slMPLIFlEs THE SITUATION.
Colorado Legislature Cannot Declare
Governorship Vacant.

Colorado Legislature Cannot Declare
Governorship Vacant.
Denver March 15.-The supreme
court decision that the legislature can
not legally declare a vacancy in the
Office of governor has simplified the
situation by eliminating the PROPOSE
tton to seat Lieutenant Governor Jesse
r. McDonald as governor. There is
now before the joint convention of the
general assembly a clear cut issue be-
tween Governor Alya Adams and
James F. Peabody, contestor.
At least one-third of the sixty-six
Republican members of the general
assembly have refused to be bound by
any action on the question in caucus.
Should forty-nine Of those now fall in
line for Peabody he would have a
majority of the joint convention, which
consists of ninety members, and
would be declared elected. On the
other hand Governor Ada IS requires
the votes of eighteen Re lblicans in
addition to the thirty.,9ne Democratic
votes to give him a najo.,y on joint
ballot. However, if eight zen Repub-
licans refuse to vote for either the
Peabody or.the Adams rep It from the
contest committee neither Of the con-
testants will have a majority and Gov
ernor Adams will continue in Office.

DEBATE ON CONVENTION RESUMED

Washington, March 15.-When the
santo Domingo treaty was taken up
in executive session of the senate SEN
ator Teller again made a plea for an
open session for the discussion of law
POINTS which, he said, were involved
in the treaty. He said that it was de-
slrable on matters of this character
TO get the views of the country and
make the people understand just what
was proposed to be done under the
treaty.
The senate committee on foreign re-
lations was complimented by Senator
Teller for the efforts it had made to
satisfactorily amend the treaty and he
declared that the convention, with
perhaps one or two additional amend
ments, had been put in the best pos
sible condition. But he said, .'it is
Impossible to amend the treaty so that
it will satisfy me. am opposed to it
for fundamental and basic reasons. !"
He declared that the policy to be en-
barked upon under the treaty was
contrary to our form Of government
and dangerous precedent to estab-
lish
Foraker Makes Objection.
Objection was made by Senator For
aker to opening the doors.
After this question had been dis
posed of for the second time during
the debate on the treaty Senator Nor
gan took the floor and discussed the
Dominican debt for the purpose of
showing that it was largely made up
of fraudulent claims He talked also
of the revenues of the government and
used as a basis the data which he re-
Gently presented to the senate and
which was printed as a senate docu-
ment.
In the debate which followed several
Democratic senators declared that it
would be advisable to have the doors
opened and finally roll call was de-
termined upon to settle this question
permanently. It resulted in a decision
to continue the consideration of the
treaty in executive session The vote
was 81 to 10.

ALL TAKEN OUT SAFELY.
Panic Of Employees During a Fire at
Chicago.

Chicago, March 15.-A fire which
broke out during the day in the print
ing and box department of the Grand
Crossing Tack company's plant caused
a loss OF about 100000. After the
printing and box department, three
story brick building, had been de-
stroyed the fremen thought the fire
would not spread further, but upon the
collapse of the walls and roof Of the
box and printing department the fire
spread quickly to two adjoining por-
tions Of the big plant. These sections,
containing valuable machinery, were
practically destroyed.
The entire plant, valued at $1,000,-
=0G0, employed 500 persons, many Of
them women and children. At the
first sound Of fire" there was a panic
among those working on upper floors.
but all were taken out in safety.

AGAINST PUBLIC POLICY.

Matrimonial Agencies Knocked Out by
Iowa Supreme Court.
Des Moines, March 15.-Matrimonial
agencies were given their quietus SO
far as this state is concerned by a
decision Of the Iowa supreme court,
which declared that contracts designed
to promote marriage for a money. CON

and void.
The issue arose in the suit of Mrs
Mary Aldinger against the estate of
the late William Grobe of Hardin coun-
ty. She claimed 5000 compensation
Tor services rendered Grobe in going
to Chicago to secure information con-
cerning a woman whom he contem-

russian Foreign once adopts Firm
Attitude in the Matter.
ST. Petersburg, March 15.-The for
eign office adopts a Very firm attitude
regarding the peace rum ors, categor.
ically insisting that Russia has not the
slightest idea of peace. There is moth.
ing coatlrmatcgy OF tha. reports to the
effect that JaLan intends to make a
formal proposition to enter into peace
negotiations Within a week and they
are received with great skepticis:n.
An official of the foreign Office with
whom the correspondent of the AssG-
ciated Press talked expressed great
doubt whether Japan could offer a
basis for negotiations Acceptable to
Russia. Nevertheless diplomatic cir.
cles believe that the. ice once broken
the belhgerents will find a way with
out Intermediates to conclude peace.
Until Field Marshal Oyanla has ex-
hausted his last effort to secure the
fruits OF his Mulsden victory it is
pointed out that japan will not move,
as naturally any PROPOSAL emanatin5
from either side Would be accompanied
by an agreement forsan arnistice.

All the employees Of the lnterborough
