Sugar States.
Washington, July 1.-The Republi.
can congressional campaign commit
tee is arranging to make great demon
strations in the states of California
and Michigan during the coming cam
paign. The president himself, who is
to take an active part In the fight this
fall, does not believe that the party
fight over Cuban reciprocity in con-
gress has or will have the least effect
upon the votes to be cast in those two
states-the two leading beet-sugar
states of the country. Nevertheless.
the Republican managers will see to 1t
that every effort is made to keep the
full Republican vote In line. Three
speeches by the president himself In
Michigan will do much good in that
state. There is no doubt about Michi-
gan going completely Republican In
the congressional fight, but the man
ayers do not want it to go Republican
on a reduced scale.
In California there is great fear that
the Republicans may lose representa-
tive or two, and great efforts will be
made to keep the voters there in line.
1t has already been arranged that one
of the cabinet officers, probably Secre'
tary Shaw, will make speeches in the
state. Representative Littlefeld OF
Maine, the hottest spellbinder that the
Republicans can possibly put on the
stump, will go all over the state. and
other big speakers will be sent out as
the fght warns up.

Bailey Of Texas Makes an Assault on
Beveridge Of Indiana.
Washington, July 1.-Senator Bailey
Of Texas assaulted Senator Beveridge
Of Indiana last night just after the
sion. The Texas senator was drag
ged away and separated from his op-
ponent by some of those about the SEN
ate. He was very angry and threat
ened severe harm to the Indiana SEN
ator
The episode was the result Of heat.
ed controversy which the two senators
had during the afternoon when Sena-
tor Beveridge had said that Senator
Bailey had made "an unwayranted at.
tack on Solicitor Penfeld Of the state
department" In executive session Sen
ator Beveridge, like other senators
who smoke, lighted a cigar and took q
seat on the Republican side. He was
still sitting there when the senate ad-
journed. Senator Bailey crossed the
aisle and walked through the seats un.
til he was facing Beveridge.
'Bsveridse." he said. Il don't want
to have any trouble with you, but l
want you to withdraw those words
which charge me with making an un-
warranted attack upon Penfield."
Il did not intend to insult you," re-
piled Senator Beveridge. "and there is
nothing In my language that you could
consider offensive"
II don't allow any one to say that
libel a man. and that Is what you do in
making the charge. Now, II you won't
withdraw the words when l ask you,
I'm going to make you withdraw
laem."
Seized by the Throat.
Senator Bailey had been getting
more and more angry and excited as
he talked. He mad been sitting down
part of the time. leaning against the
desk Immediately in front OF Senator
Beveridge. The latter, In reply to
Senator Bailey's last remark. still re-
naming In his chair. said: 81 repeat
that did not intend to insult you and
that have nothing to retract."
AS the words were uttered Senator
Bailey threw himself upon Senator
Beveridge. who is a man hardly up to
the average in physique, and seized
him by the throat with both hands.
The rush was SO sudden and fierce
that the chair in which Beveridge was
sitting was pushed back against a desk
and the desk toppled over.
Before the assault could go any
further senators who had been sitting
near had moved up between the desks.
Senator Hansbrough of North Dakota
seized Senator Bailey by one arm and
Senator Spooner seized the other. The
Texas senator is powerful man. and
1t was with great difficulty that the
two senator were able to drag him
away from Senator Beveridge.
Senator Beveridge remained in the
chamber for some time and continued
TO smoke his cigar. He remarked that
II did not amount to anything. and
that he die not intend to resent the at
tack made upon HIM.

Speculation Broke Otto Bank.

The web of evidence is closing about
those connected with the Otto bank,
which failed month ago, and Grim
inal proceedings are expected. 1t is
now almost definitely known that the
bank failed because OF the reverses of
a syndicate of operators on the Board
of Trade. Three Of these men-C. F.
Perry and J. w. Redden of Otto and w.
L. Redden of Smithland-have disap.
peared and are not expected to return
voluntarily. Five banks have letters
written by the Otto bank about security
for notes desired to be discounted,
misrepresenting the facts. 1t is also
said that chattel mortgages held by
outside banks and held as security for
discounted paper, were released of
record when the paper had not been
paid. All the members of the syndi-
cate dealing on the Board of Trade
will be ruined by the reverses Of the
bank. The individual members have
paper outstanding to the amount in
one case of over $4,000, and others
not much less.
