K. < H. BILL IS PASS
 ED BY SENATE
Final Passage Came Only After Stiff Fight, in Which Senator Kenyon Expressed His Views Most FOrcibly.

Washington, May 29-The senate passed today the rivers and harbcrs bill carrying approximately $43,000,- 900 by a vote of 35 to 32, after add ing many amendments. The bill will now go to a conference of the two houses. The fight against it, begun by Senators Kenyon and sherman, gained strength until a final effort to displace it with a substitute ap- propriating lump sum of $30,000,- 900, was defeated by only one vote. Senators Ashurst, Gore, Hollis, Hust- ing, Lane, Newlands, Thomas, Pitt man, Pomerene, Taggart, and Thomp- son, all Democrats, voted with the Republicans to send the bill back to the committee.
 Just before the final vote Senator Kenyon predicted it would be the last of, it's kind to pass an American con- gress. You are voting at least $2G- 000,000 into this bill that is absolute ly unjustifiable," said Senator Ken yon. You are dumping thousands of dollars into streams you could rot recognize when you cross them. Your motto is Let the people squeal, want to say that if the price of my seat in congress is voting this kind of bills, the seat may go,"
 Shortly hefore the hill wSa placed upon it's final passage the Newlands amendment to create a national Wa terways commission was stricken from the bill on a renewed point of order by Senator Gallinger. Senators Tfllman and Thomas, Democrats, sought to cast negative votes but could not transfer their pairs.
 Southern Republicans voted 1or the bill,
 The bill as it passed the house carried approximately $40,0OO,C0O Chief among senate additions were appropriations for the harbors at Los Angeles, Long Beach and San Diego California;; Duluth and Superior of Lake Superior. An appropriation oi $200,000 for deepening the East River, New York, was the only pew project inserted.

I. R. READY FOR BUS-
 MESS AT CHICAGO
Movement is Under Way Have Name of Justice First to be Be Presented Before the Con- ventiOn.

Chicago, May 29.--- Republican Roosevelt headquarters were opered in Chicago today by Herbert L. Sat terlee and Lawrence Graham of New York, and active work of getting del egates votes for the candidate began. The headquarters were opened sev- eral hours before Colonel Roosevelt arrived here en route to Kansas City.
 George l.. von Meyer, former sec retary of the navy, is expected in Chi cago tomorrow to assume charge of the pre-convention for Roosevelt.
 Indications are that the plan of Frank H. Hitchcock to have the name of Chas. E. Hughes presented at the Republican national convention as the first candidate may result in an in- teresting fight between Root, Roose- welt and Hughes forces. Hitchcock s arrangement is that when the roll of states is called to have nomina- tions for president, to have Ala bama, the first on the list, yield in favor of the New Yorker so that Hughes may have the advantage of having his name presented first.
 Friends of Root and Roosevelt, when they learned of the plan, de- clared that they would attempt to get recognition from the chairman to present the name of their candi- dates before Hughes. They said the chairman would be obliged to settle the dispute at the time it arises.
 The total number of contests filed thus far is forty, which involves the right of sixty-two delegates to seats in the convention.
 Secretary Reynolds received notice of contest from the eight delegates at large from Texas. The contest will be heard by the committee when it meets to take up contests June 1.
