EXTRA LENGTHY
SESSION IS OVER
House and senate Came TO an Agree
ment and Adjourned Monday
Afternoon

Washington, Aug. 27.-The long ses-
sion Of the Sixty-second Congress
came to an end at 4:3O O'clock yester-
day afternoon, after the Senate had
agreed to recede from the demand that
the House accept the 100000 in state
claims which the Senate sought 10
tack onto the general deficiency bill
and the extra months pay for Sem
ate and House employees which the
Senate had made an amendment to the
same measure. With these objection
able features removed the House ac-
cepted the measure and the last mat
ter before Congress was disposed of.
the Penrose resolution summoning e
Theodore Roosevelt and others before
the Senate committee investigating
campaign contributions, relative to the
Standard Oil Company's alleged Civ
Ing of S125,000 to the republican cam
paign fund in 1904. having been passed
by the Senate earlier in the afternoon.
BY agreement the claims of the various
states for indemnities amounting to
100000 will go over until the next
session Of Congress-
Compilation of the various amounts
appropriated by the session of Con-
gress just ended shows that it was an
other "billion-dollar" session, the
amount for support of the various
branches Of the government for the
fiscal year 1928 being s1,O19,63s.-
1886. Had the 100000 indemnity
asked by several states and accepted
by the Senate. but refused by the
House, been provided for, then the re-
cent session of Congress appropriated
more than it's predecessor. And when
it is taken into consideration that the
recent session of Congress appropriate
ed less for Panama canal work than
the Congress of last year. it is found
that for general government expenses
this years bills exceed last years by
I$9, ,533,245.
Appointments Held Over
Several of the appointments made
n by the president will hold over until
y the next session Of Congress. the Sem
ate having failed to act on them.
8 Among these is the federal judgeship
\ in the southern district of Florida,
where John NJ. Cheney has been named
for the seat made vacant by the re-
tirement of Judge James w. Locke.
The president will now make the ap-
pointment an ad interim one. AS the
political complexion Of the next SEN
ate will be republican. as now, there is
#every reason for believing that Che

The candidate now here is Fred

state. He has been secretary of state
for three years and a half, and prev
ious to that served in the legislature
first as a representative and later as
