 The course is full of sharp turns and
 grades. and while no great speed can
 be made, as in the Vanderbilt cup race, the spectators will probably witness many thrilling spurts and brushes on the level stretches. On the compara- lively straight stretches. tthere are no real stralghtaways), fairly good time can, be made. but owing to the | many turns land curves in the roads, 1t | is believed that the average speed for | the race will not exceed fcrty-hve miles an hour. But to make this aver- age will require the most careful man | ipulation of the steering wheel. The | race is scheduled. to start as soon as | daylight appears tomorrow morning. | and will probably last until 1 o'clock | in the afternoon. The time limit TOT | finishing Is 2:30 o'clock.

CONGRESS
summnry of senate.

Washington, April 23.-As the Sem ate was about to conclude consideration of the naval appropriation bill today, Senator Piles of Washington proposed an amendment increasing from two to four the number of new battleships to be authorized. As several Senators desired to speak on the amendment the, further consideration of the bill was proposed until tomorrow. An amendment to the naval bill was adopt ed ,appropriating $7.00o,000 to begin construction on the two battlesnips, au- thorized by the bill as it was passed by the House.
 spirited debate occurred on the amendment for the restriction or the purchase of materials for the construc- tion of the battleships, submarine boats, etc., to those of domestic man ufacture.
 Amendments to remove that restric- tfon from the bill were defeated, MT. Hale stating that since the inVestlga- tion of the steel trust some years ago the price of steel armor had been re- duced from $500 and $500 per ton to S4I6 per ton and Mir Beveridge de- clarinr that the United States pays less for it's armor plate than any other na- tion except Japan.
 Senator Rayner of Maryland spoke today on the constitutional rights oi the States and executive encroachment He Insisted that the commerce act oi the constitution had been interpreted AS applying to the industrial life oi the country to a far greater desree than was contemplated by the Tram CTS of the constitution. He regretted The tendency of Democrats to look up, on the President as their guide ano declared that the President could mol be accepted as Messiah.

Some one criticlses the evangelist for giving Satan a place in his narrative. But he could not avoid 1t. Gods work and the devils were parallel in human life. The Berlen Bible auaintly says: "Christ prepares himself Satan pre- pares himself. Hence the text appears here abruutly torn asunder. Yet there is deep harmony.

KILLED DURING A :
FAMILY QUARREL
Prominent Pennsylvania Shot
by His Sister-in-LaW.

Philadelphia, Oct IL. Clayton
Erb, captain and regimental quarter
master of the Third regiment, Nation
al guard OF Pennsylvania, was shot
and killed at his summer home near
Village Green, Delaware county. His
sister-in-law, Mrs. Catherine Beisel, is
under arrest in the Media jail, charged
with the murder. The woman admits
that she did the shooting during fam.
lily quarrel.
Captain Erb, who was private Sec
rotary to Israel w. Durham, political
leader of this city, was one of the best
known men in political circles in
Philadelphia.
About two years ago he was mar
ried and moved to Delaware county.
For time everything went along
smoothly, but recently there were
family qnarrels. On Aug. "a, Mrs. Erb,
who was Mrs. w. G. Rothermel, di-
yorced woman, caused the arrest of
Eugene Poulson, Mr.. Erb's colored
coachman, on charge of threatening
her life. At the hearing in the case
she said that she had been Informed
that Poulson was acting as a spy for
Captain Erb. who stood by the coach
man at the hearing, as against his
wife.
He subsequently explained that he
did so because he expected to insti-
tute proceedings against Mrs. Erb and
expected Poulson to be an important
witness in the case in which Mrs.
Catherine Beisel, Mrs. Erbs sister,
was to be involved.
Captain Erb declared at the hearing
that he had been duped when he mar
ried Mrs. Rothermel and that her con-
duct during his absence at Pine
Plains last summer had been improper.
Several weeks later Mrs. Erb caused
the arrest of her husband on charge
of assault and battery and he was
held for trial.

the statement made here. 1t VIII be
proposed by Great Britain, France and
Russia, acting together. instead OF by
one power. These three powers are
IN complete accord on the principle
of an immediate conference; Italy Is
in favor of it and even Germany is
expected to adhere to the proposal.
News that the proclamation of the
annexation of Bosnia and Herzegovina
by Austria-Hungary soon would be is
sued is much commented upon here,
This is regarded as showing Austrias
anxiety to have it an accomplished
fact before she receives the invitation
to attend the internatian4l confer
ence, into which she means TO go with
the provinces in her pocket.
In official circles, the statementS
that Germany Is any way concerned in
the double move of Austria and Bull
garia are altogether discredited.
