 The administration forces, headed by President James M. Lynch, who |who is accused by his opponents Of dominating the union, won by a vote Iof 113 to 102.
 The vote was on law committee substitute to appeal by Koop to amend the constitution making the holding |of secret sessions to influence legis- lation punishable by removal from office. The committee substitute leaves the matter to the local unions. The vote was taken after three hours |of debate, termed by old members the bitterest ever heard in conven. tion of the union.
 Koop gave an account of the meet l ing purported to have been held by the members of the administration faction and in long address he de nounced what he termed the domina' ton of the union by secret ring and offered his proposed amendment Koop was supported by James H Dahn of New York; L%on H.

Chicago, Aug. is.-An appeal to

 day. Suit was filed by the Wright

 J. N. Miller, counsel for the Aero Club of America. is here and 1t was said that organization would defend the suit. Harold F.

Beachey flirted with death again in his flight today and was forced to make another spectacular descent from which even his brother avia-
 tors scavcely expected him to es- lcape alive. When about 1000 feet \ high his engine ran out of gasoline. A stream of smoke could be seen stretching behind the aeroplane and lit was at first thought the machine was on fire. He reached the earth by steep glide which threatened to dash him to pieces.
 He brought the machine to stand still and escaped unshaken.

Washington. D. C., Aug. IT, A shrewd move by the regular repubIa cans. as unexpected as 1t was effect i've, today suddenly threw the demo. crats into complete control of the senate in their own right and forced them absolutely to abandon their goar ition with the progressive republi- cans.
 Out of the chaos and the uproar came a bill to revise the cotton schde- ule of the Payne Aldrich tariff law. 1t was the bill as passed by the house but saddled with amendments to re- wise the iron and steel, the cotton. machinery and chemical schedules or the tariff law, coupled with a pro vision for reciprocal free trade in bit luminous coal acrlss the Canadian border.
 Democratic votes alone we're cast in favor of the bill. The regular re- publicans deliberately absented them selves from the chamber and thus left their progressive colleagues in q hopeless position. The insurgents. taken completely by surpfIss, were thrown into rage. Alternately they denounced what they termed nn< treachery of the democrats with whom they had been in alliance and in veigned against the regular repub- licans for the part they had played in the new combination which had brought about a revolution in the senate as startling and sensational at the coalition which earlier had rob- bed the regular republicans of theii supremacy Tn the upper house.
 In vain the insurgents invoked the |all forgotten rules of the senate tc compel the regulars to attend and cast their votes.
 The senate custom so long revereo and jealously defended was tossed tc the winds. The insurgents charged the democrats had broken faith al- though in caucus last nignt the latter had determined to carry through ar |insurgent-democratic program on the cotton bill which would have incIudec the adoption of La Toilette substi- ltute for the measure. They insisted the democrats had entered into ar agreement or understanding With tae |regulars to leave the progressives IT | the lurth.
