SENATE WILL NOW TACKLE ITS OWN
 RAILROAD BILL
House Version of Measure to Rest in Pigeon Hole and Con ference to Concur in Three
 Weeks.
Special from United Press. )


 Washington, May 11.-Senators were serenely about the work of fix ing up the railroad bill today despite the fact that the House with much contention and heavy labor passed a measure on the same subject yester- day. Senators, we'll aware of the fact that the shooting up of the bill in the House has been from angles diff ferent from those employed in the Senate, will indulge themselves only in grim smiles when they hear off, Ncially that the House asks their "con- currence."
 The House version of the bill will be referred to the Senate Committee on Interstate Commerce. The com mittee most likely will let it rest in pigeon hole. The Senate bill has been about completed. Then the commit tee will, in all probability, recon, mend that the Senate bill be adopted as a substitute, and the Senate will follow the recommendation.
 The Senate bill will be sent to the House for concurrence. The House will refuse to concur and will ask for a conference, which will take place without further delay. A conference licans and one Democrat from each branch of Congress '"The prediction when we began work on the railroad bill," said Senator today, twas that we would reach a final vote in three weeks. Every prediction since that time has been the same and when you ask me now how long it will be before the vote is taken I can do no better than to repeat three week.
 The debate on the Hong and short haul' clause in the Senate will prob ably consume the greater part or all of this week. Then there will be contention over the sections designed to authorize the interstate commerce commission to regulate the issue of stocks and bonds by railroads and number of small troublesome amend mentS.
 The House eliminated two sections under certain conditions, to consoli- date and to enter into rate agree mentS.
 In the Senate, so far, these same sections have not been amended.

Especial from United Press,

Washington. May 11.-That there is at least striking similarity" be- tween the memorandum prepared by Oscar Lawler. assistant attorney gen. eral for the Interior Department, and President Taft's finding" in the Bal finger case, is the contention of At torney Brandeis, counsel for Glavis.

Cunard Liner Battered
 And One Swept Overheard
Special from United Press.)

O T
 New York, May 11.-Battered by a terrific sea which carried away a portion of the forward deckhouse and bridge, the Cunard liner Caronia lost one seaman Monday night while sev- eral others were badly hurt. When the vessel made port today, repairs had not been made to the bridge and huge splinters and broken timbers indicated the force of the sea. The gale blew from the northwest for many hours until noon yesterday al- though the Caronia was never in danger. The man lost, seaman named Hill, was one of the men who was making fast the lashings on deck fixtures when wave swept the ves- sel. He was carried overheard but his more unfortunate fellows brought up against rail and were able to hold on until the wall of water passed.

OBITUARY.

James Munroe Dain was born
in the state of Maine on the 22nd
day Of April, 1884 liz moved
from that state when twenty years
Of age and located in the city of
Argyle, Wis. On March "a, 1856
he married Miss P. E. Oviatt. 1t
was while living here that the aoun.
try's call came for men to preserve
the Union. MIR. Dain with other
loyal men from that state enlisted
In his country's service. After the
war was over he returned to Ar.
Igyle where be engaged in wood
work, especially the manufacture
of buggies and wagons. In 1884
MIR. Dain and his wife decided to
come west and moved from Argyle
to Scotland where he has made his
home ever since. His first years
here were spent in carpenter work
but as he became older he retired
from active employment.
On April 20, 1892 his first wife
died, and on the oath day of De-
cember, 1895 he married Christina
Railway. No children were born
to him of either marriage.
Over six weeks ago MIR. ~Dain
was taken sick. The difficulty
seemed to be merely a shortness of
breath but for some reason it did
not give way to treatment. While
there could not be said to be actual
pain yet there was great distress.
About three weeks ago DIR. Gross
of Yaukton was called in consulta-
ton and tie malady was diagnosed
as nervous dyspepsia. A course
of treatment was hegun which re-
moved the distress of breathing.
But the appetite failed ana his sys-
tenn had not the strength and vi
tality to restore normal functions
and he gradually failed day after
day. Last Saturday morning in
dications we're observed showing
that the end could not be far off
and on Monday evening at 9:45
O'Clock he passed away. There
survive him only the widow and
possibly a brother still living in the
state of Maine. To his widow there
goes out the sympathy of the en-
tire community in her sad and
lonely hour.
Mr.. Dain joined the Masonic
order before leaving Wisconsin.
After coming here he joined the
Scotland order and was a faithful
and consistent member. The Ma.
sons took charge of the funeral,
the services being held Tuesday
afternoon at the house. After the
opening a short address was given
by Rev. Wilcox and then the SER
vices were concluded at the GENE.
