THE SENATE'S RIGHTS

Argued From Constitutional Standpoint
By Mr.. Bacon, or Georgia.
The features OF Mondays proceed
ings in the senate was the speech of
Senator Bacon, of Georgia, on his
resolution declaring the right of the
senate to call for copies of any papers,
records or documents of any depart
ment of the government. The resolu-
tion was introduced some weeks ago
and grew out Of the refusal of Secre-
tary of War Root, upon the advice
aud approval of President Mckinley,
to send to the senate copy of the re-
rot by Expert Examiner Lawshe,
who unearthed the Neely and Rath-
bone frauds in Cuba.
The refusal was based on the ground
tia it was incompatible with public
in crest to make public the report.
Senator Bacon argued the issue from
a constitutional standpoint, showing
the precedents and demonstrating the
right of the senate in such matters.

CAUSED BY A FAKE INTERVIEW
Meeting Results In an
Endorsement of Ship Subsidy
BilI..OfficerS Are Elected.

The National Maritime convention
assembled in Brunswick Thursday
morning for the second day OF its de-
liberations. Permanent organization
of the convention was effected by the
election of the following officers:
President-A. K. Miller, New Or
leans.
Vice President-C. D. OggS Bruns-
wick, Ga.
Treasurer-E. P. Wilson, cincin-
natl.
secretary-F. B. Thurber, New

A vice president was named from
each state represented.

Pennsylvania-Theo G. Search.
Virginia-W. R. Trigg.
South Carolina-C..C. Townsend.
Georgia-D. G.. Purse.
Florida-Sewell G. Cobb.
Colorado-W. w. Bates.
After the election of officers the
congress adjourned.
The congress unanimously passed
Edmund Dyobston.s resolution favor
ing ship subsidy.
Just before adjournment sensa-
tional speech was made by Harold S.
Sewall, son of Arthur Sewall, of Bath,
Me-, in which he denounced the al
legged utterances of Governor Gambler
to the effect that the convention was
being held in the interest of the ship
subsidy bill.
he said they (the visitors) came to
the state of Georgia on the invitation
of Governor Gambler. who was not on
hand to give them hand of welcome,
but instead had denounced the action
of a member of the congress because
of his support of resolution which
was passed unanimously by that body
aud had characterized his guests as
puppets of Mark Hanna.
His utterances in regard to the gov
ernor were very severe.
He questioned his sincerity in e1'
tending the invitation to them.
he also paid tribute to the south
for it's loyalty to the union. He said
the old sectional feeling had dlsap'
peared when young Bagley, OF North
Carolina, was the first to lose his lite
in defense of the flag, and when Hob
son sunk the Merrimac. He said the
first measure looking to the protection
of American shipping was advocated
by that illustrious southern statesman
and the father of Democracy. Thomas
Jefferson, and the subsidy bill in the
United States was by Polk, of Tennes:
see, and that southerners instead Of
departing from the teaching OF their
fathers by advocating protection fol
ships and ship building interests were
but returning to traditions that had
their origin with southern statesmen
and southern patriots.

INCIDENTS OF TIE DAY.

An incident that caused much ex-
citement and regret occurred during
the progress of the funeral procession
at Windsor. The horses attached to
the gun carriage became restive kicked
over the traces and nearly overturned
the gun caraige with the coffin. The
animals were quickly removed and 100
sailors, drawing the carriage by a long
rope, completed the journey. The
incident delayed the procession about
one-half hour.
Another incident was the sudden
death of an on-looker who proved to
be retired army officer.
The directors of the Northeastern
Railway System of England ordered
that at 2:3O p. m, the hour appointed
for the funeral at Windsor, all trains
be brought to standstill and every
servant of the company remain mo-
tionless for ten minutes.
The London hospitals cared for
], 300 persons who were injured in the
crowd. OF this number, however,
only sixty were seriously hurt, in
cluding several policemen and soldiers
and number of women suffering
from broken limbs.
One we'll dressed woman fell down
in the street and was picked up dead,
the excitement having killed her be-
fore she had the opportunity to see the
pageant.
Already the political phases Of the
occasion are being discussed. The re-
markable prominence of Germans and
German influence is noteworthy. En-
peror Williams officers, soldiers aud
sailors were more conspicuous in all
the ceremonies than were those of all
other nations together. This has had
the effect of popularizing Germany
with the people, who recently regarded
her as their most menacing enemy.

The action of the Mississippi state

alleged bribery case is being made the
subject of some very severe criticisms
by the state press.
With but few exceptions every news
paper in the commonwealth voices the
opinion that Governor Longino and
the officials who were associated with
him in the prosecution of the prisoner
made a very grave mistake and that
the result reached by no means re-
dound to their credit.

A "FAKE," SAYS aovERNoR GAMBLER.

A CAKE" SAYS aovERNoR GAMBLER.
The interview referred to in Mr.. Se-
wallis speech was one which appeared
in an Atlanta afternoon paper of We'd
nesday, and which Governor Gambler
chanced to see for the first time Thurs
day morning when he walked into At
torney General Terrell's Office on some
official business. He was shown the
article and read it very carefully. He
expressed surprise at the interview,
and what he said with reference to the
alleged interview and the interviewer
was not spoken for publication. The
substance of mis- remarks, however,
was that the interview was fake pure
aud simple, that he had positively re-
fused to talk on the subject 10 any
newspaper man, etc. His Indignation
was freely punctuated with expressive
adjectiyes.
When the governor was told by q
reporter that Mr.. Sewall had de-
nounced him for the sentiments e1-
pressed in the alleged interview, the
governors first reply was:
cit makes but id little difference
to me what Mr.. Sewall thinks about
me or about what 7 said.",
'sBut did you say it?'' was asked.
"No, didn'taud you know I didn't.
knew nothing about the interview.
You yourself heard all that I had to
saw about that convention. That in
terview was fake, pure aid simple.
"But understand me, I don't care q
a d. what they think about it."
"Why didn't you attend the conven-
tion?"
"Because I had official business to
attend to in Atlanta, and 80 wired
them"
The governor would have nothing
more to say about the matter, adher-
ing strictly to his resolution not to
discuss the object of the convention
in any way.
