CAPITAL JOTTiNGS.

The first step toward clothing the
army in a new summer uniform will
be taken Thursday. when special
board of army officers will open bids
in Philadelphia for furnishing the new
shade of olive drab cotton cloth to the
quartermaster's department At least
$4,000 yards of cloth are desired by
the army.
Beekman Winthrop, assistant secre-
tary of the navy, estimated Tuesday
that the new system of paying en-
ployes at navy yards and stations put
in force in line with the general poll
icy of economy inaugurated by Pres
ident Taft will save the government
$125,000 a year. Further improvements
are counted on to increase this saving
many more thousands. Formerly all the
employees We're paid at one pay station
in the yard. Now automobiles. bicycles,
railroad cars and other vehicles are
utilized to take the money to the en-
ployes instead of requiring him to come
to the central pay station and stand in
line o long time.

Lectures on Wooden Industry=--War-
rem on Cost of Suit of Clothes.

Washington, June S.-There was n
great deal of good humbr and many
nleasantries injected into the debate
on the wooden schedule in the Senate
today, Mr.. Deliver being the central
figure He offered several amendments
and announced his intention of present
ina: q number of others appealing to the
Republican members to vote for them,
because, he said, these amendments
would justify the attitude of the Re
publican party in advocating protcc-
tive tariff.

an expert on the wooden industry, de

stances, provides higher duties than

one of the interesting features of the
day was a lecture on the wooden indus
try from beginning to end, by Mr.. Car
ter who brought forth large box
filled with samples of various grades
of wool. TO the senators who gathered
about him. he explained each step in
the manufacture of wooden goods from
the raising of the sheep to the making
III the garment. He familarized the
Members of the Senate with the uses
of shocdy, waste, noils tops and the
various grades of wool.
He became involved in an argument
with Mr.. Smoot as to the feasibility
duties, the latter contending that 1t
would be impossible to collect the du-
ties on that basis, because the Ameri-
can manufacturers want their wool in
the grease, and hardly any of them
use the same methods Of securing the
