DOCS FAIL TO
TRACK MURDERER
SAN FRANCISCO POLICE STILL
MYSTIFIED
Victims Remains Not Yet Identified
but Boys Discover Human
Head, Legs and Arms
Tied In Sack
BY Associated Press

BY Associated Pres.
SAN FRANCISCO April 6.-The
mystery of the dismembered human
trunk found at a late hour last night
has not yet been solved, although the
greater part of the detective force has
been assiduously at work for the past
twenty-four hours on the case.
The finding of a human head, legs
and arms tied in sack, this afternoon
gave further material for identification
of the remains. Some boys playing at
the edge of the bay not far from the
scene of the crime made the grewsome
discovery, and the police at once took
possession of the human remnants.
The head is that of man about
90 years of age and Is of Italian ma
tionalty. A large number of people
from the Italian colony visited the
morgue tonight but none could furnish
a clew to the identity of the deceas sed.
For the first time in this city blood
hounds were used in an effort to track
a murderer, but the intelligent animals,
aside from bringing to light some over
looked bloodstains, were of little SER
vice.
In the head found today were two
long gashes in the scalp and one Of
the eyes was closed from the force of
blow. The autopsy showed that the
throat contained food, demonstrating
that the man had been cut down while
at supper.
The police still believe that the man
killed was Rosario Domino, witness
in the Brogardo murder case.
In searching through the coat tonight
the police found that the label COLI
tanned the name Denver"

PANAMA EMERGENCY BILL WILL PASS
President's Message Win Re Read Tomorrow-speaker of House VIII No Doubt Be Joseph Cam
 non, Reelected.

WASHINGTON, Dec. 1.-The frsH session of the Fifty-ninth congress opened today with the usual ceremo- nles.
 This is the first congress to meet since President Roosevelt was elected on a platform framed clearly upon his own responsibility to his party and the country.
 Preliminary work, 1t is said. will engross the attention of the senate the first week of the session. The senate is already organized. but Senators Brandagee of Connecticut, Warner of Missouri, Frazier of Tennessee and La Toilette of Wisconsin have not yet taken the oath.
 Today's session was a very short one. as the senate adjourned out of re- spect for the late Senator Platt of Con. nectieut as soon as the necessary for malIties for the beginning of a new congress had been concluded. Tomor- row the presidents message will be re- ceived and read. and Wednesday is likely to be devoted to the introduction of bills. A short session will be held Thursday. and the senate will then ad- journ until the following Monday.
 If the house of representatives should pass an emergency appropriation bill for the Panama canal the senate will at once take it up and pass it. but this measure Is not expected in the senate until the second week of the session
 Very little besides the organization of the house of representatives will be accomplished the first week of the ses- sion. although 1t Is possible that the emergency appropriation for the Pana- ma canal may be passed the last Of fhis week. Until the committees are ap- pointed such a bill would have to be considered by Unanimous consent or under a special order. II will depend upon the needs Of the canal finances whether the emergency appropriation will be rushed through this week or go over until the week following The leaders of the house have been inform ed that the emeree1cy appropriation will Hot be needei until Dec IS. and consequently the bfil may not be psss- ed until next week
