cratic side, he reminded Senators that
rubber tires paid the same duty under
the Canadian agreement that they did
under the Payne-Aldrich law. He said
that rubber tires were the product of a
trust absolutely.
IF Senators don't want to go on record
on this question, they may take the re-
sponsibility," snapped Mr.. Bristow.
''Oh, there will be an opportunity to
go on record on this question" shouted
back Senator Stone.
The next roll call was on the question
of free lumber. The amendment COM
manded only twelve votes, with fifty-one
in opposition. The twelve votes were sup
piled by ten insurgents and two Demo-
Gratis. Senator Brown, of Nebraska,
voted with Senator Cummins to remove
the duty on lumber The two Democratic
votes were supplied by Senators Bailey
and Simmons.
Mr.. BaiIey's Following.
As the vote progressed Mr.. Bailey trav-
eled from one Democratic seat to another
delivering lectures to his Democratic COL
leagues on their perverseness in voting
down tariff amendments. The Senator
from Texas was manifestly stirred up
over the situation. His following in the
Senate had been reduced to one man-Mr
Simmons. Saturday there was a dispo-
sition among some Of the Democrats to
refer jocosely to Senator Bailey and his
army of two-Thornton and Simmons-as
the three musketeers." But yesterday
when Senator Thornton refused to play
any longer, the army was reduced to two
o'clock and the last roll calls were
had while a majority of the Senators
were out on the front steps of the main
Senate entrance watching an aeroplane
sailing around 1000 feet above the
Capitol dome. Senator Simmons two
amendments, putting -four and fresh
meat on the free list, were voted down
without the formality of roll call. The
result of the voting yesterday simply
strengthens the treaty and has demon
strated to the insurgents the hopeless
ness of their fight. The opposition to
the treaty is clearly .disheartened.
Oscar Underwood, the Democratic
House leader, said last night that the
House was exceedingly anxious to ad-
journ, and that if the Senate would cut
short the debate and begin voting he be-
lieved it would be possible to get away
by August l.
Mr.. Underwood intimated that the
House might even be willing to compro-
mise on the bills now before the Senate
if vote could be secured on these. This
would mean action of some kind on the
farmers free list bill and the woolen bill,
and letting the bills for the revision of
the cotton schedule and the iron and steel
schedules go over until the regular ses-
sion in December

SMYRNA NEGRO PRISONER
IS GRANTED A PARDON
CLARENCE GIBSON, IMPLICATED
IN ROBBERY OF WEBB'S MILL
So Crippled With rheumatism and
Upon the Advice of Physicians,
State Board Recommends Release.

State Board Recommends Release.
The State Board of pardons met
at Dover Thursday to consider four
cases for pardon all from the New
Castle county workhouse at Green
bank but all three from the lower
counties. The two Kent county
cases were taken up at the morning
session-those of Benjamin F. Reich
ley, the veteran of the Civil War
who barricaded his home and drew
Springfield on the detectives trying
70 arrest him. He is paralyzed
from calculi and physicians aver that
ne will die if not released from
Imprisonment. Clarence Gibson, a
young prisoner, only fifteen when
incarcerated last year, also sent up
from Kent county as one of the
principals in the John Postle gang,
who robbed Frank Webb's mill at
Smyrna. This prisoner contends
that his was only a minor and in
nocent part of the robbery of Webb S
mill. The result of his imprison-
ment it is alleged, is a rheumatic
affection which attacks the powers
of locomotion. If treated at once
and the boy has his freedom, it is
alleged, he will again be able to
walk and intends to leave his old
associations and become a useful
citizen. Pleas of illness and of
fear of death often come to the
Pardons Board, but these seemed we'll
supported by the medical men.
Reichley and Gibson were recon-
mended to the governor for uncon-
ditional pardon. Lawyer w. F.
Adams represented Clarence Gibson
and read the affidavit of L. W.
Crawford, warden of the Greenbank
workhouse, and that of DIR. Samuel
c. Rumford, prison physician
recommending that the boy be liber-
ated as he is rapidly losing the use
of his legs from rheumatism. The
State did not oppose the Gibson
petition on account of the youth of
the boy and that he had suffered se-
verify. He has been at Greenbank
nearly ten months. Rash was
turned down.

ELECTRIC LIGHT METERS
MUST ALL UNDERGO TEST
COUNCIL PURCHASES A METER
TESTER; IN SERVICE THIS WEEK
Electrician From General Electric
Company Expected Any Day to AS
sist in Regulating all Meters

Smyrna Town Council, through it's
Light and Water Co nmittee, H. B.
Grieves, Chairman, has ordered that
all electric light meters undergo
test. During the past year various
discrepancies have appeared and in
order that justice may be dealt all,
Council purchased Standard Electric
Meter Tester to the cost of $50 from
the General Electric Company. The
tester has arrived and any day this
week a representative of the com
pany is expected in Smyrna, who
with Chief Engineer Wilson will
take the tester to the various stores
and dwellings in town and see that
all meters are put to the standard
test. Meters needing attention will
be regulated at once. Generally
speaking, however, Smyrna is still
adopting the ''hat rate" system in
selling its current. A number of
business places have found it more
economical and practicable to install
meters, but in dwellings the fiat
rate system is largely in vogue.
This is probably due to the fact that
the consumer is obliged to pay for
the meter, Council not yet being
ready to shoulder the expense to put
the whole town on a meter basis. At
the meeting Friday night it devel-
oped that a number of lightakers
were using lamps in excess of what
they were paying for and an effort
will be made to inspect all prop
critics on the fiat rate basis as we'll
as meters. The affairs of town,
other than this, were found to be
working satisfactory. The pole
line will be gone over before winter
weather sets in and the flush tanks
will be tested. One on East Mt.
Vernon street in front of the Della
ware House, was discovered to be
out IF commission and has been
ordered put in repair. Chairman
John P. Hudson, of the Street Com
mittee, was not present. but prog
ress was reported in this depart
ment. Council adjourned after al
lowing bills to the amount of
$452. sc. The members present and
completing the quorum were Presi-
dent Reynolds, Secretary Grieves
and Councilmen Wright and Roberts.
