street southwest. heard the screams of the
children and believing fire had actually
broken out he telephoned to No. A engine

WASHINGTON, D. c., May l.
Senator Robt. NJ. LaFolette has
made his maiden speech and has
been sized up" unfavorably by
the senate.
Not that this matters to Senator
LaFollette.
The Wisconsin senator began his
speech with a dramatic defiance.
Noting the absence of his colleague,
Senator Spooner, and the general
exodus of the other senators, he ad-
dressed heated words to the presid-
ing officer. ending with the threat
that the future may see these
seats permanently vacated, which
are now empty"

Wisconsin senator began. He start

heard there were 10000 words to
be delivered.
1t was amusing to see the more
considerate attitude of the sena-
tors on the second and third days
OF the LaFolette speech. 1t was
evident that the leaders did not
like to have the idea go to the
country that they had been openly
discourteous to the one senator

In its general effect the speech
OF Senator LaFollette was an at
