SEARCH IS UNAVAILING
Bodies of Drowned Man and Woman
Not Yet Found

The search for the bodies OF Mrs. E. R
saaIbach and Robert Purcell. who were
drowned In the Potomac In the vicinity of
the Chain bridge, Sunday last was con-
tinued today, but up to a late hour this
afternoon neither OF the bodies had been
received. and the outlook is that they will
not be found until they come to the sur
face.
The harbor police boat Vigilant, under
the command of Sergt. Dean. went to the
vicinity of Dixie Landing early this morn
ing and the men worked In small boats,
dragging the bottom. until noon. The boat
was then returned to her dock to give the
men an opportunity to procure dinner. At
2 o'clock they resumed dragging.
Besides the police boat, number OF vol
unteer workers in several boats have also
been dragging, and though the river in the
vicinity of the drowningS has been gone
over several times. the bodies have not
been found The rough. rocky character of
the bottom makes it extremely difficult to
drag the hooks over the bottom and the
bodies might be lying in crevice In the
rock where the drags could not touch them
There is also considerable probability that
the bodies have been carried down stream
by the swift current, and when they are
found 1t may be in the vicinity OF the
Aqueduct bridge or farther down the
stream.
Inc Will De continued THIS eEeu-
ing, and II the Searchers are not by that
time successful it is believed there Is little
probability of the bodies being found until
they appear on the surface. This should be
within the next forty-eight hours, with the
water warm IT is

covered from the river yesterday. ana was

CAUSED MANY CHEERS
JUSTICE BREWERS REFERENCE
TO TAFT IN WHITE HOUSE.

NEW HAVEN, Conn, June 26-This was
alumni day at Yale when hundreds Of old
graduates. coming from every quarter OF
the country, gathered in alumni hall to
listen to the annual report OF President
Arthur 7. Hadley OF the university. and to
hear words OF greeting from few Of the
many sons of Yale who have won distinc-
ton In business life. President Hadley, in
his report, said that the financial condition
Of Yale was much better now than in past
years. Before the alumni gathering there
were many class reunions at different
places In and about the campus, and on
the steps of Osborn Hall and Byers Hall
class after class was gathered for a group
picture Most Of the reunion classes held
their dinners last night at shore resorts.
Overnight arrivals of members Of classes
of 1908. 1900 and 1896. both academic and
scientific. were many In number. and head
quarters of each were lively places. The
garb of these men while attractive lacked
the picturesqueness of some OF the styles
In vogue at last years reunion, but at the
same time they drew much attention.
The alumni meeting was presided over by
J. Benjamin Dimmick. 81, of Scranton, Pa.
who made the welcoming speech.
Justice David ]. Brewer, '56, who was
one of the speakers. referred to Secretary
Taft as a man who had safely guided the
country through the intricacies Of the
Philippine situation. and was at present
carrying on successfully the great canal
problem. and predicted "that he w0QHd
carry to the presidency the same strength
of character he has shown In dealing with
the other problems.
"And when he Is In the White House."
said Justice Brewer. amid great applause,
1T hope and / know he will put into his
administration those same high principles
taught by Yale which he is already show
ing in his public life"

WILL NOT CANCEL VISIT.
England's Channel Fleet Going to
Russian Waters.

LONDON, June 26.-Foreign Secretary
Grey, replying to a question OF Charles P.
Trevelyan, liberal, and to other interpella-
lions In the house of commons today sug-
costing the cancellation of the proposed
visit of the British channel feet to Russia
on account Of the anti-Semite outbreaks In
that country. announced that hs had moth
ing to add to what he had previously
stated on the same subject
1T seems to me- said the foreign secre-
tary, that 1t Is quite out OF the question
that the visit of the fleet, which was ar
ranged for some time ago. should be re-
garded as having any reference whatever
to the internal affairs Of Russia, or as
having any influence on them. Such visits
during the summer cruise OF the fleet have
always been regarded as simple acts of
courtesy"
The secretary also answered in the Mega
tive a suggestion OF Sir William Evans
Gordon, conservative, that Great Britain
break of diplomatic relations with Russia
on account Of the massacres Of Jews, as
had been done in the case Of Servia at the
time Of the assassination Of the King Alex
ander and Queen Draga and suggested that
any further questions on the subject be
postponed until the foreign Office appropria-
ton comes up for discussion In the house
In July.

Yesterday

Under rule limiting debate on all but
two sections the so-called immigration bill
was discussed for three hours In the House
yesterday and passed without a yea and
nay vote being permitted on any of the
paragraphs. This bill attracted much at
tention, the representatives having large
foreign colonies in their districts lining up
generally against the head tax of five dol
lars. which was defeated, and against the
educational test. After very Interesting
contest a substitute for the educational test
providing that the whole matter be sub
mitted to commission. was adopted by
close vote. The most important features of
tho bill were Thus eliminated and the bill
was passed without division.
Mr.. Michaiek uil) made his maiden
speech during the consideration OF the bill
and was accorded an ovation.
1.-THE opposition to the immigrant" he
said. has its foundation In racial conceit
and prejudice
He said the proposition that the immi-
grant is contributing agent to the crime
and poverty in our midst in-an extraordi-
nary degree 10 hardly borne out by the
fact that poverty and crime are the result
of physical and mental condition OF the
individual.
He declared there Is not a scintiIla Of
evidence. scientific or otherwise. to support
the proposition that the fusion OF the blood
of one branch Of the Caucasian race with
that of another results In race deteriora-
ton. That the contrary Is truesis evidenced
In the very geniussof the American people"
Mr.. Gardner Cdass), the sponsor Of the
bill, asked IL 1000 local labor unions asking
for an educational test carried the sugges-

soon as the members have all returned to
Washington to determine whether fresh

the project or whether 1t will be proper
to withdraw the invitations the President
has already extended to foreign govern
ments by direction Of Congress last year
to participate In the jamestown EXPOSE
ton with their military and naval forces.
The State Department has already had sew

which have accepted the invitations as to
the character and extent of the represen-
tation expected Of them, which 1t Is unable
to answer because Of the uncertain attf-
tude of Congress.
