The senate and house conferees soon
will meet in an effort to agree on the
publicity amendment in which the
views of both branches will be har-
monized.
Just before the subject was disposed
of Fitzgerald of New York attempted
to get a direct vote on a motion to re-
commit the bill under consideration,
with instructions for the committee to
report it with an amendment repeating
the Payne-Aldrich tariff law.
Bv a strict party vote OF $50 to 116
in which the insurgents lined up with
the regular Republicans, a point Of

KNOWN TO DETROIT POLICE
Man Under Arrest Once Charged
with Diamond Robbery

DETROIT, April 1,-"Little Dick
Harris, held with Frederick Cunning
ham, alias Eddie Fay, by the New
York police for the postoftice robbery
at Richmond, Va, is well known, the
officers say to the Detroit police. He
was arrested here in 1899, charged with
the theft of $4,000 worth of diamands,
said to have been taken at Ell Paso,
Texas.
The same difficulty experienced by
the New York police in photographing
Harris was overcome by the Detroit
officers, who strapped the man in a
chair, chloroformed him and secured
what is said to be the only photogra2h n
of Little Dick in existence.

His personal interest was shown when
