Indianapolis, May 13.—A semi-offi- cial report from Washington that for- mer Vice President Fairbanks has been, or shortly will be, offered the post of ambassador to Great Britain, is mccepted here as authentic. By coin- cidence the news reached Mr. Fair- banks on his birthday. The former vice president, when asked about the report, said he had nothing to say. Many of his friends who knew that the day was a birth anniversary sent messages of congratulation to Mr. Fairbanks.

SENATE BILL IS DROPPED New Measure Will Contain Provisions to Protect the Government as Guar- antor and Includes a Gold Reserve in United States Treasury—Deposits to Be Invested in Government Bonds. ‘Washington, May 14.—Leaders of the house and senate have been pledged 'to the support of a postal savings bank bill at this congress, which will embody the fundamentals of sound banking in its provisions. Whether friendly or unfriendly to the legislation personally President Taft has secured the support of Sen- ators Aldrich, Crane and Carter and of Representative Weeks and Speaker Cannon to the proposed legislation, which Mr. Weeks, as chairman of the house committee on postoffices and postroads, is now preparing to intro- duce. The outcome of the conference the president has had with the leaders on the subject this week has brought about the following tentative agree- ment, which, it is now believed, will | eventually be enacted into law: It has been agreed that the senate psstal savings bank bill is not made on sound banking principles, in that it provides no reserve funds, discrim- inates against most of the gilt edge security which the government has to offer as an investment for the deposits and imposes upon the government, which is to act as guarantor of the deposits, the necessity of depositing postal bank funds in state and private banks over which it has no supervision or control, as well as in national banks over which it has no control. The bill which Mr. Weeks is now engaged in perfecting covers three features, as follows: It will provide a gold reserve against postal bank -deposits, to be kept in the United States treasury, of not more than 10 per cent. It will provide that the deposits shall be invested in bonds of the gov- ernment and in new issses at 215 per cent interest. It will permit the issue of Panama canal bonds over which there has been a conflict between the treasury de- partment and congress.

WAITING TO SEE-ROOSEVELT Seth Bullock, in London, Refuses to Discuss Politics. London, May 14—Seth Bullock, United States marshal for South Da- kota, is waiting to give the glad hand to Theodore Roosevelt and to pass judgment on the latter's bag of Afri- can game. He has put a lock on po- litical language in order, as he con- fesses, not to offend Mr. Roosevelt. He said: “I reckoned Mr. Roosevelt, would get here the same time as myself, but T've beat him to it. Let him do the political jabbering. I can't play that string fiddle until I've seen him. I've great personal friendship for Mr. Roosevelt and think he might not like it if T started the tune first. “Yes, Mr. Taft has made a fine president. Maybe there’s plenty of peo- ple would like to have Mr. Roosevelt back. I believe he was pretty well liked when on the job.” REVOLT IN EGYPT FEARED Leave of Absence of British Army Of- ficers Stopped. Cairo, May 14.—In the belief that the death of King Edward and the resultant political confusien may be seized upon as an opportune time for starting an insurrection against Eng- lish authority the govermment has stopped the leave of all British army officers in Egypt. The troops are being practiced in fleld maneuvers so as to be ready to deal with disorders on short notice. Uneasiness 1g felt concerning the loyalty of the native soldiers..

There are some increases, for which no apologies are made; they were necessary for the revenue; tne commodities on which the rates were reduced represent ten times the value of the luxuries on which the rates were increased. It is a true downward revision, but the law has.been*misrepresented by politicians with campaign capital to make and by tradesmen grasping for pelf. The high cost of living is due to overproduction of gold and is not com- mon to the United States, but is con- sistently paralleled in Europe. This, briefly, was the defense of the tariff law made by Mr. Payne during the debate in the house of representa- tives. A touch of rheumatism, or a twinge of neuralgia, ‘whatever- the trouble is, Chamberlain’s Liniment drives away the pain at once and cures the complaint quickly. First application gives relief.

Walsh de- livered the first closing address in be- half of Dr. B. C. Hyde, on trial for the alleged poisoning of Colonel Thomas H. Swope. Tears unchecked rolled down the cheeks of Jurors W. C. Crone and William Beebe. Much of the first hour of Mr. Walsh’s speech was devoted to de- | nouncing the state for intimating that | Mrs. Hyde lied on the witness stand | in order to save her husband’s life. | This statement, he said, practically painted the defendant’s wife as an ac- complice of her husband in crimes the state avers he committed. The atiof- ney spoke several times of the awful- ness of taking the doctor from his | wife’s side to “choke him to death | like a dog on the gallows.” Members of the Swope family and other persons who testified for the state, charged the speaker, had twist- ed their testimony to suit the needs of the prosecution. The whole case in fact, he said, was based upon sus- picions, Tumors and conjectures. Minneapolis Politician Ends Life. Minneapolis, May 14—Ex-Judge J. R.
