yesterday following a conference between
President Wilson and Leader Underwood
Of the House.
Every effort will be made to adjourn
Congress before the November election.

not dissuade the administration from IL
sisting on the passage Of a revenue bill.
even II such consideration results in a
merger Of the current session with thu
one that will be begun on the frst Mon
day in December.
A final decision has been reached that
a revenue bill will be passed. All un-
certainty on this point was removed yes

fascination to be found in maginings

venturously through remote and semi

GAYETY.
"The Honeymoon Girls"

The truth Of the old adage, Time
changes all things" is evidenced In the
new kind Of burIesaue offered yesterday
by Phil OFT and his Honeymoon Girls"
at the opening Of the new season at the
Gayety. To the old-time frst-nighter who
claims burlesque is burlesque, this may
seem absurd, but 1t Is nevertheless a
fact that no show similar to The Girl,
the Man. and the Widow has ever be-
fore been seen at the Gayety.
All semblances OF the old cut-and-dried
burlesque show Is missing. Phil OFT.
James Rowland. Norma Bell. Alice Lazar.
and Nettie Nelson rely on their ability to
amuse rather than the old-time coarse
Jokes The entire performance is clean
cut and refined, and will compare favor
ably with any Of the higher-prieed must
cal comedies. There is plenty Of music
OF the whistling variety, countless laughs
clever dancing, and pretty girls, all OF
which are requisites for a show or this
character. "..
Phil OFT and James Rowland form a
comedy team that is hard to beat They
are never at a loss to make their hearers
laugh. Alice LaZar, Nettie Nelson, and
Norma Bell form a trio Of feminine
beauty the like OF which has never been
seen here before in a burlesque show.
All three are entertainers far above the
ordinary. Alice Lazar. who. besides be-
ing able to sing a rag" in the approved
way is q clever dancer. and undoubt-
edly the hRndsomest woman In burlesdue.
The chorus is unusually young and at
tractive. and can sing and dance. No
less than a dozen different startling cos
tunes are displayed 10 their best advan-
tage during the two long acts. The
scenery u elaborate and entirely new.

A telegram :ent to Gov. johnson. Of
California. warned him that lnasmuch as
the United States controls Samoa on
equal terms with Germany. any Japa-
nese attempt 10 seize the German half
might menace this country.
In our telegram to Gov. johnson we
purposed to give due warning Of what
might happen. We emphasized the word
might says the statement. 1t con-
tinues:
This press bureau was organized by
Americans Of German birth and descent
for the purpose OF enlightening the peo-
pie on the war, its course, and its de-
velopment. 1t Is neither an official nor
a diplomatic body but a private institu-
ton. and is consequently at perfect lib
erty to work as II thinks proper. We be-
lieve that Germany did not get the fair
play that she ought to have got."
