In the senate.

Washington, Feb. rs. Senator Bcnja-
min r. Tillman, the South Carolina
fre-eater. justified his reputation Sat
urday afternoon by an assault with MS
fists on his colleague. Senator John L.
McLaurin, on the floor of the senate
The two senator's thereupon engaged
In a list fight until separated by the OF
ficers and members of the senate. I'M
mediately thereafter they were ad-
Judged in contempt Of the senate, were
formally suspended. and are now mem
bers Of the upper house of congress IN
name only. being admitted to the floor
but without the privilege of speaking
or voting. Whether either senator Is
TO be permitted to resume his legislative
functions is a question of doubt. as the
senate has the right 60 expel both OF
tenders.
TilIman Is Told He Lied.
Mr.. Tillman's provocation was the
public denunciation of one OF his state
ments as "a willful malicious, and de-
hberate lie' by the junior senator from
South Carolina. Mr.. McLaurin, during
his absence from the chamber, had been
accused by his colleague of securing
the patronage of his state In payment
for his vote in favor of the Spanish
treaty. Immediately ne was notified of
the charge Mr.. McLaurin went TO his
seat and requested a hearing. and the
denunciation, the personal clash, and
the other incidents of the remarkable
affair followed.
First Blow Reaches McLaurin.
Mr.. Tillman struck the first blow,
brushing aside Mr.. Teller and upsetting
a chair in his rush to confront his col
league. Mr. McLaurin, who had stepped
forward to meet his opponent, was hit
on the forehead and struck back land
ing on Mr.. Tillman's nose, drawing
blood. A general mix-up followed and
the blows were falling thick and fast
when the combatants were dragged
apart and pinioned by those first TO
reach them. One OF the peacemakers,
Assistant Sergesnt-at-Arms Layton,
was struck in separating the men.
Senate Hears Explanations.
After the action by the senate sus-
pending both men and they had been
given the privilege OF the floor to apol-
ogize, Mr.. Tillman asked the pardon OF
the senate, but made no apology to his
colleague.
Mr. McLaurin's statement was more
OF an explanation than an apology, and
when he began a threat--"If there is
any more of that talk"-friends per-
suaded him 10 desist, and II is believed
another violent scene was averted.
The status of Senators Tillman ana
McI.aurin is that they are In contempt
of the senate and only by vote Of the
senate can either be recognized to speaB
or to vote on any question.

Iowa Legislators Recon- mend q
Much-Amended Taxation Measure.
Des Moines. Iowa, March 1.-The sem
ate committee on ways and means yes
terday reported for passage the rail-
road assessment bill, which has been
the subject OF so much discussion be-
fore the committee and throughout the
legislature for the past few weeks. 1t
was originally a stock and bond meas
ure, but was so amended as to make 1t
as nearly like the present law as IL is
possible to be. The section regarding
what shall be taken into consideration
I'm making the assessment originally
designated stocks end bonds and such
other matters as may be necessary.
The BILL as amended, how ever, pro-
vides that the gross earnings, the net
earnings, the physical conditions etc,
shall be taken into consideration. This
practically destroys the force of the
bill. The senate committee on railroads
reported for passage the bill introduced
by Hubbard, giving railroads in Iowa
the power 20 acquire railroad property
I'm other states. This is the famous
merger bill' which was believed TO
have been introduced with a view OF
making Iowa the home of the Northern
Securities company.

In the senate.

Washington. Feb. %. - After eight
hours of tumultuous debate yesterday
the serate passed the Philippine tariff
bill by a vote of 46 to 20 a strictly
party vote. Mr. TillnIan and Mr.. Nc
I.aurin, the two senators from South
Carolina, who on Saturday last were
declared by the senate to be in con-
tempt because of their fight in the
chamber, were not permitted by voice
or vote to participate in the proceed
ings. The gu estion as to their right
to vote precipitated a sharp debate
lasting nearly two hours. Mr.. Turner
Dem. Wash.) contended vigorously
for the right of the two senator's TO
cast their votes, and he was sustained
by Mr.. Patterson of Colorado, Mr..
Bailey of Texas and other Democrats.
They held that even though the two
senator's were actually 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.
Mr.. Foraker, Mr. Aldrich and other
Republicans held that the senators
clearly could not participate In any of
the proceedings of the senate until they
had purged themselves of contempt
and the senate had removed the ban
placed on them.
The president pro tenn, Mr.. Frye.
held that the two senators could not
vote and he was sustained by ma
jority of the senate.
During the debate on the Philippine
bill Mr.. McComas and Mr.. Wellington
OF Maryland became involved in a con-
troversy during the course OF which
the latter declared that IL Mr.. Me-
Comas should make his statements
outside the senate chamber he would
brand them as a malicious falsehood.
He was called to order promptly and
resumed his seat amid considerable ex-
element.
Many amendments were offered to
the Philippine bill, but except those Of
fered by the committee only one, an
amendment restricting the operation OF
the sedition laws enacted by the Taft
commission, was passed.
In the House.
The house yesterday passed a bin to

trusts, coinage and other irrelevant
matters. The galleries were packed all
day in anticipation of Prince Henry's
visit
when Prince Henry entered the gall
lery of the house he was loudly APP
plauded some venturing TO give vent
to cheers. Prince Henry gracefully
bowed and was then showed TO his seat
by Mr.. Hit OF Illinois. He remained
for fifteen minutes, during which tin~
he evinced the greatest interest in The
proceedings. He was loudly applauded
as he left the chamber.
Without disposing OF the pending bill,
the house at AGO adjourned.

Northern Minnesota Lumber Camps
the scene of Hundreds of Serious
Accidents.
Duluth, Mimi, March 2.-The logging
industry of Northern Minnesota has
claimed more victims this winter. ii is
claimed by men who are in touch with
IL, thar in any previous winter. and
the number OF serious but not fatal ac-
cidents are numbered by the hundreds.
There is scarcely day that somebody
fin the woods is not reported as having
been killed or desI erately injured,
Many of the injured may be seen walk
ing the streets of Duluth, after their
hospital experience, in many cases
crippled for life. 1t is said that the
usual precautions against accidents
prevail everywhere, and the increased
number of kills and the MANNED may
be attributed TO the greater number
employed.
