Escambia river, at Molino and put 1t

to show cause why these approaches
are not constructed and the bridge
put in use. He stated that accord

the bridge had remained in this con

The letter was inspired, according
to statements therein, by petition

No action was taken in the mat

However it was stated that a letter OF
explanation of the position OF the Es-

will be prepared and addressed to the
governor.
The bridge. erected by the Escambia

board, complications concerning boIin
dry lines between the two counties at
this point have arisen. There is also
the necessity of constructing mile or
more of road through the swamp, on
the east side of the river, before the
bridge can be used.
1t Is understood that the question
has arisen also as to whether this
road, all or in part, should be con-
structed by Escambia or Santa Rosa
county. In the meantime the ESc9m-
bia county commissioners have no.
seen fit to complete the approach TO
the bridge on the west bank of the

SEN ATOR LEWIS

Gives Notice He Will Not RetrA1
to Washington-COngress
Speed in Midnight Session.

Washington, March 1.-Republiean
senators in a conference tonight failed
to reach an agreement as to their
course on the victory loan bill, which
administration leaders called up in the
senate late today, in an effort to bring
differences over it's legislation to an
issue.
Some Of those attending the eo.fsr-
ences said the majority Of the ssna-
tors were opposed to q fiIIibueter on
the bill. Many Of the minority load
ers however, were sa:d TO have viGor-
ously favored obstructive tactics.
The motion Of Senator France. OF
Maryland, to fiiiihuster against the
loan wa, defeated by '15 to ~, -it was
stated, with many senators refraining
fron, voting. Sherman, OF lllinois,
left the room in the midst Of ths con-
ference and told newspaper mon he
had given notice, that because Of the
evident disposition mot to force an
extra session and call the presidents
bluff" he was disposed not TO return
to Washington after March q.
The net result Of the conference. ac-
cordinq 30 the republicans, was that
several senators who favor the fill
buster were in a position to proceed,
but without the formal approval Of a
party council. Other republicans de-
cIared they would not be q party to
obstructive tactics and on the contrary,
would assist the Democrats in passing
