Washington, April 6.-One of the

legislature asking for duty on long

exclaimed, and no haWkers and Opin.

Believing that Mr.. Clark's remarks
about populism applied to him, Mr..
Randell denied that any populism
was connected with his record. Did
you intend for this house and the
country to understand that the de-
mocracy is in any way affiliated with
populism?" asked Mr.. Randen.
Eve don't intend" retorted Mr.
Clark, so far as l am concerned, and
l believe the people l represent, to
follow your Nebraska popuIist leader
any more"
Does the gentleman stand with the
New Jersey democrat who thinks that
Bryan knew too much of the deca-
lOgue to be president Of the United
States?" propounded Mr.. Randen.
Southern democracy" responded
Mr.. Clark, never made a greater mis-
take than when it turned its back on
its democratic friends in the east
whom it has driven from the party
and tied up with populism out in Ne
braSka"
Mr.. Randell declared that Mr..
Bryan needed no defense at his hands,
and asked Mr. Clark if he was a CIeve-
land demOacrat on the tariff, and if
he stood for the doctrine of free raw
materials.
Il am just a plain, old fashioned
democrat" drawIed Mr.. Clark, amid
laughter. He declared that he was
sick and tired of hearing my south
ern colleagues talk of the poor men
of the south"
Have you no cOnVictions?" asked
Mr.. Finley of South Carolina.
Il have" responded Mr. Clark mo

nothing but a short bale Of cotton, a

ThunderOus applause on the repub-
lican side interrupted Mr.. Clark. and
when quiet was restored, he conttn-
ued:

PIONEER CLOWN
IS DEAD IN IOWA

Council Bluffs, Ia, April There
died in this city a few days ago a
man, Captain George W. Crane, by
name, who was one of the frs known
circus clowns in America, and people
who today recall their first circus ex-
perience, back in the days when Van
Amberg's road show was the finest
aggregation of the kind in the world
will have occasion to remember Cap
tain Crane
Captain Crane was proud OF his
achievements in the sawdust ring and
long after his retirement from the
profession enjoyed relating some of
his many experiences. He was popu-
lar as a story teller In which he was
especially gifted, and he was known
as well for his qualities as an en-
teTtaineT as for his many other gifts
Captain Crane retained his wide ac-
quaintance with circus people and
among the theatrical profession mum
bered many friends.
After retiring from the business OF
entering the public Captain Crane
engaged in the insurance business.
During his early years in Iowa he was
associated with the United States Ma
sonic Benevolent association and for
several years he was district agent
for the concern. With this begin
ming he acquired a large insurance
clientele and became widely known
throughout the state A son, George
J. Crane, Jr.. resides at OskaIoosa.

CRAZY SNAKE UNCAPTURED-RE-

Pierce, Okla, April 2-CTazy
Snake, leader of the Greek renegades,
was not captured yesterday, neither
did he respond to the widely distrib-
uted invitation to surrender. All civ
ilians have given up the hunt, Ieay-
ing the task to the first regiment OF
the Oklahoma militia.
Colonel Hoffman yesterday had an
extended interview with Crazy
Snakes sister at the chiefs former
home. She convinced Hoffman that
she knew nothing of her brothers
whereabouts, but was advised that
unless he surrendered within "a
hours a reward would be offered tor
him dead or alive. There is small
probability that this threat will have
any influence upon Crazy Snake, who
is likely to remain in hiding until
public excitement shall have sub
sided completely.

Washington, April 3.-The discus
sion of the tariff bill took in prac-
tically all its provisions, free hides
and wood pulp occupying a conspicu-
Gus place, although there were sew
eral general assaults on the measure
from the democratic side. Again two
democrats from the far south stood
Numerically opposed to each other
on the same schedule. Mr.. Sparkman
of Florida urging the DingIey rates
on lumber while Mr.. Humphreys Of
Mississippi advocated placing 1t on
the free list The republicans who
spoke were practically unanimous
for free hides. Taxes on the neces-
saries Of life came in for their usual
share Of criticism from both sides of
the chamber.
