To say that the action of the House ON
among the administration senators but half
expresses the situation. After the pro-
longed and tedious fight in the lower cham
ber the senator's found themselves in pre-.
cisely The same position as were the
Republican leaders in the House when the
reciprocity movement was begun. If the
bill permitted 10 die in committee the
wishes of the President and their own views
would not be carried into effect. If the
Committee on Relations with Cuba reported
the bill as passed by the House there was
every reason to sup. ..osc that it would pass
the Senate and that would strike blow at
the Sugar Trust which would seriously de-
pletc the Republican campaign fund for
many years. II the bill be reported with
out the House amendment, provided that
could be accomplished, there was serious
itquesion of its passing the Senate and even
it did there seemed little hope that it would
be accepted by the House. On Tuesday
last there was held Republican conference
at which 1t was determined To draft straight
reciprocity measure before amy formal
meeting Of the committee was held and
then rush that through the committee If
possible. What the outcome will be no
man can tell, although the success of the
bill looks most doubtful at this writing.
One Democratic senator predicted yesterday
that the bill would be amended preciselv as
II has been 10 the House by the Democrats
and the beet sugar senator's lie would not
venture prediction as TO the fate of the
bill so amended bu; he said it would proba-
bly, mean that the session would be pro-
longcd far into the summer.

The proposition of the Republican leaders
to trade their support Of the resolution of
Judge Crumpaeker, providing for Con-
grcssional investigation of suffrage in the
Southern States, for the assistance Of the
Democrats in defeating the beet sugar fac

Democrats refused 70 accept the trade and

OUR washington LETTER.
The Reed Rules and Republican
Leaders Get q Bad Fall
in Congress.
The Democrats Voted solidly Against
The Sugar Trust.

From our Regular Correspondent
wAsHlScroS, ID. c, April ,S, Ioo1.-
''Ne,er before. aud ! have been in Con-
gress seventeen years. have seen such utter
decentralization on the Republican side Of
the chamber as that which followed the
overthrow of the Reed rules and the defeat
of the Republican leaders on last Friday"
said a prominent Democrat yesterday.
"rhey have not recovered from Il yet." he
continued, ''and there IS hope that the next
session Will witness an organization less
tyrannical and less ssul,ifsing to the aims
and ambitions of individual members, as
result Incidentally there are too important
lessons To be learned from that overthrow ::
one, the power of the Democratic minority
when they ACT in absolute harmony. for
there Is no doubt that the determination of
the Democrats to vote solidly braccd up the
beet sugar men and so accomplished the
value and purpose of the Crumpacker and
similar resolutions. 1t was understood, all
along. by the Democrats, that the adoption
of the resolution was merely with the pur-
pose of providing basis on which TO trade
with the Democrats aud the proposal of the
Republican leaders confirmed that under
standing. Judge Crumpacker, himself,
was, perhaps, in earnest but, il he was, he
was merely made TOOL of by those he has
helped to make his superiors.

Hints for the HousepIs.

Egg stains may be removed from silver
spoons by rubbing them with finely pow
cred salt.
Fruit and wine stains on table linen
should be removed by pouring water
through them before the linen is put into
the soapsuds.
Kid boots ard shoes may be cleaned
by dipping a little bit Of sponge in white
of egg to which has been added a little
ink and a few drops of oil and rubbing
well.
A carafe that may be taken apart and
cleaned is one of the latest tine-sav-
ing devices. Persons who have the old
sort will find that the inner walls may,
be cleansed with a solution of. soda or
ammonia and plain soap and water.

White lid shoes, like white gloves, can
be kept fresh all summer by a more or
less strenuous use Of gasoline. They
should be cleaned every time they are
worn, no matter how little soiled, because
the hard rubbing necessary to extract
dirt from spots much soiled raises the
nap, injuring the appearance Of the shoe
and causing it to soil more easily. Wet

the gasoline and rub from the toe up
ward with even strokes, rubbing till dry.
Do not have the flannel too wet, and al
ways rub till dry.

Lattice Epeninq ST goes.

One of the charming schemes for even
ing sleeves is the lattice. y dainty con-
ceit for white or a pink dress Is to
have the lattice formed Of either milf
baby ribbon; the ribbon is by far the more
durable and just as pretty if one chooses
the right shade. It is done on muslin
model of elbow-sleeve length that fits
the arm exactly. For a realistic finish
ing touch there's loose bit Of q bunch
OF pink button roses caught on at the
intersections Of the -lattices." To fin
ish, there's a loose trailing effect OF roses
and buds at the elbows.

first supposed to be the exclusive prop
erty OF the masculine gender.
One of the surprising things about pa
jamas is that no matter how tall girl
may be they make her look like little
girl.
The feminine pajama trousers. while
apparently cut exactly like g. mans. are
really soped in over the hips In order
to do away with any unnecessary fullness.
The newest feature in pajamas is pre-
scented in the trim trouser legs. which
are sufficiently loose and long to be COM
Portable, having at the extreme bottom
a fold of white fabric rolled up In a very
piauant nlannish fashion.
This clever idea does away with the
unfinished effect that Is such an unat-
tractive feature. and the jaunty little roll
makes the feet seem all the smaller.
