sailant was not seen.
The lieutenant, accompanied by his
wife and Miss Ethel Mckenzie OF Phil

miral Mayo aboard the flagship. Re-
turning to the landing place the party
took carriage to drive to the steam
or Moro Castle, on which Mrs. Cook
and Miss Mckenzie were to sail. The
two women occupied the rear seat of
an open victoria, Lieutenant Cook,
conspicuous in full dress while uni

ANXIOUS TO END
WORK BY JUNE |
Leaders Hope to Speed Up
Legislative Program.

Washington, Feb. 16.-Administra-
ton leaders in congress are seeking to
speed up the legislative program. An
effort will be made this week to dis
pose of more of the appropriation
measures. In the senate the postof-
flee bill will be taken up, while the
house will complete the Indian bill.
The Democratic chieftains are be-
ginning to be apprehensive about the
possibility of an early adjournment, so
that members can get into the coming
congressional campaign. 1t is less
than four months until June /, the
tentative objective point of the party
leaders for adjournment, and much
work remains to be done.
While the senate usually disposes
of appropriation bills rapidly there is
a fight in store on the postoffice bill,
owing to the committee amendment
which would take the power from the
postmaster general to change the
rates, weight limits and other features
Of the parcel post system. Several
Democratic senators are planning to
oppose this amendment and if it
passes the senate another battle is
certain in the house.

PROGRESSIVES IN THE FIELD
Decide 70 Nominate Complete State
and Congressional Tickets for

One hundred representatives of the
Progressive party in Minnesota met
at the Merchants hotel at St. Paul

adopted, which virtually constitute
the party's platform. w. T. Coe of
Minneapolis headed the resolutions
committee.
The principles of the Minette and
Nolan bills were endorsed for the
present"
The platform also proposes a law
requiring that estimates of the cost of
government shall be set out in a pro-
posed budget printed and circulated
long enough before election for the
people to inspect it before voting. 1t
also recommends that all subordinate
state employees be placed under civil
service.
The pending constitutional amend
ments for the initiative, referendum
and recall were characterized as the
most important measures before the
people.
The conference went on record as
reaf6rming allegiance to the national
Progressive platform. The Progress
sives condemn vigorously all fusion

Prospective candidates for nominal
ton under the Progressive banner
were discussed informally. Among
those mentioned as good gubernato-

Lindbergh of Little Falls, Congress-
man F. M. Nye of Minneapolis and c..

LABOR TROUBLES
PROBABLE CAUSE
Minneapolitan Shot by Two
Men in Auto.

AS Joseph Bayerle of Minneapolis,
thirty-six years of age, was boarding
car on his way to work two men
drove up in an automobile and fired
at him from behind with pistols.
One bullet lodged in Bayerle's left
arm and the other in his right thigh.
He will recover.
Stopping to see Bayerle stagger
against the gates of the street car
and fall into the arms of passenger
the men in the automobile dashed
away at full speed.
Bayerle is employed as foreman at
Levin Bros upholstering plant, where
there has been labor troubles since
the first of the year. He says he be-
lieves the men who shot him were
disgruntled employees who were dis
charged.
The attack was executed with such
dispatch that neither the conductor
nor motorman was able to secure the
number of the machine or a descrip-
ton of the assailants.

New York, Feb. ia snow storm
rivalling in severity the famous biz

Hudson valley, the Mohawk valley and
the Northern and Western parts Of
New York state. Many of the smaller
railroad and trolley lines were tied
up and communication generally para
lyzed.
Toward night the fall of snow
ceased in many districts, only to be
followed by return to the zero
weather and high winds which have
had New York state in their grip for
four days. Four deaths were caused
in this city by the storm and the total
fatalities due to the recent cold spell

While the snowfall in the metropo.

was fourteen inches in thickness and
from points north and west of that

from twenty-four to thirty-six inches

Reports from most of these points

House, Stricken.

sons Inauguration.
HAD BEEN SLIGHTLY I'LL

Washington, Feb. 14.-Augustus o.
Bacon, United States senator from
Georgia for nearly nineteen years and
chairman of the foreign relations COM
mittee since the ascendancy of the
Democratic party March 4. 1913, died
in hospital here today after an ILL.,
ness of ten days. He was the first
United States senator by direct vote
of the people under the seventeenth
constitutional amendment.
Though Senator Bacon had been
seriously i'll with kidney trouble and
complications developed from a broken
rib his death was unexpected. It came
suddenly at 2 o'clock in the afternoon
and news of the end fell upon the
senate as q shock while it was in ex-
ecutive session.
The immediate cause of the sena-
tors death was diagnosed as a blood
clot in the heart. Throughout the
morning he had been in good spirits
and it was announced to his colleagues
that he was feeling better than for
several days. Physicians had deter.
mined that an operation which had
been contemplated was unnecessary.
Despite his seventy-tive years it ap-
peared that the affliction from which
he suffered was of recent origin and
specialists believed it would yield to
treatment. This conclusion relieved
| considerably the anxiety of his friends
and associates in congress.
Senator Bacon's demise comes at a
time when general arbitration treaties
with foreign nations are to be taken
up for disposition, the treaties with
Great Britain and Japan being of prin
cipal concern to the administration.

Pietro killed Josephine because he
loved her. His efforts to regain her

He waited under a stairway, where

he shot her. Then he gave himself
