He testified at some length, but as
the hearings are conducted behind
closed doors the nature of his evi.
dence is matter of conjecture.
The ground upon which Mrs. Van.
derbilt's suit is brought has not been
made public. In that connection 1t is
said that Mrs. Vanderbilt might have
brought action for divorce in Rhode
Island. where she was living, upon
any one of several grounds. Any ac.
tion for divorce in New York must be
hased on the statutory cause.

ACCEPT ST INCREASE.
Chicago Milk Wagon Drivers Will Not
Strike.

Chicago, April 4.-There will be no
strike of milk wagon drivers. The
differences between the milk dealers
and the drivers were settled when the
dealers, in a final peace conference,
offered fiat 81 week increase on
the basic rate of wages, instead of
their first offer of 81 and 50 on com
mission basis.
The drivers, who had demanded a
fiat SIS week raise, accepted the COM
promise concession. They felt ii was
better to accept the additional ST. a
week than to risk losing everything
through a strike, of doubtful possibili
ties at best

Struggle Is Renewed.

There was slim attendance of
members when the house convened,
due to the strenuous session of the
previous day, which ran far into the
night. Both Messrs. Payne and Will
Jams, the majority and minority lead
ers, however, were on hand prepared
for the further parliamentary struggle
which was soon again under way. 1t
was begun by motion by Mr.. Payne
for the approval of the journal. On
that motion, usually treated as mere
formality, a roll call was forced by
Mr.. Williams. The call served to
bring out the full strength of both par
ties. The partisans on both sides
were evidently determined to conduct
the fight to finish.
Having accomplished their purpose
of obstruction the Democrats joined
the Republicans in voting for the ap.
proval of the journal, the proposition
being carried, yeas 267, nays 3. Be-
cause he was denied by the speaker

EXTENDED BAT TIE ON
Democrats Begin Threatened FIJI
ibuSter in the House.
Object of Minority Is to Endeavor to
Secure by Coercion Legislation De.
manded by Them and in Part Rec
commended by President.

Washington, April 4-Leaders OF
the two parties in the house of repre-
sentatives agree that Thursdays en-.
gagement on the floor was but a skir.
mish preliminary to an extended bat
tie in which the Democratic minority
expects to fight out to a finish its pro
gramme of endeavoring to secure by
coercion certain legislation demanded
by them and in part recommended by
the president and the Republican ma.
jority will abandon its defensive atti
tude and carry the war across the bor
der. For the struggle both forces will
strip for action and all such impedi
ments as private bills and minor leg
islation in general will be cast aside
and trampled under foot.
Five of the big appropriation bills
District of Columbia, naval, naval
flciency--are yet to be disposed OF
and as the fighting order of the minor
ity is to compel action on selected
measures by blockading all action
neither minor bills nor debates of any
length must be allowed to consume
the time remaining. Mr.. Williams,
the leader of the minority, denies that
the affray was in the nature of fill
buster. He declared that the Demo
Gratis were not filibustering, but 'are
intent upon a serious and highly com.
mendable effort to force the Republic,
ans to do one of two things-either
pass certain measures which most OF
them are personally in favor of and
which a Republican president has
urged or suffer themselves to be re
corded openly and individually as op
posed to them" The understanding
from direct sources, is that the Repub
licans are prepared to bear up against
the warfare of the minority for lin
tied time without recourse to "th'
deadly weapon of the majority-tht
rules committee" but that the Demo
Gratis will not be permitted to imperi
legislation by delaying the big appro
priation bills. In other words, re
course will not be had until the sands
of the session run low in the glass t
the expedient of bringing in from til,
committee on rules the without III
tervention" rule, nor will the speake
invoke the "dilatory motion" decision
unless forced to do so.

Williams Resigns as Minority Leader.
John Sharp Williams, minority leader in the
House Of Representatives, has resigned that
position. He makes public this act in a letter
addressed to Congressman Clayton, of Ala
ALBANIA One would infer from the letter that
Mr. Williams really is self-sacrifcing, for he
says he gives way that the newly chosen
leader may have the experience of a short ses-
sion before another Congress is seated, init
mating that there is possibility Of Demo-
crat being made speaker year from Deem
Der next. That being true, the successor on
the floor to Williams naturally enough would
be the logical candidate for Mr.. Cannon
seat
Mr. Williams has been in public life great
many years; in Congress for seven terms In
1911 he takes his seat as a Senator from
Mississippi, to succeed the Hon. fernando De
Soto Money. During his period of activity.
at Washington he always has been on the side
Of vested interests, has allied himself with
Democrats who burden their conversation with
reference to the constitution and then when
it comes to apply it, forget that there ever
such an instrument. Essaying to be
friend Of the cotton planter, whose profits
Of the field have always gone to railroads, he
has constantly been found voting as the lat
ter corporations have directed
An enemy Of Grover Cleveland he has
stumped districts in his behalf; the alleged
foe Of Mr.. Cannon, he is his sincerest friend,
his subtlest apologist The two have gone
hand in hand in a combined effort to defeat
the will Of the people, to destroy the last
vestige Of Democracy
It is we'll for the Democratic party, and it
is blessing for the country, that Mr.. Will
Hams abdicates the office Of minority leader.
Processing to be student of Jefferson, he has
been ruled by the doctrines of Hamilton; bla-
family claiming to be a follower of Jackson,
he has been overwhelmed by such vacillating
tendencies that would have been rebuked by
cold Hickory; quoting often from Tilden,
he has never applied a single rule of Democ-
racy as laid down by the former Sage of
Gramercy Park
In New York he associates with Chilly"
Sheehan in Chicago with Roger Sullivan, in
Pennsylvania with Jim" Guffey, in Washing
ton with "Joe" Cannon, in the West with
Bryan, in the South with Bailey No more
potent factor working for the destruction of
what once was a great, militant political or
ganlzation has lived in these past ten years
than this same John Sharp Williams. Having
made or materially assisted in making the CO.
lossal wreck, he turns away and asks others

NAL suffering from rabies, may be treated>
without cost by the most approved and en-
ligbtened method known to science.
To correct the vast amount Of misinfOrma-
ton that exists in the minds Of the public on
this subject, DR.. H. F. Harris has prepared
a statement which appears below.
He treats in most interesting way the
symptoms Of al animal suffering with the dis
ease Of rabies and shows how it may be de-
tected He also tells how any person who is
bitten may proceed. Here is his prescription:
First Cauterize the wound, using concen-
trated nitric acid or other caustic
Second. Send for the Pasteur treatment,

Third Don't kill the dog unless absolute
ly necessary. If the animal is killed, pack his
head In ice and ship to DR.. Harris.

Taft and Foraker Bury the Ratchet.
Washington, June 19-Secretary Taft and
Senator Foraker viii bury their personal diff
ferences in the interest Of party harmony and
success. They exchanged fairly gushing notes
today. Mutual benefit is the keynote Of the
reconciliation. Mr.. Taft seeks to carry his
own State Of Ohio and Mr. Foraker desires
a reelection to the Senate. 1t is believed the
first steps have now been taken for the
achievement Of both purposes
Politicians in even the primer class realize
that If Mr.. Taft insists on the retirement of
Mr.. Foraker, Ohio will certainly 60 Democrat
ic next November. This was more than en-
phasized when four delegates from that State
voted for Foraker and against Taft. IF an
agreement is made whereby the Taft people
viii support Foraker candidates for the leg
islature this autumn all friction will be re-
moved. Senator Foraker took the first step in
the direction Of "making up" by sending the
following message to Mr. Taft today:
Although l fear it may be unwelcome and
probably misunderstood, it is nevertheless nv
pleasure to avail myself of my privilege to
send you heartiest congratulations and best
wishes for success in November.'
Secretary Taft at once sent this reply: II
assure you that your kindly note of congrat-
ulations gave me- the greatest pleasure and [
thank you for it from the bottom of nv
heart. | have never ceased to remember that
