President Taft Keeps Busy at
Beverly at His Desk or on
the Links.
DISAPPOINTED OVER
ACTION OF THE SENATE
Intends to Return to asIling-
ton to Fight for Arbitra-
tiOn Treaties.
BY Associated Press

BY Associated Press.
BEVERLY, Mass, Aug l2.-Pres-
ident Taft was -keenly disappointed to-
day to learn that the senate foreign
relations committee had decided to put
the knife to the British and French
general arbitration treaties and to re.
port them TO the senate in modified
form.
In spite of the disappointment he
felt over the changes in the treaties,
which indicate the probability that
they they must 90 over to the next ses.
sion, the president intends to keep up
his fight to have the pacts accepted
in full. Already he has lined up many
senators friendly to the administration,
and when he returns to Washington on
Monday he will continue his campaign,
1t was admitted here tonight that If
the senate insisted upon putting
through the treaty in modified form a
reopening of negotiations with Great
Britain and France probably would be
necessary. Steps looking TO such a re-
sumption of negotiations are not con.
templated by the president at this time,
but it is probably that he will take the
matter up with Secretary Knox next
week
The president spent part of today at
his desk in the Taft cottage looking
over information which he expects to
use on his return to Washington in
writing veto messages.
1t is pretty clearly understood that
the statehood bill, the wool revision bill
and probably the farmers free list will
feel the weight Of executive disappro
val. Tt is known that the compromise
reached by the senate and house con-
ferees on the wool bill is not satisfac.
tory to the president and it is known
that the statehood bill providing for
the recall of Judges, so far as Arizona
is concerned, is not to his liking, but
at present his position with regard to
the free list bill is less apparent, In
dications, however, point to a veto Of
this bill also.
To callers today the president de.
clared that while he hoped to be able
to visit California on his trip this fall,
he had made no definite engagements
that would take him that far west. On
the early adjournment of congress his
plans for that trip all hinges.
With Major Butt the, president
played golf for several hours this morn
ing. In the afternoon he worked in his
study and tonight took long motor
ride. Fifteen minutes after he left
Beverly n rumor reached here, appsr-
emily from New York, that he had met
with an accident. 1t reached the sum-
mer White House just as the president,
looking sun burned and bright.e eyed, sat
down to dinner.

the men In the darkness drew his gun
and shot four times at them. three of
the bullets taking effect. One went
through Cooks heart, the other two
striking Ereelaud in the head and
chest. Burnett then ran up the tracks,
where he met Patrolmap Bonner, who
went TO the scene OF the shooting
HI've just shot couple OF car
thieves,' he said.
The two men then went back and
looked at the bodies. When Burnett
saw who the men were that he had
shot, be broke down.
O'Connor took him to the fourth
precinct station, where he was locked
up In telling his story Burnett said: /:
'EI was walking down the tracks and
had just examined car when the two
men sprang out on me. fought them
off and stepped back. They came at ME
again, saying:

with either of them. We were all good
friends. -
Burnett stated to Lieutenant Nc
Namara at the fourth precinct station
that he would not have shot at the men
had they not shouted that they would
"get him" He said that about a
week ago two providers on the tracks
had sworn to "get him. " The men
were so near him when he fired that
their clothing was burned by the dis
