Congressman Cochran Of Missouri
Causes a Stir in the
House.
SHARP RET0RTs IN DEBATE.
Almond and Shackleford Con-
demned the Measure-Only
Six Votes Were Cast in
the Negative.

Washington. Feb. 13-During the course
Of Mr.. Hepburn's remarks on the Elkins
rebate bill Mr.. Cochran Of Missouri said
one of his statements was n deliberate
lie."
Mr.. Hepburn was speaking of the charac-
ter of the measures the Democrats had
voted for, saying among other things that
they had voted for a proposition under
which 1t would have been possible to fine
the Pennsylvania Railroad Company $780,
OO for a single act.
They would. he said. stop at nothing la
belcd antitrust" Then, while explaining
the provisions of the pending bill. he denied
a statement previously made by Mr.. Coch-
ran That the bill relieved individual officers
of railroads.
4 say there is no repeal from first to
last in all this legislation -" he was say
ing when Cochran sought TO interrupt him.
Il prefer not to YIELD" said MIR. Hepburn.
Mr.. Cochran: THE, gentleman ought not
II he does not wish to yield"
Mr.. Hepburn: Il ought to refer to the
gentleman at any time when he deliberately
misstates a proposition"
Mr.. Cochran: Il brand that as a delib-
crate lie, did not deliberately misstate
Mr.; Hepburn: Then ignorantly. The
gentleman can take either proposition. 1
say, there IS no repeal of the present statute
making. culpable and responsible crimlnally
the Individual under the interstate COM
merce law"
Mr.. Cochran characterized the bill az n
"brazen and shameless" imposition upon the
credulity of the people. His argument was
chiefly directed against the repeating of all
the provisions of existing lawmaking Of
fcers and agents of railroads guilty OF dis
scrimination punishable by fine and impris-
onment.
MIR. De Almond denied emphaticaIly that
the country was demanding the enactment
Of the Elkins bill. 1T will do no good"
said he. land the people foremost in urg-
ing 1t know it. That is the reason they
urge It," Democratic applauseD There
was nothing in the bill, he said, that was
rot on the statute books, excepting the
clauses repeating existing penalty provi-
SONS of law. To repeal those penalties, he
said. was the real purpose. The bill, he de-
ciared, was an attempt to ''bunko' the
people and to prevent the offering of
amendments, the majority dare not vote
against" 1t was a mere 'demaEogic play
to stifie legislation.
The gentleman from Illinois (Mr. Cam
non)." he said. says the author of the bill
Is not a great lawyer. He may not be, but
he is great in other things-a master Of the
art of this sort of legislation"
MIR. Shackleford denounced the course of
the majority in refusing to permit the mi
nority to offer as an amendment the Lit
tlefield bill passed last Saturday.

An Ancient Invention.

Archimedes OF Syracuse, when he
was In Egypt, invented the earliest ma
chine for pumping bilge water out Of
the holds of ships. The instrument
was also used in the Delta for purposes
of irrigation. Diordorus Siculus twice
refers to 1t in his writings. A curious
model of such an instrument, probably
of the late Ptolemaic period, has been
found in Lower Egypt. 1t consists Of
a terra-cotta cylinder with a screw in
side it, ten inches long and four and a
half inches in diameter. Near the
center of the outside is a band with
cross-pieces. These may represent foot
holds, and suggest that the machine
was worked after the manner of the
treadmill. Such screws were probably
made of wood.

Science VS.. Disease.

Five deadly diseases have been
shorn of their worst terrors by the
method of treatment introduced by
Pasteur. In hydrophobia, which pre-
viously had been uniformly fatal, the
mortality under antitoxin treatment is
one in FIVE hundred. In diphtheria
the number of deaths have been re.
duced from one in two to one in
eight. In lockjaw the serum will pre-
vent the disease If used soon after the
wound is inflicted, and it has recently
cured two cases in which It was in
jected into the brain and spine, and
the deaths from bubonic plague are
reduced from 60 to Is per cent.
