Judge Walter Smith, of Iowa, shall re-

Soldiers in Philippines Engage in Tar

Troubles.

Troubles.
Washington, March Git must be
pretty hard to shoot at a target while
snakes are crawling around your legs,
yet that is what bluejackets in the
Philippines have been doing, accord
ing to an official report. Ensign Nor
rison, who conducted target practice at
the naval range at Olongapo says that
it is the most difficult range that can
be imagined, and when the men were
not running thru water ankle deep or
lying down in two inches of soft, red
mud, they were beset with insects and
reptiles, and when the ground was dry
the me-keepers of the skirmish runs
were busy killing snakes that We're
crawling around men lying on the
ground firing at the targets. Three
typhoons also added an element of ex
citement and uncertainty while prac-
tice was going on.

RAILROAD BILL TO GO TO
CONFERENCE THIS WEEK
Long Struggle ever Provisions Of
Taft's Measure is Expected In
Committee


WASHINGTON. May 23.-If the
program of the senate regular Re
publicans goes through, President
Taft's railroad bill will be sent to con
ference committee the latter part OF
this week, and the making OF a new
bill by the committee will begin.
A prolonged struggle over the pro-
visions of the bill is looked for in con-
ference. The big fight will be waged
over the long and short haul clause,
included in the house bill. An over
whelming majority placed this feature
in the house bill and the house con-
ferees are expected to make a strong
fight TO retain It. The senate adopted
weak provision and the senate con-
ferees will be against the house
clause.
A compromise proposing to allow
the present law on the long and short
haul difficulty TO stand until a report
may be obtained from the interstate
commerce committee as to the advisa-
bIlity of altering the law, has been
discussed.
The sections of the house bill relat-
ing to the regulation Of capitalization
by the committee will also cause trou-
BILE The senate has not voted on
these sections.
