If auch a practice were lndulre.1 In. no business of a iteneral nature could be transacted at tha prwtot aoa-ilon. He ursred tha Senate to "net down to business." Forah Intimated that In hla own opinion the Senator from Maine waa not practlctnir what be prcarhed: that the latter, when the resolution provid ing for direct election of United States Henatora waa offered last Friday, sought to prevent consideration by morteir an adjournment. Kale defended hlmaelf vigorously, repcatlnc hla wamlnar of complete failure of general legislation. Ily what appeared to be In further ance of a plan of the "old guard" to till the rising storm. Oalllnger moved that the bill be laid aside until to morrow. llrovD Insisted that con sideration of the bill proceed. Ualltnger argued that the granting of the proposed bounty would do -much toward breaking upthe -Illegal Euro pean ahtp combine." Burton would not consent that any such combination could bo dissolved by a "subsldr steamship line," and when Galltndcr expostulated with him. he demanded that the New Hampshire Senator ahould state bis object In try ing to obtain subsidy legislation. "My object la patriotic." responded Oalllnger. "I do not want to see our battleships convoyed around the world again by foreign colliers." Responding. llurton characterized this expression as mere sentiment. -And sentiment would be well snough." he added. "If not too often accompanied by unwarranted drafts on the treasury." Gallinger. visibly vexed, retorted that he had "not been In the habit of putting his hands into tho treasury vault." When, however. Burton said that no personal allualon had been content plated, his antagonist waa mollified and the day ended peacefully. If fu ttlely. BALLINGER IS GRILLED Senator rurccll Sy He I Tnflt for Office. WASHINGTON. Jan. lT.-Secretary fulliniccr was the object today of an at tack by Senator Purcell. of North I'a-k-.t.i. The Senator delivered a speech In support of hla resolution submitted es:erday to the Senate, declaring that Secretary Halllr-cer wa unfit to retain Ma office in the Administration because of Ms alleged maladministration of de partmental affairs. Mr. Purcell waa a member of tlie, so-called Ballln-fer-Pn-cli-t InvesKlcatlng committee. "The overwhelming weight or the evi dence taken by the committee satisfies me that Mr. Ualltnger was not faithful to the Interests of the people Is not an efficient public servant, and that the resolution off.red ought to be adopted." de' Iared Mr. Purcoll. The Senator b-an hl argument with the period of I'm', when Mr. llalllnger was l'oromlMlonr of the I.and Office, lie dlwussed the Cunningham claims, which ha h'ld to be indefensible and mlth which he directly connected Mr. Balan ce r. He dwelt with special emphasis on the fut-t that Balllnger on resigning his com m!PionersMp became attorney for the ('tmnlneham claimants, "in clear viola tion of the law whlc'.i prohibits an of ficial who has left the public service from appearing as counsel in a case with w hich he ha dealt whilo In office." FRANKLIN'S WIFE PRAISED Cditor Irture-i on Palrtollc Work of Great American. The versatility and the patriotism t.f Benjamin Franklin were the sub ject of a lecture delivered laat night In the Scottish Kite Cathedral. Fifteenth and X'orrUon streets by John F. Car. roll, editor and manager of the Evening Telegram. It was one of a aerlea of levtures belrg given this Winter In the Scottish Kite Cathedral.

"As a cltlxen. a humanitarian, a srl- ntlst. a philosopher, a diplomat and a pa-riot, the world never has known his e.iual." said Mr. Carroll.

NO BOOMS ARE LAUNCHED Leaders of Triumphant Party Admit It I on Probation and Must Do as Promised Blackburn Gives 'evr Nationalism Rap. (Continued From First Pas of the Republican party In the Inst campaign, and with equal frankness the Democratic leaders acknowieagea that. If they did not deal wisely with .i... i mnA fulfill the hones of the country, Democratlo success would be short-lived. And when they were not discussing the tariff, the Democratic leadors were calling out shouts of laughter and rounds of applause by their witty and at times vitriolic attacks on the grand old party. The whole breed of elephants, it waa announced, would be exterminated in 131S. Theodore Roosevelt came In for a large share of tne maledictions hurled .h. ij.nuMi-nn nartv. ExSenator J. C. 8.

' Bailey said Democrats were In accord as to the necessity and the extent to which the tariff should be revised and the principle which should underlie that revision. The only difference of opinion, he asserted, would be on tho method of revision. -l.eta prepaie a tariff bill exactly as If we had control of the Senate and the Presidency." he said, "and then. If the Republicans of the Senate refuse to tuke It up. that will be time enough to talk about revision schedule by schedule. If we are not capable of preparing a complete tariff bill we will disappoint the hopes of the country and dash the prospects of the Democratic party. Lay every duty for revenue and none for protection." New Nationalism Rapped. On rapping "new nationalism." Black burn Instated that the three co-ordlnato branches of the Government should bo kept separate and distinct, and that there should be no encroachments one upon another. He said the Constitution clearly defined the functions of each. On the stage, in addition to the speak ers, were many members of Congress and leading Democrata of Maryland. Senator Tillman, of South Carolina; Sen ator Rayner. of this state: Henry Gasso wny Davis, of West Virginia; Senator Foster of Loulslans; Major James C. Hemphill, of Vlrglnis. and other not ables were In the front row. Several Democratic Governors, elected In November, were unable to come. The absentees Included Governors Foss, of Massachusetts, Dlx. of New York, Wil son, of New Jersey, and Marshall, of Indiana. The throng In the city today was greatly augmented tonight when a spe cial train from Washington brought practically every member of the House and Senate over to attend the banquet which marked the close of the jubilee. All Sections to Be Considered. "To me the truth that appears most clearly on the face of the returns," said Bailey, "is that our party can never hope to win a triumph worth celebrating In this splend'd manner which does not Include some achieve ment In the North as well as In the South, and In the East aa well aa In the West. "The blind guides who have from time to tlpie urged the Democrats of the South to repudiate their brothers of the North and East and seek as sistance only In the West must regard the result of the election with amaze ment and chagrin, for the dullest of there cannot be Insensible to the fact that, had we followed their advice, we mm would even now be walking: with down cast faces through that valley over which forever falls the shadow of de feat." The Senator laid stress on the neces sity of avoiding hereafter all appeals to passion and prejudice. The elec tion, he pointed out. disclosed clearly that the safer way was to appeal to the reason of the voters. He also ad vocated a middle course In party prog ress, avoiding what are commonly known as the "progressive" or the "conservative" camps. "The Democratic party believes In progress," he declared, "but It believes still more In safety, and It will never hasard the future of this country by rejecting what has been tried and found to serve a noble purpose In a vain attempt to realise the Iridescent dream of socialism." Harmon Gives Tariff Views. In the course of his speech. Harmon said: "The people have turned to us so far as they can at this time, and they have done It with full knowledge of our views on the tariff. They know we believe raising of public revenue to be the proper object of all taxation; that whatever the process, the Government can and does tax nobody but Its own citizens, from whom comes every dollar t gets; that tariff taxes, being laid on articles for consumption, apportion themselves among the people, accord ing to the amounts consumed, so that levying them properly means an adjustment of burdens among consum ers, according to their ability to pay. and not a distribution among manu facturers of rights to collect tribute from consumers." ' Harmon, referring to the great In crease In National expenditures under Republican rule, said: "Give us a look at the books and Into the methods of doing business and we will tell. We now have the oppor tunity. Let us take It." In State of Probation Clark. "When we analyze the figures of the last election." said Clark in the course of his speech, "It will be seen that the result was not so much a vic tory for the Democrats as a defeat for the Republicans. Our success was the result largely of the stay-at-home vote. Therefore, we are really In a state of probation. The country has concluded to give us another chance to demonstrate our fitness to conduct the government after IS years of exclusion from power." Mr. Clark admitted that the victory of November waa a surprise to the rank and file of the Democratic party. He added that with the inspiration born of victory, the party bad "more than an even chance, of sweeping the country from sea to sea In 1912." "This glorious result can be accom plished," he continued, "by the very simple process of carrying out relig iously the promises which we made In order to win laat November. All those who have eyes see and having ears hear know that the G. O. P. was brought to death's door because In 1909 It failed to do what In 190S It promised to do." He said that the Democratic House caucus on Thursday would appoint the Democratic members of the ways and means committee, who would prepare a tariff revision bill before the new Con gress convened. He also promised that the Democrata would reduce appropria tions. Bill for Klght-Hour Bay. STATE CAPITOL. Salem. Or- Jan. 17. (Special.)

NINTH MAN NEAR DEATH Vessel on Way Home to Carry Body or Chilean Minister to Chile Itas Disaster One Body Disfig ured Beyond Recognition. WASHINGTON. Jan. 17. Eight men met Instantaneous death, and one was so horribly burned that he probably will die. as a result of a boiler explo sion today aboard the battleship Dela ware, the cause of which Is yet unex plained, according to a wlrelesa mes sage tonight to the Navy Department from Captain Gove. The Delaware was on her way to Hampton Koads from Guantanamo, Cuba, and had been designated to trans port the body of Senor Cruxe, late Chilean Minister to the United States, to Chile. Instead of the South Carolina, whose propellers met with a mishap. The victim were on duty in the boiler-room when tho accident oc curred. A terrific shock sent the crew scurrying below, and nine bodies were dragged from the cloud of hot steam that passed through the hold. Captain Gove wired the Navy Depart ment the names of the eight men killed, but the identification of the ninth victim, who was carried from the boiler-room with traces of life in him. waa designated "unknown" In Captain Gove's message. A board of officers of the vessel waa appointed by Captain Gove to investi gate the accident. The dead are: Charles Henry Harp. William Morris White. Columbus Porter Watts, Herbert Anderson Brewer, all firemen. Lewis Addison White, Clarence Dewitt. coal passers. iThrlsttan Jensen, water tender. Unknown man. Eugene Phillips, a fireman, waa bad ly Injured. MURPHY MAY LOSE FIGHT (Continued From First Page.) are out'of'lt. A Joint ballot will be taken at noon tomorrow, but there Is no chance of the election of Mr. Shee han. unless some of the Insurgents yield from their present stand. . State Leadership Tested. Mr. Murphy's state leadership is having Its first test. Its candidate Is Mr. Shee han and he is so exasperated over the opposiUon to his plans which has come from the "tenderfeet." as they are termed by the Tammany men, that he has prac tically declared that he will continue to fight the battle for Mr. Sheehan even If the Legislature is tied up all Winter. In his present mood he is welcoming no suggestions for a compromise. He is bringing to bear upon the recal citrant legislators all the power and In fluence at the command of a resourceful leader, but thus far he has been thwarted on all sides. Twenty-one Are Defiant, The 31 Democratic Senators and As semblymen who laat night perfected an organization, today Issued an ulti matum to the leader of Tammany and to all others who have been urging them to surrender their position. They sent word that no power In the world can force them to vote for Sheehan. That means that Sheehan cannot be elected unless some arrangement Is made with the Republicans whereby enough of them remain away from their seats to make the 91 votes which Mr. Sheehan has, a majority of all tho votes cast. As things stand, Mr. Shee han lacks ten of a majority of the whole joint ' vote of both Houses and there Is no place for him to get In these votes except from the ranks of the Insurgents, who certainly give every evidence of "sitting tight." Dlx May Take Hand. Governor Dlx, according to well de fined rumors. Is deeply stirred bjr the bitterness of the fight and the pros pects for a prolonged continuance of It If Murphy persists in forcing the election of Sheehan, and it would not cause surprise in well informed circles If the Governor actually came out and took a hand in the situation, in fact. It Is stated tonight that his close per sonal friend and his first appointee. Charles E. Treroau, State Superinten dent of Public Works, will tomorrow' try to reconcile the warring elements. Mr. Murphy believes that he will find a. way to disrupt the body of Insurgents and to capture enough of them to elect his candidate. Voting Is Shown.
