M0lik Arrests a Deputy,

Police Officer John Molik, of the
Freeland force, had business in Nanti-
coke on Sunday, and with Daniel Null
raney, who accompanied him, figured in
an incident in that town. The Nanti-
coke correspondent of the Wilkesbarre
Record gives the details, as follows
"Whie Buff Thorne was going up
Market street Sunday evening deputy
employed by the D., L. g. w. Co. point
ed revolver at him and attempted to
shoot him. Two men from Freeland
happened to pass them in buggy and
one OF them jumped from the buggy
just in the nick of time He grabbed
the man and took him to the burgesss
office. He was found to be under the
influence Of liquor. Had it not hap
pened that the two men from Freeland
passed them, something more serious
might have happened
"Van Fossen, the deputy, was arraign-
ed next morning before the burgess on
the charge of flourishing revolver and
threatening to shoot Thorne. Thorne
swore that he was walking on Market
street when Van Fossen told him that
II he would move another yard he would
shoot him. Mr.. Van Fossen stated that
Thorne was running after him and that
he, Van Fossrn, told him to stop. Van
Fossen was sentenced to pay fine of
$50 or go to jail for thirty days. In
default Of payment he was taken to the
county jail"

Be Sent to Freeland.
Drifton and Upper Lehigh
Are Also Ignored in the
Assignment Orders--Four
Companies for Jeddo.

BY this evening the entire National
Guard Of Pennsylvania, consisting of
10,076 officers and men, will be on duty
10 the anthracite coal field, as result
of the order issued late Monday night
by Governor Stone. For SOME weeks
past the greater part Of the Third
brigade has been on duty In the region,
but this force was represented by the
operators as inadequate to afford protec-
tion for those who desire to work In the
mines, and in response to repeated calls
for more trrops the governor has furn-
ished the operators with all the soldiers
In the state, fourteen regiments OF in
fantry, four troops of cavalry and three
batteries Of artillery.
The various commands OF the Guard
are now here or are on their way to the
coal field. The first regiment to arrive
was the First, OF Philadelphia, which
reached Hazleton at daybreak this
morning The regiment is commanded
by Colonel Wendell p Bowman and is
composed of twelve companies. 1t is
known as the "crack" regiment of the
state.
The original intention was to concen-
trate the regiment at Hazleton and
send out details OF troops to the North
and South sides of the city, according
as they might be required, but after a
consultation held this morning by the
officers of the regiment and John
Markle, Frank Pardee and A. w. Drake
this plan was abandoned.
Colonel Bowman established his head
quarters in the armory Of Company G,
of the Ninth regiment, in Hazleton.
Companies d and C and squad of Bat
terry A were assigned to headquarters;
Companies X, II, and M, under COM
mand OF Lieutenant Colonel Good, 20 to
Jeddo; Companies B and L, under Major
Kensel, 60 to Lattimer; Companies and
G, under Major Williams, were placed
on duty at Hazleton Lehigh Valley
shops, near No. 40 colliery, and Com
panies and A, under Captain Hunt, go
to anberry.
There will be considerable agreeable
disappointment in Freeland when 1t
becomes known that no troops are to be
stationed here. 1t was expected that
Freeland, Drifton and Upper Lehigh
would each receive company, but
John Markle has apparently captured
all that could be spared for this end of
this region.

That's my decision" said Latham, and

cRITIcISES THE PRESIDENT
Alabama Representative Takes Excep-
tiOns to Part of R~oOseveIt's
Memorial Day Speech,

WASHINGTON. June 6.-General debate
on the anti-anarchy bill closed today.
The incident OF the day was a speech
by Mr.. Richardson, an Alabama democrat.
condemning the president in severe terms
for the references in his Memorial day ora
ton at Arlington to the epithets applied
to Lincoln and Grant during the civil war
and for his illusions to lynching In the
south. He declared that the presidents
remarks violated the proprieties of the
occasion.
Mr.. Richardson, during the course
OF some remarks upon the bill. caus-
tically criticised President Roosevelt's
Memorial day Grafton at Arlington, He re-
called the visit of the late President Nc
Kinley to Huntsville, Ala, a year ago, the
reception given him by the confederate and
union veterans. The noble sentiments Mr..
Mckinley uttered upon that occasion, MIR.
Richardson said, endeared him to the south
and he told Of the great sorrow felt there
when Mr. Mckinley fell at Buffalo. Re-
luctant as he was to do so, Mr.. Richardson
said, he felt 1t his painful duty to contrast
Mr.. McKinley's sentiments at Huntsville
with Mr.. Roosevelt's remarks at Arlington
May 90.
81 doubt whether there is" said he. "a
brave federal soldier within the sound Of
my voice who would have uttered the senti-
ments expressed by the president, even
in the heat Of debate, much less upon
Memorial day. l say the proprieties OF
the occasion we're violated when the presi-
dent referred to what had been said about
Lincoln in the heat OF blood when men
were aiming at others lives"
Mr.. Littleheld made a legal argument
Of an hour and a half in closing the debate
on the anarchy bill. The section OF the
senate bill providing a bodyguard for the
president was stricken from the. senate bill
as a precaution in case the house substi-
tute failed. An effort was made to strike
from the first section of the substitute the
words limiting the crime Of killing the
president to the president In his official
capacity" but the motion was lost-63 to 80.
Mr.. Hull OF Iowa, chairman of the COM
mittee on military affairs. reported back
the resolution requesting information as to
salary or other compensation paid to Gen.
eral Leonard Wood during the occupation
of Cuba. The committee recommended that
1t lie on the table.
Mr.. Richardson, the minority leader,
asked If the resolution was not debatable.
When the speaker responded in the mega
tive, Mr.. Bartlett of Georgia, formally
made the point of order that being a reso-
luton of inquiry, and not having been re-
ported to the house within a week after
its introduction, 1t became privileged and
was debatable. The speaker overruled the
point Of order.
On a rising vote there were II votes fol
Mr.. Hull's motion and IS against 1t, the
division being on party lines with the ex-
ception of that OF Mr.. Grosvenor Of Ohio
who voted with the democrats. Mr.. Hay
OF Virginia demanded the ayes and pays
and the roll was called.
The resolution was laid upon the table

NOT A POLITICAL QUESTION
Construction of Canal, Says Senator
Hanna, IL a Simple Matter
of Business.

WASHINGTON, June 6.-After transact
ing some routine business today the senate
resumed consideration of the isthmian canal
bill, Mr.. Hanna Of Ohio continuing his ar
gument in support OF the Panama canal.
The Ohio senator declared that no political
considerations were involved in the canal
problem. He presented the opinions of
eighty-three shipmssters and pilots IN favor
OF the Panama route as against the Nicara-
qua roue, for many reasons which they
cited.
He urged tina the construction OF the
Nicaragua canal was beset with unknown
difficulties, while the construction OF the
Panama canal was IAN open book" He
laid particular stress upon the danger to
the Nicaragua route from volcanoes and
urged that it would not be good policy to
ignore those dangers in expanding $780,
900, 900.
Mr.. Hanna appealed to the senate to
consider the matter as q business PROPOSE
ton, and, with some feeling, ~repudiated
the suggestion that those f~avoring the
Panama route were not in favor OF any
canal.
Mr., Hanna referred to some comments
made by Mr.. Mitchell OF Oregon, IN which
the senator had spoken Of the advantages
Of the Nicaragua route, while the Hanna
| commission" had reported once in favor
( Of the Nicaragua route.
Mr.. Hanna said he took exception to the
insinuation that this was Hanna's COM
mission"
81 consider" said he. that I am here to
do my duty to my country, and when / am
placed on an important committee, with
which is charged IN important duty, l am
determined to discharge that duty faith
fully and conscientiously."
Mr.. Morgan, chairman Of the committee
on interoceanic canals, presented a letter
from Secretary OF State Hay, enclosing
copies Of letters received by the State de-
partment regarding earthquakes and riots
in the Department OF Panama.
The letters enclosed newspaper clippings
describing the earthquakes. The secretary
Of state said that the report Of the riots
would cover 1000 typewritten pages and
the department could not furnish it within
a month. The newspaper clippings, which
were read, described in detail the damage
done by the earthquake in 1882.
The documents were referred to the COM
mittee on interoceanic canals, "in order
that the committee may determine" said
Mr.. Morgan, whether 1t is necessary for
the secretary of state to have the months
work done on the report Of riots"
Bills were passed as follows: To ratify
a supplemental agreement with the Greek
Indians; Tatifying the act OF the territorial
legislature Of Arizona; providing a fund for
the erection Of additional buildings for the
University Of Arizona; authorizing the trus-
tees OF Navajo county. ARIZONA, to refund
S43. 900 OF its bonded Indebtedness at 5 per
cent, and a large number Of pension bills.
