ment on tn executive departments in
tend to bri ny the matter of appropria-
tons direc thy into the hands of Con-
gress is that contained in the legisla-
tive appro priation acts which make it
necessary for each department to sub
nit all of its estimates for appropriav-
tons in the book of estimates sent to
Congress at the beginning of each ses-
sion.
The pro mpt turning into the Treasury
of all MONEYS collected by heads of de-
partmenta as government revenue is an
other sa feguard against extravaganza.
1t was found that during the past year
one department had collected revenue to
the amount of 100000 and disbursed it
without authority of law.
A strict accounting is hereafter to be
received frcm all United States court
clereks. A revelation that one such clerk
had received emoluments amounting to
1886 in one day brought about this pro-
vision.
Although there has been an effort to
prevent the enlargement of what is
known as the permanent annual appro-
priations.'' this character of expense has
increased during the session to the ex-
tent Oh nearly SoVVU,VuU, Illdhllls d tolui
permanent annual appropriation of more
than S14O0GlOO. AS it happened, the in
crease in this appropriation came in one
day in the House. The meat inspection
bill carried a permanent annual appro-
priation of 0GO and the same day the
House pas sed the bill adding $l00O.0OO to
4 like am cunt annually for the support
.of the state militia.
Organized labor has succeeded in its
requests Of the present session of Con-
gress to the extent of securing the enact
ment of what is known as the employ
. ers' liability bill" This enactment will
make it possible for an employe to secure
damages for his injury, Notwithstanding
his own negligence may have been in part
! responsible for that injury. Another bill
which has received the approval OF the
\ senate and will doubtless become a Law
S-before the end of the session is that linn
lifting the hours OF continuous service OF
railway trainment to IL consecutive
7 hours work, to be followed By 10 hours
rest The much agitated eight-hour day
!, bill received q favorable vote from the
labor committee of the House but too late
to secure action at the hands of Con-
gress. The ant-injunction bill was post
poned in committee until the next session
of Congress upon a direct vote on that
proposition.

The PRESIDENT
Will Make Personal In
speciiOn Of Canal.
Plans to Make Trip Either in
October or November.
Also Plans a Trip Through Middle West
eTn States Next Spring.

Washington. June 2i-Prcsidcnt
Roosevelt will visit the ISthmuS Of
Panama to make personal invcstiga-
ton of the work of the construction OF
the Panama canal This encouragement
was made at the White House late Sat
urday afternoon by Secretary Loeb af-
ter conference with the President. 1t
is encctcd the President vii! leave
Washington for Panama the latter rart
of next October, or III the early days Of
November. He will be absent about
three weeks.
None of the details of the trip have
vet been worked out. 1t is likely the
President will be accompanied on the
journey by Secretary Taft and Chair
man ShontS Of the Panama Canal Com
mission. but even this has not been de-
terniEed definitely.
The President long has desired per-
sonally to inspect the route of the ca
nal and to make himself personally "a
miliar with the great undertaking Of
constructing the waterway. 1t is the
expectation the President will be able
to spend at least a week on the canal
zone.
n personal Visit TO the canal zone will
enable him to handle with an absolute
knowledge of the situation the great
problems which constantly Will he arts
ing in connection with the work Of canal
construction and administration.
In connection with tire above announce
ment the President had decided not to
visit San Francisco next autumn to par
ticipate in the ceremonies incident to the
laying o. the corner stone OF .h4 NJ
federal building.
While the President. it can be said. de-
sires to do anything that he properly car
to promote the reconstruction of the city,
so nearly destroyed by earthquake and
|ccnfagration, he cannot make tho trip to
Panama and that to San Francisco to, as
the two trips necessarily would fall about
the same time.
Fer several weeks the President has
been considering the matter of making
a trip next spring through the middle
Eest. touching points in Ohio. Indiana.
Michigan. Illinois. Missouri. Oklahoma
and perhaps ether states.

of the votes of all Massachusetts, men,

urday passed the pure food bill by a
vote of 240 to l..
Mr.. Kcliher was one Of the II dis

he only voted present" because he

of Virginia.
Many amendments. important and
unimport ant, We're offered, but most of
them failed. one of the most impor-
tant passed. 1t was that of Represen-
tative Sherman Of New York, provid-
ing that canned food products need
not be labeled with the quantity or
weight contained in the cans. but that
if 50 m arked the mark must be accu-
rate.
There was an interesting debate before
the bill passed. The subject of labelling
whisky came in for a good deal OF at
tention, Representatives Shirley of Ken
lucky and others Directing to a no
vision to that effect in the bill. Repre-
sentative Stanley of Kentucky gave 4
practical lllustra ton of the adultcration
Of whisky. He took a quantity of alco-
hol in a large class vessel, added . lit
tic swcetenmE and colorng matter, and
then poured in u few drops Of real bour-

He deficd and judge Of whisky in tho

Canoeists Lose Lives in
Vermont Lake.
No One Saw the Fatal Acct
dent or Knows Its Cause.
Ia 10 Laie Hour Bodies Had Not Been
Recovered By Searchers.

Newnort. VT, June 24-Through the
overturning of a canoe in which they
were enjoying an outing on Lake
nfenonhramagog late today four young
,,araons were drowned. The victims
were:
Fred s. Paquin, aged % years.
Cora Paauin, wife OF Fred.
Ethel Paquin, sister of Fred.
George Daily.
The young men were clerks employ
cd in stores in Newport and were far
w well accustomed to handling a canoe.
Although the canoe was in plain view
of the shore and OF occupants of other
boats most of the time, no one SEEM
cd to have actually witnessed the over
turning of the craft, and the exact
cause will probably remain mystery.
When last seen the canoe was be-
tween Horseneck Island and Lindsay
Reach. and was going swiftly through
the water, driven by the strokes Oh the
two men, who were padding. Inc
Young women were seated in the CEN
Ter of the craft on the cushioned Hoor'
while the men were on the cross braces
at either end 1t was only few min
utes later that the canoe was discover
ed overturned close to Horseneck IS
land. 1t is supposed that an unguarded
movement of one Of the occupants
caused the sudden overturning of the
canoe and that no one of the party was
able to swim.
Late tonight none Of the bodies had
been recovered. though volunteer
searchers in launches and rowboats
began looking for them as soon as the
tragedy was reported. Even after
darkness came on the search was kept
I'D by the use of lanterns.
