lock, Woods add Wilson.
After they were locked in the vault
Woods and Wilson could hear Bullock
stroll around the bank and pick up
all the money he could find. He got
$50 In silver and nearly $500 in cur
rency. The robbery seemed to be an
afterthought as there was $4,000 in
the vault that he might have taken
before he locked it. He left the bank
closed the door and wandered uncon-
cernedly down the street. He cross
ed the river and went down to Fall
Leaf. two miles from here. where he
caught train for Lawrence, arriv-
ing there before the men were re-
leased from the vault here.
Nearly two hours after Wilson and
Woods were locked in the vault boy,
passing by the bank. heard their
shouts for help. Another officer of
the bank was notified and he let the
captives out.
Then He Went Back Home.
Woods at once telegraphed to Law

Lawrence were put into use, hut did

STATES ACTIONS
WITHOUT RESULTS
Passing Resolutions in Favor
of Constitutional Amend
e's. - -.
:. II: 4: !: ments Is Not Binding

Washington. Oct 15.-The action of
81 Of the sovereign States of the
union declaring for constitutional
convention to authorize the election
of senators by direct vote of the peo-
pie. and the possibility that Congress
may be confronted with a demand
tor such a convention. continues
to..sbe fruitful theme Of discussion
among public men.
There appears to be a unanimity
of opinion that there is no time limit
within which action must be had
after a state has passed the proper
resolution. Nor is there any dispute
over the power of a constitutional
convention to consider any and all
amendments that may be proposed.
The only question arising grows out
Of the. character Of the resolutions
as passed by the legislatures, and
that will bring the matter properly
before congress.
!: Gives Light on Subject.
On this subject, Hannis Taylor,
former minister to Spain, and we'll
known" as an authority on constitr-
honal law, talked entertainingly yes
terday. Assuming that the action of
the thirty-one states consisted Of
formal applications for the constitu-
honal convention, Mr.. Taylor said:
LET US begin with the text Of
article Of the constitution, which
provides:
"'The congress, whenever .wo-
thirds of both houses shall deem It
necessary, shall propose amendments
10 this constitution, or, on the appl;-
cation Of the legislatures of two-thirls
Of the several states. shall call a
convention for proposing amendments.
which. in either case, shall be valid
10 all intents and purposes, as part
Of this constitution, when ratified o.,
the legislatures of three-fourths Of
the several states, or by conventions
h three-fourths thereof, as one or the
bther mode of ratification may be pro-
posed by congress.
"The compromise embodied In tia.
article was peculiarly the work Of
Madison, whose motion was accelt,,,l
after it had been agreed that the
clauses in the constitution forming
special covenant with the south on
slavery should not be liable to change.
Cannot Control Proc ing.
"The text Of the article in question
makes 1t perfectly plain that congress
can exercise no authority or control
whatever over the process through
which the application of the Iegisla-
'ture Of two-thirds of the several states
: is made to 1t to call a convention for
proposing amendments
at is for the legislatures of the
states alone, through concerted &C.
ton, to make the call In auch manner
as they may deem best. AS congress
can nave no jurisdiction whatever
over the subject Of ca,lirs conven-
