.UNCALLED FOR
REMARKS MADE
IN TIE HOUSE
CONSIDERABLE ADVERSE COM
MENT RESULTS FROM MANNER
IN WHICH CERTAIN MEMBERS
SPOKE DURING WOMAN SUI
FRAGE DISCUSSION.
BY FRANK |, HUFFAkER

Tallahass May 5.-Considerable
adverse comment has resulted from
the manner in which certain mem
bers of the house spoke of the work
of the ladies interested in woman sun
rage when that subject was discussed
in the house last Friday. and lndlg-
nation has been expressed by many,
particularly because of the remarks OF
Representative Acosta, of DuVal,
which brought tears to the eyes OF
Miss Jeanneatte Rankin, the young
suffrage worker who was sent down
from the national headquarters at the
request of the Florida women. others
who spoke against submission or the
suffrage amendment resorted 10 the
waving of the bloody shirt, declaring
that the women of the delegation were
northern women, whereas Miss Ran
kin was the only one who is not a
resident of Florida.
REPRESENTATIVE MacWilliams, of st.
Johns, made a good impression when
he replied to the remarks of Mr.. Acos-
ia, which doubtless were unintention-
ally rude. but which were, neVerthe-
less, cutting and uncalled for. his
reference to Miss Rankin as a paid
lobbyist is particularly resented, as
the young woman made a magnificent
impression throughout her stay here,
and has for several years spent neF
own money in working for suffrage.
and has only recently accepted a sal
ary which barely pays her expenses.
Her interest in suffrage has been
aroused mostly by the fact that she
has done a great deal of voluntary
settlement work among the sweatshop
girls Of the large cities, and knows
their needs.
Word received from Jacksonville is
to the effect that the ladies, with re-
Inducements, are coming back to Tai
lahassee to wage a fight in the senate,
and they hope the upper body will
consent to submitting the amendment
TO the people This done, they be-
lieve the sentiment Of the house VIII
be changed.

A REVOLVING CRIME
Blind Tiger Keeper Had Girl
Abducted in Revenge on
Her Father.
4 REVOLVING CRIME
(National News Association)

SALEM, June 20-Frank Sullens
1S year old son of the town marshal,
and Earnest Harrington, aged 25, were
found guilty today of kidnapping Dor
othy Holt, the IA year old daughter of
assistant states attorney Holt on the
night of March 13. Their punishment
was fixed at 25 years each in the peni-
tentiary. The maximum penalty would
have been death.
Harrison Operated Blind Tiger.
After his arrest Sullens confessed
that while intoxicated and at the insti-
cation of Harrison he had seized the
Holt girl while she was on her way
home from moving picture show,
and made her walk mile with him to
a coal mine. There, he asserted, Har-
rison had agreed to receive the girl
and pay him SIS, a bottle of whiskey
and a share of such money as they
might compel her father to pay for
her release.
SuIIens Attacked Girl.
Sullens said he waited an hour but
Harrison did not appear. Then he took
the girl to the city slaughter pen,
where he forcibly kept her all night
After attacking her twice he made her
promise to keep his crime secret,
and then fled. After the crime became
public the blind tigers were raided,
their liquors poured into the cutters
and three companies of national
guards were rushed to Salem and pre-
vented double lynching. For three
days Salem was under martial law,
during which time the prisoners were
secretly taken to Mt Vernon, under in
fantry guard.
The kidnapping of Dorothy was gen.
orally attributed to bitterness caused
by a long fight made against illegal
liquor traffic. Harrison was the keeper
of blind tiger and planned the kid
mapping for revenue.

WOULD ELIMINATE
GRADE CROSSINGS

mendation to Coun-
Gil Monday.
FOR PUBLIC'S SAFETY
Councilman Believes Rail-
road Company Will :
Take Matter Up.
FOR PUBLIC'S SAFETY

An agitation to eliminate railroad
grade crossings in the city will be
started Monday night at the adjourned
meeting of the city council, according
to Councilman Harry Vessel. Mr..
Vessel will recommend to council that
committee be appointed to make an
investigation of the plans for sub
way under the Pennsylvania railroad
at North Tenth street.
Recently it was said that council
would consult the railroad officials in
regard to the construction of a viaduct
over the tracks at Tenth street J. c.
Mccullough, superintendent of the
Richmond division, favors a subway at
that point.
At present there are only five streets
which cross the railroad west of Nine
teenth street. These are all grade
crossings and there is large amount
of switching done on the railroad
tracks across all Of the streets. These
streets are Eighth, Twelfth, Thir-
teenth, Fifteenth and Sixteenth.
SdT LInC GHICHStOn.
Should the subway plan be a sue
cess, Mr.. Vessel and other councilmen
will endeavor to secure a street car
line to the hospital. There has been
many requests made to the street car
company but as there are only grade
crossings over the railroad, the COM
pany has refused to grant the exten-
sion. Alexander Gordon, superintendent
of the local branch of the T. H. I. and
E. traction company, stated recently
that the chances for a street car line
to the Reid Memorial hospital through
Riverdale would be very favorable If
q safe way to cross the railroad tracks
could be found.
The railroad company submitted to
council in 1898, a proposition to ele-
vate the railroad tracks. bridging them
with concrete arches. In 1905, the rail-
road company had plans drawn for the
construction of subways under
Twelfth and Thirteenth streets.
An agitation was started several
years ago to change the grade cross
ing at Eighth and the railroad but City
Engineer Charles and other engineers
say that this is impossible because of
the intersecting of so many streets at
this point. ..........
Vessels Recommendation.

Vessel will submit to council, fol-

last Important Stage.
This marks the last important stage
of the Underwood tariff bill before it
is finally reported to the senate to
become the target for Republican at
tacks. Hundreds of amendments have
been made to the bill. The free list
is greatly extended, and only a few
duties are higher than those imposed
by the house. Despite this, however,
it is calculated that the bill annually
will yield $5,000,000 more revenue than
the bill as passed by the house. Prac-
tically all the changes were the unan-
imous work of the majority members
of the finance committee. The ques-
ton of free print paper was left to
the decision of the caucus. The SEN
ate committee first proposed to admit
free paper valued at cents per pound,
and then retreated to the house max
imum of 2k cents. The caucus will
last about ten days.
