CITY COUNCIL

The City Council was in session two
hours last night. Most Of the business
transacted was OF general nature. The
report of the special committee APP
pointed at previous meeting to inyes-
tigate the candle power OF the electric
lights furnished the city by the Alexan-
dria Electric Company was presented.
The report brought about discussion in
both boards. 1t was finally adopted
after having been amended. The re-
port will be found in full in the officia !
proceedings. After setting forth that
the company if not furnishing the
candle power lights contracted for by
the city, the committee recommended
that the auditor withhold fifty per cent.
Of the amount at present paid monthly
by the city to the company, and that
measures be instituted looking to a re-
covery by the city to the amount
due by reason of the unsatisfactory light
furnished. These recommendations
we're eliminated before adoption and
rccommittcd. The cOnccnsuS OF opln-
ion seemed to be that the company
should have had Il chance TO be heard
by the Investigating committee before
Council acted finally in the matter. 1t
appears that the company's SIDE has
not been heard.

MYSTERY
Porter Charlton, Husband of the MUIR
dered Woman, Believed to be OH Route
for New York.

Como, Italy, June l5.-Thc author
tiles are today convinced that Porter
Charlton, the husband of murdered
Mary Scott Castle Charlton, sailed for
New York, on either the Italian
Steam Navigation Company's steamer
Verona, which left Genoa for New
York on June S, or the Italian Lloyd
steamer Virginia, which sailed from
Genoa on June 8. They have sent
wireless messages to both these vessels
requesting their captain not to permit
any passengers corresponding to the
description of Charlton to escape with
out thorough investigation.
Mrs. Charlton was murdered, 1t Is
now believed, on June 9th. Her body
was not discovered until June 10, so
that Charlton could easily have sailed
on either of the vessels mentioned with
out arousing the least suspicion.
The Italian police have completely
abandoned the theory that Charlton
may have been murdered along with
his wife.
The hope of finding solution
of the mystery in Constantine Ispola-
toff, the Russian suspect, has practl-
c:,lly been abandoned, and it is prob
able that he will he released within a
few days. His release is demanded by
the Russian consul. ~

61ST. CONGRESS
SENATE.

Criticism OF several features of the
conference report as agreed TO by the
majority, was made in a minority re-
port submitted to the Senate today by
Senator Newlands, democratic mem
Der of the conference committee. He
condemns the action OF the republican
majority Of the committee in excluding
the democratic members from It's con-
fcrcnccs until the work had been con-
cluded. 1t is true" he says, that
this has been customary with both
parties regarding the tariff; but it is
pernicious practice which ought to be
restricted, not enlarged. 1t constitutes
denial of the rights OF the minority.
He contended that the transfer OF
circuit Judge to the commerce court
would be a violation OF his life tenure
OF office and unconstitutional. "
Mr.. Newlands contends that a ply
steal valuation section should have
been included in the bill.
The conservation bill was taken up
in the Senate today Immediately after
Tie TOullllG DliSlllcSS' iiic l'Nhbh'S
amendment was the bill, heretofore

by the House, authorizing the issue of
$50, 900, 900 in certificates of indebted
ness, bearing 3 per cent and redeem
able in gold, the money to be used
in completing all reclamation projects.
The amendment was adoptcd-3l
ayes, = noes.
Senator Dixon offered the NewlandS
bill as an amendment. 1t authorizes
the president to appoint commission
OF Is members, to serve OH salaries to
investigate the entire question OF con-
serving the natural resources OF the
nation. An appropriation of $50, 600
is made to meet the expenses OF the
commission.
The plan was explained at some
length by Mr.. Dixon.
Senator Nelson moved to table the
amendments which was carried 81 yeas,
10 nays.
