Reciprocity Passes House:
Goes Through in Form it Came From Com-
mittee.
President Taft won a substantial
victory when the house of repregenta-
| tives passed the Canadian recip‘ocity
| agreement by a vote of 266 to 89. The
| bill got 45 more votes than it did in
| the last session, the vote on its for-
| mer passage having been 221 to 92.
Seventy-eight Republicans, one less
| than a majority of representatives of
that party in the house, voted against
| the measure. Sixty-four Republicans
upheld the hand of the administration.
Eleven Democrats deserted their party
organization by voting against the ad-
ministration bill.
|" The bill, which has President Taft's
entire approval, practically is identi-
| cal with that submitted at the last
session.
In the course of the debate on the
| measure, amendments for free lum'.~r.
fresh meat, canned meat, shingles and
laths were voted.down om the ground
that they would break the Canadian
agreement.
The debate was concluded with the
| speeches of the three leaders in the
fight, Representatives Underwood, of
Alabama: McCall, of Massachusetts,
and Dalzell, of Pennsylvania. Crowded
galleries heard the concluding speech-
es, Mrs. Taft occupying a seat in the
executive gallery. ttt
Representative McCall declared that
i
| been pushed-forward to hide the real
gests opposed to the agreement.
He that he spoke in behalf of all
‘Rep! ns who were in favor of the
| meastre. He ridiculed the “eulogies
| upon the farmers,” which he said had
characterized the majority of the
| speeches against reciprocity.
| “The farmer is not the sad-eyed
| monstrosity that he has been painted
| in the house,” declared the speaker.
| “Phe opening up of the cheap lands
‘of Canada to United States markets
‘ would not be injurious to this coun-
| try,” said Mr. McCall
{ In a final attack on the bill Mr.
| Dalzell, of Pennsylvania, declared the
| agreement had been made without au-
| thority of law; that it had been made
| without popular desire for it and un-
| der the guise of a measure to reduce
! the cost of living. He held that neither
the president nor Congress had the
‘right to make an agreement with a
i foreign country involving revenue
questions.

Second Body Found In Creek.
Spa creek gave up the second of the
bodies to the dual mystery that has
baffled the Annapolis, Md., police au
thorities for nearly two weeks past,
when the body of Miss Alice Shores,
who disappeared with her younger gis.
ter, Mrs. Dora H. White, on the night
of April 5, and whose body was re
covered on Sunday, came to the sur
face.
Whether the women came to their
ths by drowning by accident or
suicidal intent or by violence is still
being probed by the authorities.
Though the face of Miss Shores
bears several pronounced marks of
discoloration, nothing in the way of
the severe bruises as marked the face
and neck of Mrs. White was discov-
ered when the body was taken from
the water.
Fasts For 26 Days.
While loading lumber a month ago
William T. Marvel, of Seaford, Del,
stuck a small splinter into his thumb.
The accident happened on a Friday,
and Sunday afternoon the pain was
so excruciating that a doctor was sum-
moned, and upon his arrival lockjaw
had developed.
Everything was done to relieve him,
but without avail. Fasting was ordered
and Marvel was kept alive for twenty:
morphine.
Marvel has now recovered and he
shows no ill effects from his fast and
attack of tetanus.
Dynamite Cap Kills Woman.
A dynamite cap which Mrs. Rose
Schultz, a widow, residing at Guth's
Station, near Allentown, Pa. held in
her hand while she picked at it with
a hairpin, exploded.
Both her hands were torn off and
her face, chest and abdomen fright-
fully lacerated, exposing the intes-
tines. She was sent to the hospital at
Allentown, where she died.
Mrs. Schultz is the mother of three
children, one a nursing babe. The cap
was found by her little boy, from
whom she took it while he was play-
fog with it.

| Body Is Exhumed; Murder Exposed.
Post mortem examination of the body
of William F. Warrington, who died in
the city jail at Easton, Md., after it
‘had been exhumed in Odd Fellows’
| cemetery, proved that he had died of
a fractured skull, received, it is al-
| leged, when he was thrown into a cell
| after arrest, and while he pleaded
his innocence of the charge against
{ him. Charges of murder, it is expect-
' ed, will follow,
The body was exhumed at the re:
quest of the boy's mother, Mrs. John
! Newell, who declared that her son
| was murdered by the police. The ex
| amination was attended by a large
crowd, including women and children,
but several of the latter were forced
' to retreat when the body was brought
‘from the grave, and surgeons began
cutting it.
Warrington's death occurred on Dec.
117, and shortly after the inquest was
' held and everyone exonerated. Burial
| followed. Mrs. Newell refused to be-
| HHeve that her son had died of natural
| causes and received a report from the
| undertaker that the neck of her son
| was discolored, and that it appeared
ito him as if the neck were broken
and caused death.
Mrs. Newell made an investigation
| and placed her evidence of police bru-
| tality before Magistrate Stengle. He
communicated with Governor Croth-
i ers, who ordered the body to be ex-
. humed.
Rich Girl Weds Chauffeur.
Miss Margaretta D. Hambleton, the
| daughter of Mrs. Frank S. Hambleton,
| and Owen Frank Monahan, twenty-one
| years of age an automobile mechanic,
| were privately married in Baitimore.
The bride is twenty years of age.
‘Her father, the late Frank S. Ham-
'pleton, was a prominent banker of
Baltimore, and the family is of the
highest social positien. Mrs. Hamble
ton, the mother, was out of the city,
' and it is understood that she had no
knowledge of her daughter’s purpose.
The newly wedded pair left on an
automobile trip throngh the south im-
| mediately after the ceremony.
Monahan, who is a college graduate,
accompanied the Hambleton family to
Europe three years ago as an expert
chauffeur and was thus thrown much
in Miss Hambleton's company. i
It is understood that there were
strong objections to the match on the
part of the bride's family. Advantage
was taken of the opportunity offered
by the absence of the mother; a friend
of the groom procured the necessary
license, and soon after the ceremony
was simply and quickly performed at
the rectory of St. Philip's and St
James’ Catholic church.
Find Woman's Body; Murder Suspected

appeared from Annapolis, Md, April
b last, was found floating in Spa creek,
‘near that place.

whether the bruises were received be-

thrown into the water.
The creek has been persistently
searched since the woman's disappear-
ance, but, aside from the finding of
Miss Shore's hat in the water near &
bridge where they were last seem, no
trace of them was found until Sunday.
License to Drink.
Representative F. H. Knight, of
Clarion county, Pa., is drafting a bill
requiring every man or woman who
disires to drink spiritous, malt or
brewed liquors in Pennsylvania to
take out an anmual license at a cost
of $5.
Representative Knight figures that
there are at least a million out of the
state's nine million people who would
want such a license and that there-
fore the revenue would be $5,000,000 a
year.
His bill would prohibit the issuance
of licenses to habitual drunkards and
would make it a misdemeanor to serve
intoxicating drinks to any one who did
not have a license.
