strikes now on in Pennsylvania, West
Virginia and Colorado to a successful

ey will be used freely In all about

them the board would now so out as

1T WOULDN'T WORK
House Refused TO Change Plan Of Seed
Distribution.

Washington, Feb. 6.-Mr. Sheppard
(Dem., Tex, one of the youngest
members of the house, made deter
mined and persistent effort to bring
about a reform in the matter of the
distribution of seeds by the govern
ment He commended that the present
system is bad. Mr.. Sheppard's first
move was to have struck from the
agricultural appropriation bill certain
sections providing the machinery for
the distribution of the seeds author
lied to be purchased under the bill
In this he was successful, his point of
order being sustained by the chair,
but by an overwhelming vote the
house promptly added the section to
the bill by way of amendment. Only
three members voted In opposition to
the restoration. Mr.. Sheppard's fur
Their effort was to secure an amend
ment to the restored sections which
would provide for the purchase of rare
and untried seeds, but despite his
earnest appeal for this amendment it
failed and the bill was left just as the
committee brought it into the house,
so far as seeds for free distribution
were concerned.
This was the only item in the bill
that aroused serious discussion, and
with a few minor amendments it was
passed by the house without division.
The political debate in the senate on
the proposed loan of $4,000 900 to the
ST. Louis exposition, which has been
in progress on a point of order for the
past three days, came to a close
through a vote which left the provi-
sion in the urgent deficiency appropri
alton bill, which was passed.

SITUATION SERIOUS
San Domingo City RuthIessiy Besieged
by insurgents.


San Domingo, Saturday, Jan. go
delayed in transmission)- Ger
man consul here has requested United
States Minister Powell to afford pro-
lection to Herr Woman, the German
vice consul, that he might bring his
family into the city, as the insurgents
have given Mr.. Woman forty eight
hours to leave where he is or suffer
the consequences. Consequently Mr..
Powell secured a gaurd of sixty men
from the United States cruiser Column
bia and informed the government that
it was the intention of the German
consul and himself to bring Herr Wor-
mans family into the city, and asked
the government that its troops not fire
upon his party while it was on it's mis-
sion. He said that if fred upon they
would protect themselves. As soon as
the guard passed outside the city they
were covered by the guns of the Col
umbia No attack was made and the
Woman family and their belongings
were brought back here in safety.
All the houses. outside the city walls
have been pi1laged. The insurgents
are desperate and destroying foreign
property wherever they find it. Mr..
Powell has received urgent appeals
to protect foreign property against this
pillaging. and the Columbia may be
compelled to land marines to do SO.
The firing around the city continues.
The situation is serious, the prices of
provisions are very high, and the poor
are suffering from want of food.

The Princeton Oil Field.

: Princeton, Ind, Feb. 6.-Standard
oil well No 2, on the Geiser land west
of town, is in with a flow equal to or
better than Geiser No 1, which was
the best in the field The Standard
people have rated Geiser No. l as a
twenty barrel producer, though it
was known to be much better. Now it
is learned that the well is yielding not
less than 200 barrels a day. With
Geiser No. 2 as good, it would seem
that the heart of the field is located
there. 1t is two and, one-half miles
to the west and a little north of the
city. Other wells are being drilled on
leases all around the Geiser farm,
which is twenty acres in extent.

SENATOR HANNA's CONDITION
His Illness Is Now Declared to be
Typhoid Fever.

Typhoid Fever.
Washington Feb. 6.-Senator Han
mas illness is officially pronounced by
his physicians to be irregular typhoid,
that is. typhoid fever, with the fever
symptoms less regular and marked
than pronounced types of the disease.
1t is stated that there are no organic
complications to add to the serious
ness of the case, but the senator at the
time of the attack was in a literally
worked out condition, so that his ex-
IRENE physical weakness and nervous
depression, coupled with his age
sixty-six years. and frequent recent
rheumatic attacks, makes the case one
of much more gravity than an ordinary
attack of typhoid. The crisis of the
fever is not expected before the mid
die Of next week The senator is en-
tirely conscious and insisted on some
papers being brought to him for his
signature. but was so weak that when
he was put off two or three times he
dropped off into slumber from exhaus-
ton. his physician expresses conf
dence in the senator's recovery. but
admits that even if no complications
or unforeseen developments of any
and viii require the most careful and
painstaking nursing. No one except
Mrs Hanna. Miss Phelps, the sena-
tors niece, and Mr. Elmer Dover. his
secretary. are permitted to see him
aside from, the doctors and two trained
nurses.

Democrats VIII Not Agree to Early

Washington, Feb. 6.-Senator Gull
1om in executive session of the senate
again urged the Democrats to permit
the Panama canal treaty to come to
a vote at an early date. This in effect
was agreed to by the Democrats, but
they would not bind themselves to any
date. Senator Culiom asked that a
time be fixed within the next two
weeks and argued that there was moth
ing to be gained by delay as it was
evident there was little more to be
said on either side for or against the
treaty. Few senators now want to be
heard and all thought that within a
week or ten days vote may be reach
ed without the formality of binding
the senate to any specific date
