Euloges Admiral Schley. Denies Any Intention Of
Writing His Bogra6hv

Am I writing the life of Admiral
Schley? No, indeed. I'm resting.
Why, I'm seventy-five years old! Don't
you think I'm entitled to a rest? The
admiral is writing his own biography.
He is engaged on the book now. and
I think it will be finished within a
year"
A few men who have had picturesque
careers look the part. Col. A. K. Nc
Clure is one of these. AS he shook his
head last night in emphatic denial of
the charge that he was writing the life
of Admiral Schley, his very young
brown eyes flashed, his determined
chin was thrust out pugnaciously, his
eyebrows were drawn together in a
prOdigiOuS frOWn. Each strong feature
conveyed the impression in unmiStaka-
BILE fashion that if he should take up
his pen to write such a book. it would
settle forever the admirals detraCtOrs.

PerIey Barely Saves Senate Bill to Pun
Ish Grain Sweepers.

Representative Perley yesterday saved
Senator Peterson's grain pilfering bill
from defeat by quick lodging and a re-
committal to general order.
The bill is designed to stop the grow
ing practice of petty theft from grain cars
by so-called ''sweepers." Representative
Anderegg attacked the measure as vicious
law. He claimed that under its provisions
a man found with a bag of grain on his
shoulder would be liable to criminal prose-
cution, and that it reversed the rules of
evidence requiring the accused to prove
his innocence instead of presuming him
guiltlesS until proved to the contrary
Perley took cognizance of a storm more
than in the state of brewing. and un-
questionably saved the bill from defeat by
moving for a re-reference to general or
ders for amendment. So strong was the
opposition that a considerable portion Of
the house refused to sanction the re-
reference.
