WASHINGTON, Feb. 28.—As soon as the ‘gournal was approved in the Senate today Mr. Burrows presented the resolution of centure upon Senators Tillman and Mc- Laurin. Following is the full text of the ‘Tesolution recommended Wy the committee: “That it is the judgment of the Senate that the senators from South Carolina, Benjamin R. Tillman and John L.

They also disagreed to the views of the majority that a Senator might be suspended. The report of the three dissenting Repub- licans, Senators McComas, Pritchard and oe e, submitted by Mr. McComas, as- serted that the offenses of the South Car- olina senators were unequal and the pun- ishment should not be the same. The mi- nority report favored suspension of Mé- ‘Laurin for five days and of Tillman for 20 day Mr. Pritchard did not concur with Mc- Comas and Beveridge, as to infliction of unishment to McLaurin and asserted that fe had already been sufficiently punished. The roll was called on the adoption of the report of the majority. Senators Beveridge, Clarke (Wvyo.), De Dietrich, Foster Wash.), Kittridge, Pritchard, roctor and Scott voted ‘‘No’’ on the reso- lution. It. was carried.

HEMENW AY, Assistant Street Commissioner. Monday morning 25 employes of the street department who are engaged in cleaning the streets in the downtown district will appear in uniforms of white duck.

The uniforms can be wasted at home and a handy housewife can keep her husband ooking as if he had just stepped out of a band box. The coat will be shaped like a The cap will be of a light weight and will béar each man’s number. The two suits, including the cap, will cost each man $2.60. At this price the suits are much ceaper than the suits of blue. They will also last longer. After April 1 we expect to have at least 100 men in white. Of course the number depends on the appropriation the assembly makes for the street department. It is right in line with the idea of a ‘‘new’”’ St. Louls to have the street cleaners in white, and I am sure St. Louis wants to be as metropolitan in appearance as Buffale, De- trolt, Cleveland and New York.

Patrick, for the first time since his arrest, was moved to exclaim against Jones in what sounded like an outburst of honest wrath. Jones was trying to explain to Mr. Moore why, when in the hospital, after his attempt at suicide, he had made a false statement to his attorney, Mr. Battle. ‘What a fiendish liar he 1s,’ cried Pat- rick to a friend in a voice that could be heard several ays away. “When a man will deliberate lie when he sits on his deathbed he re A not hesitate to lie at any Other time, even to swear a man’s life away.’’ — Mocre showed by inference, at least, watoe | Jones had changed his confessions, in each and every instance. The reason, according to the defense, was that owing to his close touch with the dis- trict attorney's office Jones was constantly discovering certain features in his early statements that could not be corroborated. For example, no mention of chloroform was made in the first statement. Jones had asserted that Patrick smothered Rice with unknown drugs. But when the fact was discovered by de- tectives that Patrick hadn't been at the Rice apartments on the fatal Sunday Jones then ‘‘confessed’’ he hag committed the murder with chloroform obtained from a brother in Texas. Ther to connect the mat | with Patrick Jones swore that he “ t to Patrick to keep’’ until needed, when Patrick handed it back. He had testified repeatedly that when he put Chita te.

The captain of the pirate ship walked out f his cabin smoking a cheroot. He was very happy. He had burglarized ten ships in the last two weeks, one mail steamer and nine females. His strong box was full of the goods. He strutted around on deck a bit, and encountered the first mate. “Hello, Cut Throat! How do you like the life?’’ “Well enough, Cap. T m satisfied with my. self, and as long as I’m mate and deliver- ing the mate-rial, I suppose you're satis- fled with me." Continuing in his hanpy frame of mind, the captain determined upon a division of the spoll. He had a long ladder brought out and rested with the ends upon two of the boats. Then he brought . the treasure out. “Now, gentlemen, we're going to have a division of the spoils, The treasure will be poured through this ladder. All that goes through is the share of the. captain, and all that sticks on the rungs goes to the crew.” So they were paid Whic to prove that a pirate chief is a ‘deal like a good many other big concerns. .

CHICAGO, Feb. 28.—A remarkable storm area has overspread the coun- try, with its center in this immediate section. The barometric pressure is less than any previous record and precipitation is quite general trom the Atlantic to the Pacific. Torren- tial rains have fallen in Mississippl, Alabama, Georgia and the South At- lantic states and light rains in the middie Atlantic states, the Ohio valley, the Mississippi valléy from Tennessee northward and on the Pa- cific coast and plateau’ region. Numerous thunderstorms have oc- curred Thursday and Thursday night in the middle Mississippi valley and the south Atlantic states and are prevailing today in the Carolinas and Virginia. Montgomery, Ala., reports 4.40 inches of rain in the past 2% hours and Atlanta 3.62 inches. OPO eeeereeeeeoee eo & PITTSBURG, Pa., Feb. 28.—The great gorges in the Allegheny river are broken and the ice is sweeping down on this city. The first break occurred at Montrose about 8:30 o'clock this morning, and an hour later the gorge near Sandy creek broke with a roar like that of heavy artillery and began to move slowly down the river. Reports at 10 o'clock were that the ice had sorged again at Montrose, Six-Mile ferry and Sharpsburg ans that it was still intact at Brilliant Statio t Montrose it is piled ‘30 feet high from inte to shore. The Freeport road is under two feet of water and all the houses along the road are partly submerged. Rope’s ferry was completely wrecked and two sand boats badly damaged. The lower sections of Verona and Cheswick are under water and many houses flooded. Caught in the swiftly moving ice packs were two steumboats, the D. T. Watson and the George Browdy, a crew of four. The Watson was reported from Montrose fighting her way against the heavy ice in the middle of the river. It is considered extremely doubtful wheth- er she will be able to survive. The Browdy is off the mouth of Sandy Creek In an ex- actly similar position. The residents of the river towns have been warned of the approaching ice, and ey have been made to flee to his er ground in the event of the ice gorg- ng again, causing the river to overflow. The water at this point has only risen about a foot since yesterday, and at IC o'clock the river was free of ice, the head of the gorge not having reached the city. STORM IN GEORGIA. A NTA.

APPROPRIATION NOT STATED. AT LEAST $660,000 A YEAR FOR THREE OR FIVE YEARS. Congressman Joy Wires That Chair- man Burton of Rivers and Har- bors Says the Sum Will Be Satisfactory. Secretary W. F. Saunders of the Business Men’s League received a telegram Friday morning from Congressman Charles F. Joy giving assurance that a satisfactory appropriation will be made for the tmprove- ment of the Mississippi river between St. Louls and Cairo. Congressman Joy wired that he had seen Chairman Burton of the committee having in charge the rivers and harbors bill and that Mr. Burton had said the appropria- tion clause covering the St.’ Louis-Cairo district will make ample provision for the deepening of the channel. While Chairman Burton did not state, of course, the amount of the appropriation agreed upon in committee, it is learned from other sources that the sum will be as large, and probably larger than that named in the bill which passed the House and died in the Senate last year. That appropriation was $660,000 a year for three years. This year the St. Louis con- gressmen and committees from the Business Men’s League and the Merchants’ Ex- change have asked for $1,000,000 a year for five years, with an additicnal appropriation for the operation of dredge boats. Messrs. Joy and Bartholdt have urged this appropriation with persistence, and they have been ably seconded by Congress- men Vandiver, Cooney, Robb and other members of the Missouri delegation. Both Mr. Bartholdt and Mr. Joy are quoted as saying that they have every aa- surance that the appropriation will be at least $660,000 a year for three years, and possibly for five years, An additional sum of $60,000 to improve the lower harbor of St, Louis, Congressman Bartholdt says, will be ‘h the bill. This provides for narrowing the channel from Chouteau avenue to Ca- rondelet. TEACHER DIED ON A TRAIN. Peter Holmes Battled With Consump- tion Bravely, but Uselessly. As the train crossed the Missouril-Arkan- ses line Thursday night Peter B. Holmes of Warrer, Pa., breathed his last. His body was sent to the morgue from Union Station Friday morning. Holmes was alone. He was a school teacher and when consumption developed he left Pennsylvania for Texas and taught at El Paso. This winter the old trouble so asserted itself and Holmes decided to re- turn to Pennsylvania to die. He seemed to have a premonition that he would not live to see the one, of noti- journey's for Thursday he told the conductor that anythi hap Louis J. ones + 2 aga un, near Warren, should be ee ee oT ee NUR Rt ca nants TAREE RR, IS ERE ie ce _ RU RE wea —r ey . ss coum awe , _ eo ee re s x — r i “ cumaphe 2%, —T a “ ~~ cst . a 7 54 - ' “4 ° ie . “> Fur HYSING 35c trimmed, HYSINGER’ Cloaks, hea trimmed tn LINEN lined a ngora Homespun Dress Ski handsomely corded, ee serpentine effect Se Hysinger’s Cloaks 10¢ to 506 On the Dollar.
