LOSE THEIR PAY
House Passes Resolution to In
sure Attendance.
FOREIGNER CAUSES ACTION
All Absent Members viii Be "Docked"

ness-Vote 213 to 81.

Washington, Aug. 2T.--The house
adopted a drastic resolution introduced
by Majority Leader Underwood, order.
ing absent members back TO their
duties and docking" them for every
day they are away except for sickness.
The vote on the resolution was 213
for, % against.
The fact that the war is spreading
and the danger that the United States
may be drawn into it is daily becom-
Ing more serious, is understood TO be
back OF the insistence Of the leaders
that full attendance be maintained
Mr.. Underwood said that before con-
gress adjourns II would be necessary
to pass bill to provide additional
revenue to meet the loss caused by
the falling off in imports.
I'VE will probably lose slO0,O00.0O0
Of revenue because the customs reve-
nues are cut off from Europe" he said.
THE country is at stake. For any
member of congress to say now that
he places his individual fortune and
the Necessity to take care OF his indi-
vidual fortune above his duty to the
country. in my Judgment, proclaims
that member unpatriotic and unworthy
Of a seat on the floor of this house.
The resolution was 20 follows;
Resolved, That leaves Of absence
heretofore granted to members are
hereby revoked.
Resolved. further, That the ser
geantat-arms is hereby directed to no
tify all absent members by wire that
their presence in the house Is required
and that they must return without de-
lay to Washington.
Resolved, further. That the ser
geant-at-arms is directed to enforce the
law requiring him to deduct from the
salary of the members their daily com
pensation when they are absent for
other cause than sickness of them
selves or their families"

Geneva, Switzerland, Aug. 2S.-Hun-
dreds of Americans are arriving here
from Germany penniless. Many or
the refugees report that they have
been robbed of important documents
and money. and that their fellow
Americans left in Germany are in a
pitiable state.
The situation is particularly bad at
Carlsbad, where they say that Ameri
cans are suffering indignities, although
they have been taken under the pro-
lection If the United States consulate.

The officers of the boat permitted the
American steerage passengers prac-
