WASHINGTON, Feb. to-Representa-ttve,

wrangle In the Hduio today by charging
Irli President Wilson influenced the In-

The Incident occurred during tho de
bate on a motion by Qlllett, ot Massa
chusetts, to strike out of tho civil mtmlry
bill a '3.0C0,600 appropriation to continue
the physical Vatuatlon of the country's
railroads.
First to answer Good's charge was
Gordon, Of Ohtd, who declared It was tho
first tlma any tone had dared say openly
what Republican members had been whis
pering among themselves. Ho had heard
the charge, ho said, and had gone, to
tho President about it Tho President had
told him, lie stated, that It was untrue,
and that1 he "wuld as soon think of trying

est dictator -vie have had In 60 years,"
"Certainly." said Mills.
Quietly, with grim faces, tho two men
got Into an automobile and were whirled
to 1020 North Broad Btroet. A sound of
near rioting came from tho second floor.
Superintendent itoblnson Rhlvcred and
held back at tho door. Gritting his teeth,
Captain Mills thrust htm aside.
"Come on," ho shouted, whipping out
his revolver.
With the Superintendent bohlnd htm
Mills bounded up tho stains threa at a
tlmo. Ho was half way up when tho
lights went out on tho second floor and
the nolso stopped.
"Look out," yolled Itoblnson.
"At 'cm," retorted Mills.
Ho flung his tall, athletic form at the
doublo doors. Unlocked, they gave way
boforo him and with one bound he was
In tho middle of the floor.
Somo one turned on the HghtB.
Mills was crouched down with his re
volver at his hip, the cold glare of battle
In his oyes.
Superintendent Itoblnson was leaning
nonchalantly against tho door, smiling.
Director Porter was doublod up over
a tabic with laughter, along with 250
members of tho traffic force, all In uni
form. When It had been explained to Captain
Mills that It was a surprlso party every
body ate, and a Masonic charm worth
$500 was presented to tho captain by
Director Porter in behalf of tho men.

the newly mads captain, bomo time ago

LONDON, Feb. 10 Tho German cruiser
Karlsruhe Is now operating from a bnso
on tho northwest coast of Haiti, near
Mole St. Nicholas, nnd Is receiving sup
plies from American sources, nccordlng
to Information received by tho British
Admiralty today, Representations on this
matter niay soon bo mado to tho United
States, which Is said to havo been In
formally advised of tho situation.
Steamships from Now York and New
Orleans are reported to havo been taking
coal and provisions to Molo St. Nicholas
for tho Karlsruhe for several weeks.
Inquiries mado of the Hatlan Govern
ment by tho British Minister resulted
only In gaining nn admission that tho
Karlsruhe might bo near Mole St. Nlcho
lai, but that nothing definite was known
because of tho disturbed conditions In
Haiti.
Whllo tho Germans Bay that the Karls
ruhe has sunk only 11 British vessels. It
Is believed here that the number of her
victims Is much larger. Tho French cablo
lies between Port-au-Prlnco and Capo
Haitian, ana Detween Molo St. Nicholas
and Capo Haytlen cables havo been cut,
according to advices rccoived by tho Ad
miralty, and this Is believed to havo been
dono by tho Karlsruhe.
It Is known that n year ago tho Ger
man Government, seeking a naval station
In tho Caribbean, oponed negotiations
with Haytl for a base at Molo St. Nicho
las, -which has ono of tho finest harbors
In tho world. It Is H00 miles from New
York and 1000 miles from New Orleans.
Intimation that the Karlsruhe was re
ceiving Its supplies from a port In Haytl
wns contained in a report printed a
month ago oxclu-'vcly In this city In tho
EVENIMO LCDOER.
NEW YOnK, Feb. 10. The French
Cablo Company admitted today that Its
lines octween i'ort Au Prince and Capo
Haytlon and hetweon Capo Haytlen and
Mole St, Nicholas were not operating, but
it donlcd having any Information that
they had been cut by tho cruiser Karls
ruhe. The company expects to have the cables
working again In a short time.
WASHINGTON, Feb, 10,-Tho United
States Senate today established a record
for long-distance sessions, nnd tho talking
marathon on tho ship purchase bill still
went on. At 3 p. rm tho upper House had
been In session without a break for ti
hours, with opponents of the measure un
yielding. The longest previous session,
according to the oldest members of the
Senate, was 33 hours, achieved In 1883,
during the filibuster against tho repeal ot
tho purchasing clause of tho Sherman
sliver act.
Indications late this afternoon wero that
the session would continue throughout
another night. Tomorrow, It was said,
the Republicans nnd bolting Democrats
will make a desperate effort to tircak
tho Administration's strength, Senator
Bankhead planning to move that tho
postal appropriation bill, which has been
roportcd to tho Senate, bo taken up.
Should this motion prevail, tho ship pur
chase bill will ho dislodged, which would
virtually mean Its death ns far as this
session is concerned.
When the sun sent Its raja through tho
Senate skMlghts today, Senator Sherman,
of Illinois, held tho floor. Ho started lo
speak at 1.25 a. m., and resorted to ovory
device to pass the time. Tho Senator had
o.ily a small audience, tho excitement ot
ono attempt nt rollcall during tho night
having exhausted the Interest of Repub
licans and Democrats alike. From tho
beginning Of bUSlnrfl.q tlm mnmhora ivlm
had gathered first to vote on adjourn
ment to meet a threatened Democratic
attempt to rush through a voto on tho
first of the Instructions to send the bill
DacK to committee, dwindled steadily.
Senator Sherman surrendered tho floor
nt 0:10 o'clock, after speaking 7 hours and
to minutes.
Senator Townsond, ot Michigan, ar-
rived Just a few minutes beforo Sherman
stopped. Ho appeared fresh and vigorous
nnd began In an even olco to explain tho
reasons for tho Republican filibuster. Ho
charged that Red Cross funds, under Sec
retary of tho Treasury McAdoo'a direc
tion, havo been transferred to Kuhn, Loob
& Co. slnco Paul M. Warburg's appoint
ment to tho Federal Reserve Board.
"Doesn't tho Senator know that War
burg resigned from Kuhn. Lonh r-n
when ho wont on tho roscrvo board?" de
manded Senator Martlne.
"But he transferred his interest In
Kuhn, Locb & Co. to another member of
ins ramiiy," interrupted Senator Brlstow.
Townsend asserted also that Treasury
umtiuiB nuu interested mcmsclves unduly
to get Government deposits for n new
trust company, recently started in Wash
ington by relatives of tho Secrctarj.
Senator Townsend concluded his speech
at noon. After a quorum call, which
showed SS Senators prosent, Senator
Myers, of Montana, rnado a plea to tho
filibusters to let tho bill come to a vote.
Ho urged the necessity of passing other
measures, including tho waterpowcr leas
ing bill, of which ho Is In charge.

Tha police regarded this as rather an
odd coincidence and arrested tha trio.
They are H. Selby, of Sd and Cantrell
