GETS roo CLOSE TO PRINCE
stranger is Arrested, but Protests
His Innocence of Serious
~ &, Intentions.

NEW YORK, Feb. 27.-A man who pre-
tended to be a mail clerk was arrested and
hustled way, struggling, through the
crowd at the Jersey City terminal early to-
day, Just as Prince Henry boarded his spe.
cial train for Washington. The prince had
stopped for a moment at the rear end of
his car and was chatting with a few gentle
men. He quickly stepped beyond the car
that he might more readily observe what
was going on. He saw a policeman strug-
cling with a maj in plain clothes who was
very vigorously protesting against arrest.
The policeman forced the man toward the
ropes, dragged him into the crowd and hur-
ried him along the station to the street. II
was learned hat the policeman had been
watching the man, who persisted In remain
ing in the neighborhood OF the princes car,
and, becoming suspicious, had decided to
take him into custody. The of1cer said his
prisoner had attempted to enter the
princes car.
Outside the station the man said his NAM
was Lemuel KRAMER and displayed a shield,
which. he said. Identified him as a railway
clerk connected with the railway service.
In the mail room at the depot the man was
not identified. His case Will be submitted
to a postofice inspector.
Lemuel Cramer was a%rraigned today OF
q charge Of disorderly conduct. TIE pris-
oner said he had only wished to see the
prince; that the affair had been a. lessor
to him. but thought he could have ex.
planned matters to the police IL they hac
given him an opportunity. He was inct

FOR NEBRASKA
Interstate Congress Hears Arguments in
Favor Of Platte Valley.
HAYNES or GREELEY MAKES STRONG PLEA
Governor savage Talks to Farmers
fron Rear Platform During Raii-
road Trip TO Irrigation
Reservoirs.

STERLING, Colo, Feb. 27.-Cspecial Tele-
gram.)-The delegates to the Interstate
Irrigation congress took q trip to Atwood
and Merino over the Denver a Montana
railway and we're conducted over the route
by Superintendent Campbell OF the Bur
lington, OF McCook, Neb. Governor Savage
made several rear platform addresses to
the farmers e%nroute, urging the great pos
sibilities of irrigation.
Speeches we're made by several prominent
irrigationists at the afternoon session. after
which the committee on resolutions adopted
a platform, f~avorlng national as opposed to
state aid for control Of the reclamation OF
arid lands.
Hon. II. N. Haynes of Greeley made a
masterfui address. He spoke OF the early
and later irrigation developments OF north
ern and northeastern Colorado and OF the
possibilities OF that great movement in
southwestern Nebraska in. a logical and sta
tistical way. The speaker illustrated that
under a complete system Of reservoirs q
more even flow Of water was maintained
in the streams, the result Of seepage, and
ably argued that more reservoirs be con-
structed. AS their construction continued
farther down the river and nearer to the
state line Of Nebraska, he said, the flow of
the Platte through that state would be
more evenly maintained, IL not made
stronger than ever before.
He suggested that the people OF this
great territory of the Platte river should
not wait for national aid, but should at
once proceed to organize in local bodies
for the purpose Of building water storage
reservoirs.
Platform Urges government Action.
At today's session OF the Irrigation Con-
gress Of Colorado, Wyoming and Nebraska
the resolutions committee made It's report,
which was adopted. The resolutions recite
that a vast area OF the public domain now
Of comparatively little value may be re-
claimed through irrigation, and quote the
oficlal utterances of President Roosevelt
and Secretary Hitchcock in support of the
claim that the government should UNDER
take such reclamation. A general revision
Of the land laws Is asked, especially the
repeal OF the Communication clause OF the
homestead act, the desert land act and the
stock reservoir act. Cession OF the arid
lands to the states is opposed. An ap-
preparation by congress OF $250, 900 is asked
for surveys and experiments and a larger
appropriation for permanent work. The
preservation Of the forests is urged.
This morning the members Of the congress
visited the irrigation reservoirs in this
vicinity and this afternoon Governor Savage
and others addressed the congress.

and Senators Pettus and Bailey, democrats.
All we're present at the early part OF the
meeting. but Senator Bailey was compelled
by indisposition TO leave the conference
before its close. Today's meeting was a
very harmonious one and little difference
OF opinion developed, The republican
members OF the subcommittee did not them
selves contend for a resolution sus-
pending the two senators. but represented
that there we're some republican mem
bers Of the full committee who adhere to
the opinion that through suspension only
can adequate punishment be melted out to
the offending members.
Senator Beverage is understood to be
among the most strenuous advocates OF
this form Of proceedings. and Senator Nc
Comas is inclined to agree with him. Some
doubt is expressed as to whether they
will unite in a report limiting the pun
ishment to censure.
On the other hand some OF the demo-
cratic members made 1t very plain that
they not only would not agree In COM
mittee to the reporting OF a resolution OF
suspension, but that IL such a resolution
should be presented TO the senate by a
majority of the committee they would
resist it's adoption by the senate to the
extent OF insisting on prolonged debate.
The republican members Of the COM
mittee and many republican senators who
are not MEMBERS Of the committee, have
given very serious attention to the delay
In the senate, and there is no doubt It is
having a pronounced influence on the dis
posal Of the question. They recognize
the fact that II so disposed the minority
can obstruct all legislation for an in
definite time and probably continue the
present session Of congress far into the
summer. Some Of them also hold the
view that censure is a more severe and
certain form OF punishment than suspen-
sion.
These are the reasons which have led
the republican members Of the subcom-
mittee to agree to a resolution OF cen
sure and nothing is left to complete the
proceeding hut to secure the assent Of
their republican colleagues who are not
members OF the subcommittee. The mat
ter has been left for consultation with
them, and while the full committee has
been called to meet tomorrow at 1926
| o'clock the subcommittee will meet halt
an hour previous to that time. This will
| afford opportunity to notify the democrats
II there should be a change Of program.
