THE SPEAKERS LAST WORD.
He Retires Without Feeling Against
 Any Colleague.

Washington. March 4.-In his vale dictory Speaker Cannon. in laying down his gavel after his eventful term of speakership. referred to his selection eight years ago after nearly thirty years service in the house. He re- called that when he first marched down the aisle to become speakers the present Senator John Sharp Williams introduced him.
 "Froa2 that time to the present" said NIT. Cannon. -I have never forgotten hat my Guty to the house was to obey it's will. to enforce its rules. ana to pre- side with courtesy and impartiality-
 Suggesting that all legislative bodies were controlled by the majority. he prophesied woe to the man or minority which refused to abide by and conform to the will of the majority.
 Because" he sail. "Until new ma iority is made the present majority voices the will of all p"ople-subjec:. yes. to criticism. but such criticism as leaves with me no heartbUrningS. and in life. whether it bein the church or the state. or in legislative bodies. the seeming troubles of those clothed with power and responsibility come not from the majority. but from the minority.
 'I have served in this body for al- most a generation and to me it is the greatest body clothed with power on earth. I have an abiding faith that whatever political body is in power. the privileges of the house will be maintained as defined in the cOnstitu- ton. In their maintenance rests the freedom. security and liberty of ninety millions of people.
 Tt is not necessary that some method shall be maintained" the speaker con tinued. by which the house can select the best from the great avalanche of bills introduced and no two men agree

Washington. March 4-Statehood for New Mexico and Arizona was de- ferred today by the defeat of a reso- lution approving their proposed consti- tutions. The constitution of New, Mex ico. approved by the president and the house. was forced up by Senator Bailey on the night session of Friday. Until then it had not been generally under stood that final action would be taken on it by the senate of the siNty-first congress.
 A filibuster was promptly begun by Senator owen of Oklahoma to prevent its approval before final adjournment.
 The filibuster was maintained until this morning, when it threatened the defeat of several big appropriation bills The senate still had under con sideration the resolution formally ap- proving New MexicO's constitution.
 Senator owen then insisted that by way of a compromise that the Ari- zona constitution. which only reached Washington yesterday. should be ap- proved at the same time. and held the floor until the senate leaders agreed to couple Arizona with New Mexico. After the two had been coupled. how ever. the senate voted down the reso- lution.
 It was asserted later that this does not mean that New Mexico could not be admitted by the action of the president. Mir. owen based his fight on the as sumption that MT Taft might not ap- prove the Arizona constitution because of provision for the recall of judicial officials.
 In the main the vote for the resolu- ton was cast by democrats and that against it by republicans, but there were exceptions.
 The republicans voting in the af- firmative were: Senators Beveridge, Borah. Bourne. Bristow. Brown. Bur kett. Clapp Cummins. Dixon. Gronna. Jones. LaFollette, McCumber and Nixon.
 Senators Bailey, Overman and Talia- ferro. democrats. voted with the ma jority of the republicans in the nega- tive
 The vote was as follows: Ayes Bacon. Beveridge, Borah, Bourne, Bristow. Brown. Burkett. Chamberlain, Clapp. Clark CArk). Culbertson, Cum mins. Dixon. Fletcher. Frazier, Gore, Gronna.

their support to those vagaries and it was under that impression that l was prompted to tender my resignation. The most conspicuous democrats who voted that way have given me their assurance that they did not intend their votes to be so construed. and have made through Senator Bacon a statement in the open senate express ly declaring that they utterly disap- prove of them.
 Under these circumstances, and at their earnest request, as well as your request, supplemented by many mes sages from friends in Texas and some other states l have concluded to with draw my resignation. am willing to work to the limit of my strength as long as I can serve the public and at the same time obey what l under stand to be- the commandment of democratic principles, but no office could tempt me for one moment to compromise on a policy which I am certain would in the end destroy the government established by our fath- ers'
 Eleven democratic senators sent a telegram to Governor Colquitt urging upon him and the people today to demand the withdrawal of the resig- nation. It was signed by Messrs Ba- con, Foster. Overman, Taliaferro. Paynter. Bankhead. Percy. Johnson. Taylor. Watson and Fletcher.
 While Mir Bailey predicated his res ignation on the vote of the democrats for the Arizona constitution. many friends looked on that vote as the last straw in a series of snubs in tended to show Mir. Bailey the futility of his aspiring to the democratic lead ership of the senate.
 Close observers of recent develop ments in the senate know that a movement against MT. Bailey had been growing on the democratic side during the last few weeks and many people here believe now that the fili- buster led by Mir Stone of Missouri. backed by a large democratic follow ing. was due partly to a desire to show Mir Bailey that his influence was waning.
 By withdrawing his objections to the tariff board bill in order to get an agreement to get a vote in the LOrllner contest MT. Bailey dlendleu considerable following When the former tariff board compact was made there was a belief on the re- publican side that there would be no filibuster against the legislative DOT tion of the agreement Otherwise the insurgent republicans who were a unit against Lorimer would not have agreed to the arrangement When the vote was taken on the Lorimer case. almost immediately obstructive tactics were begun by the democrats against the tariff board bill.
 The only explanation Mir. Bailey could make was that he was unable to call off his colleagues. In this state of affairs it took little tn arouse his anger to a flame. Then followed the open slap given today when he advised against the adoption of the owens motion in regard tO Arizona statehood. Although the motion was defeated the defeat was due almost entirely to republican votes.

who are ordinarily just. when in temper will be unjust
 And while we do not endorse every thing MT. Cannon has done or said. and while perhaps he and all the rest of us would need to ask that some of our verbal sins. at least. be forgiven, offer this resolution without retracting anything from the principles that we advocated in this congress; without apOlOgizing to any mortal man for the talk of the minority in this house dur ing this congress. and according; others the same honest patriotism that we claim for ourselves. l believe this reso- lution is just and ought to pass.
 'I am certain that when the heat of the occasion is passing. and when we reflect we will wish for the retiring speaker peace. prosperity. plenty. hap piness and length of days
 The resolution provided that com mittee of two notify MT. Cannon of the adoption of the resolution and escort him back to the rOstrum. MT. Under wood appointed Mir. Clark and Mir. Mann % escort the speaker back to the rOstrum.
 Down the main aisle. watched by great crowd that overflOwed the gal leries and even spread to all available space between the railing and the rear members seats. while the members of both parties cheered and handkerchiefs waved. Mir. Cannon with MT. Clark holding his arm and Mir. Mann close beside. marched tO the rostrum. There MT. Clark introduced to the house: our old familiar friend. Joseph Can non. known from the Atlantic to the Pacific as Uncle Joe.
 He is the second man in the history of the government to serve as speaker for eight years" said Mir. Clark. and he is the only man in the history of the republican party that ever served in the house thirty-siX years. In con secutive service he leads all. In length of service he is exceeded by Henry Clay alone

THE NEWS AT AUSTIN.
Volunteers for the Vacancy Began to
 Get Busy.

Austin, Texas. March. 4.-When Governor COlcuitt received a message saying that MT. Bailey had resigned his scat in the senate he was greatly surprised. Immediately he wired Mir. Bailey that he would not accept the resignation. The news was soon car ried to the legislature then in session. and soon after a resolution request ing the governor immediately to tel egraph MT Bailey and ask him to withdraw his resignation was adopted without discussion.
 Meantime several friends of the senator obtained the signatures of seventy legislators to the following message which /was sent to Mir. Bailey: The undersigned members of the thirty second legislature of Texas carrying the instructions of a unan- imous caucus. demand that you re- consider and withdraw your resigna- ton Your friends have never betray- ed you in any crisis as you have never betrayed your cOuntrymen. Trust us as we trust you
 As soon as the resolution demand ing that Bailey retain his seat passed the senate fifty-six opponents of Bailey in the legislature held eau GUS and began to lay plans. The an drawal of his resignation put sud- den end to what ambitions they might have had

ELEVENTH HOUR WHIRLWIND.
Succeeded by an Almost Religious
 Calm.

Washington. March 4-Neterans say the riotous scenes in the house before the tariff board bill was withdrawn surpassed in violence and turmoil those accompanying the closing of any re- cent session of that body
 The determination of the democrats to prevent the passage of the tariff board bill. which had passed the sen ate early in the day. exhibited itself m a most persistent filibuster. which at times looked almost like the famous rules fight last spring.
 Representative Johnson of Kentucky. for instance. stood in the lobby and expressed regret that the speaker was not a younger man
 The speaker promptly replied that he would not take advantage of his age. The house greeted the inter change with tumultuous cheering.
 There was a series of roll calls and parliamentary steps, every one of which meant the loss of more than half an hour At last while the vote was being taken on a resolution to force the bill to passage, Republican Lead CT Payne. realizing both the lmpracu- cability of reaching favorable vote and the narrow margin of time before the noon adjournment. asked the at tention of the house, and in brief statement. withdrew the bill This probably eliminated tariff board leSis- lation for long time to come. for the democrats who accomplished its de- feat will control the house in the com ing siXty-seCond congress.
 The house then turned its attention to the appropriation bills. The clock was set back half an hour and in strong contrast with the turbulent scenes which had gone before the house devoted itself to an exchange of courtesies. There were more notable bv reason of the fact that they marked the retirement of the venerable speak er. Joseph Cannon. and the passing or house control from powerful repubH- can majority to a democratic majority even larger.
 First. Speaker Cannon asked NIT. Un- derwOod of Alabama. who is to head the ways and means committee of the new house, to take the chair and MT Cannon took a seat among his col leagues. Then the Speaker-to-be Clark offered a resolution paying high personal tribute to the retiring speak er and Acting Speaker Underwood put the resolution before the house. which adopted it unanimously.
 In his speech, MT Clark character ized Mir Cannon as "a great historical character" Mir Clark said in part:
 Tt does not make particle of diff ference whether we like him or dislike him; whether we indOrse what he has done in whole >or in part. or not at all He is a man with whom the historian will deal in days to come and he will occupy a large space.
 Human nature is a curious and un- reliable institution. Under the stress of circumstances and aggravation good men say what in good humor they nev- CT dream of saving. Courteous men when angry act discoUrteOusly. Men

SUNDAY MORNING, MARCH 5, 1911.

absolutely blocking progress in the house.
 The president appealed to the senate leaders to use whatever influence they might have with Mir owen. The senator declined to see the president. He said that Arizona must come in jointly with New Mexico and have her referendum legislation approved at the same time or the appropriation bills would fail. Both filibusters ac- complished their immediate purpose. The senate did not approve the con stitutiCn of New Mexico and the house cid not pass the tariff board bill.
 When the filibusters had been brought to close, the time remaining was tCo short and the time-hOnOred custom of turning back the clock was resorted tO. Thrice in the house the hands of the two clocks were set back. each tir.e fifteen minutes. The senate resorsed to this device but once. the hands being pushed back full half hour. The senate adjourned at 1920 and the house at 12:37.
 All the tiS appropriation bills finally managed tO squeeze through in time to secure the approval of the presi- dent The work of whipping the measures into final shape and engrOss- ing them taxed to the utmost the sys- tenn of the capitol government print ing office. Eight bills carrying more than $70O, ,OOO.O 900 were rushed through in the last forty eight hours of the session.
 When the excitement over the un- certainty of the fate of the appropri- ation bills had died away and the vice presidents gavel had fallen for the adjournment of the senate, the news came that Senator Bailey had resigned It was said that he was unified" over the action of his demo cratic colleagues in not following his leadership during the last days.
 The rumor was discredited at first, but when it was confirmed by the senator himself the sensation in the senate wing soon spread to the house and for a time the vicissitudes of the old session and speculation concerning the new were lost sight of in the dis cussion of this development
 Later Mir. Bailey withdrew his resig- nation.
 The tumult in the closing hours. following the all night sitting in both senate and house. died away when the last of the appropriation bills had been disposed of and there were the usual scenes of felicitatiOns among the members.
 The galleries were crowded.
 The end of the SiXty-first congress held far deeper significance than the surface showing or the wrangling dis order indicated. In the house 1t meant the turning over of control to the democrats after sixteen years of re- publican supremacy. It meant the stepping down of f'Uncle Joe from his position of boyer at the speaker desk to the more humble place in the ranks of the minority. IL meant the retirement to private life of small army of republican members, 'Who throughout the session had borne the taunts of the democrats with the sobriduet of lame ducks. Some de- parted with mournful mien, while others hurried away to comfortable berths in the public service.

TALK TO RHODES SCHOLARS.
Their Guest American Consul General
 at London.

oxford. England, March 4.-The American club. composed for the most part of Rhodes scholars, gave a din- ner tonight to John T. Griffiths American consul general at London Griffiths eXtolled the spirit of British public life. He said the Rhodes scholars would return to America not only impressed with the impartial en- forcement of the laws in England but what was much finer. with the widespread obedience to authority shown by the English people.
 "One conspicuous failure in Amer ica," said the consul general, ''is the ruthless exploiting of great cities by selfish. greedy and corrupt men. The establishment of voluntary service is most encouraging and most inspiring in English public life"

MURDERER OF PRINCESS SAYS HE LOVED TOO MUCH
Slayer of Di Trisona Will Get We'll,
 Say Physicians

Rome, March 5.-It is expected that Baron Nincenzo PaternO, the ieuten- ant who stabbed Princess Di TrigOna, lady in waiting to Queen Helena will live to answer for his crime
 Attending physicians say the crisis has passed The patient appears not to have been seriously injured in his attempted suicide.
 The Crown prosecutor interTogated him this afternoon for nearly an hour. Paterno took advantage of his condi- ton to answer only what he wished. He repeated often that T loved that woman. I loved her too much. She refused to belong to me longer. She made me lose my head He insisted on issuing a note denying that he had killed the princess for revenge, or de- sired to have her money.
 The two little daughters of the mur- dered princess sObbed out their grief in the arms of Queen Helena at the Quirinal today. Her majesty was greatly affected and with difficulty controlled her emotions as she con- soled the mOtherless ones and assured them of her continued protection.
 A painful leave-taking preceded the departure of the children and their father with the body of the princess to her old home at Palermo.
 The prince sent a letter to King Victor Emanuel asking that he be re- lieved of the office of gentleman wait- ing at the court of the queen.
 The children have been informed of the death of their mother. but the circumstances have been withheld.
