VOTES TO SPARE.
Philippine Tariff Bill Passed by
the Senate.
HAS A MAJORITY OF TWENTY VOTES
A Synopsis Of the Measure-senators
Tillman and McLaurin Denied
the Right to Vote While
in Contempt.

washington, FeD. N e1ght
hours of tumultuous debate Monday,
the senate shortly before seven o'clock
p. m. passed the Philippine tariff bill
by a vote Of 46 to 26, a strictly party
vote. Senators TiIlman and McLaurin,
the two senators from South Carolina,
who on Saturday last were declared
by the senate to be in contempt be-
cause of their fight in the chamber,
we're not permitted by voice or by
vote to participate in the proceedings.
causes sharp Debate.
The question as to their right to
vote precipitated a sharp debate last
ingsnearly two hours. Senator Turner
(dem., Wash.) contended vigorously
for the right of the two senators to
cast their votes, and he was sustained
by Senators Patterson (Col.), Bailey
(Tex.) and other democrats. They
held that eventthough,t the twosenators
actually were under arrest-and in the
custody, of the sergeant-at-arms, they
could demand that they be allowed to
vote, as the senate had not passed on
their case. Senator's Foraker, Aldrich
and other republicans held that the
senator's clearly could not participate
in any of the proceedings of the SEN
ate until they had purged themselves
Of contempt and the senate had re-
moved the ban placed on them. The
president pro tenn, Senator Frye, held
that the two senators could not vote,
and he was sustained by a majority of
the senate.
McLaurin Asks Interrogation.
Senator Pritchard (rep., N. CO., at
the request of Senator McLaurin, Of
fered a resolution directing the priv
leges and elections committee to in
vestigate Senator Tillman's charges
that Senator McLaurin was improp-
erly influenced to vote for the Span
ish peace treaty. The resolution was
referred to that committee.
Will Insist on Voting.
Senator Tillman will not accept the
decision that he is not to be allowed
to vote. When the roll is called he will
rise in his place and demand the right
to vote and present a formal protest
against the denial of a state the right
to vote in the senate.
Wellington Called to Order.
In the debate that followed on the
Philippine tariff bill Senator Me-
Comas (Md.) denied Senator Yelling
toms (Md.) charges that the former
was influenced to vote for the treaty
by promises Of President Mckinley.
Senator Wellington showed intense
feeling.
He declared that if Senator McComas
should make his statements outside
of the senate chamber he would brand
them as a malicious falsehood. He was
called to order promptly and resumed
his seat amid considerable excitement.

NORWAY.

The influence of Ibsen and Bjorn-
son upon the Paris stage seems to be
a little more than a fiction, after all.
The young authors of France have
taken steps to protect themselves
against this influence by establishing
a new free theatre, the significant
name of which shall be. Theatre des
Latins," the Theatre of the Latins.
The program of the new institution
is turned squarely against the lob
scure tiic-philosophica
lectures which Ibsen and Bjornson
deliver in dramas which are no dram
as, but only equipment" The great
watchwords of the new theatre shall
be: action, not words; beauty, not
philosophical analysis.
The Arctic expedition which Prof.
Birkeland has planned for the contin-
uation of his study of northern lights
will cost about $4,000. The commit
tee of ways and means has proposed
an appropriation of only $5,4oo, rely
ing upon private parties to raise the
balance by subscription. Prof. Birke-
land, who spent two winters in Fin
marker for the purpose of making
thorough inquiries into the nature of
northern lights, has already establish
ed the fact that northern lights are
due to magnetic forces, and that the
same forces have something to do
with the formation of clouds in the
upper regions of the air. It is feared
that if the $4,000 still lacking is not
raised the expedition will be crippled
to such an extent as to almost defeat
its object.
The lion, the national emblem OF
Norway, is rarely used in the decora-
tive arts in Norway. Whence comes
this negligence? It cannot be due to
a lack o~fvpatriotism. It must rather
be due to the evident fact that the
choice Of the emblem is far-fetched in
the strictest sense of the word.

DENMARK.

Some German hotel owners are said
to have offered a handsome price for
the great watering establishment and
summer resort Marienlst, at Hell
Singer.
About a year ago the Danish man
ufacturers of lucifer matches formed
q combine, and at that time they
thought they had disposed of all do
mestic competition. In this, however,
shey seem to have been mistaken. Ed
ward Jorgensen, former manager OF
a large match factory in Copenhagen,
has organized a stock company and
;,uilt a new factory at a cost of many
thousand dollars. The establishment
was to be ready for operation about
the first of February. If he tries to
undersell the combine the latter is
prepared to fight him to a finish. The
export is very light at present. The
sales for the home market are 100000
boxes a day, while the factories are
able to turn out e. 100000 a day.
Burglars took a safe out of a facto-
ry in Copenhagen, placed it O a sled
and hauled it into a backyard. In
order to give the public a chance to
busy themselves with something else,
the burglars sounded a false fire
alarm and began to operate on Che
safe. They spent several hours in
trying to open the safe, but it proved
to be more than a match for them
and their tools, and they left it in
dismay. The safe contained ove1
$4,000 in cash and checks.

KLUGGER A FUGITIVE
Rock islander Escapes From the
Joliet Peniten.
tiary.
Is SENT UP A YEAR AGO
For Theft of Copper Wire From
Tri-City Railway
Company.

Word was received by Sheriff
Cralle yesterday evening that b.
+. Klugger, who was sentenced to the
penitentiary at Joliet a year ago for
the theft of about $500 worth of cop
per wire from the Watch Tower line
of the Tri-City Railway company, had
made good his escape from prison.
No details of the manner in which
he got away were given, but it is pre-
sumed that he awaited himself of
privileges that had been extended
him as a reward for exemplary con-
duct The usual reward of $50 is of
fered for his capture.
Klugger has wife and family of
small children in this city, but it is
believed he will be too shPewd to put
in an appearance hereabout where he
is so well known.
VIII BE Hard to Catch.
1t is the opinion of the officer here
who had to do with his arrest at the
time he was first suspected of the
crime for which he was subsequently
sentenced that he will resort to al
most any lengths in resisting re-
capture.
y Joliet dispatch states Klugger,
who escaped, was employed in driving
Il prison team outside the walls, being
"A ''trusty.'
