smoke and Chief Butler sent I'm a second

When the blaze ran down the mule IL
started the sprinklers and the water from

AUTOMOBILE HIRE
MAY CAUSE SCANDAL
ITEM AMOUNTS TO MORE THAN
ALL MACHINES IN SAN FRAN.
CISCO ARE WoRTH-AcTIoN OF
COMMITTEE NOT DETERMINED.

San Francisco, May 22-The extortion-
ate charges for automobile hire during
the first two weeks following the fire is
likely to develop into a scandal of huge
proportions before the finance committee
finishes auditing the accounts. In n tabu-
lated statement filed with the committee
on Saturday there appears charge of
$l57599 for automobile service 1t Is a
well known fact that there are not more
than 1000 machines in San Francisco and
that all of them could be bought outright
for sum not in excess of the amount
charged for the hire of probably half
the number.
Only 129 claims were presented to cover
this sum. The average rental a day was
$35, but in many instances the charge
was even higher What the committee
will do with this item Is still undeter
mined. In the same table is a statement
for milk. butter, eggs. bread, vegetables,
drugs. hay, grain and clothing. The total
cost for these necessaries does not equal
the cost of the hire of automobiles Some
of the garages have relieved the commit
tee from embarrassment by generously
donating the amount of the demand to the
relief fund.

SENATOR LODGE
INTRODUCES BILL
Provides for Readjustment of the Ra-
tito of the Philippine Coinage
System.

Washington, May Ex-senator Lodge to-
Secretary Taft for readjustment of the
ratio of the Philippine coinage and for
an increase in the elasticity of the pres
ent system.
The bill is framed upon the recommen-
dation of the Philippine commissioners
in their annual report. and In brief au-
thorizes the commission with the consent
of the president to change the weight and
fineness of the silver peso and to re-
coin the existing pesos to make them
correspond with the change. 1t appears
that there is a pressing necessity for this
change in order to prevent the exporta-
ton of the peso from the archipelago, and
also to save the governmnet from loss.
A condition predicted by the commits
sioners mas come to pass, and the silver
than the coinage value. Another impor-
tant feature of the bill is an authoriza-
ton of the use of American gold coin as
a basis for the paper peso.
1t is apparent that the ten million paper
pesrs in circulation will soon amount to
double that sum, and the government will
be obliged to build new vaults for the
storage cf silver bullion and to pay high
prices for the bullion unless permitted to
substitute gold to the extent of not to
exceed 60 per cent of the paper issued
Provision is also made for the deposit
of this gold reserve in the United States
at good interest.

BILL is REPORTED.
Agricultural Appropriation Recon-
mended to Senate.

Washington. May 22-The agricultural
appropriation bill was reported to the
Senate today 1t carries S,7l5oo0, an in
crease of s223.5G0 over the amount carried
by the bill as 1t passed the house. Items
of increase include s5l.soo for the bureau
of animal Industry. s5162o for the bureau
of plant industry, and s32, 400 for expert
ment stations: $1,000 additional for pub
lie roads and $4,000 additional to extermi-
nate the gypsy moth
Regarding free seeds, the report says:
"A decided majority of the committee
expressed themselves informally op-
posed to the distribution of common seeds
as authorized by law for many years. but
deemed 1t inadvisable at this session to
recommend a change, believing that such
could not now secure the desired result
but trust at the next session a liberal
appropriation for the distribution OF rare
and valuable seeds may take the place OF
the present very Objectionable system"

who are under Indictment for alleged con-

The afternoon session was taken up

of a Jury and the reading of the indict-
ment.
Taggarts attorneys presented certifi-
cate from a reputable New York physi-
clan stating that he was sufferer from
chronic heart trouble and that he would
he placed in great danger were he to
travel to Kansas City now. Some time
was occupied in the discussion of the
propriety of trying Taggart in his alb
sence on a charge for which the law pro-
vides punishment by Imprisonment, but
finally both sides agreed that the record
might show Tagart to be present in the
person of his attorneys.
After the opening speeches by attorneys
for the government and for the accused.
court adjourned until 10 O'Clock tomor-
row.

TO RAISE POST.
Diplomatic Post at ConstantinopIe
May Be Made an Embassy.

Washington, May Ex-senator Knox TO-
day gave notice of an amendment to the
diplomatic and consular appropriation
bill to raise the diplomatic post at Con-
stantlnople from legation to an en-
bassy. The method proposed differs from
the usual custom. Under existing laws
the President is authorized to raise a
legation to an embassy when the request
comes from a foreign power. but of course
this does not prevent Congress from TAX
ing action without such a request.
Turkey has an accredited minister to
the United States, who has been here
three years without having presented his
credentials. and therefore he has no
standing. Under the regulations of the
sublime Porte ambassadors are the only
diplomatic representatives permitted to
seek an audience with the Sultan, and
therefore the United States has been
handicapped in its negotiations with Tur-
key. 1t is to correct this that Senator
Knox has proposed his amendment.

Government Authority Says It
Will be Announced May q
SCOPE IS NOT DETERMINED
Constitutional Democratic Party is
Prepared, Though Grudgngly, to
Accept Act of Grace That
Is Offered.

ST. Petersburg, May 22.-The long
awaited political amnesty will the Asso-
c!ated Press learns from a government
source, be proclaimed May % the ami
versary of the coronation of Emperor
Nicholas H. The exact scope of the
measure has not as yet been determined.
L will, as anticipated. be limited. but the
Associated Press is in a position to state
that the constitutional democratic party
is prepared, though grudgngly. to accept
the act of grace from which terrorlsts are
excluded. recognizing. though not pub
licly. that the government is not alto
gethcr unjustified in refusing to set at
large men who will be as ready in the
future as they have been in the past to
shoot down or blow to pieces hated repre-
sentatives of authority.
Their demand for unlimited amnesty
was based on the expectation that. with
the institution of a full constitutional era
the terrorists, as was promised In an
open letter just before the assassination
OF Alexander H., would abandon active
operations, but they have been forced to
admit that the crimes Of the last few days
give the government no guarantee that
the promise will be kept. The admlnistra-
ton is daily cutting down the number
of prisoners who may be affected by the
amnesty, releasing convicts by hundreds
in the provinces. while among those re-
leased in st. Petersburg are twenty-seven
members of the court of workmen's dele
gates who drew up the famous manifesto
preaching raid on the governments gold
reserve.
Premier Goremytin has been summoned

gences prevent. In the lower house of

INJUNCTION is
REFUSED BY COURT
Cumberland Presbyterians May Form
Union With Presbyterians.
May Appeal Case.

Decatur, ILL.,, May 22-The legal con-
test instituted to prevent the union of
the Cumberland Presbyterian church with
the Presbyterian church has been de-
cided in favor of the unionists. Judge
Johnstone made public decision in which
he refused to grant the injunction prayed
for by the anti-unlonists, and dismissed
the bill on demurrer. written opinion
will be handed down tomorrow.
decision was not unexpected by the
leaders of the anti-unionsts. Their at
torneys announced that they will appeal
the case, probably to the supreme court
of Illinois.
At the afternoon session of the assem-
bly, the recommendation that the Indian
ola synod be dissolved was withdrawn be-
cause of a strong sentiment that the
measure was too drastic. The commit
tee on theological seminary recommended
that that institution offer correspondence
courses. The assembly held a service in
memory of deceased members.
