New York Banquet

NEW WORK, Feb. .1S.-President
Elect Wilson came to New York. to
right after an exhaustive days work
in the state house in Trenton. 1t had
been understood he would attend the

the evening at the home Of friends.
Wilson today worked in the seclus.
ion of The state house, escaping the
turmoil which nearly 1900 suffragettes
brought when invading the capitol.
Few got to the governors office
where a number of visitors gathered.
He was caught in a jam OF suffrag-
cites at the station, while trying to
get aboard special train for New
York city.
iEnroute Senator Elect Shafroth, of
Colorado, registered the endorsement
of Former Governor Adams OF Colo

Lono list of bills on third reading

Senate's amendments to Anti-Cig-

to committee.
Liquor Inspection bill causes flare.
up in the House. and sharp personal
reference prevails.
Liquor bill re.referred to committee
on temperance.
House adjourns at 5:45 o'clock.
Something certainly was uncorked
when house bill No. 284, known as the
liquor inspection bill, was taken under
consideration by the house as COM
mittee of the whole Tuesday alter
noon, and thde bitter remarks which
accompanied the discussion were not
confined to consideration of the bill
alone, but were uncomfortably person
al. -a.
Representative WARDROBE, who in
troduced the bill, moved that
it be recommended for passage. and
Representative Wiley moved that it
be referred to the committee on tenn
perance for consideration.
Mr.. Campbell declared that it would
seem to him the temperance COM
mittee was the proper one to have re-
ferred it to in the first place. instead
of sending it to the committee on ju-
dietary. He said; the house is wasting
too much time with nonsensical bills,
and he considered this bill, the anti
cigarette measure and the antisnuff
bill in that class. He recommended
that the committee on temperance be
given an opportunity to consie rit.
Representative Hjelmstad objected
however, saying: 1--WE temperance
people prefer to have it fought out
right here in the house and now"
Mr.. Martin said it was too good a
bill to go to the temperance commit
tee and it should be referred to the
committee of the whole upon general
orders.
coItom "starts Something"
Representative Coltom touched off
the fireworks by remarking that he
thought the majority of the members
OF the temperance committee were
whisky people, and he concluded by
asserting that ut is a black spot on
the state to have such chairman as
we have on the prohibition commit
tee"
Representative Streeter declared
that he would favor purely inspec-
ton bill, but he could not lend sup
port to any false pretenses."
Mr.. WARDROBE said it had been care
fully considered by the committee on
judiciary. and it had been so widely
advertised that every man in the
house knew just where he was at and

ton Of Indians, from Elbowoods will
leave that place In a day or so for

with President Taft and officials OF

parties. 1t is said, however, that the
indians are opposed to such a plan,
and that they want the coal land open

NARROW ESCAPE FOR
knight TEMPLARS
ispecial TO The Tribune. )

MlNOT, N. D., Feb. 1S.-A hurried
exit from the burning Masonic Temple
was all that saved the lives Of a score
,of Knight Templars when the lodge
rooms and the Mccoy store were
damaged to the extent of $25,000 Mon
day night.
Most of the damage to the stock in
the store from smoke and water.
The fire is supposed to have started
from an electric flatiron left with the
current turned on in the rear part Of
the store.
The theory is that heat engendered
from the iron started the fire in near
by clothes and communicated to the
rest of the building.
A wild scramble for safety on the
part Of the lodge nemOers ensued as
soon as signs Of fire were discovered

RATS ATTACK BABY IN CRIB
Six-Months-Old Infant Bitten and Gnawed During Mothers
 Absence.

lphia.-Left alone by his mother all afternoon and evening, six months-old Frederick Brogden, colored, was attacked by rats as he lay in a crib at his parents home, 229 South Warwick street.
 The puny struggle the infant was able to make proved to be little pro- lection against the vicious rodents, and when the mother, Mrs Mary B. Brog- den, finally did return she found her baby with the ends of five of his fin gers chewed off, both ears gnawed, and his body lacerated by the teeth of the rats, several of which jumped from the crib and scampered across the floor as she entered the room.
 Mrs. Brogden's cries attracted the attention of neighbors, who, on learn ing what had happened, summoned an ambulance and i1 1t the infant, semi conscious from pain and loss of blood. and in serious condition from shock, was removed to the Jefferson hospital, where 1t was said he would recover.
