FREEZING TEMPERATURE
IN SIGHT FOR TOMORROW
Clear and Colder Is Predic-
ton, But Storm in West
Not Expected Here.

Today's downpour, officially classified by
the weather bureau as showers" came
billed straight through from the south,
where yesterday prevailed what descrip-
tive writer's call torrential rains. The
storm, according to the weather man, is
rapidly passing to the northeast, and ii
is due to leave Washington some time
during the night. after which the weather
will be clearing and colder. By tomor-
row night, the forecaster says, freezing
temperature may be expected.
Out through the west and the middle
west some of the most liberal and COM
prehensive snowstorms of the season
have been holding the center of the
stage. They have also been holding up
trains like any other highwayman, and
schedules have been seriously disarrang-
ed in consequence thereof. However,
these untimely billiards.. after getting as
far east as Ohio, changed their minds,
and whisked off to the northeast, where
they have about disappeared by this
time. Weather in the west this after
noon is alleged to be clearfand cold.
TodayS rains have been general all
down the Atlantic coast, and as much as
five inches of dampness was reported
from eastern Alabama and western
Georgia, while the east gulf coast and
the south Atlantic states suffered from
gales.
But next week is to be better. says the
forecaster, who is a base ball fan and
who is getting anxious for some real base
ball weather. The warmer weather may
be expected to set in perhaps Sunday, or
by Monday, anyhow, and the forecaSter
says that maybe it will be warm and
clear for several days.

his views on the bad condition of work
horses In the city, stating that such con-
ditfons were brought about by overwork
and bad treatment He drew a picture
contrasting horses here with those in
Stockholm, Sweden, where women will
stop their carriages and get out to bind
up the wound of an injured horse with
a handkerchief Horses there are never
whipped or overloaded. but are treated
with great kindness.
At the close of the meeting the pupils

pected that another meeting will be held

CURB UPON RAILROADS.
Barred From Holding Stock in
Steamship Lines by Bill.

Representative Covington Of Maryland,
member of the House commerce commit
tee has introduced a bill that would pro-
hibit any railroad or other common car
rier from owning stock in or controlling
directly or indirectly a steamship line
with which it completes.
The measure revives the issue recently
before the committee to prohibit the use
of the Panama canal for railroad-owned
vessels.
A second section of the Covington bill
would provide that whenever a railroad
operates a through rate in connection
with a water transportation company a
similar rate should be accorded without
partiality to other water transportation
lines which might seek to make such a
rate agreement with the common carrier.
In an effort to bring about competition
between railroads and steamship lines,
the Covington bill is most drastic in its
provisions regarding direct and indirect
control of stock. and would absolutely
prohibit any railroad from exerting con-
troll over any competing water line.

Act on His Bill,

Approaching warm weather and SINH

today by Senator Chiffon on the Senate

why he hoped it would soon make some
kind of report on his bill to make i,
unlawful for one interstate railroad COM
Lpany to own the stock or bonds Of an
other when the control Of both in one
corporation would be a violation Of the
Sherman antitrust laws.
''All I want Is to write the Supreme
Courts Northern Securities case into the
statute book" said the senator. How
the people of West Virginia have suffered
along this line / need not now tell you
You make any kind of a report on this
bill and I'll take my chances on 1t in the

EXCISE BILL ATTACKED
Minority Report Presented to
House Declares Measure
Is Unconstitutional.

In a report on the excise tax bill
Representative Longworth, for the
minority Of the House ways and means
committee, argues that it is unconsti-
tutional; that even if constitutional
with respect to the levying of an ex-
else tax on business, employments, etc,
it is unconstitutional in so far as 1t
levies tax on the income derived
from real estate: that it is crudely
drawn and affords many loopholes for
the evasion of the taxes sought to be
imposed, and that. even if it were held
constitutional in every respect, it would
not raise more than a small fraction of
the revenue proposed by the majority.
Presents Chance to Escape.
Continuing. Mr.. Longworth says: Mr..
Carnegie, for instance, and John D.
Rockefeller would entirely escape taxa
ton, and such great real estate owners
as the Astors. whether living In America
or abroad, and whether their incomes
are spent in America or diverted to for
eign countries, would be exempted from
taxation, while the men who are carrying
on active enterprise and through their
enterprise are giving employment to their
fellow men and affording the means of
livelihood would be subject to taxation"
The minority also charged that the ma
jority misapplied and misunderstood the
decision of the Supreme Court on the
subject. 80

Vanadium Steel.
From Casters Magazine.

The introduction Of the element vana-
dunn into the manufacture of steel en-
abled the production Of a material hav-
ing at the same time q higher elastic
limit, an increased tensile strength, and
a greater resistance to shock and vibra-
ton. Formerly the increase in any one
Of these properties meant a decrease in
the others. but with the modern steel no
such give and take appears, and the
vanadium alloy steel has all these desir-
able properties raised together.
The advantages Of such Improvement
may be utilized in various ways. For the
automobile, and still more for the aero
plane. 1t becomes possible to reduce
weights without reducing strength. In
the case of stationary machinery the
dimensions and weights of parts under
stress may remain unchanged. while ac-
quiring a much higher resistance than
before. This is especially important in
connection with moving parts subjected
to centrifugal stresses, since any increase
in weight involves increased stress. and
the only way to secure greater resistance
lies in the use Of a higher grade of ma
terial.
