DISTRICT DELEGATE
Former Chamber of Commerce
Head AssaiIs Congress for
Treatment.

pared to an orphan child that is ''cuffed
about 100 much by Congress by Will
lam F. Guide. former president OF the
chamber of Commerce, who today made
public a statement indorsing District
delegate In Congress. In it he says
there are cases on record where mem
here have lost their seats because II was
necessary for them to neglect their con-
stituel.ts In order TO do work that might
have been more properly performed by
a dele gate.
TT is not because Congress does rot
want to do better by the District,
says Mr. GUIDE, in discussing the in
adequacy OF the present system. but
because of the lack of a thorough I'M
derstanding.
In TIE same connection Hoy G.. Claim.
chairman of the District Delegate AS
sociation, said that If Congress grants
to this community what is evidently its
desire, il will surely pass the Poindexter
bill, which provides for a District rep
resentation, this winter. Regarding the
bill giving suffrage only to those whose
taxes amount to 81 o. more annually,
he said that the association was now
locking up statistics to see what per-
centage of voters that would disqualiiy.
and that it might recommend an amend
ment to the bill In consequence.
The activity of Senator Poindexter
and Mr.. Clafiin in behalf of votes for
the District was heartily indorsed last
night by w. ID. Mackenzie, OF the North
Washington Citizens Association, and
Thomas E. viii, executive secretary Of
the District Equal Suffrage League.
both of whom were speakers at q meet
ing held at Eighth street and Pennsyl-
vania avenue.
Mr. VIII opposed the proposition Of
a property qualification for voters, but
said this feature of the Poindexter
measure could easily be amended.

Caminetti Receives
Reports on Killing

Commissioner General of Immigration
Caminetti today received no official re-
ports on the killing. but he anticipates
that tonight or tomorrow morning he
will have word from Chief Inspector

inasmuch as the immigration offcer and
the customs service officer are under
arrest that the military authorities will
deal entirely with the case.
From newspaper accounts OF the trou-
BILE, he was inclined to believe that the
law of self-defense would apply. ana
consequently unless new facts develop
from Berkshire's report. Mr.. Caminettfs s
department will allow the military au-
thorities to handle the case entirely.
