VOTING MACHINE FOR HOUSE.
Device by Which the Roll Call Can B.
Quickly Taken,

Washington, May 23.-It is proposed
to install an electrical voting machine
in the house of representatives by the
aid of which the roll could be called
or registered within five minutes, while
now 1t requires fort-fve minutes. The
adoption of the scheme would rob the
filibuster of all his terrors, and would
enable members engaged in committee
work to leave their rooms, register their
votes, and return in five minutes, in
stead of waiting for their names to be
reached in the regular order.
Speaker Henderson has received from
Architect Woods n report in which the
latter describes an electrical device
which, 1t Is believed will meet all the
requirements. 1t consists of a trans
mitter on the members desk, which is
connected electrically with single
printing receiver for printing in three
columns alphabetical lists of names of
members voting AYE" mo-" and pres
emit" and three .totalizers arranged so
as to be readily observed by the MEM
bers for giving the totals of the three
classes of votes. Each transmitter COM
prises a small ornamental casing about
four inches square with a Yale lock in
its front face; also two push buttons,
one marked present" and the other
mistake; and an opening above the

PARkHuRsT AGAIN HITS Low
Prefers Healthy Devil to Angel With
Nervous Prostitution.

New York, May 23.-The Rev. DR.
Parkhurst. who will go abroad tomor-
row, yesterday discussed Mayor Low:
administration and that of Colone
Partridge in the police department. He
said:
We have never had police ad-
ministration SO absolutely nerveless as
the one we have now. The cords OF
discipline are strung so loosely that
when struck they give out no tone
Even under Tammany the members OF
the force knew what to do and did it
But now they don't know what to do
and don't do it.
What is bad under reform ad
ministration is a good deal worse than
the same bad thing under an unre-
generate administration. The nayo'
and his commissioners should brace
up and rescue the department from it,
present lackadaiscal condition that VIC
may be able to have good, virile ma
teria] to go into the next municipal
campaign with.
Two weeks after the Low admins
tration began we criticised it for ly
ing down under it's load. Our cditi.
cism was impugned as being prema-
ture. Five months have passed and
1t is still fiat with the load on it's back
only that which means something
can create following, and healthy
devil is more impressive than an angel
that is down with nervous prostra.

COMMITTEE CHANGES.
Several New Members of the Ways
and Means Committee Probable.

| Washington, May 23.-There will be
a number of changes in the personnel
| of the ways and means committee of
| the next congress. Two of the oldest
members Of that body, Hopkins of IL
linois and Steele Of Indiana, will not
sit at the table on which the work Of
| framing the tariff and revenue laws
OF the country has been done. Repre-
sentative Hopkins is slated for pro-
motion, SIS he probably will be the next
United States senator from Illinois
and Representative Steele was yester-
day defeated for denomination.
Mr.. Hopkins is the third member of
the committee and Representative
Steele is, No. 6. AS a result of their
dropping; out Representatives Gros-
venor and Russell will move up ona
number each, and Representative,
Tawney, Mccall, Long, Babcock, and
Metcalf, who are below Mr.. Steele, will
each move up two numbers, and the
speaker will then appoint two new
members to fill the republican quota
Illinois will probably get one of the
vacancies. Several members of this
important committee were opposed to
Cuban reciprocity. One of these was
Representative Steele, who was oppos-
ed to it from the beginning, and only
voted to report the measure out of
the committee in Difference to the
wishes of the president. He is the
first member of the committee and of
those who were opposed to Cuban reci-
procty 10 fall by the wayside. and the
politicians here are watching with

| part is indicated by the following ques-
lions by Senator Patterson and Bishop
| Thoburn's responses:
| If a Philippine government should be
established, and you had been asked
whether you thought it was the act OF
God, how would you defend your posi-
tion?"
Could not say it was the act of
God.
You would not say it was the act
OF the devil?"
Il would not. l would say it was the
act of American politicians"
He added that he believed that with
an Independent Philippine government,
the Macabebes would be eXterminated
within twelve months.
Mr.. Patterson asked the witness Il he
believed the subjugation of barbarous
or semi civilized peoples by the great
powers to be the act of God.
II would not put 1t that way" he re-
piled. THE most enterprising govern
ments are pushing out as individuals
and governments generally find that
they have to follow their citizens. God
rules and overrules.'
IT." went on Senator Patterson, "a
nation has gone to the help of semi
civilized people and finds itself in con-
troll Of their country, has that nation
right to overrun it against the will of
it's people and to kill and burn in order
to accomplish its purpose?"
DO you mean that question serious
ly?"
Yes" responded the senator
Bishop Thcburn said 1t was very diff
ficult to answer it seriously, for the
reason that what is right in one case
may be wrong in another"
Does man determine what is right
and what Is wrong?" asked Senator
Patterson, and again this question was
met by another from the bishop.
rs this" he asked IAN examination
in metaphysics or in theology"
You volunteered to say that God had
put us in the Philippines" said Senator
Patterson, and he insisted on reply.
Bishop Thoburn: II can not very we'll
discuss theological questions here, but
If l can give you any information
shall be glad to do So"
In response to questions by Senator
Culberson, Bishop Thoburn said he be-
lieved the Philippines should have a
protectorate after the manner of the
British protectorate.

BISHOP THoRuRN QUESTIONED.
Views on American Occupancy Of the
Philippines.

Washington, May 23.-Bishop Tho
burn, of the M. E. church of India and
Malaysia, was before the senate com
mittee on Philippines. He said the
American occupation of the Philippinas
should be continued. In the course OF
his examination he said that the Amer
lean occupation was an act of God.
This led to quite a long line of uues-
tons by Senator Patterson, in which
the bishop was asked whether the oc-
cupation Of Cuba was an act of God.
and when he replied in the affirmative
Senator Patterson asked if the with
drawal also was the act of God
1T is too early to answer that" he
replied. "The United States may have
to go back there" Senator Patterson
pursued the questions to some length
and the bishop finally pronounced them
'metaphysical.'
Senator Beveridge objected, saying
the questions We're unnecessary and
Senator Patterson remarked that
whenever the questions We're such as
to bring out evidence which the ma
jority did not want an excuse was
made for objection. Chairman Lodge
sustained the objection. Bishop Tho
burn continued today.

USED CARDS TO DECIDE FATE.
ST. Louis Man Plays Solitaire and Then
Kills Himself.

ST. Louis, Mo-, May 23.--After indulg-
ing in game Of solitaire, Phillip John
Simeons, boss painter, GO years old,
put a bullet into his brain, in the kit
chen of his home, 112 Tower Grove ave-
nue., at o'clock yesterday morning.
Death was instant. Two letters which
he left indicate that he killed himself
on account of debts which he was I'M
able to pay. Simeons used the cards as
a lottery to decide his fate. He was
troubled with insomnia and he gener-
ally passed his sleepless hours away
playing solitaire. At 2 o'clock yester-
day morning, he arose, as was his Gus
tom, and went into the kitchen, telling
his wife he would be back in little
while. For While Mrs. Simeons heard
him shutting the cards and the sound
ceased.
1t is supposed that after putting the
cards aside he wrote the two letters
which were found in the kitchen.
