 This measure is very similar to a bill which failed to pass during the last session of congress. The main difference between the two bills is that Shoots measure eliminates the provision, included in the former bill, for the sale of the coal lands. Un- der the measure now being consider ed, the coal lands are to be leased by the government for a certain num- Der of years. It is generally believed the committee will take favorable ac- tion on the bill and recommend that it be passed

CHICAGO, July 31.-P)-Uate Re port) The number of deaths. caused by the race riots now total thirty two persons, two dying this evening. The negro district is very quiet to- night only one or two disturbances being reported from that quarter of the town The presence of sixty-five hundred troops is having a good eff feet in calming the disorders.
 This evening the mayor requested the council to grant two thousand additional permanent police, stating that this number is necessary to in sure control of the situation and to forestall a resumption of the riots at any later date. Eighteen hundred special police are to be sworn in to- morning, these men to be used during this emergency only.
 COMPARATIVELY CALM
 CHICAGO, July 31.-(P)-Tho a few minor fights occurred in various parts of the city this morning, the situation may be termed calm for the first time since last Sunday night The clashes between the whites and negroes this morning were of no i'm portance and resulted in no one being killed.
 It is the opinion of the authorities that hhe soldiers ordered out last night have had the effect of quelling the riots, merely by thir presence in the worst districts. The troops are pa trolling a section of the town three miles square, where the greater par of the trouble occurred during the race war. The soldiers will not be relieved from this duty until k is evident that no more serious riots will occur.
 Tho the situation gradually grew worse, the troops were not ordered out by the governor until it was learn ed that the white men implicated in !ne race riots. planned to burn large section of the black belt. Knowing that such a fire would, no doub- threaten the entire city with destruc tion. the governor lost no time in or
 ring the soldiers to police the ne gro section.

END OF SEARCH
 FOR WINCHELL'S
 WIFE REPORTED
BODY OF MRS. AL. WINCHELL IS RECOVERED AND HUSBANDS PROMISE TO WIFE IS CARRIED OUTLOOK MONTHS TO LO- CATE REMAINS.
(Juneau Empire.)


 After months of persistent effort to secure the body of his wife who was one of the passengers on the Princess Sophia at the time it was wrecked last October, Al Winchell's perseverance was rewarded when Jack Donovan, diver for the Deep Sea Salvage Company, secured Mrs. Winchell's body yesterday. It was prot in last night with four other bodies as follows:
 Unknown woman, wearing dark blue or green silk dress and short fur trimmed reddish colored coat and large maple leaf breast pin and rough gold wishbone pin.
 Chinaman, unidentified member of Princess Sophia crew.
 Charles Lockhardt Queen, Vancou- yer, carried gold watch and $100.68.
 Dan A. Mcdonald of Flat, Alaska. Member of Pioneers of Alaska. Car ried $420 in travellers checks and gold watch and chain.
 Mrs. AL Winchell, Iditarod.
 The body of Mrs. Winchell was found outside of room forty on the saloon deck, and on the opposite side of the ship from her stateroom. It was reported last winter when divers were searching the Sophia for Mrs. Winchell's body, and the story was published, that her body had been located in her stateroom, room thirty five, with that of another woman. It was also said that it was impossible to secure the body without further as sistance because of the manner in which the berths had loosened and jammed against the door. Unable to open the door, the diver had broken the window, it was said, but was un- able to rescue Mrs. Winchells body. Mir. Donovan said that it was evident that some mistake had been made be- cause the window of room thirty-tive was intact, and that there was no one in the room.
 MT. Winchell arrived in Juneau from Iditarod as soon after the wreck Of the Princess Sophia in which Mrs. Wincheli perished as he was able to get here. He waited for days while search was being made of the snores neighboring the wreck, hoping would be that of his wife. Finally, when 1t was determined that the boat stIii renamed intact and could be searched by divers, he hired them 10 board the ship and search for Mrs. Winchell. After days of unsuccessful work, Mr. Winchell left for the south, satisfied that everything had been done that was possible at that time, but still anXIous to get more help. He ieturneu aDouL two months ago with the representatives, from the Deep Sea salvage company, and since they have DtCn NOl hlAS OA LIC WlCChy udo dC- con panleu them on each trlp to the sunken vessel hoping always that among the bodies they were recover Ing, lie would find that of Mrs. Winch. ell.
