The mémo- randum stated that with the same weapon with which he had attémpted suicide he had some time ‘ago shot and killed a man named Finly at Osage, Kan,, in some difficuity over the latter's wife.

The Prince says thdt yesterday's an- nouncement from the Hungarlan side to the effect that an agreement had been reached was. unfounded. Count von Gondenhove, Governor, of Hohemia, has been summoned to Vienha. It is regarded-as probable that he wiil be charged with the formation of & new ministry. It appears that after yesterday's coun- cil thé Emperor received Dr. Wekerle in private audience and authorized him to announce to the Hungarian Parliament his Majesty’s consent to the common tariff baing henceforth called the autonomous Hungarian tariff. When Prince von Ho- henlohe-Schillingfuerst learned of thé concédsion he summoned his Ministers and they all decided to resign. BUDAPHST, May 2.—The Emperor- P King has empowered the Hungarian Government to present the common cus- toms tariff before the Hungarian Parlia- ment as an autenomous Hungarian tariff. It is identically the same tariff under a new name, and i§ preésentéed to Parlia- ment In order to satisty Hungary, which maintains that she has the right to an independent customs area. The Austrian Government bitterly opposed the corces- sion, demanding that the tariff should come into force as a general customs tariff for both countries. A Guarapte¢d Cure for Piles.

Senator, o Vote on the Smoot Case May Bring Matter to an Isstie. Dispatch to The Call. WASHINGTON, Mey 3. — Senator Chauncey M. Deépew has sent to Senator Dubols authority to cast his vote in ‘the Seniate elections commitiee in favor of t exclusion of Reed Stoct. the Mormoh gpostle. At next Friday's meeting of the <committeé, when it {8 confidently expected & final vote will be tikén on the Smoot ¢ase, an issué will be raised upon the Depéw vote, and this, it is expected, will involve the question of thé mental condi- tion of the Néw York Senatot. A representative of the anti-Smoot pro- paganda 0 sought to reach Senator De- pew s quoted as having expressed the opifilon that the New Yark Senator is in- capable of further ?tvlog in the Senate. As this man sailed for Europe on Satur- day, it 1§ impoeeible to say on just what grounds he based his opinion, but it coin- aides with the fesling that for some timé has beer stfong among Depew’s col- leagues. About two weeks ago, Jugt before the time set for a votée upon the rate bill, Senator Platt wrote to Senator Depew, urging him to be in his seat to Vote for that measure. Setitaor Platt has made a that-measure. Senator Platt has made a number of efforts to get Depéw to come :‘o Washington, but all have beén fruit- eRe. Senator Platt will not discuss this last correspondince with his colledgue, but he his told fellow-Senators that Depéw's re- ply was far from satigfactory. It was not, he has explained, nedrly as sdtisfac- tory as he had hoped for. Thé assump- tion of those with Whom the senior Sena- tor has talked is that not only was Platt disappointed with his colleague’s failure te be present at the rate vote, but that his advices as to the state of Depew’s condition give him deep concern. Whille Senator Deépew attended the Smoot hearings lapt year, fie has been present at no comniittéé meetings this year. The committee is closely divided, 80 closely that Depew's vote might de- termiihé the fate of Smoot. Protests against the retention of Smoot flooded the Senate today. The petitions came from various Stated.

WASHINGTON, May 28.—The joint res- olution authorizing the purchgse of arfi- | cles for thé Panama Canal from United | States producers, unless the prices are éx- tortiondte "and unreasonablé, n the opinion of the President, was called up in the Senate today by Senator Hale. Sena- tor Rayner spoke in opposition to the resolution on behalf of the Maryland Stéel | Compahy, which wants to furnish two steel dredges on which Secretary Taft Proposes to save mohey by buying im Scotland. Senator Rayner, while oppos- ing this measure, reiterated his befief in the Democratic principle of buying in the chéapest markét dnywhers in the world. “In this article,” sald Bayner, “it is said that five hundred million dollars will be' expended in the constriction of the capal and its equipment. The effect of | this resolution will be that perhaps two | hundred million dollars will be wrung ds | a tribute from the people to increase the profits of our protected industries. This | resolution closes to theé Government of the United States every market in the world except the home market, in connee- | tion with these enormous expenditures. “We do not know how the President | stands in regard to this matter. It has been claimed all along that he was in favor of purchasing the material and equipment for the canal, other things be- | ing equal, in the market where they could | be pufchased the cheapest. It is earn- estly hoped that he has net chafiged his mind in reference to this matter. “The bond between the protected bene- ficiaries and the Treasury of the United States should long since have expired by | limitation. This i& a reenwal in a new | form of this unholy combination. It is in| the interest of the American Protective | Tariff League, which, notwithstanding the respectable membership that composes it, reépresénts ev:ry monopoly upon the American continent that is plundering the homes of the American people.” Senator Morgan discusted laws put in force by the President for the govern- ment of the cafial zome, which he de- | clared to be an abuse of power. ber of Congress would dare to introduee such laws, he said. He mentioned as an | instance the provision permitting the Gov- | i law, he said, was absolutely necessary to good government, and the canal zome | could not be controlled without it. Yet, | he said, the President had exceeded his | authority. He said that two years’ experi- | ence had,developed the fact that the ! canal can never be built under ewisting | laws. The affairs of the zome, he said, | had been placed in the hands of men who | hdve no boundaries of power. 1 Senator Morgan offered an amendment, | making the cdnal zone a military reser- | vation and providing that all of the in-| come of the zone should be set apart for the bénefit of the sene, to be admin- istered for that purpose without having to | be converteg” imto the treasury of the | for. the payment of a duty of 10 per cent ad valorem on all goods imported td the | canal zome from terrftory not controlled | by the United States. The resolution went | over till tomorrow.
