Resolution to Adjourn Until November Is Introduced By

 Interests
Special to The JOurnal-Miner)

WASHINGTON, D.

This gave the subject for talk till time to go into executive session for the confirmation of ap- pointments. The senate adjourned.
 The democrats of the senate will hold a caucus Tuesday or Wednesday to consider the wool, cotton and pos siblv other schedules.
 The consents of opinion is that leader Penrose has all the regular re- publieans,. about all regular democrats and also a large number of the insur- gent republicans and democrats lined up to- vote for the Nelson statehood resolution.

Parliament Refuses For First Time to Hear Address of Prime
 Minister
Asquith is Jeered, Hooted And Called Traitor By
 Opposition
By Associated Press.

By Associated Press.
 LONDON, Eng, July 24.-The last act of the parliamentary revolution was ushered in today with a revolu- tionary scene. For the first time in its history, the House of Commons refused to listen to speeches by the Prime Minister. No such hostile passions have been given free reign since the stormy days of the Glad stone home rule bills.
 During three quarters of an hour, Asquith rose at short intervals and read sentence from two manuscripts, only to be overwhelmingly met by jeers, hOOtings and cries among which "traitor' was the most frequent. Finally he abandoned his attempt to speak, crying CT am not going to degrade myself"
 Political hatred engendered by the veto bill made the session the storm jest in the memory of the oldest members. Asquith gave out that his speech was to have been delivered to the papers tonight as to the govern ment's attitude on the parliamentary bill. All conservatives recognize the party is facing an extreme crisis. A week will probably pass before the veto bill will be brought up again in the Commons.
