WILL FIGHT HILL

American ports at the expense Of the
Canadian. In reply to charges by Sir
Thomas Shaughnessy of the Canadian
Pacific at Montreal banquet, Mr.. Hill
7'If it were our intention to haul
Canadian products to American ports,
would it be necessary to construct a
new east and west line? We would be
able to do that with our present lines,
and we would not need to spend $4,000
900 for terminals at Winnipeg: What
ever other people may say about the
new line, the people Of the northwest
do not look at it in that way: When
the time comes the records will show
what we are doing.
"Whom does the business of Canada
belong to2 1t belongs, of course, to the
people Of Canada. IF the Canadian Pa
cifc and the Grand Trunk Pacific want
the business east Of Winnipeg they can
have it, but we do not propose to put
all our eggs in one basket.'

DELAY WILL COST

Bickering Over Bridge Plans May

Bv w. w. Jermane.


Washington, May 23.-Word was con-
veyed to war department. officials to-
day of a fruitless session OF the st.
Paul aldermen last night to consider
the Fort Smelling bridge bonds and
trolley line provisions. [ am authorized
to say that the war department does
not care one cent whether st. PAU ac-
cepts the terms proposed by tae gov
eminent or not. That offer was made IN
good faith and it was naturally sup.
posed here that it would be accepted
without a word of debate or moment 8
delay. Now that the St. Paul council
seems disposed to bicker and delay,
The government will not object.
At the expiration of the one year
within which, under the terms OF the
act, St. Paul must have complied with
its provisions, the war department. Will
construct permanent terminals and 9th
er necessary buildings on the Smelling
grounds and arrange to do all It's busl.

mediate repairs are made,
A few DAYS ago one of the command
ing officers at Fort Smelling had occa-
sion to order batterey Of artillery and
"a troop of cavalry to cross the bridge,
and these bodies were stretched out to
four times their customary length, so
great was the danger.
The government knows that failure
tof st. Paul to accept the plans will cut
the fort off permanently from contact
with ST. Paul, and connect it quitet as
permanently with Minneapolis, which
am informed will suit the officers and
linen at the fort personally.

Special to The Journal
Bemidji, MINI, May 23.-The facts

Flatt, Duluth milliner, lies wounded in
a Beaudette hotel, and John London,
who says he is a Duluth business man,
is behind the bars Of the Beltrami

first degree, and probably facing a
more serious charge. - ~.
The man is Of jealous disposition
and pursued the woman, who fled to the
dining room of Beaudette hotel, where
the stabbing occurred in the presence Of
guests who were eating supper. The
knife entered the woman back and but
for a slight movement on her part at
the time the wound would have been
fatal.
London and Mrs. Flat left Duluth
some time ago and were next heard
from at Fort Francis. Later police
man was accosted by a woman who, in
great excitement said,
HTell me where I can hide. A man
is after me and wants to kill me, and he
has several times threatened he would
kill me. -
The woman was shown place where
she might feel safe. But growing un.
easy crossed the river and the next day
took the train for Beaudette, where she
was followed by the man determined tc
| do the cowardly act.
The knife was buried in her back just

A MILITARY PLOT
Courtiers Even Thought Of Getting a
New Man for Emperor.


London, May 23.-The story of a
military plot against the Russian dou-
ma, as printed by the Tribune, has
been declared by another correspondent
in st. Petersburg to be a joke, which,
however, when it became current, be-
gan to be seriously credited.
The Tribune correspondent reaffrms
the story. He declares that the situa-
ton is absolutely serious and that the
plans of the conspirators are still be-
|: ing developed. s'3J ~
The plot, according to the correspond
emit, started few weeks before the
douma met. Officers of the czar'a
bodyguard met and swore~ upon their
swords that they would die rather thap
allow limitation Of the autocracy and
the appropriation Of imperial and pri'
vate lands.
Assuming the name of the Red
Guard, they first proposed a court revo
luton. They were prepared to nom
mate new monarchy if necessary, but
their candidate for the throne refused
to share in the conspiracy They the1
decided practically to hem the car il
at Tsarskoe Selo until their aims were
| achieved. p
The correspondent believes that tn,
| plan cannot be realized. He says Their,
| are more officers who would oppose
reactionary revolution than woult
| support it, The bulk Of the rank an,
file would refuse to obey orders from

WILLIAMS HAS A
TILT WITH CANNON
Minority Leader in House Goes
= Against Uncle Joe" and
II Loses.

Washington, May 23.-When the
house met at noon today. an unusual
scene occurred Immediately after the
approval of the journal. @
Mr.. Williams. the minority leader, de-
manded the yeas and nays on mo-
ton of Mr.. Adams (Pa.) to 20 into COM
mittee Of the whole for further consid-
Grafton Of diplomatic and consular bill.
This demand was refused, the speaker
holding that one-ffth, of the members
present had not risen to demand the
yeas and nays. ~
ct demand that the other side be
taken'' called out Mr.. Williams. "
The speaker up to this time had been
calm and unruffled. He refused to
take the negative on rising vote, stat
ing that but short time before it had
been demonstrated that a quorum Of the
house was present. Then Mr.. Will
Jams became angry and Numbered out
a protest against the ruling Of the
speaker insisting that the demand was
within his parliamentary right, right
recognized by the rules of the house
Excitement followed the remark Of Mr.
Williams and the speaker, nettled at the
manner of the floor leader Of the mi
nority, decisively replied that the rules
were silent on the point and that he was
wholly within the constitution when he
refused to take the other side when an
insufficient number rose to demand the
yeas and nays.
The speaker pounded the desk while
Mr.. Williams continued to speak his
words being drowned by the noise OF
the gavel and the excitement on the
floor. Leaving Mr.. Williams standing
the speaker descended from the desk
and Mr.. Curtis (Kan.) took his place
whole and general debate on the diplo
matte and consular bill was resumed.

WASHINGTON, May 23.-The Philip
pine tariff bill is to be abandoned for
this session Of congress. Senator Lodge
has decided not to make the action Of
which he gave notice that he would ask
the discharge of the Philippine commits
sion from further discussion of the bill,
thus bringing it directly before the SEN
tate for discussion and action. He has
decided that nothing could be accom-
plished by this program.
The proposition to compromise by fix
ing the duties on importations from the
philippines at so per cent Of the Ding

A proposition is. being discussed to
the importations of sugar and tobacco
from the Philippines to certain num-
