ANTI.ANARCHY MEASURE
SUBSTITUTE FOR THE SENATE BILL
REPORTED To THE HOUSE.
Explanation by Mr.. Ray, Followed by
Speech Against the Bill by
Mr.. Lanham, OF Texas.

WASHINGTON, June 3-The house to-
DAY began consideration of the anti-anar-
chy bill. The house committee reported
substitute for the Senate measure. Mr..
Ray New York. chairman of the judiciary
committee, who was In charge of the bill.
argued that the Senate bill was unconstitu-
tional The purpose of the House bill, he
said was TO protect the President. the
vice-president and those in the line of
the presidential succession and also to pre-
vent the entry into the United States or
the naturalization of persons who preach
anarchy or forcible destruction Of govern
ment. The imperative reason for the pas
sage OF this bill was the nonuniformity
of state laws for the punishment of hom-
icide. The Senate bill, Mr.. Ray contended
was unconstitutional because it provided
the death penalty for the killing of the
President, the vice-president and cabinet
officers in line of succession. without re-
gard to whether at any time they were en-
gagged in the performance of their official
duties. Every decision of the Supreme
Court he said, indicated that Congress
had jurisdiction TO enact laws Furnishing
offenses against officers only when they
were engaged in the performance of their
official duties. and for that reason the
House substitute used the language "any
person who unlawfully, purposely and
knowingly kills the President while en-
gagged in the performance of his official
duties, or because of his official character
or because of any of his official acts or
omissions, shall suffer death" 1t was the
opinion of the committee, said Mr.. Ray,
that the President was engaged in the
performance of his duties from the moment
his term begins until ii ends. But leading
lawyers thought otherwise.
Mr.. Lanham of Texas supported the
feature of the bill to exclude anarchists
offense 70 kill the President or any
one in the line of the presidential
succession. He argued that every
man was equal before the law, and
that existing laws were ample TO pun
ish the killing or attempted killing of the
President. MIR. Lanham wanted to know
why foreign ambassadors and ministers
had been singled out for such protection
and the speaker of the house omitted. He
regarded the speaker as more important
than the vice-president or a cabinet Off
Ger. "If 1 were President of the United
States" said Mr.. Lanham, 81 should rath-
er not have this bill on the statue books.
i would regard II as a special invitation
TO some crank 10 slay me wherever he
found me-.
Bills were passed for holding terms of
the circuit court of appeals of the Eighth
circuit annually at Denver, Cheyenne and
ST. Paul; to construct a lighthouse and fog
signal on the Patapsco river. Maryland; (;
TO authorize the light and fog signal at
Semiahmoo Harbor, Wash; a Senate bill
to grant $50 acres of land, embracing GER
tain hot springs, to the state of Idaho.
AT 5 o'clock the house adjourned.

SENSATION in MICHIGAN
MAN WHO WAS ACQUITTED OF
CRIME ALLEGED TO BE GUILTY.
Gen. w. l.. white Says Ell r.. sutton
Participated i'm the Military
Clothing Frauds.

LANSING, Mich June 3.-Testifying this
afternoon in the disbarment proceedings
against Attorney Z. S. Roos, of Kalama-
Zoo for alleged connection with the state
military clothing frauds Gen. w. L. White,
ex-quartermaster general OF the Michigan
National Guard who pleaded guilty to con-
nection with the frauds and was pardoned
by Governor Pingree. said that Eli r. SUIT
ton of Detroit, regent of the State Uni
versity. was also implicated. Sutton was in
dicted by the grand jury, but acquitted Of
connection with the frauds by a circuit
Jury in Ingham county. White testified to-
day that he paid to Sutton in Detroit his
share of the profits of the fraudulent deal.
This is the first time White has told his
story of the deal White testified that SUIT
ton was a member of the fictitious Illionis
supply company, through which the fraud
ulent deal was manipulated. Sutton's ac-
quittal in the Ingham court followed long
and bitterly fought trial. Whites story
created a great sensation:
White testified to-day that the fictitious
self Eli R. Sutton. of Detroit General
Arthur Marsh, of Allegan. inspector gen
eral of the Michigan National Guard ana
a member of the military board, and the
Henderson-Ames Company. of Kalamazoo.
The plan of organizing the fictitious COM
pany was suggested, White said, by an
agent or the HenderSon-Ames Company
After the sale of the clothing TO the III
linois Supply Company" its shipment to the
Henderson-Ames factory at Kalamazoo
where il was re-ticketed and re-furbished
and then its repurchase by the State from
that company as new clothing, White tes-
titled that the original investment in the
Illinois Supply Company and $31 200 In
profits was returned to him and he divided
ii among Sutton, Marsh and himself While
Attorney General Orren refuses to discuss
the matter. the impression prevailed that
General Whites testimoney will result in
the arrest of various persons for perjury.
Director Kauffer Of the Henderson-Ame
Company testified that after the grand jury
had been called, that Roos attended the
directors meeting when the story told
to the Ingham county grand jury was ar
ranged and a fund of $27,0 900 was raised by
contributions from each director, including
Roos This fund went TO the purchase OF
the certificate of deposit which was shown
the grand jury in substantiation of the
story that the profits of the deal had never
been divided. but were still intact for pay
ment to the State. The case will be re-
sumed tomorrow.

NEW YORK. June S.-The American

tuberculosis in its pathological and

family Of six, one after another. and said:
THE report of this case Is given out for the
purpose OF enlightening this congress. IL is
useless for boards of health or other State

CONFUSION AT CEMETERY
CAUSED BY OvERMANY SUNDAY FU-
NERALS WILL BE OBVIATED.
Board of Managers Discusses Plans
for Independent Water Works
and stone Tower

After the last Sunday in June there will
be no more Sunday funerals at Crown Hill
Cemetery. This was decided by the board
of managers at a meeting yesterday. The
action was taken because of the general de-
sire OF the friends and relatives of those
whose earthly remains are in the cemetery
for quiet Sundays. This day is becoming
everywhere the day of devotion and rever-
ence in cemeteries, and in most of the
larger cities the rule against Sunday fu-
nerals has been adopted The only ex-
ception to it is when the positive order of
the Board of Health is received. and these
orders are anticipated only in few emer-
gencies each year. The adoption of this
rule, which will be in force the first Sun,
day in July, will end a custom that was
increasing so greatly with the growth of
the city that il multiplied the work at the
cemetery and created a great amount of
unnecessary confusion.
The annual meeting of the corporators Of
the cemetery association was held vester-
day at the Crown Hill offices. Volnev 7.

corporators in place Of John Armstrong.

The board of managers heard the renort
OF a committee which was created az tbe
last meeting for the purpose of devising
means for establishing new water svstero
for the cemetery. The report advised the
installation of an independent water nlant
in the cemetery. The committee presented
several plans for partial and complete
water supply, the highest cost estimated

Water-SeveraI Lives Possibly Lost.
JOLIET, ILL.,. June 3.-Joliet is in the
grasp Of the worst flood in its history. All
of the lower portion of the city is under
water, and it is rumored that several lives
have been lost. The police have the names
of Eddie McGovern. Lizzie MCGEE and lit
tie girl named Kennedy drowned Several
families had narrow escapes and the po-
lice rescued many in boats. Several houses
and other buildings were swept away in
the floods. Jefferson and other principal
streets are under water and factories and
business places flooded, causing damage
estimated AT $4,000. Heavy rains, which
continued all night, caused Hickory and
Sprong creeks to burst their banks. Scores
of homes have from one 20 three feet of
water in the first stories.
The railroads are in a helpless condi-
ton. The Rock Island bridge over the
drainage canal has been moved eighteen
inches out of line by the flood and no
trains can pass. The tracks of the Chi
cago e. Alton and Santa Fe are under
water, and a Santa Fe bridge south of the
city was washed away. Ten miles of Mich
igan Central trackage is ruined and bridge
leading TO the Union elevator was carried
away.
