BAILEY SPEAKS|N THE NICK OF TIME Reciprocity Almost Comes

OPPONENTS MAPPING

Washington, July 11.-Only the inter- position of a three-hour speech by Sem ator Bailey of Texas and the submission of one of his amendments to the Cana dian reciprocity bill prevented that meas ure from coming to a final passage in the Senate today. The opponents of the bill were caught mapping by the Senate against the measure and no amendments ready to be offered. Senator Bailey, the chief democratic opponent, finally was forced to take the floor and offer his amendment to attach the farmers free list, recently passed by the House, to the reciprocity measure. His amendment, which was not voted on, omitted the agricultural provisions of the free list bill.
 q have been holding the floor this aft ernoon." Mir. Bailey finally admitted, be cause I promised the senator from Wis consin (Mr LaFollette) that I would not let the bill come to vote until he can get ready to speak
 Chairman Penrose and other leaders who are pushing the bill through held the Senate in session until 7:15 p. m. From now on the Senate will be in session until o'clock or later and all efforts for de- lay will be drowned upon. This is ex- pected to force the opponents of the measure to hasten their speeches and the presentation of their amendments.
 Senator Penrose tonight predicted that a vote on the passage of the bill would be reached next week.
 Senator LaFollette's long speech is ex- pected any time after tomorrow. He will ask for day after introducing his amend ments which expects will be tomorrow or Thursday. Meantime his friends will try to prevent a vote until he can be pre- pared. Senators Bristow and Boran may speak tomorrow.
 An attempt to secure an agreement to vote on the Canadian reciprocity July 19. the free list bill July p, and the wool tariff bill July 21, was made in the Sen ate today by Senator Watson of West Virginia The motion was lost on ob- lection by Senator Cummins.

ON CLOSING
 NAVY YARD ASKED

Washington, July 11.-(Special. .)-Senator Fletcher of Florida today introduced resolution calling upon the Secretary of the Navy for report on operations and recent orders in reference to the navy yard at Pensacola. The resolution was prompted by recent orders and were which seem to indicate plan of aban- doning or closing the plant. MT. Fletcher reviews the history of the navy yard, showing its esta blishment in 1924 and that it has cost up to date SIP 2,2l7, H311. MT. Fletcher served notice that he and his colleagues would discuss the resolution further at another time.
 The protests of the people of Pensacola and New Orleans, made through their congressman, against the gradual cessa- tion of naval work in the navy yards at those places have been without avail. The navy department has decided to ad- here to the original orders of Secretary Meyer, issued with a view to reducing the naval expenses and eliminating what he regarded as unnecessary naval sta- tions.

MAY MODIFY ANGLO- JAPANESE TREATY Anglo American Arbitra-
 tion Is Cause NEGOTIATIONS ARE ON Great Britain Wishes Modification of Mutual Assistance Clause-Of-
 ficials at Wsshingtoa
 Not Informed
NEGOTIATIONS ARE ON

Tokio, July 11.-A revision of the Anglo Japanese alliance is regarded as the in- cvitable outcome of the Anglo-American arbitration treaty. There is reason 10 be- lieve that negotiations for such a re- vision have been going on for several weeks. It is said Great Britain proposed to modify the clause providing for mutual assistance in the event of war making the provision inapplicable in the event that either party to the alliance Is fight ing a nation with whom the other has concluded a general arbitration treaty.
 It is understood Japan readily agreed to this proposition and the Associated Press is informed that the readiness of the Japanese government to accept the sug- gcstion was due to its entire confidence that Japan would never be at war with either the United States or England. The revision probably would involve the ex- tension of the term of the treaty alliance for 15 or 20 years.
 Washington. July 1l.-While attaching full credence to the reports emanating from Tollio and London that the Japanese and British governments are modifying their treaty of alliance to conform with conditions which will exist upon the rat ifil ation of the Anglo-American general arbitration treaty, the Japanese embassy here professes to have no confirmatory advices.
 The state department also is in the dark but Secretary Knox confidently expects that the Anglo American arbitration treaty, by it's indirect effect upon other conventions by the great powers will tend powerfully to impress upon other nations the expediency of making a sim liar treaty with the United States.
 There is an expectation at the state de- partment that the return home of Ambas- sa6or Jusserand will bring about speedy action by France and that Germany Will show more than an academic interest in the subject when Ambassador Non Bern- storff, whose doubts regarding the arbi- tration proposal have been removed, per sonally brings the matter before the Ger man foreign office.

All Information Concerning Controller Bay Will Be
 Provided
CABINET HOLDS A
 LONG DISCUSSION
All Documentary Evidence Will Be Turned Over To Senate Miss Abbott Will Testify
 Today

Washington. July 1t.-Alphough many denials have been made that government officials intended to permit the Guggen- heip interests to control Alaskan trans- portation through a monopoly on the wa ter frcnt of Controller bay, In that ter ritory, the administration has decided to let Congress reach its own conclusions and every scrap of information relating to the matter will be sent to the Senate as soon as possible.
 Wbile President Taft and the members ot his cabinet have voiced the opinion that an investigation will show nothing even remotely resembling such an attempt to favor the Guggenheims' interests, an attempt in which the names of Charles P. Taft, the Presidents brother, and for- mer Secretary of the Interior Ballinger have been coupled-they are determined that every effort should be made to clear thee situation.
 At the regular session of the cabinet today the affair was discussed at length. It was decided that all the departments intere sted-war, agriculture, interior ana commerce and labor-should be urged to make their reports on the case as quickly as possible. 1t was stated today that all the documentary evidence in the case probably will be. In the Presidents hands early next week and that then 1t will be sent immediately 10 the Senate in answer to a resolution calling for all such in- foi nation.
 Although in response to this Senate resolution the documents will go to that body, the House committee on expendi- lures in the interior department, which has started an investigation of Its own, may examine them If it desires.

Miss Abbott's Story Today

Washington is awaiting with much in terest the story to be told tomorrow be- fore the House committee on expenditures in the interior department by Miss Alp bott who claims to have copied from the files of the interior department letter from Richard S. Ryan to the then Sec retary Richard A. Ballinger, showing that Ryan soraht tic aid Of Charles P. Tart in securing President Taft's approval of the opening of the water front on Con- troller Bay, Alaska. The committee was not in session today.
 Up to this time Miss Abbott appears to have been the only person to have seen the mysterious letter. Secretary Fisher has said that a thorough search of the department files failed to reveal such a letter. President Taft has stated that he has never talked with his brother about Ryan and Controller Bay, and it is an- nounced neither the files at the White House nor those in the office of Charles F. Taft show any correspondence on the subject

Brown Makes Denial

 Dear Dick-I went to see the President the other day about this Controller Bay affair The President asked me whom represented. I told him according to our agreement that I represented myself, but that did not seem to satisfy him, so sent for Charlie Taft and asked him to tell his brother whom I represented The President made no further objection to my claims Yours, 'DICK."
 Some of the Witnesses
 A list of witnesses made up late today by the committee conducting the inquiry is said to include the following:
 Charles P Taft. brother to the Pres ident; Daniel Guggenhem, head of the Alaskan syndicate: Frank H. Hitchcock. postmaster general; Walter l.. Fisher, Secretary of the Interior; Richard s. Ryan, the alleged promoter, and a large number of land office clerks.

According to the newspaper ac-
counts that was shockingly brutal
murder in the streets of Union Sat
urday night when the two Mays
brothers stabbed and then shot a
young white man to death. The
murder seems to have been without
provocation, and the fact that the
young man begged piteously for his
life after he had been mortally
wounded and his appeals were not
needed by his slayers who contin-
led to perforate his body with bull
lets while he was lying PROSTATE up
on the ground makes it one of the
most brutal and revolving crimes in
the history of the State. OF course
the assassins will go into court with
the plea of self-defense, although
10 weapons were found on their
VICTIM s body, and there will be
no end of witnesses who will swear
that their lives were in Imminent
danger" The dead man cannot

tiles and we believe that a couple
OF active and yigilent rural police
men would more than earn the sal
airy they would receive from the
county. The speeding OF automo-
biles and the reckless discharge of
firearms on the public highways
are two nuisances that should be
abated, and the only way to get af-
ter such offenders is to patrol the
highways with mounted officers.
We believe we voice the sentiment
Ot two-thirds Of the tax payers of
the county in recommending to
the county commissioners the
of rural policemen and
we should be glad to see the board
take the matter up at its next meet
