Deacon John P. Sayles, a wealthy and

some OF his critical observations were

WASHINGTON, D. C., April "a
Important work Of picking up the

ed and it was agreed that an amend

The question Of duty on coal was

il has decided to recommend con-
tinuance of the present rate. The
steel men have been insisting that a
rate Of 1892 per ton on rails is too
low to give the American manufae-

said, while the sufragiSt people were
there. Many OF them wore such big
hats that II was impossible for the
members Of the Legislature to get
around. :. :,
"I think that those big hats did
more damage to the cause OF woman
suffrage than anything else that hap
pened there, The poor legislators
were always humping their faces
against big straw hats or scratching
themselves on feathers or long hat
pins"
Legislators, when interviewed, ae-
knowledged that the information was
correct,
The position Of the opposition is
thus stated by Mrs, Oliver w. Stew
art. president Of the Illinois woman
Suffrage Association;
If the Illinois Legislators would
use some OF their energy in seriously
considering woman suffrage or some
Of the other important issues before
them instead Of thinking up such rid
iculous measures as this hat bill, they
would be Of greater service to their
state"
