CLARK MAY TAKE A WALK.

CLARK MAY TAKE A WALK.
Washing senate committee
on privileges and elections today decided
by unanimous vote to recommend the
adoption of resolution declaring that
Hon. w. A. Clark of Montana is net en-
titled to occupy seat as senator from
Montana
The decision was reached after two
hours sitting at which all the members
OF the committee were present except
one. The absentee was Senator Catfery
OF Louisiana and he wired his vote in
opposition to Mr. Clark.
The ballot was not taken until all the
members present had expressed them
selves upon the question, some oil them
speaking at some length and all express
ing different shades OF opinion.
Senator Harris of Kansas, indicated
the most pronounced leaning toward
leniency for Mr. Clark. He did not ex-
press any doubt that there had been q
lavish expenditure OF money in Mr..
Clark's behalf, and while not condoning
this course, he spoke in terms OF strong
condemnation of the tactics pursued by
Clark's opponents referring especially to
Congressman Campbell and former Sen
ator Whiteside.
He said that whatever Mr.. Clark's Of
fenses, they were but little worse than
the methods pursued by Campbell and
Whiteside in their efforts to expose the
senator and he insisted that if the report
was to be antagoristic to Mr.. Clark it
should at the same time relate in full the
course pursued by the two principal
witnesses against him

The Bird Caught.

Harry Saylor, of Deer Park, who
during the early days of last Septem-

Lovely out on the Mountain Lake
Park road and there assaulted and
robbed him of about $50 in cash, was
arrested in Pittsburg on last Thurs

who brought him to Oakland and

here. Saylor is kept pretty close by
Sheriff Oester to preclude any posi-
BILE chance for his escape from the

for crime committed between Oak

Fatally Shot by a Policeman.

stantly killed Owen Stowell, a driver
in the mines at Mt. Savage, in front
of the Queen City Hotel, Cumber
land, at 1.20 o'clock Sunday morning
O'Neill Immediately gave himself uI
to the sheriff and was committed tc
jail.
1t seems that Stowell, in company
with another mine employe, had been
drinking heavily during the night
and going into restaurant for a
lunch got into quarrel with several
other men, which resulted later in
Stowell striking two of the men in
the face at the Queen City station
At this juncture Officer O'Neill came
along and Stowell seeing him started
to run, but stopped and picked up
something, and when the officer ap-
preached Stowell struck him a pow.
erful blow in the mouth. A scuffle
ensued when the officer fired the fatal
shot.
O'Neill was discharged from jail
Monday afternoon upon the recon-
mendation of the grand jury. The
coroner's jury previously exonorated
him from the blame.
