London, June 5.---After ain acrimonious
debate in the House Of Commons yester-
day, in which personalities were flung

AT one time III the debate Keir Hardic
accused the Russian government Of being
responsible for the atrocities that were
taking place in that country. The speak.

marks.

Leeds, led the debate against the king.

that King Edward, with his great hui

should WISH TO consort with the ruler

In replying, Grey said it was not the
Houses province to NEEDLE In the in

result disastrousIy to the government.
we have advised the king to 90, Sir
Edward said, and we accept full respon-

a peace policy and ask the House

to war;
Lord Balfour, admitting that he stood
with the king, still, said that he could
not countenance the governments sup

MAGAZINE REVIEW.
JeIIied Vegetables.

@Jellied vegetables are particularly
suitable for luncheon or supper dish
to be served Az ain accompaniment To
almost any kind of cold sliced meat.
says Fannie Merritt Farmer in Woman's
Home Companion for June. Remove the
Jelly to serving dish, and surround vita
the slices of meat overlapping one an
other; then gaTnish with celery tips.
Colo meat needs to be very thinly sliced
to be at its best; therefore do see to
it that the closet can boast of sharp
knives, for without them the work can
not be perfectly done. Soak one table,
snooful Of graduated gelatine In one
fourth Of cupfuI Of cold water, and
dissolve in one eupful Of boiling water;
then add one-four of cupful each Of
sugar and vinegar, two tablespoonfuls
Of lemon juice and one teaspoonful OF
salt. Strain, cool, and when beginning
to stiffen add one cupful Of celery cut
up in small pieces, one half cupfni of
finely shredded cabbage and one and one
half canned pimentoes cut in small pieces.
Turn into mold, and chill thoroughly.

INSANE PENSION EMPL0YE
HOLDS OFFICERS AT BAY
Washington Official Puts Bullet Into
His Own Brain After Standing
Of Police for Six
Hours

WASHINGTON, June 7.-After hold
ing the police at bay for six hours, DR..
Joseph Posphisiel, an employe Of the
pension office, shot himself through the
brain this morning while insane. Labor
ing under a delusion that an attempt
was being made to murder him, he
fired at pedestrians and into the homes
of his neighbors, and when the police
came he reloaded his pistol and fired
upon them, preventing their near ap-
proach to the house. Altogether he
fired about fifty shots in this way, none
of which, however, took effect.
Before arming himself, Posphisiel
passed his three little children through
the second story window to persons IN
the adjoining house. His wife remained
with him endeavoring to quiet him, bu;
becoming alarmed when he opened fire
on the police she joined her children in
the neighbor's house.
At the time he shot himself he was
sitting in the second story window of
his home. He first rolled up his sleeve
and injected cocaine in his arm to
steady his nerve for the fatal shot. He
plunged forward to the ground and
died on the way to the hospital.
He came to Washington from Wis
consin about eighteen years ago. He
has relatives in that state. -

WARSHIPS READY

MAINE AND ALABAMA WILL

INTERIOR SECRETARY GARFIELD
TO MAKE TRIP
Limited Capacity and Inferior Engines
Are Cause Of Sending Two Battle-
ships Ahead of Regular
Fleet
BY Associated Press.

SAN FRANCISCO, June 7.-Leaving
the warships of the Atlantic fleet, to
follow a month later, the battleships
Maine and Alabama, designated as a
special service squadron. will sail from
this port tomorrow morning on the long
voyage to Hampton roads by way of
Honolulu, Manila, Alden and the SueZ
canal. Capt. Giles B. Hardber of the
cial squadron and on the first leg of
the long cruise will have a member of
the presidents abinet-Secretary of
the Interior James A. Garfield-as
guest and passenger. Secretary Gar
field arrived from Washington today
and will go to Honolulu on the Maine,
where he will study the labor question,
immigration problem. commercial de-
velopment of the islands and the coast
wise trade.
Tonight the two battleships, lying
with others in man-of-war row in the
harbor, are spick and span for the re-
ception of Secretary Garfield, who Will
be received with a salute of thirteen
guns, not only from the Maine as he
boards that vessel, but from Rear Ad-
miral Sperry's flagship, the Connectl-
cut, which came from dry dock yes
terday and anchored at the head of the
column of the two divisions.
The Maine and the Alabama are the
two first ships of the big fleet that
came through the Straits of Magellan
to turn their bows homeward and will
complete the trip around the world
ahead of the flagship Connecticut and
the remainder of the fleet. arriving at
Hampton roads on October %, ten
ho there
on their record breaking cruise.
The Maine and Alabama will arrive
at Honolulu on June IL, remain there
five days, touch at Guam on July and
reach Manila July II. This will be the
last American port to be entered by
them until they reach Hampton roads.
On July 30 they will sail from Manila,
touching at Singapore August 8, Co
lombia August IA and pass through the
Suez canal September 8.
The squadron is scheduled to arrive
at Naples September 10. remaining
there a week and arriving at Gibraltar
September 80.
The dropping of the Maine and AL
ALBANIA from the main fleet is due, one
to her limited capacity, and the other
to inferior engines. The steaming
radius of the Maine without re-coaling
is limited to $500 miles, and there is a
stretch Of over 1000 miles of sea after
the fleet leaves Honolulu before 1t
reaches New Zealand. The engines of
the Alabama, it is said, are not equal
to those of the other battleships, and 1t
Is feared that she might retard the prog
ress Of the fleet should they break
down.
