Washington, "Wednesday, Feb. IL
The government ship purchase bill, as
an amendment to the Weeks naval ar
tillery bill, was passed by the House
ut l:20 o'clock this morning by vote
OF 2l5 to l21.
The passage of the bill followed a
fourteenhour parliamentary struggle
which until long after midnight threat
ened to extend interminably, because
of determined filibuster led by Mi
nority Leader Mann, who yielded only
after administration leaders decided to
apply second special rule to bring
the fight to an end.
When Minority Leader Mann saw
that the Democratic leaders were de-
termined to stop the filibuster, several
conferences were held and it was
agreed not to keep up the dilatory
fight and few minutes after O'Clock
vote began on the final passage of
the bill.
Debate in the House proceeded slow
ly throughout the afternoon and even
ing. halted time and again by roll
calls demanded by Republican Leader
Mann
When the bill had been before the
House for ten hours only four of the
six hours allowed for debate had been
consumed and the roll had been called
eight times on point of no quorum and
motions to adjourn.
Representatives Humphrey of Wash
ington, Moore of Pennsylvania. Mad
den of Illinois and other Republicans,
spoke against the measure.
Representatives Adamson of Georgia.
Small of North Carolina. Eagle Of
Texas, McKellar Of Tennessee and 9TH
er Democrats supported it.
Both floor and galleries were crowd.
ed as the debate neared a close.
Representative Mann made the con-
Guiding arguments against the bill. de-
claring he opposed it because it was
unnecessary and liable to involve the
United States in international compli-
cations.

REFUSE TO MODIFY POSITIONS
Stated That Germany and England
Continue Plans to Stop Commerce
on Neutral Vessels.

Washington. Feb. l7.-Dispatches
from Ambassadors Gerard at Berlin
and Page at London ann nouncing that
both Germany and England will refuse
the American shipping demands con-
stitute the most serious crisis that the
administration has had to face in its
foreign policy and threaten grave COM
plications. Officials are awaiting for
nal replies from Great Britain and
Germany to the recent American notes
on the subject.
In such dispatches as Ambassador
Page and Ambassador Gerard sent to
the State Department, telling OF their
informal conferences with the high Of
ficials of Great Britain and Germany,
respectively, there was no indication
that the former intended to alter its
policy on shipments of conditional
contraband to civilians. or that the lat
ter would recede from its announced
intention of waging II submarine war
on enemy merchant ships.
The British government has made
It's position clear as to the conditions
under which conditional contraband
will not be interfered with by them des.
tined to civilians in an enemy coun.
try: while the German government has
stated that If II can get food supply
for It's civilian population. 1t will re.
cede from It's submarine campaign.

organizations have agreed with the
governor to give their unanimous sup

ONE ON SECRETARY DANIELS
Head Of the Navy Evidently Not an
Expert as to the Odor Of
Alcoholic Liquors.

A story is going the rounds in
Washington about Secretary Of the
Navy Daniels which may or may not
reflect credit on that official, accord
ing to the point of view. According
to this story the secretary was one
morning comforting with an officer
and in the middle of his conference
interrupted the proceedings to say:
This is the second morning that |
have smelled whisky on your breath
sir!"
To which the officer is said to have
replied: 81 beg your pardon, Mr., Sec
retary, it was whisky yesterday, but
it is gin this morning"
No name has been allowed to leak
out In connection with this story and
it may be that there is more fiction
than fact in it.-Boston Transcript

ment in the strict enforcement of the
law.
The live stock quarantine law pro.
hibits the interstate movement of live
stock from any territory quarantined
by the secretary of agriculture, except
under certain conditions prescribed by
him.
The district court at Kansas City,
Mo-, in the case of United States VS..
Nixon, ct al, construed the act not to
apply to receivers of railroad compan-
les, for the reason that they were not
mentioned in the statute. The SUI
preme court reversed this decision,
and held that the amendment to the
original act was intended to make the
remedy as broad as the evil which was
sought to be cured, and that the law,
as amended, applied. to any common
carrier engaged in the interstate
transportation of live stock.
This decision is regarded of great
Importance in the enforcement of the
law enacted for the protection of the
live stock interests of the country.

Important Meat Ruling.

The supreme court Of the United
States has recently handed down de-
cisions of great Importance in the en-
forcement of the meat inspection and
live stock quarantine laws. The meat
inspection law provides for the in
spection of meat and meat food prod
ucts before they enter interstate COM
merce.
Among the provisions of this act is
one which prohibits anyone from I'M
lawfully destroying, or altering marks,
or other Identification devices which
are required to be placed upon the
meat or the containers.
Some parties in Kansas City, Kan,
broke a government seal on a car OF
meat and the lower court held that the
meat inspection act related alone to
those engaged in the business Of pre-
pairing meats for transportation and
the carrying of such meats in inter-
state transportation. The supreme
court reversed this decision and held
that the provision regarding identified
ton devices applies to every person,
firm or corporation, or officer, agent
Oh employee thereof, no matter whether
engaged In the interstate transporta-
ton Of the meats or not. This deci-
sion will materially aid the govern
