During the day the petitions to
recall Commissioners Walter NJ.
Connell, J. T. Mclaughlin and J..
NJ Reynolds and to amend the city
charter so that the city manager
might not discharge a city employe
solely because of membership in a
union were circulated. BY last
night over 700 signatures had been
received to each. While this num-
ber is enough to necessitate the
recall elections on the commission
ers, 1t is not sufficient for the
amendment. Labor leaders say
that they will continue the circu-
lation of the petitions until 1900
names are secured for each.
Mass Meeting Tonight.
Interest will undoubtedly focus
on the mass meeting called for to-
night in the high school audito-
rum. The meeting is scheduled
to open at s o'clock and a lively
session is anticipated. The sub
ject will be the firemen's contro-
versy. The offer of the unionists
to return to work and the resigna-
tion of Fire Chief Russell are ex-
pected to furnish topics for debate.
The meeting is being called by the
Central Labor Union.
Labor leaders declared last night
that there was no truth IN the
rumor that members of the organ
ization We're weakening. They ad-
mitted that certain members had
been in the city hall to talk over
the situation but asserted that
there was no suggestion Of sur
render and no request for employ
ment.

After serving in the depart

twelve years it seems only appro-

pie we both serve my reasons for
resigning. At the outset, l wish TO
make it clear that my action is
taken after due deliberation and is
not prompted by any feeling of ILL
will toward you or the commission,
nor by any petty motive. Since the
unhappy incidents of the past few
days have arisen | have made an
honest effort to make an organi-

have placed at my disposal in the
way of firemen, and l find that il

Passage or the measure came at
the end of a stormy session, during
which a handful of democrats.
aided by q few republicans, had
harassed the leaders of the repub-
can side persistently. For more
than four hours charges that the
republicans had bowed to the die
tation OF the senate" were hurled,
not only by Representative Garrett,
Tennessee, acting democratic lead
or, but by Representative Newton,
Minnesota, and Representative
Luce, Massachusetts,, both repub-
leans, as well.
Wide Split Revealed.
Heated discussion marked the
tariff debate, which revealed a
wide split in the Texas delegates.
Several Louisiana members also
supported it. The discussion was
particularly pointed when Repre-
sentative Connolly, democrat,
Texas, chided his colleague, Repre-
sentative Hudspeth, for "deserting
his party"
Besides Mr.. Hudspeth, the roll
call showed the following demo-
Gratis voting for the tariff:
Parrish, Blanton and Jones' of
Texas; Duprenfavrot, Martin and
Iazaro, of louisiana; Smithwick,
Georgia; Taylor, Colorado; Lee,
California; Clark, Florida; Lank-
ford, Georgia, and Deal. Virginia.
Republicans voting against the
bill included:
Stafford, Wisconsin; Tinkham,
Massachusetts,; Perlman, Volk,
Ryan and Siegel, of New York;
Luce, Massachusetts,, and Keller,
Michigan.
Fordney Stands Pat.
Chairman Fordney, of the ways
and means committee. precipitated
the charges of senate dictation
when he declared the senate would
accept no changes in the bill as It
was passed last session, not so
much as "a crossing of a e or the
dotting of an l..
"Those are instruction" he add
ed.
Mr.. Newton, who had the floor,
retorted that he would not sur
render judgment and intelligence
both on a question on which he
felt he was right. "senate orders
notwithstanding"
'I don't propose to have the
house accept the dictation of the
other body" he! exclaimed.
THAT admission by Mr.. Fordney
is the most amazing l have heard
in my eighteen years experience in
the house.
Gardner Takes n Hand.
Representative Gardner of Texas,
shouted, at appears that the con-
stitution is being violated, for it
says explicitly that revenue meas
ures must originate in the house,
and here we have the chairman of
the ways and means committee ad-
mitting frankly that the bill was
dicated by the senate. n
And, further, Mr.. Fordney's
statement that hereafter no bill
can be amended in this house #
the senate leaders will that it shall
not be changed It means we must
bow to the senator's wishes wheth-
er or not amendments have merit"
BilPs Foes Moved Down.
The republicans downed every at
tempt to make changes. Republi-
cans who sought to amend the bill
were disposed of with the same
celebrity as democrats. and the bill
now goes to the senate.
The bill as passed by the house
is practically identical with, the

CBy The Associated Press.)

Chicago, April 15.-Sam Cardi-
nella, master mind of a gang Of
thieves and murderers, and Jo-
seph Costanzo and Salvatore Fer
rera, all convicted of murder, were
hanged here today. Cardinella
broke down this morning on learn
ing that Antonio Lopez, who was
to have been executed with him,
had been reprieved last night by
Governor Small. The drop fell for
Cardinella at 1926 a. m.
The self-boasted bad man" col
lapsed entirely when he reached
the gallows and it was necessary to
carry him to the platform and
strap him in chair, 80 that the
moose might be adjusted.
The execution of the other two
men was delayed twenty minutes
The drop fell for them at 1O:45
a. m.
AS Cardinella was carried to the
seaffold, his head swayed from
side to side and his eyes were
closed when the shroud was placed
about him. He apparently was un-
conscious. A few minutes before,
when the sheriff entered the cell
to read the death warrant, Cardt-
nella tainted. Ferrera and Costan-
20, however, displayed little emo
ton and walked to the scaffold un-
assisted.

the second half. Harlin and Hall are
good men for close up work, but
Montrose didn't play that way.
Montrose always hit the basket
when they had the ball. which ac-
counted for their long end of the
score.
The Montrose team will likely COM
pete in the State meet at Boulder as
champions of the Western Slope. They
may be crippled the rest of the season
by the loss of Coach Beattie, who has
resigned and taken on with Grand
Junction.
Coach Beattie admitted after the
game that Gunnison was easily the
second best team on the Slope. With
Everette Miller who is in the Salida
hospital, as center, Coach Krause is
confident that Gunnison would have
walked off with the game.
The lineup was as follows:

The Northwest Indians nearly al

probably due more to the fact that
the wood Is easy TO work and e1-

LUXE M,LUKE SAYS

Funny how man can't carry an um- brella over his wife and keep her dry the way he used to before they were married.
 The ostrich reminds you of some men, in that it has wonderful stomach but not much of head.
 And once in while the honeymoon doesn't last as long as the wedding tour.
 Another poor way to waste time IS to try to decide an argument in a manner satisfactory to both sides.
 Love may be blind for while. But when a third party enters. love can seq from New York to Chicago.
 There are some ss.576 kinds of fools. And some men try to be all of them at once.
 When man wiAs $10 gambling he tells everybody but his wife that 1t was $100 he won
 It doesn't do a corn fed girl much good to get broken heart. She can'r pine away gracefully like thin girl.
 A man will pay no attention to the 90 bills that he owes. But you should hear him scream in sanctified indigna- tion when one comes in that he does not owe.
 The girl of 80 knows that she isn't cheapening herself any when she mar ks herself down to 23.
 Even the longest day in the year is too short to waste any of 1t in nursing a grouch.
 You wouldn't mind lending man money to tide him over if you were cer- tain that he would come up with the tide.
