it from furnishing the service desired
by the petitioners, but since that time
the company has been able to improve
its plant so that there is no further
ground for complaint
In announcing it's decision the COM
mission enters into long discussion
of telephone service and rates in Mill
waukee, and concludes that the former
is adequate and the latter reasonable.

QUANDARY OVER CENSUS
To Pass Bill Over Presidents Veto
Would Be Futile.

Reasons of the delay by the house
to again pass the bill making provision
for the taking of the thirteenth census.
which recently was vetoed by the pres.
ident, are gradually leaking out 1t
seems to have been discovered that to
PASS the bill over the presidents veto
would be futile. The members desire
the passage of the law because it pro.
vides for the appointment of census
employees without compelling them to
pass competitive examination, which
is the ground OF the presidents objec-
ton. If the house and senate passed
the message over the presidents veto,
he has it in his power to anticipate
such action by naming the entire cen
sus force in the classified service, by
an executive order.
The plan for postponing action on
the bill until after March has been
suggested, but it appears that Mr.. Taft
regards the civil service as much as
does Mr.. Roosevelt, and the future of
the bill is problematical.

Disaster in a Mexi-

AMERICANS LOSE LIVES

Three hundred persons were burned
to death when the Teatro Flores of
the city Of Acapulco, in Mexico, was
destroyed, several Americans being
among the victims
The Flores Theater was wooden
structure and over one thousand
crowded into it to witness special
performance given in honor of Govern
or Damian flores of the State of Guer-
zero. One Of the numbers of the pro-
gram consisted of series of moving
pictures. While the operator was eX-
hibiting these, a film caught fire and a
blaze was quickly communicated to
some bunting which had been used for
decorative purposes.
In an incredibly short time the
flames spread to all parts of the struct-
ure. There were but three narrow
exits and the panic-stricken audience
rushed to them, many persons falling
to be crushed to death, their bodies
choking the way to escape for others.
The screams of those imprisoned
were terrifying Owing to the rapidity
with which the fire spread and its in
tense heat it was impossible to a
tempt rescue work and those imprison-
ed were literally roasted alive, as the
fire burned with little smoke and few
were suffocated. The efforts of the fire
department were confined to attempt.
ing to save the adjoining buildings and
the firemen succeeded so well that the
property loss was small.
Acapulco. on the west coast of the
State of Guerrero is one of the three
important ports of the Pacific coast Of
Mexico. Nearly all of the steamer
lines make it port of call and the
harbor is one of the best in Mexico.

KNOX BILL GETS THROUGH
Two Votes to Clear Way to Place in
Cabinet.

BY a vote of 173 to lit, the house
passed the bill removing the bar to
Senator Knox's eligibility for the Of
fee of secretary of state. This was
the second vote of the day on the
measure.
The first vote was taken on the bill
under general order for the suspen-
sion of the rules and under that order,
according to the standing rules of the
house, bill must receive a two-thirds
majority. The first vote stood 179 to
12S, the majority thus falling consider
ably below the two-thirds require
ment.
Immediately after this result was
announced the house committee on
rules held a meeting which resulted
in Representative Dalzell's bringing in
rule making it in order to again take
up the bill and act upon it under con-
ditions which would require only a ma
jority vote to pass it.
Representative Olmstead contended
that the bill did not accomplish an eva,
sion of the constitution. Representa-
tive Williams declared the bill was "a
clear, plain, palpable, obvious and
manifest case of a direct and express
ed constitutional inhibition
Representative Clark said that con-
gress was making itself "the laughing
stock of every intelligent man OH the
face of Gods green earth" He referred
to famous expression by the late
Tim Campbell of New York, who had
said what's the constitution between
friends?" and said that # the bill
under discussion should pass, Camp
bell would stand justified as constitu-
tional lawyer.
In adding his voice against the bill,
Representative Caulfield declared that
it was a case of constitutional Jug
glery.
