Asked if he felt better Senator
Daniel this morning answered one of
the attending physicians, Yes" Thia
IS the first word the Senator has
spoken since he passed into the
state of coma three days ago. He
made an effort to raise his right hand
to his mouth this morning but the
effort was in vain. Doctors say that
if he continues to improve during the
next twenty-four hours as he has in
the last twelve, there may be one
chance in many of his recovery. Il.
however, he shows no further im-
provement by tomorrow morning the
end will probably come quickly say
the physicians. E. M. Daniel, the
son, and faithful wife remain by the
bedside of the noted Virginian, dur.
ing the long hours of every night
and watch with bated breath for any
signs that might signify a change for
the better. The Senator recognizes
no one and the greatest hope Of the
family and friends is that he may re-
gain consciousness long enough to
bid farewell. This may occur even
at the last moments as life is about
to expire. In addition to taking
nourishment fairly well today there
is slight lessening of the coma
over last night and at times a faint
trace of returning consciousness. The
temperature of his body is nearer
normal and his pulse condition is sat
isfactory. His kidneys continue to do
their work fairly we'll

CONGRESS IN
SESSION LONG,
WEARY HOURS.
FIGHT ON THE NORRIS REsoLu-

FACTIONS EXPRESSING EQUAL
CONFIDENCE OF VICTORY.

WASHINGTON, March Is = With
the allied forces of insurgents and
democrats claiming a majority of sew
en- votes in overturning the Common
rules whenever the question is put
to the House by the speaker, and the
regulars expressing equal confidence,
the fighting for delay over the night
deadlock was continued at ten this
morning.
Enough belated congressman wan
dered into the chamber to justify ex-
pectation that active hostilities would
be resumed. From 800 a. M, there
has been lull, groups from both sides
snatching food and sleep. During most
e.f the time Speaker Cannon, haggard
but undaunted, held the gavel ready
to checkmale any unexpected move
ment of the enemise.
Representative Norris, Cooper,
Murdock, and Gardner, ringleaders of
the House insurgents, were present
all the time hoping for an opportuni-
ty to again clip Cannon's wings. Rep
resentatives Olmstead, Butler and
Dwight, the republican whip, were
constantly near the speaker, ready
to support him in any crisis.
Speaker Cannon sought his rooms
shortly before nine this morning for
{: little sleep.
At 8: 80 this morning the war of the
insurgents and democrats against the
Cannon organization was still on in
the House, which had been in contin-
uous session for over nineteen holts
with no prospect of adjournment.
During the night regular attempts
to force adjournment were blocked b,
the opposition. Members are sleep
ing on desks and in the cloak rooms

the conclusion of a general discussion
upon Mathematics" the talk having
veered TO the influence exerted by the
college over the high school.
"The requirements" asserted Dr.
Cchaeffer, have become 80 strict that
frequently the high school student
can't be graduated at the age OF Is.
I believe that at no distant time the
high school will cut loose from the
college. Their requirements In alge-
bra and geometry are 80 strict that
the schools wholly controlled at pres
ent by the places of higher learning
will sever their connections"

first hint of the sentiment that was
