Washington. March 2.-It became evident today that the senate could not finish the business before it in the al- lotted time. Neither the Panama canal treaty nor the Cuban reciprocity treaty could be disposed of and the president issued the following call:
 By the president of the United States of America-Proclamat
 Whereas public interests require that congress should convene in extraordin- ary session; therefore,
 ''I. Theodode Roosevelt. president of the United States of America, do here by claim and declare that an extraor- dinary occasion requires that the senate of the United States convene at the capitol in the city of Washington on the 5th day of March next at noon; of which all persons who shall at that time be entitled to act as members of that body are hereby required to take notice.
 "Given under my hand and seal of the United States at Washington, this second day of March, nineteen hundred and three.

night issued a letter to the two com mittees saying in effect that he desired to have the results of the polls in figures. He further stated that he had recently had issued new schedule of wages which meets the de- mands of their employees west of the Mississippi river but if these demands are insisted upon over the remainder of the systems, he would refuse to grant them, and he was ready to con- front the strike.
 The number of men who will obey the strike orders is variously ostmat- ed. From reliable sources here it is estimated that 2.G00 employees are con cerned, of which number 300 are con- ductors and $50 engineers. As the conductors and engineers have intimat- ed that under no conditions will they join the strike that leaves about 1,3OC
 men to walk out.

Mir. Quay declared his belief that all those on the republican side who favor ed the omnibus statehood bill and who stood resolutely against the advice and influence of others, against the abuse of newspapers of the north and Wash inSton. were faithful to the last.
 Patterson of Colorado, a member of the committee on territories, vehement ly excepted to the statement that the members of the committee were dupes.
 At 1:55 D. m. the senate adjourned until Il o'clock tomorrow morning.
 The Aldrich financial bill will proba bly be laid aside when the senate meets tomorrow, and Senator Lodge will move the passage of the Philip pine tariff bill and will try to get a vote thereon, although it is generally re- garded as impossible to get vote on it this late in the session.

A TUG OF WAR.
Determined Republicans Struggling Against F'ihbustering Democrats.

Washington, March 2.-From II o'clock this morning until late tonight the house struggled laboriously against the democratic flibuster, working steadily to wind up the necessary busi- ness of the session. Despite another special rule adopted early in the day. legislation proceeded at snail's pace. Roll call followed roll call on every proposition. The voices of the reading clerks were worn out by the ceaseIess calling of the roll and several clerks from the committees have been drafted to help them out. Since Thursday last, when the hlibuster was inaugurated. there have been over sixty roll calls against fifty-seven for the entire long session. lasting from December 1, 1901. to July 3. 1902.
 The members also show the effects of the heavy strain. but they are sticking, to their posts. Tonight the great hall presented a disheveled appearance. The floor was strewn with bits of paper. looking as if a snowstOrm had swept through the hall. In the galleries among the spectators were many weary watchers interested in bills doomed to failure, but still hoping on to the end. The proceedings were enlivened several times as the leaders of the respective sides crossed swords Their tempers have not been sweetened by their long vigil, and frequently the sparks flew.
 The conference reports on the Alas kan homestead bill and the immigra- tion bill were adopted; the omnibus public building bill and the general de ficiency appropriation bill were sent to conference.

Any one could have told from the
fearless CLINT Of his blue eyes and
the rakish tilt Of his cap that he
was of the class of messenger boys
known to their fellows as "wise."
He knew few things. After he fin
ished his fifteen cent meal at the
lunch counter he went up to the sir
foot waiter, who made him look like
dwarf by comparison.
"Gimme my check" he demanded
imperiously.
The waiter meekly scrubbed the
amount on a slip and handed it to
the diminutive customer.

In regard 10 the multiplicity OF

it has been observed that these
WORTHLESS, go numerous as to be al
most omnipresent, are the only men
who are allowed to wear their
swords at official receptions.
The major of an English regi-
ment, being about to pay a call Of
ceremony upon the governor Of an
interior province, asked his servant
for his sword, intending to put it on
with his uniform.
The mozo grimly inquired his
rank in the army. and on being told
observed that officers Of that grade
in Venezuela were not allowed to
wear swords through the streets on
visits OF ceremony, but he added
that he, holding the rank OF general
in the army, could wear his own
sword and hand it over to his mas
ter at the governors palacs.-Evan-

PEACE PACT ENDS STRIKE.
Continued from Page One.)
THE PRESS EXCLUDED.

The strikers met In Federation hall.
which has been their headquarters and
the place was crowded when President
Buckley OF the local organization called
the meeting to order. The first act was
to exclude newspapermen from the hall.
and for nearly two hours thereafter tho
public was ignorant of the details OF the
proceedings. Sounds indicating that
speeches were being made and frequent
cheering, gave evidence that the trims
arrangd by tho strike leaders were ac-
ceptabTe.
The first news from the hall was that
the men. by practically a unanimous vote
had accepted the proposion to arbitrate
the matter OF wages, the scale to be
based on wages paid In other cities. Soon
after n second announcement proclaimed
the acceptable of the whole compact.
With tho announcement came the
statement that the union men had been
ordered To report to the various barns
ready to take out cars Immediately.
The strikers ratified the first clause OF
the agreement by a practically unani-
nous vote. The first clause relates TO

HIS VOICE
Is Applying Method Used in
vOiCs Culture to Relieve
Strain on Vocal Chords.

Berlin, Nov. &.--Emperor William has
changed his voice, modulating II 30 as 10
reduce the pressure on the vocal cords.
He now speaks I'm a somewhat lower tone.
his utterances resonating against the cavi-
ties or the mouth or as In musical
phrase. against the mask. He has not yet
tained himself fully and he may take the
services OF a teacher. so that he can APP
ply correctly the meth taught In voice
culture. His throat specialists have ex-
planned 10 him the theory OF voice produc-
ton, which he has practiced with consid-
erable success.
His majesty heretofore has beef using
his larnyx In the ordinary fashion. that
is, expelling the air against the cords
without counter pressure produced by a
rebound from the resonating cavities. II
Ia trained completely for him TO speak
easily. more clearly and longer without
the slightest injurious strain.
The chords will be able to carry quite
as far or even further. The emperor s
advisers have accepted the theory OF DR..
II. Holbrook Curtis OF New York. which
has been made similar TO the German
physicians by Prof. II Krause. the
throat specialist, who attended the late
lieves that several throat diseases can be
obviated and in some instances cured by
using the voice scientifically.
The official announcement that the en-
peror had begun a course OF voice cua-
ture was obtained In the following bulle-
tin issued at noon:
New Palace. Potedo,
Nov. 25 1908.
"The surgical wound on the left vocal
cord has been SCARED over since Nov. Ie.
His majesty. the emperor and king Will
stil require careful use OF his voice for
a considerable time. until the scar be-
comes sufficiently firm.

will recover the entire use of his voice
within a few weeks.
