RELICS ARE CHASTITY
Duluth Contributes Criminal
Exhibits to Worlds Fair.
Special to The Globe.

Special to The Globe.
DULUTH, Mimi, March 25-In
spite of objection which has been made
in some quarters, Chief C. H. Troy
er, of the Duluth police department,
will ship within few days box Of
relics of crimes committed in this city
for exhibition at the st. Louis worlds
fair. A committee from the CONNER
cial club looked over the display today
and decided that it was proper that it
should be shown to the worlds fair
crowds.
Two of the proposed articles to be
put on display were responsible for the
agitation against police exhibit. One
is triangular piece Of a mans skull,
through which the blade of a penknife,
which caused death, still protrudes,
and the other is human ear, which
was bitten off in a Bowery battle be-
tween two Films. The contention was
raised that such a display would give
rise to the belief that Duluth was peo-
pied chiefly by savages and that it was
an unsafe place to visit.
Both of the relics are highly priced
by the police department, in that they
represent hard effort on the part of To-
cal officers in landing the criminals.
Aside from these there will be some
crude tools, manufactured by prison
ers, with which they attempted to es-
cane

GIVES THE JUDGE A
BLACK CHARACTER
House Committee FIagellates
Swayne of Florida
UnmercifuIly.

WASHINGTON, D. c., March 25.-
"Resolved, That Charles Swayne, judge
of the district court of the United
States in and for the Northern district
of Florida, be impeached Of high mis-
demeanor."
This is the recommendation of the
house committee on the judiciary to the
house, in the report of the committee
filed today by Representative Palmer,
of Pennsylvania, chairman of the sub
committee which investigated the case.
The report says:
Upon the whole case it is plain that
Judge Swayne has forfeited the respect
and confidence of the bar of his court and
of the people of his district who do busi-
ness there. He has SO conducted himself
as to earn the reputation of being sus-.
ceptible to the malign influence of a man
of notoriously bad character. He has
shown himself to be harsh, tyrannical
and oppressive, unmindful Of the common
rule of a just and upright judge. He has
continuously and persistently violated the
plain words of statute of the United
States and subjected himself to punish
ment for the commission of a high mis-
demeanor.
He has fined and imprisoned members
OF his par for a constructive contempt
without the authority of law and with
out a decent show of reason, either
through inexcusable ignorance, a malicious
intent to injure, or a wanton disposition
to exercise arbitrary power. He has con-
demned to a term of Imprisonment in the
county Jail reputable citizen of Florida
over whom he had no jurisdiction who
was guilty of no thought of contempt of
his court, for no offense against him or in
the presence of the court, or in obstruc
tion of any order, rule, command or de-
cree, and after the accused had purged
himself on oath.
For all these reasons Charles Swayne
has been guilty of misbehavior in his
office of judge and grossly violated the
conditions upon which he holds this hon
orable appointment The honor of the
judiciary, the orderly and decent admin
istration of public Justice and the well
fare of the people Of the United States
demand his impeachment and removal
from the high place which his conduct
has degraded.
From the testimony your committee
finds that Judge Swayne has never ac-
quired legal residence in the Northern

HILL SPEAKS FOR
GRAIN GROWERS
Great Northern President Adj
vocates Deep Water I'M
provements at Buffalo.

WASHINGTON, D. c., March 25.-
Deep water Improvements for the Buff
falo IN. Y.) harbor were urged before
the house committee on rivers and
harbors, by delegation composed of
James j. Hill, president of the Great
Northern Railway company; j. G. Mil
burn, president of the Pan-American
Exposition company; Jehn Gunneen, at
torney general of New York state; Jo-
seph Sawyer, and Capt. J. N. Brown,
of Buffalo. and several others. :.
Mr. Hill told the committee that
grain vessels at Buffalo had to wait
sometimes four, five and six days for
sufficient depth Of water to dock at the
elevators He remarked incidentally
that this increased cost did not come
out of the carriers, but out of the
Western grain growers.
The committee wanted to know II
Mr.. Hill did not consider costly water
transportation a good thing for his
railways. His, reply was that he was
interested in both railway and water
transportation. He said:
If YOU will provide me with a railway
between New York and Buffalo for the
exclusive transportation OF freight Will
make the proposed barge canal look ike
a lily pond.
AS an evidence of low transporta-
tion rates, Mr.. Hill said he was trans
porting flour from Minneapolis to ia
pan at the rate of ten barrels of flour
ten miles for cent.
The improvement asked for at Buff
falo is regarded as having been au-
thorized by previous appropriation
of SSS0,O0O. The total cost for its
completion is estimated at $4,50O,000.

FORT LEAVENWORTH, Kan,
March 2.-PriVate John Warnke, Com
pany G, Sixth infantry, was drowned in
the natatorium today after strangling
upon chew of tobacco which lodged
in his throat. When the body was
found the face had turned black
Warnke was showing some of the
others how to dive properly. He dived
into eight feet of water, and, not re-
appearing, the others became alarmed
and some of the men dived in to res
cue him. He was brought to the sur
face, but died before the surgeon ar
rived. An investigation showed that
a big cud of tobacco had lodged in
Warnke's throat, causing strangulation.
Warnke was a Minnesotan, and his
father, at Porto, Mimi, was immedi-
ately notified of his sons death, but
nothing has been heard from him. I'm
less word comes, Warnke will be buried
in the National cemetery at this point.
He was twenty-five years old and a
favorite with his officers and fellow
soldiers:

passenger agent which he has since re-
tanned.
"I shall greatly regret to leave the
Northern Pacific, with which ] have been
connected so long," said Mr.. Fee, "but the
offer of the Southern Pacific, together
with the prospect of a change in climate,
which will be of benefit to my family,
was such that I could not refuse. I will
leave about the middle of next week, but
do not expect to have my family follow
me before about two months. +"
Considerable speculation as to Mr.. Fees
successor has been current since the re-
cent announcement that he was to leave,
but Second Vice President J. M. Hanna
ford, who will make the selection, said
before his departure on an inspection tour
with President Elliott, that he had not
yet reached a decision. He said that no
announcement would be made till the re-
turn of the party, which is expected with
in two weeks.
A. M. Cleland, assistant general passen-
ger agent, will act as head of the pas
senger department when Mr.. Fee leaves.
The following Associated Press dispatch
confirms previous reports:
SAN FRANCISCO, Cal, March 25.-
General Manager Kruttsehnitt, J. G.
StubbS, e. 0. Mccormick and William
Sproule, of the Southern Pacific, are now
in this city, the latter three having ar
rived today from Los Angeles. Regard
ing reported changes among the officials
of the road, Traffic Manager Stubbs said:
"They have all been announced official
ly. Mr.. Mccormick is going East with me
and Mr.. Fee is coming here. Mr.. Sproule
will remain in this city. Rumors of other
changes are without foundation"
Mr.. Mccormick will leave here about
April 1, to undertake his new duties in
Chicago. His appointment dates from that
time, and Mr.. Fee will take charge of
the passenger traffic at the same time in
this city.
General Manager Kruttschnitt would
neither deny nor affirm the reported
changes to be made by him. 1t is reported
that there is to be no removals or trans
fers save those occasioned by the success

ICE PASSES OUT OF
THE LAO RIVER
Russians ReguIate Navigation in a
Way Merchants Dislike.

NEW -CHWANG, March 25.-The
Lao river became navigable today and
shipping agents have received notice
of the departure of vessels from ports
along the entire coast of China for
New -chwang.
The Russian military authorities
have issued an order regulating ship
ping at this port. The order provides
that all incoming vessels must anchor
FIVE and one half miles below the fort
and can proceed into the harbor only
between the hours Of 6 q. m and p.
M. after undergoing an examination OF
papers and cargo.
The merchants here are protesting
against the order In the hope that
ships will be permitted to anchor with
in two miles of the foreign settlement
before submitting to an examination by
the authorities. Although further COM
promising the right of neutrals, the
surveillance Of all ships passing by the
Notifications is considered by the au-
thorities to be a necessary military
precautfon.
The Russian official reports of the
bombardment of Port Arthur by the
Japanese fleet last Tuesday are sub
stantially confirmed by a refugee from
Port Arthur, who reports that the RUS
sian gunners prof1ted by the Japanese
initiative and returned their fire over
the Iiatoshin promontory. The refugee
states that more stringent restrictions
on the merchants Of Port Arthur are
now exercised, rendering entrance to
and exit from the city almost impos-
sible. Military and civil passes are
no longer accepted.

Charles S. Fee, who has been general
passenger agent of the Northern Pacific
during the past twenty one years, will
leave st. Paul next week for San Fran
cisco, where he will assume his new du-
ties as passenger traffic manager of the
Southern Pacific, succeeding E. O.. Nc
Cormick, who has been made assistant
traffic director of the Hartman lines.
While it has been generally understood
that Mr. Fee was to leave the Northern
Pacific, he has persistently refused to
either admit or deny that he had been
appointed to the post on the Hartman
system, but when shown a report of a
statement by J. c. Stubs last night he
acknowledged that he was to sever his
st. Paul connections and that he would
leave for San Francisco next week.
The departure of Mr.. Fee from st. Paul,
where he has resided so long and where
he is so well known, will be universally
regretted not only in railway circles but
among his many friends throughout the
city. Mr.. Fee has been connected with
the Northern Pacific continuously for
twenty-siX years, and has been general
passenger agent twenty-one years. The
country tributary to the Northern Pa
cific's lines has grown up during Mr..
Fees administration of its passenger traf-
fic, and he and his associates have been
closely identified with the development of
the Northwest
Mr.. Fee began his railroad career with
the Michigan Central in 1873 at Chicago
as a clerk in the Office of H. E. Sargent,
general superintendent of that road. Later
he entered the employ of the Hannibal &
St Joe, now a part Of the Burlington
system. He came to st. Paul when H.
E. Sargent was appointed general mana
ger of the Northern Pacific. He remained
in the operating department five years
when he was transferred to the traffic de-
