progress of the races. The indiscriml-
late use Of wireless will interfere
with these messages and deprive thos
waiting before bulletin boards the
world round of instant news of the
progress of the races. Such indlscrim-
mate use will also interfere with the
necessary daily commercial commun-
ication by wireless between ships at
sea and the port Of New York, which
must not be disturbed. Accordingly.
Secretary Redfield will make use OF
the law to prevent wireless interior
euce, and will restrict wireless mes
sages relating to the races during
their progress to the wireless appar-
atus on the, press boat. Special ar
rangement will be made to prevent or
detect violations of the law punish
ing wireless interference. Early nO.-
ice is given of this decision to enable
the press association, newspapers,
and wireless companies to comply
with the regulation. The press and

Secretaries of Yacht Club and the
Department Of Commerce De-
eide Questions.

Washington, June 1.--Secretary
Redfeld, of the Department of Com
merce, and Secretary Cormack, Of the
New York Yacht Club, conferred last
week about preliminary arrangements
for the international yacht races for
the Americas cup on September TO-,
r. and IS, off Sandy Hook. It has
been agreed that, as the success OF
the races depends upon a clear course
only one press boat, as in previous
years, will be allowed within the
lines. Notice of this decision IS given
now so as to allow the press associa-
lions and newspapers to charter a
suitable steamer and to arrange Tor
the division Of accommodations on
board. The vessel for the purpose
must be approved by the Secretary OF
Commerce and the New York Yacht
Club. Special arrangements will be
necessary this year to insure the
successful transmission OF wireless
bulletins from the course during the

out grog and said fifty per cent OF
the men would give it up if some
small addition to their pay were sub
stituted. He hoped some First Lord
of the future would take up the mat

would mean adding another $30O,OO0
to the pay of the men to bring about
the reform, which would lead to an
increase in efficiency all around.

SUFFRAGE GAINING GROUND.
The Liberal government has prom
Used to introduce two new measures
which, if carried by Parliament, will
make it possible for a much larger
number of women to become eligible
for election for town and county coun
ellis in England and Wales, and for
town, county, and parish councils in
Scotland.
As the law stands only electors are
eligible for these bodies and as only
householders may exercise the munic
ipal and local franchise, comparative
ly few women are eligible. The new
bills will make it possible for anyone
who has resided in the district for
one year to stand for election in thai
section. The practical effect of this
law will be that married ONE and
other women living in the homes OF
their relatives. may become members
of these local bodies.

TUBERCULOSIS

In addition to plenty Of fresh air
and proper diet, those suffering from
or who are predisposed to Tuberculo-
sis are recommended to use Eckman's
Alternative to stop light sweats, Danish
fever and hasten recovery. This medi-
cine, by reason Of its successful use dur
ing the past, warrants the fullest inves-
tigation possible by every sufferer.
Eckman's Alternative is most effica-
cious in bronchial catarrh and severe
throat and lung affections, and in up
building the system. It contains no
narcotics, nor harmful or habit-form-
ing drugs. Accept no substitutes. Sold
by leading druggists. Write to the

Caused Considerable Comment.

er of the late l.. Y. Letter Of Wash

would have attended but for the
death of the Duke of Argyll, has
been commented upon. r'
Liberals Were Absent.
"A good deal of remark" says
TRUTH, "has naturally been caused
by the absence of any one known to
be connected with the Liberal Party
from the magnificent bal given by
Lord Curzon last week. It is not to
be supposed that n was invited
on an occasion when the King and
Queen were to be present, and all the
less seeing that the noble host owes
his English peerage to a Liberal Gov
eminent; so one is reduced to the
conclusion that the entertainment

WILSON WINS
OPENING FIGHT
The Majority is in His Favor in
Toll Battle.
CLOTURE RULE ADOPTED.
Speaker Clark, Representative Under
wood and Others Voice Strong
Opinions On Repeal, But the
White House Is Victorious.

Washington, D. C.-President Will
son won the opening skirmish of the
greatest legislative battle of his Ad-
ministration when the House, over bit
ter protests from the recognized Demo-
cratic leaders and almost solid
minority opposition, adopted a special
rule for the consideration of the bill
repeating the free tolls provision OF
the Panama Canal act.
Speaker Clark, Democratic Leader
Underwood, Republican Leader Mann
and Progressive Leader Murdoch were
at the head of those lined up against
the Administration, but the House re-
sponded to the Presidents personal
appeal for prompt consideration of
the repeal bill as means of support
ing his Administration foreign policy.
Two votes demonstrated the Presi-
dents commanding influence with his
party in Congress on the first test, a
motion to end debate and preclude
amendment on the rule, carried by a
vote of 207 to 176; the rule itself was
adopted by 200 to 172.
Nothing to compare with the scene
had occurred in the House since the
famous Cannon rules fight four years
ago. In vain Representative Under
wood took the floor and urged his col
leagues to vote against the rule. The
rank and file Democrats, after listen
ing to three hours of passionate argu-
ment, swung into the Presidents col
umn, 1919 of them voting to prevent
the amendment of the special rule,
while only 55 followed the leader in
going with the minority in opposition.
Administration supporters consider
ed the crucial point passed, and jubi-
lantly predicted the passage of the re-
peal bill itself by majority of more
than 100.
Following the announcement OF
Speaker Clark against the rule, high
feeling had appeared on both sides of
the controversy and every influence
available was brought to bear on the
doubtful ones in the House.
AS a result, when the struggle be-
gan, both sides were keyed up to a
high pitch.
