The session was for welcoming the

Though the opening of the meeting
was scheduled for $40 o'clock, II was
DELAYED for several minutes because OF
the non-arrival of the Richmond Bises

was reserved, and because OF the facs
that the Blues band was down on the

there being seven ministers of the

they do not consider that the means

proper ones to insure the prevention

DIR. Mason Gives Views.
Rev. Landon r. Mason voices the
opinion of those holding the latter
view, when he states that the min

of the bride, does not reach the heart

THE prevention of marriages be-

the Rev. Mr.. Mason yesterday after

which they may be prevented is to

DEBT CASE TAKEN
BACK To SUPREME
COURT BY VIRGINIA
Attorney General Samuel
Williams Asks its Help in
Bringing Refractory West
Virginians to law

Especial to The Richmond virginian.)
WASHINGTON, Sept. 30.--Samuel
". Williams. attorney general Of viz
ginia, today filed a motion with the
United States Supreme court. asking
that the court render d fiual decree
in the Virginia West Virginia debt
case
The court Is asked to take cog
nizance in the case and determine the
amount of interest due the Old Do
minion and how and when the
amounts shall be paid.
Why Action Was Taken.
The action taken today arose out
of the delay of the West Virginia com
a settlement with the Virginia COM
mission. The joint commission met
here early in July and following the
presentation by the Virginia commits
sion of its resolutions calling upon
West Virginia for the payment of the
original debt of s7,0o0,000 and APP
proxirnately S14.000,000 interest the
matter was discussed for three days
without result At first IL appeared
that an early agreement would be
reached, but the more the West Vir-
giuians discussed the case. the furth-
er they apparently got from an agree
ment to accept Virginia's PROPOSE
ton. Further discussion at that time
seeming useless, the West Virginia
commission asked for an adjourn
ment until August 18th, stating that
the unfamiiiarity of some of their
members with the question made de-
lay advisable.
Before the time set for the August
meeting here, the West Virginia ask
ed for a further delay, saying they
would advise John b. Moon, of Char
Iottesville, chairman of the Virginia
commission when they were ready &c
discuss the settlement
VirginIans Lose Faith.

TARIFF BILL GOES
TO SENATE TODAY
FOR FINAL ACTION
Passes House by Vote of 254
to lO3, but Four Democrats
Straying From Reservation

WASHINGTON, Sept. So.--By a
vote OF 254 to 1913 the house Of rep
resentatiyes today adopted the con-
ference report on the Underwood
simmons tariff bill. The measure has
thus been advanced one step nearer
the statute books. Only the concur
renee Of the senate ana approval by
the president remain atN for the Din
to become a law~aald effective at once.
The Democratic leaders believe the
senate will conclude consideration OF
the bill within a day or two and that
President Wilson will receive it in time

that trouble is brewing for the con-
ference report in the senate.

GRAFT announced that he would not
vote for the conference report in Its
present form unless he is bound To dc
so by caucus action. He started the
circulation of petition calling fol-
another caucus OF the Democratic
senator's to make changes in the bin
Other Democratic senator's are dis
gruntled over certain features. but II
Is doubtful II the opposition will be
able to put any serious obstacles in the
way OF the final adoption of the con
ference report
This was great Democratic day In
the house Speaker Clark made a
speech in which he congratulated
everybody in the Democratic party and
predicted that the new tariff would
bring fat times and plenty His speech
aroused good deal of enthusiasm.
In his address, Chairman Under
wood stuck to dry figures and facts.
He denied the charge made by Repre-
sentative Payne, of New York, that
the new tariff would create deficit,
contending that calculations made by
experts demonstrated beyond doubs
that the new law in It's first year
would yield enough to keep the wheels
of government in motion and at the
same time supply a surplus of APP
proximately $1s.o00,000.
Discussion Is Bitter.
Four and half hours debate was
allowed on the report and the ais
keussion at times was bitterly partisan,
Progressive Leader Murdoch secuted
the thought frequently expressed by
the Democrats that the rev tariff
would reduce the cost of living. He
asserted that more important factors
