ment of the Third Cavalry of Major

WASHINGTON, Aug. 14.-Undeter-
red by the Democratic-Progre Re
publican coalition in the house, which
terday, President Taft sent a message
to congress today in which he vetoed
the steel bill, passed by the house and
senate and sent to him for his sig
nature.
The presidents grounds for his veto
are that the bill was framed without
consulting the reports of the tariff
board, and provided only for revenues
and not for the protection of Ameri-
can industries"
Earlier in the day there had been
rumors that the president was so vex-
ed over the failure of the standpat
Republicans to attend yesterdays ses-
sion and support his stand on the wool
bill that he would allow the steel bill
to become a law, and only the presi-
dents message later in the day ended
these rumors
In the lengthy message which ac-
companied the steel bill back to con-
gress the president enumerated his OBJ
jections under three principal heads.
Has Three Objections.
First, he took exception to the act
of congress in overlooking the publi-
cation of the tariff board and chided
the house for paying no attention to
the findings of that body.
Second, he objected to the sched-
ules because they provide tariff for
revenue only and not for protection.
Third. he objected because of the
bills tremendous immediate effect on
working men and their families and
hundreds of millions of dollars worth
of goods without first providing for
an ample and disinterested inquiry
into the conditions of the whole in.
dustry.
In summing up the president said in
part:
From the outset Of my administra.
tion 1 have advised a revision of the
tariff based on a non partisan study
of the facts. l have provided the
means for securing such information
In the appointment of a tariff board
Their thorough work, already complet
ed on several schedules, has justified
my confidence in this method. The
principle is indorsed by chambers OF
commerce and boards of trade in al
most every city of Importance in the
country.
"The proposed bill has not been
framed on the basis of any such study
of the industry. Avowedly it's rates
are fxed with no consideration of any
thing but revenue. The principle OF
protection is disregarded entirely and
therefore it is not too much to say
that the effect of these sweeping
changes on the welfares of those en-
gagged in the various industries has
been disregarded."

ALEXANDRIA, Egypt, Aug. 14.-In-
ternational complications involving
Italy and Great Britain are threatened
as the result of the hold-up of a Rou-
manian steamer from Constantinople
in Egyptian waters today and the cap
ture of a number of Turkish officers
who We're on board. At the time the
mail steamer was only few miles off
this port and protests have been made
by the Turkish authorities that the
action of the Italians was in direct
violation of Egyptian neutrality. They
threaten to bring the matter formally
to the attention of the powers.
At the time the Roumanian vessel
was flying the flag of merchantmen
and mail ship. There was no Brit
ish man-of-war in the vicinity at the
time, although there is usually one
or more English battleships cruising
in Egyptian waters near this port.

GRASSHOPPERS ARE
INVADING KANSAS

ing to Francis B. Milliken, state ento,
mologist. Kansas is suffering this year
from the worst invasion of grasshop'
pers she has experienced since the eel
ebrated invasion OF 1874. The Milli'
ken report states that the dry weather
which the state has experienced dur
Ing the past few years has brought
about conditions favorable to the pres
ent invasion.
Along river valleys the farmers are
able to keep the grasshoppers killed
off by free and frequent use of Paris
green and arsenic compounds, but the
state entomologist has had little sue
cess combating the insects on the dry
uplands. The center of attack seems
TO be the western part OF the state.
