Recommended For Soldiers Home.

Lansing, Mich, March 1S.-The SEN
ate committee on state affairs Tuesday
afternoon reported out Senator Sleep
er's hill making an appropriation for
the worlds fair at st. Louis, unani-
mously recommending that the amount
be fixed at S125,000, of which $4,000
be expended for a building, and the
balance, $4,000, be used for the ex-
pense of the commission and the ex-

The senate passed Senator Kelly's
bill, providing for the formation OF
real estate corporations. AS the law

can only hold three acres of land and
capitalize at $1,000,000. The Kelly bill
provides for the holding of 800 acres
of land and capitalization at $4,000.

turned down the bill of Representative
Van Zoeren, to provide for bridge
over the Grand river near Grand Rap

Among the bills passed by the senate
yesterday was Kelly's, for submitting
to the referendum the question OF call

bill was opposed by Senator Scripps.
The Morrice bill, empowering town
ship commissioners of highways, with
the consent of the township boards, to
purchase all necessary tools and ma

for "a few minutes Tuesday afternoon.
The bill was finally agreed to in com

RATIFIED AT LAST.
Senate Casts Almost Unanimous
Vote For Canal Measure.
DAY GIVEN OVER TO DEBATE
Senators Hopeful of an Immediate Ad.
journment-Bright Outlook For Fa-
vorsble Action on Cuban Treaty
Carried over to Next Session.

Washington, March 1S.-Without
dotting an 'P' or crossing a st." even
without changing single punctuation
mark, the senate Tuesday voted to
ratify the treaty with the republic Of
Colombia for the construction of an
isthmian canal. The vote for ratifica-
ton was 73 in the affirmative to in
the negative. The senate was in exec
utlve session when the result was an
nounced, so that only the senators
themselves and few confidential en-
ployeS were present. All the senators
announced themselves as gratifed to
have the long struggle terminated
The day vas given up almost entire
ly to general debate on the treaty, and
In addition to the set speeches made
under the general agreement by Sen
ators Morgan and Cullom there were
many short addresses and a rather
long speech by Senator Daniel of Vir-
ginia.
Most of the senators in the city left
the capital at z o'clock last night in
the finn conviction that it would be
possible to conclude the called session
today and that when the senate should
next adjourn, the adjournment would
be sine die.
This conclusion involved quite gen.
eral understanding that the Cuban rec
iprocity treaty could be much more
speedily disposed of'than has been con-
sidered possible heretofore. There was
some senators who expressed the
opinion that more than one days time
would be found necessary for the pre-
sentation of arguments for and against
the agreement, but a canvass of the
senate soon developed the fact that
only the two Louisiana senators de-
sired to be heard on the treaty at
length at this time, and that they
would not now say so much as they
would have said il the committee on
foreign relations had not agreed to
recommend that the treaty be submit
ted to cong1 ess for its approval
This submission will be in the shape
of Il joint resolution at the next ses-
sion Of congress, and as this can be
, discussed in open session. all those
who opposed the treaty consider that
that time would be more opportune for
argument than the present, as they
them will be able to appeal to the coun-
try at large as. well as to the senate.
1t is the general opinion that the
treaty will be ratified by safe ma
jority.

Lansing, Mich, March 17.-Harvey
Lamoreaux and wife of Delhi township
have instituted legal proceedings to re-
cover from their sons, James and
Salem, the deed for the farm upon
which the aged couple spent fifty-eight
plant alleges that the sons induced
the parents to deed them the property

of four daughters were spendthrifts
and any money or property given the
daughters would be squandered. After
securing the deeds the sons made a
pretense of supporting the old folks.
but finally compelled them. by i'll
treatment, to leave and seek home
elsewhere.

Alleged Promoter Of Frauds Arrested
In New York.

In New York.
New York, March 16.--J. Whitaker
Wright, the London promoter, who is
accused of being concerned in colossal
frauds in connection with the organi-
zation of various financial corpora
tions, was arrested Sunday on the ar
rival of the French line steamer La
Lorraine from Havre. The arrest was
made by two central Office detectives
at the request of the London police.
With Wright on the steamship was
tall, good-looking young woman, who
said she was the niece of the prisoner.
The financial crash of the companies
fioated by Whitaker Wright came in
December, 1900. There were eleven Of
these, including the parent company,
entitled the London & Globe Finance
Corporation, with total capitalization
of $60,675,O00. Wright was the man
aging director.
Few millionaires lived in the same
princely style as Whitaker Wright. In
Park lane, London, he had miniature
palace.
One of the victims of the crash was
the late Marquis of Dufferin and Ava,
formerly governor-general of Canada
and British ambassador to Paris. He
consented to be chairman of the Lon
don & Globe, and had $4,000 shares in
the different companies.
Much American money was lost in
the failure of the Wright companies.
There was great cutlery against the
attitude of the authorities in not pros.
ecuting Wright and his fellow direc.
tors of the London & Globe company.
and in January last petition was cir.
culated on the London Stock Exchange
signed by many influential men, de-
handing the prosecution of Wright.

Washington, March 17.-By direc-
ton of Secretary Root, the war depart
ment Monday embarked on the exten.
sive work of compiling and publishing
a complete roster of the officers and
enlisted men of the union and confed-
crate armies. This is the secretary IS
own project and he succeeded in inn
pressing congress with the idea that il
would be only just and fair to the
south to place on the Official lists the
names of the confederate soldiers in
order that their descendants may trace
their family histories with accuracy.

Shot While eoina to Work.

Wilkesbarre, Pa, March 16.-An-
thony McHugh, freight conductor on
the Lehigh Valley railroad, and James
Kearney were found on the main street
of Pittston early Sunday bleeding from
gunshot wounds. Both men were on
their way to work when they were
shot. McHugh died shortly after being
discovered. Kearney was taken to the
City hospital, where it was found that
he was shot near the heart, and his re-
covery is doubtful. The shooting is a
mystery and the police are unable to
find any traces of the murderers.

MURDERED BURDlCK.
His Partner Believes PenneIl Was
Guilty of the Crime.

Buffalo, March 1S.-The name of
Arthur r. Pennell, who was named as
correspondent in the Burdick divorce
proceedings and who met a terrible
death in Genres stone quarry two
weeks ago, since Edwin L. Burdick
was murdered, constantly came to the
surface in the inquest before Judge
Murphy Tuesday. Charles S. Parke,
Burdick's former business partner and
close friend, while on the witness
stand in the afternoon gave it as his
opinion, based upon information and
supposition, that Pennell or hired as
sassin killed Burdick. Fear of dis
closures, growing out of the divorce
proceedings instituted by Mr.. BurdiclS
against his wife, Mr.. Parke firmly be-
neved was the motive for the crime,
