MAYOR AMEs SPEAKS OUT
He Says Fake Auction Shops Are
Hard fo RHuuIate

When the matter of the protest of
N1collet avenue business men against
a fake auction store between Second
street south and Washington avenue was
called to the attention of the mayor yes
terday, his honor said:
This is by no means the first time
this matter of fake auction stores has
been brought to my knowledge. AS far
as this particular instance is concerned,
L am reliably Informed that the auc-
ctiOneer who rents the premises at 211
Nicollet avenue has lost his lease, and
win Yacate on May /.
ut may look like an easy thing to put
these auctioneers out of business, but
it isn't. The difficulty is to secure prCof
of fraud. Nine times out of ten the
victim is a greenhorn or a stranger and
generally both. Moreover, he is usually
drunk. When he makes complaint he
is often unable to tell where ne bought
the watch or other article on which he
was defrauded. He frequently fOrgetS
how much he paid for it. He rarely has
a single witness to corroborate a single
statement he makes. He simply declares
he has been defrauded. This last state
nent is usually true.
THE only power the mayor has is to
revoke the auctioneers license In many
instances have compelled an auctioneer
to refund money out of which he has
fceced a greenhOrn, and sometimes more,
too. But in many other cases it is i'm
possible to secure any testimony that
would warrant the slightest Interior
ence.
''In order to adequately protect all the
greenhorns, suckers and drunkards who
drift into a town of this size, it would
be necessary to detail a detective or -po-
IIceman to accompany each one. The
appropriation for the police department
will hardly permit of that
Moreover, the police department is
not a collection agency"
The mayor yesterday investigated the
above named place, and revoked the Ii
cense of the proprietor.

SENATOR CARMACk SCATHING IN
HIS DENUNCIATION
Says He StIrs Up War-Tennesseean
Speaks in Opposition to the Phil
ippine Government Bill, and
Criticises the President for His
Remarks.

WASHINGTON, D. c., April 26.-In a
speech on the Philippine government bill
in the senate yesterday Mr.. Carmack, Ten
neSsee, said that the bill, like the Philip
pine tariff bill, simply presented one as
pect OF Imperialism. 1t was not a ques-
ton only Of framing just laws for the
Filipinos, but a question of right to make
any laws whatever for that people.
THE claim of the Republicans" said
he, lis that they have burned enough
towns, wasted enough country and killed
enough people to make good their right
The land is ours because we have StreWn
it with the ashes of its homes and drench-
ed it with the blood of its people"
Opponents of this policy denied that
we had derived any just powers Of gov
eminent from the subjugation of the
governed and this was the real issue OF
this debate. In a former debate, he said.
Mr.. Spooner had charged that the minori-
ty had prostituted the question to par
tisan purposes and that Mr. Bryan had
seized upon it to force an issue with the
administration. Unfortunately for this
argument, the fact was that Mr.. Bryan
had declared his position upon this ques-
ton long before anybody knew that the
policy of the administration would be-
At that time the public utterances of
Mckinley and Bryan were in exact ac-
cord and if the administration had not
reversed its policy there would have been
no difference between them.
Partisanship Is Avoided.
The Democrats in the senate, he in
sisted. had tried to remove the question
from party politics. 1t was now claimed
that the civil authority of the United
States was supreme throughout the Phil
ippines and it was treason for Demo
crat to express an opinion. He cited the
public utterances of President Mckinley
and Mr. Roosevelt and the speeches of
Republican senators and quoted from
the Republican campaign book to show
that a general policy Of colonialism and
conquest was advocated as Republican
doctrine.
THE idea that you can transform the
character of race by teaching them to
read" said he, lis the widest, craziest,
the most fantastic dream That ever fitted
through lunatic's brain" He quoted ut
terances from Mr. Roosevelt, charging
that Unreasonable utterances had in
cited the F>ilipinos to fnsurrection and
said that I'VE must not Judge the presi-
dent in his moments Of oratorical feroci-
ty or when the frenzy of battle was in
his blood" The president was not vim
dictive. but simply Strenuous. he said,
and resembled in his habits of speech a

said that running away was his natural
