shooting is thought to have taken
place near the southern limits of the
city or outside. although there are
several opinions as TO where II took
place. Taylor aud Wood we're seen

giving Taylor temporary attention he

his mind after he got well.
Wood refused to make any state

mitted being in company with Tay-
Tor, but said he knew nothing of the
shooting An investigation has be-

down the story of Constatin Ispo-al

Italian police are divided in their
views about the crime The chief
of police of Como and United States
Consul Caughty believe Charlton
also was murdered. The former
says reports of different places hav-
ing seen Charlton are misleading
and probably part of the plot. The
statement of a druggist at Cernobbio
that he lent a pair of brass knucks
to Ispolatoff is expected to bring out
startling developments. but the Rus
sian failed to show embarrassment
when confronted with the evidence.
Police say it is possible the wounds
on Mrs. Charlton's head could have
been caused by "knucks."

general impression seems to be that
nothing will be done at the present

a Jockey. who was found on the
Pool road in Littlesville Sunday
morning, April 10. with his head

last Friday night.
Farren is 20 years old and lives
at 643 Elizab beth street. He drove
an express wagon and generally
hung around Second street and Ken

place. A short time ago he got
divorce from Nellie Farren. He is
the son OF Charles Farren, who was
killed several years ago in a railroad
wreck. Mrs. Kate Farren is his
step-mother and Mrs. Walter Clark
is lis sister. He inherited several
hundred dollars from the estate of
his grandmother, Mrs. Annie Mills.

Adjournment I'm Sight.

Washington, June 13.-The com
mittee on the administration rail-
road bill was in session more than
six hours and made such progress
as led them to predict that they will
be able to report to congress early
this week, probably not later than
Wednesday.
In the tentative draft that has
been made up from the bills as they
were passed by the house and sem
ate. the only two questions that re-
main In serious dispute are those
relating to long and short hauls and
the period that Increases in rates
should be suspended to give the in
terstate commerce commission time
to pass upon their reasonableness.
With an agreement on the rail-
road bill in sight, the members Of
congress are beginning to figure on
adjournment. Few members of either
branch now expect the session to
last longer than Thursday, June 80,
and not a few have put their guesses
as early as Saturday. June %. Some
of the employees of the committee
on appropriations have consulted
their records and found that the
long sessions usually arjourn in
about fifteen days after the report
ing of the general deficiency bill,
the last of the great supply meas
ures. To this calculation was due
in large part the predictions that
the session would end on the last
day of next week.
Much to BE Done.
There are not many matters of
legislation remaining which are ex-
pected TO consume much time. A
canvass of the senate indicated a
decided sentiment in favor of adopt
ing the house amendmsnts to the
postal savings bank bill. This course
would avoid a conference and might
easily save two or three days. The
sundry civil bill probably will be
passed by the senate, and the gen.
eral deficiency bill never is held up
long in the senate.
The bill to authorize the president
to withdraw public lands for con-
servation purposes is the only one
of the conservation measures slated
to go through this session. To that
will be added. it is expected, the
bill which has already passed the
senate. to permit the issuance of
certificates of Indebtedness to the
amount of $S0,OOO,00O to complete
reclamation projects. 1t ought not
to require more than a week to
complete this bill.
The opposition to the conserya-
tion bill, based upon the statement
issued by former Forester Clifford
Pinchot that it contains a clause
which would authorize the filing of
mineral claims on certain water
power sites known to be underlaid
with minerals. apparently has not
been generally accepted as a serious
criticism.
