Washington, d. C.-The second
session Of the Sixty-first congress died
a natural death at IL o'clock Satur-
day night, when the vice-president
and Speaker Cannon simultaneously
banged their gavels and announced
that dissolution had taken place.
The senate passed sedately away to
the accompaniment of tradition, GUS
tom, precedent and dignity, while the
house, as always, expired with sing
ing, laughter, quips, jokes, and the
usual boisterousness. The two varie.
ties of demise become more accentu-
ated as the years roll around.
The closing scene In the senate
were quiet and scattered. After meet
ing at 10 o'clock and drolling along
for two hours, Mr.. Hale. sought to
ring in a recess, but the desire to
talk was so great that he grew dis
gusted and gave it up. Later in the
afternoon baseball fever broke out
and Mr.. Hale forced a recess until 9
o'clock in order that everybody might
see the horsehide fly. Five minutes
later Vice-President Sherman and a
party of friends were whirling In an
auto toward the ball park. Racing
after them were Senators Crane,
Scott and other devotees of the game.
When the senate reconyened set
speeches by Senators Simmons and
Stone whiled away the time. Before
the oratory began all the "unobject-'
ed" house bills were taken up and
passed.
Stone Is Aggrieved.
Senator Stone became much ag-
grieved when his bill to permit a
dam across the James river failed. He
waited to tack 1t on as an amendment
to the general dam bill, but was out
taking a drink Of lemonade when it
went through. Returning a minute
later Mr.. Stone inquired Of the chair,
What has become of that dam bill?'
THAT dam bill has passed." replied
Mr.. Sherman in loud tones.
Whereupon everybody laughed.
Senator Owen attempted to make q
few inspiring dissertations on his bill
to establish a bureau Of public health
which has been opposed as a "doc.
tors trust" but Mr.. Hale was obdur.
ate and determined there should be
no more speech-making at this SEES
sion.
Shortly after 10 o'clock President
Taft came hustling UP to the senate
and took possession of the oom sci
