DANES HAVE CRISIS
Ministers Resign in Quarrel
Over Military Situation

COPENHAGEN, Jan. Elm addition
to War Minister Madsen, who recently
resigned the ministers of public wor-
ship, interior, agriculture and justice
have now resigned.
The crisis is consequent on strong
disagreement of ministers over the
military situation. When Mr.. Madsen
rendered his resignation other minis
ters demanded the resignation of the
minister of the navy, who refused.
The other ministers then resigned.
The majority in the folkething support
the retiring ministers. If Premier
Deuntzer should be unable to reform
the cabinet, it is expected that the
king will request the retiring minister
of justice or minister of instruction to
organize a new cabinet.

CRUM is SURELY in.
Senate Finally Confirms Me-
gro's Nomination

WASHINGTON d. c., Jan. e.-The
nomination of w D. Crum, negro, to
be collector Of customs for the port of
Charleston, s. c., was confirmed by the
senate today by vote of 33 to II.
Crum had been nominated by the pres
ident three times and in addition had
received three recess appointments. He
is now serving under the last of these
recess appointments. Confirmation
was opposed by Senator Tillman, who
objected to the appointment of negro.
The race issue played a very insig-
nificant part in the debate, which was
participated in by fully a dozen sena-
tors. When Crum receives his COM
mission he will be entitled to receive
the salary which has accumulated
since his first appointment.

DENVER, Col. Jan. 6.-Behind lock-
ed doors and amid scenes of great con-
fusion and excitement, the legislature
today passed a resolution creating a
committee of fifteen to canvass the
vote for governor and submit a final
report to the legislature not later than
2 D. m. Monday. The committee is
composed of five senators and ten rep
entatives-twelve Republicans and
three Democrats. 1t organized this aft
ernoon by the election of Senator Ar
thur Corn, of Colorado Springs, as
chairman, and will commence the TAX
ing of evidence tomorrow.
The trouble began at the first session
of the joint legislature and lasted until
its close. 1t was understood there would
be a conflict over the respective rights
of Speaker Dickson and Lieut.. Gov.
Haggott to preside over the joint ses-
sion.5 The speaker based his opinion of
his right to preside upon a section of
the state constitution, which says that
Immediately upon the organization Of
the house the speaker shall open and
publish the election returns in the pres
ence of majority of both houses.
Lieut.. Gov. Haggott construed his right
to direct the proceedings upon a stat
ute which declares that in conducting
any contested election the general as-I
sembiy shall convene ia joint session
and that the president of the. senate
shall preside unless he is the contested.
Legal advice was given to each gentle.
man that his position was correct.
Glare at Each Other
When the lieutenant governor
mounted the rostrum, Speaker Dickson
was standing in front of the center of
his desk and did not move. The lieu
tenant governor advanced, the two men
smiled bowed, shook hands and then
stood gazing into each others eyes.
Their features hardened as they realiz-
ed the situation Together they turned
to face the assembly. Gently edging up
to the speaker, Lieut.. Gov. Haggott
gave him gentle "hunch' with his ell
bow as if to move him along. The
speaker was immovable. The gentle
hunch" was repeated and still the
speaker held his ground and brought
down his gavel with thump.
