LONCWINDED LAF0LLETTE
Holds Up the Senate on the Currency
Bill, in Which He Has Active
Democratic Support

Washington, May 30.-It has been n
long time since the senate has been
tied up by fillihuster with such slen-
der support as was in evidence, yester-
cay when Senator Lafollette undertook
to defeat the conference on the Aid
rich Vreeland currency bill by talking
il to death.
The report being brought up short
iy after / O'Clock, Mr.. Lafollette took
the floor. He insisted that quorum
should be maintained at all times and
up TO s o'clock he had demanded twen-
.ty roll calls. He was thus able to OBJ
tain more OF less relaxation and at
the same time keep the supporters Of
the bill i'm their seats. The heat was
excessive and many were very restless
under this restraint 1t soon became
evident that the republicans would
have difficulty in maintaining the
presence of a majority and it was just
as apparent that proceedings would be
suspended whenever the necessary
forty-seven senators We're not present.
Mr.. Lafollette complained of his re-
cent illness and during much of The
DAY learned strongly upon the arm Of
AT 11:15 o'clock Mr. LaFOllette
showed no signs of fatigue. Several
times he became earnest and taxed his
voice more than usual and it was
thought from that fact that he had
relief in sight.
Several republican senators who had
been telegrap pied to return to Wash
ington responded, saying they would
be here today. Republican leaders say
they will have a quorum from their
own membership today and that they
will not be defeated by a one or two
man fillibuster if they have to keep
Congress in session indefinitely. In
this resolution they have the SYM
pathy Of Speaker Cannon, who was a
frequent visitor to the senate wing of
the capitol and who expressed himself
privately vigorously concerning the
proceedings.

MADE HIS LAST Mile
In Fifty-One Seconds, and Found
Death at the Mile Post-Tragical
End of Emanuel Cedrino

Baltimore, May 30.-Emanuel Cedli-
no. the noted automobile driver, was
instantly killed on Pimlico race track
y esterday afternoon. He had been
preparing for races in which he was
to have taken part today, and was
making some very fast miles. One had
just been finished in SO seconds, ana
he had passed the grandstand and
rounded the first corner Of the track
" hen spectators saw his car shoot into
the air and turn an irregular somer-
sault, landing on the track upside
Gown. Those who rushed TO the spot
found Cedrino stretched upon his back
Gead, with horrible cash in the back
CT his head and portions of his brains
scattered about. He was some dis
lance from the car, from which he hal
apparently been thrown as it went ov-
er, and it is supposed that his head
struck the fence.
Cedrino was an Italian and for a
number of years before he made his
pert driver in automobile races, was
chauffeur to Queen Helena of Italy.
His first entry in this country in a
competitive event was in the Eagle
Rock Hill climb in 1904. On August 2,
1905, he made new worlds record
OF SO minutes IA % seconds for fifty
miles at Long Branch. He drove a
car in the Vanderbilt cup race in Oc-
tober the same year, but was forced to
drop out after the second lap, when
his machine broke down. He finished
second in THE Briarcliff trophy race
last month. Cedrino was considered to
be a fearless and skillful driver.
