In Columbia and Venezuela.
The Colombian Congress to which the
Panama Canal treaty, which onr own
Senate is wrestling with,will be submit
ted, was elected during the week. It is
not positively known, or it has not at
least been positively stated, whether a
majority of the members are or are not
in favor of approving the contract into
which the government had previously
entered, but the supporters of the trea
ty profess to have no fears upon the sub
ject. They say that the opposition is
dying out, and that at Bogota, where
public opinion is most influential, the
feeling is gaining ground that the trea
ty represents the very best bargain that
Columbia cam hope to make and that to
reject it would be an extremely foolish
piece of business.
In this connection it appears that the
course pursued by Mr. Morgan has not
been without some good result. It has
convinced many Colombians who had
their doubts upon the point that there
is a conflict of judgment in the United
States as to the value to this country of
the proposed arrangement. Had the
treaty been ratified at once without op
position the cry would have been that
the American Government was eager to
consummate what it recognized as an
uncommonly good bargain. In the
meanwhile Colombia is so badly in need
of money that it is making an enormous
increase in her customs duties. For ex
ample, the duty on cotton goods has
been advanced from CO to 100 per cent,
ad valorem; on hardware from 50 to 100
per cent, and on wines and spirits from
100 to 250 per cent. A country which
is in the straits indicated by these
figures is not likely to balk at a bargain
which will place ten million dollars in
its treasury.
There has been scarcely any news
from Venezuela, but that little has not
been encouraging. The insurrection
against the Castro regime is still going
on, and while the insurgents are ap
parently unable to make any substan
tial progress, the government is equally
unable to reduce them to submission.
The situation looks like a case of stale
mate, the more so as it is reported tha'
Congress cannot be called together for
the lack of a quorum. In Venezuela, as
in Colombia, the financial crisis is
acute. Not only have the duties on im
ports been materially advanced, but
such heavy export duties have been im
posed that merchants are finding it im
practicable to do business.
At Maraeaibo the exportation of cof
fee baa ceased, and the business men de
clare that they are worse off now than
they were during the blockade. So
much for the rasnlt of throoio nongov
ernment. —lnquirer.
AT Washington, last Friday, the
Democratic members of Congress select
ed Senator A. P. Gorman of Maryland,
as their political leader.

UAUBISBUBU.
Last week the Senate appointed a
committee of seven and the House a
committee of seven to confer and report
in regard to road legislation. A. M.
Douthett, one of our members, had the
honor of being one of the seven compos
ing the committee from the House. This
is nn honor not usually compared on a
new member.
Without a single negative vote the
Goehring Greater Pittsbnrg bill passed
finally in the Senate Monday night.
Thirty-six Senators, all of thote present,
voted aye. There was no debate. The
bill was first on the third reading calen
dar, and, after the title had been read
the roll was called.
On Tuesday serions opposition to the
Greater Pittsbnrg bill developed in the
Honse. The fight against it will be
made by members of the Allegheny
county delegation.
In its present shape the measure is
unsatisfactory to the country members,
and some of the city members will op
pose it. None of these claim to be
agaist the general proposition, but say
that it is defective in its present form
and, while possibly satisfactory to the
cities of Pittsburg and Allegheny, such
is not the case in regard to the lwroughs
'and townships.
Ex-Judge John J. Henderson of Mead
ville takes the place on the superior
court bench vacated by Judge William
W. Porter of Philadelphia. Henderson's
appointment was sent to the senate
Monday night along with that of
Mictiael W. Jacobs ot Harrisburg, to be
additional law judge of Dauphin county
vice John W. Simonton, deceased, and
Martin (i. Brumbaugh of Philadelphia
to l<e a member of the Valley Forge
park commission. The nominations
were continued.
•
The Blumle bill, providing that the
state shall give gold medals to the
mothers of large families, was favor
ably reported Tuesday afternoon by the
house committee on health and san'ta
tion. The committe also passed favor
ably on the Kepler bill prohibiting mis
cegenation.
Mr. Blumle has received many com
plimentary letters, but there are ex
ceptions. He received a letter from a
Philadelphia man, which reads:
Sir— If you are earnest about the pro-
Swsed bill to reward mothers of 12 clill
Iren and over, then you must, be a very
foolixh person and it is beyond my com
prehension that any constituency should
nave elected you. Perhaps you are
simply advertising yourself. I would
—had I the jiower—draft a bill that
would have for its object the imprison
ment for one year for each child over
six children that any father of a family
Erodaced, so that you would, under my
ill, have six years in jail due you.
Tlie l»r. Stepp Case.
Dr. Lawrence H. Stepp of Glade Mills
was pat on trial Tuesday morning on a
charge of rape entered against him by
'Squire Thomas McMillin of the same
place. The crime was alleged to have
been committed in the Doctor s office in
January. 1901. on the prosecutors
daughter Helen, who was then under 16
years of age. The information was
made in July, 1902, and trial had twice
been postponed on account of illness of
Dr. Stepp. Abont half the population
of old Middlesex was in the Court Room
when the case was called. Attorneys
Clarence Walker and McQuistion tV:
Yanderlin were associated with the Dis
trict Attorney on the prosecution. Dr.
Stepp was defended by Thomas M
Marshall. Jr., of Pittsburg. S. F. and
A. L. Bowser and Painter & Mnrrin.
After two hours of challenging the
venire was exhausted and but ten jurors
had been secured. They were S. J.
Dambach, Forward twp; W. B. Stalker.
Venango; John Midberrv. Marion: John
S. Byers, Petrolia: M G. Fullerton.
Clearfield: E. H. Bailey, Jr., Petersville;
J. Dal Smith, Centre: McClelland
Coopei, Worth: E. F. Snyder, Brady;
and Squire Jos. Cochran of Harrisville.
Milton Miller and Frank Frantz were
then called from the audience by Sheriff
Gibson on direction of Judge Galbreath.
Clarence Walker opened for the Com
monwealth, over forty witnesses were
sworn by the Commonwealth. The first
called waa Mrs. Mary Ogden McMillin.
mother of Helen, she stated that Helen
was born March 27, 1883. That in Dec.,
1900, Helen complained of being ill with
a female trouble and she sent her to Dr.
Stepp, who was their family physician
and friend, for treatment. That after
a few visits to the Doctor's office, Helen
refused to go back, saying he had not
treated her right, but not stating how.
The mother s suspicions were not arous
ed and not till she had heard of reports
in circulation about her daughter last
Jul}* did she closely question Helen, who
then told what had happened.
Thomas McMillin, the father, was
then called, and was only questioned as
to Helen's age. On cross-examination
he denied that he had never offered in
Dr. Stepp's office to settle for SSOO or
had offered Mrs. Finefrock. and Edward
Alexander, neighbors, |SO if they would
enter similar charges against Stepp.
He faid Rev. Smith was the first to tell
him of bad reports about Helen. That
after the grand jury had found a true
bill against Stepp," the latter stopped
when passing his livery barn one night,
and asked how a settlement could l>e
made. "I said if I had a shot gnn I d
settle it right now. Dr. Stepp said if
you don't settle I'll ruin yonr daughter's
character forever. 1 replied that a man
who only got six and a fourth cents for
his own character couldn't ruin other
people's."
Helen McMillin, a small modest-look
ing girl of seventeen, was called and
stated that in January, 1901, Dr. Stepp
bad twice taken advantage of her in his
operating office when he was treating
her for ovarian trouble, and that she
had never behaved improperly with
other men. Herevidence was well given
and no amount of cross-questioning
could confuse her.
The prosecution then offered wit
nesses against Dt. Stepp's good reputa
tion but these were set aside for the
time and the Commonwealth rested.
S. F. Bowser opened for the defence.
Dr. Stepp took the stand and stated
that Helen had consulted him privately
in Sept., 1900, and that at the time of
the alleged crime he was treating her
for another cause tbnn that previously
stated and was also treating a young
man named James Heelep for the same.
That there was no truth in the shotgun
story. That on the night of Feb 7, Mc-
Millin came to his office when Elmer J.
Thompson, h medical student and
neighbor, and W. B. Kelly, the Doctor's
brother-in-law, were there, and offered
to settle the case for SSOO. Thompson
and Kelly testified the same and said
the Doctor replied he wouldn't give
500 cents, and the only place the case
could be settled was in court. Thomp
son also told of an occurence when ho
was teacher of the Cooperstown schoqj
in 1899-1900, which was very damaging
to the prosecution.
Mrs. Finefrock testified lhat McMil
lin had offered her SSO if she would
deny that Helen had said to her that Dr.
Stepp had never acted improperly to
ward her and would enter a similar
charge.
The trial was continued Wednesday
morning John M. Hilliard denied the
story told by Mrs. Finefrock that he
had asked her to tell Doctor Stepp that
Helen McMillin was in trouble, that he
(Dr. Stepp) was blamed for it, and that
for a sum of money Hilliard would take
her away and get her married to some
man.
The rest of the day was occupied with
bearing witnesses called to uphold and
break down reputations.
At 2:80 P. M. the evidence was all in
and Marshall addressed the jury for the
deft, and McQuistion for the Common
wealth.
The evidence taken, all in all. was
most contradictory.
It developed during the day that
stories were circulated concerning Helen
McMillin and Hilliard last Summer.
For the defence Mrs. Weigel and
Clara Logan stated that they were in
Dr. Stepp's office twice in January, 1901,
when Helen was there. Both times
Miss McMillin was treated first and
was not in the operating room more
than five or ten minutes.
At five o'clock Judge Galbreath had
finished his charge and the jury retired.
This morning the jury was still dis
agreed and asked the Court whether
there were two counts, rape and adnl •
terv. and whether they could acquit on
the first and convict on the second.
WASH INGTON NOTES.
With a lavish display of floral and
feminine beauty, the extraordinary ses
sions of the United States senate opened
at noon last Thursday. The new mem
bers were sworn in, the message from
the president was read and the prelimi
naries were attended to, after which the
senate adjourned until Monday.
During the short session, Mr. Can
non's speech iu the House, in presenting
the conference report on the general de
ficiency bill, in which he charged that
the senate conferees had resorted to leg
islative blackmail, and attacked the
rules of the senate, formed the subject
of some fervid remarks by Mr. Tillman
and by the senate conferees, Messrs
Hale, Allison and Teller. '
Senator Quay and party left for
Florida in a private car, Thursday
morning.
When Reed Smoot, the new Senator
from Utah, went forward, escorted by
lys colleague, Senator Kearns, he was
applauded. Two-thirds of those in the
galleries were women, and yet the
apostle who believes in polygamy, but
says he does not practice it, was given a
most royal greeting. Whether this was
because he really has half a dozen wives
or might have had them if he would and
yet only has one, is a matter for con
jecture. Nevertheless he certainly had
no reason to complain of his reception.
As was expected.no objection was made
to his taking the oath of office. There
will be an investigation ot the charges
against him, of course, but it is safe to
say he will serve out his six years'
term, if he lives, and he looks healthy
enough.
Senator Penrose was the only Senator
without a sponsor.
President Roosevelt seems determin
ed to have the Senate reach a decision
of some kind on the appointment of
colored men to office in the South. One
of his first acts Thursday was to re
nominate Dr. W. D. Crnm, colored, for
collector of customs at the port of
Charleston. S. C. At the session just
closed Dr. Crum's nomination was re
ported unfavorably from the Committee
on Commerce by the solid vote of the
Democratic members and of Senators
Joues, of Nevada, and Perkins, of Cali
fornia. Republicans Senator Tilltnnn
made a bitter fight against Crnm and
had much to do with the action of the
committee. It is understood that the
President, should a similar result be
had at this session, will not insist on
the appointment of Crnm, bnt will
promptly name someone else for the
place.
"Grow s Half Century in Congress is
to be the title of a book which ex-Rep
resentative Galusha A. Grow will begin
to write.on his return to his home in
Susquehanna county. after a few
months spent in travel for rest and rec
reation. Next winter he will come to
Washington. wh"re he can convenient
ly consult the records of Congress and
books treating upon the ante-bellum
period in which he was so prominent,
and he will write this work npon his
personal recollections of public men and
affairs during the past half century.
The book will be issued in two volumes.
Mr. Grow saying that it would be im
possible to tell the story of his public
life and matters connected therewith in
bnt one.
On Monday it w&s stated that the op
ponents of the isthmian canal conven
tion in its present form wenld take only
a week to state their objections and
urge amendments. The treatj* will
then be allowed to come to a vote. A
statement to this effect was made by
Senator Morgan. The treaty was con
sidered briefly in the committee on
foreign relations and reported to the
senate, where it was again read. The
senate then adjourned until next day
when Mr. Morgan resumed his argu
ments in favor of amending.
Senator Morgan of Ala. caught his
second wind Tuesday and began a re
hearsal of bis three-weeks speech on the
canal question, for the benefit of the
thirteen new members; but he is ex
pected to break down in a few days,
and then ' senatorial courtesy"' will al
low the bill to pass.

.Sudden Death of Dr. McCall.
The many friends of Dr. E. E. Mc-
Call were unexpectedly summoned to
mourn his death, which occurred, Mon
day evening. Feb. 2i5, at 8:80 o'clock.
He was formerly of this county being
a son of Mr. and Mrs. S. R. McCall.weil
known citizens of this county. lie re
ceived his early education at W. Sun
bury Academy and, after choosing the
medical profession, attended the Balti
more Medical College, where he giadn
ated with honors in 1894. After a brief
visit parents and friends he went to
Lima. Ohio, where be immediately be
gan the practice of medicine. He was
always a conscientious, earnest man
and proved to be one of the ablest of his
profession. He was chosen health offi
cer three years ago and was re-elected
by the board for his second term.
Dr. McCall had for sometime been a
sufferer from kidney trouble. Ilis dis
ease gradually overcame the organs and
uranic poisoning set in causing his
death. He was seemingly in good
health the evening preceeding hisd'-ath,
and retired at 8:110 at the home of bis
uncle, Win. P. Thompson, where he had
his rooms. Hearing a groan Mr. Thomp
son went to his room at 8:80 and found
him unconscious, Dr. was cull
ed and, with other Physicians, was at
his bedside constantly until the end
came, he never having regained con
sciousness. D. E. T.
Funeral of He v. McKee.
The largest assemblage of people ever
gathered together in Butler was that at
the funeral of the late John Shields Mc-
Kee D. D., last Saturday afternoon. In
the church building which stands a
monument to this grand and good man,
on the spot where for nearly nineteen
years he had spoken to his flock in the
fear and love of God, were assembled a
great concourse of all denominations
and from pvery walk of life, many of
whom had come long distances.
It is estimated that 1200 were seated
in the church and it is safe to say that
several hundred tried in vain to gain
admittance.
Dr. McKee's pulpit was draped in
black. In front of it was arranged a
great bank of tloral tributes to his
memory.
The funeral services were conducted
by Pres. It. G. Ferguson of Westminster
ccllege. Rev. Dr. McClelland made a
brief opening prayer. Rev. l)r Mc-
Caslin of Greenville read the scriptures
which was followed by prayer by Dr.
R. M. Russell, pastor of the Sixth
United Presbyterian church of Pitts
burg, in which Dr. McKee was baptized
and raised.
Dr. Ferguson then paid a most touch
ing tribute to the memory of his de
ceased co-laborer In the Lord's vine
yard. One of his closing sentences was
"Earth is poorer by thy going and
Heaven richer."
Dr. PruKh of St. Paul's Orphans home
spoke an the representative of the IJnt
ler clergy, and itev. J. Hal. Breaden of
the West Sunbury United Presbyterian
church, told of Dr. McKoe's faithful
and untiring work in lintler Presbytery.
Rev. Dr. W. I). Witherspoon of A lie
gheuy spoke of Dr. McKee's quit, un
assuming yet never failing and all im
portant work as clerk of the First Synod
of the West and as President of the
Hoard of Directors of Westminster col
lege. During the service the choir hh»k
the 23d, Olut, 43d and 121 st Psalm*.
Dr. S. W. drier, President of the
Allegheny Theological Seminary, pro
nonnced the benediction. The audience
were then accorded one brief sad glance
at the face that once shown with kind
liness and helpful hope, with charity for
all, with zeal for the work of his Master.
Then all that was earthly of John S.
McKee was bora to the North cemetery
and laid to rest.
