IN FEW DAYS NOW.
Washington, D. c., Aug. 15.-An eff
fort to reach an agreement to dispose
of the steel and wool tariff revision
bills already passed by the house over

objected to by Senator Briggs be-
cause there was dispute about the
arrangement of pairs.
Republican leaders decided to
call in absent members to meet any
attempt by the democrats to re-pass
the vetoed bills.

Denver, Colo. Aug. 15.-The aged
religious fanatic, calling himself
William, the apostle" arrested at
Colorado Springs Wednesday after
noon, suspected of the assault and
killing of Signe Carlzen, was brought

Washington, D. c., Aug. 15.-Presi-
dent Taft today returned to the house
with a veto message the legislative
and judicial appropriation bill be-
cause of it's amendments to abolish
the commerce court and limit the ten
IRE of office of civil service employees
to seven years
The cabinet read and approved the
message.
On motion of Representative John
son of South Carolina, a member OF
the appropriations committee, the
house took up the bill to pass it over
the presidents veto. Two hours de-
bate was arraigned and vote was
scheduled to be taken at the end of
that time.
The presidents veto is said to ex,
tend the session of congress. Some
members believe the bill can be pass
ed over his disapproval as were the
wool and steel tariff bills. None OF
the leaders think that will be possible
in the senate.
One effect of Mr.. Taft's veto is tC
hold up his own pay, that of every
member of congress, every fedora
Judge, and every employe of the
United States courts.
Some leaders have proposed to pass
q resolution to extend all last year,
appropriations to December and ad
journ congress without passing the
bill
Mr.. Taft's message was strong il
its condemnation of the way congres!
had attached special legislation to al
annual appropriation bill.
The president wrote he approved
any system of promoting efficiency i,
the civil service and favored a ciyi
pension system, but he could not al
prove any legislation to turn out O
Office employees who had given thei
best years to the government.
The president defended the con
merce court vigorously and wrot
that opposition to it came from thos
who had not been in sympathy will
its decisions.
When the reading of the veto wa
over, Representative Stephens G

prosecution witnesses and that of
his own, he sought to show the I'M
probability of the states allegation
that he had given the bribe money or
induced the corruption of the juror
Hardly a detail of the testimony of
Bert H. Franklin, the confessed juror
briber, was overlooked in the attack
upon him, nor was a point made in
Darrow's favor by the many witnesses
who contradicted Franklin, forgotten
The speaker, time after time, called
upon the jury to choose the man whom
they would believe-Bert Franklin
briber and admitted falsifier, testify
ing for his own liberty, or Job Harri-
man, Frank E. Wolfe and himself, who
had testified against Franklin.
IF you convict me, you must say
that Hartman, Wolfe and myself are
perjurers, and Bert Franklin is an
honest, sanity man." he declared.
Although more moderate than yes.
terday, Mr.. Darrow took frequent oc-
casion to denounce his enemies, par
ticularly in charging the prosecution
attorneys with trickery and malice
He protested that he would infinite
ly prefer to go to the penitentiary
himself than be one of the jury to
sentence him on the evidence.

Darrow launched an attack upon
John R. Harrington that surpassed
ali previous denunciatory assaults. He
declared that : Harrington's act in
| coming 1000 miles to lure him into
the dictagraph trap at the behest of
| the National Erectors association, was
the most infamous thing in the history
of the annals of the world"
Abiding to Harrington as a man
Who had eaten at his table and slept
in his bed while betraying him, he de-
c!ared so long as he lives'' the mark
of infamy will be on Harrington s
brow and will ever pass to his descend
ants"
Declaring that if the Nationa
Erectors association was foul enough
to plan "dictagraph trap" it was
capable of plotting the bribery of Jur
or Lockwood, Darrow placed tina
crime upon the shoulders of the east
ern manufacturers, as a part of the
conspiracy to ruin him.
