WASHINGTON, Dec. 4.-The assem-
bling today of the members of the
Fifty-ninth congress for their first ses-
sion was marked by no unusual Incl
dents, but 1t attracted to the capital
crowds Of spectators who took lively
interest in the proceedings. The day
was beautiful. The sun shone brightly
and the air was keen. Society was out
in force and filled the reserved gall
leries, while visitors unable to find
seats roamed the corridors to catch
glimpses of public men.
In the senate the proceedings were
brief, but most of the spectators seemed
to find as much to interest them in
observing the senat tors who remained
on the floor after adjournment as they
could have experienced had the ses-
sion continued longer.
The house was in session for more
than three hours, and while the pro-
ceedings followed the program that had
marked the opening of congress for
many years, there was enough of inter-
est to hold an exceptionally large au-
dience during the entire time
One noticeable feature was the abb
sence of flowers which heretofore have
been common in both chambers. On
opening days the display had been so
great that the exhibition alone would
have been sufficient to draw great
crowds and the absence of floral
tributes. due to resolution adopted
| Immediately by the senate and to an
order of the speaker, robbed the occa-
sion of much of it's picturesqueness.
During the session senators and rep
resentatives visited the galleries and
chatted with friends.
To Notify President
Senators Allison and Morgan were
appointed by Vice President Fairbanks
as committee to notify the president

NEW TRANSPORT RECORD.

Thomas broke all transport records for
the run from Nagasah to San Francis
co direct when she arrived at the coast
port June ~ after a voyage of 16 days
and 16 hours. The Thomas took 1415
passengers across the big pond and had
good weather all the way. On the trip
out to the Philippines however, she had
no such good luck Some time after
leaving Honolulu the weather began to
get rough and for five days the ship
was on the edge of a great typhoon.
From Tuesday, April 20, TO the follow
ing Sunday, neither sun moon or stars
were visible and no observations could
be taken. When the sun finally came
out the ship was found TO be about $50
miles off her course and close to the
rocky shores of Luzon. Another day of
darkness would have doomed the vessel
to shipwreck. The Thomas will go into
drydock at San Francisco and also
have new boilers installed so that 1t Is
possible that she will not be able to
take her run In August.

The President requested him to visit
