SESSION
 IS ABANDONED
CONGRESS WILL LIKELY BE CON VIEWED IN OCTOBER INSTEAD
 OF DECEMBER.
The Conference Report on the Ship Purchase Bill Win Be Put Through the House Monday

Washington, Feb 27.-Plaus for an .eXtra session of the senate Co ratily treaties and confirm nominations i'm. mediately after March have been abandoned The foremost of possi- bilites being considered today was an extra session beginning probably on October ], TWO months earlier than the siXty-fourh congress ordinarily would assemble
 Leaders today were agreed that by assembling about October 1. an earA start also could be made on the re- mainder of the administration pro- gram which includes the Philippine bill, the conservation bills. the teeu lation of issues of railroad securities aud the ratification of the pending treaties with Nicaragua and Co.om. bia The situation on the ship bil is still indefinite
 Favorable action was taken today by the senate interstate commerce committee on all President Wilson s nominations to the federal trade com mission except George Ruhlee.
 That removed one remote possibil- ity of an extra session of the senate in March.
 To begin congress in October. it is being urged would permit the adjourn ment atleast early in the summer of 1916 before the political conventions and the presidential campaign
 Both houses continued today work ing on appropriation bills and confer enca reports. There was every pros peet that all would be completed by March 4, with exception of the river and harbor bill for which a joint resolution appropriating a lump sum to be expended by the war depart ment probably will be substituted.

TO PROMOTE FRIENDSHIP
 BETWEEN U. S. AND JAPAN

Tokio Feb. 27. Looking to the preservation and promotion of friend- ship between Japan and the United States, a committee of prominent Japanese is tc meet a committee of Americans to discuss the relations between the two countries. The move ment was started on December l7 last year when as already cabled. the American Peace Society of Japan at ite annual meeting voted to name a body of . Americans resident in Ja. pan to investigate and prepare a statement on the various questions existing between the two nations. The thought behind the project, which has now been taken up by the Japanese, is that Japan has no intention to make war on the United States and that the United States has no idea of making war on Japan However, it is deemed imperative to discuss the existing problems frankly and fully, and if possible suggest means of re. moving all mieunderstandings.
 As president of the Japan Peace Society, Count Okuma, the prime min ister has named a committee to meet with the Americans. The list is not complete as yet but includes Baron Sketani, mayor of Tokio: Baron Shi. busawa, Dr. Nitobe. Dr. Soyeda, Wis count Kaneko and others

plan attacned to the agricultural bill in the senate brought the scriou4 Wraugle in the consideration Of th-
 supply bin in the house today Afte. much parliamentary maneuyeliug the bill went to a committee which will report it back for consideration of all proposed rural credit plans. 1t IS planned to have the committee rec ommeud Senator Hollis rural credits bin as a substitute This measure, it is understood, is satisfactory to the uresid ant At a conference between Democratic Leader Underwood. Post master General Burleson, who spoke for the president, Chairman Lever of the agricultural committee, and Chairman Glass of the banking com mHtee, Mr. Lever was charged with composing the situation.
 The conference report on the ship purchase bill will be put through the house Monday and will be ready for the senate Tuesday. Republican sena- tors promise to renew their flibuster and the end of the siXty-third con gress probably will see the biu not passed
 Tonight republican senators gave a farewell dinner 10 their colleagues wno retire March 1.
 The Hollis rural credits bill which was fayorably reported today by the senate banking committee, is a com promise between proposals for gov ernmeut loans and the idea of pri- yate land banks
 It would establish q system of pri- vate national farm loan associations to make loans to farmers and issue bonds. The government would super wise the system. The committee re- ported the plan proposed took from European systems such features as were adaptable to. American coudt ti0us.

RAILWAYS AND THE PUBLIC.

1t is announced that a number of the eastern railroads are planning to cooperate in campaign of publicity and education throughout Pennsyl yania and New Jersey against the full crew" laws of those common- wealths. The railroads serving Kan sas are making the same kind of cam. paign against taxation alleged Go be excessive and unjust Publicity was successfully employed by Missouri carriers last fall against proposed legislation which they considered hurtful and discriminatory. Comment ing upon this direct appeal to public opinion, the Financial World suggests that in this way the carriers may touch the source of reason and truth In former years, 1t adds. they made the mistake of thinking their interests could be better looked after by employing lobbyists to attend the legislative sessions. The new spirit is one of getting together and reason out questions and problems so as to get at the truth. The railroads have to come back to the people"
 The change of railway policy hera noted has been worked out by de grees through a period of several years. It is unquestionably an i'm provement over the old policy to which the Financial World refers and which intensified the popular hostil. ity created by railway practices that now in so many cases, are prohibited by law In those days the railways did not lack publicity agents and "or- gans," but these rather prejudiced their cause than helped it. Popular knowledge or suspicion that such tao. tics were being employed under cover hampered the efforts of disinterested journals and statesmen who sought fair play for the railroads

SCHMIDT AND CAPLAIN
 IN NJ MANlGAL CELL
TWO MEN WHO WE'RE LONG SOUGHT REACH LOS ANGELES
 ON THE SAME DAY.

Los Angeles, Feb, 27-Cells in the county Jail which held Ortie E. Mo Manigal and the two McNamara brothers four years ago, were occu- pied tonight by M. A. Schmidt and David CapIan. alleged to be the last of the five men who actively parttci- pated in the conspiracy to dynamite the Los Angeles Times building in 1910.
 Schmidt arrived today from New York and Caplan from Port Orchard, Wash, where they were arrested.
 Both will be arraigned Monday or Tuesday on indictments charging them with murder in connection with the Times tragedy. Ortie McMani- gal, who won freedom by confessing and turning states evidence in the trial of the McNamaras in 1911, is ex- pected to appear as a witness against them
 Anton Johannsen, an organizer for the United Brotherhood of Carpen- ters and Joiners, was the first to call on the prisoners. After conference with Schmidt, Johannsen declared or ganized labor would support the ac- cused men with every available means.
 Schmidt sent a telegram today to his sister Catherine Schmidt, in Chi cago. that he would meet her at the San T7ra anpiep,, fair Tho tnpeeass ss. ara 4 addressed care of Clarence Darrow, wno was chief counsel for the Me. Namaras.

BUILDING STATISTICS.

The statistics just published of building activities in the leading American cities for 1914 are interest. ing They represent conditions exist. ing just previous to the war, for while they cover five months of that strug. gle, most Of the work had been signed up before actual hostilities. They, therefore, represent a more active building season than prevails today; and the figures will not be as large for the same period of 1915. Their principal interest lies in the compari. son between the several cities, as showing their growth of population and, generally, their business actv- ity.
 New York, as usual stands at the head of the column. with total ex. penditure of $1l5,902,546 for new buildings, but then it was a great year for Manhattan-and that town is not as active with it's big skyscrapers since the war upset it's commercial activities. Chicago, Boston and Phil adelphia follow in the orner named and then canes Detroit, which is now recognized as one of the most rapidly growing cities of the country, largely due to it's automobile and kindred in dustries. It spent last year $2S.207, S55 on new buildings, which ought t mean an increase in population O close on fifty thousand. San Fran cisco spent $2S,t77,563, but this i clearly not normal but due to tn preparations for its great exposition Columbus and Dayton make a goot showing, but that Is almost certainl, due to repairing the damages from tn flood of a few years ago. St. Paul Minn., is another town that report great building activity, it's per capit, building ranking among the highes without any very clear explanation O why this is so.
 The statistics indicate that tn rapid growth of the cities still cor tinues in America; and is greatest il the manufacturing sections.
