A draft for an ordinance covering
the matter of paying the interest on

who, with Contractor VanDiest, was
present.
This ordinance, if approved by the
town attorney and the trsstees, will
be regularly passed.
After the mayor he'd gone the
rounds of the trustees asking for ex-
pressions of opinion, John E Whip,
who was in the audience, asked the
mayor if the money TO be raised from
the bond issue was to be for q water
plant strictly.
The mayor explained that il vas
to be expended in construction of a

PERKINS TO Be CALLED
Will Be Asked to Tell Of Cam
paign Contributions.

Washington, Aug. 15.-The Senate
committee investigating campaign eX-
penditures Will request George w. Per-
kins, of New York, to testify about his
contributions 10 the Presidential cam
paign funds OF 1904 and 1908. Whether
Mr.. Perkins will be called to Washing
ton immediately depends on the plans
for the adjournment of Congress.
II is understood Mr.. Perkins has been
asked informally to appear and has sig
nifed his willingness to do so whenever
desired.
Only the Republican members Of the
committee are now in the city, and they
are loath to continue the inquiry without
the aid of the Democratic members. Sen
ator Lea Is in Colorado, on account Of thc
illness of his wife, and Senator Paynter
the other Democratic member, also is out
of town. Unless one or the other returns
it is probable that Chairman Clapp will
not call more witnesses 10 Washington
during the present session.

FUR SEALING BILL PASSED
Senate Votes for Closed Season
of Ten Years.
TFrom The Tribune Bureau.


Washington, Aug. l5-In the face OF the
protests of Senator Root and others that
IL was violating the treaty signed by the
United States, Great Britain, Russia and
Japan. the Senate to-day adopted, BY a
vote Of 42 to Is. the amendment of the
Senate committee 10 the fur sealing bill
providing for a closed season of ten years.
Sepator Dillingham; proposed COM
promise reducing the closed season to five
years. This was rejected by a vote Of z
to g. Although there was NOT = strict
partisan lineup on the measure, the vote
for a closed season Of ten years was cast
largely by Democrats and insurgent Re
publican6.
Senator Root said that the United
States could not maintain its national
self-respect II 1t assumed TO stop all kill
ing of seals for ten years. Senator Dill
lingham also sought in vain TO persuade
his colleagues 10 rcfrai nfrom taking any
action which might prevent the accom-
plishment u the purpose of the conven-
ton between the four nations-that Is,
the prohibition of pelagic sealing.
The measure will be sent TO the House,
where it Is expected q compromise pro-
vision for closed season Of five years
will be agreed upon. Even if this is not
done, It is predicted, the prevention of
pelaFc sealing, for which the United
States has been struggling for many
years, may be defeated. Great Britain,
Russia and Japan have the right to abb
rogate the treaty at any time, and they
may do so II Congress takes this action
and the President approves it.
