ANOTHER STORM FORMING.
Decided Drop in Temperature Expect.
ed After Disturbance Shall Have
Passed.

The havoc was caused in the Middle
West not by single disturbance, but
there were series of equinoctial gales
of varying intensity which swept
through Missouri Valley and Middle
West, leaving ruin in ttneir path. At
least six States sustained heavy DAM
age. Towns in Iowa, Illinois, Kansas
Oklahoma and Missouri were shaken.
Another storm is now developing
west of the Rocky Mountains and IS
predicted to paEs over the east tonlgnt
or tomorrow.
Storm warnings from Hatteras to
Eastport on the Atlantic and cold
wave warnings in the West Lake reg
ion, the middle and upper Mississippi
valleys have been ordered up.
No decided fall in Temperature Is
predicted for the East until after the
passage of the new western storm.
According to the United States
Weather Service it was said last nigh
that here appeared to be little danger
, that the storm which had been oe
stroying lives and property in the Ma
die west would strike ,this latitude.
The storm has taken northeastern!
course and is now sweeping up the 81
Lawrence Valley. The highest veloc
ity reached by the wind in this vfcinit.

UNyEIL MEMORIAL PICTURE.
Painting in Memory of Former Alex
andrian Unveiled in Atlanta.

According to the Atlanta Constitu-
tion, st. Luke's Cathedral in Adlsnta
was crowded to overfowing at Easter
morning service to witness the unveil-
ing of mural painting in memory Of
the late Rev. Robert South Barrett,
ID. D., an ahmnus Of the Theo-
logical Seminary near Alexandria and
frequent visitor TO this city in the
years following his graduation.
The picture hangs in an sfcove be-
hind the altar. 1t is IS feet high and
Is feet in width. It was painted by
Edwin Howland Blashfeld, one of the
mcst noted and gifted mulai painters
in the world.
The painting represents the "Buon
Pastore," or "Good Shepherd" In the
center is Christ as Shepherd; while
behind Him follows the sheep: The
idea came toMr. Blashfield after seeing
the shepherds in the east among the
mountains. There are five nedalllons,
two on either side and one above the
centerpiece. The four medal!ionS on
the side represent the four symbols Of
the Evangelists, the Bull, the Lion
the Eagle and the Angel. The medal
lion above the center is the "Word"
represented by an open Bible held by
angels. The border is gothic, in keep
ing with the interior decorations of
the church.
Bishop Nelson made an address on
.Dr. Barrett's work in the ministry and
of his labor in the church while dean
of the Cathedral.

LAST EFFORT FOR MEN

Richmond, Va, March 25.-Floyd
and Claude Allen, father and son, pre-
pared today to expiate in the electric
chair on Friday their participation in
the Hiilsville court room murders.
Their attorneys returned from Wash
ington today after a last desper-
ate effort to have the justices of the
Supreme Court of the United States
stay the death sentence. The con-
demnsd mems only hope now is Gov
ernor Mann of Virginia, and that this
is only faint one is evidenced by the
fact that the state executive has al
ready twice previously refused to
intervene despite thousands of ap-
peals made to himb by letters, tele-
grams and personal conferences.
Superintendent Wood went ahead
with his preparations for the cleo
trocution at Richmond prison today.
The death jury" has already been Sc
lected, but their names are being
kept secret. The Virginia law pro-
hibits publication of the details of
an execution, and every effort will
be made to seal the lips of the twelve
men who are selected as legal wit
nesea to Virginia justice.
The Aliens lawyers were expected
to confer with their clients this af-
ternoon. AS yet they have no infor~
nation as to the failure of their coun-
sci to secure stay.
Governor Mann today received a
resolution unanimously adopted by the
State Prison Board urging him to
commute Claude's Aliens death sent
ence to life Imprisonment. The Gov
ernor took no action on the request to-
day and it was generally believed he
would ignore it.

PRESIDENT WINS
DECIDED VICTORY
ss2s2s
Insists That People, Not
Politicians Have Final
Say on Tariff.
DEFER TO EXECUTIVE.
Will Expedite Rcduction-Mr. Will
sen Tells Underwood That he is
Pledged to Reduce Cost of Living.

Washingthon, March 25.-President
Wilson. through his unofficial declara-
ration that he would insist on the
! psople and not the politicians having
the final say in revising the tarintf
! has won sweeping victory. 1t de-
vcloped today that the congressional
! leaders have agred to subordinate the
; opinions to the Executive. The
Wilson wishes will be the "final
word" in the bill, or bills, to be
pas:ed at the coming extraordinary
session. And the leaders, in both the
senate and the house, have 2greed
that ta";ff reduction will be expedited
so that Ich other legislation as the
Pres dent desires may be considered
in the special session.
Al the executive offices today Pres.
idenc Wilson characterized his con-
ference with leader Underwood last
night as "emnently satisfactory" He
said that whether the revision shall
take the form of single blanket
bill or a series Of measures remains
undecided. But as a general thing,
the President said, the suggested re-
vision is all the party has pledged
itself to carry out.
TIE President flatly told Leader
Underwood that he was elected pledg-
ed 10 reduce the high cost Of living.
Thi: pledge. he said. must be kept II
lis entirety. The Wilson plan Is to
take the tariff off foodstuffs in near
/: ~ cvery instance.
One result Of this action will be
the abolition of the tariff on meat
products. This will prove a smashing
blow at the beef trust. Instead OF
selling meat abroad cheaper than 1t
does here at The present. the trust, ;
under the new tariff. will have to face
competition from the Argentine ran
ches. Figures already prepared lndl-
cate that the actual cost Of beef Will
thus be reduced one-third over pre-
vailing quotations.
Underwodo confirmed the belief
that the President was to have the
finally say by declaring that the tar'lf
bill was not exactly what | would
have drafted if there had
berc nv wishes alone to con-
suit" Underwood, however, m
sisted that there would be harmony
50 far as the tariff was concerned be-
tween the legislative and executive
departments.
Schedule X, the wool protective fea-
tIre of the existing law is to be prac-
tica!!y wiped out, although there Will
probably be retained at least a noml-
nal duty on wool. This, like the meat
schedule. is one of the provisions the
President believes must be practically
obi,crated if the party pledges are
TO he kept. Just how much of the duty
is 10 remain on wool was another
matter postponed until the next con-
ference.
