Franz Delch. the German subject

failed to halt when challenged, has
entirely recovered from the serious
wounds received. and is ready to
leave the hospital.

can depart whenever he so desires,
and she has communicated with the
German vice-consul, at Portland, re-
garding his pleasure in the matter.
The only effects now felt by Deich,
as a result of the eight perforations
of the intestines by the bullet is an
occasional sharp pain in the side from
a tender spot. Otherwise, DR.. Morse
says, he is as strong physically as
he ever was.

Senator Allison of Iowa, chairman of
the committee on Appropriations, said to-
day that he would probably announce the
subcommittee on appropriations as soon
as Congress reconvenes after the hoi-
days. He could not tell, he said. who the
members of the subcommittee on the Dis
trict of Columbia will be, except that
Senator Gallinger will probably retain his
place as chairman. o.
The District subcommittee last winter
was composed of Senator Gallnger. chair
man. and Senators Allison, Wetmore and
Tillman. Before his death Senator Cor
man was member. and his place on the
subcommittee was not filled. The delay
in Mr.. Wetmore's election will result in
his being left off the appropriations COM
mittee this session. This leaves two va
cancies on the District subcommittee.
1t has been suggested that Senator Clay
is the logical successor to Mr.. German on
the District subcommittee since he sue
ceeded Mr.. German on the full committee
1t is considered likely that one of the new

FOR BUREAU OF FISHERIES.
To Transfer Part Of Reservation No.
113 to Dept. Of Commerce and Labor

Gen. Mackenzie. chief of engineers. who
has jurisdiction over most of the public
reservations in the District has been
asked to transfer a portion of reserva-
tiol No. 113, between 7th, 9th and C
streets southwest to the Department of
Commerce and Labor for the use of the
bureau of fisheries. 1t appears from a
state ment made by the Secretary Of Com
merce and Labor that, owing to recent
changes in the location of the railroad
tracks in the southwestern portion of
his city. including the removal of the
tracks from 9Th street. it Is no longer
possible to use the yard adjacent to the
office of the bureau of fisheries. at the
corner of 9Th and r streets southwest,
for the storage of the six cars of the
bureau.
After a careful examination of the sit
uation the officials concluded that res
ervation No. 113 is the most convenient
and feasible place for the purpose In
a letter to the Secretary of War on the
subject. the Secretary of Commerce and
Labor said: LAS that reservation is un-
der the jurisdiction of the chief of en-
gineers. United States Army. and the
railroad tracks on the portion desired by
the bureau of fisheries are about to be
removed, it is requested that the bureau
of fisheries be authorized to use a por-
of these (six) cars. and that permission
be given to lay tracks and construct
switches in accordance with the accom-
panying blue print (submitteO."
The application has been referred to
Col. Bromwell, the officer in charge of
public buildings and grounds, for investi-
cation and report.

THE PALERMO EXPLOSION.
Forty-Three Dead Bodies Taker
From the Ruins to Date.

Special Cablegram to The Star
PALERMO. Sicily, December 20.-Forty
three dead bodies have so far been taken
out of the ruins of small arms factory
in which an explosion of gunpoWder
and dynamite took place yesterday. A
great many persons were wounded. A
large number of returned emigrants from
America were lodging at the time of the
disaster in the building where it occurred.
The whole town was shaken and
the people thrown into a panic. Almost
Immediately flames spread to the ruins of
houses that had fallen, adding greatly to
the terror.
Several houses that stood above the
magazine partially collapsed, and their
destruction was completed by the fire.
One of them was an emigrantS lodging
house and number of emigrants were
killed
The work of rescue continued up to this
morning.
Tp to the present time it is known that
ninety-three persons met their death from
the explosion and subsequent fire, and
more than 100 were injured. The lodging
house for emigrants which was destroyed
by the flames, gave the largest number
of victims.
Palermo is the capital of Sicily. being
the judicial. ecclesiastical and military
center of the island. 1t is divided into
four quarters which intersect at the
Quattro Can't. Many magnificent statues
line this thoroughfare.
1t is a city famous for its historical
churches, palaces and public buildings,
and is the seat of the University of Pa
lermo the library of which contains 220,
600 volumes.
The environs of the city are embelished d
with elaborate villas, which are of great
beauty and interest.
Palermo was the scene of revolutionary
outbreaks in 1870. ls4Si9 and 1850, and
suffered much in consequence.

LIMITATION ON RATE CLAIMS
OFFICIAL INTERPRETATION OF
THE HEPBURN ACT.
No Formal Announcement Made
Entry on Minutes of the In
terstate Commission.

An official Interpretation of the two
years limitation provision of the rail-
road rate law, popularly known as the
Hepburn act, has been made by the in
terstate commerce commission. This ac-
ton of the commission is of the first inn
portance regarding all claims now pend
ing before the commission, or likely to
be filed, for damages or reparation. The
claims now pending include the demands
for reparation made by the members Of
the Yellow Pine Association, which ag-
gregate between two and three million
dollars.
The commission has issued no formal
announcement OF its Interpretation OF
the Limitation provision OF the interstate
commerce act. but simply directed that
the following entry be made on the min
utes of the body:
The Commissions Ruling.
Claims filed since August %, 1907,
must have accrued within two years prior
to the date when they were filed, other
wise they are barred by the statute.
Claims filed on or before August %. 1907,
are not affected by the two years limi-
tation in the act
Voting in the afflrmative:The chair
man ana commissioners Prouty, Clark
and Harlan.
Voting in the negative: Commissioners
Clements, Cockrell and Lane.
The commission will not take jurisdic-
ton of. or recognize its Jurisdiction over
any claims for reparation or damages
which are barred by the statute Of limi-
tations as interpreted by the commission
and the commission holds further that 1t
will not recognize the right Of the carrier
to waive the provisions Of the statute
Commissioner Harlan's View.
commissioner Harlan. voting in the
negative on the above Interpretation OF
the limitation of the act. desires to be
recorded as holding that the Limitation in
this act. like the limitation in other acts
does not affect the jurisdiction of the
commission. but is a personal privilege
that may be waived by defendants in pro-
ceedings before the commission. He eX-
pressed himself also as inclined to the
view that a defendant who offered to
waive the bar of the statute as to one
claimant might be required by the COM
mission also to waive it as to all other
claimants. whose claims involved the
same rate or issue, | norder to avoid dis
ordinations.
Relative to the construction Of the law
as to the statute of limitations, the act
went into effect August %, 1906"
