Democrats Condemn Action of President and Secre- tary in the Aims
 worth Case.
REPORT GOES
 TO THE HOUSE
Majority Declares Depart ment Officials Were Actuated by I'm
 proper Motives.
[ASSocidted Press DiSbatckl

WASHINGTON, April 9.-President Taft and Secretary Stimson are ar raigned severely in d sensational re- port made today to the house by the military affairs committee. Secre- tary Stimson is charged with hay ing committed great and irrepar- able wrong" and d "flagrant misuse of official authority" when, in Feb ruary. he suspended Gen. Ainsworth from his duties as adjutant general of the army and charged him with
 nsubordination. That the president and secretary prejudiced the case; that accusations against the general are based upon prejudice, and that the secretary of war has an 'erron- eous idea" of his relations with con- greSs, are some other conclusions reached by the majority of the com mittee of which Representative Hay of Virginia is chairman.
 Following Ainsworth's relief from duty when courtmartial seemed probable, the president permitted him to retire from the army because of long service. The report of the in- vestigation followed Ainsworths re- lief from duty.
 Criticising the relief of AinswOrth the report declares:
 The worst feature of it was this officer, who was long distinguished. had no tribunal to which he could appeal with any hope of justice or fair treatment"
 The majority of the committee con- cluded the general was guilty of no act which justified his suspension, that the charges had their origin in d determination to drive Ainsworth from active service. and have nothing to support them but bare assertion, coupled with misrepresentation and suppression of the truth
 The report then goes on to say it is incredible that Stimson believed Ainsworth guilty of the charges and adds:
 Some other reason must have actuated the secretary of war and that reason is hard to find. Your committee. being familiar with the phases of the legislative features of the army appropriation bill. can read ily account for this violent assault on General Ainsworth."
 It is pointed out that Ainsworth favored the five year enlistment plan in the army bill, which was opposed by other officers of the generals staff and that Stimson's letter of suspension to the general was sent on the day this feature of the bill was being discussed in the house. Stimson's comment to the house when he sent the papers in the case to the effect his action was not to be construed as a recognition of the authority of the house or any of its committees to require of the chief executive a statement of his reasons for his official action," is criticised severely.
 Ainsworth's stand on a certain letter to the secretary of war. upon which much of the charges is based, is defended

Engineer Killed and Fire man Fatally Injured When Locomotive
 Boiler Let Go.
ONE VICTIM HAD
 LIVED AT YUMA
Injured Fireman Was Taken to Hospital But There Is Nc Hope
 for His Life.

TUCSON, Ariz., April 9.-(Spe- cial.) .)-Engineer Charles Vaughn was killed and Fireman B. F. Norton. of an eastbound' freight train. was nor tally injured by the explosion of a locomotive at Stanwix siding, near Sentinel at four o'clock this after noon. The death of the engineer was instantaneous The fireman was brought to the hospital here tonight with not the slightest hope of recov- cry and with hardly a possibility that he would survive the night.
 The boiler of the locomotive was scattered about the scene of the tragedy. looking like the parts of an exploded gigantic fire cracker. The top of the engineers head was blown away and his neck was broken. His body had been thrown fifty feet. About the same distance away lay the body of the fireman. As ac- curate an examination as could be made indicated that no bones had been broken and that he had suf- fered no serious bruises. but three fourths of the skin over the entire surface of the body had been scalded.
 The unconscious fireman opened his lips but once and that was to ask for drink of water It was given him and as he drank he was questioned regarding the explosion but without answering he relapsed into inconsistencies. His wife and sister were on the train which brought him.
 The hodv of the engineer was taken to Yuma. where he had lived about two weeks. The home of Norton IS at Gila Bend. It is probable that the cause of the explosion will never be learned

ROCHESTER,, N. Y, April 9.-The republican state convention held its first session today after the keynote speech" by temporary Chairman Mich oLls Murray Butler and adjourned un- til tomorrow to permit committees to draft a platform, select four delegates at large for the national convention, and try to determine whether it will be for the best interest of President Taft to send an instructed delegation to Chicago.
 The resolutions committee with Congressman Vreeland as chairman, worked well into the night formulating a platform, which Chairman Barnes desires to present as a model for adoption by the national convention.
 A thousand odd delegates were dis cussing tonight whether it will be ex- pedient to instruct the delegation for Taft; but it is generally believed a satisfactory solution will be reached before the convention meets tomorrow. Barnes, and other leaders, who oppose instructions, said they wouldn't recede from their position and that they had a majority of votes to support their position.
 r Senator Root and Chairman Koenig of New York county. are strong in the opinion the delegates should be in structed. Until the platform is com pleted it was decided to suspend fur ther consideration of the selection of delegates and their instructions
 With the completion of the platform and the naming of delegates it was planned to hold a four hour session to- morrow Butler will be made perma- nent chairman.

BEGINNING PARCELS POST.

European experience shows that
parcels post, when once in opera
ton, conducts a business in bulk
larger than that Of either letter mail
or newspapers. The great strain in
a parcels comes in deliveries and
collections, which require the post
office to have wagon service con-
siderably larger than that which
makes express wagons one of the
most familiar sights in the streets OF
nearly every American city.
If the Post Office Department in
troduces a parcels post without full
preparation, it will be swamped at
the very start. If it prepared for it
before it was begun, there would be
a great waste in providing for a busi-
less whose size could not be fully
foreseen.
The wise plan, under these condi-
tians, is to begin with that part of
the postal service which already has
its delivery wagOns-rural free de-
livery. To this it is safe to add a
delivery in the cities from the rural
free delivery or to it.
Once begun, the parcels post would
rapidly develop and reach bulk
and business which would exceed
the present volume of the post office
transportation, taking experience
abroad. The proposition which has
been made by President Taft and
Postmaster General Hitchcock, to
begin the parcels post and let it
slowly develop, is therefore not
delay in this addition to the postal
but begins it in the only
way in which it can be begun, with
out the risk of great expense, waste,
great delays in deliveries and fail
ure OF the post Office to deal with
new conditions. Once be-
gun, the parcels post will grow and
can be extended as it grows.
