Constitutional Party aligned against
him in the House of Representatives,
sent members of that body back to
their homes before they had had time
to introduce a want-of-conhdence reso-
luton against him.
But even assuming that the Con.
stitutional forces emerge victorious
in todays battle of ballots, it does not
necessarily mean the fall Of the gov

CHESTER, Pa, April Estate
Fire Marshal G. Chal Port last night
announced he was still unprepared to
make a statement on the success of
his investigation Of the Eddystone ex-
plosion. A number Of witnesses were
heard yesterday and the report of his

Thirty additional claims were filed
with Referee William B. Scott, of the
WOrkmens' Compensation Board,
bringing the total to sixty seven.
The complications caused by the
identification of the corpse OF Ethel
McCracken by her mother after the
funeral of the supposed girl were still
unsolved last night. The mother paid
another visit to the morgue here TO
secure the body, but it will require
another day before the case is cleared
up.
An aunt Of the girl maintains the
corpse here Is not that of her niece,
Notwithstanding the Identification by
the mother.
