McLaurin attacks Tillman in South Carolina Senate clash
In a heated address, Senator John L. McLaurin denounces Senator Tillman as a bully and accuses him of labeling Democrats as traitors over tariff and imperialism. He cites voting records, defends subsidies and territorial policy, and urges unity against partisan manipulation. A separate note reports $340,000 in gold stolen via tunneling at Selby smelting works in Valero, California.
