PEKING. June 27.-An imperial de-

Billion DOLLAR
CONGRESS SCORED
Democrat Says 20 Per Cent of
Sum Goes to DrOnes and
Nonproducers
Military Despotism' Takes
Taxes ''Extorted" From Peo-
pie, Declares Livingston

WASHINGTON. June 27.-The appro-
gress just closed amounted to s1,O27,-
13S.446. according to an official an
nouncement made by the house appro-
priations committee today
Separate statements were made by
Chairman Tawney, republican, and Rep
resentative Livingston of Georgia
ranking democratic member of the
committee, analyzing the figures from
the standpoints of the two parties.
Tawney contended that a reduction
of s2S,52S,S21 from the last session of
the sixtieth congress had been achieved,
and that prospects indicated that the
governments receipts for the fiscal year
1911 would exceed the authorized ap-
preparation by $11,937.S12-
The democratic view was that again
the high water mark of a billion dol
lars of expenditures Is passed" that,
including the authorized reclamation
issue, river and harbor obligations. pub
lie bridges authorized, lighthouses, etc.
the total direct and indirect appropria-
tions for the last session reached
$l,095, 902, 051, increasing the previous
regular sessions appropriation by
SIS, ,909.
The military expenses. declared
Livingston. amount to considerably
more than all the rest of the federal
expenditures put together" approxi-
mating 70 per cent of all such expenses.
l don't believe there ever was a mill
tary despotism on earth that took so
large a toll from the taxes extorted
from all OF the people for purposes
purely of war
Out of these hundreds of thousands
of dollars thus dissipated" he said.
there was naught but memories of
wages, food and raiment bought for
drones and nonproducers; a few more
floating engines of war, costly fortifi-
cations that later will become obsolete,
the real every day service of the people
getting comparatively little"

OGDEN. Utah. June 27.-Three ban
dts who held up and robbed the second
section of the Oregon Short Line train
special, within the city limits of Ogden
at 1850 o'clock this morning are still at
large. The bandits dubbed every one
Offering resistance and robbed 40 pas
sengers in the day coaches of money
and jewelry to the estimated value of
$500.
Posses headed by the sheriffs of three
counties and the special officers of all
the Hartman lines are following what
is believed to be the trail of the fugi-
tives. All the information that the
pursuers possess at present is that the
bandits are headed toward Nevada,
west of ogden. All roads, trails and
the railroad tracks are guarded by
members of the posses.
ROBBERS FLEE IN BUGGY
The robbers drove to the scene of the
holdup in a rubber tired vehicle, with
which they made their escape TO the
west. A farmer in a field near Slater
vile, Is miles west of Ogden. saw the
three driving furiousIy toward the cut
off of the Southern Pacific company
across Great Salt Lake at o'clock this
morning.
In his report of the hoIdup Conductor
II. A. Williams said that the three rob-
bers wore masks. Two of them
weighed about $50 pounds each, while
the third one was heavier. They wore
black slouch hats with greasy bands.
While going through the express car
one of the robbers said that they knew
there was little or no money on the
train. but that they would make a
search anyway. They saw money go
out in the express car of the first sec
ton of the train, which they were un-
able to board.
The robbers drove to Second street
from Ogden in a buggy. They stopped
the train by placing railroad torpedoes
on the track. When the engineer
brought the train to stop the head
brakeman went forward to ascertain
the cause of the delay and was struck
over the head with a revolver by one
of the robbers. He was then taken at
the point of a pistol to the express car
and compelled to call to the messenger
to open the door
AS soon as the door was opened one
of the bandits crawled in and COM
manded the messenger to open the safe.
After rif1ing the safe the robbers
turned their attention to the coaches.
AS they started for the coaches Rear
Brakeman N. B. Franklin was met as
he was on his way forward. The ban
dts commanded him to halt, but he
continued and two shots were fired at
him.
With daring equal to any robbery
ever pulled off by the famous Jesse
James gang, the train robbers went
through each coach with a deliberation
and calmness that showed they were
not novices at the game.

been used successfully all over New
England and in the western mining
districts. It Is attached to whalebone
handles y inches long and weighs TWO
ounces. The handles have inscriptions
on them which are almost obliterated
by age.
The person who brought the rod to
America was Isaac Greenleaf, who set
tied in Massachusetts. The rod became
famous as a finder of water. After
marking the place Of many springs the
rod was used in California, Colorado
and North Carolina for locating by men

at the time of the raise that milk

would not pay the new price, however
they are continuing to sell at the old

of it into the boat when the leviathan
made it's presence known by thump-
ing the bottom of the Goodpartner
with its tail. A minute later 1t ap.
peared alongside and hit the Good
partner amidships.
Luckily the shark had entangled It's
front fms and its head in the stout
meshes of the net. Before 1t could
tear itself free three thicknesses of
the net we're wound around It, Then
the struggle began. The six men on
the Goodpartner worked desperately
to keep the head of the big fish near
the boat and the death-dealing tail
away. Again and again it would rear
its big bulk out of the water and
smash in the sides of the cabin. Olaf
Larsen, the youngest member Of the
crew, had his arm broken, and Cap
! tain Dragich was cut in the head and
chest by flying glass.
The Pioneer II. came to the assist.
ance of the desperate fishermen on
the Goodpartner after about an hour
of the conflict. They towed the fish
and the boat to sandy beach, Tackle
was fastened to a tree on the shore
and the Pioneers winch managed tc
pull the fighting fish into the shoa
water. AS the tide ebbed the shark
was left high and dry, and Its strug
giles diminished. At one o'clock Cap
tain George Saeher of the Pioneer II
got close enough to the fish to chop {
hole in It's throat with an ak.
Besides the personal injuries sui
fered by the various members OF tn
crew, big net valued at $1,000 wa
