IN SENATE
HAVE LITTLE HOPE
OF EARLY CLOSING
Too Many. Matters to Be
Considered to Adjourn
by June Is.

Senate leaders are not banking much
on the prospects OF an early adjourn
ment of the session. in spite Of the fact
the House Democratic leaders have held
a conference and have agreed to pro-
gram that contemplates closing the ses-
sion, June 15
The House leaders acted without ref
erence to the Senate situation. They
took the view that II the House put an
early adjournment program up to the
Senate that body might feel constrained
to end the session earlier than 1t would
otherwise.
The action Of the House leaders was
taken in the belief, IL not the hope, that
the Senate would do nothing on tariff.
Many of the House Democrats want the
tariff record to stand. as II is through
the campaign and are not anxious to see
any tariff legislation passed before cleo
ton.
Senator Penrose and other Senate
leaders conferred in an informal way
over adjournment yesterday afternoon,
when they learned what the House lead
ers had done. No agreement was
| reached. It was decided the matter
should rest until the Finance Committee
| meets Thursday. At that meeting ef-
forts will be made to get reports on
] the chemical bill and on the excise bill,
4 A substitute for the wool bill may be
! decided on, though probably not at the
meeting tomorrow.

NEW YORK. May 15.-After
sharp upward turn at the opening
the stock market met large volume
of stock selling this morning which
carried prices down from one to two
points and left prices In somewhat
weakened condition. Trading was

been booming LehiEh, Reading, Can

again in evidence. though today they
were unwilling or unable to take over
the volume of stock offered at the
high level Of the opening.
Market news showed little change.
Failure of the miners convention to
arrive at an agreement yesterday on
the compromise propositions to set
tie the anthracite labor troubles

vention will not accede to the report
of the committee and that further
conferences will be required. Pollti.
cal news was about as expected, but
many traders affected to find dts-

there yesterday was perhaps one of
the factors working to decline In
prices in the early trading today.

BURKE FOR CABINET.
N. D. Governor In Line for ONCE q
Secretary Of interior.

Fargo, N. D., Nov. 6.-The election
Of Wilson as president Of the United
States is generally thought in North
Dakota to mean the selection Of .
Democratic governor and Burke a.
secretary Of the interior. Burke was
three times elected governor Of North
Dakota despite an overwhelming vic
tory Of the Republicans for the rest
Of the state Offices.
He was doomed for the presidency
early last summer and given the del.
egation from this state to place him
in a position for the vice presiden.
tial nomination. At Baltimore the
exigencies Of the occasion were such
that it was deemed best to name Mar.
shall for Wilson's running mate, but
an understanding was reported to
have been reached at that time BY
which Burke would be named for Z
cabinet position, preferably secretary
Of the interior. This position is Of
more interest 10 Western people than
any other place in the cabinet and
Burke is regarded as better fitted
for it than for any OF the other places.
