Quorum Difficult

Both houses already are having
trouble in rallying quorum for the
transaction of business, but the party
whips are keeping constantly at work,
bringing members who have left town
back to Washington, and they hope
to expedite what business remains.
Some senators and representatives are
permitted to go home from time to
time to look after their political
fences, but the Democratic leaders
times from now on.
Anti-Trus Bills First
Again this week, the chief business
of the Senate will be to press the anti
trust bills with a hope of getting a
real start in the general debate on the
Interstate trade commission bill and
to complete the revision of the Clay
ton bill and the Rayburn securities
measure in committees so that they
may be submitted to the Senate. The
Clayton bill probably will be. ready by
Tuesday and Senator Newlands, chair
man of the interstate commerce COM
mittee. hopes to have the securities bill
perfected before the end of the week.
At least six weeks of discussion on
these trust measures is contemplated in
the Senate, although some Republicans
insist that 1t will be much longer than
that before all can be passed. There still
remains the probability that the three
bills will be consolidated into one. II that
is done the legislative task may not be so
prolonged. One thing that promises to

ing back a vote in an effort to win over
some of their colleagues who oppose his
confirmation. The outcome is doubtful,
both sides to the controversy claiming to
have a small majority.
Peace Treaties
President Wilson's desire to have the
new Bryan peace treaties ratified by ad-
tournment is another matter that may
prolong the session. The treaties, 20 in
all, are to be submitted to the Senate
within the next few days.
The Adamson general dam bill, involv-
ing the government policy toward the
development of water power and the i'm
provement of navigation is the big pend
ing business in the House this week. An
other effort will be made tomorrow to
seek unanimous consent for passage of a
bill to provide temporary development
of Irelands claims which are in dispute,
particularly in California. The bill would
allow the development of the lang I'M
der agreements to be made by the secre-
tary of the interior with the claimants,
which agreements, 1t is expected, will
provide for a payment of royalties to the
government.
The bill aimed against future transac-
tions on cotton exchanges is now in con-
ference between the two houses, with
prospect of an agreement this week, and
possible enactment into law at this ses-
sion of Congress.
Tomorrow the House naval affairs COM
mittee will again meet to go over rec
ords of officers whom the naval "plucking
board" recently retired. The inquiry was

Closely M atched

A comparison of the Resolute and
Vanitie and the Vanitie and Defiance
in contests in which the sailing con-
ditions were practically equal showed
how close the boats We're when the
winds were true and fairly strong.
In races between the Resolute and
Vanitie on June in Long Island
sound on June 10 off Sandy Hook and
on July off Newport all in winds of
more than 10 knots and over windward
and lneward courses, the Resolute beat
the Vanitie total of IA minutes and
A seconds in As miles of beating to
windward, while the Vanitie was 50
seconds faster than the Resolute in
running 45 miles down the breeze.
In the races off Newport of July II.
with the breeze moderate to the wind
ward mark and fairly strong back to
TIE finish, the Defiance beat the Van
lite % seconds in the 15-mile battle to
the outer mark, while the Vanitie out
ran her rival by three minutes and 50
seconds in the 15-mile run to the fin
ish. The race of yesterday would have
been included in this summary had
the first half mile been anything more
than a drifting match
9aehtsmen are eager TO see the three
boats in a 15-knot breeze holding true
from the start to finish.
