THE PORTO RICAN DEBATE.
MT. BrOvnwelI, Republican, Speaks
 Against the Tariff Bill.

Washington, Feb s1.-For the first
 time in the debate upon the Porto Rican tariff bill the voice of republi-
 can was to-day raised against the meas
 ure. MT. Cromwell of Ohio spoke against the bill He opposed it on the
 ground of policy and not of constitu-
 tionality. His hostility, however, was not so absolute but that he announced his intention of voting for 1t if the sub stitute failed. The other speakers to- day were MT. Ray of New York and MT. Long of Kansas for the bill, and MT, Henry of Texas against it. The republicans have decided to hold cau GUS or conference on the bill Saturday night. Although there are said to be between twenty and thirty republicans who are hostile to the measure, the re- publican leaders who are canVassing the situation say that not more than four or five will cast their votes against it. They also say several democrats Will support it. The only democrat who is outspoken in his advocacy of the bill is MT. Davey of Louisiana. He repre- sents one of the largest sugar cane dis trlcts in the south. Some others, incud- ing Mir. Meyer and MT. Broussard of Louisiana, MT Devries of California, MT Davies and MT. Sparkman of Florida are said to be in the doubtful column, but the democratic whip say that only Mr. Davey and MT. Sibley of Pennsylvania will vote for it. MT. Will son of Idaho silver republican, is also said to be inclined to vote for the bill. Some of the republican opponents of the bill who dislike to go on record believe that the way out of the dilemma in which they find themselves is to vote to recommit the measure. On account of the pressure for time the debate hereafter will begin at II o'clock and there will be night sessions Thursday and Friday.

Wesleyan Freshmen Unable to Carry
 Out Old Custom.

Middletown, Feb. 22.-For the second time in the history of Wesleyan the freshmen failed to fire the celebrated
 Douglass" cannon on Washingtons s birthday. The fake" cannon that the freshmen carried onto the campus shortly after 12 o'clock was quickly captured but a few minutes later a larger party of freshmen appeared with the Douglass" cannon drawn by two horses. The sophomores succeeded in spiking it, however. The scrimmage oc- cured when a third party of freshmen appeared at 12:15 with smaller cannon and until 1 a. m., when the upper class men called it off, there were the liveliest kind of scrimmages. Four of the men were quite severely injured, Hartzell, the football player, and Lufkin, the baseball pitcher, being among the num- Der. Some of the best men of both classes were unavoidably absent as they had been kidnapped during the past few days. The townspeople turned out in force to witness the event.

 Championship Games

New York, Feb 21.-For the national lawn tennis indoor championship, which began to-day in the Seventh Regiment armory, there are twenty-four entries in the singles and they include most of the cracks at the game in the country.

MISS NETHERSOLE ARRESTED
NEW YORK OFFICIALS TAKE UP
 W4R AGAINST "SAPHO.o
Taken Into Custody-Al Charged With Offending Public Decency- Hearing to be Held TO-morrow Morn- ing-PertOrmnMce of Play Not Stopped

New York, Feb. 21.-On warrant
 charging her with offending public de-
 cency Olga Nethersole, the actress
 was arrested this afternoon and made
 to appear in the Center police court.
 She was paroled in the custody of her
 counsel, A. H. Hummel, and the case
 was set for Friday morning for the 'hearing. The arrest is the continuation
 of the attack and denunciation of
 "Sapho," Clyde Fitch's play, now be-
 ing produced by Miss Nethersole at Wallack's theater. The play is stage adaptation of Alphonse Daudets novel of ''Sapho." The attack on the play seemed to como from all directions, the play being denounced by pulpit and press.
 With Miss Nethersole were arrested upon the same charge Hamilton Re- velle, her leading actor, and Marcus Mayer, her manager. A warrant was issued for the arrest of Theodore Mess proprietor of Wallaek's, but as MT. Moss was i'll, Charles B. Burnham, manager of the theater, appeared in the police court in his stead, as representative of the playhouse.
 The warrants for the arrests of the four persons principally concerned in the production were issued early in the day by Magistrate Mott, on informa- ton of District Attorney Gardiner based on the complaint of Robert Mac kay, reporter. The complaint sets forth that "the play Is the portrayal of the life of a lewd and absolute wo- man in way to offend pubic decency." District Attorney Gardiner in his re- quest that the warrant be issued all leges that "in a dramatic performance entitled 'Sapho' indecent pastures inde cent suggestive language against good morals and indecent conduct have been portrayed before public audiences
 The provision under which the war rant was issued is section 3S5, sub-di- vision II of the penal code, applying to a public nuisance, which, as misde- meanor, is punishable by Imprisonment in the penitentiary for one year or fine of $500 or both.
 Miss Nethersole was arrested at the Hoffman house by Inspector Thompson and taken directly to the Center street police court. She was evidently greatly worried, but soon overcame her ner- vousness. At the dictation of her coun- sel, she said in answer to the com plaint: "I have committed no offense against the good mofala or the law of this or any other country. I especially demand to know the source of this at- tack upon me and my propriety. The court cannot order too speedy inves oa counsel the hearing was set for Friday morning, without objection by the district attorneys representa- tives. After this matter was settled Chief of Police Devery ktated that he would not interfere with the perform ance of "Sapho" tonight or until the case had come up for hearing and had been disposed of.

SENATOR CLARK'S CASE.
Political Manager Welcome Testifies
 Before Senate Committed.

Washington, Feb. 21.-John B. We'll come, Senator Clark's manager in his senatorial contest, was the only witness before the senate committee in the Clark case to-day. His testimony was at no time startling. MT. Welcome placed his expenditures for the senatorial cam paign at not to exceed $25,000 and, at the request of the committee, produced his bank book and old checks to sub- stantiate his statement. He said that he suspected MT. Daly of supplying the money used in the Whiteside exposure. He also said that he had concluded that the Montana supreme court was preju- diced against him and therefore had not gone upon the standin his disbar- ment trial.

senator Qnnx,s Cnsr.

Washington Feb. 21.--An effort is to be made to get the question involving the seating of former Senator Quay of Pennsylvania formally before the sem ate for consideration. MT. Penrose of Pennsylvania gave notice to-day and that he would call up the case to-mor- row, As it is privileged question he may be able to secure vote on the taking up of the case for consideration and thus develop the Quay strength in the senate at least approximately. Dur ing the greater part of to-day's session the Hawaiian government bill was un- der consideration, but little progress was made.

Man Found Lying Dead on the Road
 Not Yet Identified.

Bridgeport, Conn, Feb 21.-No iden- tiflcation was made during the day of the remains of the man, apparently the victim of a brutal murder, that were found lying in the roadway on Osborn Hill, Fairfield, this morning, although the officials have been working most assiduously on the case. Everybody in Fairfield that could get to the morgue viewed the remains, but no one was able to give any information that would assist in establishing the identity of the unknown man. Though it is be- leved that the man was an Austrian farm hand, Martin Warnock, a Hunga- rian, who knows about every Hunga- rian living between New Haven and Stamford, stated that he never saw the man before.
 An autopsy was held this afternoon and it was officially given out that death was due to exposure and cere- bral hemorrhage. On the right side of the body near the thigh there was a severe bruise, which had the appear ance of kick. It is the supposition that the man was not instantly killed, and either fell or laid down in the spot about an inch and half deep and pre- sumably caused by the uprooting of stone was found full of blood near where the dead man was discovered. The autopsy disclosed no fracture of the skull, but contusions on both sides and back of the head were apparent that could not have been the result Of a fall No evidences of excessive use of liquor were disclosed by the autopsy. While the officials are strongly of the belief that the stranger was murdered, the motive for the crime is as great a as the victims identity, and puzzles the officers exceedingly.

GOOD BOOM FOR WOODRUFF
MICHIGAN REPUBLIC4NS GIVE
 HIM 4 WARM RECEPTION.
introduced as New York's Probable Choice for the Vice Presidency at n
 Bunquct in Detroit--The Statement

Detroit, Micf., Feb. 21.-Several strik-
 ing ovations were given tonight by
 leaders of the republican party in Michigan to the stars who appeared be-
 fore them on the occasion of the f1f-
 teenth annual banquet of the Michigan club, but the enthusiastic reception ac- corded to Hon. Timothy Woodruff,
 lieutenant governor of New York, far outshone all other features of the oc- casion. Introduced as the probable candidate of New York state for the office of vice president of the United States, MT. Woodruff stood mute before a long continued storm of applause. Major General Shafter. Governors Nash of Ohio, Shaw of Iowa and Pingree of Michigan all received welcomes and second only to that of Woodruff. More than 800 republicans sat at the feast The galleries were filled with specta- tors. The big armory was gay with pa triotic decorations. Washington's por- trait had the most conspicuous place; pictures of President Mckinley, Ad- miral Dewey and Generals Shafter and Alger were suspended from the gallery fronts.
 In presenting MT. Woodruff to re- spond to the sentiment, Washington and the Expanisionist," exUnited States Sentaor John Patton, ji the toastmaster, said: 'The republican party believes in young men. The Michigan club has been in the habit of nominating presidential candidates (al- luding to speeches before the club by Harrison, Mckinley, etc.) I am in- clned to think that lightning might easily strike a vice presidential candi date here as well. When in the next national convention the question is asked: Whom does New York want to name for vice president?" (because as New York goes so goes the union) will they not turn to that stalwart pair of New York leaders and bring forth the name of Timothy l.. Woodruff" Nong and loud applause).
