SENATE HOLDS ALL
 NIGHT SESSION ON
 TARIFF BOARD BILL
CONTINUED FROM FACE

marking time, the attendance being small and those present occupying their time ill story telling.
 Secretary Norton was at the capitol during the evening and is understood to have made several futile attempts to induce democratic senators not to hold up the supply bills. Among others he talked with was Senator Owen. It was not stated that his mission was on be- half of President Taft but that was the impression gained by those with whom the executive secretary talked.
 Bill Laid Aside
 It was 455 D. m when the attempt to force the tariff board bill to a vote was abandoned. MT. McCumber called up the pension appropriation bill This had the effect of laying aside the tariff board bill indefinitely. The democrats offered no objection to the pension bill carrying $153.000,O0O until Senator Scott attempted to put the Subway general service pension bill on the ap- propriation measure as a rider. The Subway bill would add about s50,000,- 900 to the annual roll and would grant pensions indiscriminately to all veter- ans of the civil war who had served 90 days and had reached the age of 62 years.
 Following the disposition of the pen- sion bill the Senate took up and quick ly disposed of the diplomatic and con cular bill, carrying about S4,00O.0o0 and the fertilization bill, carrying about s5,000,000. It had required just 15 minutes to get these three supply measures out of the way. This wa. too rapid work to suit plans of Sena- tor owen, and when the military academy appropriation bill, carrying $1, 800, 900, was taken up he began [; little bilib uster all his own. He first insisted that he would not consent to have dispensed the first formal reading of the bill covering 34 pages. A mum. Der of senators. both democrats and republicans, gathered about the sena- tors desk and pleaded with him not to stand in the way of the supply bills
 Wants Extra Session
 'I want to force an extra session. he told them. This Congress has no moral right to pass these measures"
 Along toward 6 o'clock, when it was announced that 8 recess until S:15 would be asked for, Senator Owen said he would let the military academy bill pass. But" he added, If these big bills are to be hur- ried through in this fashion I shall insist that every item in each bill be separately read and ser.~ately voted upon.' At 6.10 tho4 ess until S:15 was ordered
 The postoff 1s appronsiation bill was taken up whe.i the Senate resumed bus mess at S:15 D. m. Senator Owen who began a lone filibuster against the sur- ply bills during the afternoon, intimated that he had to continue obstructive tao tics. Under his demand the postoffice bill was ordered read He tried also to obtain an explanation of the various items, but Vice President Sherman sail

Huntsville Expects to Effect Agreement at Confer

Huntsville, March 2.-(Special.) )-An ina- portant conference will be held in Hunts ville tomorrow night by business men of this city, Carroll P. Cooper. general agent for the Southern rail- way, and W. II. Knox of the Nash vile, Chattanooga and St. Louis railway relative to a union depot in Huntsville and the new cotton compress that has re- gently been established here by Tennessee parties. It is learned that an agreement between the two railroads on the depot question is an imminent probability
 The compress is of great importance also because it paves the way for the restoration of Huntsville's importance as a cotton shipping point This city was for many years one of the principal ship ping points for cotton in Alabama. Now it is the largest consumer in the state. That fact in connection with the lack of compress facilities caused the railroads to distribute the business elsewhere. /

Old Guard Beaten In Senate.

By piece of very clever pa liza,
mentary maneuvering on the part of
the Republican progressives and the
Democrats in the senate the Republi-
can "old guard" was out-generaled
and the resolution for the direct cleo
tion of senators by popular vote was
made the unfinished business of the
senate.
This meanG that the resolution to
submit this constitutional amendment
to the states will be before the senate
to the exclusion of all excepting privi-
legged business until a final vote is
had.
The overthrow of the "old guard
by a series of skirmishes in parlia-
mentary tactics followed and annulled
an earlier decision of the senate to
make the Alaskan coal land bill, q
conversion measure, the unfinished
business.

Two Railroads to Spend $75,ooo,ooo.
The executive committee of the I'm
ion Pacific and Southern Pacific lines
voted in New York to complete the
double tracking of their lines from
the Missouri river to San Francisco.
They also voted to double track the
Oregon Short Line from the junction
with the Union Pacific main line at
Granger, Wyo., to Huntington, Ore;
also the line along the Columbia river
in Oregon to Portland, a total distance
of 1873 miles.
The cost of the double tracking of
the lines as determined upon will ag-
gregate upwards of $75,000,000, which
will be distributed over a period of
five years.
In a statement accompanying the
announcement of the double tracking
project the president, Robert S. Low
ett, commented upon the reasons that
| had impelled the roads to reach their
decision and declared the belief OF
himself and his associates that pres
ent conditions, considered unfavorable
| to the railroads, were but temporary.

Cider Barrel a Bee Hive.

When John R. H. Hayes, of Monroe,
N. Y, discovered bees crawling about
the floor of his furnace room he in
vestigated and saw they were coming
from the bunghole of what he sup.
posed to be an empty cider barrel.
The barrel was heavy, so he poked
a stick into it, and this, when with
drawn, was covered with honey.
Hayes plugged the hole and rolled the
barrel out into the yard. When the
bees were thoroughly chilled he
knocked in the barrel head and found
250 pounds of honey. The honey has a
cider flavor.

Clothes and Furnishings for Men
and Boys

least degree gathered The center OF
the back will be perfectly fiat from
the cloth collar to the vent, but at
each side there will be just a small
fold which will give an easy and
comfortable look to the garment.
This new type Of overcoat will be
considered entirely correct for both
day and evening wear, although it
will in no wise discredit the special
black evening suit top coats or Ches-
terfeld or cape paletot shape. The
newest model in motoring coats,
whether Of clot', or fur, is SO cut that
the whole weight Of the garment
does not fall from the shoulders and
the insertion of additional width at
the waist seams permits the skirt por-
ton to fall freely over the legs when
the wearer is sittino In his car. The
cuffs are OF military great coat cut
and when so wide that when drivingl
in the face OF a biting wind, they
may be pulled over the hands.
Excepting for evening wear shirts
of stiff or finely tucked white linen
or pique with attached cuffs, have
entirely disappeared in favor OF soft
colored shirts OF light flannel, wool
mixture, heavy linen and madras
which combine beauty with luxurious
comfort. The Russian patterns in
blues and browns with narraw white
stripes are considered ultra-smart and
with these are to be worn both the
turn-down or close front white linen
stiff collar.
The latest tie for the young man
and half grown boy is the Roman
striped silk known as the college
tie. This pattern Is In alternating
quarter inch stripes Of brilliantly con-
trasting colors running transversely
across the tie. With the exception
Of the Roman striped tie, solid colors
are apparently to prevail against fan
cy designs and everything in the line
OF neckwear Is of the four-in-hanc
order with the exception Of the bow
