TILLMAN MAY GUST CRUM.
Plans Filibuster to Prevent Confir-
nation of Negro Collector Of
Charleston Port.

Washington, January 29.-If Sena-
tor Tillman so manipulate matters
that he can get the floor of the senate
in executive session and hold it until
tie close Of the present session of
congress, he may defeat the nominal
ion of ". D. Cram as collector of the
port Of Charleston.
Mayor Rhett and 7. Il. Warne
reached Washington this morning,
and Immediately called on Senator
Tillman about this matter. They re-
manned with him some time and care
fully went over many features Of the
case. They came to Washington in
response to a telegram that Senator
Tillman sent Mr.. Rhett yesterday up
on learning that the senate committee
charged with the duty Of handling the
nomination had decided to make a
favorable report on it.
After seeing the Senator, Mr.. Rhett
said that he and Mr.. Waring had
come to Washington upon receiving
the telegram referred to because they
believed they could accomplish more

They returned home this afternoon,

the nomination in check until the
present session of congress ends,
Judge Taft may not reappoint Crum,
but he will have a Herculean task IN
doing so. He must have aid for any
"fillibuster that he might inaugu-
rate in order to get the floor Of the
senate in executive session and hold it
uIt;;l March I.
Just who would be relied upon in
the event that this method of proce-
dare were adopted is not now known,
though it is probable that practically
all of the Democrats in the senate
would render more or less help in the
matter. At the same time Senator
Tillman would have to oppose the
strong Republican majority Of the
senate, and it might not be possible,
after all, to achieve the desired re-
suit. It is understood that Senator
Frye, of Maine, is one OF these who
are insistent upon pushing the nomi-
nation, aided by other Republicans of
influence. As soon as Mayor Rhett
reaches home he will supply Senator
T!llman with the material that he
latter proposes to use in blocking the
confirmation.

TAFT Wins PLAUDlTS of

Prescott, Ariz.. Oct. 13-Presideat
Taft won hearty welcome into Ar
iona today. by proclaiming where
ever he went that he was heartily in
favor of statehood for each Of the
territories of Arizona and New Next
co.
When the joyousness that greeted
this statement had died away, Taft
had some somber words for his audi
ence in which he sought to impress
upon them the necessity for deliber-
alton in framing state constitution.
He declared that their constitution
should follow the simplicity Of the
constitution of the United States and
should merely be fundamental laws
with simple rules of limitations.
Mr.. Taft urged the people Of Arizona
to profit by what he termed "The
mistakes of Oklahoma IN constitu-
ton making. He characterized Ok
lahoma's constitution as geological
garden of cranks." -. % - Il s.'..

Jamestown, Oct. 13.-The Northern

The run from Jamestown to Fargo
