THREAT OF PAYNE
BR|NGSO OUT QUORUM
For the First Time in Many Days
Quorum Was Present When
Journal Was Read in the House
of Representatives.

WASHINGTON, June THE threat of
Majority Leader Payne last Thursday
that he would resort to measures to COM
pei the attendance of the members in the
house today unless a quorum was pres
ent, had the desired effect. Several more
than a quorum were in their seats when
the house was called to order.
Before the journal could be read, how
ever, Mr.. Macon, of Arkansas, following
the course pursued by him for some weeks
past, raised the point of no quorum. The
speaker counted 202 six more Ihan a
quorum. In the meantime three addition
al members announced their presence.
The speakers course was not at first sat-
isfactory to Mr.. Macon. who demanded
that the result be ascertained by telIers,
but he later withdrew the demand and
acquiesced in the speakers announce
ment.
Although general debate on the Porto
Rican bill had been exhausted, unani-
nous consent was given that it should
continue for two hours longer
AS soon as the bill was taken up Mr.
Payne admonished his colleagues that
they should remain throughout the day
and thus maintain the quorum which
had been obtained.
The pending question was an amend
ment by Mr.. Borland. of Missouri. lin
iting the operation of the proposed law

positie from Mr.. Olmsted, of Penn

ton, he was willing to support a
measure of tyranny for one year, for
that was better than anarchy"

MRS. TAFT HAS SAVED
LIFE OF PRISONER
President Was Not Favorably I'M
pressed Until Mrs. Taft Made
Plea

WASHINGTON, June Mrs. Taft has
saved the life of a man named Perovich,
convicted of murder in the first degree al
Fairbanks, Alaska, and sentenced to be
hanged. President Taft was not inclined
to interfere in the case, and the law would
probably have taken its course had he
not submitted the papers to Mrs. Tart.
She read them, and, touched by their
contents, added her plea for commute
ton of sentence.
Application for Communication of SEN
tence was submitted to the president
some time ago by Judge Wickersham,
the present delegate from Alaska. Pero-
vich had been tried and convicted while
VVickersham was United States judge in
Alaska and the appeal for Communication
was recommended by him. 1t was also
recommended by Attorney General Wick
ersham. But the intervention of Mrs.
Taft completely swayed the president
mind in favor of mercy and he commuted
Perovich's sentence to Imprisonment for
life.

His Reference to Beveridge-
Senator'S Get Very Personal On
the Floor.
nv Associated Prass.N


WASHINGTON, June THE senate
today resumed it's work Of revising the
tariff by sustaining the committee on
finance in it's mmenda tions by a
vote of Al to 26, Senator Foster and
Senator McEnery, as usual, voting with
the majority and nine Republicans,
Beverage, Bristow, Brown, Burkett,
Cummins, Dolliver Gamble, LaFollette
and Nelson, voting with the Democrats
This vote was taken on amendment to
levy a duty of cents a square yard
and 20 per cent ad valorem on cotton
window hollands.
This increase was opposed by Sena-
tor Dolliver, who declared that practi-
cally all of the cotton window hollands
used in this country are of domestic
manufacture, congress itself being one
of the few customers of the foreign
article as shown by the shades hang
ing about the senate.
Mr. Aldrich responded that up to
1890 the duty was as now recommended
by the committee, but said that under
a decision then rendered these articles
were placed under another rate of duty.
Mr.. Dolliver made his chief argument
against this increase after the adoption
of the amendment, as he said he had
had sufficient experience in the cold
world to see that II was just as well
to throw light on the subject after the
event as before"
A remark by Senator Beverage that
he was inclined to support the finance
committee called forth a sarcastic
reference by Mr.. Aldrich, who suggest
ed that the Indiana senator had not
been so inclined when the time HAD
arrived to vote, and added that "as time
progresses he may be able to vote with
the committee
Insisting that Senators should vote
according to their consciences, the In
diana senator, looking straight into the
eyes of his colleague from Rhode
Island, said he greatly regretted that he
had seen fit to make such a remark.
Meeting criticism by Mr. Beveridge, Mr..
Aldrich said he never had favored q prohibit
tive tariff and did not want one. Continuing,
he declared that the south was sure 10

Reviewing the interests or his state in the
tariff bill. Senator Bacon declared that ne was
not in favor of raising any Of the custom du-
ties This he said was in view of the tact
that Georgia was the first of the southern
states in the aggregate OF its manufacture.
Although the mills of his stare make soms

Quarrel Over Church
Cause of the Shooting

LEXINGTON, KY, June 1T is report
ed here that the immediate cause for the
shooting of ex-Sheriff Edward Callahan
was a dispute over the management of
church he built, and of which he is a
deacon at Crockettsville. After Callahan
was shot one of his friends rode on horse
back sixteen miles over mountain roads to
Jackson and telegraphed TO Lexington for
surgeons and bloodhounds. Captain v.
G. Mullikin has left here with his hounds
to trail the assassins.
Callahan was the chief lieutenant OF
Judge James Hargis, who was shot and
killed by his son, Beach Hargis, the lat
ter having received a life sentence in the
penitentiary for the murder. Judge Har-
gis. several years ago, appointed Gala
han sheriff of Breathitt county and the
enemies of the Hargis clan claimed that
they were being prosecuted.
Six years ago Attorney ]. B. Marcum
was shot and killed on the street near the
court house in Jackson. Callahan and
Hareis were arrested. Later the widow
of Marcum entered suit for damages in
the civil court. The death of Judge Har-
g.is had caused delay. Many of the mem
bers of the Hargis clan had removed
from Breathitt county, and it was beliey-
ed the feud had ended, but the attempt
ed assassination of Callahan shows 1t
has broken out afresh. Callahan suppos-
ed that he had recently made peace with
the Deatons and Smiths, his worst enc
mics.
Callahan's former wife was a Deaton
and she eloped with John Smith. Last
January a Deaton was shot and killed
from ambush near Callahan's home.

SCOUTS TO INSPECT
HIGHWAY ROUTES

Within the next few days it will be
definitely decided by the Broadway
Whitehall highway authorities of The
Journal and the New York Herald, just
when and how the survey that has been
decided upon will be made of the CAPT
tal-to-capital route and the Bristol, or
western route.
1t is quite probable that the capitalize
capital route will be the next that the
scout cars will run over. The Journal and
Herald scouts may start from Atlanta
and both go north, or the Herald party
may start again from New York and The
Journal party from Atlanta, the two meet
ing as they did recently on the middle
route In the latter event, 1t is yet in
determinate whether one car will return
over the road already traversed as an es-
cort of the other, or whether each will
go on through to the opposite terminus.
All details of further arrangements are
still under consideration by both papers
With the mass of information that each
has at hand the work of making those
arrangements and deciding upon those de-
tails is no small affair.
These plans that are now under way
contemplate the later survey of the Bris-
toll or western route. which will probably
be- run over in the came way as the
capital-to-capital route.
In the meantime, county authorities
would do well to put in good shape those
roads that they hope to contribute to the
big system of the highway. Observations
upon the roads as they find them are be-
ing made by the scouts, and while pledge
of betterment necessarily brings great
weight to bear in conclusions upon bad
stretches, still the system that as whole
offers the best facilities as it stands, will
be the one selected for the great high
way.
AS soon as the further surveys have
been made, the pathfnders will make
their run, establishing definitely the
course of the highway.

tribes some months ago, escaIed from
their guards while on way to this city
where the death sentence pronounced was

the night they eluded their guards and

patrols were sent out to follow their tran
and these are still in chase of the fugi-
