Six colored women are now packing
down the sawdusl with ell phantlne tread

persuasive powers to induce passeIs-by

SPEAKER RANDALL IN FAVOR OF A
BITTER FIGHT WITH THE PRESIDENT.
Speaker Randall tells his friends that
Congress will sit until the 1st of July,
and the Speakers friends say that he en-
courages prolonged session, and holds
that the Army Appropriation bill ought
not to be passed and that the struggle
