Withdraws From Meeting of Commit
tee Considering Hepburn Bill.

WltnoraWS FROM meeting OF Commit
tee Considering Hepburn Bill.
Washington, Feb. IL. - Declaring
emphatically that he declrned TO
waste his time, Senator Clapp yester-
day withdrew from the meeting of the
senate committee on interstate COM
merce, which had before it for consid-
GRAFTON the house Hepburn railroad
rate bill
eff the committee is going to de-
vote all its time to inconsequential
matters and never take up the seri-
GUS problems of rate legislation,
will come back a week from to-mor-
row and vote on the reporting of a
BILL" said Senator Clapp, and with
this declaration he left the committee
room.
Amendments that were offered
came from members of the committee
believed to be opposed to the passage
of the bill. None was offered by mem
beers known to be friendly to it, and
not one of the amendments was voted
upon yesterday.
1t became evident during the dis
cussion of the various amendments
that the. arrangements to discuss the
bill during the next week would ac-
complish no important result, so great
were the differences of the opponents
and champions of the bill.
Senators Clapp and Dolliver charged
that the amendments were offered to
obstruct the perfection of bill that
stands good chance to become law.

TITLE BEFORE BREAKFAST.
The Story of How the Kaiser Made
Won Buelow a Prince.


When the Moroccan controversy had
continued two months, it still seemed
that Germany might emerge from the
dispute with scanty success. In this
controversy Won Buelow's diplomatic
skill had been pitted against that Of
M. Delcasse, the talented statesman
who had directed the foreign affairs
OF France with conspicuous success
for seven years. Won Buelow, however,
worked with great dexterity, until he
contrived suddenly to bring about Del
casse's dramatic defeat. His retire
menl into private life followed.
When Europe woke up one morning
to learn that Theophile Delcasse had
quilted Office, it could hardly believe
the report. At sunrise special
messenger was sent to the imperial
palace with the news. The kaiser, over
joyed, rose, dressed quickly and drove
to the chancellor's official residence
Extending his hand impulsively, he
said: Prince Won Buelow, congrat-
ulate you on your success" Won Bue.
low hesitated and looked questioning
ly at the kaiser. 81 have created you
q prince as a token of my gratitude
for your service to my dynasty and the
empue."

The senate was treated to a distinct
sensation yesterday by Mr.. Patterson
QDem., Colo,) who followed up his re.
tirement of last Saturday from the
Democratic caucus by introducing in
the senate a resolution in effect de-
claring the action of the caucus to
have been contrary to the Constitu-
tion of the United States. Mr.. Patter-
son made no effort to secure the priv
ilege of discussing the resolution yes
terday, but gave notice that he would
address the senate on it to-day or at
the first available day afterward.

morning business was allowed in the
house preceding the vote on the Hep
burn railroad rate bill yesterday to
permit delayed members to reach
their seats before the roll call or

Wednesday,.

Washington, Feb. 7.-Havtng fixed
the end of the general debate on the
rate bill at 400 o'clock this after
noon, the recognition of the chair was
passed around at a lively rate in the
house yesterday. Seventeen speeches
were made, all of them for the meas
ure. The railways came in for an un-
usual amount of criticism.
The senate gave the entire day to
review of the prerogatives of the sen
ate in the matter of framing treaties.
The question was raised by Mr.. Bacon
in a speech on his resolution request
ing information concerning the Alge-
ciras conference. He talked for all
most three hours, and was followed
by Mr.. Spooner, who spoke for consid-
erably more than an hour.

SATURDAY..

Washington, Feb. 10.-Almost the
entire session of the senate yesterday
was devoted to the consideration of
the urgent deficiency appropriation
bill which was passed practically as it
was reported from the committee ON
appropriations. The only discussion
was over an amendment suggested by
Mr.. Patterson TO strike out the pro-
vision relieving alien workmen on the
canal from the operations of the eight
hour law. The amendment was voted
down without "esorting to roll call.

ThurSday.

Washington, Feb. S.-By continuing
its session practically to o'clock the
house concluded all preliminary steps
to the passage of the railroad rate
bill, ordered a roll call on the meas
ure and put off the final action until
to-day at noon.
The time for amendment came at
4 o'clock, and for three hours follow
ing one amendment after another
came up, was read, debated in some
instances, and sent down to defeat.
So fierce was the struggle to amend
that often when a paragraph of the
bill was concluded in the reading, a
dozen members shouted for recogni-
ton and waved their amendments
Not one of these was adopted.
Yesterday was the first time in
many years the senate chamber was
made the scene of an effort to ad
minister party discipline to a member
of that body, and the occurrence was
one of so many dramatic details that
the many witnesses will not soon for
get it. Mr.. Patterson was the subject
of the effort and Mr.. Bailey, to whom,
in the absence of Mr. German, Demo
cratic leadership is conceded, was the
instrument of his party in the Incl
dent The proceedings arose in CON
nection with the consideration of Mr..
Patterson's resolution of remon-
STRANGE against caucus action on
treaties with foreign nations.
Conscience Should Be Guide.
Mr.. Patterson's speech was in the
main an elaboration of his resolutions,
and he contended stoutly for the right
of senator TO follow the dictates of
his conscience. rather than the de-
mands of his party.
Mr.. Ra;.ey's speech was based upon
the theory that all senators are under
obligations to obey conscience rather
than caucus, but that in doing so they
antagonize their party and should
hold themselves responsible to their
party. Mr. Bailey charged the senator
from Colorado with having been a
party to the adoption in a previous
caucus of the rule binding Democratic
senators to the two-thirds rule.
