native Of OConce. and was reared
by poor but worthy parents near
Fort Madison. Though being severe
ly wounded in the war he lived TO be
70 years Old.
In 1889 James A. Doyle. of Fort
Madison, employed Mr.. Norris to

ASSOCIATED PRESS DISPATCH l

WASHINGTON, July 12.-Rain in the fourth and fifth innings of the congressional baseball game today at the American league park was the only thing that stopped the democrats from defeating the republicans worse than twenty nine to four. All efforts of the republicans who were helped out by a few democrats were unavail- ing to stop the hard hitting of the democrats. The curves of Repre- sentative Webb of North Carolina could not be solved by the cepubIi- cans while the democrats had no trouble in finding the delivery of Representative Patton of Pennsyl- vania who appeared unable to obtain unanimous consent to get a strike across the plate.

Ferdinand AssaSsinated?

LONDON, July 12.-A Vienna dis patch to the Exchange Telegraph company says:
 Ut is rumored here but not con- firmed that a revolution has broken out in Sofia and King Ferdinand has been assassinated.
 The secretary of the Bulgarian le- gation said late tonight he had re- ceived no message from Sofia in in dication of a revolutionary outbreak or indicating that King Ferdinand had been assa assinated The last official telegram received by the legation was sent from Sofia at 9:14 this evening.
 King Constantine's protest to the civilized world against the Bulgarian atrocities destroys the last hope of those who believe that Russia would succeed in inducing the belligerents to accept arbitration.
 Spectators of the struggle have been confident throughout that Ser via would prove amenable to the counsels of moderation in view of the appalling losses sustained in ejecting the BuIgarians from Macedonia but if is less hopeful that~a Greece will listen to reason, her people and her army are obviously intoxicated with victories over the dreaded Bulgaria

Messages Between Phoenix and Los Angeles Dealing Directly With Roger Sher- man Show Owners to Be Ready for Settlement

The action of the corporation com mission of Arizona in going over the head of Manager Mitchell of the Phoe- nix Street Railway company and con ferring directly with Roger P. Sher man, personal representative of Gen eral sherman, the owner of the road appears likely to be provocative of re- suits in the settlement of the street car strike From teIegrams that passed be- tween Commissioner A. w. Cole who is conducting the negotiations with the striking car men here, and COmmfs- sioner F. A. Jones who is doing the same with Roger P. Sherman in Los Angeles, it seems that the only hitch that remains between the parties now
 is the reinstatement of William Ward. upon which the carmen have refused to budge.
 That this can be easily removed as a difficulty is believed by the corpora ton commission who it is understood after some consideration of the situa- ton with members of the committee of the merchants and manufacturers as sociation learned that there are many men in Phoenix who are willing to do their best to get Ward a position else where, that will be just as lucrative and honorable as that of a conductor on the Phoenix street car. With this as starter it is not likely that Ward himself will hold out as two weeks ago it was understood that he had agreed to
 waive any personal claim he might have, and in his speech at the M. & M.
 mass meeting on Friday night at the
 Y. M. c. A., John COrrigan, speaking
 for the strikers, said that MT. Ward had agreed to waive but that the car
 men were unwilling that he should From the exchange of telegrams be- tween Commissioner Jones and Cole it is learned that Roger sherman has agreed to all the propositions made eX- cept that of the reinstatement of Ward while in a message direct to Commissioner Cole MT. Sherman has said that the statement of the street car men as contained in Coles telegram appears to be favorable.

BRYAN HAS NEW
 PROPOSAL FOR
 HIS PEACE PLAN
Would provide for Disput- ants to Maintain Status Quo as to Military and Naval Preparations Dur ing Investigation

WASHINGTON, July 12.-The pro posal to maintain a status quo as to the military and naval prepara- tions among the disputants during the period of investigation of inter- national differences, constitutes the third and final proposal of Secretary Bryan's peace plan. In making a portion of the proposal public today Secretary Bryan said the obligation to maintain status quo would not be obligatory in the event of danger to either of the two contracting parties from a third party.
 The proposal which was submitted to twenty nations, which accepted his plan in principle as well as to the other nineteen nations who have not yet been heard from, follows:
 This government is prepared to consider the question of maintaining status quo as to military and naval preparations during a period Of in- vestigation if the contracting nation desires to include this and this gov ernment suggests tentatively that the parties agree that there be no change in the military or naval program during the period of investigation un- less danger to one of the contra cting parties from a third party cOmpels a change in the program in which case the party feeling itself menaced by a third power will confidentially com municatc the matter in writing to the other contracting party and shall theTcupOn be released from the obli- gation not to change it's military or naval program. this release at the same time to operate as release to the other contracting parties. This pro tects each party from other ordinary cases and yet provides freedom of action in emergencies"
 The proposals previously announced provide for an international commis- sion of five members one from each of the contracting countries to be chosen by the government, one to be chosen by each of the contracting countries from some other country and the fifth to be agreed upon by the two contracting governments. One year is suggested as the proper time for the investigation of a subject un- der dispute
