FEDERAL JUDGES BILL
FAVORED BY COMMITTEE
Action of Committee IMAM
imOuS, Bill to Be Pressed
in the House
BY RALPH SMITH.

WASHINGTON, Jan. 26.-The admin
istration bill authorizing the president
to appoint additional federal circuit and
gencies was reported favorably yesterday
afternoon by the house committee on the
judiciary. The vote in the committee
was unanimous and Chairman Webb
promises to push the bill to an early
passage in the house.
A similar bill, sponsored by the admin
istration and introduced in the senate
by Senator lIoke Smith, already has
been favorabIy reported by the Judicial
ny committee of that body.
The department of justice, as has been
noted in these dispatches, is heartily in
favor of the legislation and is cooper
ating with Senator Smith and Congress-
man Webb in their efforts to secure
it's enactment.
Concerning the Cummins resolutions
for an investigation of the incapacitated
federal judges and means looking tc
their removal from office, Senator Smith
explained today that he is opposed to
removing federal judges who have reach
ed the age of seventy years and who are
unable to substantially discharge theil
duties. He thinks the administrator
hill for the appointment of additional
judges in such contingencies meets the
situation and he may he relied upon t.
oppose steps looking to the removal
without salary of judges past the age
of seventy years who are incapacitated
He thinks the Cummins inquiry should
deal exclusively with federal judges I'M
der the age of retirement who are una
BILE to substantially perform their du-
ties.

BERNSTORFF REACHES
A NEW AGREEMENT IN
THE LUS|TAN|A CASE
His Proposal Is Acceptable to
Lansing. and Negotiations
viii Probably Be Closed If
Berlin RatifieS It.
nv Associated Press.l

I WASHINGTON, Jan. 26.-The Lusi-
tania agreement was redTafted today
by Count Won Bernstorff. the German
ambassador. and Secretary Lansing to
represent the views of the United
States. and was forwarded to the Ber-
lin foreign office. Word of whether the
German government will accept it in its
present tentative form is expected in
about week
The last proposal from Germany was
unacceptable to the United States be-
cause il did not admit full liability
for the lives of all the neutrals lost
in the destruction of the liner, al
though the German government agreed
TO pay as a matter of friendship to
the United States. This government
contends that the claims should be paid
as a matter of law and of right.
If. as IS intimated today, the new
draft is fully acceptable to the United
States, there is reason Tor believing it
will be acceptable TO Germany, because
Count Won Bernstorff is known to be
acting under wide latitude conferred by
the government for the negotiations.
The ambassador spent some time talk
ing with the secretary and then before
leaving the state department building
spent some time debating to one of the
department stenographers a document
which he took with him to the German
embassy.
II was understood that such changes
as the United States wants made in the
proposed agreement were set out in the
document the ambassador prepared to-
day. 1t now awaits the APPROVAL of the
German government. The next step in
the negotiations is not expected to be
taken before a week at least and in the
meantime the ambassador will hear
from his government
IL was made known i'm official quarters
before the conference took place that
the last German proposals were unsat-
factory and that the United States was
pressing for a full disavowal of the sink
ing of the liner with the loss of 10
American lives.
The United States, it was authorita-
lively stated today, insists upon
holding the German government to "a
strict accountability for the loss of
American lives and desires that the Ber-
lin government admit, in effect that it
is liable according to law for lives of
neutrals lost in the commission of an
alleged act against a vessel of the en-.
envy.
TeutOnic diplomatic circles were still
optimistic today regarding the outcome
despite the United States refusal to &C
cept the last proposal.

turbance was mixed with the waves
which battered the Oceanic Steamship
companys liner Sierra during a hurri-
cane three days out from Sydney, North
South Wales, according to report made
by the captain of the steamer, which
is in port today. Captain Koughan
said that a few hours before leaving
Sydney January it was reported to him
that seismographs there registered VIC

The Sierra, he said, must have passed
over the seat of the volcanic outbreak

KITCHIN WILL SUPPORT
WILSON'S SHIPPING BILL
Government Operation Feature
SubOrdinated and Measure
Gains Support
BY RALPH SMITH.

WASHINGTON, Jan. 26.-President
Wilson worked today with the Demo-
cratic leaders in congress, bringing or
der out of confusion and getting the
legislative program in coherent shape.
He will start on his stnmping trip to-
morrow with matters I'm much better
shape than they were at the beginning
of the week.
Having tackled the preparedness bust
ness and the tariff commission situa-
tion yesterday, the president today de-
voted himself mostly to the new ship
/ ping bill and the expedition of the an
nual appropriations bills.
The most significant development wac
the informal statement of House Leader
Kitchin that he thought he would be
able to support the administration ship
ping bill. In the last session Kitchin
was against the ship purchase bill be-
cause It provided for government oper-
alton. In the new bill, as now drafted,
he thinks the government operation fea-
ture is so subordinated as to be unob-
jectionable. Kitchin said this after a
conference with the president.
The bill. as it stands. provides for
the creation Of a shipping board with
authority to acquire cargo carriers ana
to lease them. In the event lessees can
not be obtained on needed routes, the
board itself is authorized to operate the
ships.
Notwithstanding the change Of front
by House Leader Kitchin, the shipping
bill seems doomed to defeat in the SEN
ate unless the president will agree to
eliminate the remotest possibility OF
governmental operation. The same CO.
terie of Democratic senators who OPP
posed the measure at the last session
of congress are adamant i'm their objec-
tion to the possibility of governmental
operation. Unless this feature is elm
mated entirely, the administration will
have to look to the Republicans for votes
enough to force it's passage through the
senate, and Republicans refused to rally
to its support last session.
1t was learned today that Senators
Clarke, of Arkansas; Hardwick, of Geor-
gia: Vardaman, of Mississippi; Hitch
cock, of Nebraska, and O'Gorman, Of
New York, have been in conference with
the white house i'm the hope Of compos-
ing differences as to this "subordinateu
fundamental" Thus far small progress
has been made in this direction and the
aforesaid Democrats may be expected to
vigorously attack the measure unless the
remote possibility of governmental oper-
alton is removed. They have informed
the president of a willingness to support
a bill providing for the purchase or
ships, to be used as naval auXiliaries
in time of stress, but to be leased ana
operated by private enterprises at other
times

glared ar the hostess. MT. Paddock studied his plate intently.
 sT for one,'' went on the Duchess of Lismore, "do not dance the tango or the turkey trot. Nor am willing to take the necessary steps to le2rn them.''
 A little ripple ran round the table the ripple that up to now had been tue exclusive privilege of Mrs. Bruce. That lady paled visibly. She realized that there was no coincidence here.
 'tIt seems too bad too" she said, fix ing the hostess firmly with an angry eye. Because women could have the world at their feet if they'd only keep their feet still long enough"
 It was the turn of the duchess to start, and start she did. AS one who could not believe her ears, she stared at Mrs. Bruce. The "wittiest hostess in San Marco" was militantly under way.
 Women are not what they used to be- she continued "Either they are mad about clothes, or they go to the other extreme and harbor strange ideas about the vote, eugenics, what not. In fact the sex reminds me of the type of shop that abounds in a small town-;its speciality is dry goods and notions"
 The duchess pushed away a plate which had only that moment been set before her. She regarded Mrs. Bruce with the eye of Mrs. Pankhurst face to face with prime ministe-.
 I've are hardly kind to our sex" she said, "but I must say I agree with you. And the extravaganza of wom- en! Half the women of my ac- quaintance wear gorgeous rings on their fingers, while their husbands wear blue rings about their eyes,"
 Mrs. Bruce's face was nvid. : Madam she said through her teeth.
 What is it?' asked the duchess sweetly.
 They sat glaring at each other. Then with one accord they turned to glare at Jack Paddock.

POOR COUNTING.

The slowness with which election returns came in after the voting of Nov. 7 emphasizes the idea that a great many people are not good count CTS. It would seem simple matter for group of men to take a few hun dred ballots, classify. count, and tabu- late them, and get the footfngs in a comparatively few hours. But there have been thousands of precincts this time where it took as many days to get the totals as it should have taken hours.
 As has been remarked before, some of the states have this work care fully sysematized and they get their returns in few hours. In others the counters muddIe along for days. Ap- parent1y they make mistakes so that the total of the number received by the several candidates does not equal the total of the votes cast. So the counters have to go over and over the different punches of ballots, trying to locate the errors.
 There are great many people who cannot count and add simple sums accurately. Often they are well edu-
 
 lack concentration of mind. Their at- tention drifts off to other things and soon they are emitting a number or sounting something twice.
 Many people get nervous and hur- ried over any such work as counting or simple arithmetic Probably many ballot counters, trying to get through their work in a hurry, will count two ballots as one. They worry their per- p1exed heads, while the crowds around the bulletin boards and the politicians and candidates big and little are curs- ing the tardy work of compiling the figures.
 It is the same way when the ma- jority of people have any sums or fig uring to do. They hurry and fail to concentrate and spend three times as much time on it as should be neces- sary for careful and methodical peo- pie.

There in the open the newest society dances should rise to offend the soft southern sky.
 Being a good general, the hostess was early on the scene, marshaling her forces. To her there came Cynthia Meyrick, radiant and lovely and wide eyed on the eve of her wedding.
 How sweet you look, Cynthiar said the duchess graciously. ''But, then, 1onr hn of what becomes you"
 T have to look as sweet as I can, 2 replied the girl wearily. "All the rest of my life shall have to try and live up to the nobility"
 She sighed.

As for American women, nothing ever happens-the hedges bloom in neat lit tie rows-the trees blossom-theyr re bare again. Cynthia, sometimes I've been in state where I'd give ten years of my life just to hear the rattle of an elevated train.''
 She stood looking down at the girl an all too evident pity in her eyes.
 "It isn't all it might be, fancy. mar rying into the peerage," Cynthia said
 My dear," said the duchess, "wher you introduced that brother of Lor( Harrowby's this afternoon-that big splendid chap who said America looked better than title to him-I could hay, thrown my arms about his neck anG kissed him." She came closer to tht girl and stood looking down at her witt infinite tenderness in her washed ou eyes. Wasn't thcre-any American boy, my dear?' she asked.
 "I-I-hundreds of then," answered Cynthia Meyrick. trying to laugh.
 The duchess tirned away.
