.0R. HYDE LOST GROUND N GROSS EXAMINATION THE RECORD OF HIS CYANIDE
 PURCHASES. His Explanation of His Typhoid Germ
 Colony.

Kansas City May 10.-At the close of a long and arduous cross-examination of Dr. Hyde by Prosecutor Conkling late today the defense in the Swope murder trial rested The case will be in the hands of the jury by Saturday. it is thought.
 Hyde was on the witness stand al- most the entire day.
 That Hyde did not name a druggist, other than Hugo Brecklein, of whom he had purchased cyanide for the ten years the physician said he had used it, is regarded by the state as the most valuable development in the interro- gatiOn. Hyde began to purchase cya- hide of Brecklein last fall.
 The state laid great stress on the fact that pr. Hyde had obtained more than 200 culture tubes for the recep- ton of germs. The defense contends that this only proves the physicians assertion that he was stocking up for a laboratory.
 On direct examination, pr. Hyde said he never poisoned any members of the Swope family; that he never dropped capsules in the street in Independence, as Thomas H. Swope. Jr., claimed to have seen him do; that he used cyanide mainly for killing bugs in his office. and that he injected camphorated oil. and that alone, in Margaret Swope's arm.

200 AYES AND I26 NAYS
Fourteen Democrats For Measure Minority Op- posed It Because Rail roads Had No Lobby At Work Against It

Washington, May 10.-Without a single dissenting republican vote, the house today passed the railroad bill, one of the chief measures President Taft wished enacted at the present congress, by 200 to I26. Fourteen democrats joined the majority.
 President Taft said tonight that he was deeply gratified over the passage of the bill. He was especially pleased with the comfortable margin by which the commerce court feature was kept in the measure. for he regards this court as probably the most important step in the proposed law.
 Speaking of the bill as it passed the house today. MT. Mann. chairman of the committee on interstate and foreign commerce. said: Under the existing conditions, through the non- observance of the existing long and short haul clause, a very large pro- portion of the freight of the country is carried by the long g-distance ar rangement instead of being carried by the most direct route, whereas, if the railroads are compelled to cease doing that, each would carry the same amount of freight by the most direct route and be able to save expense and reduce railroad rates" ,..
 Champ Clark, leader of the demo- cratic minority. explained the demo- cratic course, in opposing the bill on the final vote. He said: "The demo- crats who voted against the bill did so because they considered that there lnR m tho hill than there were good ones- When it was first brought into the house It was railroad bill, pure and simple. It was drawn in their interests. Not a railroad lobbyist appeared in oppo- sition to the bill, which. says more eloquently than many volumes could do that the railroads were in favor of this legislation"

II WAS 4 BETTER DAY
 AT BEN L0M0AD CAMP
Jeffries More Like His Old Time
 Self.

Ben Lomond. May 10.-With Mrs Jeffries applauding. Jeffries roughed it for six rounds with Choynski and Armstrong today With his eye still blackened from the blow he received Monday, he seemed anxious to give a good account of himself and his two spaIFing partners seemed glad when the bout was over. He was faster than at any time since be- ginning training and, after three miles of short sprints on his course he announced that he has taken of about twenty-five pounds since be- ginning training. and is now tipping the scales at 225. Nothing was done during the early hours of the after noon. but shortly before evening the fighter indulged in a little fast base ball practice.
 Jeffries' work out in the morning was decidedly re-assuring after his numbering exhibition yesterday af- ternoon. He romped through the two clouting matches as if he enjoy ed it and in one of the mix-ups playfully set Armstrong on his back as if he were a small boy.
 Today's experiment will be re- peated in the road work for the next three weeks, splitting up the distance into 100 yard sprints instead of the usual 10-mile drill

If anything he took his camp followers over the roads Of Golden Gate park at a faster clip than the previous day and felt so good on his return that he tossed the medicine ball and played baseball before he took a rubdown. %
 Johnson's trainers declare that they are highly pleased with the condition of the fighter. They say that the easy way he has fallen into preliminary
 training is the best proof of John sons condition at the outset.
 The most important phase of the day at Johnson's camp was the weighing of lthe fighter Jack has not been on the scales since he arrived in California, and there was surprise on his part as well as the trainers when the scales , tilted at 220.

However, the prize fell to a citizen of Parker. A. $. Prescott of the Parker Commercial company, who paid $45O for lot in block 194. r. A. Tharaldson of Phoenix got the second choice at $460.
 The bidding for the lots offered was then taken up by the out of town in vestors, who showed a disposition in the outset to be cautious as to the prices they offered for some of the choice close in property. However. they immediately found that they had no reason for their timidity inasmuch as every desirable lot that vas offered was taken by what appeared to be a strong syndicate of local and Califor- mia capital, headed by M E. Paddock of Long Beach. Cal.
 The bidding by these people set the pace and the visiting buyers had to keep step or fall out of the procession. as whenever any choice property was put under the hammer this local com bination whose members seemed to have the courage of their convictions that which was most desirable in the majority of cases.
 Nearly one hundred lots were sold today which approximates $10.000 and Receiver Charles Arnold says. that the auction will continue as long as the bidding will justify. He is accompa- nied by Chief Deputy United States Marshal Willetts with q corps of as- sistants to take care of Uncle Sam's coin.

There Will Be a Contact of More Than
 Ten Hours.

San Jose. May 10.-Director Camp bell of Lick observatory today issued the following statement: 'Halley's is the most conspicuous comet since that of 1882 The chances are that in a few days 1t will surpass in apparent size the great comet of 1882
 "Astronomer Curtis photographed thirty three degrees of the tail this morning. Nearly all this extent is visi- ble to the unassisted eye. The diame- ter of the tail at point fifteen million miles fro mthe head is 1000, 300 miles. As the earth and comet pass each other on the evening of May IS, with a rela- tive velocity of forty and fifty miles second the earth will be approxiate- ly ten hours in passing through the tail provided the present dimensions are essentially unchanged.
 Observers in the southern part of the United States and a similar lati- tude should look a few minutes later at 3:15 a. m. to get the best view of the comet. Tomorrow morning the comet will be forty million miles from the earth"

SHE REBuKEg THE CAAIRMA AN
Who Had Laid Law Down to Attorney For Glavis. Cross Examination of Secretary Ballinger Was Almost Concluded

Washington. May 10.-The existence of rulings of the interior department which Mir Ballinger must have vio- lated in appearing before the general land office in behalf of the Cunning ham coal claimants. after his retire ment as land commissioner was brought out by Attorney Brandeis in his cross-examinatiOn of the secretary of the interior. in the Ballinger- Pinchot investigation today.
 Mir. Brandeis secured an admission from Mir. Ballinger that he had been barred from appearing before the land office by a similar ruling in another case subsequent to his activity in the Cunningham cases and prior to his becoming secretary of the interior
 Mir. Ballinger said he had not called these rulings to the attention of the president to assist him in reaching a conclusion on the Glavis charge be cause he did not think there was any law to sustain them.
 The committee decided to grant the request of Attorney Brandeis that Os- car Lawler. assistant attorney general for the interior department be asked to furnish the original or copies of the memorandum he prepared for the president last September. and which Mir. Brandeis has intimated the pres ! ident followed in writing his letter yindicating Mir. Ballinger and dismiss ing >E--R. Glavis. By a unanimous vote the committee refused to ask the president for similar information
 Attorney Brandeis had almost con cluded the cross examination of Mr. Ballinger when the hearing was ad- journed until Tuesday. He devoted practically the entire day to the sub ject of the clear listing of the Gun ningham claim by Commissioner Bal finger to show, that extraordinary haste had been made to rush the claims to patent. and that Glavis' re- iterated protests alone had caused Mir BaIlinger to pause.
 During an exchange of amenities between Chairman Nelson and Attor- ney Brandeis. one of the women spec totors rebuked the former because he undertook to discipline the inquisitor for 'snapping" at members of the committee
 You can insult witnesses but you cannot insult the committee" said Mir. tNelson hotly. addressing Mir Brandeis.
 You can't insult him either" in terrupted the lawyers fair feminine defender whose identity was hidden behind a solid row of chantecler hats.
 Senator Nelson was too surprised to answer So was MT. Brandeis and harmony was restored.

AN AMENDED l DECLARATION Which English Kings Must
 Make To Parliament URGED BY THE CATHOLICS So That It Will Not Aim At Their Belief As It Has Done For Centuries. The
 Cabinet Preparing Bill to
 That Effect
URGED BY THE CATHOLICS

London, May 10.-While the rulers and representatives of foreign nations are assembling here for the obsequies of King Edward, the various necessary formalities incident to the sad event gradually are being completed.
 The widowed queen has sent touch- ing personal message to the nation written in an unassumipg style and re- Queen Victoria was in the habit of ad = dressing to her people
 King George has addressed messages to the navy and army expressing his thanks for their loyalty and devotion and his solicitude for the efficiency of both services. A message also has gone from the king to the Indian princes and people expressing gratitude for their sympathy.
 John Redmond. leader Of the Irish parliamentary party, has written to Premier Asquith, reminding him of the favorable expressions when recently the question was raised in parliament by the Duke of Norfolk. the foremost Catholic in England. on abolishing from the declaration the monarch must make before a new parliament. of the ancient words. "abjuring the church of Rome" These words, Redmond de- clares. are most offensive to Catholics. The cabinet today decided to intro- duce a bill amending the declaration of the king wherein he asserts his dis belief in trans- standardization and in the adoration of the virgin and the saints and that he makes declaration without mental reservation or dispen- sation from the pope or other authori- ty. For the declaration that the fore going objects and the mass "are su- perstitions and idolatrous," it is pro- posed to substitute the words 'are con- trary to my belief' and to omit refer ence to the pope.
 E The majority of parliament is be- lieyed to favor these changes, but the Orangemen and extreme Protestants will oppose them The Catholics wish the entire declaration abolished, but the law officers of the crown consider such a safeguard against a Catholic monarchy necessary.
 It was definitely announced tonight that MT Roosevelts lecture at Oxford university, scheduled for May IS, has been postponed.
 Late tonight the body of King Ed ward, enclosed in an oaken casket, was transferred to the throne room Of Buckingham palace. where it rests on a catafalque covered with the same purple pail that enshrouded the cof- fin of Queen Victoria A silken royal ensign has been spread over the pail. Many floral offerings coming from abroad will be deposited in the throne room, where the body will remain un- i'll it's removal to Westminster hall.

BUSINESS OF CONGRESS
 TO PROTECT THE PUBLIC
Against Greed and Avarise of Food
 Manufacturers.

 The court upholds the federal ruling as to bleached flour. but the court does not state whether the Alsop process of bleaching flour is injurious. holding that question to be one for the jury.
 AS to the right of congress 10 en- act the national pure food act, the court said:
 several states within the last few years have enacted pure food statutes, Congress on June 30. 1906. enacted statutes on the question.
 All these statutes were enacted to cure evils well night intolerable. that had grown up during this age of greed and averice and commercialism that has made money getting the prime ob- ject of life with so many.
 Tt was soon found that states Tn some instances were disposed to con done as to some articles of local manu- facture. Thereupon congress. acting upon the theory that it was an evil of national concern, enacted the statute in question.
 Congress is given the power to pro- vide for federal welfare of the United States, but if this legislation is sus- tained 1t is because congress has the power to regulate commerce among the several states"
