OTHER PREsIDENTs'ToURs
Lodge Says They Were Paid for by
the Railways Traversed.

Washington, June %. = While the
$4,000 appropriation for presidential
travelling expenses was being discussed
in the senate Bacon said he did not
object to the presidents visits to the
various sections of the country, and
referred to the tours of Cleveland, Har-
rison and Mckinley.
Does the senator mean to say that
they paid their own way" asked
Lodge, and when Bacon replied in the
affirmative Lodge replied that 1T is
perfectly well known that they did
not. but that the railroads had paid
their expenses
Bacon then said that he had only
meant to say that the government had
not footed the bills. Both senator's
agreed that under the prospective rail
road rate law the president could not
accept free transportation from the
railroads. The arguments of the OPP
ponents of the measure were principal
~ that there was no necessity for the
president to make any tours.

Senate and House in Brief.

Washington, June 23-The senate
dropped the amendment to the sundry
civil bin appropriating $4,000 for
presidential travelling expenses and
passed a separate bill for that purpose
-42 to 20--a party vote. Nearly the
whole day was used up in debate on
the question. The sundry civil bill was
passed with the clause abolishing can
teens at soldiers homes, and a joint
resolution was adopted expressing sym
pathy with the Jews in Russia. An
executive session was held
The house unanimously passed the
senate resolution of sympathy for Rus
sian Jews and put in the balance of
the session on the pure food bill.
debating it on every possible line, con
stitutonal or otherwise 1t was pend
ing at adjournment.

NO BOOZE FOR VETERANS
None in the Homes-Must Go Out and
Forage When Dry.

Washington, June %. = When the
sundry civil bill consideration had
reached the canteen question in the
senate Nelson moved to strike out the
proviso prohibiting canteens at the
soldiers homes. He said that most Of
the inmates are old men of fixed hab-
its. and many of them addicted more
or less to drink. that the men would
seek the vilest slumS if they could not
get LIQUOR within the home precincts,
with results far more disastrous.
He read several statements. one
from Archbishop Ireland, testifying TO
the improV ed conditions under the reg
ulated sale of beer and wine at the
homes. On motion of Senator Hale the
motion was laid On the table. and a
east iron anti-canteen clause went into
the bill.

RATE BILL REPORT READY
Only Needs Signing and Tillman May
Refnse-Amendments Made.

Washington. June %. - The confer
ence report on the railroad rate bin
was not filed in the house. as it was
expected TO be. The report has been
drawn and signed by the three house
conferrees - Hepburn, Sherman and
Richardson-and also by Elkins, of
the senate conferrees. Tillman objects
to one feature of the settlement, and
Cullom. ii is understood, will sign the
report today Tillman went to Phia-
delphia. but is expected here today. He
viii be given opportunity to sign the
report, but should he decline the re-
port viii he filed in the house with
out his signature.
The portion of the agreement to
which Tilman objects is the compro-
mise proposition which would apply the
McLaurin commodity amendment to
railroads only, instead Of to common
carriers. so far as it prohibits them
from carrying commodities which they
produce BY this arrangement the
amendment making pipe lines common
carriers is not affected.
What is regarded as ali important
amendemm. which has been agreed TO
is the striking out of the word vii
fully" in the provision which forbids
the granting Of or accepting of rebates.
The word knowingly" was left in the
provision. The effect is that person
must simply knowingly offer or re-
ceive a rebate. it not being necessary
to prove that the act was ''wilfuliy'
done.
Should the report be filed in the
house today it viii not be available for
action Until Monday. Should Tillman
persist in his refusal to sign the re
port it will be presented in the senate
by Cullom, according to the procedure
governing such matters.

THE BLACK BALL.
A clever scheme That was spOTIed
In the Drawing.

A clever scheme Thnt Was Spoiled
In the Drawing.
Two young men in Il French village
were called ON to draw for conscrip-
ton. One only was wanted TO complete
the number and of the two who Were
to draw one was the son of a rich farm
er and the other the child of n poor
widow.
The farm er inErItiatcd himself with
the superintendent of the ballot and
promised him 81 present II he could find
means to prevent his son from going
in the army. In orIer to accomplish
this the official put into the urn two
black balls instead of. one white and
one black ball When the young men
came. he said:
There are two balls, one black and
the black one must serve. Tour turn
is first pointing to the widows son.
The latter suspcctiuE that all WIS
not fair approached the urn and drew
one of the halls. which he Immediately
swallowed without looking at it.
Why" said the superintendent,
s.havc You done that:" How are we to
know whether you have drawn IL black
or white mll:'
.-oh. that's very easy to discover"
was the reply. LET the other now
draw II l have the black. he must
necessarily draw the white one"
There was no help for it. and the
farmers son. putting his hand into the
urn, drew the remaining ball, which. To
the satisfaction OF the spectators, was
a black one.
