TENN. SUFFRAGE
 ACTION REVERSED
Lower House of Legislature Votes to Reconsider
 Ratification.

NASHNlLLE,,. Tenn, Sept. 1.-The lower house of the Tennesse Legis- lature late yesterday voted to ex- punge from the House Journal all proceedings of August 23 with re- ference to action on the National Woman Suffrage Amendment except the roll call and the point of order raised by Speaker Walker that no quorum was present.
 It then adopted by viva voce vote motion to reconsider it's action ratifying the suffrage amendment after which a motion to non-concur in the action of the Senate ratify- ing was passed by vote of AZ to "A, twenty members not voting.
 The Houses action came immed- lately after the first quorum since August 20 had assembled.
 Leaders in the Legislature today held conflicting views regarding the probable effect of the reversal. Anti suffragists refused to say whether an attempt would also be made to have the Senate reconsider.

Engineers Corps Preparing Estimates and Report on
 Improvement of Narrows.

That steps may be taken shortly toward preliminary survey work witt view of deepening Wrangell Mar rows to accommodate the needs ol present and future shipping is indi cated by advices received from Petersburg. The Rivers and Harbors Act of June 5, 1920 provides for an examination of the Narrows to de termine the relative advantages and practicability of the Improvement as compared with the improvement oi Dry Straits as recommended in House Document 6S, Sixty Fifth Con gress, First Section.
 Lieut.. Col. J. w. Woodruff Engin- ger Corps, U. s. A, in a recent letter to Mayor T. s. Elsmore of Petersburg, said the duty of making the report and estimates of the i'm. provements has been assigned to his office and asked Mayor Elsmore to assist him by giving his views on the matter
 Mayor Elsmore in his reply pointed Oul lHtI duFdHldSeS lD De ODldllei by the work in particular from a Petersburg standpoint, and the bene- fits to be derived by shipping in general. He called attention to the fact that if the channel were deep ened, larger ships that now take the outside passage would go through the Narrows and make Petersburg a point of call He also said that the time now lost by vessels waiting for the tide would be eliminated if the improvements were carried out.
 Mayor Elsmore gave several reas- ons why, in his opinion, the improve ment of Wrangell Narrows had a dis tinet advantage over the expenditure of money for dredging operations, which it has been proposed would be made into steamer channel to supplant Wrangell Narrows.

He declared the Democratic campaign organiza- tion had prepared no budget but that bureaus were pressing for in formation regarding their allot- ments.
 Sinister Influences"
 The witness said the year book being published by William Barnes of New York was the only example to his knowledge of the sinister influences backing the Republicans alleged by Gov Cox.
