MORSE, ARRESTED
ON WEDDING DAY
IS BROUGHT HERE
Detective Pratt in Capital
With Prisoner After Legal
Fight at Baltimore.
Dr. Frank B. Morse, arrested at the
marriage altar when he Rat. Just about
to wed In Raltimore two weeks ago,
was surrendered to the District Supreme
Court this morning and was committed
to Jail on a choree of false pretenses.
Detective Pratt brought Morse from
Baltimore aftir the waging of a legal
tattle with the Virginia authorities who
presented requisitions for Morse to the
BMtimcre courts. The Washington detective-
had anticipated such u move
ment, and balkt-d It with a peace bail,
which he had got from thi District Su
preme Court -here.
The sureties on Morse's bond, Joseph
I. O'Neill and William Zahrand, of Bal
timore, told the Baltimore court that if
the defendant were not turned over to
them, they would run the risk of having
the penalty of the bond, $1,000, forfeited.
The 'Baltimore court decided that the
peace bail had precedence over the
Virginia requisition, and ordered Morse
to be turned over to DetectlveSpratt and
the sureties.
Upon his arrfval In this Jurisdiction
Morse was taken before Chief Pustlce
laDaugh and surrendered to the court.
The marshal took charge of im and tent
him to the United States Jail to alait
the giving of bond, which it is said will
be obtained for him tomorrow.
Morse is under indictment by the
grand Jury.

TO CONTEST JUDGE
APPOINTED BY TAFT
J. D. Elliott, Once Before Re
jected, Named for South .
' Dakota.
There is somo uneasiness at the White
House todav over the likelihood of a
light against the confirmation of James
D. Elliott, nominated by the President
yesterday afternoon as United States
Judge for the district of South Dakota.
Intimation have reached the Presi
dent thatElliott has opponent still In
the united States .Senate, und that they
will not consent to his confirmation
without vigorous protest. The Presi
dent, it is said, knew this before he.
made the appointment.
A few years ajjo Elliott was nomi
nated as United States district attorney
for South Dakota. Senator Kttrldge
opposed his confirmation and it failed.
Tne charge against the appointee then
v,tx8 that ho was Involved In a land
deal which was not tii his credit.
8enator Klttridpe now is dead, it is
true, but Elliott still has vigorous
tnmles In South Dakota, who ate now
expected to come forward and make
their flzht. .
The President appointed two other
Judges yesterday. The more important
of these was that of William Sihoneld
as Judge of -the First circuit, embracing

Smith will succeed Judge William H.
Brawlcy, who ha retired or. account of
nge. The President earlv In his Admin
istration appointed a Democrat to a
Federal Judueship In North Carolina
SUMMER
RECESS
OPPOSED Y
HOUSE
Clark Demands That Senate
Act on Reciprocity and
Other Issues.
The House leaders propose to keep
th venerable Senate of the united
States here in Washington through the
hot months, sizzling and steaming and
stewing for the purpose of compelling it
to vote on reciprocity, the free list, and
other Important phases of the tariff
question.
TJie Senate Is not going to be allowed
to recess and get away from the hot
weather if the House knows Itself, not
by a Jugful. Speaker Clark has been
meditating on the Senate talk of taking
a recess through July, August, and Sep
tember, and he doesn't like it.
He says the Senate will have to stand
the hot weather aa best It can, but It
does not need to think the House Is
going to allow It to get out of Wash
ington without taking action on reci
procity, the various amendments of
fered thereto and some of the other big
things on the Democratic program.
The House Democrats have such com
plete control of the House situation that
this probably means they will be able
to force the Senate to stay here until
there have been tests on reciprocity,
the free list, one or two schedules, and
perhaps reapportionment and campaign
publicity. As neither house can ad
journ for more than three days with
out the consent of the other, the Sen
ate will probably be helpless.
As things stand now, the House Is
In much better shape than the Senate.
The House has nearly completed Its
work, and Its members can loaf around
and go to ball games while the Senate
hammers away at the tariff.
Sues for Divorce.
Divorce proceeding's against Luther J.
Daircett were filed In the District Su-
Ereme Court today by Maud A. Daggett
v Attompv T.nnarri A. Block. Com-

statehood resolution through the Sen
ate is anticipated, unless there arc)
unexpected changes In the rescluUon In
the Committee on Territories, "it Is
thought the resolution will be put
through without much trouble.
Senator Bailey will vote against the
resolution, but he' will not make the
fight which he threatened to make at
the outset when the recall proposition
In the" Arizona constitution first stirred
up feeling in the Senate. It was be
cause most of the Democrats voted for
the admission of Arizona with the recall
of the Judiciary .provision In the consti
tution that Senator Bailey, March i,
hastily resigned, and then recalled the
resignation.
