SENATE CANNOT
BREAK DEADLOCK
ON MARINE BILL
One Faction Fights TO Keep
1t Before Senate; Another
Wants to Bring Up Farm
erS' Aid Measure

Washington, Dec. 20. - Five
hours of debate and parliamentary
maneuvering in he senate today
served only to tighten the deadlock
which has existed for three days
between two opposing and almost
equal groups, one fighting to keep
the administration shipping bill be-
fore the senate and the other to
displace that measure.
Three separate and distinct ef-
forts were made during the day
to break the deadlock through q
unanimous consent agreement to
vote at q designated time upon the
pending motion to lay aside the
shipping bill and to take UP the
Norris agricultural financing meas
ure but during a. objection nulli-
fled an attempt After an unsuc-
cessful result OF the debate ran
far afield. ranging from q dis
cussiOn of the disposition OF the
Muscle Shoals to charges that
Ambassador Harvey at London,
through his recent statement ON
the European situation had en-
deayored to affect the cotton and
grain markets in the United States.
Shipping and agricultural relief
legislation were discussed at lesser
length and when the senate ad-
journed administration leaders
were frankly pessimistic over the
possibility Of vote within several
weeks upon the ship bill. General
belief was expressed that the
Christmas recess would come and
30 without a break in the struggle
for dominance between the two
groups.
The initiative in the effort to
bring the question involved in the
deadlock to an issue was made to-
day by Senator Jones, republican,
of Washington, in charge of the
bill, who proposed an
to vote at o'clock to-
day on the motion before the sem
ate. Unanimous consent was re-
fused by Senator Fletcher of Flor
ida, leader Of the democratic op-
ponents to the shipping legislation,
and Senator Jones thereupon pro-
posed a vote at 4 o'clock. This
was objected to by Senators King
Of Utah and Williams of Missls-
sippi, democrats.
Pointing out that the banking
and currency committee chairman
had predicted that rural credits
legislation might be expected from
his committee early next week,
Senator Harrison, Gomocrat, Mis-
proposed that a vote be
taken next Wednesday. Senator
Jones refused to assent to this after
the opinion had been expressed by
senators that agreement
10 the proposal would have the ef-
feet of preventing any action on
the shipping bill, in the meantime.
Many 100 per cent Americans
seem to be making an unpatriotic
choice between the flag and the
,lagon. Norfolk Virginlan-Pilot.

sibility and even 10 undermine
the discipline of the schools. The
matters of proper dressing for
girls and proper credits for boys
engaged in athletics were also
handled.

GET LAND
Ten Million Acres Still I'm
Cleared In Northern Part
Of the State.

Madison, WiS.-Few people are
aware of the work being done by
the State of Wisconsin in bring
ing in settlers from other states
and counties TO man the new
farms being opened in the nor
thern counties.
In his second quarterly report
for the fiscal year, Commissioner
c. p. Norgord, head of the state
department of agriculture, under
the direction of which the immi-
grafton work is carried on, tells
something about the activities of
the immigration division for the
quarter covered.
During the quarter, October
to December 81, inclusive, the di-
vision of immigration received
l,941 inquiries relating To agri-
cultural possibilities of Wiscon-
sin; 974 were from persons who
had not ben in touch with the di-
vision previously. During this
period 474 special publications in
Guiding soil surveys, county pam
phlets, etc, were mailed upon re-
quest; 1876 mailing packages con-
tanning literature on Wisconsin's
agricultural opportunities, land
clearing and potato production
were sent. In addition, 1892 fol-
low-up letters from various state
departments were mailed to in
curing home-seekers.
The director spent three days
each at Rock Island and Peoria,
Illinois, interviewing people in
that territory interested in farm
ing possibilities in this state. The
assistant director spent one week
at Minneapolis interviewing home
seekers at that point. Over 500
homeseekers who had been in
touch with this division were no
titled of a free personal interview.
At Minneapolis the Assistant Di-
rector showed motion pictures eX-
planning methods of opening and
clearing cutOver land and the de-
velopment of the dairy industry.
This division in cooperation
with the Agronomy Department,
College of Agriculture, maintain
ed an exhibit at the international
Grain and Live Stock Exposition
at Chicago. This division also
prepared an exhibit featuring
Women's Work in Wisconsin at
the Potato and Markets ExpOsi-
ton at Milwaukee. At both of
these exhibits a large number of
people registered to receive liter
allure on the agricultural Oppcr-
tunities of Montreal

TWO GAMES TO PLAY
Eagle River High Schools
aiLast Chance to HoldEFirst
Place on the Tournament.

Basketball enthusiasts will be
liven their last opportunity on
thursday and Friday of this week
to see the local highs in action
on the local floor this season. Ar
gonne is scheduled to play Thurs
day, and Laona Friday, before the
Woodman dance. In order that
the first string men may be in
tip top condition for the hard con-
test with Laona they will not az
pear against Argonne Thursday
unless needed. The probabele line
up against Argonne will be Dot
sen, center; Hebard and Lillrose,
guards; Zimpelmann and Ewald,
forwards. The expense of getting
Argonne here being relatively
small, the admission charge will
be Is and 25c. 1t is hoped that
every one will encourage the boys
by their presence on both nights.
The regular admission will be
charged on Friday. The Athletic
Association have given over to
Woodmen their regular source of
income after theFriday game and
it is hoped the public will show
their appreciation by swelling the
receipts of the games.
Crippled by the illness of both
Stein and Bent, the team played
like tigers against the husky Mat
toon five Friday. That they sure
played basketball even against
these odds is attested by the fact
that during the second half their
opponents were able to lead by
but one basket. During the sec
ond half Hebard played center po-
sition and Lill-ose took his place
at guard. Score by halves:

Motion to Sidetrack 1t for

WASHINGTON, Dec. 17.-Administra-
keep the shipping bill before the Senate.
Before the Senate when 1t convenes
after the weekend recess will be the
motion made Saturday by Senator Nor,
ris, chairman of the agriculture COM
mittee, to lay aside the shipping meas
ure and to take up his bill designed to
relieve agricultural distress through
creation of a Government capitalized
corporation to buy and sell farm prod
ucts.
The motion will be opposed by Senator
Jones. chairman of the commerce COM
mittee, in charge of the shipping bill.
and others and will be pressed by foes
Of the ship bill, including the almost
solid Democratic membership, by the
Progressive Republican group and by
others who believe action should be
taken without delay in the matter of
agricultural relief.
Both sides said to-day that they were
confident of success. Those supporting
the move to lay aside the shipping bill
and begin consideration of the Norris
measure said they would have at least
half a dozen more than a majority.
Those opposing the move said they had
made no poll, but were certain of enough
votes to prevent substitution OF any
agricultural relief from which there is
much dissent. such as they assert to be
the case with the Norris bill
Meanwhile the Senate banking COM
mittee will continue its hearings and
study of the various rural credits bills.
Its members hope to conclude the hear
ings Wdnsday.

CHICAGO HAS GONE
DOWN TO BEDROCK
Three Leaning Towers Lean
No More, for Foundations
Are Lowered.
WERE BUILT ON PILINGs
Silurian Deposit of Niagara
Limestone Permits More
weight in Structures.

CHICAGO, Dec. 17.-Chicagos three
leaning towers" skyscrapers built dur
ing the nineties. now are resting firmly
on bedrock foundations eighty feet below
the surface. The three big office build
ings. among the first in the skyscraper
class, originally were built on pile foun-
dations and when the piles settled they
were left noticeably out of plumb.
An inquiry disclosed that all three had
been lacked up while foundations were
continued down to the solid rock, and
that since the alteration was made there
has been no further settling.
Chicago is underlaid by solid silu-
rian deposit Of Niagara limestone. from
forty to eighty feet down. Over II is
loose deposit Of blue clay and other
material.
Some OF the first skyscrapers, follow
ing building methods then in vogue.
were erected on forests of piling, but
the foundations proved imsuited to hold
ing the immense weight of the big office
structures.
Chicagos building laws limit the
height Of office buildings to ESQ feet. 1t
is impossible. geologists at the univer-
sity of Chicago say. to pile up enough
weight within that limit to cause any
