WASHINGTON. Feb. 16. One-half of
the United States Navy should be kept
on the Pacific Coast at all times, in the
opinion of the Senate. An amendment to
the naval bill was agreed to tonight pro
viding that in the discretion of the Pres
ident one-half of the Navy shall be kept
In Pacific waters, so far as practicable.
The President already has the authority
so to divide the fleet, but the amendment
amounts to an expression of Congress In
favor of such action.
As the amendment was Introduced orig
inally the division of the Navy was man
datory. AYotild Keep Out Japs.
Flint eaid he understood the people of
the Atlantic Coast did not care for the
fleet, and the people of the Pacific did.
"Would half of the fleet on the Pa
rifle Coast keep the Japanese out of
California?" afked Nelson.
"I think so." replied Flint.
Urging the adoption of the provision,
Fulton declared there are gTcat Interests
on the Pacific Coast which need protec
tion, and there Is more danger of attacks
being made on that coast than on the
Atlantic seaboard.
At Hale's suggestion the provision was
mended so as to leave the question of
the division to the Secretary of the Navy,
end later this was amended at Bacon's
suggestion so as to give the discretion to
:he President.
Attacks Xavy-j-ard Graft.
Dixon of Montana continued his stric
tures of the plan of having many navy
yards along the Atlantic and Gulf Coasts
Instead of three or four great naval
bases. He declared millions of dollars
were wasted annually by the scattering
of the work through many navy-yards.
He particularly demanded Information
as to the necessity for a foundry costing
JT5O.0OO for the Portsmouth Navy-Yard,
which preclrttated a long discussion on
the merits of several yards for repair
work.
Tillman taunted Dixon with being "a
Senator from the Rocky Mountains who
has come here to tell us how to build
a Navy."
"It Is," he continued, "easier to sit
on a mountain peak out In Montana and
read magazine criticisms of the Navy
than to run the Navy."
Replying to Tillman, who charged him
with being prejudiced against the South
ern yards, Dixon 6aid he was a South
erner and had no such prejudice, and
that, so far as he knew, Charleston might
be the best place for a great naval sta
tion. McEnery, of Louisiana, declared hos
tility in the Navy Department against
the navy-yards of Louisiana prevented
any ship from being sent there for re
pairs. Xo Muckraking, Says Tillman.
Dixon Insisted that the naval committee
was composed almost entirely of Sen
ators who had navy-yards in their states,
but Hale and TUlman suggested similar
conditions In other communities. Tillman
objected to bringing "muckraking" Into
the Senate.
Tillman declared that there was a
"clique In the Navy Department who
wanted to break up the Charleston
Navy-yard." Dixon replied that he
only spoke In favor of consolidation.
"If I stood Indicted In this article,"
said Dixon, referring to a magazine ar
ticle, "I would answer it. I think It
Is a matter of self-respect that the
Senate, Congress and the Administra
tion should answer these charges,
which are made openly. The people of
the country believe these articles,
whether we do or not."
Dixon strenuously denied filibuster
ing against the bill, contending he had
the same rights as any other Senator,
and feelingly suggested that he was
willing to acknowledge Hale's leader
ship in the J-'enate. Dixon declared
that "we don't know where we are
driving" In making these appropria
tions and pointed out that "we are
confronted by a deficit of 1150,000,000."
Keep Marines on Miips.
After an extended discussion upon
the wisdom of keeping marines on
board warships and upon the constitu
tional power of the President to com
mand the Army and Navy, the Senate
adopted a committee amendment di
recting that the appropriation for the
marines should only be available In
the event of their being Quartered on
board the ships of the Navy, according
to former custom.
Many Senators discussed the power of
Congress to int'-rfere in the command y
the i resident of the Army and Navy.

Tutt Thrashes Wees With
Quirt and Fists.
SPARKS. Nov., Feb. 1. E. M. Wees,
assistant Chief of Police of Sparks,
was publicly whipped In front of the
Sparks postofflce today shortly after

ence of a large crowd that gathered

over the head and shoulders before
he was nhle to wrest the weapon fro
her. Then she struck him with her
fist, knocklnir his nipe from his moul
and was about to throw his watch Into
the street when a, constable placed
both under arrest.
Mrs. Tutts said Wees had told her
husband that she had stayed all night
In a Reno hotel -with another man, ana
this had caused her great anguish, so
much so that she was determined to
punish him. She declares that "he got
what any man should get who tries to
tear to tatters a woman's reputation."
The whipping affair Is said to be the
culmination of strife between the city
and county officers of Sparks.

Heart Fails After He Has Performed
Feat at Salt Lake; to Which
Wife Dared Him.
SALT LAKE, Utah. Feb. 16. (Spe
cial.) Dr. Henry Hopkins, of Eugene,
Or., aged 64, and a veteran of the Civil
War, succumbed to heart- failure Just
after emerging from a plunge in the
sanitarium baths here this afternoon.
Dr. Hopkins, accompanied by his wife
and daughter-in-law, Mrs. Mary Hop
kins, arrived In Salt Lake this morning,
on the way to Sallda, Colo., where his
five Sons are interested In mining and
where Dr. and Mrs. Hopkins expected to
make their home. They stopped over in
Salt Lake to visit another daughter-in-law,
Mrs. Martha Hopkins, who Is an em
ploye "In the sanitarium baths.
This afternoon Dr. -Hopkins went Into
the pool, his wife, Mrs. Martha Hopkins,
and another woman sitting In the gallery
watching him. Mrs. Hopkins dared him
to swim the length of the pool. He did
so, but was so exhausted that he
clambered up the steps to rest. The
women then withdrew.
No one saw Hopkins when he left the
pool, but it appears, that he went to his
dressing-room and . was taking off his
bathing suit when he toppled over In his
death seizure. Men In adjoining rooms
heard the fall, but could not gain en
trance until an attendant clambered
through the transom and found - that
Hopkins had fallen forward, his head
striking the door and forming the ob
stacle. On the statement of the widow and
others of the family that the doctor had
been subject to heart trouble for a num
ber of years, no Inquest will be held.
The five sons In Colorado were notified
by telegraph tonight and are now on
their way here to attend the funeral. The
Interment will take place in this city un
der the direction of the Grand Army of
the Republic.

Van Cleave Recommends Temporary
Work at Extra Session AVith
Commission to Gather Facts
for Future Action.
INDIANAPOLIS, Feb. 16. Business and
Mlltical representatives Joined today at
the first ssssion of the National Tariff
Convention in denouncing the present tar
iff as an unfair, unscientific and Illogical
series of compromises and expedients.
While views as to the functions of the
proposed tariff commission varied, the
epeakers were as one In asserting its Im
mediate necessity. Chairman Van Cleave
and ex-Governor Guild urged revision
of the tariff from divergent standpoints,
but were agreed on the position that
present conditions demand the constitu
tion of a" tariff commission atonce.
Agree on Urgent Need.
On ihe nature of the commission,
whether it should be a permanent bureau
and an adjunct to the Department of
Commerce and Labor, an appointive com
mission, one composed of experU only, or
a body of business men empowered to
engage experts, the speakers differed, but
of the urgent need for it there seemed
no dispute.
J. W. VanCleave. of St. T.ouis. presi
dent of the National Association of Man
ufacturers, who was the permanent
chairman, aroused the first enthusiasm
by asserting that the tariff must be
taken out of partisan polities. Congress
man Fowler, of New Jersey, who is
sponsor for the Beveriuge commission bill
now before Congress, asserted that the
tariff must cease to be the football of
parties.
Mr. Guild, spoke concerning the alleged
combination of Chicago packers, the duty
on hides, the alleged victimizing of the
American farmer. Senator Brown, of
Nebraska, did not except himself when
speaking of the mystification of the aver
age Congressman on the subject of the
tariff and Henry R. Towne questioned
vigorously the ability of the members of
tho ways and means committee to deal
intelligently with the subject.
Mr. Van Cleve opened his address by
saying:

miral Robley D. Evans, who assisted In
vanquishing Admiral Cervera and who
later set forth at the head of the Amer
ican battleship fleet on what has turned
out to be the greatest cruise to date, lost
his first engagement last night. His
humble enemy was only a soup plate full
of oyster scallops, but they penetrated
his armor belt and for a short time made
a sicker man of him than the waves of
the ocean ever have.
He struck his flag early In the even
ing and took to bed, but even then his
tiny opponents did not give up, but har
rassed him considerably through this
morning. By noon, however, he was able
to sit up and take reinforcements of
nourishment that soon restored him to
his healthy, hardy self. Afterward he
felt well enough to send down for his
favorite brand of cigarette, and then
chatted pleasantly of affairs, naval and
otherwise, through the smoke.
MONEY LEFT IN GARBAGE
And Seattle Scavenger Drives Off
With $200 Unwittingly.
SEATTLE. Wash., Feb. 16. (Special.)
An unidentified garbage man carted
away $200 in real money from a store on
Second avenue yesterday and thus far

rick. Through an oversight the money
box was taken out of the store's safe and
placed temporarily on the top of a filled
garbage can. The incident was forgotten
for several hours and when it was re
called it was found that the garbage
man had been around and had taken
away the can and the money. He is not
due back for a day or two and In the
meantime the chances of recovering the
strong-box and Its contents are growing
slimmer.

CHICAGO. Feb. IS. An engineer
and fireman, both employed in the
Federal building, were taken Into
custody today on a charge of at
tempting to extort money from
Colonel W. F. Tucker, who is en
deavoring to be honorably retired
by the Army Board in session here.
The men, the police assert, procured
from the waste sent to the boiler
room to be burned personal letters
sent to Colonel Tucker and then at
tempted to sell them to him.
CHICAGO, Feb. 16. (Special.) That
Colonel William F. Tucker will not be
tried by the Army Retiring Board for
the moral offenses with which he is
charged, became certain and that lie
will be put on the retired list without
military disgrace and pensioned on a
basis of three-quarters of his full pay
as an officer became a strong probabil
ity today In the light of advices from
Washington, which Indicate that much
of the evidence of Mrs. Mary Logan
Tucker, the Colonel's wife, and of Mrs.
John A. Logan will be excluded from
the hearing.
Don't Consider Moral Obliquity.
'According to these advices, a letter
dispatched to Major-Genoral Fred D.
Grant, president of the Board, by Adjutant-General
Benjamin Alvord lays
down a hard and fast rule for the con
duct of the investigation and instructs
the members of the Board that It Is
not within their province to consider
the alleged "moral obliquity" of Colonel
Tucker. They must confine their de
liberations solely to the physical cause
of his incapacity. 1
This letter of Instruction quotes sec
tions of an opinion in a similar case,
rendered by the Judge-Advocate-General
in May, 1S66, definitely limiting
the authority of the retiring officers.
