WANTS NO PROBE
. OF SUGAR FRAUDS
Taft Tells House Who 1t Is Not
Desired at This

Washington. d. c.. May 9.--President
Taft sent special message to the
House Of Representatives. to-day to tell
vestigation OF the sugar frauds IN

because "a congressional investigation
at this time would ernbarrass the
executive department in the cont!n-
uance and completion of the investiga.

The Presidents reply was to a
resolution passed in the House on
April IL, calling upon him to state
his reasons for not wishing a con-
gressional Investigation. as he had
intimated In his message at the OPEN
ing of the session.
making his answer. the President
did not lose an opportunity to tell the
House when congressional invcsti-
cation was necessary He says in
part:
The report of the Secretary of the
Treasury and the Attorney-G General
show beyond question the utmost
vigor and effectiveness in the invos-
tigation and prosecution up - this
tional results in the recovery Of
moneys of which the government had
been defrauded; the Indictment o:

being deferred until another meeting.
The greatest interest is attached to
the report of the committee on this
subject.
The question at issue is whether the
finding of the commission. appointed
at the last General Conference. and
known as the Vanderbilt Commission
regarding the ownership Of the uni
versity and It's control. will be ac-
cepted as final by the church. The
report of the commission is to the
effect that the university is the prop
erty of the church. and that the
bishops are common law visitors and
not members Of the board of trust
The further discussion OF the ques-
ton will be watched with the keenest
interest, and when the committee SUD-
mits it's report 10 the conference II -
expected that one OF the most lively
debates in the history of the church In
recent years will follow. The open
meeting of the committee on education
this afternoon was held for the pur-
pose of giving the other members OF
the conference the opportunity OF hear
ing both sides of the question pre-
sented fully and impartially
This evening the conference met for
the purpose OF hearing the address OF
thefraternal messenger from the Meth
odist Church in Canada, Rev. w. II
Young. D. D.
Another matter of interest in the
conference to-day was the report OF
the Sunday-school committee. which
recommends the establishment OF adult
Bible classes TO replace the various
societies of young men and young "o'
men under different names, which no"
exist in the various churches. II
proposed to appoint a general super
in+endcnt and assistants for this work
and inaufgurate a church system. Tho
report will probably be adopted with
out debate.

JoKERs LOCKED UP
They Had People in Pnnnmn Terror
Stricken.

Panama, May AS the result of
an il.concelved Joke, there was little
sleep in Panama last night Another
result was the Imprisonment of the
jokers to-day.
The public has been made nervous
by reports of the earthquake dcvasta-
tions in the adjoining republic of Costa
Rica. and when the word was passed
along last evening that seismologists
had predicted that Panama would be
shaken by an earthquake during the
night and the city of Colon disappear
beneath tidal wave, panic prevailed.
The alarm spread from this city to
Ancon and Colon. Many persons fed
into the country. and those who stayed
in the towns camped in the streets and
parks Many spent the hours In
prayer The firemen and police re-
manned at their posts ready for any
emergency.
When morning broke with no harm
having been done. the people found
that they had been hoaxed. and the
police got after the jokers. The latter
were locked up.

The Andience-.And Play.
1t would be most unfair for one TO
attempt a criticism of the work of
the Benjamin Players in The Cowboy
and the Lady," after having seen only
last nights performance of that fam
Gus comedy.
The boxes and several rows of seats
were filled by the visiting soldiery Of
Connecticut and Rhode Island and
their hosts. all in the best and hap
piest of moods, all friendly and kindly
and deeply imbued with the idea that
they were perfectly at liberty to join
in the performance. TO interpolate
lines, and to add generally TO the gale
ty of nations. Even Kate Claxton and
that wonderful all-star cast could have
made nothing serious out of the lugu-
brious Two Orphans before such a
house as that.
No one could take the performance
seriously during such a college boy
night. For instance. half-breed a

slinked away. sympathetic voice
from box called out, You're in
wrong, Jim. old boy"
The sheriff lounged into the room
and rested his elbow on the bag, and a
friendly Foot Guard inquired, Cant
you buy drink, Boz?
OF course. the performance was rag
sed in many places. and much must be
forgiven on account of the house. but
I think the piece is too heavy for the
company. after all. Franklin Richie
did not get into his part-again he
played too lightly. Erwin BlunlSall and
Lydia Knott got a good deal of COM
edy out OF their lines: Herbert Curtis
gave good performance as the shcr-
if and later as the Judge; Robert
Watt thought deeply as a deaf and
dumb cowboy. and Catherine Carter
was attractive as Mrs. Weston, bur
there was little to commend in the
