FOUR STICKS ARE PLACED IN BASEMENT OF DEPARTMENT
 OF AGRICULTURE.
FUSES HAD BURNED OUT
fessed to Placing the Explosives Where They Were Found-5e- leved to Be Unbalanced.

Washington, June 2.-Several hun dred clerks and officials fled in fright from their offices in the de- partment of agriculture today when Daniel V. Jauch, watchman, scur- ried through the corridors shouting that the building was about to be de- stroyed by dynamite.
 Led by Jaudh. several of the cooler headed department officials ran to the basement, where they found four sticks of dynamite on which the fuses had been burned out. Appar- ently an explosion had been averted because the fuses had been damned so tightly into the detonation caps that the fire was extinguished.
 Then came hurried sequel.
 Jauch, who had suffered severe in- juries to his head while serving as a soldier in the Philippines several years ago. was taken to a police s tion and subjected to rigid question. ing. Later the police announced he had admitted that he himself placed the explosives. Department officials said they believed the watchman in- tended to discover" the dynamite before it could do harm, hoping to win promotion for heroism.
 The dynamite had been placed di- reetly beneath the office of Secretary Houston. The secretary was out of town, but immediately across the cor ridor from his office Assistant Secre- tary Galloway and several other off cials were working.
 Jauch has been employed for five years in the department. Frequently he has been under treatment of phy- sicians at the Soldiers Home and has been compelled to take several leaves of absence. The police said Jauch told them that he purchased the dynamite ill Springfield. Ohio. his home town. He recently returned from there after visit.
 Jauch's army record was not avail able here tonight. He told officials ,and fellow workmen. however, that he had served as a private in the Philippines and It was said he drew a pension of $3O month.

Progressives in New York Do Not
 Enthuse Over Him.

EnthuSe ONef Fln.
 New York, June 2-'1ln my opinion, '' said Theodore Douglas Robinson, New York state Progressive chairman, in q statement issued today, the Pro gressiyes of New York state have no intention of nominating Charles s. Whitman for governor
 Mir Robinson's statement was call ed forth by Mir Whitmal's formal an- nouncement that he was s candidate for the Republican nomination for governor and the declaration of Charles II. Duell. Jr, Roosevelt leader, that a movement was on foot to enter nonpartisan ticket headed by the New York district attorney in the state primaries of the Progressive party.
 Mr. Duell said today that while he had received positive assurance from Colonel Roosevelt that he would sup. port a movement to clean up New York; he did not mean to say that the Colonel had committed himself definitely to Whitman He thought it possible that the situation might so shape itself that another than Mir Whitman would be put at the head of the ticket which it is proposed to name at a non-partisal mass meeting in Syracuse next month.

Wash ing n.-Commodity rates
from Atlantic seaboard points to Den
yer and other cities between the Mis-
were materially reduced by an order
of the United States Supreme Court
in its intermountain rate cases.
The Supreme Court held that the
present charges of carriers for such
commodities as cotton. for example,
were very much too disproportionate,
and that while the railroads had a
right to charge more for short hauls
than they do for long hauls over the
same route, under competitive condi-
tions that higher charge should be
equable.
Transcontinental railways won their
fight for title. to $700,000,000 worth OF
oil lands when the Supreme Court
held void the clause in the patents
making the land revert to the govern
ment If found to contain minerals.
The court held that the patents
were irregular but that they could not
be attacked collaterally-by other
claimants-but could be set aside only
by direct attack by the government.
In brief, decision rendered by the
Supreme Court follows:
Rates-Government wins in inter-
mountain rate cases. Interstate Com
merce Commission order upheld.
Oil Lands-Transconti rail-
roads win their fight for title to oil
lands worth s7OO,OOO,0O0. Clause in
patents making land revert to govern
ment If found to contain minerals, is
held void.
Tobacco Pool-Kentucky statute
making it legal for farmers to pool
their tobacco is annulled as unconsti-
tutional.
Catholic Orders-Decision of Court
of Appeals which held that the vows
of poverty in Catholic orders were
void, as against public policy, is re-
versed.
Sugar Case-Request of State of
Louisiana to enjoin secretary OF
treasury from continuing to grant to
