CUBAN SENATE DEFrEs U. S.
Approves Bill Granting Amnesty to Stay
er of Police Chief.

Havana, Dec. 1.-THE Senate has ap.
proved the bill previously passed by the
House, granting amnesty to Ernesto As
bert, ex-governor of Havana province,
who was sentenced to IL years in prison
and TO pay fine of $4,000 for his con
nection with the murder of Chief Of Po-
lice Riva.
On July II, 1913, in broad daylight on
the Prado in Havana Ashert, Senator
Vidal Morales and Representative Eu-
geniO Arias went up TO Riva and accord
ing to the association. shot him 20 death.
The conviction of Asbert. and the pur-
pose of the Senate and House 90 pardon
him, have even tsirred diplomats rela-
tions between Cuba and the United
States.
When the House passed the bill Con-
gresham Arias was included. Amer-
can Minister Gonzales assured President
Menocal that the United States had no
objections 10 the granting Of amnesty
to Asbert. but that such course regard
ing Arias was an entirely different mat
ter because Arias had confessed that he
killed Riya and that Asbert had not fired
a shot

MUCH MYSTERY IN
ILLNESS OF KAISER
Some Dispatches Say He is Threatened
With Pneumonia; Others Declare
He is Suffering From Mental
Depression.

London, Dee. 1.-THE reported illness
OF Emperor William continues to be va
riously described here. Some dispatch
es say it is serious. and perhaps pneu-
monia, while Others declare he is'a vic
tim of mental depression or that he is
suffering from fever, chills, and influenza.
About all that is definitely known be-
yond the official bulletin admitted that
his majesty is suffering from bronchial
catarrh is that the emperor has returned
quietly and unexpectedly TO Berlin.
1t is noted that the emperor's arrival
at Berlin last Thursday night as a sick
man. threatened with nervous break
down, was his first visit to the capital
since the beginning of the war
The German newspapers of Friday,
Saturday and Sunday, which have just
arrived here, make no mention of his
name beyond the brief announcement
that the emperor had returned TO Ber-
lin. This apparently indicates that the
news of his illness was suppressed until
danger was past.

But the Industrial Relations
Commission Contin-
ues Inquiry
SOME INTERESTING
TESTIMONY GIVEN
BY Sheriff Jefferson Farr
and Rev. James Nc
Donald

Denver, Col, Dec 1.-THE order termi
mating the Colorado coal miners strike
went into effect at midnight Wednesday
night and the period of Colorado's indus
trial unrest was generally considered at
an end.
The federal commission on industrial
relations, nevertheless, proceeded yester-
day with its investigation of the strike.
Perhaps the most important testimony
Wednesday was that of Jefferson Farr,
sheriff of Huerafano county, who said he
had commissioned 1926 deputies of unknown
citizenship.
Rev. James Mcdonald, mechanic and
ordained Methodist minister of Hastings
and Aguilar mine camps, who was at
Aguilar during the burning OF Ludlow
told of passing As hours on the prairie,
clothing refugee families of the miners.
The Victor American Coal Co. opposed
his church work. as it had the Presbyte-
rian worker who had preceded him. He
testified he did not believe the opposi-
ton was personal or denominational, but
because the company feared the miners
might become enlightened as to their
rights.
He had never urged unionism in his
sermons nor had the company attempted
to influence his sermons, he said.
Since his testimony at an investigation
at Walsenburg he said he had received
communications threatening
physical violence.

"WHITE HOUSE" BABY
EXPECTED CHRISTMAS
Mrs. Sayre, Daughter of President Will
son at the White House
Next Week.

Washington, Dec. ll.-President Will
son is planning a reunion of the members
of his family at the White House on
the holidays. As all public functions,
especially the public reception New
Years day, have been cancelled because
the president is in mourning, he has been
able to enjoy the uninterrupted company
of his daughters for the first time since
Mrs. Wilson's death.
Incidentlly it is possible that there will
be another white House" baby. He
or she--may be a Christmas gift too.
Mrs, Francis b. Sayre, the presidents
daughter, whose home is at Williams
town, Mass, will probably reach here
some time next week. She will remain
with her father for considerable time,
and it is therefore likely that the new
arrival, expected about Christmas viii
be born in the White House

Wilson and two daughters, spent the

Secretary Daniels Recon-
mends Program to
Committee
PRESIDENT WITH
HIM, HE SAYS
Should Make Navy Power
full by Orderly Pro
gression

Washington Dec. ll.-Secretary Dan
iels was the star witness yesterday be
fore the House naval committee.
Il have recommended this year that
we continue the regular and normal con
struction recommended last year" sale
the secretary.
ut seems to me wise policy for steady
enlargement This includes two dread
noughts, six destroyers, eight submarines
or more, one of sea-going and seven or
more of the coast defense type, one gun
boat and one oiler. The president APP
proves this"
Mr.. Daniels characterized as "extrava-
CANT suggestions that in the light OF the
European experience there should be 100
submarines and so battleships.
The president he said, believes lin the
steady development of the navy"
"The president" he added, recon
mended that Congress make the navy
more powerful in the orderly way that
we did at the last Congress"
For the first time for many years the
navy strength OF personnel is full. OF
every six men offered for service we have
declined five. ] am not asking for men at
this Congress. We must, however, add
them as we add to the ships. At the
next session of Congress, | shall ask for
men.
ut is necessary to have enough men at
this time to man all the ships in the
navy. We have on every ship in ordi
nary and in reserve enough men to care
for them We ought to have not more
than 200 OF our ships in commission at
one time. We have 229 in all. We have
now 90 per cent of our fighting force in
full commission and we'll keep that up.
Secretary Daniels said he was asking
this Congress to authorize a reserve uf
former sailors of the navy, which, he
said, would in 10 days time produce 25,- |
900 picked men for service"
Universal disarmament, Mr.. Daniels |
thought practicable, but only by interna
tional agreement.
''In my last report" he said, Il ok
pressed the hope that the day would |
come when this feverish haste and COM /
petition in costly engines of destruction
would stop, and that if this rivalry goes
on the burden will become too heavy for |
any nation to bear"
Wouldn't we be in better position 70
propose disarmament if we were to stop
heavy building programmes ?" asked Rep
resentative Butler.
NO" replied the secretary ut would
be unwise for us TO act to-day in any
particular as we would not have acted if
there had been no war in Europe. After
the European war is over, we will learn
great many lessons. 1t would be great
mistake if we were to say that because
we hope for universal disarmament we
should stop now. We would be in a
much better position if we continued con
struction than if we were to quit now"
