WILL CAUSE A CONTROVERSY.
Objection to Origin of Philippine Reve-
nue. Bill in Senate.

(By Associated FreSS.)
Washington, Dec. 5.-Members of the
house are showing some opposition tc
the originating of Philippine revenue
legislation in the senate and in particu-
lar to Senator Lodges bill which deals
with this subject.
Mr.. Tawney of Minnesota holds that
the constitutional provision that "all
bills for raising revenue shall originate
in the house of representatives" ap-
plies to Philippine measures and the
Minnesota member will oppose any
senate bill as an invasion of the prerog-
atives Of the house.
Mr. Overstreet of Indiana and a
number of other influential members
maintain that the senate Philippine bill
involves no invasion of the house righ is
as it extends an existing law t. the
Philippines, and is not revenu meas
ure within the meaning of the constitu-
ton.
In any event the question of the righ:
of the house over the subject is likely
to be discussed on the floor Of the house.

SOUTH MAIN STREET BLAZE IN
HAY BALES.
PYTHIAN HALL is SMOKED UP
Flames Sweep Through a Restaurant
and Drive Out Diners-Elvers
& Co. Are the Principal
Losers.

Within a few minutes early this after
noon a fire swept through Elvers &
Cos. hay and grain establishment in
South Main street, famed it's way into
an adjoining restaurant and smoked up
the north side of the new Pythian hall.
But for the prompt response of the
department to the alarm much greater
damage would probably have resulted.
AS it is the property loss is nearly $4,000.
The Elvers building is just north of
and Immediately adjoining the new
Pythian hall.
The main building which laces on Main
street and small buildings in the rear,
which front on the alley were we'll
filled with bales of hay and straw.
Fire in che Hay.
It was in these bales in one of the
rear sheds, in the opinion of a fireman
who was early at the scene of the blaze,
that the fire first started.
Though the department was at work
promptly, the flames could not be inn
medately checked. They swept into the
front building and ate their way into
an adjoining Chinese restaurant, where
there were a number of people at lunch.
The diners dashed for the street and
the heat quickly broke out all the glass
in the front Of the restaurant.
Water quickly applied prevented the
building from being burned to the
ground and when the fire was out in
the restaurant the scorched meals that
had been set before the lunchers could
still be seen on the tables.
Another Restaurant Flooded.
NNn@o
which stands just north of the one that
did not eat it's way into the second
dining room to any extent.
1t was among the bales of hay and
straw that the blaze kept alive with
persistency. After the fire had been ex-
tinguished in the front part of the build
ing it continued to shoulder in the rear
sheds and the men with helmets on
their heads We're kept busy to prevent
new outbreak of the blaze.
With long hooks they hauled out into
| the alley the blazing bales and threw
| water on those that remained. Even
| at o'clock the flremen were still at
work fighting the flames.
Large Crowd Gathers.
The fact that the fire occurred just
at time when people were going to
and from their lunches caused a large
crowd to gather about the burning build
ings.
The fact, too, that the Pythian hall
seemed to be in danger added to the
interest which the spectators took in
the work Of the firemen.
A large black streak up the side of
the new brick wall told of the prox-
unity of the blaze to the structure.
While it was true that the fire did
come very near to the hall, however it
was claimed by the firemen that the
brick structure was at no time in any
great danger of being burned
At 230 the fire was practically under
control.

RESTRAINING ORDER DISSOLVED
IN ROSE MINE MATTER.
JUDGE HARVEY DECIDES SUIT
Hearing in Suit Of A. Stark Against
]. n. Graham Finished at Noon
Defendant May Resume
Work.

In the interesting mining suit in which
Albert Stark Of New York sued j. H
Graham and ]. w. Fairfield to recover
the possession and ownership of the Rose
mine, which is on the hillside under the
Anaconda mine, Judge Harney al noon
today refused to grant Stark a temporary
injunction against Graham and Fairfield
pending the trial of the suit, and dis
solved the temporary restraining order
issued to Stark, which closed down the
mine, when the suit was brought sew
eral days ago.
The hearing on the order to show cause
why tbe injunction should not be granted
began before Judge Harvey yesterday
afternoon and was completed at noon
today.
Attorneys Who Appeared.
Con F. Kelley and Captain D'Gay
Stivers represented Stark and Attorneys
Mediation and Mcbride had the interests
OF the defendants in their hands.
Graham is in possession of the Rose
mine and he claims to have owned it for
years. A week or so ago Stark brought
the suit, claiming to own the Rose under
another claim title. A temporary re-
straining order was given to Stark by
Judge Harvey when the suit was filed.
Graham's lawyer came into court and
tried to get this vacated on the ground
that the complaint in the case was sworn
to on information and belief by Stark's
lawyers, but Judge Harney refused the
order asked for.
Yesterday there was contempt pro-
ceeding before Judge Harvey in which
Graham was required to show that he
was not in contempt in having violated
the restraining order.
Charge Is Dismissed.
After the contempt hearing Judge Har-
ney discharged Graham and dismissed
the charge against him, the plaintiff fail
ed the substantiate the charge that
Graham was engaged in working the
nine in disregard of the order.
The hearing on the application for an
injunction to prevent Graham from
working the mine pendente lite was then
heard, with the results stated, today.
Judge IIarney ruled out Of the evil
dHice the county records upon which
Stark endeavored to prove his title. and
HIS order was made for the reason that
the tlaint!ff did not convince him that his
claim of ownership was sufficiently
strong to warrant the issuing of the in
Junction and the continuance of the re-
straining order.
The attorneys for the plaintiff took
exceptions to the rulings of the court.
and Judge Harney gave him 80 days in
which to file a bill Of exceptions and to
perfect a statement on motion for n
new hearing and appeal.
