SENATOR PENROSE
MAKES THE PROMISE
Washington, D. C, July 21. Chair
man Penrose of trie senate finance
committee, today promised president
Taft to lay the Canadian reciprocity
bill, -with the approval of both the
senate and the house, on the presi
dent's table by tomorrow afternoon,
more than three hours before the
president plans to leave "Washington
for a -week end stay at Beverly. Sena
tor Penrose said that it might get
through tomorrow morning and then
would be brought immediately to the
white house.
LaFellette Assails Press.
Assailing the press of the United
States fcr its support of the Canadian
reciprocity bill, Senator LaFollette, of
"Wiscousin, made his closing speech
against the bill in the senate today.
He expressed the belief that newspa
pers would suffer loss of influence, for
the support they have given to legis
lation in which he said, "they have a
direct money interest."
Says Press Has Failed.
"The press has failed in its duty to
the public in regard to this legisla
tion," he said.
Sir. LaFollette referred to testimony
given before the finance committee of
the senate," that a newspaper organiza
tion had sent out a communication to
many papers, urging them to favor
ably treat the reciprocity agreement.
He deplored this attitude of the news
ppers. "We have senators on this floor who
are bankers,' said senator LaI.'olletto,
"senators who are woolen manufactur
ers, senators who are interested in
lumber and mines. Xret no newspaper
hereafter assail any senator because
he supports legislation in his own pe
culiar interest."
Hitchcock Newspaper Owner.
Senator LaFollette referred to sen-
ator Hitchcock, of Nebraska, who had
Interrupted him, as "a newspaper own
er," who had a direct interest at stake.
"Is it not just as fair for me to
criticise the senator from "Wisconsin,"
T-ftnrteri TTitphonok "for aflvoeatlncr a. I
rintv in nanor in tb fntprast. of CTBat I
paper mills of Wisconsin, to whlck '
h -arbvVJp rnnntn,' tislvr Hhnt?" !
Sees K Favor Duty.
Senator LaFollette, said that he did
not favor a duty paper; that he wag in
favor of free print paper and would
propose a measure in that interest as a
direct tariff measure. He objected to
the reciprocity bill, he said, because
"the newspapers would get free paper
at the expense of the farmers, whose du
ties on their products would be re
moved. SAYS TRUST EVIL
WILL ADJUST ITSELF
Parsons Adds That He is
Proud of Being Trust
Originator.
New York, N. Y., July 21. "All such
wrongs Tight themselves," was the re
assurance John F. Parsons, former at
torney for the American Sugar Re
fining company gave the sugar trust
investigators today, when they asked
him how to curb big corporations.
"My theory is, and it is supported
by the greatest economic writers," said
L' Mt. Parsons, "that all such wrongs
right themselves.
"If there is too much water in the
stock, that will take care jof itself.
The government cannot in equity inter
fere in private affairs. There should
be no limit to capitalization so long
as it is not injurious or, fraudulent.
"I certainly claim to be the pioneer
in the formation of American trust,"
said Mr. Parsons, In answer to another
question. T am very proud of it."

great that the trustees have asked

WILEY CASE IS NOT

"Washington, D. C July 21. The
"Wiley case probably will not be set-
tied until next week. Secretary of ag-
riculture "Wilson, declared before the
cabinet meting today that it would take
him several days more to go through
the papers in the case.
"This is a highly important matter

Excitement Runs Rife in the
Italian Court and an Ad

PRISONERS INJURED
IN THE BIG- WRANGLE
"Viterbo, Italy, July 21. The most
violent scene of the Cammorist trial to
date, was provoked today by a per
sonal dispute between Capt. Fabroni,
one of the chief instruments in ferret
ing the crimes of the. Camorra and
lawyer Lioy. In the tumult all the
other lawyers fled from the room.
Enrico Alfano, .charged with being
the real head of the Camorra, and Gen
naro Abbatemaggio? the informer, were
thrown out bodily by the carabiners.
Glocanni Bartolozzi fell in a fit and
president Bianchl, helpless to maintain
order, declared the session adjourned.
Fabroni is Calm.
Throughout the hubbub Fabroni
stood pale but impassive. As the
courtroom was being cleared, he said:
"The Cammora. in or out of court,
cannot Intimidate me."
Fabroni, captain of the Neapolitan
carbineers, was assigned by the min
istry of justice to uproot the Camor
ras. During the last few days he has
told on the stand the result of his
detective work, arid operations of hts
associates.
Alessandro Lioy, now attorney for
the defence, formerly edited a news
paper. Fabroni has testified that rev
elations against the Camnorra made
by editor Lioy -were not In iiarminy
with the claims set up by lawyer Lioy
in defence of his clients. "Bitter j-er-.
sonal feeling between the detective
and lawyer resulted.
-Sciae Choice Languac.
When court opened today Captain
I Fabroni was asked by Calivear San-
toro, the cown prosecutor, whelher
tho assertion of Zanelll that marshal
Caplzuttl had tried to influence hJm to
swear falsely against his fclio'v prj
oi rs, was true Fabroni repod:
"Zanelll is the scum of criminality.
Indeed it was Lioy who, through Za-
nelu attempted to buy witnesses for
"e aeiPure.
This reflection on the lawyer raised
the first storm. Lioy screamed like a
mad man. Abbatemaggio joined in the
row in support of the captain. Enrico.
Alfano, the alleged head of the Cam
mora, led in a chorus of investives di
rected against Fabroni and Abbate
maggio. Removed From Courtroom.
Finally the president ordered Abba
temaggio and Alfano removed from the
room. They were not disposed to go
quietly, and were seized by carbineers
and dragged from the place.
For "a little time there was a calm
and the president took advantage of
the opportunity to admonish all to
avoid personalities.
"With much feeling Fabroni said:
"For years I have stood the insults of
this man Lioy without trying him be
fore the courts because I considered
him not a criminal, but a person whose
mental faculties were unbalanced."
Lioy Tetorted in fury, concluding by
calling the witness a Hypocrite.
"A greater hypocrite than yourself
does not exist," replied FabronL The
exchange had again stirred the pris
oners and opposing counsel and the
din that followed fairly shook the
court of the assizes.
Lioy Become Excited.
Lioy jumped about, gesticulating
and hurling epithets at' the crown's
witnesses. Meantime the prisoners in
the great steel cage formed a sort of
clique, hissing and cursing their ac
cuser. At last Giovanni Bartolozzi and
others pressed their heads between
bars of the cage like wild animals
struggling to reach their tormentor.
"Get your heads back in there," or
dered the carbineers with a threaten
ing movement.
"No, cut off our heads. Yes, behead
us," they cried.
"Our women,? screamed Francisco
Desiderlo, "have become defiled be
cause of this pig."
Bartolozzi Falls In Fit.
Then Bartolozzi tumbled over in an
epileptic fit. The doctors entered the
cage to attend him and were followed
by a score of carbineers, each of whom
seized a prisoner and held him until
he was physically exhausted. His ef
forts to restore order being futile,
president Bianchi adjourned the sit
ting. SANTA FS CUTS ITS
BIGvBRIDaE IN HALF

Needles, Cal., July 21. A small army
of men concluded yesterday, the work
of cutting in two the span of the
iSanta Fe railroad's greJat cantilever
Ljrid&e across the Colorado river near
this point.
For years this span has been the
longest cantilever bridge in the world,
but the great weight of the new type
engines now in nse, made the bridge
unsafe, and for eight months engineers
have been constructing a pier in the
center of -the bridge to divide the strain.

Trains Are Marooned to the
West of El Paso Friday
Morning.
HEAVY RAINFALL
IN EARLY MORNING
Trains coming into El Paso from
the west were marooned by heavy rains
Friday morning. The -storm "Which
broke about 3 oclock, -crashed but the
S. P. tracks .and washed "down" " tele
graph lines so that orders could not
be sent to or recelved-from- the trains.
Many passengers walked -intOthe city.
A big washoutrat "White Spur," about,
seven miles west of town tore out a
big piece of Santa Fe track and des
troyed telegraph .communication. No
Santa Fe trains .had either entered or

River Rises Again.
"Another big rise in, the river has
again flooded the "Washington park
district near the wireless station, and
is rising to the danger point in the
Foundry addition.
A necord of the rise in the Foundry
addition shows that from early Friday
morning to 11 oclock, the river at that
point has risen over IS inches. This
puts the water line almost up to the
high water mark of last week. One
adobe house, that has been vacant, has
so far fallen and another rise will
bring down quite a number that are
at present just touched by the water.
Many of the buildings of the Texas
Oil company are standing in water, J
but as the foundations are of cement,
only a prolonged standirig of -waiter
at present level will damage them.
Wireless Under Water.
At "Washington park the water is
standing nearly three feet deep around
the Paulson wireless house, and the
base of the tower nearest the rfver
is under water. The river at this
point has spread out over a large area
and has broken over the dykes put up
by the truck gardeners and complete

An invasion by Capt. Couciere, at the
head of the royalist forces, appears
imminent. All attention is now fixe'd

Galicia.
Influential opinion is convinced that
th-e Spanish government is secretly
protecting the Portuguese plotters "in
Galicia and the press has begun a bit

bad faith.
The provisional government is anx

WOLTERSCLAIMS STATS
FOR WETS BY 75,000. i
Dallas, Texas, July 21.-. F.
"Welters, chairman of the anti
statewide prohibitionist com-
mlttee, declared today that the
reports received from antj
leaders over the state show
that Texas will give the anti
prohibitionists a majority of
nearly 75,000.
Wolters says he gives the anti
prohibitionists the benefit of
the silent voting dry counties
on this calculation, but he be-
lieves this class will vote the
anti ticket.
! '
i y j ?
Wet or dry?
This political, not climatic, question
Is being asked by everyone, ofi every
one In the hotel lobbies, op the streets,
in the offices, banks and public build
ings today. Saturday is the day whet,
the electors of Texas will vote on the
prohibition amendment p the consti
tution of the state. Keener interest is
being taken locally in this election,
than in any previous state election,
and almost as much interest is being
shown as in the results of the presi
dential election. Prohibitionists andf
anti-prohlbitlonists have been reduced
into the vernacular of "wets" and
"drys," and as such the two sides have
lined up for the fight Saturday.
Vote Will Be Heavy.
That the vote will be heavy and the
election much closer than was expected
Is conceded by both sides. No more
predictions are beingmade-by--the-anti-'
prohibitionists that the state- would
carry for tbeir cause by a majority of
from 100,000 to 125.000. Senator Claud
B. Hudspeth, who has been making
speeches against,, thQ iprohibltion
amendment in his district; returned
Friday morning. He says that the ma
jority against prohibition will not be
greater than 2o,000 in the state. This
is a general opinion among the antis
and some even predict a majority as
low as 15,000 against the constitutional
amendment.
The prohibitionists are claiming the
state for their cause. George B. Oli
ver, secretary of the prohibition or
ganization, says that the pros are ex
pecting to poll 1000 or more votes in
El Paso county, which, he says, will
be one-third of the entire vote cast.
Should this prove true, he says, the
prohibitionists will carry the state.
This opinion Is concurred in by tho
other prohibitionists and one man op
posed to the amendment admitted Fri
day that if El Paso county cast one
third of the votes for prohibition it
will carry in the state.
Larger Cities Are Amtl.
It Is conceded by both? sides that tha
larger cities of Texas, including San
Antonio, Houston, Fort Worth, Dallas,
Waco and El Paso will go against pro
hibition. This leaves the rural districts J
for the prohibitionists to show their J
greatest strength. North and east j
Texas is the stronghold of the dry ele-5
ment, both sides admit, and from this
section a vote is expected that will
have a large influence upon the final
results.
Says Personalities Help Wets.
The injection of personalities into
the campaign has turned the tide In
favor of the "wets," senator Hudspeth
says. "They had us licked until 10 days
ago," he said. "But they Insisted upon
attacking every speaker that opposes
the prohibition amendment and in this
way alienated a large number of voters
throughout the state. The anti-prohibition
cause will -win tomorrow, I am
sure from what I have heard and seen
In my speaking trip. But the majority
will be much smaller than many be
lieve. I think 25,000 Is a conservative
estimate of the anti majority."
Much literature is being sent out by
the prohibition organization in El Paso.
