OVATION FOR CANNON
GREAT DEMONSTRATION MARKS
CLOSING SESSION OF HOUSE
OF REPRESENTATIVES.

washington, April 29.-The closing
the Fifty-eighth congress was made
notable by the demonstration which
followed the offering of a resolution
by Mr.. Williams. the minority leader,
testifying to the courtesy and impair
tial manner in which Speaker Cannon
has presided over the house. Nhe reso-
luton was not of the perfunctory kind,
but was expressive of the kindly feel
ing, which men in the house of all
parties entertained toward him. In a
graceful speech the speaker declared
his appreciation of the resolution.
Many conference reports agreed
to on bills which had been in dispute
between the two houses. The only
points of differences between the two
houses was the bill providing for the
reinstatement to the naval academy of
three cadets who had been dismissed
for hazing, the house voting over
whelmingly against it.
Washington, April 29.-With brief
announcement and a sharp rap of his
we'll worked gavel, President Pro TEN
Frye adjourned the senate sine die at
2 p. m. Thursday, the hour fixed by
resolution of the two houses of con
gress. The occurrence was devoid OF
unusual incident and the final close of
the session was but slightly different
from the end of an ordinary days sit;
ting. Neither rush nor confusion
marked the end.
The only important acts Of legisla'
ton during the day were the presenta-
ton and acceptance of conference re-
ports on the Panama canal government
and emergency river and harbor bills.
Neither report aroused debate.

Fifteen Hundred Bakers Out in Bos-

ton and Vicinity.
Boston, May 2.-The principal diff
Guilty to occur on May day in New
England was the strike of more than
1,500 bakers in this city and nearby
places, including Cambridge, Lynn,
Salem, Brockton, Arlington, Rockland,
Stoughton, Northeastern, Weymouth,
South Weymouth and B"ridgewater.
The strike was caused by the refusal
of the master bakers to sign a new
schedule calling for a sixty-hour week
and SIG weekly for second hands and
$18 for fcremen. The larger hotels
and restaurants are not affected by
the strike.
Among other troubles are those
caused by the demand of 400 carpen-
ters in Springfield and Chicopee for
an increase of so cents a day. There
were minor strikes in the building
trades in other places, but in New Eng
land as a whole the number of men in
voluntary idleness is smaller this year
than usual.

Philadelphia, May 2.-About 5000

result of strikes ordered by local un-

elevator constructors, cement finish

by the refusal Of employers to grant
increases in wages. The differences
in most cases will probably be adjust
