was made by Senator Gallinger that
the call could not be interrupted. This
nettled the Idaho senator, who de-
manded that he be given a hearing.
Is there ObjectiOn?" asked the vice
president.

me out shouted Senator Hepburn,
and when the clerk started to resume
the calling of the roll ne demanded
that it stop. The vice president, how
ever, sustained the objection and the
calling of the roll proceeded. When the
vote had been announced and a lively
skirmish between Senator La Toilette
and Senator Aldrich over reconsider

burn was given the floor and explained
his reasons for voting against the blii.
La Follettes Last Effort.
Before the roll call had been COM

come into the chamber a short time
before, and who showed no signs of
the strain he had been under. made d
parliamentary inquiry as TO whether
he could not change his vote of no"
To yes in order 10 move recon-

OF order made by Mr.. Aldrich.
Then in order to take no chances"
he answered I change my vote, and
do so for the purpose of moving a We

But he was not allowed to make the
motion. As soon as the vice president
had announced the result of the vote
Senators Aldrich and La Toilette de-
manded recognition. The former WAS
recognized and moved to reconsider
the vote by which the report had been
adopted. Senator La Toilette fought
hard for recognition and made the
point of order that Senator Aldrich
was out of order when he made his
motion.
Appeal Tabled.
This point was not sustained by the
chair, and Senator Foraker then
moved TO lay Senator Aldrich's motion
on the table. Before this motion could

from the decision of the chair on this
point of order, but, on motion of SEN

the table, by a vote of 90 to g.
Before this vote had been taken Sen

by the crowds in the galleries and
they vigorously applauded him until

DIR. Linder Acquitted.

Union, Sept. 10.-In the Court OF
General Sessions to-day, DR.. w. L..
Linder was tried on the charge Of
murder and found not guilty. In
October last DR.. Linder shot Lucy
Lipsey, negro woman, three times,
and the woman died two days later.
1t was proven in the case that the
Lipsey woman had several months
before shot DR.. Linder in the back
while in his office; that she was
tried for this assault and convicted.
She appealed to the Supreme Court.
and was out on bond pending the ap-
peal, when she was shot. The evil
dence to-day established a clear and
convincing case OF self-defence.

EVANS CONGRATULATEs SMITH,
His Friends Say Election Will Not be
Contested.

Spartanburg, Sept. 9.-The friends
of Governor Evans who worked so
hard for him in the election, are
taking defeat gracefully. They had
hoped to pile up a big majority in
this county, and the fact that Smith
made such heavy gains, in Evans
home county, Is one of the surprises
Of the election. Various reasons are
attributed for Mr.. Evans defeat,
chiefest of which, is that the farmers
believed that Mr.. Smith was more
closely identified with their interests.
The fact that Mr.. Evans was the
political leader in the COS did not
enter into the campaign to any ex-
tent in this county. The ola time
conservatives voted solidly for Mr..
Evans, while the farmers placed their
ballots for Smith. The friends Of
Mr.. Evans say that he will not con-
test the election, that the people have
spoken at the polls and he will bow
to the will of the majority.
1t is understood that Mr.. Evans
has wired message Of congratula-
tion to Mr.. Smith on his success.

New Words for "Dixie."

Women Of the Confederate Choir
of America, says st. Louis dispatch,
have offlcially fitted new words to the
tune Of Dixie" The old words, they
say, are not suited to the grandeur
of the song or cause for which 1t
sings. Confederate veterans con-
denim the change.
The new StanZas are:
o. Dixie Land is the land Of glory,
The land of cherished song and story,
Look away, look away, look away,
Dixie Land.
'Tis the land that patriots love to
dwell in,
The land our fathers fought and fell
in
Look away, look away, look away,
Dixie Land.
I'm glad l live in Dixie. Hurrah,
Hmrrah,
(Rest Of chorus unchaneed.)
The blue and gray went out to battle,
And loud they made wars thunder
rattle.
Look away, look away, look away,
Dixie Land.
Our cause we lost, but won a glory,
Which still will last when time is
hOary,
Look away, look away, look away,

SHE POISONED HER HUSBAND.
A Negro Woman Placed in Jail--Shc
Used Trough on Rats"
(AnderSon Mail, 11th.)


Eliza Meats, negro woman about
forty years old, was placed {n jail
here to-day about l o'clock on a
warrant sworn out by Coroner Pru-
lit, charging her with the murder of
her husband, Preston Meats, aged
SO, who died yesterday morning
about 9 o'clock from poisoning.
The coroner went to the scene of
the tragedy on the plantation Of l..
w. Harris. seven miles northeast of
the city, near Whitfield church, this
morning, and after empannelling a
jury and taking the testimony of sew
eral witnesses, n verdict was render
ed that Meats died from poison ad-
ministered by his wife. The woman
was at once arrested by the coroner
and brought to jail here.
The finding Of the jury was based
largely on the result Of a chemical
examination of the stomach of the
dad man, made by DR.. j. G. Harris,
showing traces of arsenic. Dr. Har-
ris was called to see the negro yes
terday morning and arrived a short
time before he died. The stomach
was later removed and brought to
the city, where the examination was
made.
Meats was in the best OF health
all Of Wednesday, working all day in
the field. Half an hour after he had
eaten supper he became i'll and died
yesterday morning about > O'Clock
On arriving. Dr.. Harris was convinc-
ed that there must be something
wrong, the negro being OF powerful
build, and this led to the investiga-
ton, disclosing the presence OF arse
mic.
1t was said by witnesses that Eliza
Meats had been trying to secure
rough on rats" for some time, and
had asked those whom she asked to
get the poison for her. to keep it a
secret from her husband. She final
1y persuaded a negro who was com
ing to the city, to get box Of the
drug, and 1t developed that this was
the poison administered to the dead
man.

WILLIAM MCKINNEY DEAD.
Well Known Citizen of Greenwood
Passes to the Beyond.

Capt. S. K. Dendy called our atten-
tion to the fact that Mr.. Mckinney
was one OF the best known soldiers
of Orr's Rifles and beloved by every
member of the command. The fol-
lowing dispatch, therefore, will con-
vey to veterans Of the late war the
sad intelligence Of the death Of one
of their most honored comrades:
Greenwood, S. c., Sept. 3.-Wi-
liam r. Mckinney, one of the best
known citizens of this community,
died at his residence on Phoenix
street last night at o'clock, after
an illness Of many months. The
news Of his death will be heard with
deep and lasting sorrow by hundreds
and hundreds OF friends in this coun-
ty and by his old comrades in arms
ali over the State. He was probably
known personally by more people in
this county than any other man in
1t and If he had any enemies they
are unknown.
Mr.. Mckinney was a Confederate
veteran, having served with valor as
private in Capt. James Perrins
company in Orr's Rifles. He was
devoted to the cause. Until the last
few years, he never missed reun-
ion, State or Southern, and his home
was adorned with pictures CT Con-
federate generals and he had collect
ed valuable lot of contemporary
literature on the Confederacy. His
collection Of the Confederate Vete-
ran and newspapers from the vari-
GUS reunions was presented to the
Greenwood Public Library.
Everybody loved him. He was
sincerity itself and his outspoken de-
nunciation Of wrong never seemed to
make him enemies, though the same
denunciation on the part Of any one
else would have aroused resentment.
His funeral will take place from
his late residence this afternoon at
6 o'clock.
