SOUTH CAROLINIAN
MUST WE'D INDIAN


ST. PAUL, Mimi, Feb. IA special
from Helena, Mont. says: Thomas Han
by, a former South Carolinian, was
made the recipient in the federal
court here Of what is regarded as the
most remarkable sentence on record.
Handy, convicted on a bigamy charge,
was not only fined 800 and sent to jail
for six months, but was also sentenced
to marry an Indian woman.
Hanby's first wife, learning OF his mar
rage to pretty Mary LaBrecka, a Black
foot maiden. secured his indictment, and
then a legal separation for herself. Be
cause of the first marriage the second
marriage was declared void.
Judge Hunt not only imposed the SEN
tence indicated, but instructed the United
States marshal to see that the marriage
was carried out Immediately and this was
done, a justice of the peace uniting the
couple. Handy made no protest.

WASHINGTON, Feb 1.-THE military
committee of the house yesterday after
noon voted to favorably report Repre-
sentative Livingstons bill deciding to the
commissioners Of Fulton county % feet of
the Fort Mcpherson reservation for the
purpose OF widening the East Point road
way.
The bill now takes its, place on the

ator Clay in the senate, will be consid-
cred and favorably reported this after
noon by the senate military committee,
so that the enactment of the law will be

opposition to the grant of the land will
develop in either house.

State Committee on Judiciary
Decides Salary Must First
Be Reduced from $4,000 to
$4,000 a Year.
SENATOR HALE'S BILL
is FREELY DISCUSSED
IN SPECIAL SESSION
1t May Be, However, That 1t Will Not
Be Possible To Repeal the Salary
Increase Provisions Recently
Passed.
BY Ralph Smith


WASHINGTON, Feb. u.-Senator Knox
is declared by the state committee on ju-
dietary to be eligible for appointment to
the Office of secretary of state in Mr.
Taft's cabinet, providing the salary OF
the office is reduced from $4,000 to 5000
a year, which was the salary of the office
prior to the action of congress in rails
ing it during Senator Knoxs present term
of office.
The committee on judiciary met today
in special session to consider the bill
introduced yesterday by Senator Hale.
The measure was discussed from the
point Of view that It might be regarded
as a subterfuge and a technical viola
ton Of the constitutional provision in
tended to prevent the creation of lucra-
tive positions for members Of congress.
Finally, It was decided by the committee
that the main proposition of the Hale
bill, which was to repeal the increase OF
salaries of cabinet members so far as 1t
referred to the secretary of state, was
sound. The phraseology of the bill, how
ever, met with criticism and it was de-
cided to draft a new measure, and Senator
Bacon was entrusted with its preparation.
The new bill, in accordance with the
views of the committee, uses the word
"emoluments' instead of salary" in or
der to be in harmony with the language of
the constitution.
1t developed during the session that the
committee was not unanimous in regard
to the question of whether It would be
possible to repeal the salary increase pro-
vision so as to make Senator Knox eligible
for the office. Senators Kittredge and
Overman seemed to be in some doubt as
to the propriety of taking this action, but
they will not make a minority report, and
1t is said they will not oppose the passage
OF the bill when II comes UP on the door
Of the senate.
The substitute for the Hale bill was in
troduced in the senat elate in the day by
Chairman Clark, Of the committee on
judiciary.

SAN FRANCISCO, Feb. 1.-THE trial

was postponed today until next Monday
on account OF the illness of Assistant
District Attorney Francis ]. Heney, who

is officially stated that the prosecutor S
condition is not in the least alarming,

ton of the throat because of the wound
inflicted when Mr.. Heney was shot and
seriously wounded in the court room by
an ex-convict.

MAY TAKE YEARS
TO FULLY PROBE
SECRET SERVICE
Sub Committee Makes Report
AS Preliminary Move and
Mildly Rebukes the President
for His Message.
By Ralph Smith

WASHINGTON, Feb. 1.-THE report OF
the senate subcommittee on the secret
service. which contains mild rebuke Tor
the president. is only preliminary incl
dent to the real purpose OF the commit
tee. provided the appropriations commit
tee authorizes IL TO continue its prooe,
and there is little doubt upon this sub
ject.
Senator Hemingway, of Indiana, chair
man of the subcommittee, will require
from the senate on March 4th, Dut ne
will be retained as counsel to push the
Investigation, which it may be stated VIII
be the most searching, thorough and sys-
tematic ever undertaken by the United
States senate.
Hundreds of witnesses will be summon
ed to appear before the investigating com
mittee and the work will continue TOT
months. maybe years, before II is finally
concluded. And all the while the pubic
will from time to time be given informa-
ton as to the disclosures. which II is De-
lieved will disabuse the general impress
sion that Mr.. Roosevelt has been right IN
his row with congress over the secret
service
Charges Are Ready
The charges made by L. S. Williams, OF
Arizona, against the secret service, whlch
have been detailed in The Journal are
more sensational aAN :
scores Of similar charges laid peIore the
investigating committee.
The williams charges and all otners
will be investigated carefully, witnesses
being called to give evidence. Williams
Is still I'm Washington, and Is dehghteo
at the prospects Of appearing as Wit
ress. He intimates that he can tell many
things detrimental to the secret service
Of the government.
The committee will call upon every de-
partment Of the government that mas
made use Of secret service agents Tor an
itemized statement Of the expenses IN
Cured. the identity Of individuals re-
ceiving the money the purpose for which
he was employed. the nature OF MS &C
complishments, incidental expenses etc
AS the preliminary report shows the
secret service cost the government last
year twenty-four million dollars, four
million more than ever before in his
tory. and President Roosevelts complaint
in his message was not justified by the
fact
The committee In the preliminary re-
ports makes little effort to account for
how the money was expended, but the
subsequent inquiry viii develop this, and
the country will be informbed as TO the
exact nature of the work undertaken by
the detective corps.
Persons familiar with the situation de-
clare that the work has just begun ana
that q series Of sensations extending over
g long period and all rejecting more or
less upon President Roosevelt will follow.

the sanitarium will make no pretentious
start; that the preferred course will be
to apply the limited funds the sanitarium
can count on to promulgating through
the state clearer conception of the dam
gers of the white plague and of the ready
response that 1t gives to intelligent treat
ment.
Dr. Westmoreland, addressing the infor-
NAL meeting, expressed his belief that the
board should first of all purchase cen
trally located tract of land where 1t could
maintain a small sanitarium of limited
accommodations for the treatment OF
temporary patients, and that with this to
go on for the first year or so, till the
board is able to clearly demonstrate good
results that will have their rehexive er-
feet upon members of the legislature
the sanitarium should be content IN
other words, advocated DIR. Westmore-
land, the sanitarium. should for time be
maintained principally as center OF pup
ncity and education rather than as
pretentious structure for the immediate
accommodation of a great number OF pa
tients. Coordinate units with this central
establishment, said DR.. Westmoreland'
might be established progressively IN the
counties of the state.
1.-THE funds that you have won't equip
a large sanitarium," said DR.. Westmore-
land, in conclusion.
Funds Available
Under the act No. 476. that created the
aanitarillm at the last session or the leg
islature $751; 900 was appropriated TO pc
made available yearly as follows: SI'VVo
for the year 1905; $4,000 for the year
1909, and $1,000 for the year 1870
DR.. George Brown Endorsed the views
of Dr. Westmoreland that the working
sppropriation of the sanitarium each year
will be small, and that the best general
sanitarium that could be built could &C
commodate only a few permanent pa
tients and would cause dissatisfaction
among a great many who could not Sc
cure admission, would therefore probably
do more harm than good In the way or
education, and that for all those reasons
the sanitarium should not for the pres
ent 1t least be designed to accommo~
date more than a few temporary pa
tients at a time. After few years. said
DR.. Brown, the board could build its per-
manent sanitarium.
At II O'Clock the board moved to room
SO6 and began it's formal session.
Dr. George Brown, of the Pine Ridge
sanitarium near Atlanta. invited the en-
tire board to accompany him on a tour
OF inspection Of that institution Thursday
afternoon. Those members who were not
leaving for home Immediately after the
meeting, accepted.
DR. Westmoreland promised the cooper
alton OF the state board of health and ali
the assistance possible until the new board
Of directors gets thoroughly established
