Mr. Gary surprised the committee
with the statement that the Tennes-1

nominally Independent of all 'other!

TVA8HVILLE, Tenn., June 1. J. M.
Dickinson, ex-secretary of war, in an
address at a reception tendered him
and Mrs. Dlckinsojt" this afternoon by
the board of trade, said that perfect
harmony existed between the presi
dent, member, of the cabinet and
himself despite rumors to the con
trary, and that his reasons for his
resignation were those iven to the
president and the press In a formal
letter. He spoke most commendatory
regarding President Taft, saying that
his patriotism extended throughout
the South; that he had appointed a
Southern man and a democrat in his
cabinet despite the fact that the
Southern states had voted against him
to a unit. He also cited as the pres
ident's attitude toward the Southern
states the appointment of Justice Lur
ton, a democrat and a confederate
seldler, to the Suoreme bench, and la
appointing a chief justice the presi
dent had elevated a Loulaiajilan and
ex-Confederate soldier. Mr. Dickin
son also said that the president in ap
pointing federal judges had in nu
merous instances appointed democrats
ss they had appeared the best men for
the position, and had never appoint
ed a .negro to any position in the
South which offended Southern in
stincts. Mr. Dickinsonadded that it
was not true that he had resigned be
cause he expected greater political
preference.

SECOND DRUBBING
By Vote of 48 to 20 it is Decided to
Again Investigate Lorimers Elec
tionNew Plan Adopted in Ap
pointing Committee
WASHINGTON. June 1. Senator
Lorlmer, of Illinois- face another In
vestigation at the handi of his col
leagues. The Inquiry conducted by
the sub-committee of the committee
on privileges and election, composed
of four republicans and four demo
crats, four of whom voted for the
conviction and four for the acquittal
of the senator last session. The
method selected U regarded as the
latest thing in Jury trials. It took
seven hours debate to agree upon the
system and it was finally adopted this
evening iby a vote of 48 to 20. being
substituted for the plan urged by Sen
ator LaFollette of turning the eaae
over to five senators who were not
members when the case was voted
upon before and therefore suppoaed
unbiased.
Before the vote was taken, Senator
Bristow who favored the LaFollette
plan, accussed Senator Dillingham
chairman of the elections committee,
of having a democratic scheme of
turning the investigation over to a
sub-committee. This . charge was
baaed upon the fact that the author
of the resolution adopted was Senator
Martin, the democratic leader. Mr.
Bristow also claimed that the old
guard republicans had formed an al
liance with the democrats and that
thVy had placed the "mantle of Al
drlch" upon the shoulders of Martin.
That the committee on privileges
and elections had shirked its duty In
the former investigation was charged
unreservedly by the supporters of the
LaFollette resolution. Senator Lea, of
Tennessee, said he would no more
turn the case over to the elections
cummlttee for another trial than he
would submit to a second operation
for appendicitis by a surgeon who
had failed on the first operation to lo
cate the appendix. 8enator Kenyon,
of Iowa, recently assistant to the at
torney general,. Intimated that the
great trusts bad busied themselves
with the election of senators so as
to Influence the selection of United
State district attorneys whose friend
ship might be- use in the oa -of
prosecutions.
The defense of the Martin resolu
tion wag conducted by Senators Dil
lingham. Martin, Bacon. Stone and
other senators from both the re
publican senators Voted against sub
stituting the Martin resolution. The
resolution? adopted merely provides
that the Investigation shall be con
ducted by the-electlons committee and
j makes no mention of a sub-commlt-1
toe. It was In connection with the
understanding on the. part of many
I senators that a1 bi-partisan and bl
j Lorlmer committee was to be named
that brought out most of the critl-
ciam.

RESEIITS NEGRO'S ACT
"US AFTER
Negro Had Chugged Him in
Ribs and He Wouldn't
Stand for It
NO ARRESTS MADE
WASHINGTON, June 1 Repre
sentative 8. A. Koddenberry. of Geor
gia, came to blows with a negro in a
street car tonight. No great damage
was done by the combatants so
quickly were they separated. The In
cldnl. however, caused no little ex
citement on the car aod was a fairly
fit close to u day that had not been
devoid of excitement at the capltol,
Mr. Koddenberry, Speaker Champ
flark. Hepresentatlve (illie M. James
and Hepresentatlve Ben Johnson, of
Kentucky, were among a number of
democratic members who had board
ed the cars for their homes upon the
conclusion of the caucus shortly be
fore midnight. A negro man and
woman got on and the woman sat In
a narrow space beside Mr. Rodden
berry. There remained but a few
Inches of the longitudal seat that was
not occupied. This was between Mr.
Koddenberry and the woman. Her
escort sought to All the space with
a bulk twice Mr. Roddenberry's.
As the negro seated hlmelf and
shoved back Mr. Roddenberry re
monstrated. The negro made some
reply and shoved an elbow Into the
representative's ribs. In an instant
the Georgian was on his feet and
landed three or four stiff blows upon
the negro's face. The negro promptly
made for Mr. Roddenberry and aimed
two or three blows st him. The Geor
gian was quick ss lightning and
ducked or sidestepped them all.
Speaker Clark. Mr. James and Mr.
Johnson, then rushed In between the
combatants. The conductor and mo
torman also appeared and offered to
put th negro off the car. The repre
sentatives, however, decided that Mr.
Roddenberry had .- asserted himself
rigorously enough to' teach a lesson
and Intervened in the negro' .behalf
Mr. Bristow. He said he had been
advised that the. Investigation, was not
to be made by the committee as a
whole, but by a sub-committee and
that the leaders of the republican
and democratic parties had reached
an understanding concerning the
committee' personnel. In discussing
what he termed the "capitulation" of
Senator Dillingham, he said he ac
cepted' this act as a temporary trans
ference of leadership to the democra
tic side. It was with a feeling of
regret, he said, that he saw the man
tle of Aldrich fall upon the shoulders
of a democrat, but he added that he
found consolation In the fact that a
transfer had become necessary.
"Mr. Oallinger had not been ale
to don the mantle," said Mr. Bristow,
"and It had not been found to fit
Mr. Penrose, for ome strange rea
on It had not been tendered to Mr.
Lodge and not until the wolves had
scattered the sheep had there been
any success In finding a leader. But
now that a coalition has been formed
the man has been found and the sen
ate knows whence It signals are to
come."
The real question at issue, accord
ing to Mr. LaFollette. was whether
the lumber and fceef trusts could buy
a seat in the senate, "If the senate
does Its duty," he said, "It would es
tablish these facts for the proof exist
and the truth should be known. Sen
atorial seats should not be on the
bargain counter for the great Inter
ests to buy."
Mr. LaFollette also criticised the
alleged agreement between conser
vative republicans and democrats for
the seletclon of a sub-committee. The
accuracy of the statement that such
an agreement had been made was
questioned by Mr. Bacon and finally
Mr. Davis said that had been the un
derstanding in the democratic caucus,
but that It had been reached In the
absence of Mr Bacon. Denial that
the'- was a formal agreement -tween
democrats and republicans was
made by . Mr. DliiitgnmK bui;;Mr.
Martin -said that titer fcd been an
understanding that the full commit
tee would be too cumbersome and that
the plan for the committee of eight
had been approved In the caucu. He
said that it would be necessary for
the senate to confirm the nominations
of the members of tht sub-committee.
"Then why not elect members at
one. by adopting the LaFollette re
solution." asked Mr. Cummins.
Mr Martin replied (hat he thought
desirable to place the responsibility
upon the standing committee on elec
tions. The strictures which senators
had directed at the standing commit
tee were declared by Mr. Stone to be
undeserved reproach. After the adop
tion of the resolution the senate ad
journed until 2 p. m. Monday.

WASHINGTON, June l.e-The crlsl
in the senate fight on Canadian reci
procity Is expected to be: reached
when the democratic' farmers' free
list bill is offered an amendment to
the bill carrying the agreement into
effect. That such amendment will
be offered for the purpose of embar
rassing the democratic supporter of

avoid this critical' contingency that
President Taft jut . now Is devoting
his attention. He Is holding dally
conferences at the white house In
an effort to keep republican nd dem
ocratic senator allkeVla.Tln for the
part. '
'President Taft la certain that the
reciprocity will, pass the senate by a
comfortable majority if It can be
brought out to a final vote without
amendment. He feels that the test
of the true friends of reciprocity will
come in dealing with the proposed
amendments to be offered from the
floor. Mr. Taft recently has had as
surance that the bill will be out of
the finance committee without
amendment and without recommen

have proposed amendments. The
proposed Root, Lodge and Nelson

he thinks he has found a solution of
the problem. He has suggested that
a motion by the democrat to dis
charge the finance committee from
consideration of the free list bill and
to put It through upon Its passage
would serve the purpose of the demo
crat In making their attitude a per
fectly cloar one, and he has further
expressed confidence In the fairness
of the American people to recognise
the purpose of those who would at
tempt the free list method of defeat

The plan, a outlined, has been
brosdly discussed among democratic
senators and It Is expected that they
believe with other friends of reci
procity that It I a solution of the
difficulty. In all of his talk with
senstors during the past few days.
President Taft has endeavored to im
press the fact thst In negotiating the
pact with Canada, the United States
offered to put meats, flour, agricul
