gled and nearly every bone was broken.
G. e. Rollins, a car inspector, who
was hanging onto a car several cars
behind the one which killed Groves,
was a witness to the scene. He saw
Groves, who vas on the engine, jump
to the ground and run along with the
moving train with his hand on the
engine. His attention was called else
where and when he looked again he
saw that Groves had stumbled and was
being crushed under the forward
trucks of the first freight car OF the
train.
The dead man was evidently en-
gagged in shutting off the steam from
the engine to the train when his foot
caught in frog which held him and
allowed the car trucks to pass over
his body.
DR.. Marston was summoned and
after viewing the remains pronounced
that death was instantaneous. He
gave directions for the care of the re-
mains and they were carried to the
baggage room and later taken to the
undertaking rooms of Coroner +. S.
Curtis, where Doctor Marston made
an examination which showed that all
the bones of the right side OF the head
We're crushed, all the ribs on both sides
We're crushed, the back bone was
crushed nearly the entire length, the

IN THE SENATE.
Bailey Of Texas Has His Say on Cuban
Reciprocity.

Washington. Dec. 14.-Whcn the
Senate convened, today. Bailey, Texas,
smoke on the Cuban bill. He opposed
the measure, declaring it to be vicious
both as a matter of law and OF policy.
The question of law, he said. should
be considered first, and in that con-
nection he laid down three PROPOSE
tons. The first was that the House
of Representative alone has the right
to originate revenue bills and neither
the President and Senate Joined, pos
sess the power to enact legislation af-
fecting revenues.
The second declared that the consti-
tuition of the republic commits the
treaty making power to the President
and the Senate and the House of Rep
resentatives has no right to approve
or disapprove the Cuban treaty. The
third proposition asserted that neither
the President and Senate alone nor the
President and Senate acting in con-
junction with the House of Represent
tatives has the right to originate such
revenue measures and that what is
null and void in it's beginning must be
null and void throughout.
art. Bailey said the President believed
just rs the Nevada senator did.
'Then he is good lawyer" responded
Senator Stewart.
Il never heard that he was a lawyer at
all, answered Bailey. While I have
heard that he has spent days and nights
ut lighter literature. | am not aware that
he has encountered the drudgery of the
law-and more's the pity for it,
He declared that the President by the
course followed in this treaty had per-
formed an insolent usurpation of the
privileges of the House
The proceedings, he declared,
amounted to moral and political coer-
cion and it is matter of little wonder
that the Houes did not substitute for
the present measure the bill which it
passed under independent action less
than two years ago. Why did the
House forego it's independent judgment
of less than two years ago, he asked.
Why did it so mildly execute the Pres
dents will. 1t was because the House
was under the stripes of the executive
lash.
Bailey said that the first argument
advanced IN support of the bill was
that it was q duty to the suffering
Cubans, but driven from that, the
friends of the bill say that it is a great
commercial stroke. But, said Mr..
Bailey. Il say those who will reap the
benefits are the sugar and the tobacco
trusts and they have no right to it. I
believe the Republican senators are
honest in their support. 1 believe the
sole difficulty is one of intelligence"
In discussing the benefits of the bill,
Bailey said that every time the bill
was about to pass the sugar stock went
up and whenever the bill was about to
fail the stock went down.
Bailey announced at 3.45, that owing
to the condition of his throat he would
not continue his speech until tomorrow.
Depew remarked that many speeches
against the bill had contained state
