PRESIDENT IS DISCOURAGED
Worried Over Fate of His Bills in
Congress.

congress-.
Cincinnati, May 4.-Although his
visit "home" was largely of social
character President Taft could not
altogether avoid politics. Wade H.
Ellis, now chairman of the Ohio Re-
publican executive committee, and Ar
thur I. Vorys, who served as "chief of
STAFF to Mr.. Taft during part of the
presidential campaign, boarded the
train at Columbus and as soon as the
president had finished breakfast they
sought an interview. A number of
other men of prominence in the party
called on the president during the day.
President Taft read with keenest in
terest the dispatch from Washington
dealing with the critical situation in
which the administration railroad bill
has been placed. The president would
make no comment for publication re-
garding the attitude of the progress
sives in the senate and house toward
the measure. That he holds the pro-
gressives responsible for the legisla-
tive delay is now fully recognized.
It is known that the president has
grown tired of the professions of some
Of the national legislators in both
branches of congress that they are for
his measures (when they visit the
White House,, but work against these
same measures, according to his view,
as soon as they get back to Capitol
hill

Nraho jury Awaits Return OF District
Attorney Wayman.
Chicago, May 4.-Coincident with
the departure "out of town" of States
Attorney Wayman the special grand
jury which is investigating charges Of
bribery in connection with the pas
sage of certain legislation and the
election of William Lorimer to the
United States senate adjourned for
the day.
Many rumors are current to account
for the absence of the states attor-
ney. One had it that he had gone to
Springfield to confer with States At
torney Burke of Sangamon county,
who has announced that a grand jury
called by himself will take up the
Lorimer bribery charges next Mon
day. Another rumor was to the effect
that Mr.. Wayman had taken two de-
tectives with him on a hunt for evil
dence to corroborate that of Repre-
sentative White, who made the con-
fession that he, Democrat, received
$1,000 to vote for Lorimer.

Des Moines, May 4.-The golden rule

and Mrs. Michael May, of this place,
known as Sister Mary st. Jane De
Chantel, died July 18th at the convent
of the Good Shepherd, Newark, New
Jersey, being sister in the convent.
Her death was great shock to her
parents, sisters and brothers, as well
as all her Emporium friends. Words
cannot express the high esteem in
which she was held by all who knew
her. She was loved by all and always
had a smile and CHEEKY word for
everyone. She told the sisters before
she died that she was ready to go and
meet her Heavenly Father. II would
be well if we all could meet him in
that spirit. Her life was spent in pray
ing. She leaves to mourn her early
demise, her father and mother, four
sisters and two brother. The PRESS
offers its sincere sympathy to the
bereaved family, knowing the excell-
ent young lady so well. Our citizens
will remember her faithful care of Mrs.
Thos. Trotter for so many years.
