REMARKS MISQUOTED,
 DECLARES EVANS
Brigadier General Denies He Criti- cised Administration in Speech
 at New York Last Week.

Washington, July 2.-Brigadier General Robert K. Evans, temporarily commanding the eastern department of the army, in a report to Secretary Garrison today, denied that he criti- cised the administration in a speech delivered in New York last week. General Evans declared his remarks were misquoted in reports which rep resented him as having said: We need a large army because with our great variety of interests we are nat urally the most meddlesome nation in the world"
 When reports of the speech were laid before President Wilson he i'm mediately called upon Secretary Gar rison to demand an explanation from General Evans. Tn his letter today to MT. Garrison, General Evans said he was speaking extemporaneously, and forwarded as nearly as he can re- member the remarks which he says he actually made and explained the meaning he intended to convey.
 Secretary Garrison declined to make public General Evans letter. He will forward it to the president, upon whom further action depends.

ANTITRUST PROGRAM
 WILL BE PRESSED
Senate Leaders Entertain Hope Congress May Ad-
 journ By Sept. 1.

Washington, Juy 2.-Having form ally resolved in party conference to remain in Washington until the ad- ministration antitrust program is finally disposed of. democratic lead CTS in the senate were determined to- day to press the proposed legislation to a conclusion. These measures in- clude the trade commission bill, the Clayton antitrust bill and the rail- way securities bill.
 Decision that congress should not adjourn until the antitrust legisla- tion had been passed was reached at a conference of senate democrats late yesterday. A resolution to that ef- feet was adopted which was intended as an answer to the propaganda for immediate adjournment of congress
 The majority plan to press for a vote on the trade commission bill at the earliest possible moment. To that end the senate is to be asked to begin holding night sessions next week and an effort made to keep a quorum on hand at all times. The other two trust bills are still in com mittee, but it is hoped to have them reported to the senate at an early date.
 Chairman Newlands of the senate interstate commerce committee, fol- lowing a conference with President Wilson last night, announced that the trade commission bill would be passed shortly and that there should be little trouble over the remainder of the program. The hope is now en- tertained by some of the leaders that congress can adjourn not later than September 1, with the trust program completed.

BAN ON SWEEPING
 WALKS IN DAYTIME
Dr. Reeks Would Establish "Period of Safety" for Those Using the
 Public Streets.

As precautionary measure against the spread of disease germs, Dr. T. E.. Reeks, superintendent of health, has a plan which he has submitted to the health commission which would pro- hibit the sweeping of sidewalks and public places after a certain hour in the morning and before u certain hour in the evening.
 pr. Reeks has noticed while going to his office in the morning that many merchants make a practice of having their sidewalks swept while there are large number of people on the street. The practice is to sweep the dust and debris into the gutter and clouds of dust are thrown into the air. thus spreading millions of germs.
 It is the opinion of the superin- tendent that sidewalks should be swept early in the morning and that the closing up sweeping should be done late in the evening when the pos sibility of disease germs finding their way into the peoples lungs and sys- tems would be minimized He says that this precaution is being taken in all up-to-date cities.
