Considerable of furry has been
caused in the village of Clyde, New
York. says the New York Tribune, be-
cause the members of the women's
club have recently devoted more time
and enthusiasm to cards, than to their
families. Husbands say that their
home life is completely broken up by
the absence of their wives from their
homes at night. 1t is said that dinners
are hurriedly devoured, after which
the women go to the appointed place
and spend the evenings playing bridge,
euchre, whist or other games, while the
lone lorn husbands console themselves
as best they may. The men organized
a club of their own to which they went
nightly, as an offset to this, but the
women managed to keep later hours
than they, and they gave it up. Now
they are discussing the passage of an
ordinance compelling delinquent wives
to be at home every evening at half
after eight o'clock, and the wives are
appropriately indignant. In otner
toWIS east
exclusively for women are given, to be
followed by whist, which continues I'M
til midnight. Why the men are not in
vited to these evening affairs is not
stated, nor is it stated why If women
wish to entertain women only, they do
not choose the afternoon for it. Let us
hope that this very foolish example
will not be followed by the women OF
the west. There is good reason for wo-
men learning to sail yachts, for that
brings pleasurable excitement, owning
them, too, if they have money enough,
as several wealthy, fashionable women
in New York do. Coaching, too. is an
other peaceful invasion of masculine
territory. The womens coaching club
of New York has nearly as many men,
bers as has the mems club, and many
of the women, it is said, handle their
teams with the dexterity of experienced
drivers. For women to go unattended
to theatres is now considered perfectly
proper and absolute freedom Of action
is allowed them in every way. Per-
haps this is right: 1t gives to maids
and matrons opportunities for pleas
ure which they could not otherwise

Isthnian Canal Committee Wait-
 ing on Senator Morgan
MAKING AN INVESTIGATION
Alabama Senator Will Learn Exact Status of Negotiations With Co., Iombla, Nicaragua and Costa
 Rica Before Reporting.

Washington, March 10.-Senator Nor gan today placed at the disposal of the Isthmian canal committee, but did not formally present. the report of the sub committee, of which he Is chairman, on the question of the ability of the new Panama Company to give clear title in case the United States should pur- chase the franchises and property of that company. The report of the sub-com- mittee will not be made formally untll the minority of the subcommittee hold ing views contrary to the majority, shall be prepared to present its report.
 Senator Kittredge will prepare the mi- nority report
 The report of the majority of the sub committee Is adverse to the acceptance of the title of the Panama Company. The contention Is made that before the company can make an acceptable tltle 1t will be necessary to secure legislation from France repeating the French stat ute requiring the purchase in France or all machinery and material to be used in the construction of the canal, and also the French laws establishing a lot tery for the benefit of the canal
 The position also is taken that IS Co., lombia put all her concessions to the Panama company in the form of statutes it will be necessary for that government 10 repeal those statutes. The report also discusses the fact that the Panama rail- road company Is chartered by legislative act on the part of the state of New York and 1t Is held that this circumstances might prove embarrassing in case the United States should destroy the railroad in constructing the canal.
 The subcommittee appointed to investi- gate ne proposed Darien tunnel route reported unanimously against it.
 Senator Morgan was authorized by the committee to ascertain the exact status of negotiations with Colombia, Nicara- qua and Costa Rica, relative to right of way, etc. Members of the com mittee ex- press the opinion that 1t will present It's report to the Senate soon if the informa- tion secured by Senator Morgan proves satisfactory.

.LOOPHOLE FOR
 REPUBLICANS

washington, March 10.-In view of re- ports that the opposition to the ways and means 20 per cent Cuban reciprocity plan was a movement against Speaker Hender- son and those of the House in authority, Representative William Alden Smith of Michigan, one of the most active mem bers of the opposition, has called on Speaker Henderson and has assured him that the opposition was not directed in any manner against the House leader ship, or the speaker. Mir Smith said that present movement was due solely to an earnest conviction against a reduction of the tariff duties. MT. Smith also called today on Secretary Shaw and presented to the Secretary means by which. in MT. Smiths judgment relief could be given to Cuba by action of the treasury without recourse to reciprocity reduc- ton.
 Mir. Smith pointed out that under the recent Brussels agreement the cartel system would continue another year. He proposed, therefore, that under section 5 be imposed by theStreasury against sugar under the cartel system. the same as this countervailing duty is now imposed against bounty sugar. It was urged in support of this plan that it would give greater relief to Cuban sugar than any action Congress could take. Secretary Shaw took the suggestion under consider ation.
 Both elements in the Cuban reciprocity controversy were active about the House of representatives today perfecting their canvasses and holding consultations.

 MT. Vest concluded by saying that he hoped the time will come when the glory and power of the United States will be greater than that of any other people on earth. But 1t will not come," he said, from unequal and unjust discrimi- nation in favor of one interest against all others"
 Tillman Speaks.
 MT. Tillman speaking on the subject of the ship subsidy bill, declared that foreigners will not surrender the trade they enjoy without a struggle, and if necessary will resort to the cutting of rates in order to hold it. He said the bill would foster monopolies. and incidentally referred to the proposed incorporation of the United States Shipbuilding Company, which would absorb the large shipyards of the country. Speaking of the use of vessels in case of emergency by the gov ernment, MT. Tillman said he would cite as commentary on patriotism and love of country the fact that the four scout ships, St. Paul, Paris, New York and St. Louis, used during the Spanish war, cost the government $2,864835, and these, he said, had been subsidized under a pretense that they would serve in time of emergency.
 At 435 D. m. the Senate went into executive session and at 4:40 D. m. ad- journed.

RURAL DELIVERY BILL
 IS COMPLETELY CHANGED.

Washington, March i0.-The bill to clas- sify the rural free delivery service and rlace the carriers under the contract sys- tenn was passed today, but in a form that completely changed the purpose for which 1t was framed. All the provisions relating to the placing of carriers under the con- tract system were stricken out and the salary system not only was continued
 but the maximum salary or carriers was increased from $500 to $500 per annum. A motion offered by MT. Williams, Demo- crat Illinois, to recommit the bill, with instructions to report back an amend ment providing for the dismissal from the | service of carriers who should use their influence in favor of any particular party,
 or for any particular candidate, was vot- cd down. 96 to 141.
 As passed the bill classifies the rural free delivery service and fixes tho com pepsatlon of employees as follows: Special agents in charge or divisions
 not exceeding s24O0 per annum; special agents, four classes, graded from $500 to $500; route inspectors. four classes,
 from 800 to sl2oo; clerks, four classes, from 800 to $l2oO
 The compensation of carrfers is not 10
 exceed $500 Tomorrow the postoffice ap- propriation bill will be considered During the five minute rule MT. Brom- we'll Ohio, offered an amendment to take from the carriers the protection of the civil service law under which they were placed by executive O, der.
 MT. Fleming, Georgia, praised the Pres ident for his courageous position on the subject of the civil service law and inti- mated that the purpose of MT. Brom- wells amendment was to have the bill vetoed.
 MT. Cromwell replied that he did not care what happened to the bill when it got to the White House. He was liberallv applauded when he declared that Con-
 gress, as coordinate branch of the government, was not bound to harmonize It's acts with the wishes of the executive.
 When he mentioned the permanent census bill, recently passed, MT. Slayden, Texas, asked him what he thought of that bill In the form in which it became a law. T Know what members are saying un- der their breath" replied MT. Cromwell.
 T am afraid some of the comment would not be printed in the Congressional Re- cord" Naughter).
 MT. BromwelPs amendment was lost.
 MT. J. R. Williams, Illinois, offered an amendment providing that any carrier who shall use his influence in favor of any political party or candidate for of flee, upon proof of such offense shall be dismissed. It was lost, 81 to 115.
 MT. Cannon, Illinois, was the only re- publican who voted with the Democrats in favor of this provision.
 The committee then rose. MT. J. R. Williams moved to recommit the bill with instructions to report it back with an ad- ditional section covering the amendment he had offered in committee of the whole and which had been defeated. A record vote was taken upon his motion to recom- init.
 It was lost, 96 to Al. The bill was then passed without division, and at 5:35 p. m. the House adjourned.
