REPUBLICANS IN SENATE

Alarmed over the possibility of passing
the wool tariff revision bill over the an
ticipated veto of the President the re-
publican leaders of the Senate were en-
gagged today in an effort to bring all the
absent republican senators to the city be-
fore next week
Word has gone out that the bill could
be passed through the House regardless
of the Presidents objections, and senator's
have taken the position that it may be
up TO them to save the situation and pre-
vent precipitate action in favor of the
bill at this session. The vote by which
the House passed the bill was 22O to 100.

body under any circumstances.
The vote in the Senate was 4s to s.
This is by no means d sufficient num-
ber to pass the bill over a veto, but
the possibility in case of the absence
of number of republicans was
deemed sufficient today to arouse the
caution of those on guard. Sixty votes
would be necessary TO pass over a veto
in case of the attendance of all SEN
ators. The forty democrats and thir-
teen progressive republicans. together

bill originally, would aggregate fifty

NEW BEATTIE CASE HORROR.
Detectives Claim Prisoner Knocked
Wife Down Before Shooting Her.

RICHMOND, Va. August 3.-An al
legged new development in the Beattie
murder case is the most hideous phase of
the mystery yet brought out, if it shall
prove TO be founded on fact. The detec-
tives investigating the case are said to
have been brought to the irresistible con-
clusion that Henry c. Beattie. jr., knock
ed his wife down and stood on her pros
trate body when h& fired the fatal shot
if he did fire it. of course.
While this alleged development does not
increase the degree of murder-if murder
be proven-it certainly adds an element
of fiend .shness which renders the ca Sc
the most CHASTITY in the annals of the
state.
Beulah Binford, Beattie's affinity,
wrote from the Jail today a statement
in correction of newspaper allegations
that she had been harshly treated by de-
tectives in the way of "grilling and the
third degree" She says her treatment
on all hands since her incarceration has
been all that could be desired under the
circumstances.

SENATE DELAYS ACTION
ON LOAN SHARK" BILL
Senator Curtis Makes Effort
to Have 1t Considered, But
Motion to Adjourn Prevails.

An effort was made by Senator Curtis

committee. to get the loan shark bill
afternoon, after the vote on reapportion-
peared that he would be successful q
motion TO adjourn prevailed
The Senate was in a peculiar parlia-
mentary tangle when the loan shark bill
received attention, and the suggestion
that 1t be considered caused still greater
commoton in the chamber.
After the passage of the reapportion-
ment bill the Senate was at sea to
what it would do. There was doubt
as to whether or not the statehood
resolution which is to be voted on
Monday, could be made the unfinished
business, to come up each day for con-
sideration until after 2 o'clock and
some suggested that the Senate should
stay in session an hour longer, or un-
til after that hour. to fix the status
of that resolution definitely.
Loan Shark Bill Appears.
The calendar was put forth to occupy
the time but the first bill on it was that
troublesome loan shark bill. Senator
Hepburn asked that it be passed over.
Senator Curtis was not to be outdone by
one single objection, and he moved that
the bill be considered. notwithstanding
the objection. Mr.. Hepburn looked
around the chamber and failed to lind

there being, however, few responses. \

of Missouri. but there were not a suffi-
