vatican, to which ne was moved today
from his small bed chamber on the

afava visited his holiness In the early
evening his temperature was l0l but

Democrats Considering Com

Wool at Lowest They Can
Secure Under Thirty Per Cent

Ss ""tuint suufuht cpcStsf heascu Wtfc
Washington. Aug. 9.-There was
much activity today in the interest of
an agreement between the two houses
of congress on the differences on the
wool bin, resulting in an understand
ing that Messrs. La Toilette and
Underwood, constituting the sub-oom-
mittee Of the fun commerce commit
tee. would make an early effort TO
reach an adjustment. The close Of the
day found the two legislators still
apart on essential details, but nearer
than before.
When they were in conference on
Tuesday, Senator La Toilette gave
Mr.. Underwood to understand that he
could not possibly get his followers
to agree to a rate of less than so per
cent ON raw wool, while Mr.. Under
wood told him that II would be neces-
sary TO come to 2S per cent II not 10
90 to insure the acceptance of the
conference report by the house.
The senate representative under
took to make canvass but with lit
tie hope of success. He had been
assured of the support of only eight
OF the insurgent republicans of the
senate for 80 per cent. He could al
| ford to lose only two votes and his
investigation was not re-assuring.
| Mr.. Underwood was more confident
that his fellow conferee. leading to
the conclusion that he might go far
ther than he yet had manifested a
Willingness to do. His optimism was
due TO change in the condition of
| the house.
The democrats of the house have
been thoroughly canvassed In the
last two days to determine whether
| they would support an increase of
/ the rates in the Underwood bill, In
order to effect compromise with the
insurgent- democratic strength of the
lsenate, II was asserted today by prom
inent democrats that Mr.. Underwood
has found an unexpected strength IN
favor OF meeting of the La Toilette
forces on the best possible compro-
mise basis. preferably something be-
| low 80 per cent on raw wool. Mr.,
| Underwood said today that he ex-
pected the wool situation would solve
itself tomorrow, when the fun com-
mIttee probably would meet

Celso Vigil, of Mora, nineteen years of
age, is now heavily guarded in the

Partaking of the hospitality of Mrs.

Of a we'll known ranchman ten milea
east OF here, Vigil. according to his
own confession, repaid her Kindness
by shooting her to death with revol'

defenseless and alone in the upper
room Of the ranch where she fled to
make & final desperate stand for her
lie and honor. and filling her body
with bullets, then satisfying his devil

TREMENDOUS DECLINE
IN CROP PROSPECTS

washington, Aug. "a tremendous
decline in the condition Of crops, gem
orally, throughout the country ana
traceable TO drought and intense heat
occurred during last month, as indi-
Gated by official figures and estimates
made today in the monthly crop report
Of the department of agriculture.
The report today Is the worst, as 10
general crop conditions that the de-
partment has issued for any single
month since 1901. The area most
seriously affected extends from New
York and Pennsylvania westward TO
the Rocky mountains, embracing all
the great corn, wheat and hay pro-
ducing states in the country.
In the southern states with the ex-
ccption of Virginia and North Caro-
lima, ample rains served to maintain
generally favorable conditions. These
conditions thus far continue to be
favorable.
Conditions in the Pacific northwest
are regarded as excellent, although
during July that territory suffered
from brief but exceedingly hot
period.
