MAY GO TO SPECIAL SESSION
Beveridge Says He Wants to Reply to
the Defense Made lor Illinois Scn-
ator and Bailey >lay Make An-
other Speech.
Washington, Keb. 2,1 " There is
now some doubt whether the I.ori-
mer opponents wilt let the senate
come to a vote on the Lorimer case
this session. This question is now
occupying the attention of the in-
surgent senators, who realize that a
vote at this session would result in
Lorimer retaining his seat, and they
incline to the belief that the next
senate might deal with the question
differently than the present body,
in which reciprocity and Lorimer
are said to be so intimately mixed.
This course lias not been fully de-
cided upon, as far as can be learned,
but the lumber of anti-Lorimer
speeches which are yet to come in-
dicate a desire to prevent haste in
voting on the subject.
Senator Lorimer s speech in his
own behalf yesterday afternoon was
in some respects a remarkable ef-
fort. It was distinguishable for its
tactnesa, rather than for its elo-
quence and for its shrewd political
appeal to the democrats, rather
than for its relevance to tile issues
raised by the resolution to declare
his election invalid by reason of its
accomplishment through alleged
bribery The speech in itself was not
dramatic but the situation created
by a senator speaking against hav-
ing liis title to a seat in the spnate
vitiated was dramatic.
The heated part of the iron

hood with a dead air-space,

Tile iron retains heat while

The beveled edges of As-
bestos irons allow easy gliding

Bailey is also expected to make an-
other speech in behalf of the accus-

Whiteplains, X. Y . Feb 23,-—An
early morning fire destroyed six
downtown blocks at a loss of half
a million dollars. A hotel conduct-
ed by Admiral Dot, dwarf for Bar-
nuin-BaUey show, was burned. Ted
Carpenter, a merchant, dropped
dead front excitement.
San Antonio, Tex., Feb. 23.
March 11th has been set aside as
official "clean tip'' dav and every
city and town of any size in Texas
will, metaphorically speaking, get
out with a scrubbing brttsn and
oroont. A great many cities in this
state are preparing to go at tuis
"clean up” work in a systematic
mat,tier. Many mayors it _vo nam-
ed committees to take the lead in
a section of their town and thus in-
sure that, every part will be looked
after carefully. Cut while the peo-
ple of the state are preparing to
put a real spring polish oa every-
thing it must be admitted that this
movement is not the result of the
activity of the men. For some
time the women's clubs all over the;
state have been clamoring for;
cleaner cities and towns and the'-
general state-wide movement is due |
in a large measure to their efforts.
In this town cleaning, just as in
I the home, when a woman equips
herself with a dust cap made out
of a towel and goes forth with a
dust pan and broom, cleanliness is
the result. It is safe to assume
that with tlte women's clubs of the
state as an exciting cause, Texas
will be clean from the Red River
to the Gulf, and from Orange to
El Paso, after March 11th.

Dallas. Feb. 23. Fire Commis-

destroyed by fire from a gas man-
tle this morning The commissioner
sent in the alarm himself and got
busy taking cut furniture while his
men saved the house, excepting the
roof and elegant furnishings were
drenched by water. The loss was
three thousand dollars. Tlte com-
missioner praised the work of the
