Although Jack Johnson wnuts to keep up his weight, nntl yesterday's hnnl work in tho boilinp sun put n crimp in his mnbitiou, ho announced today that ho will carry frlosj' ramn nvprvonn Js nn rden tn. la Farmer Burns, Jim Corbott;out his usunl ProRrnm, doing about and Roger Cornell nro wearing an-'eight miles on tho rond and then xloua looks, and whenever they get 'tearing into his sparring partners togetnor iney Co over mo situauon for e;Kht romuls of fast work wun an tno gravity 01 a ouncn or Says Transportation Is Bound to Come to That Country Declines Arrived At. POLITICIANS BUSY DOPING OUT JUST WHAT CONGRESS DID DO WASHINGTON, V. C, Juno 27. - Now Hint "Undo Sam's law fac tory" has closed down until 110001111101, after ft strenuous session, poll ticlano today aro casting up tho balance to ascertain Just what was and what was not done. Tho president's annual uioosiiho covered tho 011 tlro legislative field. Tho prosrMii which ho especially urged contained about olghteon lniMiniiron. of which six worn mlniitn I. Tim vm.iImi-u ..inim .....lit ?.... to DISCUSS Any Of Conclusions He 'everything done that 'was mentioned In his mosanKO. Tho h irgonts and democrats boo" tho results far dlfforontly. Tho n llroad bill, tho main lssuo of tho session, as adopted, bo practically no sombli nco to tho original Tatt-Wlckersham bill, tho insurgonta chitting that tho ureal dent had nothing left ot It. but tho roinmcrco court. Tho groat bulk of tho work was dono In tho last month and a very Important part during tho last week. In tho early halt of tho session tho house wan not Industrious andtho sonntu did practlcnlly nothing at all. At tho finish there was a crush of work and double activity. senators trying to slip a railroad bill over. Tho big negro evidently felt tho I heat yesterday, and though ho 1 pounded out eight miles over the .Toff In- Shnpe. blistering roads and sparred beforo That Jeffries Is in shopo, his the crowd that gathered nt his quar trainers all emphatically declare, but tors, it was apparent that he was a lils plan of battlo and how to take ' trifle listless and that ho was not ns caro ot him give tho trainers plenty ( full 0f "popper" as hchnd been at to think about. Although Jeffries Seal Rock traiuiug quarters. Lns not declared himself, tho general Jack Slovenly. icciing is tnat ne is going to iignti his own fight and that he will listen I to no advice whilo in tho ring unless it is to heed tho word ot Corbett "when danger threatens. Each night tho training squad Cots together end discusses the mat ter of picking seconds, and up to to irJay they were no nearer a conclu sion than they, were at Rowarden--aan. Burns, Choynskl, Corbett and 1 Cornell are sure to bo in tho corner but what their functions will bo is unsettled except In tho case of Cor selll. Taking care of any cuts that Johnson's blows may inflict and looking after t!i giant's logs will be ils assignment, and even now he Is preparing for every contingency that may arise. Jeff Crc Free. Jeffries seems to bo entirely care free. But ns tho day for the begin ning of the drying-out process ap proaches he Is bothering himself a bit. His moods are becoming changeable; he fears that If what he has planned Is not quickly consum mated and ho Is crossed, ho lets out zn angry growl. Sunday was an other of hia days of rest. Ho was up with tho larks, and before ho had eaten breakfast, he was telephoning for a favorito fishing companion, for whom he sent his automobile. All morning they fished, hooking a good catch, and returned to camp about noon. Instead of working In the after noon for the edification of the crowd that took r. chance with the heat and rode out to Moana, be jumped Into his machine, raced away and did not show up again during the afternoon. The crowds are not discouraged, however, and even before Jeffries bad finished his breakfns1. today the pilgrimage to Moana had begun in the hope of seeing him go through some hot training stunts. In fact, tho close critic yesterday would have declared Jack's work just n triflo slovenly. His move ments were lazy and the earnestness that was expected to mark his work did not put in its appearance. With tho fight just seven days away, Jack says ho will go through tho hardest program of the training season. Ho will not end his hard work until the very last moment, his ! trainers declare, and ho will throw ns much vim into it as possible. Having made the shift to Reno only four days ago, he wants to use ev ery minute of Ihd time, believing that it is essential for him to do as much hard work as ho can before he steps into the arena July 4. Praiso Ills Form. His trainers arc loud in their praise of the form the big black shows, and declare that, taking into consideration the fact that tho last hard work tho negro did was in tho PORTLAND, Ore., Juno 27. Pol lowing his return to Portlnnd from an extended M'tomobllc tour of East orn Oregon, J, P. O'Brien, gonornl manager ot the Ilarrlman linos in tho northwest, now readily admitted today that ho had taken tho trip for tho purpose ot forming his own Ideas as to tho best route for an extension of tho Dos Chutes railroad south of Redmond. He was acompanied by R. B. Mlllor, traffic manager ot tho Northwestern Hnrrlman lines, on tho Journey. Whllo O'Brien was candid with re gard to his purpose, ho declined ab solutely to discuss tho conclusions ho had reached. Ho mado one significant rowark, howover, discussing tho Interior country of Central Oregon around and east of cBnr. "Transportation Is bound to como to that country," "ho said. "I con fess I don't know when it may bo this year, it may bo next but it Is certainly coming." Important Bills Passed. INVESTIGATE BURNING OF AN EXCURSION STEAMER LA CROSSE. WR, Juno 27. Federal Steamship Inspector Kunpp today is investigating the burning of tho excursion steamer "J. S" 21 miles below La Crosse, on tho Mis sissippi river, Saturday night, when Mrs. Emma Crandnll was drowned and 50 others injured. Jack Plein, Norval Fox and a third man are still missing.

With I onlookers ui'Lblo to gtvo any assist- ! nnin Tlniinrf O Alinl 9i hiirnn.l tn death in tho wreck of an nutomoblto hero today, and his brother, Fred Abol, nnd n friend, Harry Jowson, were seriously injured. Tho nutotrobilo overturned and pinned nobort Abel beneath It. Tho wreck was soon enveloped In fiamos and passersby who omivoreed to rcscuo Abol wero driven away by tho heat. 1 INDISCRIMINATE Medford small boys must content themselves with shooting firecraek " ere on tho Fourth only. No shooting will bo allowed until then, and patri otic Young America .must curb his patriotism and practice patience. There is a city ordinance forbid ding tho uso of firecrackers until tho Fourth, and Mayor Canon an nounces that the ordinance will be rigidly enforced. Any one shooting crackers beforo this dute will be lia ble to arrest. Ueforo another year it is probable that Medford will have joined tho list of cities declaring for a safe and sano Fourth and enact laws entirely forbidding tho uso of explosives of any kind within tho city limits. yesterday's work was dono under a boiling dcseit sun, ho showed that ho is fit and ready and that a few days' work to accustom him to the change will put Johnson in shape for tho fight of his life. Jack Peevish. Johnson himself is feeling a bit peevish. The hot weather and the nearness of the conflict are combin ing to make tho edges of his nerves a trifle raw. Whether this is re sponsible for tho flareup with Sig Hart yesterday, which,-by tho way, both principals deny, or whether their quarrel was only a misunder standing that might have occurred anyway, the wise ones aro trying to dope out today. If Johnson has be come irascible enough to quarrel with his trainers it is believed that his mood will be none too good for tho big show on Independence day. The golden smile has not been much in evidence. beached on an island ten minutes af ter the fire broke out, and good work of the crew prevented a great catastrophe. CATCH YOUR HARE FIRST IS ADVICE OF UNCLE JOE JUDGE IN GOOD HUMOR AND OFFENDERS GET OFF John Angles and Jim A. Zelln, both natives of sunny Italy, contributed $5 each to tho city Monday morning for fighting. Tho judge was in a pretty good buraor nnd as the fight consisted principally of conversa tion, which nono of tho bystanders could understand, and a few wild swings that failed to land, tho fine .was mado low. Richard Kolly was drunk nnd couldn't dony it. Fivo dollars was Lis contribution. DIAZ ONCE AGAIN NAMED PRESIDENT MEXICO CITY, Mexico, Juno 27. Tho election of Diaz as president and Corral as vice president of Mex ico yesterday will bo fo-mally ratified by tho chamber of deputta3 on July 10.

Their election would mom a per petratlon of tho Diaz polices. WASHINGTON, D. C, Juno 27. "The motto of those planning to make a hare pie is to first catch the hare," said nclo 0J0 Cannon today in discussing the matter of his candi dacy for the speakership of tho house of representatives at tho next session of congress. "I mny be dead when the next session comes, but if I am living nnd am a member of con gress I shall be in tho hands of tho majority. "There has been some harping about 'czarism' and it has been de clared that chaos reigned during the session just closed. It'll bo up to the majority whether I'm re-elected speaker."
