FROM AMBUSH
Attempt to Assassinate
Telegrapher.

Tamaqua, Pa, March 28.-While
seated at his desk at Millers station
early today Operator S. E. Wittinger
was fired upon from ambush. Two
shots were fired but both went wide
of their mark. This is the second at
tempt made to assassinate Philadel-
phia and Reading telegraphers in a
week, the other attempt having been
at Girardville near here.
So soon as the shots were fred,
Wittinger grabbed his revolver went
to the door and made careful sur
vey OF the surroundings but could see
no one. Investigation by Philadel-
phia & Reading officers today showed
that shots were fired in close proxim-
ity to the office and that both shots
struck the woodwork few inches
above Wittinger's head. Chief Christ
man and several other Philadelphia
and Reading coal and iron officers to-
day went to work on the case.

MAY BREAK INTO CUBA

Mobile, Ala, March 2S.-Word was
received here today and is receiving
good credence to the effect that for
mer Governor Levi p. Morton of New
York; r. A. c. Smith, Sir William Van
Horne, of Canada, and attorneys repre-
senting j. ]. Hill and John d. Rookie
feller are in Havana, pressing Presi-
dent Palma to permit the Northern Sc
curities company to be domiciliated in
Cuba. This is declared to be an at
tempt ON the part of the Norehern Sc
curities officials to evade in some way,
the recent decision of the supreme
court OF the United States. 1t is un-
derstood from the information receiv-
ed in this city that the matter is to
come up before the Cuban congress
which convenes on April A next.

ACTRESS KILLED
BY Automobile Scorcher
in New York.

New York, March 2S.-Speeding
through Central park this morning,
the driver of an automobile went SO
fast he almost upset his machine in
turning to avoid collision with an auto
going in the opposite direction. In
the quick turn his friends were thrown
to the roadway and a handsome young
amateur actress received injuries
from which she died tonight. Anoth-
er friend suffered broken collar
bone.
The young woman who was killed
was Florence G. Mas, who lived in
the Hotel Endicott. The other victim
is Solomon Streek, of West Eighthy
Sixth, who is nursing broken collar
bone. Jerome Yaeger, civil engi-
neer and a man of means, living in
1898 Madison avenue, was in charge
of the automobile at the time His
driver was with him, but Mr. Yaeger,
who prides himself on being an ex.
pert, had taken the lever.
Yaeger was arrested after the ac-
cident but later released on bail.
Soon after the death of the young
woman Coroner Goldencranz arrived
at the Hotel Endicott and viewed the
body. An inquest will be held.

evening "Gyp, The Heiress," Jand
"Borderland," two of the best plays
ever presented at this place, were given
in a manner to bring commentator

bued with the parts they portrayed, and
showed that they possessed more than
ordinary abilities as a dramatic club

rived from such occasions, are more
than we usually give credit. 1t GER,

CONGRESS AND WAR
DEPARTMENT ARE
At ODDS
Over Establishment of
Military Camps
VIEWS ARE Divergent

Washington, d. c.. March 2S.-Con-
gress and the war department are at
odds. The difference has arisen over
the establishment of military camps.
1t threatens to become serious.
Congress, by both OF its committees
On military affairs has favorably re-
ported a bill selecting the following
sites:
In the vicinity of Fort Sam Houston,
Texas, not less than $4,000 nor more
than 25. 900 acres.
In the vicinity of Camp Douglass,
Wis, containing 10000 acres, more or
less.
In the Conewago valley, in the coum-
ties Of Lebanon, Dauphin and Lancas-
ter, Pa, containing $4,000 acres, more
or less.
On the ]. n. Henry property, San
Luis, Obispo county, Cal, containing
$4,000 acres, more or less.
Major General Chaffee chief of staff,
declared that with the exception of the
enlargement of Chickamauga Park, the
selection of sites should be left to the
war department He declares that the
Wisconsin and Texas sites are not sat-
isfactory, being too far removed from
the location of large portions of the
National Guard. He asks congress to
appropriate for sites but to leave the Sc
lection of them to a special board Of
investigation.
Secretary Of War Taft endorses this
view A joint committee of senate
and house waited upon the secretary
and chief of staff today. The conclu-
sion pointed to a determination that
there would be no receding on the part
of either interest This may kill the
military camp site project for this ses-
sion.

GIVEN AWAY BY SHIRT

New York, March 2s.--Miss Eleanor
X. Anderson today obtained verdict

PANAMA CANAL
AND RECOGNITION OF RE-
PUBLIC OF PANAMA
RIGHT TO Be TESTED
Suit Started in the Su-
prene Court.

Washington, d. c., March 2S.-The
constitutionality Of the action Of the
president in recognizing the independ-
ence of the republic of Panama and
the validity of the act Of congress,
providing for the construction of the
Panama canal connecting the waters
of the Atlantic and Pacific oceans,
passed June 2S, 1902, is to be tested
in the district supreme court.
w. b. Wilson, an attorney of 1G0
Washington street, Chicago, has filed
bill in equity on behalf of himself
and others, not named, asking that
the secretary of the treasury be en-.
joined from paying to the republic OF
Panama s1O,000,000 in consideration
of interests surrendered to the Unit
ed States, to restrain him from paying
$40,000,000 to the new Panama Canal
company of France on account of its
interest any money on account of the
construction of the canal by the Unit
ed States government.
He declares that there is no appro
priation by law for canal expenditures;
that the canal act is unconstitutional;
furthermore, that its terms have not
been complied with. The suit is
largely based upon the fact that the
canal act specifies that s10,000,000 is
to be paid to the Colombian govern
ment for the sovereignty, etc, of the
canal zone. Since its passage the rev.
olution on the isthmus gave the rights
Colombia held to the Panama repub
lie. The administration contended
that as the act was primarily intend
ed to provide for the acquisition of the
canal property and the construction
of the canal the government from
which 1t was to be purchased was of
secondary consideration. Hence it
maintains that no additional legisla-
tion is necessary TO enable the govern
ment to proceed with its obligations.
Democratic leaders in the senate con.
tended otherwise.
