Rivals, Yet Frien&.

could think of nothing adequate to say.
He could not explain further than he had

last. Mary Amman was tapping her boot

A SPIRITED coLLoQUY.
Dispute Over the Responsibility for
Senatorial Obstruction.

A spirited colloquy arose between Messrs.
Gallinger and Beverage in the Senate yes
terday afternoon during the course of Mr..
Kean's remarks on the statehood bill. The
question under discussion was the unequal
representation In Congress enjoyed by GER
tain states. Mr.. Ganinger remarked that
Mr.. Beverage was simply prolonging the
debate by referring to it.
II deny the right Of the SENATOR an
swered Mr.. Beverage, when a senator is
engaging in debate here to describe any
purpose which he may have"
II will take the right" quickly retorted
Mr.. Gallinger, ''to say that this is DELHI
crate and premeditated system of obstruc-
ton"
1--WE had the debate out on that subject
the other day." said Mr.. Beveridge, land l
think the Senate and the country under
stand where the real obstruction is"
Il think it does," sarcastically remarked
Mr. GallInger. He then read an editorial
from the Boston Herald, paper which he
said Is not in favor of admitting the three
territories, in which Mr.. Quay was exon
time of the Senate. There was applause in
the galleries, which brought from Mr.. Bev-
erIdge the remark: II see the senator has
his ready admirers in the galleries"
Mr.. Kean desired to be excused from
further discussing the bill yesterday on ac-
count Of severe cold.
Mr.. Quay was quickly on his feet and
with considerable humor combined with
sarcasm said: THE chair will perceive that
almost daily the progress Of this discus
sion Is checked by some suggestion Of this
character. The infirmities of the opponents
of the statehood bill are something fright
full to see, and are increasing. I fear before
the termination of the discussion they will
ali be in the hospital
Mr. Spooner remarked: IT suppose you
will not object if all the opponents Of the
bill go to the hospital"
Not in THE least" responded Mr.. QUAY.
In the midst of the laughter Mr.. Lodge re-
marked: Some of us will stay with you to
the end"
The Senate then at 4:35 p. m. went into
executive session, and at 4:45 p. m. adjourn

young man firmly.

Susie Hawkins. a young colored woman
about twenty years of age, was quite seri-
ously injured yesterday by falling from
the platform Of one Of the cars of the train
due at this station at 900 o'clock Her
body was found under the platform leading
to the tool house situated at the north end
of the southbound track. and in rescuiag
her from the uncomfortable position the
strength of two men were necessary A pry-
sician dressed her injuries. after which she
was sent to the city hospital of Baltimore,
Md.
How the woman fell. or from what par.
Of the train, is a mystery to the train
crew. It was not known that an accident
had happened until a person who was
about to take the train asked if that par
ticular train threw off any mail for this
place. Upon being answered in the mega
tive. he told the crew that something had
fallen from the train before it had come to
a stop. Investigation resulted in the dis
covery noted.
