HOT WORDSIN SENATE
Continued from First Page.)

Rawlins said that his only intention in
bringing the Gardener matter to the at
tention OF the senate had been to develop
the status of the case. He did not want
to besmirch the army, but he did want a
full inquiry to develop the guilty and have
them punished while the innocent may be
exonerated. He said the minority met
everywhere with objections and obstruc-
tions.''
81 call the senator from Utah to order"
said Mr.. Lodge. n senator has a right
to charge any other senator with obstruc-
ton"
Mr.. RawIins referred to the case Of Pri-
vate Riley and quoted the secretary OF
war as saying private soldiers are in
clined to draw the long bow in writing
home, which, he said. in itself was a re-
Election on the army. Contrary to the
secretary's statement, he said, the charges
Of the p~rivates had been sustained.
Mr.. Lodge-The Riley case is the only
one that has been sustained.
Mr.. Rawlins--The Riley case is the only
one that has been fully Investigated.
Lodge Serves Notice of speech.
Without replying Mr.. Lodge gave notice
of a speech next Monday.
Mr.. Culberson replied to Mr.. Foraker's
reference to Governor Taft, saying he had
intimated a lack of candor in connection
with the Withholding of the report OF
Major Gardener. He said the report had
been suppressed and added that the Sec
rotary of war was now attempting to take
the inquiry out of the hands OF the senate
committee.
At the conclusion of Mr.. Culberson's
comments, Mr.. Pettus said:
81 rise merely to ask the senator from
Utah Rawlins) to withdraw the resolu-
ton. We are in a situation where the
witness cannot be had. and why press this
discussion which can only lead to bitter
ness?'
Mr.. Foraker took sharp exception to the
criticism Of Governor Taft made by Mr..
Culberson. He paid a high tribute to Gov
ernor Taft and declared that 1t had re-
manned for the minority TO question his
honesty Of purpose and his veracity.
Patterson Gets Into IL.
Mr.. Patterson Of Colorado declared that
the record, in his opinion. fully justified
the criticism OF the lack OF frankness OF
Governor Taft made by Mr.. Culberson.
Without concluding his remarks Mr.. Pat
terson Yielded the floor, as he said he under
stood the report Of the death Of Repre-
sentative Aamos J. Cummings OF New York
was on the presidents desk.
TIL resolutions concerning the death OF
Mr., Cummings were laid before the senate.
Mr.. Depew of New York offered a resolu-
ton expressive Of the sorrow OF the sem
ate at the death of Mr.. Cummings and pro-
viding that the chairman appoint a COM
mittee Of five TO join a like committee Of
the house to make arrangements for the
funeral. The resolution was adopted and

Boer Delegates See Roosevelt and Tell

Washington, March 11.-C. H. Wes- sels and A, D. W. Wolmarans, the Boer delegates in this country, had a talk with President Roosevelt to-day at the conclusion of the cabinet meeting. They called to pay their respects and to say good bye, for they will leave for Europe about the 20th instant after having vis- ited Chicago and number of other places.
 In the course of their interview they said they desired to make known to the president that they neither asked for, desired nor expected intervention on the part of this country nor any oth- CT country "A number of mistakes have been printed about our mission to this country since we came to Wash ington" said Mr Vessels, "and the worst one is that we are trying to get intervention. We know that this is net rosslble and, as a matter of fact we don't want it. What we do want, how ever. and what we have laid before the American government, is a request that civilized warfare be insured in South Africa.

NEW FORK BRoKER SUICIDES.
Francis skinner Found Dead in His
 Private Office on New street.

| New York March 1.-Francs Skin her, banker and broker, committed sui- eide some time between Monday even- | ing and this noon in his private office
 on New street. He used a revolver and the act was probably due to business reverses and family trouble.
 The body of the suicide was found by the agent of the building. Skinner had occupied two dingy rooms there for sev- eral months. He was little known to
 the other tenants and it was supposed he conducted most of his business on the curb" Certain literature found In the office indicated that the suicide had tried to create a pool or "corner" in wheat He pretended to have direct wire connections with Chicago and oth- CT western centers.
 Skinner was about thirty-fve years old Among the effects found in his desk was a diary in which frequent ref erences of marital troubles were hinted at. There were also photographs of two children, a pawn ticket for a silver watch, a Seventh National bank pass book showing a balance of s725, lock of hair and eleven cents in each
 The suicide left a note addressed to R. D. Morse, a lawyer of this city MT. Morse said he had known Skinner for some years and that the envelope ad- dressed to him contained a legal docu- ment the character of which he decln- ed to reveal. An acquaintance of the suicide said that Skinner's two childrer were with relatives somewhere in Maine probably at East Vassalboro.

Last Day Spent Entirely on Board the spoken to Mayor Low-Htnts That He May Again Visit the United States Last Functions -T Thousands Watch tho Princes Deparfure.
tho Princes Departure.

New York, March 11.-Prince Henry of Prussia sailed for Germany on board
 the Hamburg American liner Deutsch- land at 3:45 D. m to-day and thus end- ed his first visit to the United States. The day was perfect. being warm, springlike and sunny. The princes last day in America WAS spent entirely on board the Deutschland, for he had de- cided not to make number of social calls which were arranged for the fore noon. He breakfasted at S:30 and i'm mediately retired to his cabin, where he spent several hours in writing let ters. About 10 o'clock he began to re- ceive farewell visits from members of the party which accompanied him and various officials of Germany in this country and the United States govern ment.
 Mayor Low, of New York, was one of his latest callers. In bidding him fare well the prince hinted that he had some intention of returning to America for second visit. Tn reply to the mayor the prince said 'T thank the citizens of New York for all their kindnesses to me. which I appreciate deeply. If [ should return to America I should feel when l reached New York that I was once more at home"
 This statement was the only formal farewell that the prince authorized up- on leaving the country but in the course of many informal conversations during the day he demonstrated that the whole trip to the United States had been one of the greatest interest and pleasure.
 The first function of the day was the luncheon which Prince Henry gave to members of the party which accompa- nied him on his tour. At the close of the luncheon, when it came time to say goodbye, the prince, taking rose from the table, said: This is the badge which I have been admiring during my entire trip to the United States-Amer- ican Beauty" Then he placed the flow CT in his buttonhole, and each guest. taking a rose from the table, did like wise.

 Sharply Answered by MT. Hftt

Sharply Answered by MT. Hit.
 Washington, March 1.-The feature of
 to-day's session of the house was a,
 speech by MT. Burleson of Texas, at
 tacking Secretary Hay for declining to
 request the British authorities to furn-
 ish passports to Rev. Hiram w. Thonl- I as and his wife to pass through the
 British lines. MT Thomas and his wife
 desire to go to South Africa to distrib- ute Boer relief funds collected in IlH- nols. MT. Burleson admitted that he did not know personally whether the 1 report on which his resolution--i1tro- duced the other day and calling for in- formation from the secretary of state was true.
 | His purpose was solely to ascertain the facts. He sent to the clerks desk and had a letter from John o. Knight read MT. Knight came to Washington to secure the passport for Dr. Thomas and wife. He said in the letter that he went to Secretary Hay with a letter from Senator Cullom and the secretary of state declined to make the request of Lord Pauncefote on the ground that such a request would be considered ''meddlesome" and 'remissness of neutrality" and against the views of President Roosevelt.
 If the facts stated in this letter were true MT. Burleson said then the state department was so saturated with pro- British spirit that it could no longer respond to the common dictates of hu- manity when made in behalf of Boer Arr p11plo said that under date of March another appeal went to Secretary Hay from MT. Knight, but it eicited no response.
 Mr. Hill of Illinois, chairman of the foreign affairs committee. answered MT. Burleson with some display of heat He said it was with surprise that he heard the gentleman from Texas bring forward resolution which had already been referred to committee of which he (Burleson) was a member, which committee was to meet on a day fixed by motion of MT. Burleson him. self It was strange, he said, that MT. Burleson should rush in before action was taken or the reply of the secretary of state was received. He declared that it was an effort to prejudge the case before the evidence was in.
 According to MT. Knights letter, MT. Hit said. the secretary had offered to help the Rev. Dr. Thomas in every way in his power, but he manifestly could not do a ridiculous thing. The rules of international law upon the question were well established. The secretary of state could not make a demand which on its face was contrary to all precedents. Our government he said, in conclusion. should not put itself in conflict with another for the sake of making political capital.

PRESIDENTS FIRST VETO.
REFUSES REMOVE 4 CHARGE OF
 DESERTION.
Case of John Glass Who Disappeared After a Months Service in the Navy During the Civil War His Explana- tion Satisffed the Senate but Not the President.
President.

Washington, March 11.-President Roosevelt sent his first veto message to congress to-day. II was directed to the senate and the bill vetoed was one re-
 moving the charge of desertion from
 the naval record of John Glass. The 1 message was as follows:
 There can be no graver crime than the crime of desertion from the army
 or navy, especially during war; it is
 then high treason to the nation and is justly punishable by death No man
 should be relieved from such crime,
 especially when nearly forty years have
 passed since it occurred, save on the
 clearest possible proof Of his real inno-
 cence. In this case the statement made
 by the affiant before the committee does
 not in all points agree with his state- ment made to the secretary of the navy
 In any event it is incomprehensible to me that he should not have made eff fective effort to get back into the navy.
 He had served but little more than a month when he deserted, and the war lasted for over a year afterwards, yet he made no effort whatever to get back into the war. Under such circumstances it seems to me that to remove the charge of desertion from the navy and give him an honorable discharge would be to falsify the records and do all in justice to his gallant and worthy com rades who fought the war to finish. The names of the veterans who fought ir the civil war make the honor list of the republic; and I am not willing to put upon it the name of man unwor thy of the high position.
 Signed; Theodore Roosevelt
 After the message had been delivered Senator Gallinger of the committee on naval affairs read the report of the committee upon which the senate acted. From that statement it appeared that Glass enlisted in January, 1864, when only sixteen years of age, and that, having witnessed an act which colnpro- missed the second officer of the ship, he was taken ashore In March of that year by that officer and told not to report again for duty. The committee say that this order, together with Glass youth, was responsible for his deser' ton.
