congress MUST
COMPLETE WORK
House Leaders Determined Not
to Allow the Slaughter of
Certain Bills.

Washington, June 26-Congress viii stay
in session until its work is finished. This
is the dictUm of Speaker Cannon and his
Heutenants, and is being emphasized at
this time to counteract any impression
that the pure food bill at least might go
over until the next session.
There is also trouble on the meat inspec-
ton bill and the ''tie-up" on the railroad
rate bill indicates delay. The immigra-
ton bill is also in conference, as are sew
eraI of the appropriation bills.
All of thees things must be worked out
without any date Of adjournment being
set, according to the decision Of the house
leaders. When the work is done an ad-
journment resolution viii be forthcoming
in short order.
While the situation today spells delay
until next week, the work on the floor is
progressing Members say there is no
need Of pTOlOnging the session beyond
Friday if the conferees make up their
minds that the work must be done or that
agreements which will meet all demands
can be arranged on all matters before
that time and that if the idea of prolong-
ing the session for the purpose Of killing
certain bills is abandoned this week will
see the end.

PLAN PARTIALLY FAILED
Idaho Wool Growers Cannot DISPOSE
of Their Clip in One
Batch.
Special TO The HeraId.)

Boise. Ida, June 26.-The effort by the
Idaho Wool Growers association to make
arrangements for cOn5igning the wool clip
seems to have been q partial failure.
Fred W. GOoding, president of the assO-
citation, went to Boston to make the neces-
sary arrangements He has returned
without having fully accomplished his
purpose. He has not been to Boise since
getting back. but If appears he met with
concerted refusal on the part Of the Bos-
ton banks to advance the necessary mon
ey for movement Of the entire clip.
Some money was secured and q portion
of the wool can be shipped, but, as a mat
ter of fact, it is understood there can
be no such general cOnsignings as had
been planned. It IS the understanding
that the banks acted on suggestion from
the wool dealers, these considering it a
serious menace to their business for such
a step to be taken by producers.

be a greater city in all ways" he said
