BILL FINALLY PASSED.
Debate Lasted the Entire Day and
Was Somewhat Exciting.
CBy Associated Press.)

Washington. Feb. 26.-After an entire
day devoted to discussing the forestry
provision of the agricultural appropria-
ton bill the senate tonight passed the
measure.
The senate rejected the increase of
100000 in the appropriation for the for
estry service, as recommended by the
committee, and then a curious paTlia-
mentary situation arose. Mr.. Hepburn
had offered an amendment directing the
secretary of agriculture to eliminate
from all forest reserves the public lands
not timbered, and to restore such public
lands to location and purchase under
the land laws of the United States. and
the amendment had been accepted by
Senator Warren, in charge of the bill.
When the amendment was laid be-
fore the senate, Mr.. Flint of California
made point of order against it, which
was sustained by the vice president.
'If I had known that the amendment
would not be voted on, I would have
never concurred to the unanimous con-
sent agreement" declared Mr.. Hepburn.
The vice president then put the ques-
ton to the senate, which declared the
amendment out of order

work There has been a state of terror

MRS. TEAL GETS
YEAR IN PRISON
Convicted of Attempted Subor-
nation of Perjury in the
Gould Case.

New York.sFeb. 26.-Mrs. Margaret Teal
wife of Benjamin Teal, one of the best
known theatrical managers in this coun-
try, was today convicted of attempted sub
ornation of perjury in the divorce case
of Helen Kelley-Gould-agai Frank j.
Gould. Mrs. Teal was sentenced to serve
one year in the penitentiary on Black
well island.
As the verdict of the jury was pro-
nOunced Mrs. Teal sank to her knees and
was lifted to chair by attendants. She
then buried her face in her muff. One
of the jurors was weeping as the verdict
was rendered and the sentence imposed.
All the jurors signed a recommendation
for Clemency.
Judge Foster, in sentencing Mrs. Teal,
said he would not add to her suffering
by referring to her record, with which he
said the district attorney had acquainted
him. The judge said that he had been
greatly impressed by the touching bear
ing Of Mr.. Teal, who had sat beside his
wife throughout the trial Counsel for
Mrs. Teat said he would apply for q GER
tificste of reasonable doubt and endeavor
to obtain her freedom on bail.
This has been the mistake of gar
rulous woman and lacks the interest that
usually appears in cases of this Kind,
said the counsel.
Mrs Teal was indicted last year Jointly
with Mrs. Julia Fleming Cor Julia Nc
Cabe). and Harry s. Mousley, a private
detective. They were charged with at
tempting by offers Of money to induce
Mabel McCauslan, a mIlliners apprentice.
to give false evidence against Frank Gould
in the divorce case.
Mrs Fleming and Mousley turned state $
evidence A pathetic feature of Mrs.
TeaTs case is that she is the mother of a
child but 10 months old.

preparation bill, carrying $751;, Ooo. GOO,

many material amendments. The de-
bate at times was very warm.
A rule brought in by Mr.. Dalzen,
making it in order for a majority to
pass a bill under suspension of the
rules. instead of two-thirds, aroused
the Democrats under the leadership of
Mr.. Williams to criticise the appropria-
ton committee for not affOTding, as
was charged, more time to study supply
bills. This led to an incipient flibus-
ter.
A resolution was adopted appointing
a committee of five to report whether
or not the remarks of Mr.. Cook of Col
erado. delivered yesterday, attacking
the president, should be expunged from
the record.
The ship subsidy bill was reported,

LONG AND AcRID DEBATE.
Democrats FilibusteTed and Mr..
Tawney Was Greatly Annoyed.

Washington. Feb. 26.-All records for
the Sixtieth congress were broken by
the house session, which ended at 1921
o'clock this morning, having extended
over a period of sixteen and a half
hours.
Efforts of the house leaders to rush
through all the important appropria-
ton bills in the closing hours of the
session, which terminates next Thurs
day at noon. together with the obstruc-
tons placed in their way by the Demo-
Gratis, probably will necessitate long
night sessions on every one of the five
remaining days.
When the house met today at II
o'clock, Chairman Tawney of the APP
preparation committee renewed his at
tempt to secure the passage of the
sundry civil appropriation bill, which
he had hoped to get through before re-
cess was taken early this morning. The
Democratic filibuster inaugurated last
night greatly irTitated Mr.. Tawney, and
the result was frequent clashes between
him and members on the opposite side
of the chamber.

Blood Stains on Mattress.

The family occupied a single bedroom,
the mother and two children occupying
one bed and the oldest boy and girl sleep
ing in a second bed on the opposite side
of the room. The charred bodies were
found in the exact position that each was
accustomed to occupy in bed and the half
consumed mattress on which Mrs, Beck
man slept was covered with what appears
to be blood stains. The cotton in the mat
tress has been placed in the hands of
chemist for analysis.
The fire was first seen by neighbors
about 2:30 and the first men to appear on
the premises found the house a mass of
flames, but looking through the burning
boards the bodies could be seen on the
beds lying apparently in natural posi-
tons. Coroner McGinn and Sheriff KEEL
ley were early upon the scene and care
full examination of the premises was made.
No clues developed that might be of help
in uncovering the mystery.
