KERN WILL ASK FOR TOLLS REPEAL
 VOTE ON MAY q
Administration LeadersWill Not Permit Action On Measure Delayed
 Long

Washington May 10-Evidenee that the Senate administration leaders do not propose to permit action on the tolls exemption repeal bill to be long delayed was given tonight when Democratic Leader Kern announced he would ask the Senate tomorrow to give unanimous consent for a vote May H
 Senator Kern said while he was not confident unanimous consent would be agreed to, his motion would serve to remind senators who wished to speak that an effort will be made to get vote in the near future. He added that if the Senate did not agree, resort would be had in a few days to night sessions. Moreover. the Senate meeting hour will be advanced to II o'clock The majority leader was confident that despite the possibility of the rejection of an agree ment to vote May 27, debate might be concluded by that date.
 Some senators opposed to repeal were of the opinion, however. that vote should not be taken before week after anext, and after a considerable number of senators desired to speak democratic leaders might have the bill in working out their new plan.
 Arbitration Sentiment
 There was further proof today of a sentiment to arbitrate the tolls question. Senator Vardaman of Mississippi intro- duced an amendment sor the suspension Of the exemption clause until July 1, 1915, and thet submission of the construction or the HayPauncefote treaty to a joint conference of British and American com missioners. The conclusions of the con- ference should not be binding until rat- ned by both countries. In the mean ume. the resolution would provide, the toiis collected on coastwise vessels would De held in trust and in event the right or the United States to exempt it's ves- sels was upheld, the tolls would be re- turned to vessel owners

who examined the elevator after the
accident. both keys we're missing from
between the shaft and the drum. One
key was found on the basement noor,
and Peck's theory is that when he
pulled the rope to send the elevator

BRITISH POUR IN
Territorial Troops Arriving in
France by Thousands.
Part of Kitchenef's New Army
Is Expected Soon.

Havre, Nov. 30.-Colonial and ter
ritorial troops have been arriving from
England by the thousands. A part of
Kitchener's new. army is expected
soon, and the huts and fioored tents
now being erected in the outskirts of
Havre are said to be for it's reception.
The best trained territorial troops,
which have been over here long
enough to be somewhat acclimatized
and broken into the ways of the coun-
try, are already being moved up to-
ward the north to take their places in
the reserves. AS soon as thought fit
by the commanders, they will be
moved into the first line of battle
The soldiers in the British expedi-
tionary force are kept under iron dis
cipline in one respect, and those who
become unfit for duty through their
own fault are sent back to England
in disgrace.
If officers violate Kitchener's orders
1t means cashierment.
Tommy Atkins has nothing but
praise for the French people. Some
troops marched past the market place
In Havre the other day, according to
an American there at the time. and
the old fruit women held out their
baskets for the soldiers to help them
selves. This meant great sacrifice to
tnem, Tor their earnings are a matter
of a few pennies, and they gave away
their stock.
