Gloomy FOrebodinEs.

After the vote had been taken and the
usual motion 20 reconsider AID 20 lay on
the table was adopted the House speedily
adjourned.
Republicans gathered IN little knots
and discussed the situation. and some
very gloomy forebodIngs as 20 political
effect upon the Republican party were
voiced.
Representative Mann. OF Illinois. seemed
10 be about the most indignant man
among the Republican dlssenters. The
real dissatisfaction Of the Republicans
was expressed in the narrow majority by
which the motion 20 recommit the bill
was defeated-5
An analysis OF the rou call shows that
II the Democrats had voted solldly and
the absent Democrats who were IN
paired had been present and voting the
bill would have been lost The effect OF
the adoption Of thu motion 20 reoommit
would have been to bury the bill
Had the bill been reconmitted Il would
not have reappeared in this session OF
Congress. The Senate insurgents would
have plucked up courage, and there
would have been an Adjournment sine die
within a week

half into the corridors. William J. Bryan
was one Of the performers in this episode,
and. in fact, suggested Il.
No adnirIng Republican suggested that
Mr.. Payne be carried out. Perhaps the
disparity IN weight between the present
author OF a tariff bill and the West vir-

may have been the deterrent
Mr.. Wilson weighed about 1l5 pounds,
while Mr.. Payne is lowering in the vicm-

graduation.

fostered by Maryland Baptist.
By FRANKLIN F. JOHNSON.

During the past ten years the Bap-
tist denomination has made wonderful
progress in membership and in the
erection and fostering of denomina
tional schools and colleges in various
sections of the United States. Partc
ular attention Is directed at the pres
ent time to the Baptists of Maryland
At Baltimore they are quietly build
ing up a school, unaided by any help
outside of the state, which bids fair to
become one of the most helpful insti-
tutions of learning which the race has
to its credit in any of the states. The
school in question is the Clayton-Wil
liams university, which occupies a
building at 424 St BiddIe street.
This school is the outgrowth of a
class started about ten years ago
where Baptist ministers were given in
struction in theology and church his
tory. Realizing the need of an edu-
Gated ministry, the Rev. Dr. Harvey
johnson, the able and race loving pas
tor of Union Baptist church, Balti-
more, founded the Clayton Williams
academy. A building was purchased
In the eastern section of the city, where
the school remained until the building
was sold. 1t was continued in a
church until the churches raised money
for the purchase of the present com
modious building Two years ago the
name was changed to Clayton-Wil-
liams university. The school has grad
uated three classes and has an enroll
ment of seventy-fve students.
Instruction is given in the collegiate
and theological branches. The presi-
dent of the university is the Rev. DR..

of Lincoln university and Newton The

cities to get instruction in these
branches.
The school owes its present standing
to the unaided efforts of Marylands
colored Baptists. and its broadening
will surely come by their own efforts,
as both Baptist conventions at their
recent annual sessions voted to raise
more money next year for the univer
sity. In speaking of the school DR..
Waller said few days ago:
THE university, which is named for
two of the pioneers in our denomina-
ton in Maryland, will aim to give the
highest and best training to our youth.
We stand for the broadest training for
our young men, believing that it will
enable them to climb the ladder of
higher intellectual usefulness"

Eastern District Grand Tents

The most important event in the Sc

of Brooklyn, n. Y. was the annual con
vention of the most worthy Eastern
District grand tent. No 3. the Order of
]. R. Giddings and Joliffe union, which
was held for three days in the Bridge
Street \. NJ. f. church a few days ago.
The presiding officer was Mrs. Louisa
Marshall Of New York.
The Eastern District grand tent is
composed of forty-fve different orders
and includes in its territory New York,
New Jersey and the New England
states. There We're about 80 dele
gates and high officers in attendance
The order is a sick and death benefit
society composed entirely OF women
and has existed about forty years.

and the various reports showed that
the order was In a healthy condition

Respect For Negro Genius.
Tennessee has put the ban on Negro
Elks. We never expected anything
else. Our people will learn sense yet
White men organized the Elks. and If
they object what right have Negroes
to attempt to butt in? We have more
respect for that ignorant Negro who
goes out and organizes an order and
selects every letter In the alphabet to
make up the initials of its name than
we have for that wise Negro who at
tempts to get into the white mans or
der by fraud and deception. We have
never heard of the Mosaics, Friend
ships or Knights of Tabor having to
enjoin white men from using their
name or works. The white people
know that the Negroes do not want
them in these orders, and they are not
making themselves obnoxious by try.

HARBoR SURVEY AT CHICAGO.
Federal Examination Of Lake Michi-
gan Shore Line Begins.
rom the Chicago News.


Possibility of harbor improvements for
Chicago took a more tangible form Tues
day when United States Army engineers
began preliminary examination and
survey of the Lake Michigan shore line
umet rivers with view to estimate the
probable cost and feasibility of the pro-
ject to dig a deep channel in the water
ways and provide a suitable location for
the projected new harbor. The survey
will include the shore line between Chi
cago and Gary. Ind. and the preliminary
work will extend over q period of six
weeks. Maj. Thomas A. Rees. head of
the Chicago district of the army en-
cheering department. is in charge of the
work.
1.-THE survey was authorized in re-
cent appropriation bill approved March
g." said the government engineer officer.
THE War Department desires complete
and detailed information of conditions
here so far as they might affect harbor
construction. Our preliminary examina-
ton will give a basis to estimate the cost
to the government II the proposed project
of harbor and deep navigation in the
rivers assumes definite shape. My report
will be ready in about six weeks.
The army engineers will include in their
work the examination OF the west fork
of the south branch of the Chicago river
obtaining q channel twenty-one feet deep
and 100 feet wide. If the report of Maj.
Rees Is approved the officer will begin the
preparation of definite plans and specifi-
cations. All of the work. according to
the engineer. will be done in a way to
conform as much as possible to the plans
of the city engineers, who are consid-
ering the new harbor improvements.
