represented the Christian nationali.
ties. Members from Jerusalem and
Mecca rubbed shoulders with their
inces and the far-off Kurdish, Armeni-
an and Arab districts on the confines
of the Indian ocean.
So far as can be judged from sur
face indications, the new parliament
has entered upon it's duties with a
united determination to carry out sue
cessfully the aims of the bloodless rev.
olution which made possible the inau-
guration of constitutional regime in
Turkey.
Sultan Parades Streets.
The sultan left Yildiz palace in a
state coach at halt past II O'Clock to
drive to the building adjoining the
ministry of justice and facing the
great square of st. Sofia, where the
new chamber convened. He was &C.
companied by the first secretary of
the imperial chancellery, Ali Bjevad
Bey, and large number of aides and
attendants. The entire line of march
of the imperial party, distance of
five miles, had been swept and spread
with fresh sand for the passage of
his majesty. These are the same
preparations made every time the sui
tan leaves Yildiz, and particularly
when he attends the Selamlik. Every
regiment in Constantinople was out
under arms and lined up along the
route of the procession to guard the
progress of the sultan.
Thousands View Scene.
Triumphal arches spanned the
streets, and as the occasion had been
made public holiday, the city was
crowded with people. Thousands came
in from surrounding towns and vil
lagos as we'll as from more remote
parts of the empire and almost the
entire local population turned out to
witness the ceremonies.
All the ministers of state, the SEN
ators and the deputies of the new leg
islative body assembled at the minis !
try of justice preparatory to march
ing to the hall of parliament. The
foreign diplomats in Constantinople
assembled at the British embassy and
proceeded to the hall in body. They
all were clad in their full official uni.
forms.
The enterprise. [volume] (Harlem, Mont.) 1899-1926, 1908-12-23

to supply the house with evidence
upon which he based his state
ment that the members of the house
were principally concerned over the
fact that the secret service men had
been Investigating members them
selves.
Resolution Is Adopted.
The house adopted the Perkins reso-
luton in regard to the president and
the secret service without a dissent
ing vote, and after very little COM
ment, Mr.. Cochran of New York, sug-
gested that it should be made ap-
plicable to congress as a whole, and
not merely to the house, but the
change was not made.
In reporting the resolution Mr.. Per-
kins said it had been recommended
unanimously by the special committee,
and said that as soon as the president
should send in any information in his
possession the committee would make
another report for the consideration of
the house.
Representative John Sharp Williams
expressed the hope that the resolution
would be adopted promptly and prac-
tically without debate.
Get the Truth, Williams Says.
Mr.. Williams said the committee
would impartially report upon this
seemingly unprovoked and unjustified
attack upon the honesty and reputa-
ton of the legislative branch of the
government"
so far as the committee knows"
said Mr.. Williams, there is not a
scintilla of evidence to support that
statement by the president The COM
mittee has thought it would be fair
to the president to give him further
opportunity to produce testimony if
he has any. The American people
have right to know if the American
congress be corrupt.
be corrupt"
Such procedure, he continued,
would allow the country, which, he
said, lis the master of both of u.s."
to exercise judgment in the matter.
The special committee he said, would
remain in session "ready to receive,
to consider and to weigh whatsoever
competent evidence the president can
furnish with absolute justice and i'm
partiality."
Would BE Just to Roosevelt.
Mr.. Perkins said the committee was
actuated by a desire to be entirely
just to the president and he added
that it had brought in the resolution
with that purpose in view.
Mr.. Keller of Ohio, wanted to know
whether the words "if not incompati-
BILE with the public service should
not be inserted in the resolution as
usual in calling on the president for
information. This suggestion called
forth laughter and Mr.. Perkins de-
clared that the resolution as worded
was a request" for information and
was imperative in it's wording.
Mr.. Perkins then cut off further dis
cussion by demanding the previous
question and Speaker Cannon calling
for viva voce vote, there was a cho-
rus of "ayes" favoring the passage
of the resolution, followed by a dead
silence when the noes were called for.
