BILBO ASKED
TO RESIGN
State Legislature Does Not Believe
Senatorial Contest Should
be On.

JACKSON, Miss, April 15.-Some
definite action on the part of State
Senator Bilbo is expected today fol-
lowing the action of last night, when
a resolution was adopted asking for
his resignation. A resolution calling
for his expulsion was lost, but the res
olution asking that he resign was
carried by a big majority.
The action SO enraged the support
ers of Former Governor Vardaman
that many of them left the senate
chamber. The president pro TEN of
the senate resignued his position.
Another resolution was quickly put
through declaring it the sense of the
senate that the senatorial contest was
without proper cause, that the election
of Percy was free from fraud or cor
ruption and expressing confidence In
the senator's.

No Preparations Made at the Vienna
Hotel for the Arrival Today
Of Colonel
Roosevelt
E CAUSED BY BLUNDER
Reception Committee Attended t
Everything Excepting Securing
Quarters in the
Hotel.

VIENNA, April 15.-Through an er-
ror of some member of the reception
committee, Colonel Roosevelt was put
to an inconvenience at the hotel this
morning. Despite the fact that he
was the lion of the hour and had a
triumphant arrival and ride from the
station, absolutely no arrangements had
been made for him at the hotel. He
was provided with temporary quarters
in small room until the most luxuri-
Gus suite in the hotel was prepared
for him.
There was fine lot of confusion
in the ranks of the reception commit
tee when the mistake was discovered.
The United States consul and the for
mer Austrian consul each thought the
other was to make the arrangements.
The aged emperor, Franz Josef's au-
dience with Roosevelt at the palace
was the big function of the day. At
the church Roosevelt placei wreaths
upon the tombs of distinguished
dead, Empress Elizabeth and Crown
Prince Rudolph.
At o'clock the colonel received a
group of local newspaper men.

All of Central America is QuIvering
With Series of Earthquakes
Which Frighten the
People
BECOMING ALARMING
In One District the Ground Gave Bio
Yawn and Swallowed a
Score Of the
Houses.

COLON, April 15.--Reports reach
ed here from the interior saying that
towns have been wrecked and the
loss of life is thought to have been
heavy from the earthquake which has
shakes the whole of Central America.
The quakes continue today but are
not as violent as yesterday, The
cities of the interior have been prac-
tically deserted. At San Jose, the
capital of Costa Rica thousands have
left the town and camped in the in
terror. Relief expeditions have been
started to these points.
A dispatch from San Jose this
morning says the loss of life there
will be heavy. Port Limon makes the
same report and says the quakes are
getting more violent. The property
loss will be tremendous.
In the mountain towns west of the
capital the earth opened up and en-
quilted a score of houses. The gov
ernment has taken measures to re-
lieve the stricken district. Nearly all
telegraph wires are down.
SAN JOSE, Costa Rica. April 15.-
During the past forty hours the city
and surrounding country has expert
enced thirty successive earth shocks.
Everybody is abandoning the houses
and the population is panic stricken.
The losses so far are over S1,o00,00D.
No loss of life is reported.
The government ordered a suspen-
sion of business until safety is as
sured. The first shocks occurring
were slight. but became more violent
and even the staunchest buildings
were shaken to their foundations. In
several instances weaker buildings
were partially wrecked Communica-
tion is interrupted and the details of
damage are lacking.
Costa Rica is very mountainous.
with numerous volcanoes, some ac-
tive. San Jose. the capital, has a
population of $4,000.

Chinese Preparing to Prevent the

by Killing the
Foreigners
J BURNING THE BUILDINGS
Missionaries are In Danger From the
Fury of Ignorant Mob
Of Yellow
Heathen.

PEKIN, April 15--The governments
yaman at Changsha, where the mis-
sionaries of the Wesleyan China inland
mission were refuged from the native
mobs, was burned by the mob today.
The missionaries fed to one of the
merchant ships, where they are said
to be safe. The mob also forced the
abandonment of the British consulate
and the custom house. The situation
is serious and many foreigners have
taken refuge on the merchant ships.
1t Is probable that the stories Of
Halley's comet Ind something to do
with the natives unrest. In such
cases the natives always try to satisfy
the gods by the killing of foreigners.
The missionaries have several hum
dred converts and they are thought to
be in danger.
Two British gunboats have been
rushed to the scene to join the two
others already sent.

CHICAGO, April 15.--'It is agreed

was a remarkable plot in which the
woman wished to kill her husband af-

The affair was brought to the at
tention Of the police because of the
jealousy of a friend of Mrs. Kutrina.

pOSeu, as a matter OIL reldlldLlOn, TO
discredit my administration by forcing
me into contest for denomination
and by endeavoring to compass my
defeat. So far as | am aware no
republican convention ever held in
this state has declined either to en-
dorse the national administration or
our congressional delegation, and my
deliberate judgment is that If any
other course is pursued this year it
means certain defeat TO some of our
candidates for congress. no matter
who is nominated, the defeat of many
Legislative candidates and possibly the
defeat of part of the state ticket.
Il have been interested in the reci-
tation by Mr. Garst of some of the
legislation enacted In this state dur
! ing recent years. l have had the
pleasure of helping to put much of
this legislation to which he refers
upon our statute books and l have
4 spared no pains to see that those and
all other laws of the state are OBJ
served. ! am doersy interested in sec
ing other matters OF advanced legisla
| tion enacted.
"A few years ago we adopted in this
state an amendment providing for BIZ
ennial elections, ostensibly to avoid
such frequency of political contests.
We seem already to have forgotten
the spirit of the biennial amendment,
Likewise, we adopted primary cleo
ton law in order to give the people
an opportunity to declare their own
| choice of candidates. Mr.. Garst and
| submitted our claims to the people
and the choice was made. Under every
rule OF the party one contest for nomi-
nation to the Office of governor has
carried with it a denomination without
Opposition. 1t would seem, however,
that those most loud in proclaiming
| their loyalty to the primary law are
not Willing to be bound by its results
when measured by party precedent.
| In an endeayor to justify this disre-
gard of party custom it has been as
serted that l was candidate against
Mr.. Garst for second term and by
reason of this fact he is now justified
in being candidate against me. This
| is not true Mr.. Garst was never
nominated or elected to the Office of
governor and did not succeed to the
Office until the oath day of November,
three weeks after the date of my cleo
tion. The claim that he is candidate
for second term is far-fetched. He
has never yet had first term. He
simply succeeded to the Office by vir-
tue of being lieutenant governor and
served out the last fifty-one days of.
Governor Cummins term, This talk of
a second nomination for him is only
intended to befog the minds of the
voters who will not submit to the un-
precedented effort to deny a renomina-
tion to one regularly nominated and
elected to the office of governor.
The daily Gate City. [volume] (Keokuk, Iowa) 1855-1916, 1910-04-15
Meaning of Opposition.

what does this opposition mean?
Is II TIC be understood that hereafter
every candidate for governor shall be
compelled to fight for denomination?
If SO. when is the executive of the
state to be given any chance to per-
form official duties2 If this is to be
the rule it would be far better that the
law make the governor ineligible to
succeed himself, SO that when once
elected he will be assured of one
peaceful term in which to attend to
the states business.
when / came into office / decided
not to accept any speaking engage
ments that would interfere with of
fetal duties. | have adhered to this
rule and | believe the people of the
state generally will approve it. My
colleagues upon the executive council
and / have endeavored to conduct the
affairs of the state in business like
manner In determining the rate of
levy for state purposes we felt war
ranted in making a reduction of one
tenth of a mill in the levy for state

to give tne state O clean and economi-
cal administration, In order to do so.
