SENATE VOTE IS 80 TO IS
AGAINST WOMAN SUFFRAGE
Legislators Keep Measure Before
Judiciary Committee at Albany
BILL WILL WIN, SAYS NEWcOMB
Mrs. Batch and Her Aids Take Note
of Those Who Oppose Their
Fight--Sentiment Growing in
Favor of Measure.

Albany, NJ Y.-The Senate refused
to discharge the Judiciary Committee
from consideration of the constitu-
tional amendment giving suffrage to
women by vote of 80 to 16. The
Senators who registered their APP
prevail of woman's right to vote were:
Allen, Brough, Burlingame, Emer-
son, Heacock, Holden, Hubbs, New
comb, Rose and Schlosser, Republi~
cans. and Bayne, Gardner, Harte, Nc
Manus, Stillwell and G. d. Sullivan,
Democrats.
Those voting in the negative were:
Agnew, Alt. Bracket, Goats, Cobb,
Cordts, Davenport, Davis, Gledhill,
Grattan, Griffith, Hamilton, Hewitt,
Hill, Hinman, Kissell, Mackenzie,
Meade, Platt, Thomas, Travis, Vain
wright, White and Witter, Republic
cans, and Caffrey, Cronin, Cullen,
Grady, Harden and Transporter, DEM
ocrats. Senator Frawley, Democrat,
the only absentee when the vote was
taken, said IL he had been present he
would have voted in the negative.
The subject was brought up by
Senator Newcomb at the request of
Mrs. Harriet Stanton Batch and 9TH
err advocates.sof woman suffrage. who
were present with the notebooks to
make record of the attitude of the In
dividual Senators on the question.
Senator Newcomb said:
II believe that sentiment in favor
of woman suffrage is growing and
that ultimately it will win"
Senators Travis and Hill opposed
the motion, while Senator'S Hill and
Bayne put themselves on record in
favor of woman suffrage. Senator
Bracket spoke in opposition, argu-
ing that the proper procedure was to
pass his bill permitting the women of
the State at the next election to pass
on the question whether they desire
the right to vote.

Baby's Scalp All crusted over,

"Our little daughter, when three
months old, began to break out on the
head, and we had the best doctors to
treat her, but they did not do her any
good. They said she had eczema. Her
scalp was solid scale all over. The
burning and itching was SO severe
that she could not rest, day or night.
We had about given up all hopes
when we read of the Cuticura Rene
dies. We at once got a cake OF Cuti-
cura Soap, box of Cuticura Oint-
ment and one bottle of Cuticura Re-
solvent, and followed directions care
fully. After the first dose OF the Cuti-
cura Resolvent, we used the Cuticura
Soap freely and applied the Cuticura
Ointment. Then she began to I'M
prove rapidly and in two weeks the
scale came off her head and new hair
began to grow. In very short time
she was well. She is now sixteen
years of age and picture of health.
We used the Cuticura Remedies about
five weeks, regularly, and then we
could not tell she had been affected
by the disease. We used no other
treatments after we found out what
the Cuticura Remedies would do for
her. ]. Fish and Ella M. Fish, Mt.

STEAMBOAT CUT IN TWO.
Eighteen Drowned in Lake Huron
During a Fog.
The James q. Woods Crashes Into the
Steel Frcighter at Full Speed
on Lake Huron.

Port Huron, Mich. Eighteen pST-
sons drowned in Lake Huron when
the big steel freighter, Frank H.
Goodyear, of Cleveland, was run down
in a heavy fog and sunk twenty-five
miles of Pointe AUX Barques by the
freighter James B. Wood, also of
Cleveland. Only five persons on the
Goodyear, one of them woman, are
known to have been saved.
The Wood arrived here with the
five survivors She had six-foot
hole punched in her bow and was list
ing badly. One of the survivors was
Mrs. Emma Bassett.
The cook had just sounded the
second call for breakfast on the Good
year when the crash came, and many
were in the mess room. All rushed
on deck, and then the boat began to
sink. Some jumped into the water
and managed to get out of reach Of
the boat, which was fast filling.
Suddenly the Goodyear parted in
the centre, and with sound which
could be heard above the whistling Of
the Wood, sank out Of sight.
Captain Gibson, of the Wood, low
cred the lifeboats and ordered the
crew to make every effort to save the
sailors of the sinking steamer.
Within short time the yawl was
brought alongside the Wood, and
Captain Hemenger, Steward Frank
Bassett, Mrs. Emma Bassett, Frank
Mollick and George Grant were taken
aboard, all exhausted by their exer-
lions and the length of time they were
in the water.
With his infant child in his arms
Steward Bassett had almost reached
safety in one of the lifeboats when
one of the tumbling matches snatched
the baby from his arms. The little
one fell into the lake and was
drowned despite the frantic efforts
Of its father to recover it.
Mrs. Bassett, of Algonac, told the
following story:

the whistles of both boats. reached
the deck just as the crash came and
grabbed a life preserver. In my ex-
element could only get it over one
arm, but jumped over the rail.

and when / came up found my son
Frank was the man on the board.
I called for help, but it seemed as
though no one would hear me. Then
I secured hold of the sinking vessel
and managed to hang to window
sill. I shouted to Frank and asked
him where his wife and baby were,
but he replied that he feared they
had gone down.

my hold when saw small boat

that he had discovered the proof of

the Nobel prize for Professor Albert

Professor Milliken gave out the re-

that work carried on by himself and
Professor Harvey Fletcher prove the

In summarizing the results of his
experiments Professor Milliken said:
"We have succeeded in isolating an

Guile of air is in rapid motion, but we
measured the order of magnitude of
energy of agitation and find 1T to
agree with the computations based
upon the kinetic theory
In brief the method by which all
these results have been obtained is as
follows: We blow a cloud of fine oil
or mercury drop by means of an
atomizer, and introduce one of these
drops through a pinhole into the
space between the plates of hori-
zontal air condenser. The droplet
there catches one or more of the ions
which normally exist in air or which
have been produced in the space be-
tween the plates by any of the usual
ionizing agents, like radium or X
rays. The time of fall of this droplet
through measured distance is OBJ
served when no electrical field exists
between the plates, then a field Of
strength between 1000 and 5000 volts
per centimeter is thrown on and the
time of rise of the droplet under the
influence of this field through the
same distance is again measured. This
operation Is repeated and the speeds
checked an Indefinite number of times
or until the droplet catches new ion,
when its speed, under the influence Of
the field, instantly changes, though
the speed under gravity remains con-
slant. From the sign and magnitude
of the change in speed the sign and
exact value of the charge carried by
a captured ion is determined. The
air in a single observation need not
exceed one-third of one per cent.
From the values of the speeds OBJ
served all of the conclusions may be
directly deduced."

Bill President Will Study.

The proposed change in the system
OF government may be a matter OF
years. Its authors disclaim any con-
| nection of the Ballinger scandal with
it. The change, If it is ever made,
will probably come long after Mr.. Bal
linger has retired. 1t is not advo-
Gated as a means by which substi-
tute Cabinet officer can be chosen to
supplant Mr.. Bailinger.
One OF the reasons urged for the
new department is the Panama Ca
nal. When that enterprise is COM
pleted it will have to be administered
by business men. The War Depart
ment and the Navy Department will
protect 1t, but when it comes to the
exactions of ships tolls and other
business matters business men will
be called upon to take charge.
Mr.. Hammond said:
Il believe that Department of
Public Works, similar to that which
Is maintained by the English Govern
ment, would conduce to more eco
nomical administration of the various
interests of the United States A de-
partment which would take over the
control of the physical property of the
Government, which would supervise
and take care of the expenditures for
buildings and other big improve
ments, such as the Panama Canal and
other projects, would be the best bust
ness policy which could be adopted.
The various bureaus and other organ
| izations which now control these en-
fterprises and this enormous wealth

cal affairs of the Government as adj
