The Waterman of Dec. Is, 1905, says:
"Tennyson Smith, the lenouned Eng

mate successor of John B. Cough, has
been holding striking meetings in AS

He is wonderful orator, persuader

sheppard Seeks for the Facts.

The views of number of members
os the House of Representatives. on the
White House incident of last Thurs
day, when Mrs. Minor Morris of this
city was thrown out of the executive
offices and sent to the house of deten-
ton are embodied in resolution intro
duced in the House today by Represen-
tative Morris Sheppard of Texas. The
resolution provides for the appointment
of a bipartisan committee to investi-
gate the White House occurrence and
report to the House.
The resolution has gone to the COM
mittee on rules and as, 1t calls for an
Investigation, it is privileged. If it is
not heard from in the course of week
Representative Sheppard has the right
under the rules, to move in the open
House that the committee be relieved
of further consideration of the resou-
ton. Consequently, in some way or
other, the resolution is bound to come
up in the Douse. 1t is considered quite
probable that the rules committee will
report it with motion that it lie on
the table.
Representative Sheppard (Texas) in
troduced the following resolution in
the House today;
"Resolved by the House of Represen-
tatives, that committee of republican
| nd 10 ln, @f l,n
be appointed by the speaker to investi-
gate the recent violent expulsion of an
American mother from the White
House Offices and grounds by executive
officials and employees while she was
seeking an audience with the president
of the United States. that said commit
tee have power to summon witnesses
and report as soon as possible to the
| House."
Mr.. Sheppard made the following
statement concerning the resolution:
II introduce this resolution in the
name of American motherhood and
American womanhood. The occurrence
which is the cause of this resolution
was violation of every sentiment that
glorifies American womanhood and
American chivalry, The brutal treat
ment of this lady, who was but acting
within her rights, seems to me to be
outrageous and indefensible. The Amer.
lean congress ought not to permit the
matter to rest without the most thor.
ough and searching investigation. II
involves the most sacred element o.
American life, the ressect and rever
ence which every true American either
accords the American woman and espe
cially the American mother. When thu
president of the United States, with al
the glamor of his great Office, steps into
the presence of an American mother
he is in the presence of his superior
This action of his subordinates should
certainly be investigated"
