vested, farmer residing near this
place, lies dead at his home as re-
suit Of drunken carousal on Sunday.

men imbibed freely of strong liquor
and were in warlike mood about noon.
One of the girls took Chervested's bot
tie and threw it out Of the window.

Breaking the window, he recovered the
hottie and a desperate encounter be-
tween him and Ole Thoen ensued.

Senator Morgan Discusses the Canal
Bill.
Washington, June 13.-After consid-
ering the London dock charges bill for
an hour and half yesterday without
completing it, the senate resumed con-
sideration of the isthmian canal bill.
Mr.. Morgan of Alabama occupied the
floor for three hours and half, dis
cussing particularly the diplomatic
phases Of the question. From this point
he was diverted by an amendment in
troduced by Mr.. Fairbanks Of Indiana
providing for the issue of bonds for the
construction Of the canal. Mr.. Morgan
vigorously attacked the amendment.
maintaining the expense Of the canals
taxation should be paid from the treas
ury's current receipts. Incidentally Mr..
Morgan again opposed the Panama
route and assailed the report of the
new Panama company to dispose OF
the concessions it held from the old
company.
In the House.
The house yesterday passed special
rule for the consideration of the irriga-
ton bill, which passed the senate some
time ago, and devoted the day to gen.
