ANOTHER INQUIRY
Question Now Raised as to
the Election of MIR.
Stephenson.

With the burden of the Lorimer case
still ON its hands the Senate Commit
tee on Privileges and Elections is con-
fronted with the prospect of having TO
investigate another Senatorial election.
Senator Isaac Stephenson Of Wtscon-
sin, Is the member of the Senate the
Investigation of whose election is a pos
sibility. Word reached the Capitol this
afternoon that the special committee Of
the Wisconsin senate which was select
ed at the last session of the Legislature
to investigate the methods employees
in the election of Senator Stephenson
had made it's report.
. The report, or at least one OF the
reports Of the committee is adverse
to the Senator, charges that corrupt
practices were used and urges the
Legislature to take steps to lay all
of the evidence before the Senate Of
the United States with a demand for
an investigation.
Should the Legislature send any evil
dence to the Senate which would re-
ffect on the methods used in the cleo
ton Of Senator Stephenson 1t would
be the duty of the Privileges and
Elections Committee to look into 1t.
Any matter of this kind would be re-
ferred to this committee. If no reso-
luton of the Senate We're passed di-
recting the committee to Investigate
1t would devolve on the committee
itself to INQUIRE into the facts and
make a report to the Senate with re-
lation to the seriousness of the
charges.

TWO MORE FIRES

Citizens May Appeal to Gov

Militia.

ANNAPOLIS. Md, Jan. 1.-Two
more fires this morning, both ap-
parently of incendiary origin, made
the total in Annapolis seven since
Christmas and the fact that one of
the houses fired is a residence has so
alarmed citizens that Governor Croth-
ers may. be asked to call out de-
tachment of State militia to patrol
the town.
The first fire. shortly after midnight,
was in a stable off Calvert street
owned by Edward Weiss, and 1t is
suspected that 1t was started to di-
vert attention from the second fire.
discovered at 1890 o'clock, in the resi-
dence of Lieut.. Franklin d. Karns, on
Maryland avenue. Both fires were ex-
tinguished before great damage had
been done.
Lieutenant Karns is absent on sea
duty, and will not return to Annap-
oils until Friday, and 1t is believed
that incendiaries took advantage of
the lack of protection of the house,
in which only Mrs. Karns and her
family were staying. to try to de-
stroy 1t.
The Kains residence was fired, it is
evident, with paper thrust through
the shutters of the window and
ignited. Matches were found under
the windows.

JAPANESE ADMIRAL
AAAZES OFFICIALS
Criticism on Fortifying Pan
anna Canal Leads to
Controversy.

Officials OF the army. navy. and State
Department were overwhelmed with
surprise today at the reported state
ment of the japanese naval officer, Ad-
miral Yashiro, at Panama, crtticising
President Taft's policy for fortifying the
canal as a great mistake upon the
part of the United States Government.
The military officials were unanimous
in refusing to be quoted on what they
consider so serious a breach of inter-
national etiquette until they have re-
ceived official information of the re-
marks accredited to the Japanese ad-
miral.
No American officer. it was said.
would be tolerated in the United States
service If he ever committed such a
serious blunder as has been attributed
to Admiral Yashiro.
It is the opinion OF officers that un-
less Japan takes immediate steps to
ascertain whether Admiral 'Yashiro was
correctly quoted or not, and II he did
make such criticism TO mete out to him
severe punishment. the Incident VIII
soon become a subject of diplomatic in
tercourse.
II is believed that the United States
Government will feel constrained to
ask Japan If she intends to permit her
naval officers abroad to cr1ticise the
military operations or plans of other
nations.
Army officers who have had much TO
do with the plans for Notifications OF
Panama were particularly resentfui OF
the unvarnished criticism OF the plans
for defending the canal. What busi-
ness is 1t Of his?" asked one officer, and
his sentiment was shared by others.
It is expected that steps will be taken
IN Washington to ascertain from canal
authorities II Admiral Yashiro really
said that il would be a mistake to for
tify the canal Further action OF this
Government will depend on the report
of Colonel Goethals, whose guest Ad-
miral Yashiro has been during the
visit of the Japanese squadron.
