Feb. 24 The Governor, at the request of the judge presiding, respites until March 20 Andrew Sherman Jackson, the white man under sentence to be hanged at Lincolnton next Wednesday for burglary. CHARGE There was the utmost 'confusion on the floor of the Senate when Senator Pritchard of North Carolina, who is a personal friend of McLaurin. took advantage of the opportunity to begin a prepared speech on the tariff bill. At this point, however, McLaurin again rose and stated that he had not yet concluded his remarks "when he was so unceremoniously Interrupted." But Senator Teller promptly called "the senator from South Carolina" to order.

"Which one?" said McLaurin. "This one," responded Teller, indicating McLaurin, but then adding: "and the other one, too, for that matter." Senator Foraker of Ohio now addressed the chair, and stated that "some way ought to be found to preserve the dignity of this body," and Senator Burrows of Michigan, chairman of the committee on privileges and elections, interposed to say that "the Senate cannot let such a thing as this pass." Senator Foraker then moved that the Senate go into secret legislative session. This motion was promptly put by the chair and carried, the spectators in the galleries reluctantly left their seats, the doors were lock-id, and the Senate proceeded to deliberate upon the matter In secret. The result of these deliberations was announced an hour and a half later, when the doors were again reopened. Both Senators had been declared in contempt, and their cases had been referred to the committee on privileges and elections.

Before the Incident ended for the day, however, the Senate voted to give both men a chance to attempt to purge themselves of contempt. Each thereupon expressed his regrets and apologized to the Senate, but only in the most perfunctory manner, and the Senate decUned to declare whether they had Indeed purged themselves. The effect of this failure to act is to leave both senators without the right to be heard by the Senate until that body has taken further action, which it probably will not do until after the committee has reported. HYAMS TO BE CLERK. (Special to The Citizen.

Washington, D. Feb. 24. It is understood that W. ams.secretary to Senator Pritch- ard will succeed Charles F.

Mc- Kesson as clerk of the United States court at Ashevllle. The change will be made next month. SENSATIONAL Sensational charges have been ma ander. Papers were this afternoon filed in charging Dr. Clontz with the abduct care for treatment.

Dr. Clontz is charged with taking AGAINST Senator Benjamin Tillman. Spooner which Republican Senator it was whom he referred to as his "Lriend," Tillman replied that he had a number of friends on that side of the chamber, "because personally you are a nice set of men. But politically yoti are cowards and hypocrites." DR.

24. Prince Henry of Prussia and sufle, acompanied by the welcoming delegates from both the President and German embassy, arrived at 10:20 this morning. The rear of the train was closely guarded by secret service men. Secretary of State Hay, Secretary of the Navy Long, Assistant Secretary of State Pearce and Count Quadt and two other ataches from the German embassy awaited the arrival of the train. A bugle call by the cavalryman stationed outside announced the arrival of the train.

The welcoming party passed quickly Into the princ's car and informally extended him a welcome to the city. Commanded Cowles, President Roosevelt's brother-in-law and Adjutant General Corbin were the first to alight and the prince was not far behind. Walking rapidly and smiling to the group of officials, detectives and newspaper men, he crossed the depot aisle and entered the reception room. Finally Prince Henry accompanied by Secretary Hay and Rear Admiral Evans entered the last of the Open carriages. The carriages dashed at rapid speed to the head of the column.

Instantly the police and military escorts wheeled into position and the party started up Pennsylvania avenue for the White House. AT THE WHITE HOUSE. Washington, Feb. 24. Rarely in history has the White House been the scene of a more brilliant spectacle than today when President Roosevelt welcomed to the United States Prince Henry of Prussia.

PRINCE'S ARRIVAL. New York, Feb. 24. Prince Henry Prussia, representative of his brother, the emperor of Germany, at the launching of the latter's American built yacht, reached New York yesterday and was cordially welcomed as a' guest of the nation. The land batteries that guard the outer harbor sounded the first greeting In a ponderous salute of 21 guns, the rifles of a special naval squadron assembled in his honor reechoed the sentiment, there were verbal greetings from the representatives of Prsident Roosevelt, the army, the navy and the city of New York and a great crowd lined the way into the city to see and cheer the sailor-prince of Germany.

Rear Admiral Robley Evans, commander of the special squadron and honorary aide to the prince, left the 'flagship Illinois at 9:40 in the naval tug Nina. With him were Captain G. A. Comers, his chief of staff; Flag Lieutenant Fredrick Chapin, Ensign Frank T. Evans, aide, and Captain Rebur-Pachwitz, naval attache at the Wash ington embassy of the German government.

Prince Henry, attired in the uniform of an admiral of the German navy, and surrounded by his naval and military staff in brilliant uniform, stood on the bridge of the liner. As the naval tug drew nearer to the side of the steamship Prince Henry and Admiral Evans caught sight of each other and exchanged informal salutes. As he passed the bis American flag floating over the fortifications he touched his cap in salute and the members of his suite did likewise. The flag at the jackstaff of the Kronz Prinz was dipped and the German naval band accompanying the prince played "The Star Spangled Ban- rer." The guns of Fort Wadsworth were not silent before those across the narrows at Fort Hamilton boomed out their salute. Then the Kron Prinz was stopped and Admiral Evans and his staff boarded her.

Admiral Evans was escorted forward and the prince came forward and took jthe hand of the naval officer and shook it firmly. "I am very glad to see you, sir," said the admiral. "Everybody In i the United States is waiting to welcome you. It is my pleasure, sir, to formally 1 greet you in their behalf." "I thank you, sir, and through you i the people of your country," responded I the prince. "I am very glad to be here jfnd on this splendid day.

The emperor directed me to convey his compH-! ments to you, admiral, and I do so with very great pleasure." Admiral Evans expressed gratiflca-I tion at the thoughtfulness of the em- peror. He presented the numbers of his staff and the prince gave each a handshake and a cordial word. The prince smiled when he faced the j-ewspaper writers who are to accompany him on his tour, and after their presentation said he was quite" sure that their relations would be very hap- i py. At 10:50 the liner was abreast of the t-peeial squadron off Tompkinsvillet The i German standard was run to the fore-j top of the Kron Prinz and its ce gave signal to the American fleet Jto salute. The San Francisco, Cincin-'t Olympia and Illinois lay In per-' vet alignment in the Order named and uide an attractive picture with their crews manning the sides, turrets and tops.

He returned a few days ago, bringing the girl with him. It is said that he left the train at Alexander 10 miles below Asheville and that the girl got oft at Gorman's, Bridge, five miles. this side of Alexander. The papers for Dr.

When the Senate met both South Carolina senators were on the floor. McLaurin came in first and Tillman just as the chaplain offered prayer. A small bunch of rod roses and white carnations lay Tillman's desk. Pritchard, Republican of North Carolina, at the request of idcLaurin, offered a resolution directing the privileges and elections committee to Investigate Tillman's charges that McLaurin was improperly influenced to vote for the Spanish peace treaty. The resolution was referred to that committee.

In the debate that followed on the Philippines tariff bill McCumas of Maryland, denied Wellington's charges that the former was influenced to vote for the treaty by promises of President Wellington showed intense feeling. GATES HAD KEY TO HANDCUFFS Deputies W. P. Brown. A.

The eccentricities and pitchfork methods of Senator Tiliman of South Carolina, and his indulgence in those characteristic methods which have made him for seven years a peculiar figure in the Senate of the United States, have at last culminated in a scene so disgraceful that even that stolid body has risen in unanimous defence of its outraged dig nity ana declared him. together with his colleague, McLaurin. "in contempt! of the Senate," and raised the question whether either of them shall longer be suffered to retain his seat. As a result of this final intolerably disgraceful outbreak from him, the committee on privileges and elections are charged with the duty of determining whether the Senate cannot now be purged of both Tillman and McLaurin's presence, and they have full power if they see fit to recommend their expulsion. There is no precedent for such a scene during an open session of the Senate as was enacted Saturday afternoon with both Senators from South Carolina as the principals.

Senators have been assaulted before in that chamber, but never before have blows been exchanged while the Senate was in session. This sensational climax of Tillman's career, and to his controversy with his colleague, came at 3 o'clock, at the end of an acrimonious debate. Senator Tillman took the flour immediately after the reading of Washington's farewell address, with which the Senate always honors the 22d of Febru-and in his efforts to destroy the effect of Senator Spooner's speech of Friday, he became involved with that Senator nd several other Republicans as well, including Senators Dolliver of Iowa. Burton of Kansas and Lodge of Massachusetts. It was the Senator from Wisconsin who pinned Tillman down to the statement which subsequently resulted in his assault upon Senator McLaurin.

Senator Spooner came into the Senate Just as Tillman had worked himself up to his highest pitch. On being Jocularly asked by Senator One of the most important things a druggist does is putting up prescriptions. There is no drug store where this feature has more scrupulous attention than here.

CHI This outburst was not taken seriously, but in a moment Senator Tillman began to speak of the ratification of the of peace, and during his remarks on this subject he insinuated sneering-that the necessary votes had been cured by improper methods. "You know how you got them," he shouted, -linking his finger at Senator Spooner. "No, I don't know how I got them," Senator Spooner responded with emphasis, rising from his seat.

"How did we get them?" Tillman replied with veiled references about Democratic Senators who had been "influenced." and Senator Spooner retorted by calling upon him to name them. This Tillman said he could not do because he had received the Information in confidence. "The man who Impugns another confidence," answered Senator Spooner contemptuously; "is a coward." Tillman declared that the charge of cowardice did not-rest wpon him; he believed that Improper influences had been used, but he could not prove It. "Then I would not say it," declared Senator Spooner. "Well," shouted patronage of one state was given to one senator who voted for the treaty." "Name the state!" instantly demanded Senator Spooner.

And then Tillman hurled back his an- "The state of South Carolina." Everybody realized that this was a reiteration of Tillman's repeated charges against his colleague, McLau-jrin. The latter was not in the chamber at the time, but somebodygent for him, jand in a few minutes he-ppteared upon the floor, and dropped into a seat in I the same row and only a short distance from his colleague, who still oc-j cupied the floor In reading from letters charging American soldiers In the Phil-; ippines with cruelties and outrages against the natives. It soon became generally known that McLaurin had determined to reply, and when Tillman shortly afterwards concluded and took his seat, the Senate settled itself to 'hear something startling, though what actually occurred for exceeded their expectations. McLaurin rose, saying that he did so to a question of personal privilege. I He explained that he had been inform-jed of what his colleague had said, and, referring to a transcript of the latter's remarks which he held In his hand, he repeated their substance, while Senate land galleries alike listerned in breath less Then McLaurin, after stating that he would not use such strong language as he should use had I he not previously denied this insinuation, turned towards Tillman and said: "I brand those statements as a willful, deliberate and malicious lie!" These sensational words were hardly (uttered when Tillman leaped to his feet, sprang past Senator Teller of Col-iorado, who occupied one of the three 'seats between the two men, and threw jhimself upon Senator McLaurin.

Other senators and the assist -'ant sergeant-at-arms Jumped forward to separate the two combatants, but were too late to prevent a blow from 'Tillman landing upon MaLaurln's fore-! head, the effect of which was In a mo-I ment evident in a red bruise, though no blood was drawn.

ARTHUR M. FIELD COMPANY Leading Jeweler. Car. Chorch St. and Patton Avenue Death of Mrs.

Carmichael Many in Asheville are saddened by the death of Mrs. Whitfield C. Carmichael, which occurred at her home on South Main street at 10 o'clock Saturday evening. She was the daughter of Leicester and Sarah Chapman, and was born at Leicester, her father's home, in this county, December 30, 1856. Her life was thereforef rom the beginning spent among Asheville people, and hers was one of those ftrong and sweet personalities which are always powers for good.

Kspentially womanly, her first i. jught was for those of her home clr-. ie. Always the devoted daughter and sister she became later the loving and cheering wife, the wise and tender mother, careful to provide for every need of those who so depended on her. Hut beautiful and faithful as she was in her home relations, they yet did not shut out from her the claims of the outside world.

The charities of Asheville owe much of their efficiency and thoroughness to the fact that she aided them in their beginnings, and gave to them throughout her life the benefit of her ever-widening experience and deepening thought. She was one of the charter members of the Flower Mission, the Mission Hospital and the Children's home and with the loyalty which characterized her she remained through the years a faithful worker in them all. At several times previously, and for the last five years continuously, president of the Flower Mission, she gave to its work of relief a conscientious care. Her loss is felt not only in the home, but in the church, in whose teachings she showed faith in her daily life: in the charitable organizations whose ohief worker she has been so long: and in the hearts of innuemarble friends. Telegrams announcing Mrs.

Carmich-ael's death have been sent to her brothers and sisters and the funeral arrangements will not be made until the arrivttl of those relatives who can come. S. F. Chapman of Asheville, Mre. Dan Atkins of Winston-Salem and Miss Hose Chapman, now in Sherman, sisters and brother of Mrs.

Sheriff Jordan. Deputy Weatherly and County Attorney Wilson have gone to Greene township to investigate the murder of Seymour Shoftner, a young white man. The murder was committed in a big row at the home of John Hubbard, a notorious negro character, Friday night, but was not reported to the sheriff till yesterday. The coroner went to the scene of the tragedy and held an Inquest, but could learn nothing definite as to the details of the homicide. Half a dozen eye witnesses to the murder were examined, but all were averse to giving testimony.

The sheriff will make an effort today to have some one swear out a warrant against the participants in the row. When the row occurred several white men and negroes were in Hubbard's house drinking whiskey. In the melee a son of Hubbard was shot through the breast and seriously injured. The scene of the tragedy is in a remote section of the county, some distance from railway and telegraphic communication. The community Is infested by a number of blockade distilleries and the people are averse to rendering the officers assistance in running down the guilty parties.
