REPORT
ON WOOL BILL
War in senate Prem
isss Long Session.

Washington, June 22.-Senate Dem
ocrats, Republican insurgents and near
insurgents combined and by a vote of
80 to IS passed a motion referring the
Underwood wool revision bill, which
had just come from the house of repre-
sentatives, to the finance committee
to report 1t back to the senate not
later than July 10.
The action of the senate probably
means a general revision of the tariff
with the prospect of the special ses-
sion being prolonged until Oct. l..
The result Of the vote had hardly
been announced when Senator Penrose,
chairman of the finance committee,
had issued a call for a special meeting
of the committee for today. 1t was
said that Chairman Penrose would not
wait until July 10, but would report
to the senate at once and adversely,
not only the Democratic wool revision
bill, but the farmers free list bill,
which also has been passed by the
house. If Senator Penrose succeeds
in carrying out this plan he will
simply forestall the action of the COM
bination now In control of the senate,
which has already planned to force a
report IN the farmers free list bill.

FOSTER TYRRELL HAS
REMeDELED HIS CAR

Perth Amboy has q genius in the
mechanical world in the person of
Foster Tyrrell, the young son of
Assistant Postmaster John H. Tyr
rell, of Market and Rector streets.
Young Tyrrell drives for Adolph
Greenbaum and recently saved his
employers car from destruction by
fire through heroic work.
During the past six months Tyr
reIl has busted himself overhauling
the wreck of his three-passenger
Ford touring car, which colIided
with Edward Smiths car at Bound
Brook last September. Every one
of Fosters many friends "joshed"
him about the damaged a and his
waste of efforts trying to again place
it into some kind of shape. But he
has succeeded.
Most any night you can see him
dashing around Market and Rector
streets with a little low, rakish car
which from all appearances can hold
its own with the pet cars Of the
speed kings" Well, that is the i'll
fated Ford.
There are a few new attachments,
all Fosters home made work, but
the car and engine is practically the
some which met with the collision
some time ago, The improvements
made by the youthful driver bear
witness of his inguenity.
The car was purchased from C. A.
Sexton but has been so overhauled
and cut down that it cannot be rec
ognized as it's former self. The
machine will make about forty-fve
miles an hour, having a twenty-five
horse power engine.
