While temporarily insane Charles f..

of this city. tried to commit suicide in
slashed his throat with penknife.
After being removed TO hospital it
was said that the wound was not ser
ious. The telegram which brought the
news to the Republican. said
that Smith imagined mob was chas-
ing him, which prompted him to kill
himself to get away. Inquiry at ell
East Main street. where Mr.. Smith
rooms. resulted in the information that
Mr.. Smith had been in Cedar Rapids
for two weeks.
Partner TeIephoned For.
w. l.. Peckham, Mr. Smiths partner,
was found shortly before he left for
Cedar Rapids on an early afternoon
train, where he said he had been sum
moned by a telephone message which
said that Mr. Smith was sick. He
said Mr.. Smith had been In Cedar
Rapids on business for the firm. He
knew of no reason for an attack of
temporary insanity. and previous to
Mr.. Smiths going to Cedar Rapids he
said he had noticed nothing to indi-
cate that MIR. Smiths mind was af-
fected in any way.
Unbalanced Mentally Several Days.
AT the Delevan hotel. where Smith
has been stopping, Landlord Young had
noticed for week or ten days that
Smiths actions were decidedly strange.
Sunday night he left the Delevan and
Went to the Allison and failed to take
either his hat or coat. This morning
he grew worse, and Landlord Gaskill,
of the Allison. sent for "a physician and
a business acquaintance of Smith. They
went to his room, but found the door
locked. They peered over the tram
som, and saw him lying on the floor.
Forcing an entrance thru another Win
dow they found the man bleeding from
three wounds in his neck. He was then
taken to Mercy hospital, where MS
wounds were dressed.
At Cedar Rapids it was stated that
no cause for Mr.. Smiths temporary
arrangement could be learned.
Mr.. Smith came to this city five
years ago, and soon after entered a
partnership with Mr.. PecEham. His
home was formerly in Boston, where
Mrs Smith now lives and where his
son Bradley also resides. A daughter
also lives in the east.

Bryan's Publicity Plea.
William ]. Bryan appeared last week
before the house committee on election
Of president and vice president for the
purpose OF urging the passage of bill
providing for publicity of campaign
contributions to the political parties.
He took the ground that all arguments
used in elections should be used pub
licly, and all means employed to Sc
cure the election of or to defeat a can
didate should be means which the one
using them would not be ashamed to
have the world know. He insisted
that the most important thing to be
done was to make the campaign con-
tribution known before the election.
CorteIyou's Reply Criticised.
Senators Culberson, Tillman and 9TH
ers Of the minority made strenuous OBJ
jections to the course of Secretary Cor
telyou in his reply to the senate's re.
quest for information. Culberson said
1t was against all precedent for a de-
partment head to reply to a legislative
demand in a public printed document.
and Tillman thought it was assuming
the airs Of a president. Thus, they ar
gued, had the secretary got his defense
before the senate and the public, while
the actual data and evidence of his Of
fetal acts came to the senate in q mass
which would take time to examine and
have printed.
Deficiency Bill Passed.
The house passed the urgent def
cheney appropriation bill, carrying a
total of $23,G64, 450, or $4,000 less
than was reported by the committee.
The largest single reduction was that
of 100000 in the clothing funds Of
the army.

British Parliament Opened.

King Edward opened another ses-
sion of the parliament at Westminster
Jan. % and delivered speech from
ical legislative programme. AS to for
| eign affairs, the two leading points were
| the announcement of an international
conference ut London next autumn on
the prize court and that negotiations
were on foot to remedy the conditions
| in the KOngo. Bills are to be brought
| forward in the commons for license
and educational reform in Wales and
| England, to regulate the hours Of labor
in coal mines, for the better housing OF
the working classes, to amend the sys-
| tenn Of property assessment in England
and for the purchase of lands in Ire
land and Scotland. Two unusual Incl
dents marked the opening ceremonies.
One was q rush of women suffragists
about the carriage containing the king
and queen. demanding "votes for wom-
en-" The other was the election from
the lords OF a bogus claimant to a seat.
Lord CurZon's right to seat among
the peers TO sit and vote on the part
Of Ireland was recognized.
Woman Suffrage I'm France.
The growth of the sentiment for wo-
man suffrage in France is shown by
the fact that resolution to be pre-
scented to the chamber favoring votes
for women has received $4,000 sigma
lures. When the number reaches 100,-
600 the petition is to be presented by
the National Council of Women.
Haitian Revolt Crushed.
The government of Haiti announced
that the revolution had been suppress

come the Warwick of his party by
naming one on whom all could reunite
the fact stands out that either no such
request was made or that If made it
was not needed by the masterful Ne
braskan. Some reports from Wash
ington told how Bryan at dinner
given to Democratic senators by New
lands of Nevada had silenced all oppo-
sition and had announced that he was
to be made the heir to the Roosevelt
policies. which were well known to
have been originally his. 1t was also
said that Bryan already had the plat
form prepared for the Denver conven-
ton to adopt Both of these reports
later were denied. as well as the report
that Bryan had urged the Democrats
in congress to uphold the measures ad-
vocated by the president. The outcome
of the whole Washington visit was the
increased conviction that Bryan, and
he alone, was in command of the party
organization at this time.

Capitol Grafters In Court.
The Eve officials indicted for COM
plicity in defrauding the state in con-
nection with the construction Of the
new capitol Of Pennsylvania were
brought into court for trial last week.
Attorneys for Joseph NJ. Huston. the
architect, demanded that he be tried
apart from tho other four men. This
was granted and was taken as an in
dication that Huston would testify for
the state. The indictments arose from
the fact that when the capitol building
at Harrisburg had been erected at an
expense Of $3,015. 96s.52 the board of
public grounds and buildings permit.

expend 100000 in furnishing the
