Helped Frame Bill.

The Senate yesterday afternoon COM
pleted Its consideration OF the chemical
schedule OF the Underwood Simmons
tariff bill. with the exception of a few
paragraphs which were temporarily pass

bate. the republicans having made futile
attempts to change the schedule az pre-
pared by the democrats, abandoned their
demands for roll calls on their frequent
amendments. and quicker progress was
made with the bill than on any day pre-
vious.
When the debate opened Senator Lip
pitt of Rhode Island had read to the
Senate and referred to the lobby investi-

Mr.. Downing was quoted as saying that
the members of the merchants commit

JAPANESE FIND FAULT
Think Government Should
Take Advantage of Situa-
ton in Mexico.

TOXIC, July 26.--Some OF the leading
Japanese newspapers today accuse the
Japanese cabinet of lack Of diplomatic
adroitness in the negotiations connected
with the California alien land ownership
legiclation. They urge that advantage
should be taken of Mexico's friendliness
in order to further Japan's cause. At
the same time they question the SINGER
ity of the United States. NJ. Hashimoto,
vice minister Of commerce. made the fol-
lowing statement today In connection
with Japanese participation in the Pan
ama-Pacific exposition.
.'The authorities understand that 1t is
reasonable for Japanese merchants to re-
fuse to exhibit at the Panama-Pacific
exposition owing to their natural resent
ment against the alien land ownership
bill. but such participation would ease
the situation. and the Japanese govern
ment hopes that the nation will send as
many exhibits as possible

REPORTED MISS CARROLL
HAS ENDED ENGAGEMENT
Said She Has Dropped John
Philip Hill for a Russian
NObIeman.

special Dispatch to The Star.
BALTIMORE. Md. July 26.--It can be
authoritatively stated that the mar
rage OF Miss Susanna Carroll. daugh-
ter OF Mrs. J. Howell Carroll Of New
port. and United States District Attor-
ney John Philip Hill Of this city has
been indefinitely postponed.
Mrs. Carroll and her daughter are
now at Buena Vista Springs. Pa, and.
while they would make no statement
this evening, they did not deny that
the engagement was broken. No rea-
son was advanced by either the young
lady or her mother.
II will not discuss this very unpleas-
ant affair in any way" said Mrs. Car
roll
Miss Carroll would say nothing,
neither will Maj. Hill make any state
ment.
Russian Baron Suitor.
Since the arrival at Buena Vista
Springs of the CAROLS. they have been
frequently visited by Baron Orten-
sacker, a Russian nobleman, who is now
in New York. When Miss Carroll ar
rived at the springs the baron followed
on the next train. He remained for a
Maj. Hills place in Miss CAROLS af-
fections. She denied, however, that
there was an engagement.
Some excitement was caused last Sun
day when it was reported she had eloped
with the baron. He had left about
o'clock for New York and was accom-
panied by the young woman to the sta
ton. about two miles from the hotel
When Miss Carroll failed to return
within a reasonable time. Mrs. Carroll
hastily followed in carriage. It was
afterward explained the young lady had
visited friends at one of the Gotta es.
It Is believed that Notwithstanding the
denfals, Miss Carroll's engagement to the
baron will be announced as soon as that
with Maj. Hill has been officially declared
broken. When at the springs they are
always together and society is prepared
for an announcement.
Singularly enough, the relations be-
tween Mr.. Hill and the CAROLS remain
most friendly, and only recently he was
invited to pay them a visit. No one
can offer any reason for the break. ex-
cept that Miss Carroll found the baron
more to her liking.
