WASHINGTON. - From a reliable and
authentic source it has been learned
that the plans for legislation formu-
lated by the Democratic majority In
the house indicated that the Republic
an senate will soon have several I'M
portant measures before it for its con-
sideration.
The definite outline, subject to
further caucus ratification, lists as fol
lows the order of legislation to be
pushed forward by the ways and
means committee as soon as the house
organization is completed:
Popular elections of United States
senator's
Publicity before elections of cam
paign contributions.
Statehood for Arizona and New
Mexico.
Canadian reciprocity.
Revision of schedule K-the wool
schedule-of the Payne-Aldrich bill.
Revision of the cotton schedule.
Beyond this the present program
does not extend other tariff matters
and general subjects being left for
further consideration, dependent a
great deal upon time
It also practically has been decided
that the Canadian reciprocity bill to
be brought forward by Chairman I'm

REPORTS ON PRINCESS DEATH.
Prosecutor Thinks Baron Paterpo Is
Guilty of Premeditated Homicide.

Prosecutor Thinks Baron Paterpo Is
Guilty of Premeditated Homicide.
Rome The crown prosecutor
has drawn up report embody-
ing the results Of the investigation
into the killing of Princess Gfulia
Trigona di Saint Ella, lady-in-waiting
to Queen Helena, by Lieutenant
Baron Palermo. The conclusion OF
the prosecutor is that Palermo Is
guilty of premeditated homicide. He
dismisses the defense, based on
Paterno's assertion that he commit
ted the crime because of jealousy, in
the belief that the princess was about
to leave him for another friend, Sig
nor Serrao This plea the crown
prosecutor considers absurd as on
the eve of the crime Palermo wrote
to Serrao in very cordial terms with
reference to the princess.
The prosecutor argues that instead
the crime was due to the decision of
Princess Trigona to abandon Palermo
and to the fact that Palermo was
angered at losing $4,000 which he ex-
pected to receive from her to pay his
most urgent debts.
