SENATE To
RUSH BILLS
S0LONS ARE ANXIOUS TO AID.
JOURN--TO VOTE ON DIRECT
ELECTION OF SENATORS
FREE LIST Will FAIL

Washington, D. c., May 11-Anxious
for an early adjournment, RepuDli-
can Senate leaders haYe begun to
plan to expedite business in the
Senate
The way that hearings on the Ca
madam reciprocity bill are being
rushed by the Finance Committee
shows that the leaders hope that a
report will be made on the bill late
next week, or possibly the week fol-
lowing
Senator Penrose, chairman of the
committee, has expressed desire
that the committee act as promptly
as possible.
There are indications that the reci-
procity bill, if brought to a vote at
any time in the near future, will have
from ten to fifteen majority in the
Senate.
There is no disposition to prevent
vote on the resolution passed by
the House providing for the direct
election of Senators. 1t is predicted
by some of the Senate leaders that
an agreement would be reached for a
vote On the resolution early in June.
There is every Indication that the
resolution will pass the House, but
there is a possibility that it will be
amended by the addition of Senator
Suthe4land's amendment, which was
added to the same resolution when
it came up in the regular session Of
Congress and which led to it's defeat.
There seems to be little doubt as to
the fate of the free list bill passed
by the House Monday, which came to
the Senate Monday and was refer
red to the Finance Committee 1t is
expected that this bill will slumber
peacefully in the committee and that
way the possibility of a prolonged de-
bate in the Senate on the general
subject of tariff revision will be
averted. This, too, will save much
time, and enable adjournment to be
had early.

"champagne" Manufactured by False
Means Where Real Vintages Grow.
Paris, May 11.-One effect of the
disturbances in the champagne dis
trict has been to throw light on the
methods of certain manufacturers Of
champagne. One manufacturer was
found to be selling at least ten brands
although all the land he possessed in
the Marne department was that on
which his works were built. His
highest priced brand was supposed to
be from the vineyards of the Count
de Groseille. The champagne dealer
paid him a lump sum for the use Of
his name and pays him a percentage
on every bottle sold and double rates
if the count himself obtains the or
der
Modern science does wonders in
the way of making champagne It
takes very little wine at all, exhausts
it's fermentation, adds certain
amount Of sugar, certain quantity
Of vinous yeast containing fermenti-
BILE germs, and poerating at a certain
temperature, at any time Of the year,
it makes as fizzy a wine as any cham
pagne, and it requires only two
months to do what the old system did
in fourteen.
No one with a palate will say the
wine thus artifcially prepared has
the flavor and bouquet and the body
that mark the genuine product, but
the eye is pleased with the gold foil
and the ear with the sudden pop OF
| the cork.
| If the champagne workers succeed
! in killing cheap champagne nothing
will be left but few big houses
manufacturing the true champagne in
the true way, and they will enjoy a
| monopoly and will be able to sell
champagne at any price they like

Ratification by 62nd Congress Assured
National Election Date May Be
Changed, Also.

Washington, May IA change Of
the date of the Inauguration of the
President is assured of ratification
by the Sixty-Second Congress, and
it is not improbable that similar ac-
ton will be taken to change the date
of holding the national elections. This
assurance has been given by two
thirds majority of both houses of Con
gress to Representative Henry, OF
Texas, chairman of the House Com
mittee on Rules, who introduced re
Gently a joint resolution providing
for the submission of this proposal
to the Legislatures of the States.
The proposed amendment of the
constitution of the United States
changes the date of Inauguration from
March 4th, usually an inclement day
in Washington, to Thursday in April.
The date of holding national elections
would be changed from first Tuesday
in November to the first Tuesday in
April preceding the expiration of the

Recognition Not Yet Probable
Indications are that such a request
will not be granted, for the present at
least. There is this serious objection
to doing so; by that act the Diaz gov
ernment would be relieved of all pc
cuniary responsibility for any damage
inflicted upon Americans by the
rebel operations. The large American
business interests in Mexico which
have suffered severely by the insur
rection would raise a strong protest
against the adoption of course that
would prevent them from securing
reimburs for their losses
Another consideration is that il
would oblige the government to treat
the Diaz government precisely as il
| does the rebels, in the matter of de
nying them the right to import arms
and munitions of war, and would sub
ject American goods entering Mexico
