LOCK CANAL WILL Be

Presidents Idea Probably VIII
Find Endorsement in Thurs
= 49, days Vote.
BY w, w, Jermane,

Washington, June 16.-Infuential
members of the senate inform me today
that the senate, when it votes on the
type OF lsthmian canal, next Thursday,
will, almost beyond a doubt, decide in
favor Of the lock system. Had this
vote been taken three weeks ago it is
said the sea level proposition would
have won by wide margin, but the
discussion since that time has convinced
the senate that the president is right.
The house has just put, into the
sundry civil bill, at the PRESIDENT 3
request, a section making appropria-
tions for canal work during the next
fiscal year, and deciding that the canal
shall be of the lock type This pro-
vision in the bill I am informed will
be accepted by the senate. First, how
ever, the senate on Thursday will vote
down the Kittridge sea level propo-
sition. My informant is senator who
has been keeping close track of the
senate IS sentiment on this question.
Cheaper and Quicker.
"The change of opinion in the sem
ate,' says this senator, "has been
brought about by several causes. In
the first place, we are now satisfied
that the sea level canal will cost several
hundred millions more than the lock
canal. We are about satisfied that IL
will be many more years in construe.
ton. A third reason for the change Of
front in the senate is the belief that
the highest possible grade Of lock canal
is better than low type Of sea level

Des Moines, Iowa, June 16.-With
the Scott county republican convention
at Davenport today, the governor: now
has total of 759 instructed delegates
to the state convention, against 356 for
Perkins and 90 for Rathbun.. There are
ITS uninstructed delegates, all anti
Cummins, some being for Rathbun, but
the most Of them, favoring Perkins. In
five counties, with ninetyfour dele
gates, there are contests, and the fight
over seating them in the state conven-
tion will be as bitter as the contests in
the eleven counties which are yet to
hold conventions. -. 3. -
Cummins now lacks only 62 votes of
enough to nominate him, and with ,ordi-
nary success he is expected to get more
than that number in the remaining
eleven counties, which are Cummins
territory. -sa 4r gi.&r4.'.~t H.. .5T ~ -.
The. fight in the last few weeks has
been the bitterest. known in the his
tory Of the party in Iowa and a gen
eral fear is expressed that it will end
in bitter riot in the state convention.
The indications are that contests will
be trumped up in every county yet
to hold conventions in order to throw
the balance of power into the hands
of the credentials committee, which is
likely to be controlled by the anti.
Cummins forces.

Washington, June l6.-Rufus Lester,
representative in congress from Georgia,
who was injured last night by fall
thru skylight at the Cairo apartment
house, while he was searching for his
grandchildren, died this evening.
Congressman Lester regained con-
seriousness today and for a. short time
his friends entertained some hope that
he might recover. It was found that
his right leg had been broken in sew
eral places, the ankle smashed and the
bone driven thru the bottom of his
heel. His right collar bone was broken,
as was also one of his arms and both
sides of his face were horribly cut and
bruised. He suffered great pain until
he lapsed into Inconsistencies, short
time before he died.
Mr.. Lester was the senior member of
Georgia delegation in the house. He
was serving his ninth term. He was
one of the nine men in the present
house who served in the confederate
army. His remains will be removed to
his late home in Savannah, but no
further arrangements have been made
for thes funeral. ~'|" - '. g.

London, June 16.-According to news
given out by a member of the royal
family, the Queen of Spain is in a
state Of complete nervous breakdown.
Immediately after the bomb throwing
on her return to ther palace, she had
an attack Of Mysteries which appar-
emily relieved her. ~ s:>.'.
!, After that the young queen braced
up wonderfully and met all the strain
Of the following week with courage.
She looked SO animated that it was
hoped she had gotten over the shock
Of the terrible sights which met he1
eyes when she issued from the wrecked
coach and stepped into pools of blood
But the moment the strain Of constant
entertainment and attending the thou
sand and one functions Of the wedding
festivities was removed, she gave way
completely to nervous prostration, an6
little wonder.
That is the reason why, altho it Ii
against the absurd etiquette Of the
Spanish court, the youthful royal couple

Invented by Naval Officers.

In his letter Waddell makes some
startling charges regarding the amount
the government is paying for its pow
der in view Of the fact it's own officers
invented the process and sold the patent
to the trust, which is overcharging the
government because it has no competi-
tor. It is shown that the government
bought from the Dupont trust In the
fiscal year 4,995,972 pounds Of ordinance
This made a total Of $3,746,979. n
The same powder coul have been
made in small plants was actually
made at the rate Of 100000 pounds q
year by the government at Indianhead
at an average price Of AZ cents, or q
total Of $2,S47 ,107. The government
plant at Indianhead has a nominal
capacity of 100000 pounds Of powder
a year, but the navy used all this last
year for target practice. Unless the
government powder factory~is built at
q q cost Of not much more than $3.50, 900,
with daily capacity of 10000 pounds
Of powder, the 10000 pounds Of reserve
ammunition ordered by the secretary Of
war must be bought from the Dupont
powder monopoly.
. If this be so, ,it will cost the govern
ment, at the.rulng price Of 75cents q
pound, the enormous sum of $22,50O, 900.
figuring on an actual COST OF powder az
35 cents a pound, /, the government would
make a saving il. IL made its own ordin-
ance smoke1ess powder in it's own fac.
tories on q large scale on the proposed
reserve stock alone of $4,000, 600, or
enough to- pay for the inspection Of all
beef, hogs and sheep products in all the
|.An,r,,' J. packing houses for the next
III cars. s s 5is
It is sufficiently startling where a
man Of the standing Of WaddeH makes
a statement over his signature that the
appropriation Of one-tenth Of the
amount expended on purchases from
the powder trust last year will build
duse a reserve supply at less than the
cost fixed by the trust
