Governor Haskell and Adjutant Can.
ton Had Bitter Quarrel.

Guthrie, Okla. April 9.-As the re-
suit of quarrel here last night with
Gov. Charles n. Haskell in the lat
ters apartments, concerning which
the statements are conflicting, Ad-
jutant Canton of the Oklahoma ma
tion9l guard resigned today. A re-
volver was taken from General Can
ton during the row when mutual
friends interfered. Canton declares,
however. he did not draw the weapon
and had no intention of trying to in
jure the governor.
Governor Haskell stated he would
allow the officer to retire.
Isn't drunkenness enough reason
for accepting the resignation" he
asked when pressed for a statement
regarding the disagreement. Further
than that he would not discuss the
affairs.
General Canton was more commune
cative. Il went peaceable to the gov
ernor's apartment to talk things over" J"
he said. Il did not try to draw my re-
volver as reported, although l carry
sue ha weapon as part of my duties.
Far from trying to injure the governor
l have saved him several times from
being hurt"
Despite the efforts of friends to es-
tablish peace. Chief of Police Mitch
ell said today that General Canton
would be arrested on charges of dis
turbing the peace and carrying con-
cealed weapons. Governor Haskell de-
clined to reply when asked If he sane
toned this latter phase Of the trouble.

Mrs. Ridsdale described him In this
way:
Just one nerve-composed of one

Dominance little tense, five foot
rapid firing gun. with a cigar
instead Of a ramfod, always trained
on the enemy, splitting bullets by the
thousand, each one finding its billet

And again: BE something" is
Speaker Cannon's slogan. "He is no
'Tomlinson' whose lack of individu-
ality barred him from the right to a
place either in heaven or hell. Uncle
Joe's' supporters say he's all white
his foes declare him unrelieved black.
He Elay be either or both, but not

ALLEGED SMUGG[ER
CAUGHT At GRETNA
Four Carloads of Supposed Set.
tiers Effects Seized by Gus
toms Officials

Winnipeg, April 9.-The Dominion
custom officials at Gretna yesterday
pulled off the biggest seizure of goods
in the history of that port. Four
carloads of alleged settlers effects
are now in their hands. and though
they have not yet made a full esti-
mate of the value of the seizure. It
is expected that it will run into thou
sands Of dollars. The goods are now
being examined and appraised by the
officials, task which will take some
time, and which involves q consid-
cradle amount of labor.
A man named Ernstein presented
the four cars of goods for entry into
Canada as effects, but on examination
the officers found that instead Of their
filling the requirements of the act~
they were all practically new goods.
Not only this. but taken as a whole
they were goods which would find q
ready sale among the settlers of the
west. The seizure came through
Ernstein declaring that the only new
goods in the cars were a tanning mill
and a buggy on which he was pre-
pared to pay duty.
The officers made an examination
and found that in addition to the mill
and buggy. there were new wagons.
seed drills, plows, live stock, dry
goods. heavy hardware. and q gaso-
line motor. none of which it is claim
ed, filled the six months ownership
clause. The seizure was made on q
charge of fraudulent entry.
ErnStein at first aftonrntod "a A.
cape the officers. and in his subse-
quent explanations he become very
much involved. A guard has been
placed on the goods, which were ship
ped from Duluth, and rough esti-
mate has placed their value at $4,000.
William Conolly, inspector Of ports
for the customs department, left yes,
terday for the boundary and will
probably look after the disposal of
the seizure.

Rome, April 9.-The vatican-Roose.
velt incident is still causing an ami
mated discussion between the par.
tisans. The party which has rallied
to the support of Cardinal Merry Del
Val insists that it matters not what
consequences may ensue, any other
outcome would be better than to have
exposed the pope to humiliation, as
would have been the case had Mr..
Roosevelt visited the pontiff and later
called upon the Methodists simply to
demonstrate that he could not be
treated as was former Vice President
Fairbanks.
The faction hostile to the papal sec.
retary's attitude asks what the vati-
can would think of next autumn when
Cardinal Vincenzo Vannutelli, after
attending the Eucharistic congress at
Montreal should, upon going to the
United States. be asked to dine with
President Taft on the condition that
he would not visit the apostolic mis-
sion in Washington directed by Mon
signore A. P. Doyle, and which mis-
sion, like that of the Methodists in
Rome, is engaged in converting per.
sons to the fa1th IT represents.
Missed Rain.
Genoa, April 9.-Col. and Mrs.
Roosevelt had cause to be glad today
that the crowds encountered had
forced them to abandon their carriage
drive yesterday, for since morning the
rain has fallen in torrents, and had
the two not reached here last night
they would have had difficulty in get
ting through today. This afternoon
they will leave for. Porto Maurizio,
where Kermit and Miss Ethel are due
to arrive tonight. The former presi-
dent and Mrs. Roosevelt spent the
morning hours visiting the art gal
leries, the old palace of doges and
other places of interest. To escape a
wetting they used closed automobile
placed at their disposal by American
Consular Agent Smith.

SPRINGFIELD, ILL.,, March 3.-The
extraordinary session of the Illinois
legislature adjourned sine die at 8
O'Clock last night. 1t ended with a
spectacular struggle over the commits
sion form OF municipal government
bill, which survives and goes to the
governor in a peculiar way After the
house again refused to adopt the con-
ference report, and after the lower
house had named a second conference
committee, the senate took the BUN by
the horns, receded from the senate
amendments to the house commission
bill and, sweeping aside all confer
ence action entirely, handed the house
bill No. 43 over to Governor Deneen
for his signature.
The measure, which is thus dragged
from the wreck of defeated reform
bills advocated by the governor is not
entirely satisfactory to its friends. In
fact, Senator John Daley of Peoria

to Quit.
is A CITY ORDINANCE
John F. MCGEE, Who is a Nearby
Neishhor Does Not Want to
Live Next to Slaughter
is A CITY ORDINANCE

Acting on the complaint of John Nc
Gee members of the board of health
made a trip late yesterday afternoon
to the slaughter house that is being
maintained by Erhart Bros. at 1901
High street, and before leaving ser.
we'd upon the firm three days notice
to quit killing cattle. Mr.. MCGEE,
the complainant, lives at 1907 High.
The city ordinances make it mis-
demeanor to kill within the city limits,
providing that in so doing nuisance
is maintained The slaughter house
| in question is in the residence por
tion of the city, but the members OF
the board were loud in their praise fol
the manner in which it was being
conducted. One member said that II
was the cleanest place of that kind
he had ever visited. while the physl
clan to the board also spoke highly
of the conditions. Thus the firm vii
have to cease killing cattle within
three days.
IF complaints were made by citi
zens," said one member of the boar'
today, "every butcher shop in the cit,
could be declared a nuisance an
there are also several manufacture a
concerns that just protests could b
filed against"
Il deem the ordinance one tina
should be revoked. he continued
Such matters should be left to tn
judgment of the city council"
1t seems as though the greater pal
of the complaint against Erhart Bro
might be conferred in the fact that du
ing the summer months cattle woul
be yarded in the rear, being nui
ance to neighbors and nearby res
dents.
