MUST SHOW UNITED STATES
Cause OF Delay in Recognizing New
Government in Portugal.

Washington, Feb. 14.-In the very
words of the complaint of Foreign
Minister Machado against the delay
of the United States in recognizing
the infant republic of Portugal, the
Taft administration professed to find
vindication for its wavering policy
Convincing proof of Machado's as
sertion that the present revolutionist
government is the will of the people
and not merely the will of coterie of
textbook theorists must be forthcom-
ing before recognition will be granted
by the United States" says a high
official of the state department. "The
endorsement of the present admins
tration by a general election would be
considered by the state department as
constituting such proof"

Philadelphia Preiate Expires After
Lingering Illness.

Philadelphia, Feb. 14.-Rev. Patrick
John Ryan, archbishop of Philadelphia
and metropolitan of Pennsylvania, is
dead at the archepiscopal residence
in this city.

the greatest of the line of bishops and
archbishopS that have occupied the
episcopal see of Philadelphia since it's
erection in 1903. His reputation was
national and in his home city he was
accorded a popular recognition that
far surpassed that of any of his pre-
decessors, he having been on the
friendliest terms with men of all relig-
ious denominations. He was one of
the foremost pulpit orators in the
Catholic church in this country.
The archbishop was born in Thurles.

BAILEY COMES
To The RESCUE
Texan Defends LOrimer in
the Senate.
NOT PERSONALLY GUILTY

Speaker Declares No Evidence Has
Been Produced to Show That the
Illinois SoIon Was Aware of Alleged
Bribery-Takes Issue With Beve-
ridge, Burton and Root Regarding
Corruption.
Washington, Feb. 14.-William Lori
mer's strongest advocate, Senator Bal
ley (Dem., Tex, spoke in his behalf
in the senate, discussing all the fea-
lures of the case and announcing his
conclusion that nothing had been
shown to affect Lorimer's right to a
seat in the senate
Not one of the army of witnesses, he
said, had testified to anything tending
to implicate Lorimer personally.
Bailey said that while he did not
concede that any legislators had been
corrupt, if there were seven cases of
bribery, as claimed, it would not af-
feet the legality of Lorimer's election
In such an event it would be nee
essary to deduct the tainted votes
from the total vote of the legislature
and that would leave Lorimer with a
clear majority of unchallenged votes,
he asserted.
Bailey said that when Senators
Owens, Beveridge, Burton and Root
lauded the law in England that the
corruption of a single vote by an
agent of a candidate yoids the elec-
tion they We're apparently unaware
that the agent of an English candi-
date is a vastly different candidate
than the term is understood here.
The term agent" in England is
provided for by statute and represents
the candidate throughout the contest
No such term figures in the elec-
tion laws of this country, Bailey ex-
planned.

III Paso. Tex, Feb. 14.-The Mexi-

INDICATES ITS
FINAL ADOPTION
Vote in House to Take Up
Canadian Reciprocity.
NORTHWEST IS OPPOSED

Three Minnesotans and One Iowan
the Only Members From This Sec
tion Who Favored Immediate Con-
sideration-Democrat Vote Almost
Solidly for Action on the Matter at
the Present Time.
Washington, Feb. 14.--By vote of
1875 to 12l the house decided to begin
Immediate consideration of the Mccall
bill to ratify the reciprocity agreement
with Canada.
On the motion that the house should
proceed to the consideration of the
measure the members from the North
west voted as follows
Against-Messrs. Hammond, Davis,
Lindbergh, Miller, Steenerson and Vol
stead of Minnesota, Burke and Martin
of South Dakota and Hanna of North
Dakota. All the Iowa members ex-
cept Representative Walter l. Smith
For-Messrs. Nye, Stevens and Taw-
ney of Minnesota.
The motion to consider the agree,
ment was made by Representative
Samuel w. Mccall of Massachusetts.
Under the rules the day was set apart
for the consideration of District of
Columbia business. Representative
Clarence b. Miller of Duluth objected
to sidetracking the District bills.
Miller Explains His Vote.
81 didn't vote against reciprocity,
but for the District of Columbia day."
said Mr. Miller "The District has
been denied its day for long time.
| shall vote for the reciprocity bill
know of many others who voted as
did and for the same reason"
Representative Smith, who is op-
posed to the Canadian agreement,
voted for its consideration on the
ground that the administration was
entitled to an early hearing.
While the vote to displace the regu.
lar order en- the house calendar and
take up reciprocity cannot be accepted
as an exact indication of the final vote
on the bill it is regarded as being ap-
proximately so. The vote against TAX
ing up the measure came almost
wholly from the Republican side.
The Democrats voted almost solidly
for immediate consideration. Some of
the Republicans who voted against
displacing the regular order are not
expected TO place themselves on rec
ord against reciprocity at a final vote.
Representative S. w. Mccall of
Massachusetts handled the time for
debate in favor of the bill.

Analysis of the Vote.

The voting on the motion to take up
the reciprocity measure was followed
with the keenest interest. On yea
and nay vote there are always two
calls through the alphabetical list. At
the end of the first call it was seen
that the reciprocity advocates were
winning a comparatively easy victory.
The vote then was ayes ITS, noes 110.
At the end of the second call, the vote
was announced as 1875 to 121.
This was later changed to 1876 to 121
to correct a clerical error.
An analysis of the vote to take up
the Mccall bill showed this result
For-Republicans, 90; Democrats,
1876; total, 1876.
Against-Republican 101; Demo.
Gratis, 20; total, 121.
The Republican insurgents attitude
toward reciprocity was shown by the
fact that fourteen voted against con.
sideration and only six for it.
