A motion was presented to send replies to

Expecting Flood, Bakers

Goods From Cellars.
Danger of Inundation if
Weather Does Not
Remain Cool.
Special Dispatch to The Cali.

BAKERSFIELD, May 2S.-At daylight
this morning the Kern River at Kernville
was rising and it rose steadily until IL
O'Clock. At that time it had not ap-
preached the high water mark of Friday
last. The food reached the danger point
here on Saturday night at II o'clock. 1t
is expected that there will be fairly high
water Tuesday, but the mark reached ON
Saturday night is not likely to be again
attained Unless the weather should sud-
denly turn warmer and melt the new
snow. Still there is some alarm, and all
day merchants have been moving goods
from cellars.
That the effect of the rain of Sunday
is not to be manifested by volume of
water that would flood Bakersfield and
vicinity is due to the fact that the tenn
perature lowered in the mountains and
for several hours heavy snow instead of
rain fell. At Buena Vista large force
of men started today to construct rail-
road two and half miles in length from
Sunset across the 1evee for the purpose of
filing in gravel to strengthen the levee.
The Santa Fe is in charge Of the work.

Question of Supplies

Speech.
Plea Made for Purchases
in Cheapest Market
Available.

WASHINGTON, May 2S.-The joint res
olution authorizing the purchase of arti-
cles for the Panama Canal from United
States producers. unless the prices are ex-
tortionate and unreasonable. In the
opinion of the President, was called up in
the Senate today by Senator Hale. Sena-
tor Rayner spoke In opposition to the
resolution on behalf of the Maryland Steel
Company. which wants to furnish two
steel dredges on which Secretary Taft
proposes to save money by buying in
Scotland Senator Rayner, while oppos-
ing this measure. reiterated his belief In
the Democratic principle of buying in the
cheapest market anywhere In the world.
In this article, said Rayner. lit is
said that five hundred million dollars will
be expended in the construction of the
canal and its equipment The effect OF
this resolution will be that perhaps two
hundred million dollars will be wrung as
a tribute from the people to increase the
profits of our protected Industries. This
resolution closes to the Government OF
the United States every market in the
world except the home market. in connec-
ton with these enormous expenditures.
I'VE do not know how the President
stands in regard to this matter. 1t has
been claimed all along that he was In
favor of purchasing the material and
equipment for the canal. other things be-
ing equal. in the market where they could
be purchased the cheapest. 1t is earn
est1y hoped that he has not changed hts
mind in reference to this matter.
The bond between the protected bene-
ficiaries and the Treasury of the United
States should long since have expired by
limitation. This is reenwal in a new
form of this unf1oiy combination. 1t is in
the interest of the American Protective
Tariff League, which, notwithstanding the
a fffn n
represents every monopoly upon the
American continent that is plundering the
homes of the American people
Senator Morgan discussed laws put in
force by the President for the govern
ment of the canal zone, which he de-
clared to be an abuse of power. No menu
ber of Congress would dare to introduce
instance the provision permitting the Gov
ernor to Danish undesirable persons. This
law. he said was absolutely necessary to
good government and the canal zone
could not be controlled without it. Yet.
he said, the President had exceeded his
authority. He said that two years expert
ence had developed the fact that the
canal can never be built under existing
laws. The affairs of the zone. he said
had been placed in the hands of men who
have no boundaries of power.
Senator Morgan offered an amendment
making the canal zone a military reser-
vation and providing that all of the in
come of the zone should be set apart
for the benefit of the zone, to be admin
istered for that purpose without having tC
be converted into the treasury of the
United States. This amendment provided
for the payment of duty of 10 per cent
ad valorem on all goods imported to the
canal zone from territory not controlled
by the United States. The resolution went
over till tomorrow.

ST. PETERSBURG. May 2S-There was
no direct echo at today's session of the
lower house of Parliament of the decisive
struggle which opened last Saturday, but,
in expectation of sensational sequel a
crowd of considerable size gathered out

much excitement in the corridors before
the House met. An officer identified as a
colonel on the general staff created a
stir by openly declaring in. the presence
of a score of peasant members that the
time had come when the army should

which represented the will of the people.

CABINET QUITS
POST IN ANGER

VIENNA, May 2S.-Prenier Prince Con-
rad Won Hohenlohe- he-Schiilihgsfuerst and
Cabinet have resigned because of dissat-
isfaction with the proposals for the set
tlement of the common customs tariff OF
Austria Hungary.
The Prince says that yesterdays an
nouncement from the Hungarian side to
the effect that an agreement had been
reached was unfounded.
Count Won Gondenhove, Governor of
Bohemia, has been summoned to Vienna,
1t is regarded as probable that he will
be charged with the formation of q new
ministry.
ell the Emperor received DR.. Wekerle In
private audience and authorized him to
announce to the Hungarian Parliament his
Majesty's consent to the common tariff
boing hencefortll called the autonomous
Hungarian tariff. When Prince Won Ho-
henlohe- e-Schillingfuerst learned of the
concession he summoned his Ministers
and they all decided to resign
BUDAPEST, May 2S.-The Emperor
King has empowered the Hungarian
Government to present the common GUS
toms tariff before the Hungarian Parlia-
ment as an autonomous Hungarian tariff.
It is identically the same tariff under a
new name, and is presented to Parlia-
ment In order to satisfy Hungary, which
maintains that she has the right to an
Independent customs area. The Austrian
Government bitterly opposed the conces-
sion, demanding that the tariff should
come into force as a general customs
tariff for both countries.
