'It is my opinion that Mr. Clayton
will not be seated," said Senator Over

committee.
The members of the Judiciary com
mittee and a majority of the lawyers of
the Senate were of the, opinion that
the 17th amendment to the Constitu

thority to appoint a Senator except
under express directions from the Leg

that when Mr. Clayton presented his
credentials as a Senator objections
would be raised immediately and the
credentials would go to the committee
on privileges and elections for a re

Vrom His Home City.
MILWAUKEE, Aug. 12. Socialism,
mmoral dances, anti-Catholic press re
ports and the action of mine owners in
Lead. S. D., were scored today in the
adoption of resolutions during the aft
ernoon session of the American Fed
eration of Catholic Societies.
Delegates representing the three mil
lion Catlvolie members of the various
societies voted unanimously to tele

same properties, and to F. J. Guer, of
Lead, superintendent, emphatically pro
testing against the abnormal conditions
in Lead, which the federation asserts
impeded the work of religion and
which has caused Bishop Bush to be
exiled from the city of his diocese.
In his speech yesterday Bishop Bush
said the miners were not allowed the
benefits of Sunday rest and that when
he protested to Mrs. Hearst and other
mining holders he was subjected to
such criticism that he was forced to,
remove from the seat of his diocese.
As a result of this speech the social
section on churches decided to make a
protest, and the convention favored
the movement.
Graduation exercises at public
schools and denominational churches
were scored in the report of the edu
cational committee as presented by the
Rev. Mgr. Patrick J. Supple, of Boston.
The resolutions proclaimed the in
herent right of the Catholic child to a

schools was voiced in the resolutions
as was the admittance of Catholic
