BRISTOw'S RESOLUTION ON BRYAN
TABLED; STORMY SCENE IN SENATE

Washington. July 18.-The SEN
ate Democrats today succeeded In
tabling Senator Bristow's resolution
aimed at Secretary Brysn's proposed
six weeks lecture tour. The resoiu-
tion would have called on President
Wilson to advise the senate what
salary would be sufficient to keep
Mr.. Bryan continuously at his post
and was prompted by the Secretary's 9
public announcement that he was
obliged to augment his pay OF S12.-
900 a year by lectures to meet his
living xepenses.
Senators Poindexter and Bornh
voted with the Democrats to table
the resolution. The vote was Al to
80.
The debate developed u sharp ex-
change between Bristow and Senator
Ashurst when the latter read let
ter intended to show that Bristow
years ago had expressed wish to
be an isthiam canal commissioner,
with the suggestion that he need not
spend much time ION the job"
Since have been a member of
the senate" shouted Bristow, shak-
Ing q finger at Ashurst. ~ have not
spent 800 Of the fnuds Of the Unit
cd State to carry kilograms to my
constituents as has the senator from
Arizona, many of which should have
been paid for by himself"
Senator Ashurst denied the charge
absolutely and dared Bristow to pro-
duce proofs. The whole allegation,
he replied was wholly baseless and

Escaped From Jewell Jail.

A Jail delivery was made Thurs
day night in Jewell by a Webster
City man. John Barker, whose
home for number of years has
been in Webster City, was arrested
in Jewell Thursday evening and
placed in Jail. In the morning when
Marshal Wren appeared at the Jail
the door was open and the prisoner
gone. It seems from reports that
Barker was not alone in Jewell that
night but had a friend with him and
it is supposed the friend aided in the
escape. Wren Immediately phoned
Sheriff Nelson and a lookout for the
prisoner has been kept but no sign
of him has been found. Barker had
been arrested on some minor viola
ton of the law and would no doubt
have only received a small fine, but
under the law, breaking Jail will add
considerable to the charges he will
have to answer. We understand
Barker left this place for Kansas
City, Mo-, with the intention Of re-
naming there permanently.
