TO leave oneself behind is perhaps

says Harpera Bazaar. AS one steps
on the train or goes up the gang

that the spirit often hindereth itself.
Fresh fields and pastures new, head

now heart as readily as conversion.
Care is shifted from the shoulders;
the back is turned upon teasing, re-

she moved with her son, Oscar. to High

But II was always the same. Those
who knew her say that with blind terror

1t is thought that her mind became
unbalanced through the great grief and

course of conduct that appears to the
chairman to be contumacious and In
absolute and utter contempt of this
committee. For that reason I would
suggest to the gentleman that unless
he shows disposition to answer these
questions the committee will be con-
strained to report to the House, with
the recommendation that he be cited
for contempt"
Counsel Lindabury again advised the
witness to refuse to answer the ques-
tion put by Mr.. Beall. Mr.. Lindabury
repeated that 1t was his opinion that
the information sought did not come
within the scope of the investigation.
Representative McGillicuddy, of Maine,
a Democratic member of the committee,
read the resolution authorizing the in
vestigation, which set forth that the
committee should inquire into the rela-
tions of the steel corporation with in
surance companies, and all other corpor-
ations, in fact.
IF you properly interpret this resolu-
ton, You could bring every corporation
of America in the scope of this investi-
gation,'' suggested Mr.. Lindabury. =

cuddy.

At this point Mr.. Lindabury made a
statement in which he said that the in
formation sought was contained in part
in the records OF the New York Life
Insurance Company. IF you think you
have the authority to gain in that direc-
tion,' he said, why not seek 1t there.
1t is my opinion that questions pertain
ing to the activities of that company
should not be embraced in an investiga-
tion into the operations Of the steel
corporation.
After further controversy between
members of the committee and Mr.. Per-
kins, Chairman Stanley asked the wit

Special to The Washington Herald
Upper Marlboro. Nd, Aug. S.-State
Senator Blair Lee addressed a large
gathering of Democratic voters in the
here at noon to-day. Many
ladies were present. Senator Lee spoke
for nearly an hour, referring TO the di-
rect primary law and other measures
which had his support at Annapolis.
He expressed his appreciation of the
sacrifice Gov. Crothers had made in
Withdrawing from the race, and acknowl-
edged his gratitude for the tender Of
the governors support of his candidacy.
One Of the features Of the meeting
was the reading by Chairman William F.
Holmead, president of the board of
county commissioners, of a telegram
from State Senator Charles A. Wells, of
Hyattsville, leader of the regular forces
in Prince George County, in which the
senator stated that he rejoiced in the
fact that Gov. Crothers' withdrawal af-
forded Senator Lee an opportunity to
lead the people to great victory, and
pledged his heartiest support to the
cause.
Robert w. Wells followed in a force
full speech in behalf of the Lee candi-
dacv. which was enthusiastically re-
ceiyed. A significant feature of the
eubernatorial contest in Prince George
County is the support being given Sena-
tor Lee by william F. Holmead, a prom
ineut member of the anti-organization
forces He is carrying many voters OF
this faction with him.

Three Brothers Attacked by Gang
and Fatal Shooting Follows.
Given Old Battle Flag-Escaped
Convict Is Recaptured.

Alexandra. Va, Aug. s.-Howard
Fuller, negro, was shot and instantly
killed, and his brothers, Henry and
James, were seriously wounded late last
night by a gang OF negroes at Mount
Pleasant, near Lincolnia, in Fairfax Coun-
ty The three brothers were going home
when they were overtaken by wagon
in which were seated six negroes, who
had been attending dance near by, and
became involved in an alteration. Just
what caused the trouble is not clear. but
il terminated in the shooting of all three
brothers. their assailants making tnelr
escape.
Late this afternoon Sheriff Allison was
given a list of the names of the men
believed to be on the wagon. and 1t Is
expected that an arrest will follow
shortly.
At last nights meeting OF r. E. Lee
Camp of Confederate Veterans a COM
mittee was designated to make arrange
ments for the formal presentation to
the camp of the battle flag captured from
them at Sharpsburg, Md, by New

entation is left with the committee,
but 1t will probably be held next month

forts the return of the flag was effected,

At a meeting OF Standardized
Lodge, No. p, I. o. o. F., an interest
ing address was delivered by Mrs. Frank
Neye, district deputy president of the
order, and a member of Naomi Lodge Of
Baltimore.
The nerve Of William Phillips. who
yesterday escaped from the District
workhouse at Occoquan, is responsible
for his arrest to-day, and his conse-
quent return to that institution. He
walked boldly past the police station this
morning, and stopped in barroom Few
doors away. Policeman Gill, however,
who was doing desk duty at the station.
happened to observe him, and seeing that
he tailed with the description sent out
by the Occoquan authorities. followed
Phillips and placed him under arrest.
Phillips was given a sentence of six
months In the Washington Police Court
July 3, and now very much regrets his
temerity. He insists, however, that it
is an easy matter for any one so dis
posed to make his getaway" from the
penal institution.
John Lewis, colored, was arrested this
afternoon by officers Bell and Nowland,
charged with the theft of pair Of shoes
from Fritz Book, an employe OF the
brewery. That Lewis had satisfactorily
solved the question Of getting No. IL
foot in a No. shoe was evidenced by
the fact that he wore the footgear when
arrested. OF course. Mr. Book would
not have objected had they not been per-
fectly good, brand-new shoes. Lewis

ADJOURNMENT MAY
COME IN A WEEK
Compromise Wool Bill Only
Delay Now in Sight.

A more hopeful view OF the outlook
for tariff legislation and for an adjourn
ment of Congress was taken yesterday.
as the result of an interchange of views
between Senator La Toilette. represent
ing the Senate conferees, and Repre-
sentative Underwood. who is acting for
the House in the subcommittee that is
irving to work out a compromise wool
bill.
The House Democratic leaders were
predicting that an agreement would he
reached before the end of this week, and
some of them were fixing the date oil
adjournment as early as next Tuesday.
Senator Penrose. chairman of the Finance
Committee, fixed the date OF ADJOURN
ment as Saturday, August l9.
The Finance Committee will meet this
morning in executive session and report
the Underwood cotton bill adversely, and
when the Senate meets to-day IT Will
probably be made the unfinished busl-
ness ami kept constantly before the SEN
ate until disposed of, or until ongress
adiourns There was a quiet morning
canvass made of the Senate 10 ascer-
tain If an agreement could be reached by
which a date could be fixed for vote
on the bill by unanimous consent but
there was much opposition to this pro-
posal.
The Senate leaders probably will in
sist on holding long sessions, and prob
ably will impose night sessions and Will
insist upon a vote on the bill or unin-
terrupted debate. Senator La Toilette
was noncommttal after his talk with
Representative Underwood. He showed
no disposition to concede anything from
the La Toilette bill. Representative Tn
derwood was very optimistic in mis- pre-
dictions of an early agreement after the
conference yesterday.
The House Democrats are getting rest
less and want to adjourn. They were
busy murmuring over the delay. and
threats were uttered that II the con-
ferees did not agree soon they would
make a move to discharge tenn and see
il they could not expedite the business
to the end that an adjournment might
follow.

The future of automobile contests de-
pends upon the result of the meeting of
the manufacturers contest board which
is to be held in Detroit the last of this
week. Views from all present will be
heard upon what is best for the industry
in the line of sporting events. In the
early days of the industry racing was
looked upon as the best method of ex-
plotting the merits of a car. Some man.
ufacturers still believe in 1t, while others
favor endurance contests and hill climbs.
They give as their reason the fact that
private owners do not use their car for
racing, but for touring and endurance
runs ov,r roads which owners use Is the
best method of proving a cars worth. A
third class of manufacturers are not
taking part in contests of any kind, be-
lieving that their cars are already suf-
ficiently well known. 1t is with this class
that the balance of power remains and
what their views publicly expressed will
be promises TO be interesting. However,
no matter how stringent the rules or
what decision Is reached automobile
sporting events will continue to take
place among a few at least.
