LIE IS PASSED
IN THE HOUSE
HEPBURN GOES AFTER COOPER
OF WISCONSIN
Williams Of Mississippi In Turn Calls
His Iowa Colleague to Order and
Uproar Ensues over
colIoquy
sy Associated Press.

WASHINGTON, May 25.--1n the
house in the railroad rate bill discus
sion, the previous question having been
ordered on the rule, yeas 152 nays SO,
present is. Mr.. Dalzell of Pennsylvania
explained that the resolution was sim
ply for the purpose of sending the rail-
road bill to conference.
Mr.. Cooper Of Wisconsin wanted to
Know what objection there was to the
house passing on the amendments now.
He said:
LET us vote on the express company
amendment" applause on both sldes)
Mr.. Dalzell replied that the house
could easily concur in the conference
report and instruct the conferees as TO
the wishes Of the house.
Then Mr. Cooper, in an impressive
manner, said that he had been informed
by a gentleman in whose integrity he
had the fullest confidence that some
gentlemen-he would not say whether
they were members of the house or
senate, but they were entitled to be
conferees on the bill-had agreed that
the express company amendment
should go out of the bill.
Hepburn Demands Names
"will you state the names of the per-
sons who have thus declared them
selves?" called out Mr. Hepburn.
Mr.. Cooper: "Oh, 1 don't want to
offend, especially the gentleman from
Iowa"
Mr.. Hepburn. "Oh, you can't offend
me by answering that question"
Mr.. Cooper: "I will say this, that
they were two gentlemen in whose word
have confidence
Mr.. Hepburn Qoudly): Name them,
name them"
Mr.. Cooper: II am not going to name
men who come to me and tell me mat
ters in confidence. The gentleman from
Iowa places me in an embarrassing po-
sition, but since he asks me I will say
that he Is said to have remarked in
conversation: oh, the express COM
pany amendment will go out
Mr.. Hepburn, greatly wrought up and
exceedingly nervous, replied:
"Any man who told the gentleman
that (shaking his fist at Mr.. Cooper
told a falsehood, and until the gentle
man from Wisconsin names the indi-
vidual who made this statement to him
/ shall hold that the gentleman is
drawing upon his imagination"
Williams Interferes
Mr.. Williams: 81 call the gentleman
from Iowa to order for his language"
Mr.. Hepburn: 81 withdraw the
language which is offensive to the gen.
tleman from Mississippi"
Mr.. Williams: cit was not offensive
to me. 1t was offensive to the house
and contrary to the rules"
Intense excitement prevailed during
this exchange of words. When he could
he heard above the uproar Mr.. Cooper
said that he was not the only gentle
man to whom similar statements were
made Responding to another request
for the names, Mr.. Cooper said to Mr..
Hepburn:
"You placed me in an embarrassing
position and had to tell you what was
told to me. And 1 told you the truth
and that is the first time that any man
on earth has accused me of telling a
falsehood. The statement was made to
me in confidence, and concerning the
gentleman from Iowa, and 1 therefore
cannot give the names"
This closed the colloquy.

OFFICIAL. VOTE NOT YET KNOWN.
A Few Interesting Political Paragraphs
From The Arkansas Gazette.

While 40 announcement of the
official vote in the Democratic
primary on March % for United
States sea ator has been made by
Secretary John H. Page, some Of
the counties failing to send in re-
ports as yet, it is known that the
complete figures show approx
mately $4,000 majority for Gov
ernor Da lis owe: Senator Berry.
Subject e perhaps a few minor
corrections, the margin for Gov
ernor Dari5 is placed at IA, ,119.
The vote n all the counties of the
state is Known, but the failure Of
some couHties to send official ab-
stracts to the state capital has de-
layed formal and official an
nouncement Of the final figures.
According to the claims Of Da-
Wis adherentS, if the popular vote
of the state in the primary did
not determine the contest, and
the result were gauged by the
vote of the counties and the sena'
torial districts sep arately, Davis
would have 81 and Berry AZ votes
in the legislature. There are 35
senators and 100 representatives,
and a majority on joint ballot is
68, which is the number neces-
sary to elect a United States
senator. This estimate is inde-
pendent OF the personal prefer
ences of the legislative nominees.
1t is said by many who have
made inquiry that a majority OF
the Legislative nominees were not
for Davis in the recent primary.
The Davis men claim that they
captured the state convention
when the county delegations were
elected recently. according to
their fg he Davis vote in
the convention will be 351, leav-
ing only 16l for Berry. The
number necessary is 257, being a
majority.
The Davis estimates and claims,
however, are based upon the as
sumption chat the pro-Davis del
ecations from the half-dozen con-
testing counties will be seated.
Control Of the state convention,
which opens at Hot Springs on
June 5, means much. The per-
sonnel of the state organization
for the next two years will be
designated by the convention,
and the plans for the primary OF
1908, at which the contest for
Senator Clarke's toga will be de-
termined, will be mapped out.
