CANNON BOOM FOR
 THE PRESIDENCY
Speakers Views Win Protec-
 tive Tariff League
STANDPATTERS eEl BUSY
"uncIe Joe" Arrives In Washington, But Ia Modest About Talking \ Except Through Ills
 Friends.

Washington, May 22.-(Special) )-Speaker Cannon is in Washington with his pres idential boom. The speaker is modest about it himself, but his friends are quite willing to talk. The fact that the stand patters have suddenly become very busy through the medium of the American Protective Tariff league and are attacking Secretary Taft's tariff revision views rebound, they say to the benefit of the speaker, whose uncompromislng position against revision means support from that powerful faction of the G. o. P.
 The speaker is said to be determined that there shall be no revision in the next Congress. certainly not at the com ing session, which immediately proceeds the presidential election. That a tariff debate would disrupt the organization is the view of the House organization for once the work of revision is started not half a dozen members could agree upon a single schedule exemplifying the diff ference of opinion. A story is told of conversations the speaker recently has had with Representative Roberts of Mas sachusetts and Representative Prince of Illinois. The former is said to have told the speaker that there ought to be some revision.
 What do you suggest" inquired the speaker.
 "Oh, free hides. free wool and recipro- city with Canada"
 A few minutes later Representative Prince said:
 MT. Epeaker, we must do something with the tariff. It's getting too warm for us in the vest
 Well, what do you suggest@'
 "Oh. just few changes here and there. reduce rates on woolen goods. cotton goods, cutlery and reciprocity with Ger many and France"
 But MT. Roberts wants free wool and free hides and free coal" suggested the speaker.
 Great hevens, MT. Speaker, that man must be crazy. Why he is not fit to be allowed to touch tariff schedule
 And when Mir. Princes suggestion of tariff changes were outlined to MT. Rob erts the things that Roberts said about Princes judgment and statesmanship would not look well fin print.

PROOF OF NEGRO
 SOLDIERS GUILT. Majority of Senate Committee
 is Convinced ON BROWNSVILLE AFFAIR No Agreement Reached as to Visiting Texas to Take Testimony, But
 Foraker Calls for More
 Witnesses.
ON BROWNSVILLE AFFAIR

Washington, May 22-The Senate com mittee on military affairs which is inves- tigating the Brownsville affair." held an executive session at the close of the hear in5 today to determine whether the com mittee shall go to Texas to take testi- mony and personally inquire into the shooting from the Brownsville point of view. No agreement was reached.
 A majority of the members of the com mttee argued that the testimony taken already proves conclusively that the ne- gro troops did the shooting and that nothing would be gained by taking the trip. Likewise, it was intimated by sev- eral senators that there was no occasion to call any more witnesses. Senator Foraker took exception to this position and he was supported by the three or four senators who have sided with him in the defense of the negroes.
 It was decided to summon several more witnesses from Brownsville that are deemed important and to examine the experts at the Springfield arsenal who made the report on the shells picked up in the streets of Brownsville after the shooting. After this has been done, the question of going to Texas will again be considered, and it is likely that a sub committee at least. will go there.
 Fred F.. Starck and Fred Taite. mount ed customs inspectors. with headauarters at Brownsville, and Herbert Elkins a clerk ir a confectionery store there, were on the stand today. Starek told of the escape of himself and family on the night of the shooting. Eight bullets were fired into the house and the family took refuge behind a brick chimney. Shells were found in front of his house the next morning and the witness said they were of the character used by the soldiers and showed that they had been freshly fired. Taite Is the man who struck Il negro soldier over the head with his six shooter because the soldier had brushed aside woman who was standing on the sidewalk

ROUND UP VEN|RE FOR HAYWOOD JURY Trial at Boise Will Be Resumed
 Today HANLEY OPENS FOR STATE
 ---<l -- Sheriff Hodsin and Deputies Busy. Doubt as to Calling Steve Adams as a Witness In the
 Case.
HANLEY OPENS FOR STATE

Boise, Idaho, May 22.-By the use or train, stage and horse and some active hustling Sheriff Shad Hodgin and his deputies managed today to round up majority of the fifty men. included in the special venlre issued yesterday in the Steunenberg murder case and they are now all expected to be on hand when the trial is resumed at o'clock tomorrow afternoon. It has been decided that James H. Hawley, senior counsel for the state, will make the opening statement. He and his associates were in conference on the subject today and they also spent some time in considering the testimony to be offered next week and the order in which it will be offered.
 It has not yet been decided by the state to call Steve Adams as a witness. lie is on the list of the states witnesses and it was for a time deemed certain that he would be brought here and willing or un- willing, be placed on the stand, but now, the matter Is in doubt, and will probably not be determined until later.
 The Haywood trial is at a standstill to- day while Sheriff "Shad' Hodgin and al- most his entire reputy force are in the county summoning the extra venire or sixty men ordered yesterday when the last special venire of 100 drawn for the case was exhausted. The sheriff expects to report the compltion of his task tomor- row when the trial will be resumed. Jury service will come as a severe hardship on farmers and ranchmen who are being called from their work in the field at a time of the year when irrigation ditches must be kept in order and that ground carefully tended to insure the years crop.

REVOLUTION IN
 SALVADOR IS ON News of Outbreak Reaches
 Mexico Cit DR. ALFARA HEADS MOVE
Official Circles Not Informed, But Re- port Is CredIted-Zelaya Works Toward Confederation In
 In Central America.

Mexico City, May 22.-News of the out break of a revolution in Salvador has been received with the greatest interest While no confirmation of the fact has been received in official circles, there is a general disposition to credit the news
 As published in previous Associated Press dispatches it was known all along that President Zelaya of Nicaragua de- sired a man of his own as president of Salvador This could only be brought about by the launching of revolution against the present incumbent, President Figueroa. To head this movement Zelaya had chosen pr. Prudencio Alfara a prom dnent Salvadorean, who was hostile to the Figueroa regime.
 For weeks pr. Alfara has been in hid ing the presumption being that he was quietly planning and recruiting in prep aration of the expected blow. This, how ever, was to be delayed, according to the programme, until zelaya had pacified Honduras and had placed Davila secure ly in power The announcement of the precipitation of the revolution before such a condition of affairs had been brought about has caused some anxiety in the ranks of the juntas, who are planning for the overthrow of President Estrada Ca brera of Guatemala and the eventual con- federation of five Central American re- publics.
 It is not generally believed, however, that Alfara's move has been. premature. but it is thought to have been the result of forced play. Either Zelaya was com pelled to move before he expected, or President Figueroa forseeing the trap into which he was to be enticed, has forced Alfara's hand.
 The movement of Mexican infantry to the Guatemalan frontier is proceeding slowly At the state department it was said that the shipment of troops south had no further signifcarce than that or ? F ne precautop for defense.

mittee reported that 1t considered the question too great to be decided hastily and 1ecofnended that committee of five be appoined to define the duties of the committee and report to the next. general assembly. the committee mean time to avoid all appearances of political activity.
 The first part of the report of the standing committee on temperance ad- verse to the overtures for abandonment of the Inter-Church federation, was adopted but the second part deferrlng the definition of the duties of the per manent committee on temperance, raised storm of protests.
 At this point Dr. w. o. Thompson. president of the Ohio State university, came forward with the substitute resolu- Iion. barring the temperance committee from participation in political affairs and was subsequently, adopted.
 Just before the close of the debate, Rev. Charles Scanlan of Pittsburg. secre- tary of the Inter-Church Temperance federation. made a brief address. during which he was greeted with shouts of dis approval He said he had been told that the purpose of the Anti-Saloon league was to cripple the work of the perma- nent temperance committee and he said 1T this was true he wanted to know 1t.
 Upon vote being taken the substi- ute resolution and amendment to the report of the standing committee on temperance were adopted without dts senting vote.
