The, Senate spent the greater part of
Tuesday in discussing the section of the
railroad rate bill relating to the personnel
of the interstate commerce commission,
finally eliminating the entire section and
restoring the present law, which provides
for five commissioners at a salary of ST.
500 each. On motion of Senator Culber-
son the vote by which the anti-pass sec
ton of the bill was adopted was recon-
sidered, and several substitutes were Of
fered, but no final action had been taken
when the Senate adjourned. The House
voted to transfer from the district COM
missioners to the Supreme Court of the
District of Columbia the power to APP
point the board of education of Washing
ton. The naval appropriation bill was
then taken up. The employment of a con-
sulting architect to prepare plans for the
naval station at Lake Bluff, Ill., was au-
thorized. An amendment of Mr.. Tawney
to limit repairs on a ship to 10 per cent
of the cost was defeated by vote of SO
tc 80. after two hours debate, in which it
was charged that millions of dollars are
now spent by the Navy Department with
out an accounting on repair work which
often amounts to reconstruction of ships.
When the section dealing with the in
crease of the navy was reached the House
adjourned.

The Senate Thursday completed the
consideration of the second section of the
railroad rate bill, and just before adj
journment listened to the reading of sec
tons 3 and 4. The following amend
ments to the hip were agreed upon: Re-
storing the Imprisonment penalty of the
act of 1887: imposing a penalty of fine
and Imprisonment against shippers who
secure rebates from transportation COM
panies; giving government business the
preference over all other traffic in time of
war The naval appropriation bill again
was before the House, and an amendment
adopted providing that shells and projec-
tiles for the navy, after June so, 1906,
shall be purchased in the open market
Amendments designed TO enlarge the navy
yards at Washington and Pensacola were
defeated.
After passing 800 pension bills The
House devoted most of the rest OF Fri
days session to consideration of q point
Of order against new steel floating dock,
provided for in the naval appropriation
bill. The chair finally held the point of
order well taken. The Senate, by a vote
of % to 81, practically party ballot
disposed adversely of Senator Bailey's
non-sdspension amendment applying TO in
ter3tate commerce commission orders. as
covered by the railroad rate bill. Senator
Rayner's amendment, confirming court re-
view to constitutional questions, was also
voted down.
The rate bill occupied the entire time
of the Senate Saturday. Senator Tillman
made a statement detailing his and Seua-
tor Bailey's negotiations with the Presi-
dent on the subject. This was followed
by a speech by Mr.. Bailey. vigorously at
lacking the President. Senator Carter
entered a vigorous defense. and Mr.. Lodge
controverted some of the utterances of
Mr.. Tillman. The discussion of the Ali
son amendment was completed, and the
amendment accepted. The House was not
in session.
The rate bill was under consideration
practically during the entire Senate ses-
sion Monday, the time being largely de-
voted TO the rejection of amendments
either by direct vote or by laying on the
table. When the Senate adjourned at
10 p. m. the eighth section of the meas
ure, regulating the personnel of the in
terstate commerce commission, was under
consideration. Senator Lodge offered a
new section providing for new commits
sion of nine members, but indicated a
willingness to accept a modification sug-
gested by Senator Bailey for the creation
of nine transportation districts with one
member from each OF them. The House
had under consideration bills relating to
the government of the District of Column
bia. 1t completed the bills recognizing
the Washington public school system. The
House adjourned, the absence of quo
rum postponing action Oh the bills under

Rare porcelain from the royal collec-

i:fered for sale in various European cities
FOR several years and the thief proves
to have been the last man suspected,
namely, Steffensen, the custodian at the
castle. He is now under arrest, and
while he confesses to have stolen and
disposed of several pieces, he has not
yet accounted for large number Of
THE famous Flora Danica service. This
consisted ori ginally of 1000 pieces, and
lis extremely valuable. There are 1854
pieces still at the castle. 1t is known
shat 212 have been broken and pre-
Ssented to a former officer, leaving 1S9
missing. Steffensen only admits having
stolen thirty-seven, but later reports In
dictate that he is not making full con-

Berlin and Copenhagen have: been

Eware is valued at $4,000 kroner. There

EJuliane Marie service, which originally
Econtained 200 pieces, and was made to
Rhe order of Frederick ", and it Is as
Esumed, that Steffensen also has made
AWAY with them.
1t is said by the custodian $ asso-
lciates that he lived far beyond his in
come and constantly sought the society
of persons more prosperous than him
self.
The affair has aroused much atten-
zion in Denmark, much more than the
intrinsic value of the porcelain would
warrant, and the Danish press is full
OF details concerning the robbery and
the work of the police detectives. For
several weeks the matter has had the
command of the best space in the daily
papers.

HELPING SKIEN
Mountain Lake Becomes Reservoir for
Water Power,

Mosvand. a. mountain lake at Tin,
.Telemar ken, Norway, has been con-
verted into reservoir to supply the
water power at Skien with water in
dry seasons. The work is regarded as
the most extensive Of it's kind in
Europe The lake which has an area
been raised thirty feet and it: is esti-
mated that it will deliver 400 cubic feet
of water per second for, O. continuous
period of 100 days. This with the nat
nral flow of the river, should keep the
various industries at Skien in operation
all the year round. This will be of
great benefit to the. owners and par
ticularly the employees who have often
been obliged to take long vacations on
account Of the lack of power. - -.
/ The work at Mosvand was attended
with much difficulty. It lies 2.7oO. feet
above the sea and it was necessary
to build a road thru the mountains a
distance of ten miles in the toughest
kind of country. ~ 80. -@.=YS *

by women Of high position and liberal
leanings, has been closed by the police,
despite the fact that the Grand Duchess
Elizabeth, widoW of the Grand Duke
Serge, was at one time its patroness.
It's liberalism proved to consist
chiefly Of liberal losses and winnings at
"vint,'' the Russian national game,
which closely resembles bridge.
Two months ago Nine. Natalya

bers,. committed suicide. The cause Of
the tragedy was kept a secret, The
club continued to flourish.

poisoned herself with & arsenic in the
drawing room Of the club. "A few days
later the report spread that both she
and the former suicide had killed them
selves owing to losses at cards. Z
The result Of the scandal, however,
was an inquiry, which showed that the
progressive members Of the club played
cards day and night, and for stakes
absolutely incommensurable. with their
incomes. The wife Of an officer whose
pay was $1,000 year, and who had no
other income, admitted that she lost.
$3.50 in one night. She had not paid
the money and was expelled from the
club.
A richer woman lost $500 in one
week. Several quarreIs, it was shown,
had taken place owing to allegations Of
cheating, non-payment. of debts and
other abuses resulting from high play.
