AT SESSION'S END
(Continued from First Page.)
WASHINGTON. June 28. After announc
Inn that he haa approved me bill. President
Taft yesterday, Jn his message said:
"While I have sinned tlie bill, I venture
to submit a memorandum of explanation
and Comment." ' ,
The. text of (he message then follows:
. '.'The bill ia an Important one and con
tains many excellent features. It provides
for: the canalisation of the Ohio river, to
be- 'prosecuted at a rate which will Insure
its cOmplotlnrl within twelve year; the Im
, proveineot of the Mississippi river between
Cairo and the Gulf of Mexico, to bo com
pleted within twenty yrars; of the Missis
sippf river between the mouth of the Mis
sourl and the mouth of the Ohio river, to
te completed within twelve years; of the
MIsslsslDnl between Minneapolis and the
mouUi of the Missouri river, to be com
plated, within twelve years; of the Hudson
river for the purpose of facilitating the
use of the barge canal in the vicinity of
Troy, 'N, ' T.J of the Savannah river from
August to the eea, with a view to Its
completion within four years; of a thirty-five-foot
channel in the Delegare river

Cat :.,
r . .' rotate Out Defect.
'The chief defect In the bill Is the large
number of projects appropriated for and
the uneconomical method of carrying on
these projects by the appropriation of sums
small in comparison to the amounts re
quired to effect completion.
'The figures convincingly establish the
fact that this bill makes Inadequate pro
vision for too many projects.
"The total 6f the bill, $52,000. 000, Is not
unduly large, hut the policy of small appro
priation with a great many different enter
prises, without provision for their com
pletion, is unwise. It tends to waste, be-
' cause thus constructed the projects are
likely to cost more than If they were let
to contractors who were authorized to com
plete the whole work within a reasonably
short time.
"Moreover, the appropriation of a com
paratively small sum for a doubtful en
terprlse Is thereafter used by Its advocates
to force further provision for It from con
gress on the ground that the Investment
, made Is a conclusive recognition of the
wisdom of the project, and its continuance
becomes a necessity to save the money al
ready spent This has been called a 'piece
meal policy.
. Outlines a Plan.
"It Is proposed to remedy this defect by
an annual rivers and harbors bill, but that
hardly avoids the objections cited, for such
yearly appropriations are likely to be at'
fee ted by the state of the treasury and po
litical exigency.
"The proper policy, it seems to roe. Is
to determine from the many projects pro
posed and recommended what are the
most Important and then to proceed to
completed them with due dispatch; and
then to take up others and do the same
thing with them.
"There has been frequent discussion .of
'late years as to the proper course to be
pursued n the development of our Inland
waterways and I think the general senti
mcnt has been that we shoulll have
comprehensive system agreed on by aome
competent body of experts who should
pass on the relative merits of the varlou
projects and recommend the order In which
they should be begun and completed.
"Under the present system every pro
Ject Is submitted to army engineers who
pass on the question whether it ought to
be adopted, but who have no power to
pass on the relative importance of the
many different projects they approve or
to suggest the most economical and busi
ness like order for their completion.
"Congress should refer 'the old projects
to boards of army engineers for f urthor
consideration and recommendation. This
would enable us to know what of the old
works ought to be abandoned.
Objections to System.
"t have given to the consideration of this
bill the full ten days since Its submission
to me and some time before that. The ob
jections are to the system, for it may be
conceded that the framers of the bill have
made as good a bill as they could under
, the 'piecemeal' policy. I once reached the
conclusion that it was my duty to inter
pose a veto In order if possible, to secure
a change in the method of framing these
bills. Subsequent consideration has altered
my vlow as to my duty.
"It Is n6w three years since a river and
harbor bill was passed.
"The projects under way are In urgent
need . of further appropriation for main
tenance and continuance and there Is great
and justified presure for many of the new
projects provided for by the bill.
"It has been made clear to me that the
failure of the bill thus late In the session
would seriously embarrass the constructing
. engineers. I do not think, therefore the
defects of the bill which I have pointed out
will Justify the postponement of all this
Important work, but I do think that In the
preparation of the proposed future yearly
bills, congress should adopt the reforms
sugested and that a failure to do so would
Justify withholding executive approval,
even though a rivers and harbors bill
failed. "WILLIAM II. TAFT.

Mr. Hitchcock to The Pee correspondent.
With a democrat of the Hitchcock stand-
dard agreeing that the railroad bill Is of
first Importance In legislation now written
on the statute books, there is a corres
ponding endorsement of that view from
Kepresentative M. E. Olmstead of Penn
sylvania, who in the event that the republi
cans control the next house, will be one of
the leading candidates for the speakership.
"The greatest triumph of the administra
tion In the session of consres Just close,!,"
said Mr. Olmstead. "Is found In the nasniice
of the railroad bill. It Is drastic in Its
provisions and puts more power In the
Interstate Commerce commission than was
ever contemplated by the framers of that
commission. The commerce court, the
tariff board and the postal savings bank
enactments are exceedingly Important

OYSTER BAY, N. Y., June 26. (Special
Telegram) Although Colonel Roosevelt has
told newspaper men that he may never
make another political speech, he Is going
to enlist In the ranks of politics In New
York lor control of the Empire common
wealth next fall. He is even credited with
having asked Governor Hughes to recon
sider his acceptance of the appointment as
Justice of the United State supreme court
and to run for governor fur a third term.
Mr. Roosevelt, it is said, believes that
there la no man In the state more likely
to win for the republicans than Governor
Hughes. It Is stated In some quarters that
Mr. Roosevelt had this proposal chiefly In
mind when he extended an invitation to
Mr. Hughes to be his guest at Sagamore
Hill.
Mr Hughes is expected to go to Oyster
Bay next week. It ia clearly understood
that there will be no opposition from Sag

The trip has been a grind never before

contesting divisions out of about forty
which left Cincinnati June 14. Of those
still holding together for the final burst of
speed into Chicago, not half a dozen are
within a mile of the perfect score with
which they began the long grind. In the
Glldden trophy division there are but two
real contestants Premier No. 1 and Chal

with a penalization of but three points
Both of these cars came through perfect

In the Chicago trophy class four cars
are In the running Mollnes No. 100 and No.
102, each with a penalty of 12 points; Lex
Ington No. 103, which has lost 10 points,
and Maxwell No. 107, which has a penalty
of IS.
All of the other cars may be considered
hopelessly out of the running. There Is
possibility, of course. In view of what has
gone before, that a car with less than 100
points penalty will be pretty high class at
the final check. In Chicago, but those men'

RENO. New, June 2J. (Special Telegram.)
This little town of P.eno is fight wild.
The state of enthusiasm that the people
here are showing over the rrosnects of
the big battle far exceeds that at Uoldflcld
at tho time of the Clans-Nelson contest
and the ohltlmers of the game who are
here say that they never saw anything like
the present.
Yesterday I visited the Jeffries camp
at Moana Springs, and. somewhat to my
surprise.-found the big fellow hard at woik.
Promptly at ten bells Jeffries whs st hi
work and from the manner in which he
stepped through his paces it would surely
seem that the high altitude had not done
him much harm. The champ opened up
his day's work by punching the bag, and h
tore at the leather with such force that he

The gloves were then brought out and

There was little or no real boxing Indulged

taking any chances on the bare floor.
It apptars that the canvas covering for
the ring is being brought to camp from
Rowardennan in an, automobile, which ho

The boxing was of the mauling and haul

Armstrong tried to imitate the Johnson

of the colored man. It Is easy to see that
the men of Jeffries' camp are sure that
Johnson's best punch Is his right uppercul
and almost all of their work is being done
to develop a block and a counter for It.
Several times Jeffries hit Armstrong
rather hard and with each hard punch the
negro would wince and pull away with
caution to the big white man to be a
little careful. Three rounds In all were
put In with Armstrong and then Jack
Jeffries was taken on for two rounds.
In the two rounds with his brother, Jef
fries did little in the matter of trying to
hit the 'smaller man, but several times he
deliberately held his chin out and allowed
it to come up slam bang with the swings
of his sparring partner.
Jeffries is evidently testing out his as

In which Jeffries has done his work lends
me to believe that he will be fit for a se
vere struggle when he steps Into the ring
with Johnson. As to whether he can stand
the nervous strain of the battle, that will
only be determined by the fight Itself."
Champion Jin-k Johnson, who arrived here
yesterday and was greeted by an Immense
throng, expressed hln satisfaction with his
training quarters at Rick's resort. He
asked If there were any chances of himself
and Jeffries meeting on the road. When
Informed that there was little chance for
this the colored man plainly showed that
he had no desire to meet Jeffries prior to
their meeting In tho ring.
Judging from what tho colored man had
to say today, the reported make-up be
tween him and Hoorae utile is not a fact.
Johnson and his ex-munager have come
to some sort of an agreement as to
finances, however, and there will be no
further trouble from that source.

After boxing, Jeffries indulged in some
vigorous back-bending over a chair which
Is expected to strengthen muscles ot the
stomach. The exercise Is done by placing
one chair, with the back removed, so that
he Is resting on the small of his back
when lying out flat. The other chair is
placed so that his feet are hooked under
the rungs of it and one of the trainers sits
on It to hold it down. The big fellow bends
back until his head almost touches the
floor and he wriggles about and raises him
self in a sitting position and then backs
down again at least a dozen times. This
Is a violent, rudo mode of exercise and
when he straightened up he was out of
wind and the blood had rushed to his head
to some extent
It was Just a moment, however, before
he had regained his wind and as the work
was over he started after tha camp Jeeter,
Dick Adams, and for a few minutes it
would seem as if Adams' life was worth
about ten cents on a dollar. All of a sud
den Jeffries took a notion that It would
be a good idea to strip the little fellow and
throw him ln the swimming tank. Adams
wrestled and fought but he had
little chance and the only thing that
saved him was the presence of some
women.
Never before have 1 seen Jeffries so
cheerful and so playful as he was this
morning and his trainers are in the highest
spirits over his condition.
Jim Corbett has injured himself some
way and may not be able to work for a
