Champ Clark and the Woodrow Will

or, dividing their eight votes among
four candidates. The result was tie,

An effort was made to make the Sc

one OF the committeeman shifting.
Clark and Wilson speakers said that
while they had great respect for Judge
Parker they could not vote for him.

Colonel John j. Martin, sergeant-at-

the greatest in which the national
Democratic party has ever assembled,
The great auditorium seats many
more Democrats than the Chicago au-
dtorium seats Republicans. There is
30 per cent. more room here than in
Chicago. There is room for 5000 more
people TO hear the Democratic pro-
ceedinps than heard The Republican
proceedings. There is room, and bet
ter room. for twice as many newspa-
per men as Chicago provided for.

Unanimous Vote 10 Bring Pro-
Ceedings Against Jurist.
IRREGULARITIES CHARGED
Senate Will Act as Court in Case Of
Accused Commerce Bench Member
Action Non-Psrtisan, but Report
Viii Be Made After Next Week.

Washington With not a dissenting
voice the House committee on Judici-
airy voted 70 impeach Judge Robert
W. Archibald of the Commerce Court.
The action followed formal hearings
held for several weeks past in the
committees inquiry into charges pre-
ferred against the Judge.
It was announced that the commit
tee vote to impeach Judge Archibald
was unanimous. The resolution for
impeachment had been pending for
some days.
The charges in effect accuse Judge
Archibald of profiting pecupiarily
through trafticking with the power Of
his office apd his influence with the
anthracite coal carrying railroads.
The judiciary committee recommen-
dation will be presented in the House
and, If adopted there, the House will
ask the Senate to institute the inn.
peachment trial.
That the committee had decided on
the action was indicated when an ac.
tive canvass was made Of it's members
to ascertain who would be willing to
act as prosecutors of the Judge before
the Senate, Under the constitution
the House can have five managers in
the impeachment proceedings before
the Senate, which acts as a court.
In executive sessions recently held
the House committee considered the
reports Of it's subcommittee on vari-
Gus phases of the testimony taken in
the Archibald case. At the head of
these subcommittee were Represen.
tatives Webb Floyd Norris and Ster-
ling.
Alleged business transactions un-
dertaken by Judge Archibald through
his supposed partner, f.. w. Williams,
with the officers of the Lehigh, the
Erie the Delaware & LaCkawanna and
other railroads to secure favored
treatment in the matter of leases of
coal refuse dumps figured in the com.
mittee hearings.
Promssory notes given by or to
Judge Archibald from which, il was
said he profited without assuming
liability for their payment, also fig.
ured in the report of the committee
and were said to form the basis of the
impeachment report recommendation.
Friends of Judge Archibald said they
would oppose the impeachment resolu.
tion on the grounds. that these fnan.
cial transactions were legal and that
the testimony that the judge was to
profit personally was indirect and
from unreliable witnesses.

commemorative United States, Great
Britain, France, Germany, Russia and
Japan-facing a most serious situa-

Russia. which seemed a week ago TO
be in an almost impossible strategic
position, is now apparently holding
the whip hand.
1t is learned that Russia, objecting
to the refusal Of the powers to grant
her a privileged position in Mongolia
and Northern Manchuria, has on her
own account offered an immediate ad-
vance to China of $50,000,000, with
the promise that she will provide the
remainder of the $300,000,OO0 from
time to time as needed to finance the
new republic.

was surprised when he answered a

to see the young man waiting on the

Four Dollars for a Cake Of SOAP.

Soap has never been considered an
extravaganza, but now that notion
may change since the new French
imported soaps are costing from two
to three and four dollars a cake. They
are. however deliciously scented, and
one may take pardonable pleasure in
using such toilet article. Each cake
comes in a little box, and is satin
covered; they are quite a suitable item
for the travelling bag of the bride, for
which the most exquisite trifles. are
always sought out.
