the association upon various educa-
tional matters which were prepared by
the committee on resolutions were
adopted by the association today.

session to have the association in
dorse simplified spelling. A resolution
to this effect was lost by close vote.
Efforts to revive the resolution were
blocked by a resolution to adjourn.

Politics had its inning today. There
was the annual talk Of alleged in

officers for the ultimate benefit of con-
Germs said to be in the nature of

Many of the educators of high re-
nown in attendance upon the conven-
ton positively deny the identity Of a
conflict over the National Educational
association. Among these men is
Nicholas Murray Butler, president of
Columbia university. He asserts that
never has the office of president been
used to advance the interests of any
concern that manufacture supplies for
schools. However, the politicians" Of
the association are reported to be deep
ly cogitating the reports spread abroad
within the last twenty-four hours that
a lobby" was industriously at work
to make plain sailing for the general
interests.
Addresses were delivered by Ben
Blewett of St. Louis and ]. A. H. Keith
of Oshkosh, Wis.

to the home, school, and correctional
institutions was the subject of several

BY Associated Press.

By Associated Press
COOPERSTOWN, N. Y, July l.
Bishop Henry Goldman Potter of the
Protestant Episcopal diocese of New
York is tonight near deaths door.
The bulletins issued by his physicians
during the day related in brief the aged
clergyman's steadily decreasing vital
ity. In no case did the doctors hold
out hope of a favorable termination of
the bishops illness, and in their last
statement of the night they indicated
that the end was slowly approaching:
But the means taken to keep up the
patients strength have been in a
measure efficacious, and 1t was be-
lieved late tonight that the bishop had
still sufficient vitality to carry him
through the night
One factor in helping the sick man
to pass a fairly comfortable day was
the cooler weather which prevailed.
The bishop has remained conscious
throughout the day and his communi-
cations with those about him in the
sick room have been invariably cheer
full. He remains free from pain.
To his cheerfulness and courage the
physicians attibute much of the re-
his counsel Immediately gave notice of
the disease which he is displaying,

RECEIVED WARNING - Night
Marshal Kelley last night warned
number of young men about the age
of seventeen or eighteen that they
must not loaf on the streets until an
early hour in the morning the same as
has been their practice for long
time. These young fellows are past
the age when they come under the
terms of the curfew law, and here
after when found lettering in public
places after 10 O'Clock at night, they
will be taken TO Jail. Many of these
Young fellows have bee ONE accustom-
ed to lettering about the depot, and
when questioned give various excuses
for not being home, some of them even
saying that they are waiting for their
mother who is attending prayer
meeting. 1t is not the wish Of the
officers to be severe with these boys,
but it is the desire of the police to
have them off the street after certain
hours at night.

more up.to-date than the Portland

CONCLUDED WITH DEBATE.
On Power of Congress to Regulate
Commerce.

WASHINGTON, May 22.-In an
open session the Senate concluded
today with an extended debate the
power of Congress to regulate the
interstate and foreign commerce and
negative poll OF % to 81 was taken
on the motion to adopt the Foraker
substitute for an interstate commerce
resolution under which the penalty
provision of the commodity clause Of
the Hepburn bill is to take effect. The
Foraker substitute provides that the
prohibition against railroads and in
terstate coal and other articles pro-
duced by them shall apply only to
property acquired since the passage
of the Hepburn rate bill, May g,
1906 The committees resolution
applied to all products without limi-
tation concerning time OF ownership.
After the substitute was lost and be-
fore the vote on the committee reso-
luton was called for, Aldrich moved
that the Senate go into executive ses-
sion.
The bill to place date on canned
meat products upon packages was dis
cussed briefly as was the omnibus
claims bill, but both were displaced.
The disagreement of the House to the
conference report on post Office ap-
preparation bill on account of pro-
vision for the ship subsidies caused
another conference to be ordered. The
amendment will still be insisted upon.
