There are six proposed consti-
tutional amendments in the Sen
ate. and an equal number in the
House, but neither body has yet
passed resolution for the sub
mission of any one. The latest
to be offered is a resolution by
Senator Holt submitting to the
people the question of fran.
chise tax, after the withdrawal of
a bill he had introduced provid
ing for the same. The purpose
of the amendment is to reach a
condition which, it is agreed,
could not be remedied by statute
None of the proposed amend
ments has yet been fought out
on the floor. and the work is pill
ing up on the committee that
has them in charge.
The first of the bills for the
support of the state institutions
was introduced Wednesday af
ternoon by Senator Oldham,
being a bill for $4,000 for the
Deaf Mute Institute. The total
amount appropriated in 1909 was
1882, 7l6, of which S52,570 was
vetoed by the governor, and of
the remainder $35, 900 was saved
by the Board, leaving the total
amount used in the maintenance
of the school for the biennial per-
iod S94, 146 During the past
two years the average has been
226 pupils in attendance, and at
the rate of $500 per pupil, an APP
preparation of $4,000 would be
required for the next two years
on an estimate of 400 pupils in
the state.

DEMOCRATS IN SUPPORT

Washington, Feb 16.-The Canadian
the house is under consideration by
the senate committee on foreign rela-
tions.
The committee will review the
agreement solely as to whether it
conflicts with any existing treaty.
Finding that it does not, the agree.
ment will be returned to the senate
and sent to the committee on finance,
The house of representatives passed
the bill ratifying the reciprocity
agreement by an almost unanimous
Democratic support. The vote, 221 to
90. only five Democrats-Broussar
Estoplnal and Pujo of Louisiana,
Hammond of Minnesota and Webb OF
North Carolina-being against it.
The 81 Republicans voting against
the bill were in the proportion of APP
proximately two regulars to one in
surgent, although the insurgents were
almost solidly against the agree
ment. This is based upon the fact
that practically all of the present pro-
gresslve branch of the Republican,
party in congress comes from that
section of the United States mostly
affected by the reduction of dutie.

The house voted under a resolution
brought in from the committee on

by its opponents the last word In
offensive tactics, provided that, the
general debate. being ended, the house
should consider the bill as read a sec

Gardner Shouts Gag Rule"
An effort to Jam the bill through
under this resolution was hindered
but not blocked, by Representative
Gardner of Massachusetts,. who de
manded the right to 20 minutes of de
bate upon 1t. After consultation,
Speaker Cannon announced that Gard
ner was within his rights. This fur
nished chance to assail the Demo
Gratis. aud his high-pitched voice rose
above the general din like blast
from trombone.

rule! The worst and most drastic eff
fort | have ever noted in all my life
in congress. and coming from the
PARTY which proclaimed in the recent
campaisn that one of its reasons for
having earned the appreciation of the
nation was its work in liberalizing
the rules OF the house, You are Civ
inc us a foretaste Of what we may ex-
pect after the Attn of March.
Gardner was supported by Pickett,
insurgent Republican of Iowa, and
Broussard, Democrat of Louisiana,
Committee 10 to Against.
As now lined up, the senate finance
committee stands for and 10 against
the agreement. The four favorable
ones are Senators Penrose and Lodge,
RepubH ans, and Money and Stone
Democrats. The ten opponents are
Senators Aldrieh. Burrows, Hale, Gull
len. McCumber, Smoot and Flint, Re
publicans, and Bailey, Simmons and
Taliaferro, Democrats. Despite this
gloomy outlook the friends of reciproc'
itv hope that with the insistence of
President Taft the agreement will be
reported to the senate.
The Democrats, who must largely
assist administration regulars II the
agreement is to be approved, have
not vet determined upon any SPECIFIC
line of party action.

and Motor Boat Club at largely at
tended and enthusiastic meeting held
last night at the club house, The new

ness men and enthusiastic over the

go to a point on the eastern shore of
Escambia Bay opposite Magnolia Bluff
and near Point Garcon, where a chow
der will be served and the day spent.
A committee was appointed to get
buoys and stake off the racing course
recently adopted by the club, and II

discussed inviting boats from other
clubs to come here and enter another
regatta to be given in the near future

crossing nicely, so that within very
short time the boats can come right
up 10 the club house. The wharf will
also add much TO the appearance OF
the club house.

New York, Sept. 6.-The cotton market
opened steady with prices to points

worms and boil weevil are said to have

to last nights prices and maintained a
steady undertone throughout the first
hour. e..
During the late forenoon the market
was very nervous owing to continued
bullish crop advices from the south, which
checked any aggressive bear selling here.
Prices held up within a few points of
the best of the morning, or about 6
points above yesterdays close, but trade
was rather quiet pending more definite
news from the belt. There was some

TESTING BIG

ONE OF THE JOINTS STOOD A
PRESSURE OF OVER TWENTY
THOUSAND POUNDS AND ONLY
SHOWED A SMALL CRACK.

A test, which vii lbe finished today,
was started yesterday morning by Cur

certain what pressure the reinforced
concrete sewer pipe would stand, with
the result that late in the afternoon
over 10000 pounds had been piled on
the joint, and 1t showed only a small

about an inch. The contractors will
continue piling on pig iron today so
as to determine what pressure the pipe
will stand.
The joint being tested is the same
as those which are daily seen on East

in the storm water drains now being
placed. It has a thickness of over six
inches, and weighs over 5000 pounds,
being the largest to be used in the
