The Objecting Congressman Caught In
an Odd Predicament.

LEGISLATIVE BOOMERANG.

The Beer Tax Amendment to the. Filled
Cheese Bill Suffers Defeat In the
Senate—A Plan to Improve '
I the Consular Service.

WASHINGTON, May 28.—-The conference
report on the bill for the relief of bona
fide settlers of Northern Pacific indemnity
lands was adopted in the house today aft-
er some criticism of its provisions by Mr.
MoRae (Dem., Ark. ). _

Mr. Kern (Pop., Nah), who has been
objecting to every request for unanimous
consent for ten days, was very neatly
trapped today. . Mr. Mundell Rep, Wy.)
was recognized by the spea or to ask
unanimous consent for the ' consideration
of a senate resolution directing the score-
tary of the interior to resume work upon
and issue patents to the Union Pacific
Railroad company without delay to all
lands sold by that company to bona fide
purchasers in western Nebraska, North
Dakota, Wyoming and Utah. This is a
bill in which Mr. Kem’s constituents are
vitally interested, and the resolution pre-
sented to him was very embarrassing. He
was obliged to either surrender or Object
to a bill of interest to his constituents.
He hesitated, but finally stood by his guns
Mr. Mundell then arose to
aquestion of personal privilege and in-
creased Mr. Kem’s embarrassment by
pointing out that 25,000 people were in-
terested in this resolution and that 5,000
of them resided in Mr. Kem’s district.
Mr. Kern raised the point that Mr. Mun-
dell's statement did not constitute a ques-
tion of privilege, a point which the speaker
sustained.

Mr. Kern frantically sought to secure a
rulin of the chair that would exclude
from he Congressional Record Mr. Mun-
dell’s remarks. His anxiety on this point
tickled the members immensely, and
there was a loud laugh when Mr. Cannon
observed to Mr. Kern that it did not make
any difference whether the remarks went
into the record or not; they would go in
the newapapers.

Mr. Mahon’s motion, which came over
from yesterday, to concur in the senate
amendments to the deficiency bill appro-
priating about $2,000,000 for the payment
of French spoliation and Bowman act
claims was then considered.

Mr. Cannon (Rep, Ills), chairman of
the appropriations committee, made vigor-
ous Opposition to concurring in these
amendments.

Mr. Muhon in supporting his motion
said that he favored this method of secur-
ing the payment of these claims because
there was no other way to obtain action on
them. These claims, he said, were all on
the calendar, but the calendars of the
house were veritable graveyards.

In the Senate.

A partial conference report on the
naval appropriation bill, not including
the items of new warships, was agreed to
in the senate today.

Mr. Quay suggested that the senate
take another vote on the item of battle-
ships. The number was reduced from four
,to two by the senate, but Mr. Quay. Who
is one of the conferees, desired a further
vote with a view to receding from the
senate change.

Mr. Hale, in charge of the bill. asked
that the vote be deferred until after a fur-
ther conference, and Mr. Quay assented. ”

At 12:15 p. m. the senate went into
executive session on motion of Mr. Harris
(Dem., Tenn).

The open session was resumed at 1
o’clock, and on motion of Mr. Sherman
the filled cheese bill with the pending beer
tax amendment was taken up. The vote
on the amendment was begun without
further debate, and it was defeated -yeas,

Rules of the Road at Sea.

WASHINGTON, May 28.—-.The American
delegates to the international maritime
conference will assemble in this city to
consider what action shall be taken upon
aproposition of the British government
offering an amendment to that section Of
the rules of the road at sea which was
found objectionable by that government
and led to its refusal to adhere to the
scheme arranged by the last conference
and the consequent failure of the presi-
dent of the United States to put the rules
into operation. If the British proposal
shall be found acceptable, an earnest ef-
fort will be made to secure the enactment
of the revised rules by the present con-
gress. Notwithstanding the difficulty in
securing action at this late day in the ses-
sion, it is hoped by the commissioner of
navigation, who is pushing the matter,
that in view of the supreme importance
of having some uniform rules for the
avoidance of collisions of ships at sea, con-
gress can be induced to enact the neces-.
sary legislation at once.

 

Explorations In Africa.

WASHINGTON, May 28.—Profesor Daniel

Dodson, who accompanied Dr. Donaldson
Smith on his recent expedition to Lake
Rudolph, in central Africa, arrived at

nizance of the recent executive order in-
cluding the consular service in the classi-
fied list, but say that it provides only par-
tially for that service.

The River and Harbor Bill.

WASHINGTON, May 28.—There is good
reason to believe that the river and harboi
bill will be vetoed by the president. Sec-
retary Lamont, having returned to Wash-
ington from New York, has been consult

DUNHAM KILLED 31x PERSONS.

A Terrible Crime Near San Jose—Colonel
McGlincy’s Family the Victims.

SAN JOSE, 031., May 28.—-—Colonel R.
P. McGlincy and wife, their daughter,
Mrs. James Dunham; James Wells, a son
of Mrs. McGlincy; a hired woman, Min-
nie Schesler, and a hired man, James
Briscoe. were killed at Campbell by James
Dunham, a son-in-law of Colonel McGlin-
cy, who made his escape.

A neighbor named Page heard shots in
the direction of the McGlincy home. Al-
most immediately thereafter came the
sound of galloping boots on the road.
Hurriedly dressing, Page went to the
home Of the McGlincys and was horrified
to find the body of McGlincy lying in an
outhouse in a pool of blood. Entering the
house, he found the bodies of James Wells,
who had been shot; Mrs. McGlincy and
her daughter, who had been; stabbed to
death, and the hired man and girl, who
had been hacked to death with a hatchet.
The interiors of the rooms where the bodies
of the victims lay were sputtered with
blood, and there was every evidence that
the dead persons had made a desperate
struggle for their lives.

Page, finding that all were beyond help,
notified the authorities in this city. One
of the ofiElcers who has returned to the city
said: “The scene at the McGlincy home is
fearful almost beyond the powers of de«
scription. In the reception room was
found the body of Wells. Evidently a ter-
rible struggle had taken place between
Wells and the assassin. Wells Was shot
two or three times. In the reception room
adjoining no bodies were found, but the
furniture was literally smashed into frag-
ments, showing that a fearful fight had
taken place there. Adjoining the dining
room was the apartment occupied by Mrs.
McGlincy. There she was found literally
cut to pieces with a hatchet. Blood was
everywhere, and, as in the room of Wells,
there were evidences of a terrible struggle
having taken place between the poor wom.
an and her son-in-law. The other victims
were found in other apartments.”

The last seen of Dunham he was riding
rapidly toward San Jose on horseback.
Family troubles are said to have caused
the murders. The only person in the
house who escaped alive was a baby 1
month old, the child of Mrs. Dunham.

Colonel McGlincy was one of the Cali-
fornia commissioners to the World’s fair

at Chicagou

A Nuisance Revived.

Some months since the police suc-
ceeded in breaking up a rabble of boys
and young'men who gathered nightly
at the corner of Orchard and Merwin
street. and Harbor avenue, to the great
annoyance of people living in that
neighborhood. Thinking, that police
surveilence has been raised in that sect-
ion the lads are again congregating and
making night hideous by their shouting
and profane talk. A few arrests might
have a wholesome effect. The nuisance
ought to be abated at once. ‘

The people have long since learned that
the most disagreeable medicines are not nec-
essarily the best. In fact, as a rule, they are
not. What is wanted is something mild and
sure, such as Chamberlain’s Colic, Cholera
and Diarrhoea Remedy. That is really
pleasant to take when reduced with‘water
and sweetened. Then it is acknowledged
everywhere to be the most successful remedy
in the world for bowel complaints. Ask any
number of druggists for the best remedy
they have for diarrhoea and fully nine out
of ten will recommend Chamberlain’s. In,
speaking of this medicine, Mr. B. B. Bufi'um
of Friendsville, Susquehanna Co, Pa., says:
