patents for their clients, many of them
for rejected inventions. C. c.. Snow

WASHINGTON, July 16.-Representa-

about the State and War Departments
while the Chinese discussion was at its
height to-day. Asked if there would be
an extra session of Congress, he said:
THAT IS for the President TO say, but 1

The present law limits the number of
troops TO 100000, and without action by
Congress there could be no increase Of
the army beyond that force. But in case
of emergency there are provisions of the
statute which give the President means of
raising funds 10 meet the necessities of
