WOMAN SUFFRAGE DEFEATED.
Last week Witnessed the defeat OF
/ two proposed electoral reforms, one
being the Grant resolution for wo-
man suffrage, and the other the
Toler resolution providing four year
terms for executive and eight year
terms for judicial officers, with no
second terms, and for the recall on
the petition of 81 percent of the
qualified electors of officials who are
proven recalctrant or corrupt
representative Hurst of Washing
ton, led the fight against botn the
resolutions, declaring them Social
istc and a species of demagoguery,
| The = olar resolution was defeated,
| by vote of 20 to 50
The Grant resolution for equal
suffrage was debated an entire after
noon, and a motion by Hurst to
table was lost by vote Of 40 to AZ.
The principal addresses were div
cred by Representatives Grant,
Ragon and Baker, and against it BY
Clarke of Lonoke, Hurst, Brown
and Hardage
Mr.. Hurst insisted that it had
been introduced IN a spirit of fun,
while Hardage killed it etfectually
when he asserted that a dangerous
"joker" lurked in its inocent
phrases, which would disfranchise
the men if were adopted. and turn
the government over wholly to the
women. On the final roll.call to in
definitely postpone, the resolution
received only the unlucky thirteen
votes
Another radical change in the law
which the lawmakers declared was
too far advanced for our present
state of civilization. was the bill
introduced by Senator Christian
providing for the abolition of cap
ital punishment. Senator Martin
favored the bill, declaring that to
take human life by law is a relic of
barbarism unjustihed by Christ
ianity Senator Green said to re-
move the certainty of punishment
would be to encourage crime, and
Senator Henderson urged that il
would increase lynching, "the most
heinous of all crimes, which is due
more than anything else to the laA
enforcement of the law" A motion
by Senator Coyington to indefinitely
postpone was carried, l5 to 13.

ray this country with England against
Germany In the present Moroccan
difficulties, and be an insult to every
German and Irish American of the
country, was declared in resolutions
passed tonight at a protest meeting

Various speakers among whom we're
Congressman James Curley and Mat

Ancient order of Ilibernlans, declar-
ed the proposed treaty was one Of al
lance, and made unjust discrimination
In favor OF Great Britain aud against
all other nations. Congressman Cur
ley said the treaty had u clause which
declared that this country should
make no treaties with foreign nations
without the consent Of Great Britain
and he considered il delegated the
rights Of the United States senate TO
a commission Of which hair the meme

An opinion contrary to the resolu-
tion was offered by Christopher lroor-

societies, who questioned the authori-

German-Americans as whole.

Washington d. c., July 29.-The
midsummer work of the United

lessening in conservation activities.
During the month of June the land
classification board of the Survey ap-
praised l74,91O acres as coal land in
the western states, placing valuation
thereon of $3,2S9, 369. At the mimi
mum price under which these lands
could nave been sold before the pres
ent regulations We're in force, this
same area would have brought only
$l,932,l7a. During June the Survey
also classified 1,4l5,4l5 acres as nom
coal land and transmitted the findings
to the General Land office so that the
land might be restored to the public
domain. These classifications were
based on the field examinations or the
Survey geologsts.
There have now been classified un-
der the present administration. in 40
acre tracts, 16,S73,370 acres as coal
land, with the valuation of $71l,992,-

Halifax, n. $, July 30.-The new
Canadian navy was nearly deprived
Of half its strength today when the
flagship Niobe crashed on the lodges
on the southwest end of Cape Sable.
Five hours later she floated, leaking
badly, and proceeded under her own
power to Shag harbor, ten miles away
where she is anchored with six
iathoms Of water and soft mud bot
tom under her.
The first to reach the side of the
disabled cruiser was the United
States revenue cutter Androscoggin
which was cruising in the vicinity.
The Niobe's wireless call for held was
picked up by the Androscroggin
which promptly flashed back that she
would stand by to hefp.
Through the dense fog and heavy
sea, which is believed to have been
the cause. of the accident, the Andros-
coggin rushed and was standing by
the Canadian cruiser when the
Canadian government steamers Lady
Laurer and Stanley arrived from ST.
John, n. b.. with the tug McNaugh-
ton Of Yarmouth
The Niobe, however. found that she
was able to take care of herself AL
though water was pouring into sever
al compartments her pumps kept her
fairly clear and Commander McDon-
aid Of the cruiser expressing his
thanks to the American cutter for her
help, proceeded to safe harbor con-
veyed only by the tug.

SAILORS RESCUED AFTER
NIGHT IN OPEN BOATS

Halifax, July 3U--'rhe protected
crusler, Niobe, flagship of the Can
adian navy was saved to the Domin-
ions young sea strength after being
impaled for five hours on the south
west ledgcs of Cape Sable. early to-
day, Her hull was pierced in sew
eral places, the starboard engine
room swamped with water and other
compartments flooded No lives were
lost.
The exact means of the release Of
the Niobe are not known here, but it
is supposed she floatcd on a rising
tide
Commander Mcdonald, who is in
command OF the cruiser. anchored
the Niobe in a safe position some dis
lance from the scene Of her mishap,
awaiting the arrival of the govern
mcnt steamers, Lady I.aurier and
Stanley which We're dispatched to her
assistance early this morning from
st. John.
The cause of the accident is not
known, but heavy fog cnshrouded
the coast, and 1t is said that there was
a southeast gale blowing.
Sixteen of the crew who left the
cruiser in two boats were the cause
Of much anxiety for hours after the
accident as they were lost in the fog
and at the mercy of the gale and
strong tide, which it was feared would
wreck them on one of the many ledg
es that abound about Cape Sable. IT
was learned by wireless tonight. how
ever that all had rcjoned their ship.
Ihey went back to the cruiser in one
boat, the other apparently having
been wrecked.
So extreme was considered the
plight Cf the Niobe when the ship
llrst grounded that Commander Nc
Donald ordered all boats cleared
away, ready for abandonment of the
vessel if necessary. The two boats
which were lost for time with their
crews we're the first over the side,
general launching of the boats hav'
ing been deferred until definite idea
OF the condition of the vessel had been
gained.
The Niobe piled up on the south
west ledge at 1885 this morning
while rounding Cape Sable, on her re-
turn to her home port from Yar-
mouth, where her officers and crew
mad been participating in an old
"ome week celebration.

ITALIAN VICTIM OF
OLD WORLD FEUO
Young Man Shot Down by AS
Sassins in New York; Third of
His Family 10 Meet Tragic
Death in Three Years,
tBy Morning journal special Leased Wire,

New York, July 30.--A battery of
two double harreled shotSuns from
all four barrels of which sixteen
heavy lead slugs were fired simultane-
ously, is believed, by detectives to
have been the trap laid by assassins
of Bartholdl Cardinal. aged thirty
two.
The young Italian was hit in the
neck and instantly killed while sit
ting at his window on the second floor
opposite a vacant house. Two
sluSs We're found imheddcd in the
wall near where Mrs Cardinal sat
but she was unhurt.
The discovery of two discharged
sho. guns in the vacant house, foot
prints on the .dust covered carpet and
the fact that Cardinals brother was
assassinated three years ago are the
principal clews.
An uncle John Cardinal, also was
shot to death in his Brooklyn home
a year ago. A shotgun found the next
day bore a threat booming all the
males Of the Cardinal family to
death. The detectives believe the
murders are the outcome of family
feud which began in Sicily.
