BLOOD STREAMED
FROM SOLON'S NOSE
THE DIGNITY OF THE HOUSE
WAS OUTRAGED BY A FIST FIGHT
OF MEMBERS.

Franklin of Washington, Naples OF
Mitchell and DOOrkeeper Naples,
SON of MitcheII's Representative,
Were the Belligerents-The Elder
Naples Fist Brought the Blood
from FrankIin's NOse-COmmittee
Will Investigate the Fight.
Atlanta, Aug 9.-The session of the
House was enlivened to-day by a gen
uine fisticuff, in which the participants
were Hon. H. NJ. Franklin of Wash
ington and Doorkeeper Albert Naples
and his father, Hon. 1. Naples of
Mitchell. AS the result of the fracas,
Mr.. Franklin's nose bled copiously,
while the other belligerents came out
of it apparently without mark.
The trouble came about in this way:
The House was in the midst of vote
on the bill to increase the judges sal
aries. and as it was an important
measure, Speaker Morris had instruct
ed the doorkeepers not to let any mem
Der leave the hall until the vote had
been completed. 1t seems Franklin
went to the door on the right and
started to go out into the room ad-
joining the Speakers room, where
members frequently congregate to
smoke. Doorkeeper Naples refused to
let him go out.
Father Took n Hand.
There was dispute about the mat
ter, which led to blows, and the fight
had gained considerable headway when
Representative Naples OF Mitchell,
father of the young doorkeeper, rush
ed up and struck Mr.. Franklin heavy
blow in the face, causing his nose to
bleed freely.
Mr.. Franklin sought to strike back.
but by that time some twenty mem
bers of the House, who were sitting
near by rushed into the breach and
soon separated the belligerents.
Speaker Morris was all the while
rapping for order, and as soon as it
had been restored, the Speaker, with
out prejudice to his part in the mat
ter, suspended Doorkeeper Naples un-
til the matter could be investigated.
Mr.. Evans of Washington stated that
his colleague, in the event it was con-
sidered he had violated the dignity of
the House, said he was ready TO make
public apology. Later, a resolution
was adopted. providing for the APP
pointment Of a special committee of
five, calm and collected" members
to investigate the affair and report
what action the House should take in
the matter.
Says the other Hit First.
Both Mr.. Franklin and young
Naples claim the other struck the first
blow. Mr.. Naples said he only went
to the aid of his son. who was attack
ed by a larger and older man, and he
wished he had struck him a still hard
er blow.
At the afternoon session, Speaker
Morris appointed the following COM
mittee to investigate the matter:
Messrs. Mulherin of Richmond, chair
man, StovaIl of Chatham, Knowles of
Floyd, Hixen of Sumter and Fielder
of Bibb. The committee was called
together later in the afternoon for
the purpose of organization and the
usual preliminaries.

TURKISH SITUATION
Was Discussed at the Meeting OF

Washington. Aug. s.-Secretary Hay
occupied considerable time at the cabi-
net meeting to-day in q presentation
of the latest phases of the Turkish
situation. He explained the reasons
which had actuated him in requesting
that the American European squadron
should be sent to Smyrna. 1t is not
deemed wise by the Secretary that the
reasons for this action should be dis
closed entirely at this time.
Fresh negotiations with the Porte
have beeen instituted and in the event
of their failure, it may be that Minis
ter Leishman will leave his post and
go aboard the American flagship, thus
creating a situation of some serious
ness.

Sinmintun is the northern terminus
of the Shanhaikwan Railway. From
Koupangtse, about seventy miles
southwest of Sinmintun, a branch line
connects with Yinkow. which is about
fifty-three miles southeast of Kou-

A Russian correspondent of the AS

was believed that the Shankaikwan
Railway was then under control of the
japanese, with the consent of China.
AS early as March 20 last, the Shan
haikwan correspondent of the London
Daily Mail asserted that the Chinese
had received official authorization to
turn over the plant of the railway to
the Japanese. The Japanese are in
control of the Gulf of Liao Tung, and

from MukdeH prove to be correct it
