Grandma said when she heard of a
death she always felt glad; when she
heard of a wedding she felt sad; for
when one was dead their troubles were
done, but when they we're married
their troubles began. All newly mar

they buy their goods of The Central
Trading Co.

Congress Reaches the Much
Disputed Schedule
Lively Fight
REPUBLICANS WANT
DUTY OF Is PER CENT
Yesterday Was Field Day for Orators
on Both Sides but the Noise Couldn't
Drown the Chorus of Democratic
Noes on Every Vote.

WASHINGTON, Nav , - Schedule
X, embodying the much discussed and
always disputed wool tariff upon which
the Democrats maintain the Republi-
cans stumbled in their fall from pow
er last fall and over which their par
ey divided, brought the tariff fight
in the House to a climax today 1t
was early apparent that free raw wool.
as projected in the administration
fight, was in for a three-cornered con
test, the Republicans demanding n duty
4 of Is per cent and the wool insur-
gents of the majority standing for a
duty of Il per cent.
When the House adjourned last night
1 it had completed the agricultural.
wines and spirits, cotton and flax
( hemp and iute schedules The Demo
cratic majority had rolled steadily on
nonchalantly voting down every one
of dozens of amendments presented by
the Republicans and Progressives.
Yesterday was a field day for ora
tors on both sides, and the veterans
We'd with the boy orators among the
new members in their elocutionary eff
forts. The iniquities of the protective
tariff theory were dashed in ringing
periods by the Democrats and the dire
days of the panic of 1898 with its soup
scribed by the Republicans as the re-
suits of Democratic tariff doctrine ex-
emplifed in the Wilson bill.
When the political past for 20 years
and the political future for a century
had been thoroughly threshed ont III

tives Barnhart of Indiana. and Moore

point of reciting original poetry about
goats, Representative Underwood call
ed a halt. He insisted on confining de
bate thereafter to the merits of the
proposition under consideration and
with the mercury in the House ther
mometers going up at a mid-summel
gait, hurried through the flax sehedul,
in record time. The monotonous roll
ing chorous of Democratic noes
swamped amendment after amendment
as the schedule went through unchang
ed.

RELIEF STEAMER SINKS.
Second Disaster to Mississippi Boat
Costs 13 Lives.

CLAYTON. La, May ,. - Two men
and II Negroes were drowned and
Negro boy fatally injured here yester-
day when the steamer Concordia
struck an iron railroad bridge and
sank. The boat, which left Natchez,
Miss, Wednesday with relief supplies
for flood sufferers, was returning with
100 persons on board. Because o. the
flood the draw Of the New Orleans and
Northwestern railway bridge at Clay
ton had been left open, weighted with
cars loaded with iron. When the pilot
attempted to pass the swift current de-
fected the boat so that the bow struck
a pier. The boat was thrown against
the drawbridge. The steamer sank
soon, but was carried one and one
half miles down stream by the swift
current.
Those who escaped did so by jump
ing from the sinking boat to the
bridge The two white men drowned,
A. d. Geoghagen, 70, planter, of Clay
ton, and w f. Primm, 35, chief clerk
of the steamer Natchcz, were last seen
on the deck. The Concordia probably
will be total loss. She had just been
rebuilt, having in April. 1912, sunk
when engaged in relief work during
last year S flood.

CONDUCTORS WILL
TAKE STRIKE VOTE
Polling VIII Last Two Weeks-Rail-
roads. Refuse Arbitration to
Settle Wage Dispute

NEW YORK, May 3.-A strike vote
of the 100000 conductors and trainmen
on railroads in eastern territory was
ordered last night by the men 5 repre-
sentatives, who have been in confer
ence with the railroad managers here
over demands fo- increased wages re-
Gently submitted BY the employees. The
roads Thursday denied the men de-
mands and yesterday refused a propo-
sition to submit the dispute to
arbitration. This refusal was speedily
followed by a meeting of the men 5
committee, at which it was unanimous
~ decided to order a poll of the men
to determine whether the power to
call strike should be put in the
hands of the leaders.
Formal notice of this action was
served upon the roads last evening in
a letter signed by 4. b. Garretson,
president of the order of railway con
ductors, and W. G. Lee, president of
the brotherhood of railroad trainmen.
lit is expected that the polling of the
vote viii occupy two weeks or more,
After the vote is taken" Mr.. Lee
said last night. 1--WE will again re-
quest a conference with the represent
atives of the railroads, and at that
conference we will tell them the result
of the vote. ! III say now that / don I
expect to have to tell them that the
vote was against taking a strike
The wage dispute of the conductors
and trainmen has so far followed that
of the engineers and the firemen, both
these classes of employees having with
i'm the past year been granted increas
es in pay after prolonged conferences
the polling of strike votes and the
final submission of the issues to an
arbitration board. In the ease of the
firemeu. only recently concluded. the
Erdman law was invoked. The rail
roads have taken a strong attitude
against arbitration in the present pro
ceeding.
