that the whole thing be continued
until the December session.
However, others of the conferees
were more hopeful of an ultimate so-

In the afternoon Senator Collins opened the argument in j
favor of the majority report. He too, insisted upon a strict con- I
struction of the constitution. In fact, each of the speakers in- j
sisted the constitution should be the sole guide, but they did not '
construe it the same way. The presence of a little comma in 3
the middle of a sentence enabled some to read the sentence one j
way and some to read it another. And until Senator Bee made j
I his argument, a strict and literal observance of constitutional]
requirements, in whole or in part, was argued back and forth.]
Senator Bee argued for observance of the constitution, but he 1
al pleaded for mercy.
A Senator Lattimore argued also for adoption of the majority
port. He criticized especially the report that the respondent bB
mis case intended to give no heed to the judgment of the senati
court, but purposed “taking the question to the people’’ and be- J
coming again a candidate for the office of governor. He said}
he did not oppose taking any question to the people, for they
were the ones to decide, but the respondent, on the floor of the l
senate in arguing his defense had affirmed his purpose to con* 8
tinue his fight against the university and attempt to destroy it 1
and had sought to array the rich against the poor and class 1
against class, and he thought these matters were such as de- 1
served the severest judgment the senate could inflict. He would,
rather, he said, have the university destroyed than to have an I
effort made to destroy the good name of the university faculty..7
Precedent in Texas.
Senator Bee made the concluding speech for the minority I
report. “We stand at the brink of the first precedent in thia a
state on the question of impeachment,” he said, and contended j
that it was a precedent that would be cited for years to come. He j
took up arguments for the majority report and answered them 2
one by one. In the conclusion he made a special plea for mercy, ]
contend!^ that it was not right or fair to impose the severest J
judgmawror official misconduct and place the respondent where a
he woiiWT be forever disqualified, not having the same rights that I
a common thief or murderer who had been pardoned would have. I
Senator Gibson spoke briefly, stating that he would like to J
vote for the lighter punishment, for judgment of removal from I
office only and against disqualifying the respondent from fur?
ther office-holding under the state of Texas, but he could not do ]
so without violating the constitutional commands as he under- 1
stood them.

WASHINGTON, Sept 25.—Plans
are now in preparation at the war de-
partment, according to information
obtained today, to have a large pro-
portion of the drafted men now enter-
ing training camps in France by early
spring.
It is proposed to give the men the
rudiments of military duty and then
to transport them to the American
base in France. There they will be
put through a course of intensive
training. By these means it is be-
lieved they will develop much more
rapidly as soldiers besides opening
the way to the training of additional
hundreds of thousands to be secured
through a second draft.
This call will be much sooner than

ation is necessary before the work
can proceed. The required appropri-
ation is included in the general defi-
ciency bill now before congress.
Figures are extremely taboo with
the war department these days, but it
is no violation of the spirit of the
letter , of the censorship provisions to
state that it is hoped to move approx-
imately 150,000 to 200,000 of the
drafted men to France to complete
their training there. It is hoped In
sonie quarters that this can be done
by the end of April
Might Enter Trenches in Summer.
These troops would not be available
for trench work until late In the sum-
mer at the earliest, but they would be
in France, and the political effect of
their numbers would be great. The
difficulty is not so much the trans-
porting of the men themselves as
maintaining them once they are over-
seas Expert estimates place the ratio
at twenty tons of shipping to main-
tain one man. By almost continuous
movement of drafted men to France,
after training period here, the war
department believes the instruction of
men here at the camps can be made
more effective. • Selected men would

The mobilization of the United

that while much success is attending
the government’s efforts, the trans-

of men to camps is on a slow schedule
Where there was talk only a few
weeks ago of 750,000 men in France
by spring, the prospects now are that
the active fighting forces—regulars
and national guard—will be nearer
200,000 than 750,000.
The national guard has been mobil- l
lied for six weeks. Approximately
100.000 men remain to move to camp.

WASHINGTON, Sept 25.—Admin-

with defiance Republican members
of the house declared they intend to

of Heflin, Howard and other mem-

Early in the day is devloped that
the administration belleved it wise to
let the Bernstorff fund and the Heflin
charges drop. The foreign affairs
committee, which yesterday failed to
bring In an expected resolution call-
ing forthe probe, today dropped out
of the case altogether. The rules

CHICAGO, Sept. 25.—Shortly after
the arrival of Col. Theodore Roosevelt
in Chicago tonight, Mayor W. H.
Thompson, in a very short statement.
■ officially announced his candidacy for'
the United States senate.
The mayor declared that he wished
the issue between war agitators and
those for an honorable peace clearly
and distinctly drawn.
"I shall not be mealy-mouthed. I
shall handle the situation without
gloves.”
The foregoing statement Colonel
James E. Ferguson, formerly gov-
ernor of Texas, filed his resignation
as governor with the secretary of
state on Monday night, so it was re-
ported Tuesday night, although no an-
nouncement of it had ottr made ty
C. J. Iartlett, secretary of state, dur-
ing the day. Immediately after giv-
ing publicity to this he announced as
a third term candidate for governor.
The resignation was dated and
filed after the senate had voted last
Saturday on the articles of impeach-
ment presented, finding the respond-
ent guilty on ten of the counts, so
it is said to be very doubtful if Mr.
Ferguson had any office to resign
Monday night, although the actual
form of the judgment had not then
been adopted by the senate.
Following the filing of his real gna-
tion. the former governor issued a
lengthy statement for the press, in
which he repeated much he had pre-
viously told of an alleged conspiracy
against and fight made on him, de-
clared the action of the senate to be
