WASHINGTON, July 1.-THE Old

senate tariff fight yesterday when II

NEW YORK, April 1S.-The ulti-
mate wearer having just finished
buying her new spring hat. dealers
are now busily engaged in buying
their summer headwear stocks. New
York is full of millinery buyers here
to attend the summer openings. The
activity of the buyers was strength
ened by the excellent results of the
Easter trade in nearly every section
of the country.
Cotton goods are in a much firmer
position in this market than they
have been for many weeks. Trading
is more active and prices are being
firmly maintained. The wooden mills
also are exhibiting more life, but the
silk mills are not yet increasing pro-
duction, although. demand is becom-
ing more apparent for the finished
products. Shoe manufacturers report
an increase of orders for immediate
delivery and the leather market has
benefited in consequence. The knit
goods trade is almost normal. with
sales slowly increasing.
Radio equipment is holding up the
trade in electrical equipment. Out
side of these radio sets, demand is
exceedingly dull. Builders hardware
is in brisk demand, as are mechanics
tools. and the entire building ma
terial market is rejecting new con-
struction, both in the city and near

The letter in part is as follows:
I'VE ask that Secretary Hughes of
the Department of State and Sec
retary Davis of the Department of
Labor. or their proper representa-
tives. be invited to appear before
this (Senate) committee SO that re-
sponsibility for Semonoff's admission
to the United States may be deter
mined:
That if the law governing such
cases be found to permit admission
of men of this character. without re-
gard for the wishes of the RESPONSE
BILE department head, that the law be
amended to prevent this in future;
THAT Semenoff should be deported.
not only because he is unfit to touch
American soil. but SO that all may
know that America will not counte-
nance acts of the character commit

BANKERS AID ORCHARDS.
Conference With Fruit Men to Open
Thursday at Staunton.
Special Dispatch to The Star.

oPeeiai dispatch 10 The Star.
STAUNTON, Va. April 1S-virg4nia
bankers and fruit growers who are
interested in the development of the
fruit industry in the valley section
have perfected arrangements for
what promises to be one of the most
interesting and profitable confer
ences ever held in the valley.
The horticulturists of Virginia have
from time to time met in Staunton
to discuss the problems relating to
the fruit industry and to display ap-
pie products. but never before have
the producers of this fruit had an
opportunity to meet face to face the
Norfolk, Roanoke. Lynchburg and
other Virginia towns and cities. and
also representatives of the great
banks of New York. Philadelphia
Baltimore and Washington, some of
which will be represented at this con-
ference.
Although orchards in Augusta
county have frequently returned
net income of as much as five hun
dred dollars an acre. the orchard in
dustry as such has outgrown the
original conception of its commercial
value. The object of this conference
is to prove the claims of Virginia
that her fruit-growing industry is
conservative business. and as such
entitled to the same credit considera-
tion as is enjoyed by other branches
of agriculture.
The first session of the conference
will be held in Staunton at 10 am.
Thursday, at the Augusta county
courtroom.
1T is believed that this conference
will contribute largely to the ad-
vancement of the interests of the
state of Virginia. All bankers of the
Cumberland Shenandoah Piedmont
district have been invited to partici-
nate.
