Episcopal Ritual Observed.
In the chapel the graduates. pupils
alumnae and faculty took seats on either
side of the chancel
The body of the house of worship
was filled with parents. relatives and
friends of the graduates Many could
not find seats i'm the little building.
The Episcopal ritual WAS observed.
| Bishop Rhinelander preached a ser
mon. Bishop Harding distributed the
diplomas. repeating the formal phrase
of presentation 10 each of the sixteen
graduates. He also made the charge
to graduates.
The joy OF the day. he said. lay in the
fact that graduation and diplomas stood
for something accomplished something
worked for through the term of the
school course and finally attained. and
also in the prospect of a wider field foi
attainment in the outer world. The loss
| of the school in their graduation. he told
| the graduating class. WAS a general gain
To the world. to the church and even Il

He asked them not to forget the
| school that gave them their education
| but to stand back of il and aid in its
progress throughout their lives.

Investigation Postponed Only.

The postponement OF the investiga
ton by no means indicates that the
investigation will not be had. A large
amount of information relating to the
civil service and many complaints
against the administration of the serv-
ice have been laid Lefore the commit
tee. Senator Overman is insistent that
the investigation be held and so Is
Senator Pomerene.
1t is realized. however. that such inves-
LEGATION will be long and important, and
that much time must be devoted to 1t by
the senators who conduct it.
Another reason suggested for delaying
the investigation for few months. par
ticularly if it is to he made with the aid
of the heads of the government depart
ments suggested by the resolution of
Senator Pomerene. is that the new men,
bers of the cabinet will be much more
familiar with conditions in their depart
ments and better able to furnish informa-
ton such as the committee desires.

CIVIL SERVICE INQUIRY
UNLIKELY THIS SESSION
Tariff Duties Probably Will
Force Investigation Over Un-
til Next Winter.

The prospects of an immediate inves-
tigation of the civil service administra-
ton, as proposed by resolutions offered
by Senator'S Overman and Pomerene, are
by no means as bright as they We're two
or three weeks ago. In fact. it is i'm
probable that any such investigation will
be begun before the regular session opens
next December
Senator Pomerene, chairman of the
committee on civil service, to which
have been referred the resolutions call
ing for an. investigation, has found 1t
practically impossible to get his COM
mttee together at this time to take up
the consideration of the proposed inves-
tigation. Senators are one and all bust
~ engaged upon the tariff bill. Many of
them are beginning work on currency
matters
While the chairman has held no
formal meeting of his committee, it
is understood that he has sounded out
most of the members and has found
it to be generally conceded that the
proposed investiga ton must wait for

ALLEGE THE POLICE
DELAY THEIR CARS
Capital Traction Officials
Lodge Complaint With Gen.
eraI Utilities Commission.

Another case has been added to the
docket of the public utilities commits
sion with the filing of a complaint by
the Capita! Traction Company to the eff
feet that delays have occurred on the
lines of the company caused by the
"unlaw act and direction of officers
and members Of the police force of the
District of Columbia.
The complaint. signed by President
George +. Hamilton OF the company,
states that delay of twenty eight
minutes was caused on the Pennsyl-
yania avenue line during the march of
tlR suffragettes to the Capitol. Another
delay of five minutes on the same line
was occasioned by small civic parade
he states. while a third delay OF six
teen minutes on the Pennsylvania
avenue and 18th street lines resulted
from a parade of High School Cadets
Attached to Mr.. Hamilton's letter are
reports explaining the delay in each in
stance and attributing the fault to the
police department.

Provision of Law Quoted.

Sections of the law Incorporating the
company, which state that the mayor.
common council and several officers of
the corporation of the cities of George
town and Washington are prohibited from
doing any act or thing to hinder or OBJ
struct the operation of the railway line,
are quoted in the letter.
Investigation of the complaint has been
made at the direction of Maj. Richard
Sylvester. superintendent of police, who,
in a report TO the commission. states
that, in the matter of parades, the police
department has done much to minimize
their number and extent within the last
few years. and. in that action, has elimi-
mated much of the disorder and obstruc-
ton formerly associated with the march
ing of bands
Il am of the firm impression and be-
lief" continues the report, that the dis
position OF the members of the police
force at all times and on all occasions is
to further the movements of the street
cars, as is expressed in the report of
Sergt. Headley. and l am also of the
opinion that the disposition of some of the
inspectors toward officers is. at times.

Denies Corey's Charge.
Pools Defended by Hoar.

NEW YORK, June 3.-That the late
Senator Hoar OF Massachusetts, who
framed the Sherman antitrust law. wrote
an opinion one year after its enactment,
which held that steel manufacturers who
entered pool agreements to fix prices,
regulate output and divide profits could
not be convicted under the law. came to
light yesterday at the hearing of the
government dissolution suit against the
United States Steel Corporation.
Il cannot see any distinction in prin-
ciple" wrote Senator lIoar between a
contract of workingmen not TO work for
less than a stipulated sum as wages and
a contract of employers not to sell their
product for less than a stipulated sum.
Both these being intended for their legiti-
mate protection and not accompanied with
any stipulation for unlawful, oppressive
or fraudulent methods seem to be lawful
within the policy of the law as it now
exists and not to be in restraint of trade,
but in advancement thereof

WHEN WATSON
SAW PRESIDENT
Visit of Candidate for Governor Of
Hawaii TO Wilson Was Looked
Upon as Favorable.
BY Ernest C. Walker.

(Mail Special 20 The Adveitiser.)
WARRINGTON, May There seems
good reason for specializing whether it
will not soon be Gov. T.. Nj. Watson, of
Hawaii. Before thiS letter reaches Ho-
nolulu, the matter should be clear one
way or the other But the fact remains,
as cablod to The Advertiser today, that
Mr.. Watson called upon Secretary of
the Interior Lane this morning, accom-
panied by Representatives Benjamin
GrubB Humphreys, of Grecnville, Miss,
and William Cannon Houston, of Wood
bury, Tenn. These two congressman are
his stcadfast friends. They all talked
with Secretary Lane for three.quarters
of an hour, during which time Secretary
Lane asked many questions.
Before the interview closed Secretary
Lane asked Mr.. Watson to 90 to the
White House and talk with President
Wilson. 1t was this request that has
Given Mr.. Watson and his. friends here
much hope. The President has very
hard and fast rule against receiving
candidates foe office, but he reserves the
right to send FOR any of these gentle
men when he wishes. The other candi
lates for Governor of Hawaii have met
resident Wilson, but not under any
uch auspices as allowed to Mr.. Watson.
Now whether Secretary Lane has
made up his mind to recommend Mr..
Wilson for Governor and wants Wat
on to give the President an opportunity
70 tell him he is to bo nominated, or
whether Secretary Lane simply thinks
veil of Watson-better than he thinks
Vt the two rivals-and wants to give the
resident chance to look Watson over,
is matter of speculation. There is
some mystery about the status at the
department. of the interior, but there
