly s. per
head between what the buyers want
to pay and what the southern breeders
demand. Prices will probably reach
a basis during the convention

ty Days For Vagrancy.

S. P. Page was arrested yesterday
morning by Detectives Sheets and Gil
lespie upon information received by
Chief Pratt from Pueblo, stating that
Page was wanted in that city for OBJ
taining goods under false pretense. A
later telegram gave further details,
that Page was formerly engaged in the
saloon business in Pueblo and pur-
chased a cash register, but failed to
pay for it. He sold the entire business,
including the register, making a case,
it is claimed, of obtaining goods under
false pretense
Page says he is a druggist and has
been in Salt Lake about three months
He admits that he owed $50 on the
register when he sold his Pueblo saloon
business to c. ]. Trumbull. He claims
Trumbull owed his brother that amount
and arranged 20 let the debt go for the
payment on the register. Yesterday
Trunbull wired that he would call it
off if Page would send $50, which indi-
Gates an attempt to make a collection

Page declined TO go without requisi-
