Scores Politicians Of Island
in His Message and De-
clares Islanders Do Not
Appreciate This Country.

Washington. May 10.--In a vigor-
Gus message sent TO congress today.
the president expressed the opinion
that the United States has gone too
far in the extension OF the powers of
self government of the people of
Porto Rico. He recommends certain
notifications in the act. which pro-
vides for the administration OF affairs
I'm the island. This Is due to the fail
ure Of the legislative assembly in the
island to make proper appropriations
to meet the expenses OF government.
I'm the desire OF certain OF their
leaders for political power the Porto
Ricans forgot the generosity OF the
United States In It's dealings with
them" the message says. 1.-THE pres
ent development is only an indica-
ton that we have gone too fast In
the extension of political power to
them for their good"
President Taft censures unsparing-
ly the action c: the house of dele
gates OF the island in refusing to pass
appropriation bills for the coming
year. and suggests the desirability of
taking from the lower body OF Porto
Rican ASSEMBLY lie power thus to
hamper the government OF the island.

Woman Almost Collapses and
Admits She Swallowed
Drus.-.Razor Found Con.
cealed by Man.

Mercer, May 10.-Boyle was given
a life sentence today for kidnapping
Willie Whitla. Mrs. Boyle was given
TWENTY-FIVE years.
Attorney Miller spoke for both
prisoners. but his plea FOR mercy was
vain. He said Boyle treated Billy
with kindness, nor was there any
thing In the letters to scare his
parents unduly. He said the punish
ment for second degree murder was
less than that assessed for kidnapping.
Neither OF the prisoners made any
statements after being sentenced.
Mrs. Boyle was also fined $1,000.
Mrs. Boyle stood stiffiy erect while
she heard the sentence. Outside the
court room she swayed into the arms
of guard and seemed about to faint.
In the cell she broke down and wept
Historically. The crowd in the court
room heard the sentence without
demonstration.
A careful scheme on the part of
Boyle and his wife to cheat Justice
was frustrated today when a razor
was found in the lining OF Boyle's tie.
Mrs. Boyle admits frankly she took
enough morphine to kill two people
and II didn't have the desired result
They are to be taken TO the peniten-
tiary as soon as possible, the sheriff
says.
The only comment J. P. Whitla
made was: 81 am glad it's over"
