DEFENDS HIS PARTY.
Champ Clark Discusses Last Mondays
Vote in the House.

Washington, Jan. 13.-A statement
outlining the view of the Democratic
party in the house as to the meaning
of the recent rules fight setting forth
the precedent that would have been
set If the Democrats had voted to
overrule Speaker Cannon at that time,
has been issued by Champ Clark, the
Democratic leader of the house. and
probable speaker of the next congress.
The statement follows:
There Is a tempest in teapot
about how the Democrats voted on
Monday on the question of sustaining
Speaker Cannon's ruling. Some of the
papers have been charging that the
the 18th of March, 1910. This is an
entire mistake. Every Democrat who
made speeches On the proposition
pending on the 18th, 18th and 18th of
March, 1910, took particular pains
to state that the precedents were in
favor of the speakers ruling on that
occasion and that what we were then
doing was Revolutionary in its char
acteF. I used this language on that
occasion. There is ne use to nince
matters about 1t. 1t is revolution.
Individually, I am not afraid of revo-
lutions, for people of our blood al
ways revolutionize in the right direc-
ton.
1.-The difference In the situation is
that in March, 1910, we were fighting
to accomplish a great result, namely.
to liberate the house from the domin-
alton of an oligarchy of five, of which
the speaker was one. In fact, in
the slang phrase of the day, he was
it That was the committee on rules.
The deSpotiSm of that old committee
on rules. composed of five men, of
which the speaker was chairman, had
become intolerable, and we were en-
tirely justified in upsettfng all the pre-
cedents that were ever made to eman-
cipate ourselves, which We did
1.-The question last Monday was an
insignificant squabble between Judge
Fuller of Illinois, and James r. Mann,
of Illinois, both Republicans, neither
one an insurgent, each determined to
have his own way. Each one had a
bill that he wanted to get up, and that
is all there was to it. There was no
principle involved whatever. By our
cision was sustained by the precedents
and we also said by our votes that
the matter in controversy was not of
| sufficient consequences to revolutionize
| the house. -
"There is no inconsistency whatever
! in our votes in March, 1910, and last
Monday. The speaker can get all the
pleasure out of it he wants, which is
very little, think. The appeal from
his decision was taken by rampant

West Virginia, Standpatter of the
standpatters. If the Democrats had
overruled the speaker by their votes
and thus created a precedent, then in

Successor to Senator Hughes to Be
Chosen January "a.

Denver, Jan. 13.-Governcr Shat
roth has announced that the first bal
lot to choose a successor to the late
United States Senator Charles ].
Hughes, jr., would be taken in the
legislature January "a.
The tenor of political gossip con-
cerning the probable successor of the
late Senator Hughes seemed TO make
chances of Mayor Speer and former
Governor Adams appear predominant,
but the opinion was freely expressed
that Gerald Hughes, eldest son of the
late senator, had an excellent chance
of being chosen.

this morning that within the next two
days witness would be called by the
state who would show that Mrs.
Schenk purchased quantities of arsenic
and sugar of lead shortly before the
return of her husband from Europe.
1t is not expected that the trial will be
concluded this week.
Alma j. Evans, a professional nurse,
recited on the stand her story against
Mrs. Schenck and the circumstances
that Influenced her to suspect that
Mrs. Schenck was poisoning her hus-
band, John o. Schenk, who is now al
most recovered. Her testimony dealt
unsparingly with the accused woman
1t was Miss Evans who attended
Schenk during his illness and the
state brought out on direct examina-
tion a statement from her that Mrs.
Schenk had lost her love for the
wealthy pork packer. She testified
that time and again Mrs Schenk had
instructed her that if John died sud
