Still WORRYING.


The experts are now dealing In an
incredulous spirit with the signatures
supposed to be Shakespeare's. Sir e.
burning .Lawrence disputes the gen
uineness Of all Ave. What he has to
say on the occurrences of the name
in the will is curious. He finds the
three very dissimilar. The "W's" are
all three differently shaped; the "S's"
there are only two-are different
also; the "h" in one case begins at the
top and in the other at the bottom.
which Is also the case with the fol
lowing IA" while the 'k'' and the IS"
are as widely unlike as possible.
What" he asks, could have In
duced a man who really signed his
name to his last testament to play
tricks with the first letter of his
Christian name And his contention
is that the clerk who drafted the will
wrote the names and varied the forms
of the letters to indicate they were
not autographs. The argument seems
not unreasonable, for 1t more likely
that clerk writing another mans
name should vary In the writing of 1t
than one should who was writing his
| own.

GOVERNMENT OF DAvILLA
is TOTTERING
United States Likely to Interfere In
Honduran Squabble.

Washington, Feb. 3.-The govern.
ment of President Davila Of Honduras,
in the opinion of the government is
tottering. Upon the arrival of General
Bonilla at Puerto Cortez, the United
States will tender its good offices to
the revolutionary commander in an eff.
fort to bring about cessation Of the in
ternal strife in Honduras.
President Dayila, already has init.
mated that the friendly Intervention Of
the United States would be welcomed
in order to avoid useless bloodshed.
The American government consequent
ly will express its willingness to both
parties to exert its good offices in re.
establishing peace. The commander of
tender the mediation of the United
States to General Bonilla when he ar
rives at Puerto Cortez, which has been
evacuated by the government forces,
The rejection by the Honduras con
gress of the plan for the rehabilitation
of that countrys finances, through a
syndicate having the approval of the
| United States government, may have
an important bearing on the situation
in the republic. President Davila is
known to have favored the loan ar.
rangement and his failure to have the
convention authorizing the sum rati
fled suggests the possible insecurity
OF his administration.
The rebellion led by Former Presi
dent Bonila has made considerable
progress, but all recent advices from
Tegucigalpa had indicated that con
gress was loyal to the national execu
tive.

RECIPROCITY
The GREAT TOPIC
Washington Still Astir Over
Absorbing Canadian Question
Which May Mean Extra
Session

Washington. Feb. 6.-(SpeciaD -
Canadian reciprocity continue to
hold its place on the absorbing topic
of consideration in Congress and
with the public. The efforts Of Re-
publican leaders to suppress the agi
tation by asserting that there will
be no time for consideration by this
Congress have utterly failed. Presi-
dent Taft rejects this suggestion and
sturdily insists that the question be
brought to a vote. AS an evidence of
his fixed purpose the President had
Mccall of Massachusetts, a friend of
the measure introduce bill in the
House embracing the reciprocity
agreement. He was not willing to en-
trust the cause he holds so important
to Payne, the regular Republican lead
er who is known to be hostile, though
he has not ventured to openly declare
his oDpce tion. rhe commercial organ
isations ~ the states are rallying to
the support of the president with
resolutions endorsing the agreement
and demanding vote. Not only are
the towns and cities declaring for
the ratification of the agreement, but
many country districts are coming TO
the front in it's behalf. If this meas
ure should fail, President Taft 1t is
believed, will call an extra session OF
Congress and then the whole tariff
question will be open for considera
tion--a situation that is extremely
embarrassing to the beneficiaries OF
the Payne-Aldrieh bill.

Election lnvalidated.

Mr.. Root reached the conclusion
that. deducting the seven votes, Mr..
Lorimer had been left without a ma
jority. a fact which, he said, "invali-
dated his election"
This was equally true, he said,
whether the corruption fund had been
used either to increase Lorimer's vote
or to reduce to total vote.
The conclusion of Mr.. Roots speech
was marked by an unusual scene.
Mr.. Hale took the floor and plead
ed for reply to the New York sena-
tors speech. Saying that the Senate
| could not be comfortable while Mr..
Root was making his powerful argu-
ment," and confirming that he HIM
self had not been, he said he had
been impressed with the seriousness
OF the situation.
Mr.. Bailey said that If Mr.. Roots
doctrine was to be followed, it would
be found that there had not been a
question of much speculation, and so
high is the esteem in which his opin-
ion is held that it is known several
members of the Senate have held in
allegiance their own opinions until
they could hear from him.
In the main his address consisted
of careful analysis OF the testimony
ia. IN by the committee. The argu-
ment was almost entirely legal.
Mr.. Root lost little time in indicat-
ing the conclusion he had reached,
which was entirely antagonists to Mr..
Lorimer. He took the position that
the investigating committee had been
at fault in permitting either the at,
torney for Mr. .Lorimer or the attor-
ney for the Chicago Tribune to direct
its course'in the matter of connecting
Mr.. Lorlmer with the corruption of
members of the Illinois legislature.
but agreed that, even in the face of
its fault in this respect, the commit,

effectually to faint or invalidate the

ROOT SCORES
Sen. LORIMER
Declares His Election A Blot
on Name Of Illinois, And
Leads Fight Against
Senator

Washington, Feb. 3.--Senator Root
of New York today leaped to posi-.
ton of leadership among the anti
Lorimer forces in the Senate and
caused the case temporarily to be
lifted above the attack upon the in.
dividual so as to place blotch upon
, the name of Illinois.
Hale pleaded with tremulous voice for
some friend Of the state. and he sug.
gested Senator Cullom, to make a re.
ply to Mr. Roots speech, which would
exonerate, not Lorimer, but Illinois.
81 refuse to believe that so great
people are rotten to the core" said
Senator Bailey of Texas. IF we are
| to try senators on the general miscon.
| duct of legislators, then the senator
whose right is challenged now is not
the only one who must yield his seat
His colleague, Mr.. Cullom, was ell
ected by one of those legislatures and
mp man here believes he was a party
to any of those evil practices; but
of Cullom."
| Senator Lorimer had numerous de
tenders who replied to the attack up
on him and the method of his cleo
ton. Chief among them was Senator
Hepburn of Idaho, member of the
Lorimer investigating committee, whit
charged that some person had en-
tered into the attack upon Lorimer II
the spirit of manhunt.
Took Advanced Ground.
Mr.. Root began his speech soon af
ter the Senate convened, without hav
ing previously announced what hi
position was to be. Before he had pro
ceeded far it developed he went be
You'd the position of others who hav,
condemned the election of Lorimer a
having been accomplished by bribery
He dismissed as immaterial the col
troversy over the question of eliminat
ing the seven alleged tainted vote
from the total vote on joint ballot, q
well as from the number received b
Lorimer.
The rottenness shown by the test
mony, contended Mr. Root was suff
cient to invalidate the election of Lol
inner, and he asserted that all of tn
following of ONeill Browne the De
mocratic leader in the Illinois Assem-
bly,, was corrupt and the votes O
that following should have been elm
mated.
