SENATE USES DAY
IN JUST TALKING
Not a Vote Taken on a Single
Paragraph of Pending
Tariff Measure.
LUMBER DUTIES MAIN
OBJECT OF CONTROVERSY
Characteristic Attitude of Pro-
lection for Industries of Ger
tain Sections Manifest.

WASHINGTON, May 22.-By special
agreement, the senate took no votes
today on any subject, and the entire
session was devoted to speechmaklng.
The lumber schedule was under discus
sion during the greater part of the day.
and the controversy between the free
lumber advocates and the high tariff
opponents was sharp.
Senator McCumber introduced the
subject by presenting an amendment
providing for free lumber, and he was
on the floor several times during the
day in support Of this provision. He
contendcd that the American forests
were being rapidly depleted, and urged
that every encouragement should be
given to the importation of lumber for
the protection of our own supply.
On the other hand. Senators 'Elklns
Scott and Hepburn, all of them repre-
senting lumber producing constitu'
cncies, contended strenuously for a
higher duty than is allowed by the
theory that the American lumber sup.
ply is rapidly diminishing.
Once more the senate placed On rec
ord its determination not TO undertake
other legislation while the tariff bill
is pending. This action was taken in
opposition to an effort on the part OF
Senator Burton, former chairman of the
house committee on rivers and harbors
and now member of the senate com
mittee on commerce, to have extended
appropriations made for the country s
WATERWAYS.

istered mail pouches.
The exact amount IN the sacks Sc

lieved to have contained large sum,
The robbers evidently got on the train
at some town west of here, The hold
up occurred about five miles west of
the city limits in deep cut along the
recently constructed Lane cutoff.
The robbers climbed over the tank
and forced the engineer TO stop his
train, and then proceeded to the mail
car. The clerks were forced to open
the door and hand out number of
pouches of registered mail.
Quickly Make Escape
Once they secured the bags they bur-
ried away in southerly direction and
permitted the train to proceed. The
passengers were not molestcd, and as

the hodup the train came TO this city,
a big squad Of police hurried to the
scene and quickly started in pursuit
Of the bandits.
The train was detained but fifteen
minutes, and left Omaha for Chicago
on time. The robbery occurred within
\ mile of the city limits. Two of the
robbers climbed into the engine with
drawn royolvers and forced the en-
gineer TO stop the tram The engine
crew was ordered out of the cab and
two OF the robbers stood guard while
ihe other two escorted the engineer and
fireman to the rear. The quartette
were apparently we'll acquainted with
the ground. as they forced tho train to
stop in deep cut.
Mail Clerks Helpless.
There were eight clerks in The mail
car and they were forced TO open the
door, The chief clerk was singled out
and asked TO point out the registered

gathered up seven pouches. The leader
