IL Mrs. Horton is nominated for the presi-

The chief victory of the day for the
Storyites came when Mrs. Scott asked
that the house act on the disposal of
the new famous repudiated amendments,
which provided for the appointment Of
an executive committee of nine, thus
tacitly admitting that their withdrawal
after protests by the conservatives had
been practically illegal. The finance

ments when The Washington Herald

them, withdrew them several weeks ago.

G. G. Stroop Explains Work
of Reclaiming Swamps.

The Florida Everglades was the subject
of an illustrated lecture delivered by G. G.
Stroop last night in the offices of the
Florida Everglade Land Sales Company,
500 U street northwest.
He explained in detail the reclamation
OF the 100000 acres of swamp land be-
ing carried on by the State of Florida,
and said when completed, together with
the natural advantages of climate and
fertility of soil, this vast tract would be
the most profitable agricultural lands in
the world.
The semi-tropical climate of this region
affords ideal conditions for the growth
of a large variety of rare and valuable
plants and fruits. Among these may be
mentioned the mango, pawpaw. gufva,
kumquat, and citron. Bananas and grape
fruit thrive on the muck soil of this re-
gion
Mr.. Stroop said that the Everglades
are the coming field for sugan-cane pro-
duction. and that 10000 acres would be
sufficient to produce the S157,0OO,000 worth
of sugar that we now import Samples
of all these unusual plants and fruits

CLOSING OF CONGRESS
MARKED BY SENSATIONS

Sensations marked the last sessions of
the congress, chief of which was the
announcement by the victorious Scott
forces that Mrs John Miller Horton re-
gent of the Buffalo Chapter who was
dubbed the traitor to the Story party,
as Mrs. Torbet was called the traitor of
the Scott faction, had been selected to
bear the administrations banner for
president general in 1913.
1t is known-in fact, 1t is an open Sc
cret-that Mrs. Horton has been for
years persona non grata to Mrs. Donald
Mclean. A bitter enmity has arisen be-
tween them over New York matters
That Mrs. Scott would forward Mrs.
Horizons presidential aspirations is taken
as proof that Mrs. Scott and Mrs. Nc
Lean have grave differences OF opinion,
hidden for political purposes during the
sessions of last week. Mrs Mclean has
declared she will not again run for presi-
dent general, declaring "she has had
enough but she is not taken seriously
by the delegates.
May Cause q Split.
1t is absolutely certain, coming from
the highest sources. that the Scott party's
Endorsement of Mrs. Horton will lead to
a serious split in the McLean-Scott ranks,
and there will in all probability be three
candidates in 1s1s-Mrs. Story. the logical
candidate so-called. and Mrs. Mclean and
Mrs. Horton.
By nominating Mrs. Horton and indors-
ing her, the Scott party foresees a spit
in the New York delegation, and believe
Mrs. Storyis chances will be weakened
accordingly. For the first time during the
congress. Mrs. Horton was invited 70
