HEAR THE FOOT. FOOT. FOOT?
BROADWAY CARS COMING

NEW YORK Special.-With whis-
ties screaming at either end the
Steepless, loW-leVol pay-as-yOu- enter.
double-ueck street car made its first
appearance Wednesday on Broadway.
From distance il looked like a
huge delivery wagon. but as il draws
nearer YOU are certain il is big cage.
The entire upper body of the car
and part of the lower 80 covered with
steel netting tor prevent passengers
taking headers to the pavement.
Rubber-matted steps at each end Of
the car lead TO the upper deck. The
roof there is so low that persons Of
ordinary height must stOop or bump
their hea0s. Tall persons climbing to
the upper floor must do a Grecian
bend or hit "A steel beam with their
fOreheads.
The car has an automatic cash reg
lister recording a fare as ii is dropped
in the box.
While more passengers can he car
ried in a double-decker the passengers
on the upper floor cannot he ais
charged as quickly as those i'm an
ordinary car. The stairways only hold
one passenger at a time, and if sew
eral persons wished to get of at a
corner the wait would he long.
The cars shrill whistles will let per-
sons a mile away know it is coming
Even if Broadway desired sleep these
whistles would prevent il.

FUNERAL OF STATE FOR
DOG OF JOHN w. GATES

NEW YORK Special Lying in
state in the garage of his late owner
at 1O5 East Seventy-fourth Street is
Blondy, the pet dog OF John w. Gates.
which survived the financier and
plunger by almost a year. The dog
died on Sunday. in The Hotel Plaza.
where his master during his lifetime
paid $4,000 for a suite.
The dog, a small Boston bulldog. is
IN no common soap box. He is in a
coffin, made of the best quality plush
and lined with white silk. About his
neck is gold collar with gold bells,
especially made for him in Paris
About the coffin are flowers placed
there by the employees and relatives of
the Gates family. which now is in the
West. There is a splendid pillow of
flowers.
That the dog. of which John w.
Gates thought so much he had an oil
painting done of him may not quickly
pass into earth and dust, he has been
embalmed. The work was done by
DR.. Louis Griessman, a veterinary, Of
1O49 Lexington Avenue.
After conference among the Gates
employees it was decided il would not
be possible to keep the dog unburied
until John w. Gates son, Charles G.
Gates, and Mrs. Gates return from the
West. So 1t has been decided to bury
Blondy on the estate Of a friend of
the family at Scarsdal{ When the
Gates family returns Blondy will be
dug up and taken to the Gates estate

HOUSE MEMBERS FORM
PLAN OF ACTION

WASHINGTON, ID. c. Special.
A plan of campaign was evolved
by members of the House early
today 10 put the question of adj
tournInent squarely up TO the
Senate.
This scheme includes, il is said,
an agreement by House members
that after today no question of "A
quorum shall be raised, and that
"A speaker pro tempore shall be
designated to call the House TO
order once every two or three
days, permitting most of the
members TO leave and 20 conduct
business along this line until the
Senate gets tired of staying here.
This plan is being unOficiaIIy
circulated among the members of
the Senate. Today the Senators
from Virginia, Oregon, Maryland
and Texas appeared TO be just as
firm in their determination to
fight adjournment until the
claims OF their States are restored
to the general deficiency bill as
they were Saturday night.
Senator's La Toilette and Pen
rose were prepared to stand by
their fight for the resolution pro-
vtding for a probe into campaign
matters involving Theodore
Roosevelt and the Standard Oil
Company.
