CANAL SURE To
BE- FREE TOU. s.
Senate Passes Panama Bill.
House and Taft Expected to
Approve It.

WASHINGTON, Aug 1O.-The Pam
anna canal administration bill which
passed in the senate late yesterday by
non partisan vote of Al to Is, is ex-
pected to pass the house without dan
gerOus opposition. despite the fact that
the original bill had one of its most
drastic features modified AS the orig
inal bill came from the house it con-
tanned a fiat prohibition against the
ownership or control by any railroad
line Of steamship line This was
toned down to prohibit the passage of
railroad owned ships through the ca
nal Sponsors of the bill declare they
expect President Taft to sign the docu-
menr
As the bill stands now it provides
free passage to American ships. prohib-
its the passage of ships owned by rail-
road systems through the waterway
and authorizes the establishment of a
one-man government for the zone II
is expected that railroad systems own
ing steamship lines may assault the
constitutiOnality of the bill in the
courts if it becomes a law However.
If the attack is not made and the bill
stands in its present form, it will prove
a powerful instrument in the hands of
the government in antitrust warfare.
The interstate commerce commission,
under the senate amendments to the
bill, will become a powerful force
The amendments endOW the commits
sion to large extent with the enforce
ment Of the antitrust law.
1t had been expected that the pas
sage of the bin in face Of opposition
from the British government to the
clause granting free tolls to American
ships might be used for campaign ma
terial. However, the senate vote was
so divided that party lines We're split
up. A similar condition is expected
when the bill comes to vote in the
house
The house committee on interstate
and foreign commerce today decided to
request a conference with the senate on
the bill providing for the regulation and
management of the Panama canal zone
The bill as it passed the senate is ac-
ceptable to the Democratic members Of
the committee and most of the changes
urged in conference will be Of purely
technical nature.

Calls Taft and T. r.
Enemies of Labor

WASHINGTON, Aug. 1O.-Colonel
Roosevelt and President Taft were de-
nounced as foes of labor in a campaign
speech in the house today by Repre-
sentative Wilson. Democrat, of Penn
sylvauia. Mr.. Wilson is chairman Of
the house committee on labor His
speech, which was an appeal by the
Democratic party for labor, was on
Labor and the Democrats.
Democrats" said Mr.. Wilson "have
indicated during the last session Of
congress that they are labors real DO
litical friends and are prepared to pass
beneficial legislation for workingmen.
1T seems strange, but nevertheless
it IS true that Theodore Roosevelt.
who has for months been parading
himself as the friend Of the common
people, was the first president to issue
an executive order denying wage
workers employed by the government
the right to petition congress for re-
dress of their grievances. This gag
order was broadened by President
Taft"
The speaker stated that Governor
Wilson's speech on the labor question
had been garbled and misstated He
declared the New Jersey executive had
a more enviable record than that of
Colonel Roosevelt. Mr.. Wilson de-
clared Roosevelt never suggested any
beneficial legislation, but contented
himself with promises, He added that
President Taft, since his injunction
was issued against striking working
men, has never had a sympathetic
understanding of the needs and rights
of American labor"

through a note which she hastily
scrawled on piece of wrapping paper
and sent to her mother, Mrs. Alice Wy

wrote to Chief of Police Sebastian, of
Los Angeles. in which she said the girl
was held a prisoner in Mike O'MalIey s

where he found the girl. half starved

hope of ever being rescued when he
appeared at the cabin door
O'Mauey refused to allow She gill to

that if she left she must go in her bare
feet. The hermit insisted that she 60

His statement in pant follows;

Six or seven years ago there be

His opponents could not there
