SENATE ADJOURNS
TO MONDAY
It Has Gotten Down to the Work
Of Passing Bills and
Speechmaking.
ANARCHISTS ARE SCORED
MoOomas Speaks in Favor ola Bill to De-
port Anarchists Argues That Oon-
gress Has the Constitutional Power
to Pass Such Measure.

Washington, Dec. 5.--The announce
ment that Senator McComas woulu
start the discussion on the suppression
of anarchy and anarchists filled the
senate galleries today. Hale or Maine
secured the adoption of resolution
that when the senate adjourns TO-DAY u
be until next Monday. The heavy IN
fux of petitions, bills, etc., continued
much time being taken.
Penrose, Pennsylvania, favorably re-
ported from the committee on educa-
ton and labor, the bill continuing the
industrial commission until FEBRUARY
Is. in order that it may close up the
work now in hand, and secured imme-
date consideration of the measure.
The bill passed. McComas was then
recognized in support of his bill intro
duced yesterday providing the death
penalty for assaults upon the president
or for melting, advising or procuring
such assaults The senator spoke OF
the dangerous spread of anarchy 1t
was humiliating," he said, "to consider
the impotency of our federal laws TO
punish this fearful crime. Congress
must now legislate against this peril
with courage, firmness, conservatism
and prudence" The constitutional
power that congress had to deal with
the subject was supported by numer-
Gus references to supreme court decls-
ions.
McComas then urged the exclusion
and deportation of anarchists, amend
ment of the immigration and natural
ization laws, negotiation of treaties
with foreign powers permitting the eX-
tradition of those charged with anar-
chistic offenses.
McComas was accorded close atten-
ticn throughout At the conclusion Of
McCCmas's speech, Hoar, MassachN-
sctts. said all countries having lawful
governments should secure an island in
the sea, which should be occupied only
by those who advocated the Staying OF
rulers and those resisting lawful gov
ernlnent. 1t was impossible to control
the beliefs and minds of men, but there
was no reason why men, who tried to
ove. throw all governments, who want
ed 40 government, should not be de-
ported to a place where they could put
their theory to a test. Banlshment
from this country he believed to be
lawful punishment, and could be en-
forced. At $3.50 the senate went into ex-
ecutive session.
