Sharp Tilt on Reciprocity.

Responsibility for Canadian Reel
priority was debated in the House yes
terday during consideration of the
Military Academy appropriation Bill.
Representative Shackclford, Of Mis-
souri,, Democrat, asserted that the
Reciprocity bill, a repeal Of which was
placed on the House metal tariff re-
vision bill by the Senate, was the work
Of President Taft and former pres
idcnt.'
Representative Prince, of Illinois,
a Republican, retorted that the Demo
cratic Speaker of the House was a
bedfcllow Of President Taft on the
reciprocity question.
Mr.. Prince insisted that the people
would hold the Democrats responsible
and Representative Lloyd backed Mr..
Shackelford in reiterating that Presi-
dent Taft "fathered the measure upon
the advice Of an ey-i'resident'"
Then Prince spoke eulogistically OF
Colonel Roosevelt, and Representative
Hardwick of Georgia, chided him for
coming out.at such a late date for the
Colonel.

ALLEGED WAR ON GAMBLERS.
Police Unable to Get Any Clue TO
Identity of Perpetrators of Murder
Gus Acts-Thrce Bombs Thrown.

San Francisco, Calf, June l.
Three bomb explosions that caused a
semi-panic in sporting circles just be-
fore midnight were under investiga-
tion by. the police today. They are OF
the opinion that the war of gamblers
has been transferred from Chicago to
this city as the places affected were
Tom Corbett's pool room and saloon
at Fourth and Stevenson streets,
where two bombs were set off, and
Brewers saloon, a short distance
away on Stevenson street. Two estab
lishments were badly damaged but no
one was hurt.
The police have been unable to get
any clue 70 the idenity of the person
or persons who threw the bombs. The
first two exploded with a loud roar,
causing a near panic in the vicinity
of Fourth and Stevenson streets. The
police were rushed there in several
patrol wagons and found frightened
crowd Of people in the street. In
vestigation disclosed that one bomb
had been dropped in the saloon at the
corner conducted by Tom Corbett,
brother Of James J. Corbett. The
other was farther down Stevenson
street in Boyer's saloon.
While the police were working on
these two cases a third explosion was
heard on the other side of Market
street in store room at 334 Bush
street that was last occupied by
Nose and Co., a concern convicted of
conducting bucket shop.
The first bomb was dropped through
window into Corbett's saloon while
at Boycrs il was attached to the
knob of the front door The third
bomb was tossed on the roof Of the
store coCm and wrecked tne roof, but
did not drop into the building it
self.

PARTY SPLIT WIDE OPEN.

The following from the New York
Press is suggestive:
So far as Mr.. Roosevelt is concern
ed, it yet remains to be proved that
his victory at the primaries over Mr..
Taft warrants the conviction that over
Il Democratic nominee for President
he could as easily score victory at
the polls on election day. We believe
that if Col. Roosevelt had not been
his chief competitor, Senator La Fol
lette could have vanquished the Pres
ident at popular primaries, as the Col
onel has done. We believe that Sen
ator Cummins could have done this.
We believe there are dozens of Re-
publicans that could have done it.
Mr.. Taft, we believe, was always
too weak with the voters to win over
any prescntable candidate. 1t has
been his weakness which has brought
him defeat after defeat. But Taft
weakness does not necessarily mean
Roosevelt strength. Where Mr.. Taft
was not the chief competitor in North
Dakota, Col. Roosevelt did not show
strength; he showed weakness. In
Wisconsin, where there was an active
rival, the Colonel was not in the
race at all. In Massachusetts,, where
the Republicans cared for neither the
President nor the Colonel, Mr.. Roose-
Welt showed no strength.
Before Mr.. Roosevelt, with all his
victories over Mr.. Taft, can be called
strong, it must be seen that the hun
dreds of thousands Of Republicans
who dread and hate him can somehow
be induced to vote for his election to
the White House, when they now SC
earnestly declare that they would vote
for any Democrat before they woulc
consent to the return Of the Colone
to the Chief Magistracy of the ma
ton.
In the Republican party today there
is a Roosevelt split, just as in three
campaigns and at as many election
there was, in the Democratic party,
Bryan split. What reason is there t
believe that the Republican party
split wide open over Mr.. Roosevelt
would be more formidable at the poll
than ever was the Democratic party
split wide open over MIR. Bryan?

Fatally Wounds Wife and Chases
Father in-Law Through
Fields.
SENDS BULLET THROUGH HEAD
Murderer Crawls Through Window
into Room of Wife and her Mother
and Opens Fire Gil Them.

Buffalo, n. Y, June 1.-Angered
because he believed the influence of
his wife's family had caused her to
leave him, Glen d. Staples, 35, a
farm hand, To-Day killed his mother
in-law, Mrs. NJ. Fillmore Brown, and
probably fatally wounded his wife.
He then chased his father-in-law, F.
f. Brown through the fields in his
night clothing, and when Brown elud-
ed him, sent bullet through his own
head, dying instantly. The tragedy
took place on the Brown farm at An
COLA, % miles from here early today.
Staples quarreled with his mother
in-law ten days ago and was ordered
from the place. He tried to induce
his wife to join him but she refused.
He then chased his father-in-law,
dow into the bedroom where his wife
and her mother were sleeping and op-
ened fire on the defenceless women.
His first shot killed his mother-in in-law.
Then he fired four bullets into his
his wifc's body, inhicting probably
mortal wounds. While he was reload
ing his pistol his father-in-la whed
from the house. Staples chased him
but Brown eluded him and secured
help. Armed farmers found Staples
dead body lying in field short dis
tance from the house.
