M'DANIELS PLAY
 EXCITES INTEREST
He Paid $2 for a Marriage License
 for no Apparent Purpose.

Murray Mcdaniel, the man who ap- piled to the probate court for a license to marry Esther Power, could solve a mystery If he could be located. He is regarded as either d curious practical joker or a lunatic. The Power family claims to know nothing about the li- cense which Mcdaniel received and for which he paid s2. When he first ap- peared at the office of the probate court and stated that the girl was only sixteen he was told that he would have to obtain the consent of her parents or her legal guardian. He offered to bring the mother of the girl to court but was told that that was not neces- serve the purpose.
 He went away and soon returned with what purpOrted to be the written consent of Mrs. Power. On the same sheet of paper he had written his own name and that of the girl. His chi rography has a good business style
 Both Mrs. Power and her daughter say they know nothing about the li- cense. They never heard of it until they read about it in the newspapers. They know very little more about Me . Daniels. He had room at the Power residence for time but he paid no att tention to the girl then and never spoke of love or matrimony. The H. cense was issued on January P. but at his request was not made publi, until day before yesterday. Since then he has not been seen.

The Debate on the Hepburn Measure Filled
 in the Day.
The Speeches Were All in Favor of It. but Questions Directed the Speakers Indicated Some Forthcoming Opposition.

Washington, Jan. 39.-Members of the house evinced mora general in- terest in the discussion of the railroad rate bill throughout the day than any topic of legislation for some time. The debate throughout was listened to at tentively and many questions were asked of the different speakers to bring out either obscure points in the measure or evils complained of which no attempt had been made to include in the bill.
 The debate was opened by Mir. Townesend. of Michigan, in an eX- haustive argument on the general sub ject, and sharp criticism was directed toward those who had opposed the railroad rate legislation. MT. Adam son, of Georgia. representing the mi nority. followed in commendation of the measure and in praise of President Roosevelt's stand on the question. which, ne said the minority were availinS themselves of in the present instance. MT. Hinshaw, Of Nebraska, depicted the benefit the legislation would do to the great trans Missouri country, and MT. Richardson, of Ala bama, discussed as a democrat the things left undone in the measure.
 Questions addressed to the various speakers by MT. Sherly, of Kentucky. and MT. Littlefield. of Maine, indicat- ed that there is to be some opposition to the bill at least in debate. The feature seemingly subject to attack is as to just what will be the authori- ty of the interstate commerce conmis- sion under the bill, relative to differ

Mother of Actress, Maud
Adams, Engaged to Mrs.
BradIey's Victim.
BROWN HAD CAST OFF
MRS. BRADLEY.
His Marriage TO Mrs. Adams Was to
Have Been Solemnized on New
Years Day-After All His Disgust
ing Conduct With Mrs. Bradley He
Spurned Her and Became Engaged
to the Adams Woman.

New York, Dec. 15.-Before leaving
for Washington, Mrs Annie Adams,
mother Of Maud Adams, the actress,
made a written statement in which
she said that she, Mrs. Adams. was
to have been married on New Years
day to former Senator Brown, Of
Utah, who was shot last Saturday in
Washington by Mrs. Annie Bradley,
OF Salt Lake City and died at mid
night yesterday. Part OF the state
ment is as follows:
Before leaving for Washington
wish to make a statement which now
seems necessary. Senator Brown and
were to have been married. When
the news of the tragedy came I was
expecting him to join me, in New
York. We had planned to go to Bos-
ton to see my daughter, Maud Adams
to acquaint her with our engagement
We were then to have journeyed To
his son and daughter and tell them
We had hoped to have a union of the
two families at the celebration of the
ceremony on New Years day.
II was Mrs. Rradleys best friend
Mrs. Adams continued when the
senator first proposed marriage to me
I plainly told him 1t was his duty to
marry Mrs. Bradley. But he gave me
every assurance that a marriage alli-
ance with Mrs. Bradley was impos-
sible. He refused positively to marry
her and told me that If he could not
marry me he would not marry any
one.
Under these circumstances l con-
sented to be his wife if he would ar
range matters satisfactorily to Mrs
Bradley. He told me that he would
do this and I knew that he had COM
municated with her and asked her
how much money she would need"
Mrs. Adams name was connected
with the tragedy through letters found
In Senator Browns desk, compelling
her to make public explanation.
