WESTERN SENATOR
IN MAIDEN SPEECH
6orah of Idaho Opposes
Older Heads and Makes
Favorable Impression.

Another OF the new Senators made his
initial appearance on the floor of the
upper chamber, and made it with
notable credit, when Senator Borah OF
Ldaho got into the discussion of the
criminal code revision bill.
senator Borah wanted an amendment
adopted which should bar Senators and
Representatives from practicing law in
the Federal courts in cases in which the
United states was directly or indirectly
interested He found himself very soon
opposed by a group Of the older and
more seasoned Senators. but he con

In his manner Of speaking to the
Senate he reminded his hearers of Sen

utation Of being quite the easiest, read

Mr.. BaiIeys talk is always as clear as
The tones Of a bell. He can't be mis-
understood. He IS so simple and easy

PLAN STAMP
 OF APPROVAL
Democrats ACquieSCe in
 Bryan'S Nomination
A Housing Ratification Meeting at the City Hall Plaza Last Night.

The Bryan and Kern ratification meeting last night fully met all expec- tations unless the promoters of it had been too sanguine. It demonstrated for one thing that there were a few dem ocrats left in this community and that they have hopes of hearing something
 drop this falt They do not appear to believe \that it will be William Jen-
 nings Bryan. At least that was gath
 cred from the casual remarks of the speakers at the city hall plaza last night and the enthusiastic cheers of
 the audience. ....-..
 There was a good deal said about | special privileges" predatory wealth" and things like that and there were eulogies of MT. Bryan which would have seemed l;ke wild or loose talk on the street corner or in serious con vcrsation. but such things are ncces- sarily a ,oart of a ratification meeting If, on such occasions, the orators would talk soberly thCv would seem like very tame affairs and hardly worth having at all
 The attendance was mainly from Maricopa countv; if there were any from an outside county, they just hap pcned to he here. None of the emi- nent democrats from Pima, Yavapai, Cochise, Graham or elsewhere were present to take part in the speaking but telegrams of mingled conSratula- tiOns were read from the stand. It may have been accidental rather than design, and probably was. that Mark Smiths namc appeared at the end of the list of the rcGrettors.
 The southside furnished the largest contingent outside of Phoenix. The special train from Mesa and Tempe ar irving here at 7:A5 was laden to -Hs capacity and it was met at the depot by a large escort party accompanied by the Pioneer and Industrial bands. After that there was a brief procession along pathway of red fire and amid a decent roar bc bombs and other eX- plosives ending at jne city hall plaza, 1vherc, when the proceedings began, perhaps 250O people were gathered.
 After number o- two by the bands, Assistant District Attorney Lyman eX- plafned to the multitude the purpose for which they had beeh brought to- gcthcr Though he was not formally on the list of speakers, nothing that he said about Mir. Bran could be con strucd as libclous. He first introduced Sheriff Hayden who is not only some thing os an orato-, but he had been at Denver during the cataclysm which resulted in the nomination of Bryan. ] He had been asked to tell what he saw

His Chances.

He was a humorist who lacked op portunity When it came to him he was wideawake and prepared.
 It came to him recently at the boarding house table.

 And why not, Mir. KnocklciSh2'

pared to send send to Mir. Bryan at the close of the festivities, informing him that he was first in the hearts of his countrymen in Maricopa county.
 In point ot numbers. in enthusiasm and in Oratory attentively listened to-, the ratification meeting was a success. There was only one flaw. Though it had been advertised as a Bryan and Kern meeting all mention of the vice presidential candidate was inadvert- cnt!y omitted.

This looked bad for Phoenix i but it was only a flash in the pan. for Warner, the Phoenix short caught an infield fly just before and re Deated the operation with the two 1 succeeding batters. It was rather an unusual play for the shortstop to catch three men out on flies in the first inning. Warner added four more flies to his string before the game twas over. There was nothing more doing that spelled anything in the way of sue cess for either side until the last of the sixth inning when Scott found Whitridge for a two bagger and lat CT scored. That was the only time the All Stars got their nose to the pie counter during the game. though they elbowed bravely toward it.
 In the seventh whitridGe, the Prescott pitcher. put the ball over the fence, making a home run and winning the game for Prescott. It went straight over center field by fifteen feet and was the first ball lever knocked over the fence since it was put back toward the horizon. and of course it brought him an ova- ton

The All Star baseball team and the Phoenix people generally got it in the neck again yesterday, the former because the Prescott Grays took the feather edge off their pride by a score of 2 to l and the latter because of their little faith.

PROTEST OF HILL
MADE BY EMPEROR
Objection to New American Am
bassador Results from Impress
sions Made on Prince Henry.

BERLIN, March 26.-The intinlation
from the German government that DR..
Dacid Jayne Hill was not regarded as
adapted to the post of American am
bassador to Germany appears to have
been made at the suggestion Of En-
peror William. His Majesty, during
the months that have elapsed since 1t
was announced in November that DR..
Hill would succeed Charlemagne Tower,
the present ambassador. received vari-
Gus Impressions adverse to DR.. Hill.
1t is difficult to trace the origin OF
these opinions. Some of them came
from members of the suite OF Prince
Henry, who saw much OF DR.. Hill dur
ing his visit to the United States six
years ago. and also later at The
Hague Conference. 1t is clear, how
ever. from inquiries made to-day that
the personal conviction grew up In the
Emperor's mind that DR.. Hill would not
adequately and agreeably represent the
United States at this court. Something
in the nature of a private and personal
message was then conveyed to Presi-
dent Roosevelt. No particular incident
seems to have taken place between DR..
flll ana IllllSc ilChA Nv 80 ~
however several happenings, each un-
important in itself. but which. taken
together, led to the forming of an un-
favorable estimate of DR.. Hill by Prince
Henry and his encourage. That such
an estimate was formed has been
known In Washington for long time,
but 1t presumably was not known at
the State Department.
Created u Sensation.
The sudden publicity given the Ger
man intimation that DR.. Hill would
not be received in Berlin has created
sensation in the diplomatic corps
where the disposition is to consider
that some one has committed an indts-
erection. There is difficulty In believing
that the matter could not have been
arranged in less direct way.
The foreign office o-day issued a
denial to the statement that official
action had been taken by the German
government on the proposal to send
DR.. Hill to the Berlin embassy. and the
papers Of Berlin published this com
munication.
1t is probable that the foreign office
either has not been informed by EN-
peror William of the message he sent &c
President Roosevelt, or else 1t is desir-
Gus of tranquilizing an unpleasant sit
uation by emphasizing the fact that
the German government has taken no
"offclal" step against DIR. Hill.
Replying to the question raised by
certain newspapers, which lntimated
that Chnrlemagne Tower was trying to
hold his place as ambassador and re-
main In Berlin, Mr.. Tower authorized
the statement that 1t Is his lnfleNible
determination to send his resignation
to tho President within few months
and to ask to be allowed to retire. so
that he may return to the United
States. t#t i.-sf t.s.i il.
