FASTER MAIL FROM ENGLAND.
Plan to Save Ten Hours BY Omittina
Call at Queenstown.

London. April 21.-A memorial signed
by the leading members of the Liver
pool chamber of commerce urging thai
the Lusitania and Mauretania may no.
be required to call at Queenstown r1l
the mails has been submitted to the
postmaster general this week
The signatories point out that of the
vessels were able to sail direct from,
Liverpool for New York at > p. NJ on
Saturdays. about ten hours would be
gained in the time of arrival at New
York through emitting the call a.
Queenstown. The result Of ten hours'
gain between Liverpool and New York
would be that Thursday delivery nf
mails to addresses in New York would
be rendered possible, since it is under
stood that when the Lusitania and
Mauretania are running on the soutn-
ern track from August to the end of the
year. they would be due to arrive in
New York soon after Thursday noon.
1t is also anticipated that if the per-
mission sought be granted material
Improvement will be effected in the de-
livery of mails throughout the United
States generally, and thus will shorten
the time required for the replies to be
received in this country.
The memorial further points out that
a collection OF English and Irish letters
late Friday night. instead of at vary
ing times on Saturday as at present,
would not entail serious hardship IN
view of the fact that Saturday is al
most universally observed as a half
holiday in business circles
The postmaster general so far has
given no indication of the tenor of 'he
reply to be made to the memorial; bal.
it is generally believed that the desired
alteration will be made

There was very full attendance of
senators when the reading of the tari1
bin, paragraph by paragraph. was be
gun in the Senate today on motion OF
Mr.. Aldrich. On Mr.. Aldrici's sug-
eestion. it was agreed that any amend
ment to which there should be obJec-
ton should be passed over with the
understanding that any senator might
move at any time to take up any para
graph after it had been read.
MI Dolliver suggested that the reel
procity and retaliatory clauses ana
draw back and the administrative fea-
lures of the bill ought to be reported
by the committee on finance before the
consideration of the bill was N4egun.
Various suggestions were made for adj
di:ional tabulated statements for the
use of senators in order to Facilitate
an understanding on various schedules
Of the bill and Mr.. Aldrich agreed t.
have such statements prenared. After
questions by various senators concern
ing their right at any time to suggest
amendments to the bill. the reading
WAS begun. AS it was prcceede with
questions We're frequently asked by
senator's concerning different items of
the bill. but the reading proceeded at
considerable length before there was
any serious interruption. one IF the
first suggestions came from Mr.. Dolli-
yer. who criticised the action of the
committee in increasing the Payne
rates on manufactured celluioid arti-
cles to the existing rates. EXplana-
tinns were made by Messrs Aldrich
and Smoot that the manufacturers OF
celluloA goods in the United States
are in danger of being driven out of
business by cheap manufacturers in
Japan. Mr.. Smoot said that two new
large factories are now being built in
that country. Mr.. Briggs gave notice
that he would offer an amendment for

 No labor troubles of any kind are hindering the wok of the Tanana and the operators are expecting heavier output this year than in the two sea- sons past There is sufficient labor in the camp to handle all the work that is to be done and this and other camps along the Yukon are in lourishing con ditions.
 The high prices of last winter have been reduced by number of shippers who have flooded the country with heavy shipments of supplies, and many of the operators who ceased work be- cause of the prohibitory prices are now preparing for active work on their claims.

 SUCCESS

It was the verdict of all the specta tors who saw the Code moving picture show Saturday night that the pictures shown could not have been improved upon, and that thy were as perfect a any ever seen anywhere.
 The public generally was under the impression that the old machine for merly used was to show the pictures, but Code proved his statements that he purchased a brand new Edison ma chine this sumer.
 The pictures were shown with re- markable clearness and were so very steady that it seemed the moving figures were acting their parts on the stage. Many of the pictures were thrilling, especially Honor Among Thieves" "The Rivals" and "The Cord of Life while others such as Love Finds a Way and "Dr Wrignts 1n- vention' were particularly humorous
 Code has other films which are to be shown at future performances. He receives the films from the states, on a circuit, and when he finishes with the films they are sent on to the next patron in another town. Later in the season Code will show the Cans Nel- son fight, forty-two rounds, requiring two hours and twenty-six minutes.

 BUTLER, Pa, July 17.-Eight thou sand steel workers have struck here demanding higher wages, offering such threats against the properties of the companies that the state militia has been called out to protect the owners of the shops and their properties
 The strike followed that at Keesport where SO much rioting has occurred in the past three days the local work CTS joining the strike in sympathy wit their fellow workers of the other cities.
 Arbitration may settle the trouble, a conference of the strike leaders and employers having been called for to- night for that purpose, though the em- ployes declare they will return to work only when their demands have been granted.
 The militia arrived here late this afternoon making camp near the steel plants which have been closed by the
