will content itself with holding the
customs house at Vera Cruz, collecting
duties. and preventing shipment of
arms from reaching Huerta. Tampico
will be the next objective point.
Passage of the resolution by con-
gress has given the president the feel
ing that he is justified in going fur
ther ahead now with aggressive steps,
but he wants to have the full effect of
the seizure of Vera Cruz impressed
upon Huerta with the hope he may
be brought to terms without plunging
further into armed conflict.
No Disorder at Mexico City.
The president had hoped the seizure
of Vera Cruz might have been accom-
plished without shedding American
blood. He is determined. however,
there will be no backward step.

first visitor today. He also showed

The action of the American govern
ment in Mexico has been such as to
invite the contempt of the civilized
world, according to a statement by
Penrose on the floor of the senate
Democratic leaders clamored to de-
fend the president Reed characteriz-
ed Penrose's statement as cheap dem
agogy, and Shafroth said he should be
ashamed Penrose's statement arose
out of Reeds criticism of his 'sneer-
ing" at offers of Spanish war veterans
in Colorado to enlist for Mexican ser
vice. The senate adjourned at 1855

The president signed the resolution
at 2:O5. Only his family was present.

sideration to the subject of providing
war fund.
Current appropriations for the navy
and army, in the view of officials, will
be sufficient for the present, as it
will cost no more to maintain the
fleet in Mexican than in home waters.
In the event of extraordinary expenses
money could be raised, it is pointed
out, as during the Spanish war 1t is
estimated a stamp and beer tax would
add at least one hundred million year
ly to the revenue. Imposition of such
taxes would have to be made by con-
gress. but il is not expected there
would be hesitancy in either house to
reenact certain portions of Spanish
war taxes. No new issue of bonds is
in contemplation. At present the
treasury holds Panama bonds of s24O,-
$4,000 They could be issued at
pleasure by the president and ,secre-
tary of the treasury.

Washington, D. c., April 22.-Speak-
er Clark signed the joint resolution
justifying the president in using armed
forces at 1903 o'clock.
The senate early today, after one
of the most dramatic debates In the
history of the nation, adopted justi-
fication resolution as reported from
the committee on foreign relations.
The resolution is substitute for the
original resolution adopted Monday by
the house, and eliminates all reference
to Huerta-
The house will convene at 10 o'clock
when Chairman Flood of the foreign
affairs committee expects to move
that the house concur in the senate
The house concurred the senate sub
stitute resolution. There was no de-
bate and the viva voce vote was al
most unanimous.
In addressing the house in support |
of the senate substitute Flood said
that when he introduced the original |
resolution Monday it was in proper |
form to carry out the presidents plans. |
THE original made it clear this |
country is not hostile to Mexican peo- !
pie, and does not wish to make war on |
Mexico" said Flood.
Substance Unchanged.
t'The senate amendment states this |
in so many words. The substance of |
the resolution is therefore unchanged |
and in view of the president it would |
be childish to quibble over words. I
fear an attempt has been made by the |
gentlemen on the other side to make |
Dartizan capital out of the situation"
II do not believe we ought to engage |

Des Moines, March 2o-The COM
plete enumeration of Iowa people will
be attempted next year. The COVER
nor and state officials are already Civ
ing considerable time and thought to
the plans for making the taking Of the
state census as complete as possible.
There Is general belief that most Of
that which has been featured in some
places as the loss Of population in
Iowa is due to imperfect census work.
1t Is regarded as certain that II there
is a full count next year II Will show
that Iowa is not suffering in any way.
Governor Clarke rs already taking
steps TO secure the CO. operation OF all
the authorities In the state to the end
that Iowa shall have a perfect census
enumeration. The county officials must
be largely relied on for the enumera-
ton in the rural districts and it is here
that the greatest Losses have been re-
ported in the past. But in the cities
the commercial organizations will be
asked to help. Nearly every city and
town of the state has commercial
club Of some kind Each community Is
interested in having a proper count OF
Its people. 1t is hoped that some plan
can be worked out so that these COM
mercial organizations will be able to
make certain that there Is in every city
and town Of the STATE an enumeration
that will not be questioned as to its
completeness and accuracy
The enumeration Is part of the CEN
sus taking and is under the direct con-
troll of the state executive council. a
special agent will be placed in charge
to handle this work and nothing else.

Peculiar After Effects

Doctors in all parts Of the country
have been kept busy with the epidemic
of grip which has visited so many
homes. The symptoms Of grip this
year are often very distressing and
leave the system in a run down con-

seem to suffer most. as almost every
victim complains Of lame back and

lead to dangerous kidney troubles.

HUNTERS IGNORE LAW.
Sioux City Men Staying Ducks Despite
Federal Statute.

Sioux City. March 20.-The federal
law prohibiting the shooting of migra-
tory birds probably will not be en-
forced in Sioux City territory. judging
from the attitude taken by federal and
state officials.
F. A. Blanchard. deputy United
States marshal asserted that he had
10 Instructions from the department
Of Justice to arrest hunters for shoot
ing Of birds and that he would not take
the initiative in making the arrests.
He stated, however, II the game war
dens would swear out warrants Tor the
arrest Of violators Of the law he would
serve them.
Charles A. Smith. deputy state game
warden for the Sioux City district, de-
clared that he had orders from E. Z.
Hinshaw. Of Spirit Lake, state game
and fish warden, not to arrest anyone
for violating the federal statute.
THE text of Mr.. Hinshaw's letter.
said Deputy Game Warden Smith. was
to the effect that the state had issued
in good faith licenses to hunters to
shoot game birds and that as Tar a.
we are able we should keep our word
The deputy game warden stated that
he had heard that a number OF sioux
City hunters had been out hunting and
shot ducks, but that he had not seer
anyone shooting them. If he did, ne
he said, he would not arrest them.
Sioux City hunters are DESTROYS OF
knowing whether the government IN
tends to enforce the law, as the an
nual spring fight Of migratory birds
now is under way and some gooo
shooting is being missed. There are
some who have braved the federal laws
and have been rewarded by good bags
The fight Of ducks and other birds
is unusually heavy this spring loca
shots aver, and large flocks Of ducks
may be seen flying over Sioux City al
most any time Many Of these focks
stop over IN the inland waters In and
about Sioux City.

not yet decided whether this parish
house shall be an entirely separate
building in the rear of the churcn or
shall be an extension OF the north emo
Of the church to the east. When com
pleted It will give greatly enlarged
quarters for the. growing Sunday
school, a study for the pastor rooms
for missionary. Christian Endeavor.
and other church societies. and read
ing and recreation rooms for the boys
and girls, which it is planned to nave
open every day and evening IN the
week.
In other improvements mentioned
the sums to be expended are mucn
greater than there stated. The woman's
dormitory at the college has never
been estimated to cost less that sleo.-
900 and that Is probably $4,000 less
than II will actually cost Tho Mer-
chants National Bank building on the
corner Of Broad street and Fourth
avenue. probably will cost not less
than ssO.000-possibly $4,000 more
The Herald building Is estimated al
$4,000 with the admission that II Is
quite likely to cost $4,000 more. On the
same block on Fifth avenue Walter
Hastings Is now contemplating the
election Of a three story brick at a
probable cost of $4,000. He already
has a person ready to sign ten-yea'
lease of the entire third story at a
good rental figure. Frank Clifford Of
Hotel Monroe has already paid $l0,Oot
for the ground on which to put tho 81
foot extension to the hotel and the I'm
provements will cost about 5000
more. II tho Laros Company conclude
to rebuild their burned factory the cos'
when ready to begin manufacturing vii
be not less than $4,000. The new Wes1
side sewer, of which the final survey
is now making, with its east side con.
nection and the septic tank and filtel
bed to purify the sewage will cost mo-
less than $4,000.
Another improvement now being
earnestly and persistently pushed II
that Of paving the approach on the
north to the new cement bridge at the
entrance to Hardwood cemetery. The
deep cut made there to make the fl
for the approach to the bridge has lef'
/ the steep banks in such shape thai
every rain washes down tons Of dir
on the roadway and in a wet time thu
road becomes quagmire Some
thousands VIII have to go into that l.
it is done. Paving also in other parts
of the city 10 seriously contemplated
and prominent citizens are c!a1lor!2e
to have it done in front Of their ow.
property. Especially is there genera
call to have the avenues between ths
streets already paved put into the same
good condition for driving as are tbs
streets.
On the whole these improvements o.
a business and public nature are
scheduled to witness the expenditure
in a very near future OF considerable.
over a half million dollars in this city
