Later in the evening John Backman

him. the defendant shot the deceased. II
Is also stated by counsel that at the time
Of the shooting the defendant believed
his own life was in danger and shot for
TIE purpose of preserving his own life.

Postohics Bill.

Washington. March 23.-When the house
adjourned today some progress had been
made i'm the reading of the postoffice ap-
preparation bill for amendment. but only
six pages were disposed of. The appro-
priation for the railway mail service was
carefully sCTutiniZod. and in the case OF
inlaid mail transportation by star routes
the appropriation was scaled down from
S8,100.00Q 20 S1,S50,000. The question as TO
the length of time a postal car may be
used before it becomes unfit for service
was settled by the house when an
amendment by Mr. Tawuey (Minn) was
adopted providing that no part of the
appropriation shall be used for the rental
of cars which have been in service for
more than fifteen years. An uusuccess-
ful fight was made against the appropria-
tiOns for special mail facilities over trunk
lines south from Washington and west
from Kansas City.
