came from the direction of officers who
were chasing a man south on that
street, but none of them claim the

the early part of the night, especially
among the Italians who reside in that

The shot was fired directly in from

over the head by Officer Ladn,er. This
did not stop him, however, and he con

Ger Ladnier fired the shot. AS he was
running he had his revolver in his
hand, and those who were on the
street at the time thought he was the
party who fired and struck the other

Officer Ladnier. however. declared
when seen last night that he fired nc
shot. He said the street was toe
crowded to shoot, and that in addition
he was gain ng rapidly on the man, SO
there was no necessity OF shooting. He
said that. whoever fired the shot was
only short distance behind him, and
he was afraid for few moments that

NEW YORK, Sept. G.-The stock

UPHOLD RIGHTS OF STATES
Democrats Inclined to Make Issue
of Roots Speech.
Resolutions Aimed at II introduced
by Senators Whyte and Rayner.
Republican support Expected.

The Democrats of the Senate believe
they have found an issue upon which TO
fight out the next national campaign. 1t
is the question Of States rights They
have held a number Of conferences upon
the recent speech of Secretary Root in
New York on centralized government"
and it is understood that they unani-
mously agree upon u policy of united
opposition.
Two resolutions on that subject, which
were offered in the Senate yesterday, are
the first of a number to be offered shortly.
1t is hoped TO arrange for enough speeches
to rIvet the attention of the country upon
the subject. Democratic leaders say that
they will receive support from the Re
publican side of the chamber in opposing
the doctrine as set forth by Secretary
Root.
Senator Whyte's resolution declares that
the government is in the nature of a
confederated republic" having only dele
gated rights, and that there are reserved
to the States all residuary powers not
SO delegated. It also declares that the
extension of Federal powers cannot be
accomplished by a strained construction
of the Constitution which shall obliterat5
ali State rights"
The Rayner resolution declares that the
functions Of the Executive should be lim-
tied tc the duties assigned to him by the
Constitution and the laws. and there
should be no interference with the legis-
lative or judicial branches Of the gov
eminent or the reserved rights Of the
States. and also that the States have
no right 70 surrender their reserved
rights

DISTRICT WILL TAKE PART.
Congress Provides for Building at
the Jamestown Exposition.

The Senate yesterday passed two Dis
tTict bills. one to provide for a District
OF Columbia building at the Jamestown
Exposition. and the other to extend for
one year from June 80, 1907, the time in
which the approaches to the highway
bridge over the Potomac may be COM
pleted. When Senator Gallinger called up
the latter measure Senator Burkett dis
played some disposition to question the
object of the extension. and asked if
there were TO be any further estimates
for the construction of the approaches TO
the highway bridge, and If further appro-
priations would result from the extern
sion He was assured by Senator Cal
Hnger that neither contingency would oc-
cur.
The bill for a District building at the
jamestown Exposition provides an ap-
preparation of $4,000 for its construction
and furnishing. one-half to come from
the revenues of the District The bill also
provides that there shall be photographs
and models of the public buildings of the
Capital in the District exhibit and the
District Commissioners may employ such
of the employees of the District as may be
required TO prepare and install the Dis
trict exhibits at jamestown, but no COM
pensauon other than they receive oTd.-
narily shall be paid them for such serv-
ice
The Washington herald., 1906-12-18

Judiciary Committee, and the majority Of
the lawyers who are members Of that
body have taken ground against what
they fear is likely to become an abuse
OF a section of the Constitution that was
never intended to have the meaning and
effect that has been put upon it.
The matter came UP last June on a
resolution introduced 10y Senator Culber-
son in regard to the power Of Congress
under the Constitution 20 regulate insur-
ance." Senator Spooner made the report
for the committee on that resolution, and
the report declared that the committee
held that Congress had not the power,
but at some future time the committee
would report more at length. a member
Of the committee stated yesterday that
the position taken IN the report made last
June was reached after discussing the
Dryden bill to regulate insurance under
the interstate commerce principle, yet
the committee was not at that time will
ing to go cute as far as the resolution
introduced yesterday by Senator Spooner
requires.
The feeling is strong around the Senate
that President Roosevelt has strained the
Constitution continually in his trust
busting propensities. and there is a dis
position to call check by such methods
as that indicated by the Spooner resolu-
/ ton.
