South Dakota Scion Declares There
Is No Evidence to Support
Claim Of Corruption in
Election
SPREADS COAT OF WHIItWASA
Says Money Was Used For Unlawful
Purposes But Not in Lorimer's
Election. "Untaintedr
Majority of One.

Washington, ID. c., Jan 2S.-Senator
Gamble of South Dakota today spoke
in support of the findings of the ma
jority of the sub committee that in
vestigated the election of Lorimer
Gamble declared money had been
used in the Illinois legislature for un-
lawful and unworthy purposes, but
maintained there is no evidence for
the belief that such funds were used
for the election of a senator. The legis-
lature of Illinois was held up by the
speaker as a body In which corruption
had prevailed, and in which money
had been received by members for un-
lawful and unworthy purposes. Funds
had been distributed after adjourn
ment among those who had been re-
sponsible for certain legislation, but
never had it been shown by any evl-
.dence worthy. in Candles opinion of
the belief that such funds were used
for the election of a senator.
Il feel" said the speaker, that If
Lorimer be guiltless as regards these
practices, and a sufficient number of
votes of the membership who voted for
him were not tainted or corrupted,
then he should not be made to suffer
as the result of a general practice
which appears to have been in vogue
throughout different legislative ses-
sions as affecting matters of legisla-
tion solely and disassociated from the
election of United States senator"
The speaker analyzed the vote cast
in the election and argued. citing au-
thorlties, that even the exclusion of
the votes cast for Lorimer and alleged
to been tainted would yet leave Lori
mer a clear majority of one.

ALGOMAH.

Thompson, Towle d Co. say: Devel-
opments at he Algomah property are
almost sensational There Is certain
~ very strong evidence that Algomah
has the extension of the Lake lode.
ON the first level at q depth of 1lO feet
drifting has been done for a distance
of $50 feet north and south, and both
drifts are i'm fine ore; no native copper
but the same oxidized direct smelling
ore found i'm the shaft from the sur
face down.
Near the Lake line, the No. drill
has this same character Of ore at
depth of 76O feet. and as the drifts from
the Lake mine proper approach the AL
eomah boundary they run into punches
of oxidized ore which would indicate
that there is a change in the formation
as they approach the Algomah ground
While IL was originally figured that
as depth was reached the ore would
turn into native copper, the fact that
the same character of ore was found al
a depth Of 760 feet by the drills would
Indicate that the present oxidization
goes to depth. and as this oxidized ore
Is the richest ore in the Lake dis
trict. its continuance is very much de-
sired Algomah has about $4,000 cash
remaining in it's treasury.

The CombustIble Give.

AS long ago as the middle of the
eighteenth century, famous Georgian
actress, Mrs. Kitty Give, felt the call of
the nerves commonly associated with
modern women. The whole green room.
according to the author of "Garrick
and his Circle" feared her tantrums.
Her character stood high, but her
clean, wholesome nature and honest
heart scarcely Offset her temper. She
was the one player 0arrick feared, and
he did everything he could to dis
perse her nerve storms, or, II they
broke, assuage them. IL Is among
the legends Of the English stage that
he said to her.

stone, but you are the cream Of one
and the flower of the other!"-Youth's

over Hundred Mexican Soldiers
Slain by the lnsurrectos Who
Win Great Victory at
0jibinaga
BATTLE IN A NARROW GORGE

Mountain Pass, Shut Off Only
Avenue of Escape and Pour
in Deadly Fire.

Maria, Texas, Jan. 23.-That over
one hundred government troops were
killed in a fight two days ago at Ojibi-
naga was the report received here to-
day.
Two hundred government soldiers
we're Iured into narrow mountain
gorge. A deadly fire was poured into
them from the heights above. A re-
treat was ordered but before the men
could escape more than half of their
number were killed and many others
wounded.
The government troops were trapped
and literally moved down by storm
of bullets which swept their ranks
from three directions.
The instructors occupied the cliffs
and mountains and the soldiers were
In the road with only one way of es-
Gaping and that blocked. OF two hun
dred men who went into the pass only
forty escaped as far as known. The
Revoutionists' loss Is said to have
been slight, only five men being killed,
according to their reports.
The lighting started on January 16
when a small band of Insurrectos were
routed at Coyama. A column of two
hundred soldiers pursued the fleeing
Insurrectos and ran into trap set
for them. The road winds through a
narrow cannon, forming an "Oul De
Sac" into which the government troops
marched. When all were i'm the pass
the Insurrectos swept down the noun
tain side in the road behind them and
the firing began. 1t is believed about
200 Insurrectos were engaged. They
lay behind rocks and poured a steady
fire into the government troops. The
battle lasted all day January II. The
next day Col Dorantes adyanced from
Ojinaga with reinforcements. He cir
ced about avoiding the deadly pass
and entered the mountains from the
west. He discovered Insurrectos and
