While Mr. Tafts- utterances~ on the sub
tect were not so far reaching regarding
the creation Of the fourteen-foot channel
as those of President Roosevelt on sim
liar occasion and therefore not entirely
cheering to the advocate of an imme-
diate commencement of the work-yet
Speaker CannOn's Endorsement gave those
same advocates encouragement. The gen
eral good was the test which the Presi-
dent prescribed for the undertaking of
ambitious works.
Let Us take up each project on its
merits,'' he said, and determine BY all
means az our command whether the cOun-
try In which that project is TO be carried
Gus is SO far developed as to justify the
expenditure Of a large sum of money and
whether the DrOjgct viii be useful when
done.
When You nave determined that on the
general principle of good to the entire
D. country. then / am in favor of doing that
work as rapidly 5s it can be done and

Referring &c this sentiment which was
uttered in a meeting at the St Louis
coliseum az noon, Speaker Cannon ad-
dressing tlfe gathering at the dedication
of the new federal building in East St

According to. His Own Story,
Frederick Gebhardt Mar
ried Anna Luther in Febru-
airy and Killed Her in April.
HAD WIFE AND CHILD
LIVING AT THE TIME
Skeleton of Betrayed Young
Woman Recently Found
Near ISIip, l, l., and Identi-
ty Established by JeweIy,
FOOLISH LETTER WRITTEN

New York, Oct. 25.-A year and
half ago a friendless girl was muir
dered near Islip, L. l.; a week ago
her skeleton was found, with moth
ing to identify it but her jeweIry and
bill of sale from a German shop;
three days later, through the police
of Hamburg, Germany, her identity
was established as Anna Luther; to-
night her husband, Frederick Geb-
hardt, confessed over his signature
that he is the murderer.
About Dec. 1, 1907" Gebhardt told
the police, Il first met Anna Luther
We married in February, 1908, and went
to Europe to live. We returned April
g. 1908. She went to Henry Wertuph's
in Newark, n. J., for day OF two. on
the pretense that I was going to rent
an apartment I returned to my home
and wife in Astoria, L. l.
4 met Anna again on April 8, in
Newark, and we went to an address in
Thirty street, New York, and
then to Jamaica, L. 1. We stayed in
Jamaica until next day.
april 9 we went to BayshOre and
showed her some property. I got into
an argument with her about some mon
ey matters and I turned away and
wanted to go back. She followed me up,
| screaming, and I shot her in the head.
I did not look at her, and don't re-
| member whether I shot her more than
once.
Immediately after I went to the Is
/ An. NJ for hon .-
/ It was nearly dark. I threw the re-
volver out Of the car window.
Not Killed for Money.
81 did not kill Anna Luther for her
money, as the newspapers have stated.
] Ny original reason for marrying Anna
was that did not care to live with my
| first wife any longer, but as she-my
! first wife-had given me a child, my de-
| sire to see my child caused me to want
| to get rid of Anna Luther and return
to my first wife and child. This is why
shot Anna, and I told her in Bay
| shore that I was married and had a wife
and child, and must leave her.
! 'She screamed and ran after me and
kissed me- and wanted me back, and
| 1 shot her"
From the time of his arrest until he
broke down under the questions of de-
tectives, Gebhardt, although he admit
ted committing bigamy when he mar
ried Anna Luther, denied all knowledge
| Of her death.

Starting IN the dry lumber OF the

street, at 12;45 o'clock this morning, a
fire OF mysterious origin in forty min
utes' time had cut through the center
of the block between Second and Third
West streets and created a loss of over
$500 600 in the mill and lumber yards
OF the Sierra-Nevada company. The
hotel at 337 West South Temple street
was destroyed with all of its contents,
and a residence structure on the lum-
Der cOmpany's property Immediately
southwark from the milling plant was
burned.
It was twenty minutes after the first
alarm was sent in by telephone from
the Godbe-Pitts drug store before the
first wagon of Hose Company No
arrived on the scene of the conflagra-
ton, and four alarms had been turned
in from various places. When the
company arrived the milling plant was
one great spectacular blaze, and the
buildings on either side had been
ignited by the fierce heat that cracked
the glass in buildings on the opposite

COUNCIL. MAY DUST FELAND FROM
 OFFICE
Complaint Made on Contin- ued Absence of Sixth
 Ward Official

At next weeks meeting of the city council, it is probable that steps will be taken to declare vacant the position held by Bob Feland, as councilman from the Sixth ward, and to select another councilman for that position.
 The matter was brought up at last night s session and the city attorney was directed to draw up resolution declaring the position vacant, the mat ter to be acted upon next week. It was apparently the feeling of the ma jority of the members that North Globe should be represented by member of the council who resides permanently in this oity.
 There is apparently no complaint against Feland, other than that he has been absent rom the city for the past several months, with the exception of an occasional meeting.
 The voters of North Globe will be asked to name a representative, for con sideration by the council next week.

WORK DELAYED ON
 AMSTER BUILDING
Failure of Structural Steel to Arrive Will Hold Up Work for Con
 siderable Time

As the result of another delay in receiving structural steel for the new Amster building, at Broad and Oak streets, the erection of this structure will again be held up for several days.
 The missing steel consists of two col umns for the front of the building. All the other steel, including several "I VI beams and two of the columns, arrived some time ago. Through some oversight the remaining columns were not ship ped and it will probably be another week before work can be resumed.
 Contractor Grabe figures that in spite of the delay, the building will be com pleted early in December.
 Work on the Sultan building foi which MT. Grabe also has the contract will be commenced within the next few days, as the excayation for the norti half of the basement will soon be com pleted.
 All of the material for this building is now on the ground and MT. Grab' expects to complete this new building block before the first of the year.

Man Charged With Robbery of Store Acts in IT.
 rational Manner

Florentina Martinez, one of the four men arrested few days ago on sus- picion of having robbed the store of E. M. Race, is believed to be insane.
 Martinez has been acting in an ira tional manner since his incarceration in the county jail and from casual ex- animation which has been made by the county officials, he is apparently mental ly deranged.
 The man has been drinking heavily for some time and he is suffering from the effects of alcoholic excesses. In ad. dition to this fact, he is apparently mentally unbalanced in other ways.
 No complaint has been filed against Martinez on an insanity charge as yet although he is being closely watched.
 Roque Gonzales, another suspect ar rested in connection with the burglary of Race store, was partially examined before Judge Hinson Thomas yester day.
 One of the witnesses failed to sub stantiate story which he told to tho officers at the time the arrests were made and as a result, it was necessary to continue the hearing until today, tt secure further evidence.

Nick Bush Thought to Have Been Killed, But May
 Recover

As the result of an accident on the high line, near the Old Dominion smelt- CT yesterday afternoon, Nick Bush, a miner, was seriously injured.
 Bush was riding to the shelter on a freight ear, when & projecting piece of pipe which he failed to avoid, swept him from the car and hurled him to the ground.
 The man fell heavily, sustaining a bad cut on the head and two fractured ribs.
 As the force of the fall rendered the man insensible, it was at first thought that he had been killed. When taken to the Old Dominion hospital and given medical aid, he revived and it was stated last night that he had good chance for recovery.
 Bush is about 30 years of age.
