DISTURBED OVER FLEET
Churchill Bill Provides 100000 fol
eattieshIps.

London, July 23.-The speech Of
Winston Spencer Churchill, first lord
Of the admiralty, in introducing the
supplementary naval appropriation OF
$4,000, 900. in the house Of commons
fully Endorsed as it was by the prime
minister, will cause graver concern
to the country than any warnings
which have gone before. Without the
least offensiveness, the first lord Of
the admiralty sketched the "unpre-
cedented" rise Of the German feet,
which he described as extremely for.
midable.''
In order to bring home its size to
his hearers, Mr.. Churchill likened it
to the great feet which all saw at
Spithead q short time ago. His text
was Build! build! untiringly through
successive years." as the only means
Of meeting the menace in the North
Sea.
And as II that were not enough, Mr..
Churchill told the house that il the
information received by the admiralty
that a Mediterranean power-meaning
Austria-was contemplating another
considerable naval program. proved to
be true, 1T will constitute a naval
factor requiring our prompt attention
not included in any forecast l have
given of future naval construction"
Mr.. Balfour. the former leader Of
the opposition, was prompt in his sup.
port Of the government program.

STATEMENT TO WHITMAN
Developments May Follow Thls.-.
Widow Of Slain Gamester Ap.
pears Before Grand
Jury,

New York, July 24.-lmportant de-
velopments in the Rosenthal murder
case were expected to follow closely
. conference at which Harry WALTON,
the dapper gambler and gangster who
was in the murder car" the night
Rosenthal was shot, made a state
ment to Deputy Police Commissioner
Dougherty and District Attorney Whit
man. Vallon gave himself up and
was held by the coroner without bail
for examination on charge OF COM
plicity in the murder.
Apparently the authorities were
slated at the information obtained
from Vallon, although it's nature was
not divulged.
"All Commissioner Dougherty would
say was that Vallon was in the "mur-
der car and that an important arrest
was expected shortly.
From WALTON the District Attorney
and Commissioner Dougherty hope to
get the names of those higher up
who hired the gunner to slay Rosen-
thai. Mr.. Whitman has fiatly thrown
the gauntlet to the police department,
declaring that the murder smelled OF
police connivance."
Outside of WALTON, interest largely
centered in the appearance before the
grand jury of Mrs. Rosenthal. Her
husband had promised to tell District
Attorney Whitman what he knew
about the alleged partnership between
the police and New York gamblers.
The district attorney now hopes to get
many Of the facts from Mrs. Rosen-
thai, who is believed to have had
intimate knowledge Of her husbands
Mrs. Rosenthal IL believed to have
told the grand jury much about the
meeting her husband had with Police
Lieutenant Charles Becker, who, &C
cording to Rosenthal, was his silent
partner in his place on West Forty.
fifth street.
Whether the four gangsters still at
large, who were in the murder car"
at the time of the shooting, will fol-
low the lead OF WALTON and surrender
is causing much speculation. District
Attorney Whitman has announced that
he will protect every man in this
CASE If he can get the evidence he
wants against policemen, evidence
which he claims he knows exists.
But Commissioner Dougherty and his
private detectives who have been en-
ployed are making every effort to
round up those men.
Commissioner Dougherty, In state
ment to nswspapermen said WALTON
declared he left New York late in the
morning of the murder and went to
Big Indian, Ulster county. He says
he stayed there with his wife and
child until Sunday when a paper
reached him and he saw his name.
The description of the man known
% ''Itzky" given by Shapiro, the
chauffeur, is similar to Vallons de-
scription and eliminates "1tzky" Mr..
Dougherty said, from the case. They
are two different men.
Dougherty added that Lieutenant
Becker's story of his movements on
the night before the shooting had
been checked up and apparently, hs
said, Becker had told the truth.

Before he left he conferred with
Senators Reed and Stone of Missouri

"Of course Champ Clark will take

said afterwards, when asked his opin'

Senator Stone said he had talked
with Governor Wilson about plans for
the campaign. They had also discuss.
ed debatable states, he added. He was
reasonably sure that Wilson would
have 23O votes in the electoral college
before they reached the list Of de-
batable states. Among these, he
thought, were New York, Connecticut,
Massachusetts,, Wisconsin and Ohio.
They were not included in the 220
votes.
Representative Henry talked with
the governor, he said, about legisla'
ton pending in congress. He also dis.
cussed the political situation.

Defeated.

Washington, July "a. - Presiden
Taft's tariff board has secured TIL
promise Of one more year of life from
the senate.
After short fight that body, by ,
vote Of "a to 20, authorized in tn,
sundry civil appropriation bill an ex
penditure Of 3225,oo0 for anothe
years work Of investigation by thu
tariff experts.
Whether the appropriation 10 hnall!
made will depend on the strength will
which the house resists the senate'l
demands. The house refused to pro
vide for the tariff board when 1t fran
ed the sundry civil bill and its con
ferees are expected to fight the pro
vision when the big supply measure
is sent into conference between thu
two houses.
Democrats opposed the triff board
provision with but three exceptions
Senator Chamberlain, Newlands ani
Thornton, while the regular and Pro
gressive Republicans were united II
its support.
The first move by the Democrats
was an amendment by Senator Stone
and Bacon for congressional tarih
commission to consist of five senators
and five members Of the house. This
plan was defeated by straight party
vote Of 81 to 81.
The presidential tariff board was
made for subservient to congress, how
ever, by an amednment of Senator
Bristow's accepted by the senate with
out vote and which requires the
board to report to congress once each
year. An attempt by Senator Stone to
reduce the appropriation from $225,0oe
to 100000 was defeated.
The senate practically completed
the sundry civil bill, but the passage
Of the measure was delayed until
this morning. The most important
changes affected by amendment in ad.
dition to the adoption of the tariff
board we're:
An amendment restricting the EN-.
ployment of ex-employes Of the federal
department Of justice as private coun.
sci for the government at increased
compensation.
An amendment for 100000 add.
tional appropriation to the pension Of
fee to aid the commissioner in handl-
ing the 100000 claims arising under
the new law.
President Taft's tariff veto message
and the work of some of the experts
in the tariff board, were bitterly ar.
raigned during the debate In the sen
ate.
Senator Overman declared President
Taft's veto message on the cotton
chemical schedule was zone of the
most remarkable documents ever
penned, or ever sent to congress" He
declared the president had been mis-
led by an expert Of the tariff board
who had made calculations on q false
basis of prices" and using the short
instead of the long ton in his work of
estimation. On this authority, said
Senator Overman, President Taft had
sent a veto message as to the chemi-
cal schedule that was ''full Of errors
and misstatement Of fact"

The increase in value of 1ewa farm
land is greater than the combined
increase in value of all farm land in

The implements on the farms OF
Iowa represent rs per cent OF the

chiropraetie
A New Road to Health

The cause of ALL diseases is that
the brain is not in connection with the
diseased part.
The brain governs the whole body
and ALL its functions. 1t does this by
means of the nerves. These nerves go
out from the spinal cord, which is con-
nected to the brain, between each bone
of the backbone. These bones can be-
come displaced by some jar or accident
and thereby press on the nerves be-
tween them. The result is: Connec-
tion between brain and tissue is brok-
en-. Then appears the condition that
is known as disease. The Chiropractor
finds and adjusts the displaced vertebra
and restores connection between brain
and tissue.
