Anti.cannon Outbreak.

Washington, May i0-For the want
of quorum the house took no action
on the presidents message recon-
mending remedial legislation for the
island of Porto Rico.
Speaker Cannon fought to have the
message referred to the committee on
ways and means, but an objection by
Mr.. Garrett of Tennessee, who wanted
it sent to the committee or insular
affairs, which has not been appointed,
opened the whole subject of house
rules. There being no such committee,
Speaker Cannon said that In suggest
ing the reference he did he had In
mind the present condition of the
house only. four committees having
been appointed, of which the commit
tee on insular affairs was not one.
A long argument ensued over rhe
right Of the speaker to override the
rules and ended with motion by Mr..
Garrett that the speaker be directed
forthwith to appoint a committee on
insular affairs to consider the mes
sage"
The vote disclosed out 1875 members
present, far short of quorum, where
upon the house adjourned with the
presidents message still on the speak

In the senate the message was re
ferred without discussion to the com
mittee on Porto Rico.

BIC TREAT FOR LEPERS
Moving Pictures Give Many at
Molokai First View OF World.
INTENSE INTEREST SHOWN.

Several Of the Unfortunate but Eager
Spectators Had Never Seen a City.
Result OF tho Contribution Of q Spe-
oial Fund to Buy a Machine.
One OF the most marvellous expert
ences In the history of the Molokat
leper settlement came to the people of
that sbut-in isolation a short time ago
when a moving picture machine was
installed In Beretania hall, their pub
lie place of assemblage, for their enter
tainment.
II was not merely that they saw
moving pictures for the first time. but
for the first time, to n very great num-
Der OF them II was their first glimpse
into the world beyond the narrow con-
fines of the settlement. Very many of
them had never seen city until they
saw those projected on the moving pie
ture screen. Elephants, camels, bears,
lions and the other animals Of the cir
Gus or the zoo were presented to them
for the first time. Fire engines, police
patrols. moving troops. the thousand
and one commonplaces of the picture
machine, came to them not only with
the force of novelty, but with the ef-
feet OF something unheard of and I'M
dreamed of before.
Some months ago at the suggestion
Of Superintendent McVeigh of the set
Element movement was started to
procure moving picture machine to
be sent to the settlement for the enter
tainment of the people there. A fund
was contributed the machine and a
supply OF films were bought, and X. X.
BONNIE. who has Travelled the world
over securing strange scenes for NOV
Ing picture exhibitions, volunteered to
go over and install the machine. This
he did, and the greatest interest In
the matter was felt at the settlement.
Every operation Of the process OF in
stalling the apparatus was watched by
nearly the whole population, and when
finally the first exhibition was given
wonder and excitement knew no
bounds.
In addition to the films that have
been provided by the donors for the
settlement, Mr.. BONNIE took large

there for the entertainment Of the peo-
pie. So intensely interested were they
that no amount of repetition of the pic
lures seemed to tire them. At their
earnest invitation Mr.. BONNIE decided
20 remain another week at the settle
ment to exhibit his own pictures often
enough so that every one in the settle
ment shall have opportunity to see
them and more thoroughly to instruct
some Of the lepers how to manipulate
the machine, so that there need be no
interruption in the regularity or fire.

leaves.
1t is expected that funds for new
films will be donated from time to
time by the public In Honolulu, so that
the people at the settlement will have
new moving pictures to look al ut in

his experience he has never seen such
absorbing interest in moving pictures
anywhere. - Honolulu Special Core

MEANT HER SUICIDE TALK.
Morphine Taken by Mrs. 6oyle-Take
Razor From Him,

Razor From Him.
Mercer, Pa, May 10.-The Boyles
contemplated suicide. all right.
Take Razor From Boyle.
That threats of a double suicide
made by Mrs. Boyle last night were
not mere idle words was shown today,
when 1t became known that a razor,
which had been secreted in his cloth
ing, was taken from Boyle today and
that Mrs. Boyle had taken what she
says enough morphine to kill two
people"
The morphine was taken between
midnight and daylight but had little
effect on the woman. In the cell i'd
joining Mrs. Boyle there is a woman
who is said to be addicted to the use
of morphine and who has ben supplied
with it during her Imprisonment. Mrs.
Boyle is said to have secured several
tablets from this woman and to have
swallowed them.
| She was rendered partly uncon-
scious during the night and was very
sick this morning. 1t is believed the
effect of the morphine caused her TO
collapse in the court room.
Fearing an attempt to carry out
their threats, Sheriff Chess had BOYLE
carefully searched before taking him
into court today. A razor was found
secreted in his necktie.
AS a further precaution Sheriff
Chess today took from Mrs. Boyle
three hat pins and removed all the
glasses she had in her CELL
Boyle told something today of the
murder in which he duplicates the
alleged third party TO the abduction.
1t was committed, he says, in Youngs-
town, Ohio, twelve and fourteen years
ago. He says a man by the name of
Weigel was with party of others on
the third floor of a house; that there
was some drinking and then a quarrel
during which Boyle alleges the third
man hurled or pushed Weigel from q
window to the pavement below. There
was an investigation and a verdict of
accidental death was returned.
| w. S. Anderson, counsel for Boyle
in the kidnapping case, lived at the
time at Youngstown and is said to
have made an investigation He said
accidental death was the only verdict
possible on the testimony presented
at that time. If Boyle has any new
testimony, his counsel says he did not
disclose it to them. His counsel stat
ed that if Boyle has letters from the
third party which would show the
payment of hush money in connection
with the murder, it might have had
some effect in the kidnapping case, and
If they can be produced now they may
serve to get him a new trial.
Only Fifteen Years If Good.
Pittsburg, May 10.-Mrs. Boyle, SEN
fenced at Mercer today to twenty-five
years in the penitentiary and to pay
fine of $4,000 and the costs of the
prosecution, may only serve fifteen
years. The usual allowance for good
behavior would reduce her time to fif-
teen years, and the fine will not have
to be served out.
