day morning was the first step toward rec
oncilation between the unfortunate couple
The family had decided that the easiest way
IL which to get rid of the scandal that at
tached to Mrs. Astor's daughter as result

reunion of her and her husband. BY meet

parently took the initiative towards a
reconciliation, but as was pointed out to-
day the meeting was prearranged. Mrs.

vorce. Divorce proceedings would natar-
ally aggravate the existing trouble, and g
reconciliation was regarded as the wiser
policy, even if it were only on the surface.

THE YELLOWSTONE PARK BILL
The Senate bill to establish boundaries
of the Yellowstone National park was
taken up and given considerable discus
sion.
Vest of Missouri said he would submit
to the passage of the bill not because his
judgment approved it, but because he could
not help himself. He did not believe, how
ever, the President and unscrupulous
lobby that always opposed legislation in
the interest Of the PARK would permit the
passage Of the bill through the House. The
lobby wanted railroad charter authoriz-
ing the building OF railroad into the park
and the passage of the bill segregating
portion Of it on the north would defeat its
purpose.
Berry of Arkansas argued the govern
mert ought not to be engaged in running
parks or raising wild animals. A scandal
was already abroad regarding the park
and he, therefore, would not vote to en-
! large but rather to abolish it.
Morgan, of Missouri, criticised the mo-
tives of the Northern Pacific railroad in
| trying TO keep monopoly of railroad traf-
| tc through the park. After discussion
lasting nearly two hours, the bill passed,
yeas, 80; nays, IS, and the Senate pro-
ceeded to executive business, and after the
doors re-opened adjourned.
