able to their cause Only three of its
members, Representative Rainey Of
Illinois, Senators Walsh of Montana

spoken for suffrage. it was declared,
while four, Senator Martin of Virginia,
Gov. Stanley of Kentucky, Senator
Pomerene of Ohio and Representative
Fitzgerald of New York, are against
it. The other two, Chairman Stone
and former Representative Palmer of
Pennsylvania, are believed to hold the
administration view of the situation,
which is for the Endorsement of suf-

amendment plank.
The subcommittee was declared by
democratic leaders to be inclined

about the same measure of indorse-

Supply, However, Is Increasing in
Local Markets.

While there has been little or no in
crease in the number of hard shelled
crabs being received here from the
lower Potomac. there has been a sub
stantial increase in the quantity Of soft
shelled. though receipts are still away
below the average. Yesterday the deal
ers at the wharf market reported having
received 300 dozen crabs, about twice as
many as had been received any day so
far this season. Not only has there been
an increase in theh number of crabs re-
ceived, but they are larger and in bet
ter condition than those received earlier
in the season. They sold from 40 cents
to 81 haunder, according to size.
Usually at this time in June soft and
hard crabs are being received daily
in large quantities. A few years ago
1t was nothing uncommon for a hun
bred or two hundred barrels of hard
crabs to be received on this market al
most daily. Now If all the dealers to-
gether receive thirty barrels the re-
ceipts are heavy. In consequence of
this shortage crabs have been selling
at fancy figures throughout the season.

REPLIES TO Criticisms
OF CHOICE Of HUGHES
Representative Mann Cites In
stances Where Democrats Nom
mated High Court Judges.

Minority Leader Mann took occasion
to criticisms which have been made by
democrats of the selection by the re-
publicans of justice of the Supreme
Court of the United States for their
presidential nominee, particularly the
statement given out by Speaker Clark
Mr.. Mann pointed out that the demo-
Gratis had not been slow to nominate
judges of high courts for elective Of
fee, and mentioned in particular Judge
Alton B. Parker of New York and
Judge Grey of Delaware, one of whom
was nominated for the presidency and
the other was balloted for in conven-
ton.
He told the House that Judge Parker
not only did not resign his position
on the bench in New York upon being
nominated. but that he called special
session of his court to pass upon I'M
portant cases. Judge Parker did not
resign as judge until August following
his nomination.
Holds Criticism Unwarranted.
THE republicans did not make any
criticism of the selection of a judge
of one of the high courts of the land
as the democratic nominee said Mr..
| Mann, land there was no reason then
| or now for such criticism
| Referring to the statement made by
| Speaker Clark criticsing the nomination
| of Mr. Hughes, Mr.. Mann said that
Speaker Clark had been appointed to no.
| tify Judge Parker of his nomination for
the presidency. and then he quoted from
Speaker Clarks speech on that occasion
! Speaker Clark commented at that time
! on the wisdom in selecting man for the
nomination for President who had made
a splendid judge in lone of the highest
courts in the land"
Both republicans and democrats alike
, laughed while Mr.. Mann was recalling
| the Speakers address, in 1904, when he
| notified Judge Parker of his nomination
