ONLY SIX VOTE TO RETAIN

The fate of the Commerce Court was

Democratic caucus of the House adopted
"a resolution which will make It legis-
latively possible to abolish the court
within a short time. Only six of the

The court is now In peculiar fix. After
June 30 IL will have no funds except as
Congress may hereafter specially provide

court will continue, however. as their
positions have not been abolished, but
they would be without quarters or en-
ployes. Previous legislation provided that
they should be reassigned to work on
the circuits.

court from sudden death by vetoing a

Grafton Bill Meeting Objections
of Railroads and Employees.

The Democratic caucus Of the Hous'
last night passed a resolution authoriz
ing the Judiciary Committee to report
favorably the Civic Federation bill drawn
by Seth Low. the aim of which is C
prevent the impending railroad strikes
in the Eastern half Of the country. The

eral minor details.
Representative Clayton, chairman OF
the Judiciary Committee, now will press
for early action by the House The bill
already has been favorably reported to
the Senate. and IL is expected 1t can be
enacted into law before the crisis be-
tween the Eastern railroads and their
employees has been reached.
The bill amends the present Erdman
arbitration law by making the size OF
the membership of Federal arbitra tion
boards discretionary. namely. either
three, six. or nine members, and giving
these boards the authority TO swear wit
nesses.
Both the railroads and their employees
had signified their intention to refuse 10
arbitrate under the Erdman law as IL
exists at present. but they have declared
their willingness to arbitrate under the
Erdman act as il will be amended by the
Civic Federation bill
II Is expected. therefore, that passage
of the bill will have the effect of elini-
mating all possibility of strike.

MANUEL QUEZON QUITS
PHILIPPINE SOCIETY
Convinced Object Of Organization Is
to Increase Sentiment for Reten-
ton of Islands.

Manuel Quezon, one OF the two resi-
dent commissioners of the Philippines in
the House OF Representatives, yesterday
announced his resignation from the Phil
ippine Society. because, he says. he Is not
in sympathy with the policy of that or
ganization.
Former President Taft is honorary pres
ident of the society. and recently, at a
dinner given. by the organization in New
York. made one of the most vigorous
speeches OF his career in taking exception
to certain remarks of Mr.. Quezon, who
had preceded him among the speakers.s
Commissioner Quezon says that he is
convinced that the real object of the So
ciety is to build up public opinion in the
United States in favor of the indefinite
retention of the Philippines by this gov
eminent.
81 am satisfied he says in his letter
of resignation. that the society has been
organized to gather the scattered forces
that are now at work TO preserve the
present regime in the Philippine Islands
and systematic and concentrate their
efforts.
1T is thus apparent that what. in the
opinion of the society, is a sympathetic
interest between the American and Phil
ippine people is nothing more nor less
than the continuation OF their present
governmental bond"

HETCH HETcHY BILL FAVORED.
Water Rights Question Discussed
by Director George o. smith.

The Hetch Hetchy water right bill
concerning the distribution of the waters
of the Tuolumne River. which brought
Secretary of the Interior Lane, Secre-
tary of Agriculture Houston, and Gif-
ford Pinchot before the House Public
Lands Committee yesterday, was made
the subject of discussion in letter from
George Otis Smith, director of the United
States Geological Survey. to Represent
alive Scott Ferris of Oklahoma, yester-
day afternoon.
In the letter the director of the Geo
logical Survey says that the question of
the distribution of the rivers waters Is
bound UP in the larger consideration OF
the three uses to which the water may
be put. and their comparative values.
These three are municipal use, irrigation,
and the manufacture OF power. Dr.
rector Smith summarizes the demands
of San Francisco and the other inter-
ests concerned in the river waters, and
concludes his letter by saying that mas
much as the bill in question serves the
present needs without compromising the
future, it commends itself to him.
