ance of his duty and with the view
of providing a pension for herself and
orphan children the legislature passed

solution directing her employment as
q deputy.
Acting under an opinion by the at
torney general, VI whom the matter
had been referred as to it's legality
the auditor refused to draw a war
rant. Hence the application for a
writ of mardamus, with. the result
stated.

ed a writ of mandamus directed tc
A. N. Yoder. secretary of state, re-
quiring him to file an amended GER
tificate of the Cascade bank of Great
Falls, showing an increase of capital
stock and extending the term of its
corporate existence. 1t is held that
the institution has complied with the
statutes in force. The bank, of course,
must pay the necessary filing fees.

Special to The Daily Missoulian.
Butte, June, THE safe in Scandal
Hall bar was blown to pieces shortly
before 8 o'clock this morning and $500
in money secured That the work was
done by professional safe crackers
there is no doubt, as clean job
was made with the use of nitroglycer-
inc, the money secured and the rob-
bers made their escape by means of
saddle horses without even the slight
est clue to their identity. This in
spite of the fact that not more than
five minutes could have elapsed from
the time the report of the explosion
was heard until there were people in
the streets from two blocks around.
That the robbers made IA complete
survey Of the premises and had their
plans well laid before undertaking the
job is shown by the systematic man
ner in which they performed their
work. They gained an entrance to the
bar by removing the transom from
the rear door. Tom Clark, man
who is alleged to be one of the most
noted safe crackers in the west, was
arrested by Chief Jack unn before
noon today on south Wyoming street
and booked at the city Jail on a
charge of vagrancy. Clark is we'll
known in this city and recently was
given a suspended sentence in the
police court. He departed for Mis-
soula and his first appearance in this
city since that time is said to have
been yesterday. Clark is a man with
only one arm. Deputies have been
securing the hills in all directions all
day long but no clue has been Sc
cured.

ED CONTEST.
AMENDMENT VOTED DOWN
Delivers Amendment to Strike Out
Committee Report Placing a Duty
of One Cent per Square Yard for the
Process Of Mercerization Is Lost by
an Unusually Close Vote.

Washington, June THE senate
chamber was again today the scene
of lively contest. Senator Aldrch,
leading the conservatives, and Senator
Beveridge, heading the progressives,
did most Of the talking. Both SEN
ators were frequently on their feet
and there were many sharp conflicts
between them. Beginning tho session
with a vote on the recommendation
of his committee for a duty of cents
square yard and 20 per cent ad
valorcm on the fabric known as Win
dow hollands, Senator Aldrich was
apparently somewhat encouraged over
the prospect of making decided head
way With the cotton schedule. His
hopes, however, We're doomed to dis
appointment, for only a few moments
afterWard Mr.. Beverdge took the
floor and before he concluded he had
opened such a gap that the Rhode
Island senator himself could not re-
sist the opportunity to walk in. MI
Beveridge, having said he had been
inclined to support the recommended
tiOns of the finance committee, the
admission led the chairman Of the
committee to say the Indiana senator
had not shown such inclination by
his vote.

Joint Deb ate.

Joint Debate.
From that time forward the two
senators were engaged in joint de-
bate much of the time during the day.
In the course of his remarks, Mr..
Aldrich, while contending that many
prohibitive tariffs were justified, said
he never had favored a prohibitive
policy. He predicted that in time the
south would become the greatest
manufacturer of the finer grades of
cotton goods. Replying, Senator Bacon
declared that il even such should
prove to be true, he would not favor
any increase Of the customs duties.
About the middle of the afternoon
the senate reached it's second vote,
which was on an amendment by Sem
ator Doliver, to strike out of the
committee report a provision fixing a
duty OF / cent square yard for the
process of merceriZatiOn. The amend
ment was lost by the unusually close
vote of 80 to 3S. The narrowing of
the margin was, however, due to the
absence of senators rather than to
the conversion of the progressives |.
the Aldrich standard.
Aldrich found occasion again to chal-
lenge the attitude of some of the re-
publican senators who We're contend
ing for lower duties. He charged
them with playing the part of brig
adler for the democrats and speaking
of Senator Beveridge, declared he had
associated with the democrats for so
long that he was adopting their IDEAS
He characterized Mr.. Beveridge as the
leader of the opposition.
Make Replies.
Both Senators Beveridge and Cum
Minis replied, the former asserting
that he was standing on the repub-
lican platform while the latter stated
he had SO often been charged with be-
ing a democrat that the charge did
not worry him.
During the day Senator Smith
(Mich) found occasion to attack the
position of Secretary MacVeagh as
the mouthpiece of the administration
on the tariff situation. He intmated
that he did not consider the second
member of the presidents cabinet a
reliable leader on this subject be-
cause of his former democratic proc
livities. The progressive republicans
gained a concession from the finance
committee in the removal of rubber
goods from the cotton schedule, thus
preventing the imposition of duty
