HOUSE WILL SIT DAY
AND NIGHT TO FINISH
THE SESSIONS WORK
Exceedingly Busy Week Planned
Preparatory to Adjournment,
Scheduled for Thursday.
INQUIRY BY WILLIAMS
Minority Leader Wants Inforna-
ton Concerning Trusts-Sen-
ate Calendar Is Heavy.

WASHINGTON, April 2i.-Long day and
night sessions are the programme in the
House this week, as the leaders plan TO
end the session on Thursday. On Monday
Mr. Williams. the minority leader, is to be
given consideration of his resolutions call
ing on the attorney general. first for in
formation of any prosecution by him of the
interested parties in the Northern Securi
ties Company, and second, what has been
the result of any investigation he has made
of the coal trust.
The conference report the postoffice
appropriation bill is TO be considered on
Tuesday. The Alaska delegate bill is be-
fore the House as a continuing order"
to be considered in the absence OF confer
ence reports. which are yet to come on the
Military Academy. the general deficiency
and the sundry civil appropriation bills.
Undoubtedly there will be many requests
for consideration of minor matters by
unanimous consent. and the outlook is de-
clared by the leaders to indicate an ex-
ceedingly busy wind-up.
The time of the Senate during the pres
ent week will be devoted wholly 10 clearing
the calendar preparatory to adjournment,
which most senators still say will be dur
ing the present week. There remains only
one appropriation bill to be passed by the
Senate, that for the Military Academy. A
number of the supply bills are still in con-
ference, however, and it is expected there
will be more or less discussion of confer
ence reports.
The general calendar is very heavy, and
an effort will be made to pass 5 many of
these measures as possible. There are
number of provisions in the Military Acad-
envy bill which will be debated at some
length. This bill probably will be taken up
tomorrow, but ii may give way to other
business, including a speech by Mr.. Cullom
OH the country's foreign affairs, and an
other by Mr.. Heron on the subject of the
tariff and trusts. There will be also some
speeches during the week on the desert
land bill, and it is probable that the con,
ference report on the canal zone govern
ment bill will lead to debate.

SEARCH PROGRESSING FOR
RADIOACTIVE MINERALS
Field in Which Radium Is Found
May Be Extended by Govern
ment Investigation.
A METHOD OF TESTING

WASHINGTON, April 24-The United
States Geological Survey is investigating
the occurrence of radium in this country
and is seeking public cooperation in the
gathering of details regarding localities of
radioactive minerals. Radio-activity has
been observed in many minerals and other
substances, like Stag, tailings from con-
contractors. shines, chemical wastes, water
from mineral springs, deep we'll waters
and petroleum. The government experts
say it is possible that the number of radio
active minerals may be greatly increased.
A survey report says that the simplest
means of detecting them is by the use of a
sensitive Photographic plate. The plate
should not be removed from its inclosing
black paper. On this paper in a dark room
should be laid small metallic object, over
which should be laid specimen. With
the usual development, if the specimen
tested has radioactive powers, a photo
graph of the metal object will be produced
on the plate.
The government will exhibit at the ST
Louis exposition specimens of every known
radioactive substance. radium compounds
and much other material on the subject.

MOTORMAN IS SAVED
FROM .AN ANGRY MOB
St. Louis Street-Car Man Whose
Car Killed Pedestrian Rescued
by Citizens.

ST. LOUIS, April 24.--The coolness of two
men last night saved James Patton, motor
man on a Cherokee car, from angry mob
that numbered at least 1000 persons. The
car had just run over a man supposed to be
Bernard Rohlmann, and within a few min
utes the street was crowded for a block
with people crying, Lynch him. Only a
leader was needed and the mob would have
carried out its threats.
AS they crowded about the car Michael
Maher, a powerfully built young man,
jumped to the platform and seizing the
switch bar, warned the crowd TO stand
back. They did not heed. and Patton and
his protector were slowly crowded back
through the car. AS the back platform
was reached the crowd surged about that
and would have pulled Patton to the street
had not another protector appeared in the
shape of Michael Callahan.
What are you men trying to do?' he
cried, and the words seemed to bluff the
mob, which shrank back. AT this juncture
Patrolmen James Hennessey and John Fer
rick came up on the run from the Fourth
district station, three blocks away, and re-
enforced the motorman'S protectors, dis
persIng the crowd.
The accident occurred at about 800 D. m,
and the police arrived in less than ten min
utes. HAD the police delayed a few minutes
longer witnesses say that a lynching would
surely have taken place.
