ports have been received here that
tend to complicate the mystery sur.

from Montana, who went by the name
Of John Stuart, but whose right name
was Henry Isacks. John Stewart was
seen alive last week in Canada. -.
Mckenzie, the man who is in the
Rosseau county Jail charged with the
murder, says that he knew Stuart was
an escaped convict and that there was
a reward of 81, 900 for his arrest. He
says he decided not to say anything
about his knowledge of the reward
until fall, when he would need the
money.

Alfonso Had Narrow Escape.

LONDON, June Ia dispatch to the
Exchange Telegraph company from
Madrid today says the bomb.thrower
has been arrested and is confined in
the Medic Dia police station. The
suspect, known as Hamilton, was con.
fronted during the day, in the pres
ence OF the civil governor, with the
proprietors of the two houses where
he had stopped. After two hours ex-
animation no satisfactory conclusion
was reached and it was admitted that
the prisoners Identification was open
to doubt.
Another dispatch from Madrid says
King Alfonso had an even more mi
raculous escape than generally is
known. A fragment OF the bomb
struck his breast, but the force was
broken by the chain of the king q
Portuguese Order of Santiago, which
he was wearing. The chain was brok.
en-, but it stopped q piece OF steel
which otherwise might have pierced
the kings breast.

Congressman Commits Suicide.

WASHINGTON, June 1.-Congress.
man Robert Adams of Pennsylvania,
the author of the famous whipping
post bill, committed suicide by shoot
ing this morning He placed the wea.
pom in his mouth and fred the bullet.
The only motive for the suicide 10
found in letter written by Adams to
Speaker Cannon of the house, which
was read this morning. Adams said
that the fact that his personal obliga.
tious exceeded his resources is the
ooly reason for abandoning the re.
sponsible position he held. The act oi
the congressman, who was we'll known
and we'll liked in Washington, has
created deep sorrow among many o1
his colleagues.
AT the opening of the house session
this morning brief ceremonies were
held. Adams desk was draped an6
banked with flowers. The chaplain
referred to the tragedy in the prayer
Speaker Cannon then read the lette,
which be had received from the deat
man. 1t said, besides that portion
already quoted:

expense, but l ask that no committe,

Many of the members were very much
affected over the references made tc
the dead man. The house adjourned
without transacting any business.

Speaker Cannon "ShOws" the MissOuriau

WASHINGTON, June 2.-What might
have been a serious parliamentary snarl
was dexterously avoided by Speaker
Cannon late this afternoon in the
house. when Mr.. Murphy of Missouri
rose to present what he denomin ated
privileged resolution. The conference
reports on the rate and statehood bills
had been made and ordered printed,
when the Missouri congressman pre-.
sented resolution resembling the &C.
tion OF the house In sending the state
hood bill to conference and providing
for vote on the senate amendments.
Mr.. Payne Of New York, leader Of
the majority, Instantly made the point
that the resolution was not privileged,
as the papers In the case were with the
senate, and he had serious doubt If the
resolution would be privileged, even
If the papers were with the house.
The point was sustained and confu.
sion ensued, Mr.. Murphy and q num-
ber of democrats springing to their
feet to take exception to the ruling Of
the speaker. Above the din Mr.. MUIR
ply was heard to say:
''Let US have a square deal, Mr..
Speaker. appeal from the decision
of the chair" but the speaker was OBJ
livious to the motion for an appeal
and adjourned the house at $50 until
noon on Monday, on motion of Mr..
Bonynge of Colorado, leaving Mr..
Murphy gesticul ating on the floor.

met in Caldwell this morning, the at.
torneys for the state, in the cases
against Meyer, Haywood and Petit.
bone, accused of the murder of Frank
Steunenberg, filed motion for con.

statute, which, as construed by the
supreme court, prohibits state from
taking further proceedings in a cause
of this kind when an appeal from a
United States circuit court in habeas

that a defendant is restrained of his
liberty in violation of his constitu.
tional rights is still pending in the

ed and proceedings are stayed.

Opposition To Meat Order.

WASHINGTON, May 3l.-No appli.
cation to be heard on the Beveridge
beef inspection amendment has been
made to the house committee on agri.
culture by the packers and no meet
ing of the committee has been called
to consider this or other senate amend.
ments to the agricultural appropria-
tion bill.
Members of the houses are, however,
receiving protests by wire against the
inspection amendments from the cattle
raisers and it has been suggested that
if the packers are opposing the prop
osition they are working through the
cattle raisers. The opposition which
the raisers voice is in regard to the
inspection.

Smoot Is not entitled to his seat in the
United States senate 40 q senator from
Utah was the decision of the senate
committee on privileges and elections
decided today by q vote OF seven to
five.
The effect of the resolution adopted
will be to place squarely before the
senate the question whether Senator
Smoot shall continue in his seat aud
leave to the body the decision as to
the method of procedure. A majority,
1t Is said. can declare that it is the
sense OF the senate that Senator Smoot
be excluded and under the form OF the
resolution proceed to unseat him by
that method. Chairman Burrows,
who will draft the report, is of the
opinion, as is also Senator Dubois,
who has directed the fight against the
Utah senator, that the senate can de.
eide for itself the procedure to be
pursued. The report under the in-
structions of the committee will be
ready to be offered to the senate on
Friday next. Chairman Burrows and
Senator Dubois express themselves as
confident that vote will be had at
the present session.

ROOSEVELT DEFIES PACKERS.
President Will Expose Business Methods
Of the Beef Trust.

WASHINGTON, June l.-President
Roosevelt decided today to make pub.
lie the report Of Prot. Charles p.
Neill, commissioner of labor, and
James r. Reynolds, of New York,
concerning the conditions Of the meat
packing establishments, as they found
them on an inquiry instituted by the
president primarily for his own infor.
nation.
The report of Commissioner Neill
and Mr.. Reynolds will be sent to con.
gress next Monday. 1t will be accom-.
panied by q special message Of Presi-
dent Roosevelt in which he will take
strong ground in favor of immediate
and drastic legislation to correct the
evils which are exposed in the re.
port.
The president had not expected to
make public the report of Mr.. Neill
and Mr.. Reynolds. He felt that its
publication might injure the meat
packing industry in this country.
Primarily, the information contained
in this report was to be used as a
basis for the legislation proposed in
the amendment to the agricultural
bill by Sen ator Beveridge, of Indiana
He did not imagine there would be
serious opposition to a proposition to
afford such inspection Of meats, pre-
pared for domestic consumption, as i,
afforded to meat products intended fol
shipment abroad.
The meat packers, however, rose ir
arms against the Beveridge amend
ment, being insistent in opposition tc
it, not to inspection in particular, but
in the question OF paying for the pro
posed inspection.
Representative Wadsworth, of New
York, called on the president today
He is chairman Of the agricultural
committee of the house. to which the
proposed amendment will be referred
He indicated to the president the in
tention of the committee to consider
the amendment proposed by Senator
Beveridge, and adopted PRACTICAL,
without division by the sen ate, and L
prepare substitute for it, ito be fail
to all parties concerned"
The attitude Of Mr.. Wadsworth wa,
not satisfactory to the president. Ii
view of the facts reported to him b.
Mr.. Neill and Mr., Reynolds, the pres
ident is of the opinion that immedia
legislation of drastic nature i
necessary to cure the evils which
have been developed. He decided
therefore, to make public the Neill
Reynolds report.

Amending Rate Bill.

WASHINGTON, June l.-Only two
amendments remained to be settled
when the conferees on the railroad rate
bill adjourned today, and these will
probably be decided tomorrow. The
amendments in dispute are those
relating to Jim Grow" cars and the
one prescribing that no hearing Of ap.
plications for injunctions, setting
aside orders of the interstate com.
merce commission, shall be had with.
out fve days notice to the commits.
sion.
Two important amendments were re.
dr. raf.ed by the ccnferees. One of these
was the pass amendment, for which q
substitute was offered by the house
conferees. and the substitute was &C.
cepted. 1t makes noexemptions what
ever, but it Is not to take effect until
January l, 1907.
The other amendment redrafted to.
day was the one making pipelines
common carriers. 1t now provides
that pipelines now transporting oil
partly through pipes and by rail and
partly by pipes and partly by water
shall be common carriers.
The action of the senate in striking
out the words, "in its Judgment" anc
"fairly remunerative," was agreed to
by the conferees. These are two oI
the important amendments having Q
bearing upon what was known as the
Allison compromise to the rate-mak'
ing section of the bill. The conferees
agreed that express companies should
be brought within the provisions o.
the act to regulate interstate com
merce. but that palace sleeping cars
should not.
