WASHINGTON. Oct. =.
Canoeing his Panama trip because
of the threatened insurgency of DEM
ocratic senator's on the currency
question, President Wilson is going
to make another effort to force the
Senate majority to resign its pre-
negatives and allow him to dictate
the terms of the currency bill. Despite
optimistic statements from the White
House yesterday and today it is
well known here that the President
understands he has a fight on his
hands. The fight grows out of the
fact that the Senate wants to do its
own legislating, and the President
insists upon the Democratic caucus
| iamming through the House bill,
made at the White House, without
consideration or amendment.
The cancellation of the Panama
trip, upon which the President had
been counting, and for which he has
been arranging for several months,
was made only after it became as
sured that only the most vigorous
use of the big stick can hope to
force the currency program the adj
ministration wants. So the big stick
| is to be used. and every method pos
sible is to be invoked to club SEN
ators into caucus on the currency
measure.

DisIikcs Ficlder's Move.

From the Philadelphia Ledger.
Many Democrats of Camden look
with disfaYor on the action of Gov
ernor Fielder in attempting to read
James Nugent, the Essex county
leader. out of the party. Some as
serted he was weakly initiating Pres
ident Wilson They thought the
action tactical blunder, asserting
that he should at least have waited
until after election.
Some Democrats expressed surprise
at Sheriff Nowrey's voting for Con-
vrossman Kinkead for State chair
man. against Edward II. Grosseup, a
south Jerseyman. Sheriff Nowrey was
virtually alone among Democratic
leaders in Camden. 1t was said that
Prosecutor Kraft was GrosScup
man. and that Judge Carrow was OPP
nosed to the proposal of Governor
Fielder TO displace Grosscup as
chairman of the State committee.
Crosscup backed the local leaders in
their selections for appointments by
Mr.. Wilson. both as governor and as
President. and they favored him as
State chairman.
Sheriff Nowrey said he voted for
Kinkead because the governor OK
pressed a preference for him, The
sheriff also said Congressman Kin
kead was his personal friend and had
done yeoman work for him.

Finds $4,000 Pearl In Oyster After
Throwing Another One Away.

PHILADELPHIA, oct. George
Rogoyoy, a Russian tourist, who is
visiting in this city, with his wife,
dined last night in a fashionab BILE res
taurant in Chestnut street. While he
was eating his third oyster Rogovoy
bit into something hard.
He took the substance from his
mouth and threw it along the floor
with Impotence. His wife, who is a
practical woman, said:
MY dear, that might have been a
pearl"
"Pooh!" said Rogovoy. .Neverthe-
less. when his teeth again closed upon
something else hard in his sixth oys-
ter he took it from his mouth and eX-
amined it. Then he and his wife went
to a Chestnut street jeWeler and were
informed that the object was a pear
shaped pearl of perfect contour, and
about twice as large as a large pea.
They were told it is worth $1,000.
Now Rogovoy is wondering how
much he threw away.

Julius Chambers, in Brooklyn Eagle.
Thomas a. Edison is probably the
one American scientist of this gen.
Grafton whose name will live forever.
What he says commands attention.
Most of the promises he has made
to the public have been kept. When
he foretold the subdivision of the
electric light and years dragged
along before he achieved success,
there were many scoffers. He said
nothing about the photograph, the
basis Of all subsequent talking ma

an astonished world.

ize the movies" and the human voice.
The moment that is done grand opera
with the best voices, can be enjoyed

I recently heard Daniel Frohman
say that the future possibilities OF
the moving picture play were far
beyond present conception. 1t VIII
be recalled that he gave a complete
performance of THE Prisoner of
Zenda" at the close of last season,
and himself made an Introductory
address. One charm of the affair WAS
that the actors who had played be-
fore the camera sat in the stalls and
had an opportunity to criticise their
own work. 1t ought to have been a
highly profitable afternoon to one and
all of them-not that their work was
bad but because, for the first time
they had a just conception of how
they looked upon the stage.
Edison has done so much for hu-
mainly that this last promise from
him adds a new obligation. Nothing
but death, he declares, will stop him
from work again. He lost health on
his recent vacation.

Homes for French workers.

From the London Telegraph.
The city of Paris, following the ex-
ample of the authorities in many
other towns and countries, is making
an effort to provide tenements or
lodgings for the poorer class OF work
people, and sum of zoe, 100000 francs
has been set aside for this purpose.
n has been decided to allot out of
that sum 50,000,00o francs as sub
sidv in the form of loans to philan-
thropic institutions which provide
ha bitatio for the poor, or private
owners who make certain liberal con-
cessions to workers. The remainder,
$50. 900, 900 francs is to be devoted to
buildings under the direct supervision
of the municipal authorities, and an
effort will be made to construct d
number of hygienic habitations IN
the very centre of the city, where
many poor people are compelled to
reside to be near their work.
At present numerous families of
this class are crowded in small, in
salubrious lodgings, without sufficient
air or light, or are obliged TO live in
soualid rooms under the roof of six
and eight story houses. The munich
pality owns a certain area of ground
which might be used for erecting
buildings of this kind in the central
wards of the city, but by far the
largest area of municipal or public
property available is situated on the
outskirts or forms part of the ground
of the Notifications, which are to be
RACED Although the sums SO far
allotted for the purpose would not
cover all the needs of the working
classes in Paris, still it is believed
that lodgings for nearly 1000 families
can be provided. This will be be-
aiming, and with private and philan-
thropic enterprise helping along, 1t
is hoped that something will shortly
be done to relieve the present dis
tress among the poor, whose uni
versal complaint is that they can no
longer find suitable housing in Paris

Government Coal Mines.


From Consular Report.
According to the annual report OF
the coal mines in Limburg, business
in this branch of the government en-
terprises was very satisfactory. The
working and output of the, mine Will
helmina was regular; work on the
mines Emma and Hendrix, now being
constructed, was pushed vigorously,
while drilling on a fourth government
mine was also commenced. OCCASION
ally, however there was difficulty In
obtaining sufficient laborers for the
three mines. Laws passed in l9l2
provided for purchasing Maasvelden,
covering about 1850 acres, for $3.50, :
6S7, and taking for public use land
needed for constructing the mine
Hendrix and for connecting railroads.
The total net production was 324,S40
metric tons in 1912, of which 163, ITO
tons were exported Wilhelmina sales
averaged $3.50 per ton, while Emma
coal sold at $40. The increased de-
mand for Dutch coal caused prices to
go UP. and proceeds were better than
in 1911; consumption of the Wilhel-
nina coal particularly increased in
The Netherlands. After discharging

Income Tax and Bachelors

From the Philadelphia Record.
A bachelor with a $4,000 income will
be given an inducement TO marry
amounting to $40 year by the new
income tax laws. Married men Will
be exempt from the tax if their an
nual income does not exceed $4,000;
but the unmarried will be entitled to
an exemption of only $4,000. On any
excess over this amount they Will
have to pay | per cent. besides a
surtax on an income of more than
$50. 900 A bachelor earning A,oo0,

$40 which. if married, he would es-

il will have to be paid on incomes
earned or accrued since March A.,

question. Could bachelor, by mar
rying now. avoid payment Of the en-

to a part of the married mans bonus
proportionate to the number of
months for which he takes up the
burdens of matrimony? In the latter

MAY REJECT OLYMPIC GAMES
Great Britain's Last Appearance in
Great Contests May End With 1916
Meeting at Berlin.

If the wishes of the majority of
British sportsmen is followed, Great
Britains last appearance in the
Olympic games will be at Berlin in
1916. This sentiment is steadily
growing, and public opinion would ia
vor withdrawing from the Olympic
games except for two reasons: First,
the Germans might construe the with
drawal as due to anti-German preju-
dices, and second, other nations might
think that, after the poor showing the
team made at Stockholm, Great Brit
ain was unable to hold it's own against
the teams of other countries.
The policy advocated by the most
influential men in the English world
of sport is to send representative,
well trained delegation to Berlin, and
then withdraw gracefully. The rea-
sons behind this policy lie in the be-
lief that the Olympic games are be-
coming semi-professional contests, and
that, instead of fulfilling the purpose
of their founders, which was to create
international friendships, they have
had the opposite effect.
Theodore Cook, who is the most
influential member of the British
Olympic council, in discussing the
matter, Declares
Personally | am of the opinion that
as soon as we have decided that a
team can be sent to Berlin, we should
also decide to withdraw from the
games in the future, at date previ-
Gus to the choice of a city at which
the games will be held in 1920 l saw
this in spite of my belief that the
preparations for the Olympic games
and competition in them are of the
greatest benefit to all forms of sport
in this country, because we seem too
much inclined to take things easy,
to avoid all trouble and to play our
games among ourselves, whether
other people play them better or not"

toonist who draws him that way now
adays is out of date.
Football headgear is the answer. The
football hero of olden days used to
claim his heavy locks were cushion
to save his skull when he landed hard.
Football helmets are now almost uni
yersally worn by college and high
school footballists. Long hair and per-
SEPARATION form combination that
makes helmets almost uncomfortable.
Either the helmets or the hair had
to go and the gridiron lads had their

president of the American Olympic

that the charges are grossly absurd.

invent reasons to soothe his wounded
feelings"
In conclusion, Mr.. Thompson
writes: Il hope that your athletic
world will be able to settle its own
disputes without constant reference
to what heretofore has been a friend
