mcnt Predictions.

The Times Will Give Money for Adjourn
ment Predictions.
For weeks past the newspapers have pro-
phesied and the general public have antici-
pated the adjournment of Congress, and the
consequent reinsurance in the industrial and
commercial life of the country.
These prophesies and expectations have
not been realized and the lame impotency of
the peoples representatives to pass import
ant legislation daily grove more serious to
the welfare of the nation.
THE TIMES offers a first prize of s15 and q
second prize OF 80 to the person guessing
respectively closest and next closest to the
minute of the hour of the day, when, ac-
cording to the official record. the House OF
Representatives shall adjourn for the present
session.
Fill out the following blank and mail 1t to
The TIMES Prize Editor. You can guess as
many times as you have TIMES. No blanks
will be received at The TINES office except
through the mails.
BE SURE and put two-cent stamp on
your envelope when you mail your guesses
to TIE TIMES. You can send any number
you wish at one time.

No Action on Bering Sea Claims.

Secretary Gresham was at the Capitol
yesterday to urge thar action be taken to
settle the Bering Sea claims before the ad-
journment of Congress. The question was
submitted to the Senate Committee on For

was done. The Paris tribunal decided that
the United States must pay sums aggregating
over s50O,000. After his call at the Senate
Secretary Gresham saw Speaker Crisp. 1t is
