LUCKY ESCAPE OF SOLDIERS
Three Men Caught Beneath Falling
Walls at Frisco, Own Life to
Mass of Iron.

San Francisco. The first accident In
connection with the dynamiting OF
dangerous walls by the engineers OF
the army took place Sunday. Smaller
quantities or explosives than were
used last week are now being fred,
which necessitates two or more
charges of dynamite being exploded
before the desired result Is attained.
Sunday morning the engineers were
working in the downtown district.
Twice had dynamite been exploded
under the facade OF a tall ruin. and a
third charge was being inserted when
the wall fell. Three soldiers were
buried, but a mass OF twisted iron
partly shielded them, and only one
was seriously hurt,

ColIusion Charged by Ben Tillman.

Washington, January 6.-Senator Till
man states that he will remain in South
Carolina long enough to take hand in
the affairs OF the dispensary investigat-
ing committee if the committee wants
him. He says that he notified the mem
bers of the committee some time ago
that he would attend should his presence
be desired, but that up to this time he
has received no notification to be present.
The Senator says that so far as he
knows at this time, the only thing he
could do would be to consult with the
committee in regard to the collusion now
going on. just how far this consultation
will go or what turn it will take, he is
not prepared to say, except that he is
sure of one thing, and that is that pres
ent methods of doing business must stop.
That these methods and tho scandal that
has hung about them for long time
have become an eye sore to Senator Till
man, is apparent.

BIENNIAL SESSIONS WILL BE POSTPONED
Must Again Be Ratified in the General EIec

[The State, January II.

Inc Otate, january lZ
The joint committee appointed to
look into the alleged illegality of the
proceeding under which the "bien-
nial sessions" amendment to the con-
stitution was adopted by the legisla.
ture two years ago and ratified by the
people at the general election in 1904,
yesterday submitted its report.
In this document it is set forth
that the constitutional exactions and
requirements were not observed in
the enaction of this joint resolution,
and the joint committee recommends
that the whole transaction be started
anew and that the matter be again
submitted to the people for ratiica-
tion. Col. B. A. Morgan, of Green
vile, in presenting the report of the
committee to the house said in sub
stance
"1n reference to the first section Of
the report just read, relating as it
does to the fact that the amendment
was not entered in the journal, l
want to say in behalf of the commit
Tee that no blame should attach to
che clerk of the house. The provis-
ion is one required by the constitu-
tion and not by the rules of the
house.
"The clerk in making his entry fol.
lowed the rules, and it was sufficient
under them. The journal was laid
on the desk of the members. 1t was
then in order to correct errors and
supply omissions.
"In order that it may be under
stood that the committee is in no
wise seeking to shit. responsibility
and lay it to the clerk, we thought it
meet and proper that we make this
