Three Republicans and Three Demo-
Gratis Constitute the Court.
ARE TO BE CALLED
Great Latitude Given and Bribery
Charges Will Be Gone Into.
HoLsTLAw IS TO TELL HIS STORY
Lee O'Nein Browne Has Been NOti-
fled to Appear and Tell His side
of the story to the Six
Senators.

CHICAGO. Sept. t5.--(special telegram
Members Of the senatorial committee which
viii investigate the elections OF United
States Senator William Dorlmer will be-
gin their sessions here next Tuesday morn
ing at 10 o'clock in the Congress hotel.
They will go into the bribery charges much
farther than Il is possible TO do in court
trial.
The committee is empowered to summon
witnesses and to administer oaths. The
evidence given will have as much force
and be entitled 10 the same consideration
as in a criminal court There probably
will be more latitude. however. in the ex-
animation of witnesses
Senator Lorimer will be represented be-
fore the committee by counsel, but he said
today he hadn't determined who his law
yers would be. 1t is understood that
former Judge Elbridge Hanecy. who ap-
peared in the arguments preliminary to the
first trial of Lee O'Neill Browne, will have
charge of the senator's case.
Senator j. c. Burrows OF Michigan is
chairman of the investigating committee
and the other members are Senators w.
b. Hepburn, Idaho; Robert j. Gamble,
South Dakota, and William p, Dillingham;,
Vermont, republicans, and Senators ]. B.
Frasier. Tennessee; Johnston, Alabama,
ana Haynter, henluch4s ueiuoCldAh-
1t is reported that all the leading MEM
bers OF the bipartisan combine which
elected Mr.. Lorlmer have been summoned
to appear before the committee, and in
addition to these. all the democrats who
have confessed they were paid for their
votes will be called as witnesses. In this
hearing the evidence of Senator d. w
Holstlaw will be received. whereas it could
not be offered in the Browne trial
Holstlaw says he was paid $500 by
Senator Broderick .Jr his vote on the sem
atorship and Broderick is under indictment
for bribery. That will make four demo-
cratic members of the legislature who will
testify In support OF the charges that cor
ruption was used in the election.
Another point of interest will be the
attitude assumed by Lee oNeill Browne.
He did not so on the stand as witness
in either OF his trials, but he will be given
chance TO tell his side of the story to
the senatorial committee, for 1t is said he
has been summoned as a witness.
The members of the committee are ex-
pected TO arrive here some time Monday,
and IL is believed their hearings will con-
tinue two weeks or longer.

CENSUS OF LARGER CITIES
Twenty-Ntne show Growth of More
Than Three Millions.

Twenty-Nine show Growth of More
Than Three Millions.
WASHINGTON, Sept 1.-THE second bull
letin of the census showing the growth of
cities was issued today OF the thirty
eight cities which - 1900 had a population
OF 10000 and more. twenty-four are given
and to these are added five which have
attained the 10000 mark during the past
decade. The aggregate population OF these
twenty-nine cities now is I3596.Si9. as
against lOS5s.o12 in 1900 and 7.9O4,l4O in 1890
The absolute growth between 1890 and 1900
amounted to 2.47l.S72. between 1900 and 1910
to g. 20 sJ7.
The percentages of increase for this ag-
gresate population show very little change
in the rate of growth during the two
decades, being for the earlier one 31.3 per
cent and for the later 81 per cent. The
fact is noted that the high rate Of increase
is not confined to any one geographical
section.
or the seven cities whose rate exceeded
20 per cent two Newark, n. j., and Bridge
port, Conn. are eastern; one. Atlanta is
southern and four. Detroit. Denver Kan
sas City and Columbus, are western. OF
the two cities with the lowest rate, one is
eastern and the other is western.
Remarking upon the facts presented the
bulletin says:
The rates OF increase for Atlanta. De-
troit Denver and Kansas City must be re-
garded as phenomenaly high, but even
more extraordinary Is the high percentage
for New York. which exceeds the average
for twenty eight cities in the = CUP by ia
per cent. and is itself exceeded only by the
rates of seven cities, The New York City
rate, moreover, has been maintained at its
present high point for two decades, and
may therefore be regarded as a normal rate
for that city,
Fifty-four cities OF between $500 and
10000 are given, showing an aggregate
population OF 2,723. 49, as against SOL 766 in
1900, gain OF 49, per cent a rate of
growth which the census bureau pro-
nounces "phenomenally high"
or these fifty-four cities, thirty-one show
a higher rate of increase for the last decade
than for the previous one. SO far no de-
crease Is noted in any Of the cities

TEACHERS DECLARE SELVES
Female Educators Of Chicago Turn
Down Union Labor Proposition.
WANT sECOGErTloJ N PLATFORM
Request for support is Rejected and
Returned, After which Mrs.
Potter Suggests Getting
Busy.

CHICAGO. Sept l7.-(special Tele-
gram The Chicago Teachers Federation
today refused to act upon a communi-
cation from the Chicago Federation OF
Labor. asking its support in the forma-
tlon of a national political labor party,
because the platform tentatively pro-
posed made no reference to woman suf-
frage The organization wanted 20 know
whether the teachers would support a
political party made up OF labor and so
cialist organizations, or II they were in
favor of an Independent labor party.
What is their PLATFORM" asked one
of the teachers. When this document was
read and without a single allusion to
woman or woman's suffrage, there was
a chorus of exclamations.
Where do we benefit by this?" asked
one young woman.
The idear exclaimed a second. They
want our support, but would fail to give
us any recognition"
Send 1t back without action" sug-
gested a third, and this was unanimously
agreed upon.
The Teachers Federation, which met
this morning in Masonic temple, was ad-
dressed by Mrs Frances Squire Potter,
who resigned the chair of literature in
the University Of Minnesota to devote
herself IL the advancement of the suf-
frage and equal rights causes With
reference to the suffrage movement, Mrs.
Potter said
1T is time to stop talking and turn to
work that is real; but, II you must talk,
let II be with some definite aim What
may be considered prophecy on the lips
of a seer like the late Susan b. Anthony
becomes a rant when voiced in a period
of real, systematic organization.
THE suffrage movement has passed be-
yond the propaganda stage. and sensa-
tional methods of trying to get the ballot
will not avail. Get down to real work.
organize on rational lines. in districts
or precincts, and let the evolution come
from within. Let IL be educational and
work not alone for suffrage, but for
the general uplift II you wish success"
Mrs. Potter spoke Of the influence the
teacher had upon the building of char
acter through her relation TO the youth.
and said that under the old systetl there
was a danger OF educating children To a
double standard OF morals and manners.
The drawing OF a distinction between
professions and trades was bad. but
happily was disappearing, and toll was
respected. adding

veto a county option bill and in every way
