6uddhlsts EAGER to Redeem the Spot
from Hindu Occupation.

buduhists EAGER 70 Hedeem the spot
from Hindu Occupation. .
We lived for two weeks at the Oak
Bangla, at Gaya, driving the seven
miles to Buddh Gaya each morning
and returning at night since the small
Burmese rest-house beside the temple
could not shelter our whole party;
Although nothing at this most sacred
spot Is as 1t was in the lifetime of the
Buddha, yet the whole neighborhood
Is so Unidentified with the incidents OF
his years of penance and meditation,
with the season of the Great Enlight-
eminent and his long teachings, that
we believers in the great faith are
overpowered with emotion in this holy
place. Under just such another green
and glittering Bo-tree. our great re-
hgion had its beginning, and from this
very spot It has spread over and
irradiated the world, teaching an
equality, fberaffty and federation
worthy of this latest and most en-
lightened century, and once redeeming
all India from its degrading snperst-
tions and gross religion.
II Is the dream of all Buddhists
again to convert India to the true
faith, and redeem this sacred Buddh
Gaya from It's present occupation by
the Hindu Shivaties, and restore it as
the chief temple of Buddhism for all
the world. a shrine for believers Of
all races and sects. When we had at
last reached this most sacred spot
and stood beneath the Bo-tree, the liv-
Ing symbol. we were deeply moved,
and all that had taken place there
the attacks of Mara, Buddha's perse-
verance and enlightenment-became
vivid and real to US. We were car.
rfed back the thousands OF years, and
saw the five disciples gathered there
following their master as he turned
from the place OF his severe penance,
self-torture, modification, and final
triumph of enlightenment, to go forth
and preach to all the world universal
equality and the brotherhood Of man.
kind. And then, alas, to our deep
sorrow, we had to realize that this
holy place. the birthplace Of our great
religion, is lost to us, is desecrated
and possessed by Hindus. We could
only console ourselves by the fact that
India, being now under enlightened
British rule, we Buddhists may now
worship there without molestation,
free from Mohammedan and Brahman
persecution, which, with the corrup
ton of Ja:nism within our sect,
brought about the downfall and extinc
ton OF eur faith io India.--Century.

LONLoN, May 26-The King is

At the Conclusion he Was Advised by Bailey
 to Change Parties
In the Midst of the Colorado Senator's Denuncation of the Caucus He Was Confronted by His Own Record of Three Years Ago.

Washington. Feb. To-day for the first time in many years the senate chamber was made tle scene of an eff fort to administer party discipline to a member of that body, and the occur ence was one of so many dramatic de- tails that the many witnesses will not soon forget it. Mir. Patterson was the subject of the effort, and MT. Bailey, to whom, in the absence of MT. Cor man. the democratic leadership is con- ceded. was the instrument of his party in the incident.
 The proceeding arose in connection with the consideration of MT. Patter- sons resolution of remonstrance against caucus action on treaties with foreign nations. Tle Colorado senator today called up his resolution imme- diately after the conclusion of the rou- tine morning business and addressed the senate upon it.
 The facts concerning the caucus pro- ceedings of Saturday and his with drawal from the caucus were fresh in the minds of the senators. MT. Patter- sons speech was in the main an eIab- oration of his resolutions and he con tended stoutly for the right of a sena- tor to follow the dictates of his con science rather .han the demands of his party in all matters regarding which the two may be in conflict. It was not until after he had concluded that the proceedings took on an air of intensity and excitement

WITTFS IDEA
 OF HAPPINESS
Expressed to a Delegation
 of DiSCORtented
He Thanks God That Russia is Not Situated as Other Countries Are.

St Petersburg, Feb. "A delegation of citizens of Elaterinosdar Caucasia. sent to St. Petersburg to obtain the emperor's personal assurance that the land question would not be settled by the present government but by the na- tionaI assembly, was received Tn audi ence by Premier Witte yesterday. An interesting account of the interview was published today The premier pointed out that the agrarian problem could not be solved by a division of the state lands alone, amounting only to 16,00O.000 acres, much Of which is forest lands on the easy installment plan as provided by the imperial ukase of November last. The spokesman of the delegation replied that the pea sants did not wish to buy land but were determined to receive it as a gift from the government.
 At the close of an informal discus sion, the premier thanked heaven that the conditions in Russia were differ ent from those prevailing in other countries. He said, according to the published report. that a French presi- dent was dependent on the electors and an English king on Jewish bankers, but the Russian emperor was independ- ent. The consUmmation desired by the revolutionists that the country be ruI- ed by Poles, Armenians and Jews would not be realized.
 The premier is said to have added: The greatness and happiness of Russia are due to the emperor. Without the emperor you who now wear long coats and high hats would still be peasants"
 The premier is reported to have re- marked in conclusion: If only it had not been for this unhappy war, if only victory should be on our side, all would now be well, but God did not so will it,"
 At the conclusion of the conference. the premier promised the delegation that they would be received in audience by the emperor. He gave the same pledge to a deputation of Buriats Ca Mongolian people chiefly in the gov ernment of Ernkutsk and trans -Bai- kal territory who arrived here to de- nard special representation in the na
 ional assembly and permission to live in their old condition of nomadism.

PittsbUrg. Feb. 7.-National Vice President T. l.. Lewis said to repre- sentative of the Associated Press that he had received instructions from Pres ident Mitchell how to deal with the controversy between the miners in dis trict No. ,, but had sent for further and clearer statements. He would not make them public until they were be- fore the convention.
 Delegates of district No in another day of their convention failed to arrive at any definite action upon a method to oust President Dolan and Vice Pres ident Beliingham and made an attempt to bolt the convention and elect other officers
 The latter move was illustrated by National Vice President Lewis. wno arrived here this morning Mr. Lewis was dispatched here by President Mitchell upon receipt of appeals by telegraph from some of the delegates to the local convention. The conven- tiOn adjOurnd until tomorrow.

in doing sO they antagonizc their party and should hold themselves responsible to their party, but the speech was more notable for its arraignment of Mr. Pat terson for his course than for it's ad- herence to any line of argument.
 MT. Bailey charged the senator from Colorado wi,h having been a party to the adoption in a previous caucus of the rule binding democratic sen ators to the two-thirds rule This charge and Mr Patter- sons response to it constituted a most dramatic incident, and feeling throughout the chamber was very tense until the climax was passed.
 Mir. Patterson failed to recall the proceedings of the previous caucus but MT. BaiIeys colleague. MT CuIberson. was prepared with copy of these pro- cecdings. and when he had presented it to MT. Patterson said that he would not undertake to dispute the record. He was inclined at first to charge compIicity to disparage him before his colleagues in the senate, but after ward said that he was as much con- cerned over this apparent inconsistent cy on his own part, as he was over the effect that the springing of the matter would have upon the main issue, which was to exhibit to the country the dan ger there is in caucus dictation.

CRUELTY OF THE CAUCUS.

Discussing the democratic caucus binding resolution, Mr. Patterson ask ed: "Is 1t persuasive or coercive?" And answering his own question. he declar- ed it to be cruel. "It may be refined. :" Ae went on, but it is cruel It strips senators of every element of import ance and is liable to force them to dis grace their high offices. or send them into oblivion"
 He declared that such a course brought the senate down to the level of an ordinary political. meeting He es- peciaIIy~ commended the republican party for not having whole states bound and gagged by the unit rule in national conventions"
 Mir. Patterson declared that the doc Urine that even states have a riglt to direct the votes of their senators has been abandoned. He declared that the caucus rule did not provide for the conscience of the senator and said that a senator should be true to his own convictions, constituting himself a monitor of which he should stand in awe. He appealed for relief from the cruelty anO injustice and indefensible character of the caucus action"
 ''I have no regrets for the course have pursued and shall continue to pursue it. It is true I may not be ad- mitted to the councils of my party in the senate. but realizing that I am ex- cluded because I am striving to per form my duty as I have sworn to exc cute it, l will bear the exclusion with perfect equanimity, simply saying to my democratic friends that I expect to meet them in the next democratic con vention where I hope we will nominate

4 HIDDEN CARD
 IN LAWSON'S SLEEVE
A Mysterious Something More Than
 a Majority of Proxies.

St Paul. Feb. 7.-Thomas w. Law son of Boston held four hours confer enCe with Governor Johnson at the capitol today. Immediately afterward Mir. Lawson left for Chicago. The sub ject or the conference was the form ing of a committee of governors and other prominent men to investigate the affairs of the New York Life and the Mutual Life Insurance companies. At the close of the conference. MT Lawson stated that his interview with Cover nor Johnson had been very satisfactory.
 Governor Johnson has consented to remain as member of the committed" said Mir Lawson and the others who will make up a part of the committee are Governor Broward of Florida; former Attorney General Frank & Monnett of Ohio and Fremont Older of San Francisco. I am not yet ready to announce the other names. I have enough proxies now to give me voting control of the New York Life and the Mutual Life
 Governor Johnson said to the Asso- ciated Press after the conference that he had agreed to remain on the com mittee although I refused to act as chairman of it, as MT. Lawson urged me to do, as it would take too much or my time away from the state" he added.
 Has MT Lawson the necessary proxies from the policy holders to con trol the voting in the two big life in surance companies? ?'' was asked.
 "I believe from the showing he made this afternoon, that he has" replied the governor, "and I believe MT. Lawson has a card up his sleeve that will as- tonish the folks

will bear cheerfuIly the censure or mis- understanding of my course. The rule does not change the eternal truth or the obligation of senators to observe their oaths of office
 Replying MT. Bailey said that MT. Patterson did himself an injustice by intimating that there had been a con spiracy for the purpose of accomplish ing his discomfiture He attributed the fact that MT. Culberson was equip ped with a copy of the caucus proceed ing to his colleagues habit of being al- ways prepared for an emergency.
 MT. Patterson responded that he did not care so much for the position in which he was placed as for the fact that he feared that the issue would be clouded by this incident. That he said, mortified him.
 INVITED TO CHANGE PARTIES.
 MT. Bailey then suggested to Mr. Patterson that there was but one pro- per recourse left to him and that was to change parties, and to this sugges- ton MT. Patterson replied that neither tne sneers nor the innuendos of MT. Bailey would cause him to swerve from his intention of following his convic- t!oS -ather than the behests of party. He had. he said wanted only to impress upon the country the size of the dan ger that turks in caucus dictation, and he added that if he had succeeded in accomplishing that result he would feel satisfied.
