There are many busy days ahead for
Granville NJ. Hunt, chairman of the con-
yentions committee of tie Chamber of
Commerce, as the result of the launch
ing of the plan by which Washington's
Quota of the money needed to erect the
George Washington Memorial Building

Members of a number of Washington
organizations, civic, fraternal, and pa
triotic, are anxious to learn more about
the project and several have asked Mr..

Hunt several days ago before the Re-
tail Grocers' Protective Association at
old Masonic Temple.
On Thursday night Mr.. Hunt will ad-
dress the Society of Daughters of Amer
lea, at the rooms of Victory Council.

FREE LIST BILL
Is BEFORE HOUSE
General Debate Expected to
Last a Week or More.

Just before the House adjourned at 4
o'clock yesterday afternoon, after trans
acting routine business in connection
with the organization of committees,
Representative Underwood. of Alabama.
the majority floor leader and Ways and
Means chairman. laid before the body
the farmers free list bill, which was the
next thing on the Democratic programme.
He asked that general debate be begun
promptly today, and that he and Rep
resentative Dalzell, of Pennsylvania, be
permitted to control the time for their
respective sides. This was agreed upon.
Some one asked Mr.. Underwood how
long he thought the debate would run.
He replied that he did not see how it
could be concluded within four or five
days. judging by the requests he had re-
ceived from members for time. Later
he said he wouldn't be surprised If the
talk would run for two weeks.
The Democratic economy programme
hasn't yet been extended to include the
mileage proposition. Members still re-
ceive 20 cents a mile as travelling ex-
penses. and efforts to reduce this amount
to Is cents, to 10 cents, and TO 5 cents
have invariably been unsuccessful.
Yesterday Representative Fitzgerald, of
New York, reported the usual mileage
bill, making the travelling expense money
Immediately available. Representative
Cox, of Indiana, endeavored to tack on
an amendment providing that a member
should receive 10 cents a mile as travel
ing expenses while on his way to attend
a session. and 5 cents a mile while on
his way back home. Mr.. Fitzgerald made
point of order against the amendment,
which was sustained by Speaker Clark.

Annapolis. Md. April 24.-Although the
search of the waters of Spa Greek was
continued increasingly, and with re-
doubled efforts. from daybreak to dark
ness to-day, it revealed nothing of the
body Of Miss Shores, who with her sister,
Mrs. Dora White. disappeared on the
night of April ).
The funeral of Mrs. White. whose body
was found yesterday. took place from
her late residence in West street to-day.
The mystery has bafied the authorities.
States Attorney Nicholas H. Green
stated to-day that a thorough investi-
CATION is being pursued in response to
public feeling to ascertain If possible
anything tending to show that the two
sisters were murdered. An autopsy was
performed on the body of Mrs. White,
and the lungs. stomach, and kidneys were
sent to Baltimore for an expert analysis
at the hands of DR.. Penniman, State
chemist.
The result of this examination has not
been divulged nor will it be until the
coroner's inquest meets tomorrow, to
hear testimony and frame its verdict.
Just what information has been un-
covered, as the result of the investigation
thus far, is not known, as all OF the
officials are bound by secrecy.

ELIOT DEPLORES PLAN
FOR WOMEN TEACHERS
Disastrous Effect of Increasing Pay of Fair Instructors
Seen by Former Harvard Head.

New York. April An reply to an in
vitation to lecture here on the PROPOSE
ton of providing equal pay" for women
teachers by reducing the pay of the men,
former President Charles w. Eliot, OF
Harvard, has sent this letter TO Joseph
X Van Denburg, of this city:
Il have never seen a similar PROPOSE
ton concerning the right conduct of i
system of public instruction than the
following sentence: The sex of the
teacher is of absolutely no importance
in education. 1t is a perfectly clear
result Of much experience that men make
better teachers for boys over twelve
than women do.
You tell me that the board of educa-
tion for New York is planning to reduce
the salaries of men hereafter to be en-
ployed as teachers. a more destructive
policy could hardly be imagined. The

American public schools have already
much too large a proportion OF women
teachers. To lower the salaries of the
men will in the long run have the effect
of diminishing the number of men or
reducing their quality or both
There are two sound reasons for pay
ing the women teachers in the public
schools at lower rates than men. First,
with rare exceptions, they do not and
cannot do the same work; and secondly,
teaching as a temporary occupation Of
the young women is more desirable
among the occupations open to women
than 1t is for young men among the oc-
cupations open to men. Hence, the sup
ply of women is larger than that of men
for teachers places.
The New York board of education
plan on the salary question seems to me
nothing short Of disastrous, not only for
New York schools, but by force of New
York example for all the schools of the
country

GEORGETOWN VS.. VIRGINIA.
Old Rivals Clash on the Charlottes.
Vile Diamond To-day.

This morning at 9 o'clock the baseball
team of Georgetown University will leave
for Charlottesville to battle with the
Virginia contingent. This marks the be-
ginning of the annual series of battles
for the supremacy between the two insti-
tutions on the diamond.
Since the gridiron honors went to
Georgetown this year the Virginians are
especially anxious to retrieve themselves
in the other major branch of sport. De-
fensively Georgetown seems to excel,
while her offensive work will doubtlessly
prove to be of more formidable caliber
than that of any of the aggregations
which have opposed Virginia's star,
Rixey, who is slated to twirl for the
Orange and Blue to-day.
