BILL BY VOTE OF AZ TO is.
Adds Amendments Having Import
ant Bearing on Interstate Com
merce and Antitrust Act.

Washington, d. C.-The senate
passed the Panama canal bill by a
vote of AZ to Is after adding to it
some sweeping amendments having
important bearing on the interstate
commerce and antitrust act.
By vote of 40 to 1S an amendment,
offered by Senator Smith of Georgia,
was adopted, limiting the house pro-
vision again railroad ownership of
boat lines to those operated through

ment was offered by Senator Reed

Hot Weather Drink.

Philip Hale. one Of Boston's latter
day philosophers, recommends barley
water as more sensible drink for hot
weather than "ice-cold" blends of wa
ters, sirups, acids, gulped at the mar
BILE fountains. Mr.. Hale's recipe for
his favorite tipple Is as follows:
For three pints of water you will
require teacupful and half of well
washed pearl barley, four Jumps OF
sugar and the thin rind and Juice Of
one lemon. Pour boiling water over
1t, cover with saucer AID let 1t stand
till cold; then strain again and again
till clear, and pour into a Jug"
A buttermilk fan adds:
Then set the jug in cool place
and forget it."

Aurora, Ill,-The meat trust, far

"The eating of flesh foods produces

CLEAN BILL BY ExPENDl-

CHARGES OF ANDREW DENIED
House investigators In Their Report
Just Completed Praise the Work
of Department and Employees
and Make Suggestions.

Washington, .. C.-The house COM
mittee on expenditures in the
treasury department has completed
Its report of the investigation of the
department and 1t will be presented
to the house soon.
Disclosure Of the cause of
the alleged friction between
Secretary MacVeagh and his
Immediate subordinates has been
awaited with much interest. None Of
the allegations made by Assistant
Secretary A. Piatt Andrew when he
was forced to retire from the depart
ment are substantiated in the commit.
tees report.
The administration features of the
development are generally praised by
Chairman Cox and his associates, Sec
retary Macveagh and his subordi-
mates are given credit for having re-
duced the running expenses of the de-
partment and for having increased the
general efficiency of the employees.
Makes Some Suggestions.
The committee favors the abolition
of all assay offices except in New
York. A complete reorganization of
the customs offices is favored. The
committee suggested that the fee sys-
tenn be replaced by graduated salary
system in paying customs officers.
Many Of the districts where SO years
ago a large amount Of imports and
exports were handled are totally use
less to the business interests of the
country, the committee reports, and
suggests smaller, useless offices be
closed, while the money spent on them
should be expended in the important
Offices.
The supervising architects office,
the American Institute of Architects
and the board of award are severely
scored by the committee. The super
vising architects office has charge of
the design and construction of pub
lie buildings. The board of award
passes upon designs for public build
ings which are drawn by private ar
chitects.
Conclusion of Report.
The practice in vogue at the de-
partment of inviting architects to
submit drawings and designs in COM
petition with each other is a useless
consumption of time in both the de-
partment and the Office of the archi-
tects, the committee reports, as well
as useless expenditure of the peo-
pies money.
The board of award, sitting in
judgment upon design or plan Of a
proposed building, and in the last
analysis awards the contract to the
successful competitor, is composed of
men who are members of the Ameri,
can Institute of Architects.
Through the workings of the board
of award, this institute, as far as the
construction of public buildings is
concerned, is a closed corporation, the
report concludes.

Of the Greenwood school lately the
