DALAI LAMA LOSES JOB
Chinese Government Puts an End to
the Rule of Religious Fanatic
in Tibet.

Pekin, Feb. 25.-The Chinese government
has depOsed the dalai lama as head of
the Tibetan government. and in an Of
fetal statement issued today explains its
action on the ground that the nominal
ruler had deserted the capital following
an attempt by him TO organize a general
revolt.
The official statement follows;
THE dalai lama upon his arrival az
Lhasa from PekiH circulated with the OBJ
ject Of organizing general revolt these
rumOrs:
First, that China intended to exter-
inmate Lamaism, and second, that British
trade in effect was injuring Tibet The
dalai lama then took measures to thwart
this trade, whereupOn China became
alarmed, and ordered 1900 troops to go
to Lhasa with the object of preserving
the peace and affOrding protection.
when the dalai lama learned of the
above, the Pekin government ordered the
Chinese resident TO return the dalai
lama, who refused TO listen and left with
his followers. The resident searched in
effectively, whereupOn China deposed the
dalai lama, ordered the Tibetians TO elect
his successor and issued decree order
ing the protection of Lamaism and the
strict observance of the existing treaties
with foreign powers concerning Tibet.

was that the cOmpauy's bill was not the
lowest and i'm the best interests of the gu
eminent. and that it failed TO comply
with certain legal techniCaiities.
Upon the question of it's relation to the
court, however, the graver contention was
made that the members of the printing
committee were not clothed with the
constitutional immunity conferred by
their membership IN Congress, in that
they did not act in a ministerial capacity
and that the mandamus, stripped of its
primary features, was not a mandamus
against the printing committee at all
but really a mandamus from the supreme
court of The District of Columbia TO
Congress itself.
The committees plea was that as
committee It's members did the same
work which Congress itself could do upon
the floor Of both houses If it chose TO
do so.
Justice Wright said he would hand down
his decision on Monday.
This presents q situation entirely new
in American Jurisprudence, with the pos
sibility of the three United States SEN
ators being adjudged i'm contempt of
court, and with the possibility Of a su-
preme court justice being accused by Con
gress.
