J., June 9.—Al- 'iough Charles E. Jackson, the New York neWSpaper reporter, is locked up in the Middlesex County jail here on the charge of having shot and killed his wife, not many of the residents of Newmarket. where the alleged crime was committed, believe him guilty. The members of the coroner’s jury which held Jackson respon- sible for the death of hiswife ware critia cised by many persons for their hasty ac-‘ tion. Public opinion is with Jackson.- He is said to have been kind and affection- ate to his wife. Unless released on a writ of habeas corpus the man will have to re- main in jail here until the grand jury meets in September. Jackson is cheerful. To a reporter he said he would have no difficulty in 'prov- ing his innocence. The management of the paper which employed Jackson have retained Lawyers Allan L. MoDermott of Jersey City and EdWard Ransom of the same place to look out for his interests. The body of Mrs. Jackson was taken from Newmarket .yesterday and removed to Blchland, N. Y., where her family lives. The two Jackson children—Charles, 4 years old, and Donald, 3 years old—are in Philadelphia in the care of J. P. Moser, Mrs. Jackson’s uncle. The letter written by Mrs. Jackson and handed to the au- thorities byJackson is looked upon by his friends as very strong evidence that Mrs. Jackson committed suicide, but the au- thorities refuse to make it public.

If Sharkey puts .up a better fight during the four rounds than Corbett, he will be entitled to the decision, but Sharkey will not be entitled to a draw if Corbett fails to knock him out. Corbett says the real reason for his accepting the Sharkey proposition is his desire to prove to his friends that the stories of his degeneration are out of joint. He will begin active training at once at the Olympic. Sharkey will train at Oak- land. Sharkey is confident. He says he will put up all he has on his ability to stay out the four rounds.

THII DEFICIENCY BILL. The Vetoed Measure Altered and Again Passed by Congress. SHERMAN STATUE SQUABBLE It Comes Up In the Senate at the In- stance of Senator ‘Volcott, but No Action Is Taken—The Clos- ing Business. 7 WASHINGTON, J rule 9. —When the house reconvened at 10 o’clock in continuation of the legislative day of Saturday there were about 70 members on the floor. Mr. Sherman (Rep, N. Y.), chairman of the committee on Indian affairs, presented a resolution calling on the secretary of the treasury for information as to what steps, had been taken-to procure a settlement of the principal and interest of certain bonds of the state of Virginia, the ownership of which was assumed by the United States. A part of the Indian fund—$540,000—was invested in these bonds, and a question has arisen as to whether the liability for them belonged to Virginia or West Vir- ginia. This resolution gave Mr. Kem (Pop., Nob.) his opportunity to raise the point of no quorum, whereupon a call of thehouse was ordered. Fight to Get a Quorum. The call developed the pretence ’of 168 members, 11 less than a quorum. There- upon the doors were closed, and Mr. Ding- ley (Rep, Me.), the floor leader of the ma- jority, offered a resolution, which was. adopted, revoking all leaves of absence ex- cept on account of sickness and directing the sergeant-at-arms to telegraph absen- tees to return forthwith. Mr. Dingley stated that the difficulty in maintaining a ~ guorum during the last few days. and the act that members were hourly leaving compelled this action. At 10:50 a. m. a quorum appeared. The Sherman resolu- tion relative to Virginia bonds was' adopted. - Special Deficiency Bill Passed. A special deficiency bill providing for the pay of the salaries of members seated by the house and for several other minor matters was passed under suspension of the rules. The bill was then sent to the senate, and when the announcement of the passage of the bill by the senate was made to the house at 1:40 p. m. the members cheered. The house leaders believe this re- moves the last difficulty in the way of early adjournment. Mr. Dingley said the action of the senate assured an adjourn- ment next Tuesday. The senate joint resolution authorizing a scientific investi- gation of the fur seal fisheries was adopt- ed. The senate bill amending the act for the protection of the salmon fisheries of Alaska was passed. The senate bill appropriating $1 5, 000 for the payment of the awards of the coin- mission appointed to report on the dam- age resulting from and the injuries infilct— ed by the explosion of a caisson belonging to the Second United States artillery dur- ing the Chicago riots occasioned some dee hate. The bill was defeated—86 to 106. In the Senate. WAF'iINGTQN, J une 8.—The new de- ficiency bill, framed to meet the objections of the president’s veto, was taken up as soon as the senate met. Before proceeding with it further conferences were ordered on the Indian and District of Columbia appropriations. Mr. Wolcott (Rep, Colo.) asked imme- diate consideration for a resolution direct~ ing the committee on library to investi- gate the circumstances of the award of the statue of General William Tecumseh Sherman (Mr. Rohl-Smith’s design having been selected) and requesting the secre- tary of war to suspend the execution of the contract for the statue until a report had been made at the next session. Mr Allison wanted the resolution to go over under the rules. Mr. Wolcott suggested there might not be another session. Mr. Hawley (Rep, Conn.) wanted the resolution to go over, suggesting there were two sides to this status question. The resolution finally went over. When the deficiency bill had been read, Mr. Harris (Dem., Tenn.) ofl‘ered an amendment covering claims under the Bowman act which had been omitted in the house hill, although there was no spe- cific objection to them in the veto mes- sage. After debate the vice president sub- mitted to the senate a point of order against the amendment, and it was voted to be out of order. The deficiency bill was then passed as it came from the house. A bill was passed appropriating $69,500 , to the Richmond Locomotive and Machine works for losses incurred in the construc- tion of the battleship Texas. A letter from the president was read consenting to the withdrawal by the Chickasaw Indians of $100,000 qt their trust funds now in the treasury, and a resolution was passed as- seating to the withdrawal. The senate bill was passed appropriating $350, 000 for a public building at Oakland, Cal. An American Asks For Justice.
