PHILADELPHIA. Pa, Jan, 27.-Res-
olutions were forwarded to Congress

though there is plenty Of work to be
done. many of the men have been laid

were I. SS7 skilled mechanics in the re-
pair shops. Now there are only about
400. Wages paid here were also said

NEW CABINET STORY
RECALLSAR ROMANCE
Son Of Senator Knox Flop
ed With Pretty Bessie
McCoOk.

The report that John James McCooS,
Of New York will be made Secretary Of
War IN the Taft Cabinet, has caused
the greatest interest It has been inn
possible TO secure confirmation or final
denial of the story, but it is regarded
for various reasons as by no means un-
likely.
McCoOk is a New York lawyer, with
an office at l20 Broadway, and residence
at 10 West Fifty-fourth street He is a
member OF the famous Ohio family
alown to American history as the
lghJug MCCOOks.' lie is now almost
slNJy-tnree years Old and was the
youngest OF the five brothers, ali OF
whom attained fame i'm the civil war
lie served in the West, and later in
the East with Grant. rising from private
b. distinguished gallautTy to lieutenant
colonel. He was offered the war port
folio by Mckinley.
One reason why it is suspected Nc
Cook NAV be put in the Cabinet is IT. at
Senator Knox. who viii be premier, Is
a relative by marriage OF the MCCOCKs.
me pretty story of the Senator's son S
marriage to Miss Bessie McCOok, two
years ago, Is still fresh I'm the Wash
lngtOn mind. The young man, Reed
Knox, and Miss MCCoOk. had quietly be
come engaged. She was a member OF
the Ohio MCCoOk family living In
Washington with relatives. One even
ing the lovers decided there was no
reason for waiting longer; so they took
an auto, drove to Alexandria, Va, and
were married.
They went back to Washington an,
sent word to the relatives OF both. There
was very, very brief period Of SUR
prise and shock and then Senator and
Mrs. Knox sent for the couple, gave
them the blessing, and forgave every
thing. The next day Senator Knox was
asked about the elOpement
Well he replied, Il find that 1 have
lost nothing and have gained most
charming daughter, without the fuss
ana trouble of a big wedding. I'm right
pleased 90
The fact that McCook is peculiarly
available for the Cabinet, being both an
Ohioan and New Yorker, together
with the fact that Senator Knox is hav-
ing much TO do with making the Cabi-
net, has added decided interest to the
MCCOOk report.

defense. are being heard. The State
asks that he be excluded. while the
defense seeks TO retain him on the

Child Labor Regulation
Plan Not Regarded FeaS-
IDLE By Senators.
UNCONSTITUTIONAL

Scheme to Employ Commerce
Clause Also Not in Favor
in the South.

senator Beverages child labor bin,
which has aroused discussion from one
end of the county 10 the other has
been put out Of the running for the rest
of this session.
The Senate not only viii not pass IL
this session. but it will not be given
any extended attention. Indeed there
are indications that the movement 10
set child labor regulated by the Gov
eminent. through the employment OF
the interstate commerce Clause OF the
Constitution. is going to DO abandoned
Senator Beverages bill is now pend
ing in the Senate Committee on Educa-
ton and Labor. Senator DoiliVer Is
chairman OF this committee. Last ses-
SION Senator Beverage got an agree
ment out OF the committee that II
would consider the bill at the beginning
of this, the short, session. Shortly
after the opening of the present session
the Committee on Education and Labor
held a meeting and indefinitely post
uoned the bill. Senator Beverage was
not I'm Washington at the time
Committee Not Willing.
Since it indefinitely postponed the bill
the Committee on Education and Labor
has shown no symptoms OF a willingness
to give the child labor measure further
consideration.
One reason why the committee is in
different TO the bill IS that the feeling
of most of the lawyers on that commit
tee that child labor cannot be regulated
in the fashion proposed. If it can be,
they say, then there has been a wide
misunderstanding and lack Of cOmpre-
hension on the part Of good lawyers as
Of 0.1v4rrgrars-sa s4Fsrr Of
the Constitution.
Senator Beverage maintains that child
labor can be regulated in the manner
he proposes under the Constitution, but
while he has presented the arguments
for this proposition ably in Congress,
this IS not the view of most OF the Sen
ate lawyers.
South Opposes It.
The Southern Senators are especially
antagouistic to this proposition. One
reason is that the Beveridge bill. II
passed. would strike hard at the employ
ment of child labor in the South, and the
other reason is that if the theory of
regulation OF child labor as embodied in
this measure is tenable. then the power
OF the Federal Government 20 supersede
the States in the regulation OF matters
OF this kind viii be carried forward in
various directions 20 the weakening Of
the authority of the States
Further than this, there is difficulty in
the way Of the bill in the Tact that
much Of the pressure for IL that was felt
here last session is not being 1elt-
