ecutive and judicial appropriation bill,

o., and Bartlett (Dem., Ga.), while

Aobert J. Wynne Signed Official Pa
pers Without Examining Them.

Washington, Jan. 14.-Robert J.
Wynne, first assistant postmaster gen.
eral. was the principal figure in the
postal trial Wednesday and when court
adjourned until Friday he was still
on the stand. Mr.. Wynne's testimony
occupied most of tha day and he was
subjected to a rigid cross-examination
by Charles A. Douglass, counsel for
the defense, during which the opposing
attorneys had several tilts necessitat-
ing a word of admonition from Justice
Pritchard that they must conduct the
case in peace. The first assistant post
master general was piled with ques-
tions designed to test his knowledge
Of the duties of the office. The wit
ness frankly stated that he had often
signed papers prepared in MacAen's
division without examining into their
contents because they came to him in
official form and because Of the fact
that he regarded Machen as one of
the most expert men in the service
and relied on him.
John H. Howley, Mr.. Wynne's chief
clerk, occupied the stand for a brief
time, the principal part Of his testi-
mony relating to the fact that he sug-
gested to his superior officer Of ex-
aiming into the legality Of Machen's
initials and signature placed on let
tiers and acquisitions by Machen's
subordinates.

DEBATE is SPIRITED.
Panama Recognition Again Discussed
in the Senate.

pandma Again 0lSCuSSSo
in the Senate.
Washington, Jan. 14.-Panama rec
ognition was the principal subject Of
contention in the senate Wednesday
and as on Tuesday the debate was
spirited. Mr.. Carmack opened the pro-
ceedings with a set speech in pointed
criticism of the presidents course and
was followed by Mr.. Spooner, the only
other speaker of the day, in defense of
the presidents action as law abiding
and in defense of the president him
self as a patriotic, brave and true
man."
Mr.. Tillman frequently interrupted
Mr.. Spooner and there were a number
Of sharp encounters between them.
When the senate adjourned the Pana-
ma question was still before the SEN
ate and it was announced that the dis
cussion would be resumed today after
the disposition of the p%ostofice depart
ment inquiry resolutions.
Before the Panama subject was
taken up there was a short but lively
discussion between Messrs. Patterson
and Scott on the labor troubles in
Colorado.

lNDIANA's RAGING TADs.

Social Clubs Last

Bottle Of Port to BE Opened by n
Social Clubs Last Member.
A young mar OF Covington, Ind, in
1S47 read in a Cincinnati newspaper of
q social club which had been formed
years before that date. The last sur
viving member of the club had broken
the bottle of whisky that had been on
the banquet table at every anniversary
Of the first meeting.
The incident impressed the reader,
and he formed a similar club in Gov
ington. The membership was twenty,
and the club was called the Raging
lads. The members were Burnett D..
Van Trooner. Albert Mallory, Shell Han
negan. James McMannoney. Lewis r.
Hetield, Charles Hansicker, Samuel
Fields. Sanford Crane. William Brad
ley. William Donaldson, William Prib-
BILE. Edward Mallory. Sidney Harper,
Ed Pullen. Alexander Hetfeld. Elias
| Wilcox. Frank Clark. Harvey Johnson,
Rufus Pribble and Bob Brown.
Instead Of whisky Il bottle of port
wine was put on the table. n this
was to be broken by the last member.
On Thanksgiving was the ffty-sfxth
anniversary dinner of the Raging Tads.
Two of the four survivors met at Gov
ington, with the bottle between them.
Colonel McMannoney. who will be
eighty years old in March. and Lewis
Hetfeld. who is now eighty years old.
were the partakers of the feast. Bob
Brown. eighty-three years old. lives in
Nebraska. and Harvey johnson. of the
same age, in Illinois. They were un.
able to attend.
The Covington men are hale and
hearty, but were much affected by the
smallness of their numbers. They shed
tears as they spoke of their former
companions. Mr.. Hetield said:
II don't want to be the last. 1t will
be a sad, a very sad, occasion. the
opening Of that old bottle"
II wouldn't open that bottle for any
thing in the world" said Colonel Nc
Mannoney.
The bottle is cared for as If it were
Of priceless value. From n Thanks
giving to the next it is stored in the
vault Of the Covington Banking COM
pany, where it will not have to remain
many years before it's seal is broken by
the last of the Raging Tads.

sion at Minneapolis.
Minneapolis, Jan. 14.-James ]. Hill
told the agriculturists present at the
meeting of the State Agricultural So
ciety in Masonic Temple here yester-
day afternoon that what the farmer
most needed was an expansion of his
market in order that his surplus prod
uct might sell to the best advantage.
He dealt with the subject in a very
broad way, going intimately into the
relation of agriculture to transporta-
tion and pointing to the Orient as a
certain market for the absorption of
the products of this country.
Mr.. Hills address came as the cul-
mination of a day devoted to speech
making. There were many more peo-
pie in the hall than at any Of the pre-
vious sessions. and the audience gave
the deepest attention to the address.
At the opening session A. J.. Love

Husbandry," being followed by ]. H.
Brigham, assistant secretary of agri-
culture.
l.. H. Kerrick Of Bloomington, ILL.,,
