mission.

he declared "and the roads are to make
additional improvements to their equip
ment and other facilities. then we must
have the assistance Of an increase OF
rates"
Then, do you mean" inquired Commits
sioner Lane, that unless this proposed
increase of rates is granted, there will be
no more railroads constructed?'
Perhaps not quite that" responded Mr..
Gcwen. but do believe that the railroad
business OF the country must he done by

who confessed to having received bribes
were not to be believed.
The dismissal by the majority report Of
charges that three members had paid
brlbes to four other members OF the Iii
nos Legislature because the three had
denied the charges and confessed bribs
takers were not to be believed is then
referred to by Senator Beveridge, who
asks
what else did the majority expect these
accused bribe givers to do except to deny
that they gave the brides; what else could
they have done, unless they. too. confessed?
Did the majority expect everybody connect
ed with these corrupt proceedings to con-
fess?
The explanations Of the alleged bribe
givers-Browne, Broderck and WILSON
OF their transactions with other members
OF the Legislature, and Of their presence
in ST Louis at the time the so-called
Jackpot" fund is said TO have been dis
tributed, are declared by Senator Bev-
eridge to be absurd and grotesque."
Senator Beveridge discussed at great
length the statutes on the subject OF
election frauds and said they upheld
his contention that Mr. Lorimer must
have received 102 "untsintcd" votes in
order to be elected. AS his total vote was
10S. the seven votes which many people
agree were tainted were sufficient Sem
ator Beveridgc held, 10 inyalidate the
DoHnrfino~ Tho ysOfpd which
he believed were tainted the vote OF
Mr. LorImer would be reduced to ", or
four less than a majority. Mr.. Beveridge
held that if any one case Of bribery be
clearly established it makes the whole
election FOUL
Mr. Beveridge urged tho overthrow of
unsound precedents and the establish
ment of the standard that one act or
bribery makes an election foul
The minority report also argued that
only a majority vote in the circumstances
under the Lorimer case would be neces-
sary to declare the seat vacant. At the
same time, the Senator declared that the
evidence in the case required the Senate
to consider whether Mr.. Lorimer was in
formed Of what was going on In his be-
half. II It were shown that Mr.. Lorimer
possessed such information, Mr.. Bever-
idge argued that the Senate should vote
to expel, which would require a two
thirds vote.

which has since become the most powerful

Davis's actual political work was done at
thc clubhouse of this club. Here he met

DISCOVER "HOSTILE" FLEET
Naval Officials Jubilant Over
Stanton 8 Achievement,

Washington. Jan. 9--rhe Atlantic battle
ship feet was discovered by the defend
ing feet 1880 miles east Of st. Augustine.
Fla. at o'clock Sunday morning, while
approaching the shores OF the United States
as a technical enemy" The Navy Depart
ment was advised to this effect in a wire
less telegram received to-day from Rear
Admiral Staunton, commanding the de
Tending" feet
The fleet was sighted in approximate lati-
tude 30 degrees north and longitude 20 de-
grees west. In subsequent messages re-
ceived from Rear Admiral stanton the de-
partment was advised that the scouting
feet was keeping In touch with the battle
ship fleet, and that the latter was pursuing
a course south by southwest on its way to
Guantanamo.
II was the duty OF Rear Admiral Staun-
ton TO watch the entire Atlantic coast to
detect the advancing feet. In view OF the
great latitude OF his watch, naval officials
are jubilant over his achievement, which
they declare indicates that an approach
ing hostile feet could be located by scout
ships before il could get within striking
distance Of the shores of this country.
