DELAY IN THE SENATE Many Members Object to Way Leather Schedule Was Made Up. Washington. Aug. 3. Beginning B consideration of the conference report on the tariff bill by a tedious reading of that document, which was Insisted upon by senators who proposed to see that undue haste Is not exercised in the final passage of the measure, the senate dragged along during nearly seven hours without accomplishing any Important result. Numerous conferences were held among senators on both sides ot the chamber for the purpose of advancing or hindering the final passage of the bill. The developments which have occurred In respect to the framing of the leather schedule In conference culled forth much Interest. Senators spent much time in discussing the Ian gunge and effect of that schedule. The debate on the conference report Lasts But Ten Days, So "Be Wise, Buy Now" was opened by Senator Daniel, who claimed that the Democratic senators on the finance committee had been dealt with unfairly In not being per mitted to vote In committee on the adoption of the report. lie claimed that an agreement for that purpose entered Into by the chairman, Mr. Ald rich, had been vlolnted. Any intentional violation was disavowed by Mr. Ald rlch, who said he could not agree with Mr. Daniel as to what had occurred between them. Senator Brlstow denounced the tar iff bill aa a violation of Republican principles and announced that he would not vote for It. In order to clearly fix the responsi bility to parties In the passage of the Mil and the framing of its several schedules Senntor Bacon presented an analysis of the 137 yea and nay votes that had been taken In its considera tion. The list of votes the senate agreed to print in the Record. JOHNSON'S $1,C00 BILL Could Not Be Changed at Police Sta tion When He Had to Put Up $25.

Situation In Spain. Although the situation is less threat ening In Spain, the next few days should bring news of significant politi cal developments. As was antlclpat ed, the biggest news of the Spanish Moroccan war developed within Spain proper, where under cover of a pro test against the war malcontenis seized the opportunity to kill and pillage. With the enforced submis sion of the revolutionists, American li.terest now will be chiefly concerned with the determination of whether the Republicans, Socialists, Carllsts, Ant! Clericals or Anarchists organized the recent disorders. Does Not Intend to Leave Nebraska. William J.

Acts as Silly and Pompous. Dr. Baker's Testimony Was Reat From His Case Book and Deacrobec Thaw's Conduct, Both Normal ant Queer, on Many Occcasions Frorr Feb. 1, 1908, the Date of His Com mltment. Until June 25 of the Pres ent Year. White Plains, Aug. 3. How Harrj K. Thaw conducted himself at the Mat teawan asylum for the criminal In sane, a phase of his life not gone lntc before, was described by Dr. Amos B Baker, first assistant physician of the Institution, the only witness called In District Attorney Jerome at the contln aatinn of the hearing by which Thaw hopes to obtnln his release. Asld from his testimony, a two-foot stack of canvas-bound books, labelled "Thi People vs. Harry K. Thaw" records of the murder trials furnished all the evidence Introduced by Mr. Jerome. Mother's Testimony Used Against Him Mrs. Mary Copley Thaw, as she sat In court, paw Mr. Jerome Introduce against her son testimony she had willingly g'ven heretofore to save hi' life. It wrs seized upon by the state to prove him Insane. It Included hei accounts of his nervous temperament as ft (child, materially valuable to Thaw when he was In danger of the electric chair but now menacing to his hope of proving himself a sane man. One thing nuoted by the district attorney was her statement concern ing Harry Thaw, "that his body wa. too puny for his head, and before and after the measles he had St. Vitus' dance." Dr. Baker's testimony was read by himself from his "case book" and de scilbed Thaw's conduct, both normal and queer, on many occasions from Feb. 1, 190S, the date of his commit ment, until June 25 of the present year. While some of these notes describe the patient's acts as "silly" and while the witness said that In his belief Thnw was Irrational now, Thaw's at torney made him admit that during the first three monthB of the patient's stay at Muttenwan ho observed no signs ol paranoia. After that Thaw, by his counsel's advice, refused to let him self be examined or to answer ques tions asked by the hospital physicians. When Thaw reached Matteawan on the day the jury acquitted him of the murder of Stanford White on the ground of insanity, almost his first $2.00 $10.00 Half Price Half Price Half Price 35c Suits $4.00 One-Half Price Half Price Half Price Half Price 19c 19c one-fourth off $1.00 69c three pair for 25c COMPANY statements, according to Dr. Baker, were "expressions of amusement over the clever work of his lawyers and alienists." He said frankly that his acquittal was obtained by exaggerat ing certain Incidents, and putting in testimony Jerome was unable to re fute because he had not the facts. "Silly and Pompous." The witness described Thaw's man ner at most tlme3 as "silly" and "pompous." He said he quarrelled with the other patients who played cards with him, calling them "stupid donkeys." From his notebook he read of various Incidents, including Thaw's refusal to accept mall addressed to him; his refusal to see his wife until told that Mr. Morschauser had seat her and his "Insolent and domineer ing actions to the physicians and at tendants." Last fall the prison authorities searched Thaw's pockets when he was asleep and the next day he offered $500 reward for the detection of any one tampering with his clothes. The fruits of this search appeared In court when Dr. Baker handed In as evidence about thirty newspaper clippings. They were not read, but .Mr. Jeronit explained that nil were on sexual topics. Mr. Morschauser weakened the force of this exhibit by making the witness testify that In all he had found nearly 200 clippings In Thaw's pockets and that they were on various subjects' He said he had brought the thirty to court because he thought they nil had bearing on the case. Justice Mills told him to fetch the others. When court adjourned for the dny, Mr. Morschauser was trying to make Dr. Baker admit that a musical at the hospital not long ago was arranged for the purpose of letting Thaw make a fool of himself. Thaw refused to attend thj affair. Suicide by Drowning. Rochester. Aug. 3.

I.Ike a giant bird the machine swept unswervingly straight to the south, passing over the diverse and heavily wooded country in the distance until It became n mere speck above the hor izon. Those who had glasses saw the aero plane turn, first to the left, then to the right, above Shuter hill. Suddenly the speck was lost to view, and as the seconds passed, n silence grew upon the crowd, a silence that spoke of-deep concern. Wilbur Wright, standing with levelled glasses beside his sister, strained his ga.e In effort to catch sight of the aeroplane when It should rise again above the sky line. Seconds seemed minutes, and as the Interval became seemingly alarm ing, his agitation was evident. Suddenly the speck came In sight again, over (lie distant hill. A rry swept over the watching crowd. "There It Is," everybody said nnrt the sigh of relief was plainly nudlbl". Onward the machine came, beam ingly swerved from Its course by u westerly breeze. Soon the aerl tl irri gators were home again over the d'ill ground, living very low. Orvillu steer ed straight across the Held, and at a height of about twenty feet, awung round again to the southward, and landed easily far down the Held. The task was done, and In triumph. Cheer upon cheer welcomed the return. WOMAN SUPERINTENDENT Mrs. Ella Flayg Young Appointed Head of Chicago's School System.
