DEMOCRATS IN ROW
over CHAIRMANSHIP
STRONG OPPOSITION TO sELEc.
TIoN OF SENATOR MARTIN
OF VIRGINIA

Washington, April IA caucus of
the democratic senators will be held
this afternoon for the purpose of Sc
lecting caucus chairman, which po-
sition carries with the minority floor
leadership. The session will be pro-
longed and lively, as there appears
to be sharp difference of opinion
over the eligibility of Senator Mar
tin for the leadership. The opposi-
ton to the Virginia senator, whose
election was conceded prior to the re-
cent visit to Washington of w. J.
Bryan, comes from what is known as
the progressive faction and is led by
Senator Stone of Missouri. Either
Senator Stone or Senator Culbertson
will probably be placed in nomination
against Martin.
The caucus adjourned at 1:15 and
it was announced that the election
this afternoon of Mr. Martin was con-
ceded. Senator Newlands, it was stat
ed, would be nominated against him.

AT ENSENADA, WHERE 200 ARE
REPORTED STARVING

Sandiego, Calf, April with
every foot of the Mexican border pa
trolled by United States troops. while
fleet of war craft is operating out
of San Diego harbor, the smuggling
of Chinese across the boundary has
been made too hazardous an occu-
patton as alresult of the military and
naval mobilization. A Chinese merch-
ant at San Diego yesterday shipped
one hundred mats of rice by steamer
to Ensenada, Lower California, where
200 stranded Chinese are on the
verge of starvation. Ensenada has
been its center Of smuggling opera
tions and the fact that 200 Asiatics
have accumulated there since theu
expected ordering of troops to the
boundary, illustrates the extent to
which the operations are usually car
ried on.

Washington, April 7.-The two last
presidents hold the record for the
longest and shortest messages sent to
congress at the beginning of a ses-
sion. There have been messages with
as few as fifty words sent to con.
gress, but they dealt with diplomatic
matters.
The longest message ever sent in
was that Of President Roosevelt on
the Panama canal. 1t contained near
ly fifty thousand words and in addi-
tion was profusely illustrated.
Aside from those of a diplomatic
nature Presidnt Taft holds the rec
ord for the shortest message, that on
the tariff to the extra session of the
Sixty-frst congress, which contained
just 1924 words. The next shortest
message was Mr.. Taft's recommends
tion sent to congress last Tuesday.

Big Waves Pounding Liner

New York, April 7.-Daylight today
disclosed the big liner Princess Irene
loaded with seventeen hundred pas
sengers from Mediterranean ports,
still broadside on the sands of Fire
Island beach, on the edge of the
grave yard of the Atlantic" Dawn
showed to her frightened passengers
a storm swept sea, with the great
swells piling higher and higher
against the ship, and spending spray
in showers over her decks. The eff
forts of the tugs to release the liner
had pulled her stern around twenty
five degrees, but had showed her nose
deeper into the sand. The problem
of moving the passengers is serious
one. Life savers are on the beach
and the steamship Prinz Friedrich
Wilhelm left her docks at Hoboken
this morning to go to the scene and
aid in the rescue. The derelict de-
stroyer Seneca also has been sum-
moned. But the life savers say con-
ditions of the weather and sea are
such it is dangerous to try to remove
the passengers at present.

Arrests Believed Near

Despite the fact another twenty
four hours has slipped by without wit
Messing an arrest in the Rogers kid
naping case, and in the face of per-
sistent denial on the part of the Off
GERS that any Advancement has been
made. it is rumored that sensational
developments will occur before the
close of the week. Though they are
exceedingly non-commital it is believ-
ed the officers have traced certain
clews found by them early in the
search and have under their constant
surveillance certain persons whom
they believe participated in the
crime. That no arrests have occur
red is believed to be due to caution
on the part of the officials, who do
not wish to take hasty action.
1t is asserted that the officers have
been able at a few moments notice
to seize persons whom they believe
are implicated. But they preferred,
evidently, to weave closer the net of
evidence which they are constructing,
before taking decisive action. 1t is
believed impossible for the suspected
persons to get out of town, should
they attempt to do so as every ave-
nue. of escape is being watched
Every action on the part of the OF
ficers points to their belief that the
criminals are in the city.
Not any hint of the identity of the
people suspected has escaped the lips
of the officers. But rumor has II
that when the arrests are made they
will occasion considerable surprise.
The air of mystery that surrounds the
doings of the sleuths is causing con
lecture as to what they are doing and
when they expect to take decisive
steps.
When asked today if there was any
thing new in the situation Captain
Fornoff of the mounted police said,
after glancing at the clouds:
"Tt looks exceedingly like rain to-
day. That should be good news"
Perhaps Captain Fornoff suggested
something wet in order to put dam
per on the ardor of his questioner,
who was endeavoring to elicit from
him some inkling as to what the
mounted police are doing. Yesterday
the officers looked exceedingly
gloomy Today their faces bore cheer
full expressions. Have they reason
for cheering up? A good many Las
Vegas people would like to know.
