KNOX MAY NOT BE ELIGIBLE
Question Arises as to Whether He
Can Accept Position Of Score.
tary Of State.

Washington, Feb. l0.-Much discus.
sion has been aroused over a question
raised as to whether Senator Philan.
der c. Knox OF Pennsylvania, who has
been selected to be secretary of state
In the Taft cabinet, is eligible under
the constitution of the United States
TO accept ne office.
Attention has been called to Sec
tlon VI, Article ! Of the the constitu.
tion, which reads as follows:
mo senator or representative
shall during the time for which he
was elected, be appointed to any civil
office under the authority of the
United States which shall have been
created, or the emoluments whereof
shall have been increased during
such time"
During Mr.. Knox's present term as
senator the salaries Of all cabinet of.
flcers were increased from $4,000 to
$4,000 q year. AS the term of Sena-
tor Knox does not expire until March
3, 1911. two years after the time
when his name would be sent by Mr.
Taft to the senate for confirmation.
the question Is asked il Mr.. Knox will
be able constltutionally to accept the
state portfolio.
The only precedent recalled In a
similar case was that of the late Sen.
ator Ransom of North Carolina, who
was appointed by President Cleve-
land to be minister to Mexico, the
emoluments of which Office we're
raised while Mr.. Ransom was a mem
Der of the senate. Under the decision
rendered by the comptroller of the
treasury II was held that Senator
Ransom could not become minister TO
Mexico.

BIG ROW IN AN
IRISH CONCLAVE
CONVENTION or UNITED LEAGUE
AT DUBLIN WAS THE SCENE
OF WILD TuMuLT.

A Member Of Parliament from Cork
Tried to Assault Mr.. Redmond
Priests and Legislators
in the Fray.

Dublin, Feb. l0.-That John Red.
mond holds undiminished control of
his party and while steadfastly ad.
herring to the policy of strict inde'
pendence with regard to the English
political parties, declines to counte'
nance any hampering of the Liberal
leaders by harassing tactics, was
proved at yesterdays exciting session
Of the United Irish league convention,
The minority, headed by William
O'Brien, In advocating a policy Of
frank hostility toward the Liberals
had very bad reception. Their
speeches we're shouted down, and all
Mr.. Redmond's efforts failed to secure
a respectful hearing, even for Mr..
O'Brien himself. The latter's speech
was continually interrupted until,
overcome by physical exhaustion, he
was obliged TO quit the scene. Angry
feeling was displayed and finally led
to unseemly rowdyism which cub
minated in a free fight on the plat
form and nearly brought the conven
tion to an abrupt and untimely con
clusion.
During the controversy Eugene
Cream, member Of parliament from
Cork, rushed to the platform, appar
emily with the intention of assaultinl
Mr. Redmond. He was suppressed
and hustled away, however. Then fol
a few moments the platform became
a seething mass of angry disputants
Priests and legislators rushed int
the fray and tugge0 at one another'i
collars, while the remainder of the
audience yelled. cheered and shouted
encouragement to the disputants.
Resolutions offered by the follow
ers of Mr. Redmond in favor of home
rule and Secretary Birrell's land bill
and expressing confidence In Mr.. Red
mond's leadership were carried b!
Overwhelming majorities.

INDICTMENTS OF
Y T|NBER THIEVES
ARE REPORTED nv FEDERAL
GRAND JURY IN SESSION AT
MusKooEE, OKLA.
THE NAMES ARE KEPT SECRET
Representatives Of Corporations are
Alleged to Have Stolen Millions
Of Dollars Worth Of Timber
from Indian Lands.

Muskogee, Okla, Feb. 10.-Indict
ments against 20 representatives OF
corporations, charging them with
stealing timber from segregated In
dian lands in Oklahoma were re
turned by the federal grand Jury yes
terday. An additional indictment was
returned against one person for i'm
personating a United States officer in
furtherance OF the scheme Of alleged
timber thieves The alleged thefts
occurred chiefly In the Choctaw
Chickasaw and Seminole nations.
Judge Campbell issued strict orders
that no names of the Indicted per.
sons be given out. until after they
have been arrested. United States
Marshal Grant Victor has sent ten
deputies on southbound train to ar.
rest the indicted persons, who reside
chiefly in Lehore, McCurtain and
Choctaw counties.
For years the government has been
harassed by alleged timber thieves
said to represent corporations capi,
talized in the east. II is alleged that
they have been stealing from segre
gated Indian lands on the Sugar
Loaf, Backbone, Winding Stair and
other mountains millions OF dollars
worth Of pine, walnut, oak and other
valuable timber. It has been the Gus
tom of the timber thieves to admit
their guilt and to pay certain amounts
into the treasury of the Indian
agency in lieu of the value of the
timber stolen. Then the thieves
would promise not to commit any
more depredations upon the forests
only to forget their promise, and
there has been a continual repetition
of the offense for years. Finally
United States District Attorney w. j
Gregg sought indictments Govern
ment inspectors have spent months

HARD SHEDDING
IN THE SENATE
FOR THE CANADIAN BOUNDARY
WATERWAYS TREATY RE-
GENTLY DRAFTED.
"a MICHIGAN MAN FIGHTS II
Senator Smith Declares that the
Treaty was Prepared by New
York Lawyer In the Interest
Of Certain Corporations.

Washington, Feb 10.--The Cana
dian boundary waterways treaty had
anything but smooth sailing when II
was taken up In executive session OF
the senate yesterday Senator VII
liam Alden Smith Of Michigan, who
has opposed the treaty ever since II
was reported, on the ground that II
does not sufficiently protect the inter
ests of his state in the waters OF ST,
Mary's river locked horns with Sena'
tor Lodge of Massachusetts,, who had
intimated that the Michigan senator
did not understand the provisions OF
the treaty.
Soon after the doors we're closed
and II became so apparent that the
nomination Of w. d. Crum, colored, to
he collector of customs at Charleston,
s. c., could not be confirmed that
Senator Frye withdrew II, the Cana.
dian treaty was taken up. Senator
Lodge, who had It In charge, asserted
that the foreign relations committee
had considered the treaty since II
was before the senate several days
ago and had received from the state
department information which he be.
lieved answered all Of the criticisms
that had been made by Senator
Smith.
Mr.. Smith did not agree with Mr..
Lodge and declared that further in.
vestigation by him Of the provisions
of the treaty proved his contention
that sovereign rights of the state of
hU
visions of the treaty and given TO
Canada.
He asserted that the treaty had not
been prepared by eX-Secretary Root,
but that il was the work of Chanler
Anderson, a New York lawyer, who
has been engaged by the state depart
ment on various occasions in connec.
tion with treaties affecting the rela-
tions of this country and Canada. Mr..
Smith intimated that Mr. Anderson
was too close to the interests which
control power rights at Niagara Falls,
and declared that the whole treaty
was prepared for the purpose OF
quieting the titles OF New York cor
poTations to those rights.
The two senators exchanged sharp
comments upon each others under
standing OF a recent conversation.
Turning to Mr.. Lodge and declaiming
in a way that amused his colleagues,
Mr.. Smith told the Massachusetts, sen
ator that he did not like his looks
his scowl, nor his irritating manner.
Senator Tillman interrupted with
the remark that he hoped Massachu-
sets and Michigan would clinch, but
he supposed there were "too many
centuries of culture in the Massachu-
setts member TO permit of anything
30 commonplace"
''If they would only get together, "
said Mr.. Tillman, referring to his en-
counter in the senate few years ago
with his then colleague, Mr.. Nc.
Laurin, 1T would detract from one
chapter OF my history which ! should
like TO put behind me-"
After a long debate consideration
Ras postponed until next Monday.
