the Kosmos Cement Company, ap-
peared desnondent when no came
home from work this afternoon. He

HARTFORD. FEBRUARY No

started Immediately after the com,
mittee went into session by Sam T.
Spalding, from the Fourth district.
1t proved to be forlorn hope, how
ever. as it was impossible to get a
second to the motion. After this
effort, a motion to reafim the actor
of the committee at the two previous
meetings was made and previous
seconded, and carried by a vote OF
eleven to one. Committeeman Spald-
ing voted against the motion.
The motion to postpone action on
the call for the primary for two
weeks was vigorously opposed b.
Committeeman Goodson, of the Sec
ond district. and Spalding. of the
Fourth, both of whom contended
that it was up to the committee to
enlighten the aspirants for nomina-
tions as we'll as the Democratic vot-
ers as to just when the entries to the
primary would close. 1t was claim
ed by Mr.. Spalding that much time
had been wasted by the committee
in deciding a question which was of
the utmost Importance to the people
of the State, and that the longer the
matter was delayed by the commit
tee, the greater amount of harm it
would do to the party. With ten
members of the committee, how
ever, in favor of the adjournment
for two weeks, and the appointment
of the two legal members to assist
the subcommittee in preparing its
the motion carried with only
two dissenting votes.

Speaker Clark Not Alarmed

In that neighborhood aud so bring to
light a clue to the mysterious threat
letter received by Speaker Champ Clark
last Tuesday.
The letter, which is written In a
scraWiing hand, stated that unless an
investigation of the Washington Navy
Yard were started last Thursday twelve
pounds Of dynamite would be used to
blow up a public building near enough
to the Capitol to make Congress aware
OF the explosion. The writer states
he Is discharged employe OF the locol

Speaker Clarke did not receive the
letter personally, as it was opened by
his private secretary, Wallace Bass
ford. Word was Immediately sent to

resentatives, Joseph Sinnott, and after
conference 1t was decided that special
precautions were necessary. Superin-

SENATE COALITION
WILL RECEIVE TEST
ON FREE LIST BILL
Generally Believed That
Measure Will Be Passed
After 1t Is Amended.

Another test of the alliance between
the Senate Democrats and insurgents
will come in the Senate Tuesday when
by agreement the free list bill will
be voted on.
The general belief is that the alli-
ance will stick and that a free list
bill will he passed and thus another
tariff measure will be put up to the
President. The plan is to amend the
free list bill by striking from it GER
tain features which 1t is figured would
give further injury to the farmer,
such as free meats and free flour.
Some little doubt is felt whether the
votes can be mustered to effect these
amendments. If they cannot be mus
tered, then some Of the insurgents
will refuse to vote for the free list
bill and it is likely to fail Such a
result would be hailed with jubila-
tiOn by the regular Republicans.
Insurgents from agricultural States
are extremely dubious about the free
meat proposition. They say Argen-
tina and the Caribbean region and
Australia would swamp this country
with low-priced meats. Mexico would
do likewise.
After the disposal of the free list bill,

tendent Sylvester. Of the Police Depart.
ment, notified the precincts and the
park policemen were doubled. A yel-
lowish bit Of paper and the envelope
which bears the postmark Of south
Washington station is the only clue to
the writer,
1t was said this morning that q close
watch will be kept about all the public
buildings. The fact that no particular
building was designated for destruc-
ton makes the situation q trying one.
Speaker Clark does not seem worried.
IF a man makes up bis mind to as
sassinate me-" he said, "all the secret
service men In the country can't pre-
vent him.
Notwithstanding the Speakers atti-
tude the watch will not be relaxed,
according to the police.
The letter read in part:
Il am one Of the men who has been
discharged from the navy yard. Every
thing that is done there Is done wrong,
and the workmen have no chance at
all. 1t Is up to Congress to set this
right. want you to start an investl-
cation Of the way things are run, and
unless you do it will blow up promi-
nent building in this city, and Con-
gress will feel the shock. I have hidden

ing, and will set 1t of on Thursday

maui outing of the jefferson Club a
week from tomorrow.
Governor Judson Harmon, who also
had been invited to be present and
speak, has wired that he Is extremely
sorry, but that he happens to have an
other engagement.
Political sharps smilingly say 1t Is
significant that the governors regrets
were received directly after announce
ment that Mr.. Bryan had accepted.
They say the governor is glad to avoid
the embarrassment of meeting face to
face in his own State capital the man
who has openly declared war upon him

GALLERY
READY FOR HANGING
IN CAPITOL CHAMBER
Portraits of Eighteen Rulers
of House Debate in His
toric Collection.

Portraits of all the Speakers OF the
House of Representatives soon will be
hung in the lobby of the chamber in
the Capitol. OF the eighteen oil paint
ings ordered by the House Committee
on the Library, sixteen ore already
hung and the two others will be placed
as soon as finished by the artists.
A resolution of the House, passed on
March 8, authorized the purchase of the
pictures. The cooperation of Frank d.
Millet, secretary of the Fine Arts Com
mission, was secured, and every portrait
was passed upon gratuItously by this
artist.
The commission given by the Library
Committee to the artists called for the
completion OF the portraits by June 80,
and this condition has been met by the
artists.
A price of $500 for each picture,
framed, was fixed by the committee.

of the late Rev. Edward Everett Hale;

the Senate will wrestle with cotton. The
indications still favor passage by the
Senate of a cotton bill. A conference Of
Democratic Senators on tariff this week
is being talked of.
If a cotton bill is passed. the measure
probably will be another compromise
between the House bill and the La Fol-
lette bill. In other words. the Senate Is
likely to take about the same course on
cotton revision II did on wool This is
always providing the Democratic ana
lnsurgent alliance holds fast. Some or
the democrats are not as keen Tor pas
sage of a cotton bill as they were Tor
~ ool bill, but it Is the prevailing belief
that a majority will line up for cotton
hill.
Efforts will be made to attach revision
Of the steel and sugar schedules and
probaG one or two other schedules to
the cotton bill.
Senate insurgent leaders are apparent
ly not perturhed by the talk Of House
Democratic leaders that they will not
consent to any compromise on wool
bill.
They are doing a pretty stiff line of
talking themselves, but are prepared to
make some concessions. They think the
House Democrats will yield something
also when 1t comes to showdown.

Thought Drowned, He
Returns From Hospital

NEW YORK. July 30.-After being
given up for drowned by his family
and friends Louis Saphier has Just
been released from hospital in New
Rochelle, and appears to be none the
worse for a prolonged submersion.
This information was conveyed to the
police of the West 1920 street station
today, who were informed on July s
that Saphier's clothes were found in
Washington Heights bathing pavilion.
1t was believed he was drowned.
Saphier lives with his wife and two
children at III Lenox avenue. When
seen last night he appeared perturb-
ed that any one should be interested
in him.
