SENATE FEARS VETO
 OF APPROPRIATIONS
TASTY ACTION IS URGED LEST THESE BILLS MEET WITH
 PRESIDENTIAL VETO.

Washington, Aug 3.--The possl- bility that President Taft will veto the legislatiye-executiye- judicial ap- propriation bill if it abolishes the commerce court and modifies the federal civil service was suggested to the senate indirectly today by Char man Warren of the senate appropria- tions committee.
 Senator Warren urged immediate action on the conference report on the bill, so fl might so to the presi- dent
 In view of the rumors that have been current for several days" he said, "as to what might happen to this bill in certain quarters, think We ought to get through with it with out further delay"
 The senate declined to dispose of the report before Monday Senator Bailey made new plea for the com merce court, but added that if it were abolished the five judges ought not td be retained on the pay roll as cir cult judges, as the appropriation biA would authorize.
 Senator Cummins, in an attack on the civil service provisions of the bill, declared the measure would abolish the civil service"
 This bill would Te-estabish the old spells system in all it's complete ness. he said "The proposition is to appoint for terms of seven years, and at the end of that time to reap point is to be absolutely at the dis cretion of the head of the depart ment. It is the spells system with change every seven years instead of at the end of an administration.
 Senator Warren, chairman of the senate conferees on the bill, declared this would not be the effect, that the civfl service commission has pro posed the system and still would be in control of all appointments. It de yeloped in the debate that one mem Der of the civil service commission favored the changes, but that the oth- CT two did not

JEWELRY THIEF LEADS
 POLICE EXCITING CHASE
ACCUSED OF STEALING $f5oooo, HE GIVES OFFICERS A RUN
 FOR THEIR MONEY.

Chicago. Aug. S.--After an exciting chase through the crowded streets of the business section, the police today arrested Jacob F. Guthrie, alias Harry Brown, 2S years old, who is alleged to have robbed the homes of wealthy residents of the South Side of valuable paintings, silverware jewel. ry, clothing. stocks and bonds, worth more than $150,000.
 Guthrie was arrested on a charge of forgery as he was about to enter bank While being led to Central station lhe tripped the detective who had him in custody and fled. He was captured after chase of several blocks.
 As he was being locked in a cell, he attempted to swallow two rent re. ceipt slips which the police seized and which later led to his identity. One was for barn and the other for room in a storage warehouse.
 When the police searched the barn and warehouse rooms, they found thousands of dollars worth of valu- able articles stolen from the homes of prominent Chicagoans in the last few months.
 Guthrie is charged with having forged the names of Mrs. H. o. Stone and Mrs. Ella Wilson to checks for $12,000, which he deposited to his own credit in Chicago banks.
 Later the police raided Guthrie's home on the South Side, where sey eral additional trunks filled with jew elry, silver plate, lace. and other valuables were found stored in the attic.
 Guthrie lived with his mother anI a brother, Robert w. Guthrie, a mem Der of the Chicago police department.
 In a statement made tonight to the police, Guthrie is said to have ad. mitted having robbed the homes oi scores of wealthy persons in Chica. go. He said he studied the society columns of the newspapers in select ing his victims
 Guthrie was an instructor in one of the public scholos until Marcn, 1911, when he resigned.
 He attributed his downfall to spec ulation and said he was heavily in debt when he resigned his position as teacher in the public schools.
 My first burglary was committed shortly after school closed in March, 1911p said Guthrie. T had invested heavily in stocks anu had lost large amount of money.
 q did not know what to do, and thought of some of the experiences of the burglars I had read in detec- | tive stories. and l determined to try my luck. I have more than $16,O0l in the bank, Iii addition to numhei of shares in various corporations.

ENGLISH ELECTION LAWS.
Bill introduced to Prevent Influence
 of Votes for Members,

London. Aug g. A bill has been in- tToduced in the house of commons to prevent tihe indirect influencing of parliamentary constituencies by candi dates and members of parliament by members of subscriptions to certain religious, charitabie public or semi public institutions or enterprises. The bill would include all such payments in the candidates election expenses, a return of which he has to make under the present law. Payment of subscriptions to clubs or societies of which a candidate is a bona fide or dinary member would be expected provided they did not exceed $250 a a year. while contributions to any fund or organization which is exchr sively political also are expressly omitted from the scope Of the meas ure.
 The law against corrupt practices at elections in the British Isles all ready is very strict. and any expendi- ture beyond that specially permitted invalidates an election. There is q feeling, however particularly among candidates, that the cost of obtaining election and holding q seat is exoes. siye, and it is with a view of cutting this down that the new measure has been proposed

CROP CONDITIONS ARE UNAVOIDABLE May Crop Report of Depart ment of Agriculture
 Given Out

Washington, May 1.-The May crop re- port of the department of agriculture issued today, disclosed a decidedly unfa- vorable condition. Winter wheat, owing to the rigorous winter, will produce an estimated crop of about 6O,000,0oo bushels less than that of last year. More than one-ffth of the acreage planted last fall was abandoned owing to the severe win ter. leaving an average almost 12 per cent less than that harvested last year. The average condition of winter wheat was 55 per cent below the 10 year aver age condition.
 Spring planting was less than half done. Spring blowing was only 528 per cent completed May l, compared with 67.6 per cent for the previous 10 years.
 Pastures and meadow lands also were below the 10 year average. but slightly above last years May 1 condition. The short crop of hay last year left only about one-half the usual amount of hay on farms on May l.
 \ The number of acres of winter wheat to be harvested and the condition of win ter wheat on May l, in southern states is as follows:

AN EARLY ADVANCE CARRIEDPR|GESW
Realizing Heavy as Market Approached 12 Cent Level.
 Subsequent Reactions

New York, May 7.-An early advance in the cotton market on continued wet weather in the south carried prices up to practically the high records of last month on new crop positions. but reaiiz- ing was heavy as the market approacheo the 12c level and there were subsequent reactions with the close steady net points lower to points higher.
 The opening was firm at an advance from to g points and shortly after the call active months sold 12 to II points above the closing figures of yesterday. On a renewal of yesterdays buying move ment the hrmness of Liverpool and the weather map showing more or less gen eral precipitation in the south. This ad- vance carried July cotton up to III, or 76 points above the low level of last Fri day morning and within 10 points of the high record for the season. December contracts sold at 96c, or more than s4 per bale above the low price of last week. and at the best level reached since the beginning of the season. Offerings were very heavy around this level in spite of official forecast for continued unsettled and showery weather over the greater part of the belt and numerous private advices from the south commenting very bullishly upon the continued wet weather
 Prices eased off in consequence, and while selling was held in check during the late forenoon by executions of bull fish weekly weather bureau report at midday the market later broke to a net loss of about 6 to 12 points, with the old crop relatively weak. It was believed that some of the big sellers of last week, as well as some of the recent big buyers were sellers on this decline, but the mar ket firmed up again just before the close on reports of generally high southern spot markets and last prices showed a rally of some to points from the low est Trading was very active at the start, but became quiet during the day except for a fipal squirt during the last few minutes The weekly report of the weather bureau reflected the unfavorable reports recently published, but contained nothing further.
