HEPBURN OPPOSES
HOMESTEAD BILL.
Asserts Amendment to Measure
Makes i Land Grabbing Scheme
Will Talk il to Death.

Washington, May Ex-senator Hey.
burn, Of Idaho, yesterday sent out an
alarm to the effect that he would talk
the measure to death rather than per.
NIT the adoption of a conference re-
port on the bill to provide an enlarg-
ed homestead. The bill as passed by
the Senate limited the increased
homestead OF 800 acres to non-irriga.
BILE, arid and semi-arid land, and the
House struck out "arid and semi.arid
land"
Senator Hepburn charged that the
bill was land grabbing measure, per-
single settler to take 320
instead Of 160 acres of non.irrigable
land, which In Idaho, he said, would
include land that does not need irri.
cation, so that the restriction against
non-irrigable land was without effect.
"lf the Senate has any business it
desires to attend to in the near future,
would suggest that the consideration
Of this report be deferred he said.
He insisted that II the bill was to be
passed 1t be amended to except Idaho.
He thought the senators from Califor-
MIA had the same objections to 1t that
he had. The senator suggested that he
had always supposed the views OF a
senator were consulted In enactIng
legislation affecting his state.
Senator Newlands interposed to
say he understood that the two Idaho
senators were divided upon this sub.
ject, but Mr.. Borah disavowed the at
titude, saying that as the bill had been
amended, he was opposed to It.
Senator Flint insisted that Califor-
MIA objected to the report, that it was
unjustly lncre; the homestead
from 100 to g.. s. Mr.. Hepburn
proceeded to make good his threat to
talk until the session closed anu alter
an hour had passed, Mr.. Nelson, Of
Minnesota. suggested to Senator
Smoot that the conference report be
withdrawn and that course was follow

NO CHANCE FOR
CURRENCY BILL
Hope For Any Legislation on This I'm.
portant Subject at Present Session
Abandoned.

Washington, May 19.--That there
will be no currency legislation at the
present session Of Congress is now
believed by many members to be al.
most certainty. Conferees on the
Senate and House bills have held sew
eral sessions in an effort to work out
something under the head of the "Ald.
rich-Vreeland" bill but 1t is now said
they have abandoned hope. AS a re-
suit there is a decided sentiment
among the conferees and leaders Of
both branches to let the whole sub.
ject 60 over until the next session Of
Congress.

PROMINENT EASTERN
MANUFACTURER HERE
Palmer c. Brown, Interested in Glori.
eta Mercantile and Live Stock Com
pany Visiting in Territory.

Palmer c. Brown, who is connected
in an important capacity with five
factories that manufacture hosiery in
Philadelphia, was visitor In the Cap.
ital yesterday. He Is also vice-presi.
dent Of the Glorieta Mercantile and
Livestock company Of which Walter
M. Taber is the successful manager,
which is engaged in sheep raising and
also in mercantile business at Glori.
eta.
The FIVE companies with which Mr..
Brown Is connected are the Brown
Aberle company, Thomas Il. Brown
and Son, Brown Knitting company,
Glen Knitting company and Brown
Moore Hosiery company. They are lo-
Gated within half mile of each other
in the city of Brotherly Love and turn
out five thousand dozen or sixty thou
sand pairs of hosiery every twenty
four hours.
These factories were established
about twenty years ago and at first
1t was very hard and difficult to place
the goods on the market In competi-
ton with German hosiery which was
cheaper. With the provisions Of the
Dingley tariff it was found that sue
cessful competition could be had with
the German manufacturers and the ex-
tent and scope Of the factories In
creased right along. Today these fac.
tories are turning out as fine products
and in some respects finer than do
the German manufacturers. Competi-
tlon nevertheless Is keen. AS the Ger
man output of hosiery IS much greater
than the demand and must find mar
ket elsewhere, the surplus products
that cannot be sold In Europe Is sent
to this country by German manufac-
turers at lower rates than the Ameri-
can product, but the latter more than
holds it's own.
Mr.. Brown returned to Glorleta yes
terday afternoon driving overland
with Mr.. Taber. He expects to visit
the territory hereafter twice a year
and may spend several weeks next
year on the Pecos National Forest.
His son-in.law, J. P. Williamson. and
daughter, Mrs Williamson, with their
child. are now domiciled at Glorieta
with Mr.. Taber.

paralyzed when found, but told them his
name and asked for drink and to be
placed in the shade. Word was sent
