TURK BOAT WAS SUNK
AFTER A FAIR WARNING
(Ry Associated Press

CONSTANTINOPLE,T Turkey, May 3
A telegram from Smyrna today says the
steaamre Texas, which went down in the
gulf of Smyrna with 40 persons Monday
night, was sunk by a shell fired from
the military fort and not by a mine. as
at first reported.
The dispatches say two blank shots
were first fired by the Turkish fortifi-
cation, warning the vessel that she had
deviated from the proper channel When
no notice was taken a shell sent the ship
to the bottom.
The new version is regarded as quite
probable, for the authorities had re-
peatedly warned shipping companies that
their vessels would risk becoming tar
gets for the fort if they strayed from the
proper channel.

THE COMMERCE COURT.

For weeks there has been a dead lock on between the national house ot representatives and President Taft on the question of the abolishlnent or tAe cofamsrce court. The legislative and judicial bill originally passed by the house. cut off the appropriation and abolished the cogmeree court. Taft vetoed it. Three times the house has re passed the bin over the presi- denfs veto. but Mr. Taft has hugged his pet aoDby to his bosom and held up appropriations for thousands of federal employees while playing tag with the house.
 In its original form or the legisla tion to abolish the commerce sonrt this result was to all intents and pur- poses effected by cutting off the ap- nranriation to keep that court court goirg. Later shere was added to the bill q clause distinctly and formally doing away with the commerce court. Such clause was natural adjunct of the original bill It was in no sense a ''riderp 1t sprang logically. and in- eyitahly. from the determination of the house to rid American jurispru- uence of the commerce court anoma- iy. Ii therefore is proper and com ponent part of the appropriations leg islation with which it has been incor- TvIatvd, it's ubJrrt being to carry into effect an important share of that leg islation.
 The distinction between this kind of provision, and what is called q joker" or rider, the purpose of the "ioker" being to deceive, and Of the rider to add something to biil ex- traneona to it's purposes and sub stance. is plain to the veriest amateur in civics. Yet 1t is urged in behalf Of President Taft, as an excuse for his veto ot the first legislative. judicial anu executive appropriations Dill and for his probable veto of it in it's re- visRd form. that he is justified in con- tinuing the useless and anomalous commerce court, and in holding up the pay of thousands of government em ployes. because the proviso abolish ing the commerce court was made a part of the appropriations bill This. is the fiimsiest kind of nonsense, and still worse, 1t is insincere.
