WORK PlLiNG UP.
Supreme Court Will Have Vas
Amount When Ii convenes in Fall.

Washington. June 1.-Coincident with
the closing of the term of the supreme
court of the United States and the de-
partment of the justices for their sum
mer vacations has been the planning of
an immense amount of work for the
court when it meets again next october.
Thirty-five cases, some of them of far
reaching importance. have been adj
vanced for hearing on the first day of
the next term .or as soon thereafter
as practicable The quoted phrase is
estimated to be equivalent for a month,
for it is said that ii will take at least
that time to hear the arguments in all
these cases.
Among the case advanced are includ-
ed those involving the validity of the
indictment of Charles f. Munday and
others, growing out of the so-called
Stracey coal lands claim in Alaska and
of the Indictment of James "A. Patten
and others ON charges of violating the
Sherman antitrust law in "cornering'
the cotton market. The review OF the
trial of Frederick A. Hyde and others
on charges of land frauds ON the Pa
cafe coast will constitute stili another
prominent case.
In addition to those the court VIII
have under advisement during the sum-
mer about a dozen eases which were
argued during the term just closed but
not decided Probably the most Inn
portant of these is that involving the
constitutionality of the Federal employ
er's liability act of 1903.
According to a summary by Deputy
Clark Maher of the work done by the
court during the term just ended. 5os
cases were filed and 454 disposed or The
latter number included 166 opinions. Dur
| ing the preceding term 503 cases were
| filed and only 1856 cases disposed OF, IN
Guiding l76 opinions.

THE UNDERWOOD BILL
For Wool Tariff Revision Is Endorsed
BY Democratic Caucus.

Washington, June 1.-The proposed
Democratic revision of the wool tar
iff-the Underwood bill-was unani-
mously approved by full Democratic
caucus at midnight, II hours after it
had been made public By the ways
and means committee. It's endorse
ment followed some rapid maneuvring
by the Democratic House leaders who
devised a schedule which effectually
disposed of the opposition by the free
wool advocates.
Through a resolution which leaves
the Democratic party open in the fu-
ture to renew its advocacy of free
trade in raw wool, but which commits
all Democrats to the support of the
present bill. as revenue measure, the
divergent interests were brought to-
gether in the caucus shortly before
midnight and an almost unanimous
agreement was reached.
The final vote on the approval of the
Underwood bin was made unanimous
but the following members were ex-
cused from a pledge to support the
caucus action:
Reps. Rncker. Col; Ashbrook, Fran
els and Sharp. Ohio, and Gray. Ind.
The resolution, agreed on in a con-
ference of the free raw wool advocates
was introduced in the caucus by Rep.
kitchin of North Carolina. who had
advocated free raw wool. His resolli-
ton declared that the support of duty
on raw wool should not be construed
as an abandonment of the Democratic
policy of free wsoi. The need for a

then unanimously adopted by the

duty, they answered these demands by
pointing out the absolute necessity for
small duty on raw wool.
Chairman Underwood gave the COM
pete text of the proposed revision of the
| wool tariff to 200 Democrats who as
sembled in the party caucus at noon
1t proposes duty of 20 per cent on
raw wool, a reduction of more than 50

Disastrous Collision Mar
rowIy Avsried at Boston,
Excursion Boat and Ransom
B. Fuller in Heavy Fog.
Quick Realization and Orders from
Captains Save Passengers.

Boston, June 1.-The story of how a
crash between the Portland steamer
Ransom b. Fuller and the Nantasket
ecursion boat Old Colony was narrow
ly averted in a thick fog that hung
over the lower harbor by the rapid
work of the captains of both vessels
was related along the waterfront this
morning.
The Fuller was outward bound last
night when the bow of the Old Colony
suddenly doomed up ahead. Both cap
tains had been echanging whistles.
They realized their peril at the same
moment. The only chance was for the
Old Colony to speed across the port
bow of the large vessel. Her captain
promptly rang for full speed. With the
Fuller slaekening her course by re-
Vcrsing the engines, the Old Colony
lust managed to sweep past without
touching the Maine steamer. There
was much excitement according 10 eye
witnesses. The passengers on both
boats lined the deck rails and peered
anxionsly through the mist until the
possibility Of crash was over,
