APPROPRIATION BILLS and
vET0ES ARE WORRYING THE
WORN OUT CONGRESSMEN
THEY WOULD like TO ADJOURN THURSDAY OF NEXT WEEK BUT THE
HARDER They TRY TO AGREE ON IMPORTANT MEASURES The MORE
TROUBLES they seem TO HAVE COMMERCE COURT WILL NOT DOWN
SuNDRY Civil, NAVAL AND INDIAN
BILLS ARE STILL FAST IN CONFERENCE

Washington, D. c., Aug. 16.-Con-
gress is uneasy over the situation Gre
ated by President Taft's veto of the
legislative, executive, and judicial ap-
preparation bill.
The house, failing to pass the meas
ure over the presidents veto yester-
day is prepared to drop the civil serv-
ice-seven year proposition, and again
ask the president to pass upon the
abolishment of the commerce court.
A canvass of the senate was begun,
to develop the attitude of the majori-
ty. While bill to abolish the COM
merce court probably would be ap-
proved by the senate, members dis
liked to again attach the provision to
an appropriation bill and call down
another veto that might prolong the
session. Both houses are being can
yassed to find out whether the bill
could be passed over a veto if it con-
tanned only the commerce court pro-
vision.
Attempts are being made to dispose
of business so that adjournment may
be reached next Thursday; but the ap-
preparation bills are a stumbling
block. The conference over the pos
tai bill has begun but the general de-
ficiency bill has not been taken up in
the senate and the army bill has not
entered conference The sundry civil,
Indian and naval bills, are still in
conference.
Sharp dissention broke out in the
subcommittee of the house appropria-
tons committee during re-considera-
ton of the legislative, executive and
judicial bill.
Two members were said to be in
sistent that both abolishment of the
commerce court and the seven year
civil service provision be insisted on
but the majority he'd only that the
latter be kept in the bill. The sub
committee decided to leave it to a de-
cision of the full committee later.
Washington, D. c., Aug. 16.-Presi'
dent Taft expects to sign the $3.50,
100000 pension appropriation bill to-
day?
AS soon as the president signs the
bill, the sub-treasuries will be ordered

of the eighteen outlying pension
agencies which by the provisions of
the law which so long delayed its
passage, will go out of existence on
January 81, 1913. After that date,
the pension bureau in Washington,
will mail checks direct
PANAMA BILL is
ADOPTED IN SENATE.
Washington, D. c., Aug. 16.-The
conference report on the Panama
canal bill, containing the provisions
against trust owned ships and
granting free tolls to certain Ameri-
can vessels was adopted by the SEN
ate today As to IS, after a futile fight
against it led by Senator Brandegee,
chairman of the panama canal COM
mittee.
Senator Brandegee urged that the
report be rejected the measure allow
ed to go over for the session, and a
committee of the house and senate
appointed to thresh out the problems
involved. He attacked the bill as
finally framed.
Il believe the bill now is a viola.
ton OF our treaty obligations with
Great Britain, and l cannot vote for
it," he said.
Senator Brandegee proposed a tenn
porary resolution giving the president
power to organize the canal force, TO
publish maximum canal tolls of S125
per net ton, arrange for wireless tele-
graph installation and make provis.
ions for repair of ships.
Senator Brandegee conceded that
he could not offer the resolution as a
substitute for the conference report
but urged that the conference report
and@the accompanying canal bill be
voted down.
SENATE REFUSES TO
PASS STEEL BILL.
Washington, D. c.. Aug. 16-An at.
tempt to pass the steel tariff revision
bill over the presidents veto, led by
Senator Simmons, was lost in the SEN
ate today 80 to 80. The house had

WHOLE FAMILY
is POISONED

Rocky Ford, Colo, Aug 16.-Three
persons are dead and one other is
thought to be dying as the result OF
either arsencal or ptomaine poison

tor of the German Lutheran church

said to be dying.
The members of the Latzke FAMILY
were taken violently i'll yesterday af.
ter eating beef soup in an enameled
kettle. Several physicians were call.
ed in and agreed the deaths were the
result of poison. They are at loss,
however, to explain how the poison
could have gotten into the food.

was placed in the food deliberately
but DR.. Latzke declares he has no en-.
emy, and knows of no one who would
knowingly do himself or his family
harm.
The Rev. Mr.. Latzke is sinking rap
idly and it is not believed he will re-
cover DR.. r. B. Wilson, coroner OF
Otero county, has been Investigating
the poisoning of the Latzke family
and believes desperate and already
partly successful attempt has been
made to murder the entire family.
DR.. Wilson points to the sudden and
unexpected deaths of the wife. and
two children of Rev. Mr.. Hutto, who
occupied the German Lutheran pulpit
two years ago. Mr.. Hutto resigned
the charge here to assume a new one
in Idaho and while on the way Mrs
Hutto and the two children ate some
food that had been prepared, here ant

NEW YORK DETECTIVES ARE HOT ON
TRAIL OF ANOTHER MAN WHO SENT
WORD TO C0MRADE IN Tn0MBS

New York, Aug. 1G.-District Attor-
ney Whitman today hopefully awaited
word from Mathuen Mass, regarding
Harry HoroWitZ, known as "Gyp, the
Blood" and Louis Rosenzweig, alias
Lefty Louis" the two much wanted
gun men in the ROsenthal murder
case.
Four detectives are searching Me-
thusen for the gun men who sent a
tell-tale postcard to Bridge" Web
ber
Weber received the postcard yes
terday enclosed in an envelope. The
gambler tore up the envelope. The
card read: Dear Pal: Do the best
you can. We are all right.
(Signed) your pals,
81. and G"
The imprisoned gambler showed
the card to his counsel, Max Steuer,
saying he wa sconvinced that it was
Lefty Louis writing. Mr.. Steuer
informed States Attorney Whitman
and prison keepers combed Webber's
cell for the bit of torn envelope,
which, after much trouble was recon
structed from the pieces. The en-
velope showed that it had been mail
ed from Methuen, Mass, on Wednes-
day
District Attorney Whitman tele-
phoned to Deputy Police Com mission
er Dougherty who at once sent four
detectives to Methuen. There were re-
ports that Horowitz has relatives in
Methuen.
A reward of $4,000 has been offered
by District Attorney Whitman for the
capture of the two gun men. The
money will be paid for the fugitives,
dead or alive
The district attorney said he did
not want to start the mIrder trial
until he had captured Horowitz and
Rosenzweig, unless he had to.
The public prosecutor has asked
Governor Dix for an extraordinary
session of the supreme court to try
the ROsenthal murder cases and the
governor, it is understood, will ap.
point Supreme Court Justice Golf to
preside. Justice Goff presided at the
first trial of Rolan B. Molineaux and
the murder trials of DR.. Samuel Ken.
nedy and Albert T. Patrick.
Until the arrival of Sam Schepps
now on his way here, under guard
from Hot Springs Ark, there seemed
little likelihood of the development
OF any startling phases in the Rosen
thai case.
With District Attorney Whitman
olt of town for the week and the
grand jury not in session, interest in
the Rosenthal murder and police
graft centered today in Governor
Dix's appointment of Supreme Court
