It is predicted that congress may
remain in session until late in
August, or even early in September.
The general belief is that President
Taft will veto two big appropriation
bills-the legislative, executive and
judicial budget, on account of the
adjustment Of the commerce court
by the house and senate, and the
army bill, because of the rider dis
placing General Wood. chief Of staff
, This. il is expected, will force a
deadlock between the executive and
legislative branches. A movement
has been started, in anticipation of
I this situation, to continue over into
July the existing appropriations for
the fiscal year ending June 80.
1t will cause great grief among
the departments, for it intcrferes
with their system of bookkeeping.
All books in the various branches
are supposed to be balanced by July
LIST, and congress always tries TO
pass the appropriations before that
date on that account. When 1t hap
pens that congress fails to execute
the necessary legislation, all plans
in the departments miscarry, and
much greater work in accounting is
entailcd. There seems to be no help
for it this year. however, in view
of the present outlook.

CONGRESS PLAYS
NATIONAL GAME
WHILE CONVENTIONS WORK
LAW MAKERS PLAY
Base Rail Line Up Between Demo-
Gratis and Republicans-Not Much
Real Work Can be Done While
Convention Results Are Doubtful.

Washington, d. c., June 21-The
conferees IN the river and harbor
appropriation bill arc slowly get ing
together hut there is still a vast
amount TO do before a final agree
ment is reached. For a time it
looked as if the differences between
the Nenate and house members on
the conference commi tee We're ir-
retoneiiable because Of the amend
ments inserted by the senate. but a
better spirit is prevailing and il is
expected that a complete agreement
will be reached eventually. 1t will
be a. least three weeks before the
conferees make their report on the
bill, the absence Of members at the
Chicago and Baltimore conventions
making further conference meetings
impossible until after the adjourn
men Of the conventions.
National convention zine is work
time for the delegates but play time
for those congressman who do not
contemplate a visit TO the great po-
litical arenas at Chicago and Balti-
more. Agreements were made by
both the senate and the house not
TO attempt anything but routine
business while the political excite
ment commands the at ention Of the
country.
One of the diversions %forecasting
the official congressional vacation
was a base ball game between the
democrats and republicans of the
house. held last Saturday. The re-
publican lineup put Anderson, Of
Minnesota. behind IN bar as
ca cher. to receive the puzzlers Of
his brother colleague from Mime
sofa. Miller, who pitched. Pattcn,
of Pennsylvania. oficiated as first
baseman. Three other Pennsyl-
vania stars figured in the republican
lineup, Porter from that state be-
ing on taird. Farr aeing as short
stop. and Rayburn looking on for
high fliers out in left field. Iowa
had Kendall on second. Ames OF
Massae h'lyetts scanned the skies for
hits in center field. and Laherty OF
Oregon was there with his lamps in
right field.
Opposing them for the democrats
was Rouse Of kentcuky as cAcher.

of his sentence to death, and advised
him that he should have three hours
in which to prepare and in which
to commune with his God. Iturbidc
merely asked that the execution be
deferred to the following day to the
end that he might hear mass and
receive the last sacrament. This re-
quest was also denied.
After he hand confessed to the
~presidente of congress, who was
both priest and governor, he in
formed the guard that he was ready.
He was then marched out into
the plaza, where after one last view
of the world, he was blindfolded,
and, although he pleaded for his
arms 10 be free, they were bound by
his eXecutioners. After a few words
in which he eXhorted his hearers TO
remain loyal patriots and to be firm
in their religious faith, he kissed
the cross. Upon the command from
Gordiano del Castillo, the soldiers
fred and Iturhide plunged forward
to the ground. a ragged 5ullet-hole
in his forehea and various others
through his heart.
Shrouded in the habit Of st. Fran
els the corpse was held all night in
the Capilla (chapel) which at the
time served as the halls of congress,
and next day it was given a funeral.

who had voted for the execution.
The body was then Inferred in an

today O9lD just as il did on the
day Of his execution over sevcnty-fye
years ago.
In the days of ~Iturbide's troubles.
there was no telegraphic communi-
cations as today. and correspond
ance was necessarily slow. On April
IS, 1924, some months before his
return 10 Mexico. the federal con-
eress at Mexico City had declared
lturbide to be a traitor. and had
condemned him to death in the
event OF his return to the republic,
or should he place his foot on Mex
lean soil. And no. only this. but
the same congress decreed that any
who might cooperate with him or
favor his return. or any who might

same fate.
Iturbide had been expartiated by
congress on April Z. 1928.
The question of the necessity for
%Iturbide's abrup. execution has
been one of serious import TO Mex
leans. Some claim that il was I'M
necessary. H6wevr. Cara and those
who were at the head of govern
mental affairs in T%amaulipas at the
time of his capture. declare that he
