MAJORITY AGAINST TILLMAy.
His oHense, the Report Declares,
Was GraVer Than McI.aurin's.

His Offense, the Report Declares
Was Graver Than McI4aurin's.
WASHINGTON, D. c., Feb. 2S-The re-
port of the majority of the committee
which considered the Tillman- McLaurin
night in the United States senate sub
mitted today, was as follows:
That the conduct of the two senators
was an infringement of the privileges
OF the senate, violation of it's rules and
qerogatory to it's character tending to
orlng the body itself into public con-
tempt, cannot be questioned Indeed, the
SENATE py unanimous vote has already
paced on record its condemnation of the
tempt.
The majority of the committee is of
opinion that the legal effect of adjudging
these senators in contempt of the senate
was 10 suspend their function as sem
atOrs, and that such a punishment for
aIsorderiy behavior was clearly within
tne power of the senate, but the conclu-
sion it has reached makes it unnec-
essary to discuss this question.
ofenses Not of Equal Gravity.
The offenses committed by the two SEN
atorS were not, in the opinion of a ma ior-
lty Of the committee OF equal gravity.
The charge made by Mr. Tillman had
been once before the senate specifically
9gnleo IN parliamentary language by Mr..
McLaurln. The Offense charged against
Mr.. McLaur1n was among the most rep
rehensible a senator could commit. He
could not ignore or fail to refute it and
nope TO ee longer respected as either a
man or senator
Mr.. McLaurin did not begin the en-
counter but only stood in his place at
his desk, where he was speaking, and re-
sisted the attack that was made upon
nm: In other words, his offense was
ccnlneu to the use Of unparliamentary
language, Tor which he had unusual
proyocati0n Nevertheless, his offense

OF SO serious character that in the
opinion Of the committee it should be
cAndemned.
" the case of Mr.. Tillman, the record
SHOWS that the alteration was COM
menced by the charge he made against
Mr.. McLaurin. Such a charge is mex
crsable except in connection with a reso-
luton TO investigate. Mr.. Tillman not
oilly MADE the charge without any aVow-
al OF purpose to investigate. but also
dlscialming knowledge of evidence to
establish the offense. and this he said
after the charge had been specifically
and unqualifedly denied by Mr.. Nc
Laurin.
TiIIman Started the Fight.
Such charge, under any circum-
stances, would be resented by any man
worthy to be a senator but made as it
vas in this instance. it's offensiveness
was greatly intensified, and the result
must nave been foreSeen by Mr. Tillman,

the tact that he also commenced the en-

The CONSERVATION, therefore, was gen.
eral, when President 30 read Colombia S
telegram, and a heated discussion broke
out. The majority of the speakers con-
cluded that the telegram meant the ut.
ter Collapse of the negotiations with the
United States, and resentment against
the United States was expressed.
One shareholder attacked the United
States for beating the price down to
A0,O0OO00. Another speaker characterized
the Americans conduct as ''hideous
Matchmaking" saying that if the Ameri-
cans bought the canal property they
would make a fine bargain, and why
should not French capital be found to
reap the profits.
Other speakers expressed the conviction
that If proper appeal was made the
money to complete the canal could be
obtained in France. One of the share,
holders informed the meeting that he
knew on undeniable authority that
Prince Loubet had taken steps to en-
deavor to have the canal built with
French money

Objection Comes as 81 Surprise, When
Shareholders Were Preparing TO
Ratify Offer of Property to

PARIS, Feb. 2S.-At an extraordinary
meeting Of the shareholders of the new
Panama Canal company today President
30 read message from the consul gen
eraI of Colombia at Paris, setting forth
that the company could not transfer it's
concession to another nation without first
with the assent of Colombia modifying
the stipulauons of articles q and 22 of
the agreement
After a discussion, during which it
was argued that efforts should be made
to keep the concession for France the
meeting adopted a resolution directing
in view of the message of the Colon
bian consul general to postpone entering
upon any engagement.
The dispatch of the Colombian govern
ment was a complete surprise to the
shareholders of the Panama Canal com
pany, who met this afternoon in expec,
tation Of merely ratifying the action of
the board of directors in Offering the
Panama Canal company property to the
United States for $40,000000, which offer
was to remain open till March 4, 1903.
and authorizing the board to carry out
all the measures for the transfer of the
property and fix and accept all modes
and terms Of payment, if the United
States accepted the offer.

SONG CYCLE A SUCCESS.
Much Credit Due Fir. Corwin for the
Splendid Entertainment.

Those who did not attend the delight
full concert last Friday evening at Ly-
ceum Hall missed one of the pleasantest
and most artistic musical events of the
season, but there were few vacant seats.
The audience was in cordial mood and
appreciated the efforts of the manage
ment to please, consequently there was
satisfied and friendly feeling toward
all the soloists, who were Mrs. Beatrice
Fine, soprano; Miss Bessie Bonsal, con-
tralto; Miss E. Loretta Flock, piano;
John Young, tenor; Obey Speaks, basso,
and Miss Henrietta Weber, accompanist.
Mrs. Fine has one of the most beauti-
full voices heard ON the concert stage and
sang Sc Saren Rose, ".by Audit, which
brought the most cordial applause of the
evening. She has a charming stage pres
ence and personality.
Miss Bonsall, the contralto, was not
up to her usual form, owing, possibly
to a slight cold taken at concert the
night previous; however, she sang well,
and in the Persian Garden rose to her
work with the same enthusiasm which
always makes her success assured.
Miss Flock made the most distinct
success of the evening and was doubly
enchored; her touch is beautiful and
showed we'll in all her selections, which
were most appropriate. She will be
heard here again in the near future in a
piano recital.
John Young, the tenor, has fine
voice and uses it we'll. He has sung in
concert and oratorio nearly every night
this season and just returned on Friday
from long concert tour. He also will
be heard here again with the New York
University Glee Club, with whom he is
singing the solos in their concerts.
Obey Speaks sang for the third time
this season in Morristown and again
made a splendid impression. He has a
magnificent voice and shows the results
of fine training and association with DIR.
Carl Duff, the we'll known basso in New
York. Three of his songs were used on
Friday evening and each one received
an enchore. Mr.. Speaks will certainly
be one of the most popular singers before
the public in few years as he is very
young and ambitious.
The stage of the Lyceum never pre-
sented such fine showing, the decora-
tions being by Elliott.
Steinway and Sons sent fine concert
grand piano for this entertainment
which added much to the success.

New Rule for Admission to Bar.

The effort made by the New Jersey
State Bar Association to elevate the
standard for admission to the bar
made necessary by the too numerous
instances in which candidates un-
worthy to become lawyers have
passed examinations and have been
licensed to practice has been success
full.
The new rule adopted by the Su-
preme Court, at the instance of bar
association, requires that the candi-
date for admission to the bar must be
a graduate of high school. or an in
stitution of equal standing, or he
must pass a satisfactory regents
examination in the studies usually
pursued in high school. The term
of actual study in a lawyers office
has been reduced from four years to
three, but this will not tighten the
amount of study required of law
student. 1t will be of great advant.
age to the bar of New Jersey if the
standard thus raised will keep out a
great many who think they ought to
practise law.

The New Gibson Shirt Waist.

The newest shirt-waists known as
the "Gibson, are characterized by
broad plaits at the shoulders, gener-
ally extending over the sleeves, there
by accentuating the broad shouldered
effectiwhich is so fashionable in other
garments. The May Delineator fully
describes the making of these waists,
and the accompanying illustrations,
the various steps in their
construction, will be invaluable to
the amateur dressmaker. Embroidery
of various kinds has been much in
vogue recently for embellishing silk
and wool gowns and has greatly
enhanced their beauty and their.value
as we'll. The new decoration, called
faggoting, is treated in a special ar
ticle in this number and the illustra-
tions show many variations of this
stitch and their application.

Cattle Owners Beware.

The Agricultural Experiment Sta
tion at New Brunswick has sent out a
circular to cattle owners warning
them against substitutes for ordinary
feed
The corn crop is short and the cir
cular says that with the consequent
rise in the price of all feeding stuffs,
many materials which ordinarily are
considered as worthless offal of mil
ling, or of ouher manufacturing pro-
cesses, have been attracted to market
in order to participate in the high
prices now ruling.
There are, it appears, lot of these
substitutes, and most of them seem
to be almost useless for feed.
