CONGRESSMAN LESTER
FALLS TkRO' SKYL|GHT
He Was on Roof of Apartment
House at Washington.
NO HOPE FOR HIS RECOVERY
One Leg Crushed, Shoulder Fractured
and Also Internal iniurics-Mr. Les
ter Has Represented Savannah Since
Beginning of 51st Congress.

Washington, June 16.-Crashing
through a skylight in the cupola Is it.
above the roof of the 13-story Cairo
apartment house, on Q street, about
$3.50 o'clock Friday night, Colonel R.
Z. Lester, national representative
from Savannah, Ga, was so badly in
Jured that he will probably not recov-
er from injuries.
In a shower of breaking glass his
body fell 30 feet to the twelfth floor,
and his right leg was mangled, while
his left leg and left shoulder were
fractured, and his head and body were
cut and bruised.
After climbing ladder and squeez-
ing his body through a hole barely
large enough to admit a man, he then
craWled out upon the frail glass work
in the darkness and it gave way under
his weight.
Mrs. E. K. Moore, who resides on
the twelfth floor, had just left the
elevator and was passing the iron
steps when the body fell at her feet.
She ran into her room and telephoned
for her husband, who ran to the as
sistance Of Colonel Lester, and he was
removed to his apartments on the
third floor.
The strange accident has not been
explained on account of the precari.
GUS condition of the victim although
1t is believed by his relatives that he
was searching for his two little grand
children, Lester and Martha Randolph,
and believed they were hiding from
him in the garrett
Friday after dinner he was in his
usual jovial spirit, chatting with the
guests of the apartments, where he
had lived for more than eleven years
during his seasons in Washington.
His condition Saturday morning was
very critical. He had Iapsed into un-
consciousness and it is stated that the
chances are very much against his re-
cOvery.
Some encouragement was given by
a slight rally during the forenoon, but
a relapse caused a serious turn for the
worse. When aid reached Mr.. Lester
after the accident, his condition was
such that he could not be removed,
and it was not until morning that he
could be carried to his apartments.

Lower Gas Rate for Macon.

Macon, Ca, June 16.-The president
of the Macon Gas Light End Water
company announces that the company
has decided to reduce Macon's gas
rate from $3.50 per thousand to $1.35,
giving a 10 per cent reduction from
the $1.35 for all who pay their gas
bills before a certain date each month.
The Macon News declares that the re-
duction is not sufficient, and that the
conscience of the gas company should
not be so easily satisfied. It insists
on a greater reduction, inasmuch as
city council has refused to permit a
competing company to do business in
Macon.

LOCK TYPE CANAL
FOR THE ISTHMUS
House Votes In Favor of the
Lock Type.
HOUSE VOTE STOOD 11o TO "a
Amendment to This Effect Was Pre-
sented by representative Littauer, OF
New York-5urton, of Ohio, Pre-
sented His Views on Lock Level.

Washington, June 16.-In committee
of the whole Friday the house, by a
vote of 110 to "a, voted in favor of 9
lock canal across the isthmus of Pan
anna, the amendment to this effect
being presented by Representative Lit
tauer, of New York.
With members of congress sitting on
the short steps in the aisles of the
house, around the space in front Of
the sepaker's desk, with a large men,
bership of the lower branch of con-
gress, with the galleries filled and with
Mr. Burton, of Ohio, pointer in hand.
indicating by charts the difference be.
tween sea level and lock canal, the
house presented every appearance of
the class room of a great university.
Mr.. Burton gave notice that when
the item in the sundry civil bill was
reached apprOpriating upward of $685.
100000 he would ask for an hour in
which to present his views on the lock
level type of Panama canal.
He prefaced his remarks by stating
that in the so-called Spooner law,
authorizing the expenditure of $135,-
100000 for the Panama canal, and
giving the president the right to in
augurate this movement and carry it
to a successful conclusion, the type
was left with the president with GER
tain specifications and limitations.
He said that lately there had been
a strong agitation for a sea level
canal and he believed that the time
had come when the question of type
should be settled and the matter re-
moved from the domain of controver-
sy. Continuing, he said:
1T is not fair to the president and
to the executive officers of the gov
ernment who have this great enter
prise in charge to say to them, Pro
ceed with the canal with all the speed
you may and with another breath to
say that we have not yet made up our
minds what kind of a canal you shall
build 1t is unjust to the subOrdi-
mates who have gone to the isthmus
to give their best years of their lives
and their best efforts, to hamper and
embarrass them by falling to decide
this question"
In reply to a question by Mr.. Will
liams, of Mississippi, Mr.. Burton said
that the necessary implication of the
Spooner act was that a lock canal was
intended.
Taking up his position in front of
the maps, he called attention to the
vital difference between the two types
and remarked that when the topogra-
ply is considered, it would be the
very strongest argument for the lock
level canal.
He said thirty-four of the ablest en-
gineers of the world were for the lock
level type and he believed this judg-
ment should be accepted.
Mr.. Bartlett, of Georgia, made a
point against the amendment of Mr..
Littauer. He insisted that the amend
ment was clearly new legislation and
argued the question from that pre-
mise.
The chair, Mr.. Watson, of Indiana,
held the amendment was in order and
cries of vote, VOTE" were heard. With
out further discussion the Littauer
amendment was adopted.

The bourse Gazette prints dispatch

stopping the butchery of Jews at Bi-

The Jews who escaped from Bialy-
