BRYCE AUTHORIZED To
SIGN CLAIMS AGREEMENT I
Long Dispute Between United
States and England Ex-
pected to End Soon

LONDON, June 20.-The report that
James Bryce, the British ambassador
at Washington, had been authorized
to sign the British-American pecuni-
airy claims agreement was officially
confirmed by Thomas McKinnon Wood,
under secretary of stateI for foreign
affairs, in the house of commons today.
Mr.. Wood stated that the foreign office
was now in communication with the
state department of the United States
regarding the terms of the agreement.
The signing of the British-American
pecuniary claims agreement marks the
end of the prolonged negotiations. The
last general claims commission was
convened in 1853. 1t dealt with claims
which had arisen since 1872. In the
seventies the civil war claims were dis
posed of. The present negotiations
thus concern claims between the two
governments dating back before 1872,
and with general claims which have
arisen since 1853 In the general arbi-
tration treaty between the United
States and Great Britain, which was
signed in April, 1908, a provision was
made that the treaty would not apply
to existing pecuniary claims.
1t is said to be probable that the
agreement when made public would be
found to have provided for a commits
sion of three persons, which will de-
termine the merits of the various de-
mands.

DECLINES INVITATION To
RIDE WITH PRESIDENT 7
Young Woman Thrown from Her
Horse Refuses Chief Execu-
tive'S Assistance

WASHINGTON, June 20.-That an
invitation from the president is equiva-
lent to a command was disproved by a
young woman yesterday when Mr.. Taft
invited her to take a ride in his auto
mobile. The president, however, did
not feel that he had suffered a rebuff,
as the invitation had been extended
merely in a desire to assist.
Accompanied by his aid, Capt Butt,
the president was taking a spin in his
handsome car. AS they drew near a
young man and woman who were on
horseback, the mount of the latter
stumbled and fell, throwing It's rider.
Capt. Butt sprang from the machine
and ran to her aid, the president being
anxious as to her injuries. He proffered
the use Of his machine, suggesting that
the young woman allow him to send
her home. She declined, saying she
would remount. Capt. Butt and her
escort assisted her back into the saddle
where she swayed dizzily for a mo-
ment.
Again the president rendered the use
of his car, but again the young woman
declined the Offer and presently was
herself again. She and her escort ther
rode off without the president anG

POWER SITE WITHDRAWAL
BILL APPROVED BY TAFT
President Declares He Will Attend
to Valuations in Dispute
Mighty Quick

WASHINGTON, June 20.-President
Taft talked with Representative Hamer
of Idaho and other western senators
and representatives today regarding
the conservation legislation and the
proposed issue of certificates for carry
ing forward reclamation work in the
arid and semi-arid regions.
The bill authorizing executive with
draWal of power sites also is assuming
satisfactory shape and the president
declared that the senate bill met with
his views in every way.
In response to the suggestion of the
conserVationists that the bill might not
be held to validate specifically with
draWals already made, the president
said he would see their valuation
mighty quick"
The amendment of the bill so as not
to exclude mineral entries on lands
withdrawn by the executive meets with
the presidents approval
The president also promised Repre-
sentative Hamer to do what he could
to help along the dry farming bill in
congress, affecting many semi-arid re-
gions of the west, where the winter
rains and SHOWS make it possible to
raise a crop of wheat but where the
elevation of the land is such and the
distance from water is so great as to
make living on the land during the
summer season impossible.

ASSOCIATED Pressl

SAN FRANCISCO, June 20.-Resolu-
tions condemning insurgency and COM
mending the Payne-Aldrich tariff act
caused intense excitement at the meet
ing of the Republican state central
committee held here today, and the
storm had hardly been allayed by their
adoption when a resolution calling on
all the Republican primary candidates
to pledge themselves to support the Re-
publican nominees at the regular cleo
ton precipitated another outburst
A resolution introduced by Chester
Rowell of Fresno calling on the Re
publican primary candidates to pledge
themselves to repudiate any political
connection with the Southern Pacific
railway was laid on the table.
Near the close of the meeting Thomas
Dozier of Shasta attempted to recall
this motion for discussion, but being
unable to secure a motion from anyone
who had voted against it the resolu-
ton remained tabled.
The resolution calling on the pri-
mary candidates to support the Repub-
lican ticket was adopted, but similar
resolution requesting the Republican
legislators to be morally bound by the
advisory vote cast for United States
senator was defeated.
San Francisco was selected as the
place and September the date for
holding the Republican state conven-
ton, at which 428 delegates will be
present, apportioned among the coun-
ties according to the vote cast FOR pres
idential elector U. S. Grant, jr., at the
late presidential election.

First, recommend for your adop-
ton an amendment to the law relat-
ing to primaries, the making of suit
able provision for direct nomination of
candidates for public office and in
connection Herewith provisions for
representative and responsible party
management.
"The people are dissatisfied with ex-
listing conditions and demand
change. Whatever may be said of inn
perfections in the laws relating to this
matter in other jurisdictions, there can
be no question that these laws reflect
a wholesome sentiment which is coun-
try-wide and cannot be denied The
sentiment is that the instrumentalities
of party management shall not be so
arranged as to facilitate the purpose
of those who would subvert govern
ment to their selfish advantage"
In submitting the matter of primary
reform the governor includes whatever
further measures may be found adj
visable to safeguard both primary and
general elections.
The message lays particular stress
on the governors belief that the reso-
luton for an inquiry into corrupt prac-
tees as adopted by the legislature. is
inadequate and unsatisfactory and
says 1t is important to the public in
terest that the authority of the in-
vestigating committee be enlarged. A

Senate and House Agree on Land
Withdrawal Bill

WASHINGTON. June 20.-In per-
formance of its part of the agreement
on the public land withdrawal bill, and
the proposition looking to the issuance
of bonds for the continuation of irri-
cation projects, the senate today de-
cided to reconsider the vote by which
the withdrawal bill was passed and
then eliminated the bond provision.
Before the latter step was taken Mr.
Hepburn said he would agree to the
separation of the two measures on the
understanding that not less than $40,
100000 should be voted at this session
to continue irrigation work.
Mr. Smoot explained that, having
found it impossible to get through the
house a larger bond issue than $50,
100000, the senators interested had
consented to accept that sum, provid-
ing the house would pass an indepen-
dent bill for that amount

Mrs. Garrettson. When the accident
was reported the wife and daughter
were kept in ignorance and when the
daughter became uneasy she was in
formed of the fatality, but the mother
was kept in ignorance.
There was much mystery surround
ing the case and the identity of the
woman was not known until late last
night, when the nephew of the dead
man and the manager of the Hotel
Maryland appeared at the morgue of
Bresee Bros. and consented to give out
the name of the woman. The bodies
will be embalmed and probably will be
sent to oregon for burial.
Late last night Mrs. Gilmore was re-
ported to be in a serious condition
and the physicians are reported as say
ing she will not live long.
The bodies of the victims are at the
morgue of Bresee Bros. and the coro-
ner will hold an inquest to determine
the responsibility for the accident.

for a Year
fAssoclated pressl

WASHINGTON, June 20.-The con-
ferees on the naval appropriation bill
completed their work today and their
Chairman Foss of the house committee.
This bill makes provision for the con-
struction of two battleships to cost eX-
elusive of armor and armament, not
exceeding S6000,000 each. This item,
however, was not in dispute between
the two houses, but the senate adopted
amendments to provide for the con-
struction of torpedo boat destroyers
torpedo boats and other naval vessels
of small type.
1t was proposed by the senate to con-
struct five submarine torpedo boats,
but this number was reduced to four
as provided by the house. They will
cost $500, 900 each.
SIX DEsTROYERS
Provision by the senate for the con-
struction of six torpedo boat destroyers
of the highest practical speed, and the
cost not to exceed $3.50, 900 each, was re-
tained by the conferees. =
Another senate provision to approS
pirate S445000 for the purchase of tor
pedo boats, with their vitals located
below the normal water line, was re-
tained by the conferees.
The secretary of the navy is given
discretion to use the latter appropria-
tion for the purchase or construction
of small vessels of this type, having a
speed exceeding nineteen knots and
costing not to exceed 100000 each.
ONE COLLIER
The conferees also adopted a senate
amendment providing for the construc-
ton of one fleet collier on the Pacific
coast For that purpose the unex-
pended balance of a former appropria-
| ton will be used.
Secretary Meyer was given authority,
under a redraft of a senate amendment,
to abolish the bureau of equipment in
/ the navy department and to distribute
the work of that bureau among other
/ existing bureaus.
Authority to take action however,
was given for one year and was in
| tended as a test of the secretary's re-
organization scheme. There was con-
| siderable opposition to this amendment
by staff officers Of the navy, and the
amendment adopted by the conferees
was victory for the secretary.
