The declaration was made when a res olution by Mr. Williams holding such a breach to" have been committed was ta iled, 146 to 119. The vote was preceded liy statements by both Mr. Williams and the Speaker. After disclaiming that as a result of the episode there was a breach between him and the Speaker, Mr. Williams maintained that the ac tion was an unprecedented parliamentary act. On the other hand. Speaker Can non called attention to the dilatory tac tics of the minority leader for the past two weeks, and said it was the Speaker's privilege and his duty to sweep aside e dilatory demand and declare the House adjourned.

Ed Wil kinson, alias Watson, a well-dressed young man for whom the Charlotte au thorities have been searching for the f ast week, was arrested early this morn ng by Chief of Police Julian. About four days ago Wilkinson went through the ceremony in which he pre tended to have married a Miss McCall, of Charlotte. He stated afterward that it was a mock ceremony and skipped out of Charlotte. The young lady had a certificate which- purported to be genu ine, and when Wilkinson abandoned her her brother caused a warrant to be is sued for him for making false repre sentations. When the chief located Wilkinson he was in the telephone booth, communi cating with Charlotte. He pretended that he was the wrong man when ar rested, but the officer started with him to the courthouse, Wilkinson begged hard that the officer permit him to walk along without restraint. His request was granted, and when he reached a point a block from the jail he made a dash for liberty. He ran nearly a block before he was overtaken. The Charlotte officers were notified of Wilkinson's arrest. BURNS ON ANNIVERSARY OF A FORMER FIRE Valdosta, Ca., April 20.

"AT THE BIO CLOCK." ; ROBERT A. SILLS. Mr. We do fine Shoe Repairing. Bryan, Getting Rich, Still the Peepul's Friend (Continued From Union here. Later he will attend -the dinner of the Missouri Society of New York. Wednesday evening he will be a guest at the joint banquet of the Asso ciated Press and American Newspaper Publishers' Association. His lecture at Cooper Union will have no bearing on political affairs. Aside from a few lecture engage ments in Nebraska, Mr. Bryan said to night he had nothing scheduled until May 13, when he is to attend the con ference to be held at Washington to fur ther the "Conservation of Our Natural Resources.' - Wouldn't Talk State Politics. With interviewers today vMr. Bryan persistently avoided discussion of the political situation in this state. Mr. Bryan talked freely on other matters, however. One interviewer suggested that the Nebraska)!, having been credited with an earning capacity of from $00,000 to $75,000 a year, might be exposed to the charge by opponents that he was no longer representative of the laboring class, but a full-fledged plutocrat. To this Mr. Bryan replied: "My income is derived from my lec turing with Borne addition from articles written for other publications, and something from my own paper, but the amount has been very much exaggera ted. I make more speeches for. nothing than for pay, and devote more time to publia work than private gain. The in come that I have received has come from the people who attend my lectures and who read what I write and, therefore, my obligation is to the whole people rather than to any special class. The best test of the effect of my income is to be found in the things that I advo cate." "My views have not changed upon public questions. I am contending for the same things now that I did then, and I think no one will deny that I could make more by siding with the corporate interests that I have opposed than I have made out of lecturing.. "My political prominence has been an advantage in that it has given me a larger reading circle and a larger au dience, but I could have used the promi nence in other ways to greater pecuniary advantage. For instance, I was offered $25,000 a year as counsel for a corpora tion, but it would have taken me out of the political field. By lecturing and writing I can make what I need in half the time and have the rest for public work. President Cleveland found his law income larger after he was in the White House than before. So did Pres ident Harrison. This was the experience of Speaker Reed after his service in Congress. Secretary Shaw found his ser vices more valuable after he had been in the cabinet. Prominence an Asset. "Political prominence is an asset in any kind of business. I could not have turned my attention to anything where it would not have been an advantage, and had I used all of my time lecturing and writing I could have made twice as much as I have. The question is not whether I have made more than I did before I was nominated, but whether I have made it in a legitimate way, and I think no one will deny that my in come has been derived from a legitimate source, "The next question is whether the in crease in my earning power has changed my views on public questions. No one, I think, will contend that it has." Among the questions which Mr. Bryan did not answer was the one put by a reporter, as follows: "Do you expect to be nominated for the presidency?" "Well, this is refreshing," said Mr. Bryan, with a smile. "I presume you have read Caesar, young man, and will remember that the books read 'all Gaul is divided into three parts.' If Julius Caesar had known you before he wrote that book he probably would have struck out two of the parts." CRAIG'S MANAGER SEEMS PLEASED WITH OUTLOOK Asheville, N. C, April 20. J. P. Kerr, who is managing Locke Craig's campaign with headquarters at Raleigh, is in the city for a stay of two or three days. Mr. Kerr said today in speaking of the political situation as relates to the con test for the Democratic nomination for governor of North Carolina, that he was greatly pleased with the outlook and that he was certain of Mr. Craig's nom ination. Mr. Kerr believes from a care ful survey of the political field that the Buncombe man will win the nomination on the first ballot. The returns from primaries and conventions held in Swain, McDowell, Burke, Wilkes and Alexander counties shows that Mr. Craig is gaining and that he now has a total of seventy eight votes out of a possible eighty four from counties which have already held primaries or conventions. While Mr. Craig's vote in Wilkes was not so large as that received by Mr. Kitchin it is claimed by Mr. Craig's friends that it was all they hoped for. In Burke coun ty Craig received all but one-half vote. THE LABOR MOVEMENT EXCITES MUCH INTEREST . Raleigh, N. C, April 20.

TO PROBE PAPER TABiFF QUESTION J Cannon's Resolution Calling for Investigation Is Introduced In the House. Washington, D. C, April 20. A definite step was taken today toward a solution of the wood pulp and newspaper cost question in the introduction by Speaker Cannon of a resolution for the selection of six members to investigate, "and ob tain all possible information" as to the reasons for the increased price of white paper, "to the end that needful legisla tion may be. enacted." The resolution was referred to the committee on rules, of which the Speaker is chairman. Following is the resolution in part: "Whereas, it is alleged by the Amer ican Newpupur Publishers' Association that the cost of paper is at least $60, 0l)(!,OQC a year greater than it was two years ago; that the cost of news print paper will, under the price now asked, be $5,000.000 greater for the current year than heretofore; that the price of print paper has increased from 35 to 50 per cent, during the past few months; that the alleged increased price of paper is in part the result of a combination and conspiracy on the part of wood pulp and paper manufacturers and dealers to mo noJxlize and restrain interstate and for eign commerce and trade in the manu facture and sale of paper; that the In ternational Paper Company end other paper manufacturers and dealers have advanced the price of print paper $22 per ton during the last few months; that this great advance is made possible by the duty of six dollars per ton on print paper; and whereas it is claimed, on the contrary, that the price of print paper is in nowise affected by the tar iff; that the increase in pice of recent date has not been excessive and is not the result either of tariff import duty or of any combination or conspiracy in restraint of trade or otherwise; but is the result wholly of the increase in the cost of the raw materials and the in crease in the wages, and the shortening of the hours of labor per day ; that judgment was entered in the Circuit Court for the district of Minnesota, dis solving the General Paper Company as a combination in restraint of trade; that the increase in the price of paper has occurred notwithstanding the disso lution of the said Genernl Paper Com pany, or paper trust; that the depart ment, of justice reports that it has ob tained no evidence sufficient to justify the institution of legal proceedings, either civil or criminal, against the al leged combination, ami that it is de clared that the House of Representatives shall fully be informed as to all of the facts in the case and as to whether there does exist beyond the reach of the existing power of the department of justice and the courts to prevent combination or conspiracy among the manufacturers or dealers or others to so increase the prices to control the char aster of the paper manufactured, or to regulate the output of wood pulp or the paper mills, in restraint of trade among the several states or with any foreign country, to the end that needful legisla tion may be enacted; "Now, therefore, resolved, that the Speaker shall appoint a select com mittee of six members to investigate and inquire into the said alleged facts, and to obtain all possible information in regnrd to the same and to inquire into the elements and conditions involved in the production and supply of wood pulp and print paper, in so far as the same are or may be affected by any combina tion or conspiracy to control or restrain interstate or foreign commerce and trade in wood pulp or paper of any kind, and also to inquire whether the - present prices of print and other paper are con trolled in whole or in part by any com bination of persons or corporations, and methods and practices of such corpora tions or persons. "Said committee, or any subcommit tee thereof, shall be authorized to sit in Washington or elsewhere during the sessions of the House and during the recess of Congress, and shall have power to subpoena and examine witnesses un der oath and to send for records, papers and all other evidence that may be nec essary to make the investigation full and complete."
