DEMOCRAT WANTED

Central Committee Adopts
Strong Resolutions.

On Ground that President Has ViO-

tiI Member of Party Is Named to
Succeed aIr. II. L. West.

Plans We're outlined by the Democratic
central committee last night for making
protest against the action of President
Taft in nominating two Republicans as
District Commissioners.
Resolutions adopted explain the oppOsi-
ton OF the committee to action of the
President in Ignoring precedent estab-
lished by the organic act OF 1873" The
fact that two Republicans, Cuno H. Ru
d0lph and Gen. John A. Johnston. were
named forms the basis of the protest.
A special committee was appointed 10
appear before the Senate Committee of
the District to protest against the con-
flrmation of the nominations and to de-
mand that one Of the civilian Commits
sloners shall be a Democrat. The secre-
tary OF the committee was instructed to
mail to each member Of the Senate a
copy of the resolutions, and. in addi-
ton, TO send 10 each Democratic Senator
private letter, asking his opposition to
the confirmation Of the nominations.
Discussion Lasts Three Hours.
There was q heated discussion. lasting
three hours, of the various plans sub
mitted. but no special opposition was
shown to either Mr. Rudolph or Gen.
Johnston. The opposition hinges on the
fact. the members Of the committee say,
that President Taft has broken away
from a welI-estabIished precedent.
When the members Of the Senate Com
nittee on the District assemble at the
Capitol tomorrow morning they viii find
the special committee from the Demo-
cratic central committee awaiting them
with a protest against the confirmation
OF the nominations. The secretary Of the
central committee viii be busy to-day

The attack was the result of a quarrel

quarter on the floor by Arlington He
picked up the coin, placing it in his
pocket. One Of the negroes claimed the
money, so words were passed.
Negroes in Waiting.
Arlington was in the company OF
friends. The negroes left the saloon. They
had been gone probably half an hour
when Arlington walked outside to get
fresh air. The negroes were IN waiting.
They attacked the bluei;.cket from behind.
He went down before he realized what
had happened.
He tried to rise. but the negroes forced
him to the ground again, stabbing him
in the left side and head repeatedly. Ar
ringtOn raised a cry for help. The negroes
fed. AS the sailors friends ran from
the saloon the negroes were seen running
up the street. They were too far in ad-
vance to be caught.
Arlington was removed to the Emer-
gency Hospital He was conscious. though
weak from wounds. The most dangerous
stabs are in the left side. Physicians fear
the knife blade penetrated near the heart.
There are two wounds in the back OF the
neck and several minor cuts on top Of the
head. Running from the point Of the left
jaw TO the eye is a cash several inches in
length. Arlington received several other
cuts on the face.
He talked with surgeons while the intu-
ries were being dressed. After he told of
the fight, he iapsed into inconsistencies.
His condition is serious. Physicians fear
one OF the stabs in the side may be fatal.
