WASHINGTON QUICKLY
RECEIVERS FROM GALE

Washington made a speedy recovery
last night from its storm Of two days
and went to bed happy in the prediction
from the Weather Bureau that today will
be fair and warmer with not a sign on
the horizon of n comeback from the
gale.
Regular train schedules were estab-
lished last night and though a few
trains arrived late at Union Station yes
terday. II was stated that normal con-
ditions on all roads leading into the
National Capital will be restored today.
Telegraph and telephone lines are
nearly all repaired and the transmits
sion of messages today will be as sure
and speedy as before the storm. The
river is low and ice cakes are jam
ming but little apprehension is felt by
rivermen as the channel Is clear.
The mercury -ent up above 10 degrees
yesterday and the wind did not blow
above thirty miles. an hour. These con-
ditions with an almost unclouded sky
and bright sun were considered nearly
ideal by those who passed through the
e5-mile gale and zero weather of the
day before.

is opposed to suffrage and well he may
be-" exclaimed the Senator from Mime
sofa Every evil influence of politics
is opposed to votes for women and
well they may be, for votes for women
means the end Of corruption in poll
tics
Senator Borah asked Mr.. Ciapp IL the
amendment would enfranchise the col
ored women of the South. Senator
Clapp replied that he could not say,
but that certain results should follow
as a logical sequence. Asserting that
co:ored women in the South would not
be allowed to vote even IL the amend
ment were adopted, Senator Borah
said that he was opposed to putting
into the Constitution a hypocritical
clause that everybody knew would be
disobeyed."
Senator Clapp insisted that Congress
should perform its duty. regardless of
what the States might do. He dwelt
in glowing phrase on the march Of
Democratic government which means
popular government
Senator BOrah retorted that Democratic
government was not being advanced by
the adoption of amendments to the Con-
stitution proclaiming certain rights and
then disregarding them or winking at
the violation OF them. Senator Bryan
and Senator Williams closed the debate
on the subject of opposing woman suf-
frage and incidentally defending the laws
of the Southern States limiting suffrage.
The point made by Senator Borah that
the proposed amendment would confer
suffrage on the negro women of the
outh, and the Southern States would not
legislate in accordance with II. has un-
doubtedly weakened the prospects for
passing the resolution The Southern
Senators are particularly hostile.

ity leaders of the House and Senate, will
be asked today to present a resolution
for joint session OF the House and

will be approved.
The President, in his message, which
will be comparatively brief, will express
the view that the free tolls provision vio-
lates the Hay-Pauncefote treaty with
Great Britain. At the same time he will
characterize II as a special privilege to a
monopoly. and hence foreign to the
fundamental principles OF the Democratic
party. He will make the repeal of the
provision a party matter.
