made to secure a remedial enactment
before the adjournment Of congress
II Is frankly confessed that any
suggestion of changing the applica
ton of the illiteracy test will meet
with considerable opposition in the
house. 1t may be found impossible
Ito secure action there Present indi
cations are that much time will
, elapse before Hawaii is excepted
from the new provisions. In fact
/ friends Of the correction are not now
hopeful of success.
Dillingham; Tells Story
The failure to except Hawaii from
the stipulations contained in the new
law is illustrative of the loose meth,
eds sometimes employed in legislat
ing. The story was related to the
Star-Bulletin correspondent by Sen
ator Dillingham;, who framed the
original measure. 1t is:
The Dillingham; immigration bill
made the educational test not apple.
able to Hawaii He then realized that
as the bringing in of Chinese and
Japanese coolies was otherwise pro-
hibited ii became essential to secure
labor elsewhere. Just before the bill
reached a vote in the senate a substi-
tute for the educational requirement
was proposed by Senator Simmons.
Mr.. Dillingham; feaped to his feet, as
he had never seen the substitute and
knew nothing about it.
Senator Lodge was sitting near and
called to Mr. Dillingham;, saying he
had carefully read the Simmons
amendment and # was all right He
told Mr.. Dillingham; to let 1t 90.
Later, 1t was discovered, that no
exception had been made Of Hawaii.
Mr.. Simmons said he had intended to
include the necessary phrase, but
forgot it. .s..'... 8.
Senators Dillingham;, Lodge and
Simmons all requested the house COM
mittee on immigration to make a
change in the educational test clause
and except Hawaii. Chairman Bur-
nett took the matter up and gave hear
ings, which were attended by repre-
sentatiyes of Hawaiian interests.
1t was subsequently determined by
the house committee to accept the
Simmons amendment as 1t stood. The
matter was thus barred from discus
sion of modification in conference.
The rules prohibit consideration OF
any feature not in dispute between
the two branches of Congress. 1t thus
followed that although other sections
of. the bill were rewritten and whip
ped into compromise shape the eduea-
tional test paragraph remained pre-
eisely as drafted by Mr.. Simmons.
Burnett 10 Against Plan.
The situation in Hawaii was fully
explained to Representative Burnett
ky Senators Lodge and Dillingham;, but
be was not tconversant with matters
in that Territory. His answer was
that If the homestead laws were
amended it would be possible to secure
desirable immigrants for Hawaii and
the necessity for bringing in Hitter
ates would be removed. He could not
be made 10 realize that large proper
lion OF the productive wealth Is locat-
ed in the output of sugar cane and
high-grade labor was not available for
its cultivation.

bill would be prepared at once and

Minister Predicts
Baldwin Wedding
to Trouble Church
RECTOR WHO PER
FORMS CEREMONY FOR MAN
DIVORCED BY AGREEMENT,

NEW YORK. Dec. a.-4wilbur Bald
win. whose wife permitted him to d.
vorce her that he might wed her old
time school chum and life compantoA
Miss Lillian Duryea, came to New York
today from Nyaek, and with his bride
to-be went to the church of the Holy
Communion. There, at noon. the cou-
pie were married by the Rev. Henry
Mottet.
Meantime, Mrs. Wilbur Baldwin. frst
who was Miss Ethel Campbell. of
Nyack, was said to be on the verge of
prostration in her home. With her was
her fifteen-year- son, Raymond.
At least one Episcopal minister at
Nyack refused fatty to marry Mt
Baldwin to Miss Duryea. He was Rev.
Franklin Babbitt, who for half cen
fury has included the members Of Miss
Duryea's family in his congregation
Others Approached.
Gossip at Nyack has IT that other
ministers were approached by Mr..
Baldwin. and that they as well declined
TO perform the ceremony. whether
this is true is not known, but IL is
at least certain that DR.. Rabbit not
only refused to marry the couple, but
went further and stated publicly that
he hoped none Of his brethren would
undertake the ceremony.
1t WAS about ten days ago that Mr..
Baldwin, discouraged In his efforts to
be married in his home town. journeyed
to New York and called on Bishop
Greer This fact became known today
He inquired IL there was any reason
why he could not be married by an
Episcopal minister.
Referred to Council.
Bishop Greer did not pass on the
case himself. but as Is the custom
In the Episcopal Church. referred the
matter to counsel His attorney in
formed him in writing that there was
no reason why his consent should be
necessary before q minister OF the Epis-
copal faith could rightfuiIy perform
the ceremony.
So today. armed with a copy of this
opinion. Mr.. Baldwin and his fiancee.
went 10 the church OF the Holy Com
munion. which is not far from, Bishop
Greer's ONCE. and were married.
1t seems likely that the marriage
may create trouble In the Episcopal
Church. Anyway. that was the opinion
of DR.. Rabbit who did not hesitate
to say when informed tonight Of the
wedding. that he did not believe the
marriage could have legally taken
place under the eanens of the Church.

Challenges Right
of Mulhall' S Friend
to Seat in House
BULL MOOSE CONG II ID s NJ N
GOES AFTER JAMES II.
McDErRMOTT.

WASHINGTON. Dec. 9.-The right
Of Representative James r. McDer-
mott. of the Fourth Illinois district,
whose name was mentioned in an I'M
enviable manner in the Mulhall
charges, to hold his seat in congress,
was challenged in a resolution pre-
scented in the house today by Repre-
sentative w J. Macdonald. a Bull
Moose member from Michigan.
Mr.. Macdonald offered another reso-
luton proposing to adjudge in con-
tempt OF the house certain officers of
the National Association Of Manu-
facturers. whose activities before COM
mtttees of congress were disclosed In
the report fled by the special COM
mittee created by the house ii probe
charges made by Colonel Martin M.
Mulhall
The house was thrown into an up
roar as the resolution affecting Mr..
McDermott Ia for all practical pur-
and alleges In effect that he has bee n
guilty of conduct that warrants his
expulsion from congress.
On motion OF Chairman Garrett, the
Macdonald resolution. together with
the committees report on the Mulhall
charges. were finally referred to the
committee on the judiciary, which will
advise the house whether McDermott
should be expelled. censured or cx-
onrated.
The committee likewise will advise
the houss as TO what action should be
taken on the Macdonald resolution
which characterizes AZ vicious" and
proper" certain lobbying activities
OF officers OF the National Association
OF Manufacturers.
McDermott was among those pres
ent when Representative Macdonald
arose TO touch off the fireworks. Nc
Dermott's face turned as red as the
proverbiaI lobster as he followed the
dennnciation OF Macdonald. who de-
clared that the charges made against
tbs Illinois member were serious
enough to warrant further snvestsga-
ton. and that II true. MFR. McDermott
should be Severely punished.

jefferson Gardens. north of Ginter
Park, who Is believed to have been
murdered on Bloomingdale farm in
cold blood shortly after / o'clock yes
terday afternoon.
All trains out of Richmond last
night, after the Richmond police were
notified, were watched, but the slayer
was not apprehended.
So far as lis known by members of
the family and by his employer the
Staying of Eddie Kelley was without
provocation- A certain mystery that
is battling the police of both the coun-
ty and the city surrounds the killing.
Bloodhounds Useless.
Though bloodhounds from the State
farm were called into play by the
county officers last night, In the hope
that the slayer might be traiied. there
was no result. the dogs being unable
TO take the scent. SO many persons

Bloomingdale farm, that the dogs
could not pick up trail.
The county police, exhausting every
clue in their territory during the early
evening. last night appealed to the
police OF Richmond for aid In running
to cover the slayer OF the Kelley boy.
Because of a hold-up on the Brook
road last night by a negro wearing
black fur cap--a negro said to be
about tYenty-two or twenty-three
years old, and about six feet tali--the
police connected the murder with the
hold-up. and effort was made IN Rich
mond between 10 o'clock ard mid
night to locate negro q this de-
scription.
All trains outgoing were closely
watched. but no negro of the de-
scription given could be found.

Duke, who, for. some time, has been
in the employ of the Bloomingdale
farm, and who was working with
young Kelley when he was killed yes
terday afternoon. Duke was taken to
