ATTEMPT MADE TO
KILL POLLY PRY

Denver. Jan. 11.-An effort was made
last night by some unknown assailant
to assassinate Mrs. Lionel Ross An
thony. better known as Polly Pry,"
editor of the Polly Pry magazine, and
a well-known writer at her home. 13l
West Colfax avenue. As she opened the
door OF her home shortly after y
o'clock last night in answer to ring
at the door bell two shots were fired at
her. neither of which took effect. The
hall was dark and Mrs. Anthony wore q
black dress. To these facts Mrs An
thony probably owes her life. After the
shooting the assailant made his escape
in the darkness. r- -...
In the opinion of Mrs. Anthony, the
shots We're fired at her by some IA
matte who had been excited to a muir
derous degree by the attitude she has
taken on the labor situation in Colorado
in the publication of which she is the
proprietor. Several friends were in the
house at the time and rushed to the
front door when the shooting took
place. but were unable to catch a
glimpse of the assailant whom Mrs.
Anthony described as very large man
wearing derby hat This was the
only description she could give.

EVENTS IN WASHINGTON AND

Would Protect Philippines.

A report sumbitted by the Joint
army and naval board OF which Ad-
miral Dewey is the senior member.
relative to Notifications for the Philip
pines. transmitted to the House by
Secretaries Root and Moody, says:
THE policy OF Congress may be as
sumed to be to hold the Philippines
an American possession as against any
foreign enemy, but although the islands
have been in our possession now more
than five years, not gun has been
mounted nor an earthwork raised to
protect any of our harbors."
The board, 1t is stated. is unanimous
ly of the opinion:
That without fortified naval base
in the Philippines the Asiatic fleet can
not keep open the lines OF communities
tion for supplies from the United
States or between the army posts
within the Philippines, without which
supplies the military forces of the
United States could not hold command
of the islands.
THAT Manila is not, but that Subig
bay is, suited for a naval station. and
OF all harbors in the archipelago it is
the best for the purpose.
That the fortification of Subig bay
is essential to the security for naval
station located there.
That fortified naval base on Su-
big bay will contribute materially 10
the defense of Manila bay"
