MANN EIIE. Miss,
May 80, 1911.
Ed. EAGLE: Will you and those
interested pardon my presump-
ton in suggesting, that mas
much as the candidates for county
offices have not made a house TO
house canvass, we now show our
appreciation by arranging dates
for picnics in different commune
ties, so that no two picnics will
come on same date, and further,
could not some plan be adopted,
whereby the respective commu-
mites intending to give picnic
could so fix the dates, that candi-
dates would not be required to
ride from one side of the county
to the other,
To the end that this be done
and that no dates conflict, each
community could send an author
ICED delegate to represent them
in fixing dates for picnics, said
delegates to meet at such time
and place as may be agreed upon
Or designated.
Yours for the candidates,

Urging a New Type
Of Service Shell

The controversy in the House over
the naval bill, regarding an appropria-
ton for a shell employing explosive
gelatine, and requiring greater pene-
tratnS power from the service shells,
Will be brought up in the Senate.
doubtless before the Naval Affairs Com
mittee.
Senator Dillingham; has already ir-
troduced amendments to the naval bill,
providing that $4,000 shall be expended
.or the purchase of shell, employing
explosive gelatine under service condi-
plate at 1900 yards.
The questions raised by these amend
ments were discussed in the House.
when the naval bill was brought up by
Representative Hobson. II the aIlega-
tions made as to the service shells are
true, they show the navy unprepared
for war.
These questions are not new before
Congress. but it has been only recently
that much attention has been given
them. They have been stirred up largely
by recent tests on the Puritan in Hamp-
ton Roeds, which showed the capacity
of gelatine-c charged shell, exploding
on the outside Of armor, to destroy
battleship. The Puritan now lies at
The bottom OF the harbor, at Hampton
Roads. In recent tests it was found
that the service shell penetrated armor,
and was effective at 5000 yards.
In discussion of the bill in the House
It was represented that in order to
meet the requirements the service shell
must be effective at a much greater
range. 1t was pointed out that in the
RuSsO-Japanese war battles began a.
about 5000 yards. and the average bat
tie range was about 1000 yards.
The naval bill carries about s., 0OO, 900
for shell for the battleships. Senator
Dillingham's amendments would either
have a small part of this set apart for
different type of Shell or would make
more exacting requirements of the ser
vie shell

Coast Is Suspicious
Of Japanese Pact

For the present at least all question
of controversy between this country
and Japan over the renewal Of the
treaty of 1894 has been removed. The
Senate in executive session ratified the
treaty. Western Senators did not press
their objection to the treaty on ac-
count of the failure to include in II
specific provision for Japanese eXclu-
sion. The vote for ratification was
nearly unanimous.
But while the Senate took this action
the feeling of opposition in California
has by no means been lulled. There
the treaty is viewed with suspicion
Many Californians say frankly that the
Japanese cannot be trusted, and any
gentlemans agreement will be abos-
Iutelv useless.
Representative Kahn of California
said he was opposed to the treaty and
considered the understanding as to inn
migration entered into apart from the
treaty, the so-caIled gentleman's agree
ment, worthless. MIR. Kahn said he
was not an alarmist. but he could not
overlook the fact that ministries In
Japan changed and the next ministry
would not consider any word given by
the present ministry binding. He
thought this Government was merely
deceiving itself If it supposed Japan
would respect the informal arrange
ment as to exclusion.

Possession of posthumous writings of
the late Merris c. Barrow, better known
as BILL, Barlow, the Sagebrush Phiro-

day in the District Supreme Court by
his widow, Mrs. Minnie F. Barlow, of
Douglas, Wyo., against his brother-in-
law. Frank II. Barrow, a Senate en-
ploye, living at 629 Maryland avenue
northeast.
Charging her brother-in-law with
theft of her late husbands literary
works, Mrs. Barrow secured an order
to levy on the property held by Barrow.
Judge Stafford also issued a rule against
Barrow to show cause, March 2, why
a permanent Injunction should not is
sue against him for alleged infringe

Mrs. Barrow and her late husband.

Mrs. Barrow says her brOther-in-law
went to Douglas last December and
urged her to take a vacation. She says
Barrow secured the keys to the office
and before she returned left with sub
scription lists, dies, proofs, and recent
writings of her dead husband.
That Barrow is not promoting a sec

SENATE DELAYING
VOTE ON LORIMER
Improbable That Any Decis-
i've Action Will Be Taken
This Session.

The Lorimer case has been made the
unfinished business in the Senate. This
has encouraged the supporters OF Lori
mer in the belief that they will be able
to obtain vote this session. At the
same time. efforts made in the Senate
late yesterday afternoon to get a day
fixed for a vote failed. The suggestion
that a vote be taken as late as next
Wednesday. even, was turned down.
In this situation, with many Senators
desiring to speak, there is much uncer-
tainty whether a vote can be had. 1t
Is clear that a filibuster is on fo- the
purpose of preventing a vote.
Senators Stone, Crawford. Owen. and
La Toilette, all of whom are opposed to
Lorimer, are among those who desire to
speak.
Senator Peveridge concluded his three
days speech on Lorimer yesterday af
teraoon. Thereafter, though no day
could be agreed on for voting, there was
only formal opposition to making the
Lorimer case the unfinished business.
