Senator Bailey Makes Spirited Spec ek
Against Civil Service.
Washington, April 16.-After a day
devoted to quite routine proceedings,
the senate was treated to a spirited
speech by MIR. Bailey Just before ad.
with the "iridescent dream" of civil
service. Mr.. Bailey announced in
plain terms that he had no sympathy
with the irridescent dream" of civil
service. He declared that each party
should control the patronage while in
power and avowed himself a spoils-
man. Mr.. Hale was in accord with
much that Mr.. Bailey said, but de-.
clared that congress could not be in.
duced to change the law even though
convinced that it should be changed.
The Panama canal bill occupied the
major portion of the day and was
passed without division.
Consideration of the general de.
ficiency bill was resumed in the house
yesterday after a number of minor
bills had been passed. The presidents
recent order regarding service pen
sions was attacked by Mr. Under
wood of Alabama, who contended
that there was no warrant in law for
it. General debate on the deficiency
bill will close to-day and the bill will
be read for amendment

Hlobik has been convicted Of murder
In the first degree for killing his trav-
cling companion, George Sedlacek,

Minneapolis, April 16. - DR.. A. A,

or mayor was brought into court, and
before Judge Elliott he entered a plea
Of not guilty. The trial Of the case
was set for May 2. The indictment
returned yesterday contains an &C.
cusation of but one offense. 1t is

Ames, during December, 1901, and
while he was mayor of the city, re.
ceived, through his agent, Irwin A.
Gardner, $40, which was paid to him
by Bessie Lee in return for police
protection, meaning that she was to

Seoul, April II. - Fire broke out
Thursday night at the back OF the i'm
perial private apartments in the pal
ace compound, near the WALL where
several private houses are situated.
The imperial family, headed by the
emperor, vi Hi Young, fled in great
haste and escaped with some difficulty
to the American legation. The flames
spread rapidly and in short time
they became beyond control Fortu-
nately for the city the wind which
was brisk, blew from the northwest
and the flames were carried
Inside the Palace grounds.
This saved the British legation and
the English church and orphanage. In
short time the various buildings in
the compound were destroyed. The
rooms of European construction, in
which the emperor usually held audi
ences, shared the same fate. Unfortu-
nately Korean etiQuet keep the gates
locked and the fire brigade was not
admitted. A magnificent spectacle was
presented when the central hall, a
large native structure built at cost
of 100000 yen ($250,000), caught fire.
The flames threatened the foreign pal
ace and were kept in check only by
the British legation guard, which ef-
fected an entrance through the outer
wall and saved the customs buildings
and probably prevented the loss of
The American Legation.
Japanese, French and Italian sol.
diers forced an entrance into the CON-
pound and tore down the burning
houses and sheds, thus preventing the
spread of the fire. Half an hour after
the fire broke out the roof of the audi
ence hall fell in with great crash.
The roof of another large building fell
in also about the same time and pre-
vented the flames from being carried
by the wind to the newly erected cleo
trio building, where large quantity
of oil is stored.
Crowds of Korean soldiers, in 9
state Of great excitement, ran about
within the compound, turning owe.
each other in their hurry and doing
nothing practical.

LIE Sueur, Mimi. April 16.-There

ecution by the state humane society.
A short time ago one we'll known
resident of that part of the county
sold out his interest in farm to a
neighbor and in making out the list
OF things sold, he included one or
phan boy about the age of fourteen
years whom he had taken from lot
brought into the neighborhood from
Boston. He sold his interest in the
boy and transferred the adoption pa
pers for the sum of $25, which was
paid to him in cash by the purchaser.
A few days ago another of the un-
fortunate orphans, girl named Kate
Hanafon, nearly eighteen years Of
age, having been worked strenuous

and having even not sufficient cloth

to $40 from the family till and ran
away. She was apprehended at LIE
Sueur by Constable Roswell Tousley
and held in custody for few days.
She returned the money and told her
piteous story and the prosecution
against her was dropped. One of the
severe pieces of work the poor girl
had to do was to wade in icy water
In cold weather and chase the ducks.
At another place there Is a girl

able rig on she had to drive the cattle

there, and in the morning she con-

back with a pitchfork. There are 9th.

that such cruelty could exist in
