ANARCHIST NOT GUILTY
Bcrbman, Rcarrcstcd, Declares Injur-
 cd Man Did Not Throw Bomb.

New York, March 31.-Further evil dence has been uncarthed by the police in connection with the Union Square bomb-throwing tragedy which Is of such importance that when Alexander Berkman. treasurer of the Anarchists Federated union, was arraigned in court to-day on an affidavit charging him with advising the Union Square meeting, Detective Lieutenant Wer2an- sky told Magistrate Droege that he would not dlvulge the evidence to the court at the present time The magls- trate held Bcrkman in $500 bail for cX- animation on Friday afternoon, Bail was furnished,
 Berkman before his srraignment de- nied that anarchists had anything to do with the bomb-throwing He said;
 "I don't believe that sllverstein threw that bomb. The police are trying to fastcn the crime on him. believing that he will not recover sufficiently to refute what they say There was no anarchist plot in the bomb-throwlng. Ii there was the police will never find 1t out. They are manufacturing evidence to satisfy the public mind and are dis torting facts and conditions"
 Of the six men arrested as suspects immediately after the throwing of tho bomb on Saturday, four were dlscharg- cd in court to-day.

Taft Cannot Defeat Peerless One. But
 President Can. Says Tilman.

Columbia, S. C., March 31.-Senator R. R. Tlllman was better to-day and the day before than he has been since his illness He does not, how ever, feel that he will be able to re- turn to congress this session, and eX- poets to go to an Atlanta sanitarium when he Is strong enough to travel. He and Mrs. Tlllman will remain there for several weeks, after which they will go 10 Europe.
 Senator Tlllman said to-day: "1f the republicans nominate Taft for presi- dent. Bryan undoubtedly will be named by tho democrats and think he will win. But, on the other hand, if the republicans lock up the con yention and stampede it for Roosevelt and nominate him, l do not think that the democrats can put Bryan forward. All that Bryan could say would be third term, because hc has praised tho politics of Roosevelt and there would be nothing left for him to say"

Bills for Reinstatement of Colorcd Troops Defeated in Committee.

REDMOND ON HOME RULE
Nationalist Leader Explains Meaning
 of Commons Resolution.

London, March 91--John E, Red- monJ, the Nationalist leader, whose resolution on Home Rule for Ireland, with some amendments was adopted in the House of Commons yesterday by a vote of 313 to 157, said to the Associat- ed Press tonight:
 For the first time in history, the House of Commons by an overwhelnl. ing majority itself in favor of home rule Gladstone's bill in 1886 was re- jected by majority Of thirty. His bill in 1893 was carried by majority new ments 1t descended to five or six. The resolution in favor of home rule last evening was carried by a majority of 156.
 This result is the more remarkable when the terms of the resolution are considered. It was not a resolution in favor of a half way house, or devolution, it put the home rule claim in it's frankest and fullest form, for 1t demanded parliament in Dub lin and an executive responsible to that parliament. Both the spokesman of tho ministry pledged not only themselves but the whole liberal par ty to home rule.
 Secretary Birrell said that the lib- eral party was the home rule party. Mir. Asquith declared his unalterabe conviction that home rule was the only settlement of the Irish question. Every single member of the adminis- tration, including not only Mir. As- quith, Secretary Brrell and John Morley, but Sir Edward Grey and Secretary I1aldane, voted for the res olution.
 They only preferred the condition that they were prccluded by their pledges from introducing such a measure in this parliament on the question as to the position home rule should occupy on the program of the liberal party at the next election,
 "The ministers declared that this do- pended not on them but upon the Irish | people and thc Irish party We accept | thls challenge" concluded Mir. Red mond. and the business of the Irish | party will be to take such action in Ireland, Great Britain and the house of commons as will keep the question of homo rule in the forefront of political | issues
