CLOSING DAY IN SIGHT.
Many Bills Side Tracked by the
 Washington Lawmakers.

Washington, D. C., May 20.-lt is probable now that the final adjourn ment of congress will take place eith- CT on Saturday, the 23rd inst or on Monday the 25th. In the opinion Of the leaders of both branches the act ual work outlined can be finished in time for adjournment on Saturday.
 The determination to adjourn early will leave much important legislation unacted upon. The bills, of course, are not dead, but merely will be car ried over until the next session. Definite action on some of them un- doubtedly will be obtained next win ter: but the fact that they were not disposed of at the present session is likely to cut a more or less important figure in the approaching presidential campaign. Here are some of the measures on which no action is to be taken at this time:
 Amendments to the Sherman anti trust act advocated by the civic fed eratiOn and by the president.
 An anti-injunction bill, advocated by organized labor.
 The measure providing for publicity of campaign contributions.
 \ tariff measure reducing the GUS toms rates on Philippine products, ad- vocated hy the administration.
 \ measure to remove the duty on wood pulp.
 The measure providing for the rein statement. in specified circumstances, of the men of the twenty fifth infan- try. discharged for insubordination.
 More drastic laws for the regulation of liquor selling in the District Of Columbia.
 The measure regulating interstate shipments of liquor, advocated by the anti-saloOn league.
 4 blll making Porto Ricans citizens of the United States.
 The swamp land reclamation hill.
 A measure providing for federal grain inspection.
 The bill to reOrganize the postofice department in accordance with the recommendations of the postal com mission.
 Bills amending in various ways the Hepburn railroad rate law.
 Tn addition to these. thousands of measures introduced at the present session win never be heard from. Many of them have not been reported from committees and will not be Many measures affecting the inter state railroads of the country were presented. but no action on any of them has heen taken Some bearings have been held hy the committees. hut none of the bills has been report ed.

AS this. is an important cam paign year, the leaders of the majority realize they will have to do some ex- plaining on the stump" and they do not like to be put on the defensive. Such a condition might mean defeat at the polls.

Failing to get a single vote in congress race-track gambling has been banished from Washington and the District of Columbia by a unani- nous vote. Twice a year for ten or more years the gambling harpies from all over the United States have invaded the capital city to the de- moralization of business and the ruin of government clerks. Governor Hughess determined war on gam bling in New York doubtless helped the cause in congress and will doubtless do much to suppress race track gambling throughout the Unit ed States.

fund set aside for her in an agree
ment made between the two, then
his associates at the Arlington club
began to look askance at him as he
visited the place.
Later. when Mr.. Stevens made the
announcement that he had never been
married to the woman who. for the
past 16 years has been accepted by
Portland society as his wife, the MEM
bers of the Arlington club looked
straight at him, but without warmth
of greeting or friendliness of de-
meanor.
When Mr.. Stevens, in defence of
what his friends considered propri-
ETY., married Lillian Monk and
brought her back to Portland, where
he established his residence in his
old apartments, then there was re-
volt, more or less open, among the
members of Portlands most exclusive
club.
The suggestion was carried to Mr.
stevens, in more or less pointed man
ncr that It would be well for him to
tender his resignation to the board Of
governors and voluntarily cease to be
a member of the Arlington club. Mr..
Stevens coincided with the view. 1t
appearing more desirable perhaps to
resign voluntarily than to be elected
involuntarily.
And so Mr.. Stevens is not now
member of the Arlington club. He has
also deserted his former apartments
at The Madison, corner Of West Park
and Madison streets, and has taken
his bride to a new location on 2Sd
street. between Glisan and Hoyt,
where they are living the simple life
apart from clubdom and society's ex-
haustve demands.
