JEFFERSON CITY, Mo-, February 10
Today's joint session of the Missouri legis-
lature was the most interesting since the
beginning of the deadlock over the selec-
ton of United States senator. There was
a bolt from the Niedringhaus forces, but
it was not of sufficient strength to change
the relative standing of the candidates
Maples of Christian and viles of Stone
broke from the caucus ,nominee and cast
their ballots for the lieutenant governor,
John c. Mckinley, who ispresiding over the
joint sessions.
The lieutenant governor declared he was
not candidate f6FAthe s@hatorship and re-
ouested the boilers to return to the caucus
nominee in the interests of party regular
ity and fidelity. Both Naples and vfIes de-
Tended their votes. declaring that they be-
lieved they were carryingsput the wishes Of
their constituents

for Pettijohnl for several days, changed to

as the previous ballot, with the exception
of Whitaker. who changed from Finkeln-
burg to Mckinley, and the Waimsley vote
which went to State Senator Baumann Of
st. Louis.

Delay Regarding Construc-
ton of Rock Greek Bridge.
CONFERENCE TODAY
THE QUESTION OF TEMPORARY
PROVISION DISCUSSED.
Decision Of the q Street Problem Prob
ably Delayed Two or
Three Years.

The urgent appeal of citizens Of
Georgetown for a bridge across
Rock creek at Q STREET.-THE afford a
temporary connection between the
northern parts of Georgetown and
Washington will not be answered
favorably for at least two and half
or three years. This is the effect OF
the decision reached by the District
Commissioners at conference held
shortly after noon today.
At the board session held today the three
Commissioners considered all phases of the
question of providing temporary bridge
at Q street, including the propositions to
remove the old John w. Thompson and the
Woodley lane bridges from their present
sites to Q street.
The Commissioners after considering the
various propositions decided that 1t will
not be at all advisable to use the Thomp-
son bridge as the crossing of Rock creek
at Q street. The only suitable temporary
structure now owned by the District which
might be used at Q street, they agreed, Is
the Woodley lane bridge. This structure
however, will not be available until after
the Connecticut avenue bridge is ready for
use in July, 1907, and considerable time
would probably elapse before that bridge
could be removed and, regretted after it
is available. The Commissioners agreed
that they cannot at this session of Congress
secure an appropriation to provide bridge
at Q street.
Awaits Next Session.
In view of all the facts and circum-
stances connected with the question, the
Commissioners. upon motion of Mr.. Mactar-
land. decided to wait until the next session
of Congress before asking for any apprc-
rriation for bridge at Q street. They will
then ascertain whether or not there is any
prospect of securing an appropriation for
the construction of culvert along Rock
creek, and if the possibility is remote they
will then ask for an amount sufficient to
cover the expense of removing the WoOdley
Lane bridge after its use az its present 10
cation is not deemed necessary.
In the event Congress is disposed to au-
tkorize the construction of the Rock creek
tunnel the Commissioners will bend their
energies to securing an appropriation to-
ward completing section of that project.
The Commissioners are in favor of the
tunnel project and do not desire to agitate
any other proposition that might interfere
with their securing that project as soon as
possible. 1t is thought that if Congress at
the next session will authorize the con-
struction of the northern portion of the
tunnel that it can be completed almost as
street
From present indications the citizens of
Georgetown will be obliged to utilize the
old bridges at P, M and K streets as en-
frances to the western portion of the city
across Rock creek.

JACKSON'S CASE
YET A MYSTERY
Midshipman's Disappear
ance Is Not Explained.
LEFT SHIP A WEEK AGO
At the Expiration of Ten Days He
win Become Technically
Deserter.
LEFT SHIP A WEEK AGO

Midshipman r. Allan Jackson's dis
appearance from the battleship Missouri
at New York a week ago still remains
a mystery TO the Navy Department
1t is said there that at the expiration
Of ten days from the time when Mid
shipman Jackson left the ship he be
comes technically a deserter This Is
in spite of the fact that naval officers
do not believe he had the intention OF
deserting wnen he left the ship on shore
leave.
The law makes distinction between
those who leave with the manifest in
tention Of never coming back and those
who obviously do not intend TO depart
for good Until ten days expires the
leaving of the ship is regarded only
as stra ggling.
The law is open to considerable modi-
neation at the discretion of the com
manding officer who may determine the
intention of the deserter.
The records Of the Navy Department
show only one case of positive deser-
ton. This was in the case of MIdship-
man Arrowood OF the Kearsarge, who
left the ship because he said the navy
was no fl place for a Christian gentle
man.
