THE MCCALL BILL
For Publicity Of Candidates for Con.
sress Favored BY Mr.. Chandler.

Washington, April 12.-Former
United States Senator William e.
Chandler Saturday appeared before
the House committee on election Of
the President, Vice President and rep
resentatives in Congress, in support
of the Mccall bill providing for pub
licity of candidates for Congress.
He opposed the movement to include
state committees and elections other
than those for Congress in the bill.
why not pass simple bill" he said,
regulating national committees in
the coming national Presidential elec-
tion?"
This legislation, he continued. in or
der to prove thoroughly effective must
be supplemented by state legislation.
If a bill similar to the Mccall meas
ure became law, he declared, it
would prevent plutocrat directors from
stealing the funds of corporation
stockholders and contributing them to
political parties.
Perry Belmont thought that pub
licity bill along the lines of the Nc
Call act would stimulate states to
adopt publicity laws.
Representative Mccall of Massachu-
sets, author of the bill, explained its
features.

HEARTY WELCOME
Extended to Bay State Veteran BY
President Roosevelt.

Washington, April 12.-With a grip
like bear trap and hearty slap Oh
the back, President Roosevelt Satur-
day greeted at the White House an old
Massachusetts veteran who figured in
stirring scenes around Washington in
the. Sos Representative Roberts pre-
scented to him Col. w. H. Gertz. who,
at the head of his regiment, the 8th
Massachusetts,, reached Washington
on April %, 1861, the first troops to re-
spond to the call for volunteers by
President Lincoln.
President Roosevelt was delighted to
see him, and Col. GertZ told him all
about his adventurous trip to the cap
ital at the outbreak of the war. when
in order to finish the journey he had to
practically constructed a locomotive
out of q pile of junk.
When the 9Th. Mass. reached Perry
vile the road to, Baltimore was block
ed, and the regiment went to Annapo-
lis, Md, by boat. There it was found
that the Confederates had dismantled
all the railroad rolling stock. But Gertz
had been a railroad engineer himself,
and he and the machinists of the regi-
ment made an engine. from broken
pieces, and started for Washington on
three fiat cars on which two howitzers
were mounted for protection against
tine Confederates. The wheels had to be
be fastened on the cars with nails and
wire. as all the bolts had been thrown
away by the rebels.
President Roosevelt thanked the
Massachusetts, soldier for his splendid
work.

Brutal Murder
at Providence.

Providence, R. l., April Zone of
the most mysterious cases which the
police have had to investigate in this
city confronted them early today, when
Henry Kelly, 63 years of age, died at
the ERODE Island hospital from terrible
injuries received at the hands of UNI
known assailants on Canal street a
few hours earlier. Kelly was found on
Canal street with the side of his face
crushed in, the right side of his face
torn out and one eye gone, a stone
weighing 40 pounds having been drop
ped on his head Despite his injuries,
the man was alive when discovered
but died three hours later at the hos
pital without recovering consciousness.
Robbery is believed by the police, to
have been the motive of assault. Forty
cents was found in his pockets. There
is absolutely no clue to his assailants.
Kelly was found lying on the side
walk about 1856 A. M. by two young
men WHO summoned the police. The
assault must have been committed
within Is minutes of their discovery,
as the policeman on that beat had
passed over his route five minutes be-
fore returning from fire, had also
passed the spot within Is minutes and
nothing was seen of Kelly by any of
the men. Kelly had no occupation, and
lived at No 40 Walling street with his
grandson, by whom his body was iden-
titled at the hospital
The police think that Kelly was at

struck him to the ground, then rifled

Hotel EmpIoye Uses MeAuliff As Tar
get for Revolver Practice.

Washington, April 12.-Jack McAuliff,
the ex-pugilist, lodged three bullets fired
at him by an Infatuated negro bellboy in
the Hotel Nomandie Saturday. having
very narrow escape from death.
It appears that the bellboy had gr1ev-
anse against someone in the hotel and
hid behind the elevator, revolver in hand,
waiting for his victim to come along.
McAulift left the bar-room and pro-
ceeding around the elevator started to
walk upstairs to the first floor. The light
is not very good at this point and McAu-
lift bumped into the negro who, with an
oath, blaEed away with his revolver
McAulifs was dazed for moment, but
recovered his wits as the negro, seeing
his mistake. turned and raced up the
stairs. The pugilist tore after him. and
other guests, attracted by the noise Of
the shots, Joined in the chase. The negro
was caught and McAuliff cut loose with
his old collection of swings and upper
cuts. The negro was all but senseless
when the ex-puligist was through with
him, and was then permitted to go. Nc
Auliff would make no charge against him.

Meet At Lewiston to Talk Over Mat

Lewiston, April 12.-AbOut 80 school
superintendent held O. session Satur-
day at the City building to discuss
matters of vital interest in the schools
Of Maine. Mr. A. J. Collins, superin-
tendent of the Lewiston public schools,
presided.
Prof. G. C. burlington of the Farm
ington Normal school made an extend
ed address on the Improvement OF

cussion followed.
Other papers were read by Prof. An

Chase, superintendent of the Rumford

state Superintendent Smith said that
the teachers, on the whole, were UNI
derpaid and regretted the poor attend

He discussed the question of having
the schools authorities of each city
pass upon the fitness of pupils coming
from outside towns rather than re-
ceiving them into the High school up
on the certificates given by small rural
schools.
About IA questions were discussed at
the close when Mr.. Smith conducted
the question box. They included the
following: Opening or closing small

and when she once took notion she was
the kind Of person to carry it to a finish.
What reasons are advanced for homi-
cide9 Much stress has been laid upon
tho absence of any weapon. That is the
only good objection made to our conten-
ton. We can only reply that someone
found the knife and carried it away.
1--WE are told that had Miss Mullins
contemplated suicide she would not have
been likely to seek out a lonely spot SO
far away from her home; that she might
have used poison or turned on the gas in
her room.
But isn't it possible that she aimlessly
walked the streets Of Arlington and Cam
bridge for hours before she finally went
into that open lot? 1t has been argued
too, that she would not be likely to keep
her gloves on If she intended to cut her
own throat. 1 say TO that that she was
insane and didn't bother about such
things.
'Say that it was suicide and you only
have to account for the disappearance
of the weapon. Say that it was homicide
and you have to tineoriZe with many
facts which do not harmonize at all"
The Arlington police feel reasonably
certain that no one picked up the knife
or razor which killed Miss Mullins. Ctiel
Urauhart was on the scene 10 minutes
after the body was found, and he ant
his men, aided by scores of spectators
made Systematic search for 1t.

CAUGHT IN ICE.
Several Sealing Vessels damned BY
Fioes and Some Are Sunk.

st. Johns, N. F., April 12.-Bringing It'd
ings of the sinking of the steamer Grand
Lake of the sealing fleet and the serious
grip of ice foes, the sealer New Found
land limped into port today leaking bad
ly. The New Foundland's bows and stern
were crushed by ice and her crew of 200
men were forced to stand by for SO hours
pumping and bailing to keep the vessel
a1Oat.
The Grand Lake met with disaster last
less jaws of the two great ice foes until
her sides gave way. and even her engines
were crushed. She floated only three
hours. but in that time her crew, num-
bering 214 men, escaped TO the steamer
Vanguard, which was close by. A catch
of 2O0O0 seals went down with the Grand
Lake. The cargo was valued at $4,000
and was insured. The steamers Iceland
and Ranger We're also crushed by the ice
but were left afloat until their crews
could escape on the ice foes. The steam
er Algerine is also reported badly dam
aged. She tried once to reach the coast
but was driven back amid the foes by
storms and lack of coal.
All records of disaster in the annals
of the seal fisheries are believed to have
been broken by this years shipping loss
es. The steamers Panther and Walrus
have been previously reported as sunk,
and the laundering of the Grand Lake
adds third to the list.
