Albany, March Is.
The Senate early this morning after
a hot debate passed five of the Lock.
wood housing bills. This was during
an all night session after it had beer
agreed that all the Lockwood bills
would go over until tomorrow. The
bills are:
Striking from the law the power
granted the Superintendent of In
surance to extend beyond 1926 the
time during which life insurance
companies may dispose of their
stocks. Such disposal was first or
dered in 1906 by the Hughes COM
mittees and has been extended from
time to time.
Making all companies other than
life and especially fire insurance
companies part with all their stocks.
This is aimed especially at the Con-
tinental and Home Fire Insurance
companies.
Requiring all savings banks to
invest 60 per cent. of their future
investible funds until 40 per cent.
of their funds have been invested
in first real estate mortgages.
Enabling New York city, through
amending its charter, to take over
the subcontracts where the principal
contractor has defaulted.
Giving mutual insurance COM
panies the right to enter the cas-
ualty field IL they provide safe
guards. It enables the mutuals TO
enter the rating bureau from which
they are barred.
The passage of these bills In the Sen.
ate had been expected. They must nov
go to the Assembly. The Lockwood
committee and Samuel Untermyer, WHO
is leading a last ditch fight, are hopeful
that these and several Of the other i'm
portant measures will be enacted.
The passage or the bills compelling
insurance companies to dispose of their
stocks and to put their money into real
estate is decided victory for the Lock

The promoters Of the bonus raid on
the public Treasury and business of
the country again have been compelled
to change their plans for "jamming"
It through the House of Representa-
tives.
Instead of bringing up tie IS, 5,000.-
100000 insurance certificate bonus bill
under suspension OF the rules next
Monday, Representatives Fordney and
Mondell will resort to the Tammany
method of making a new rule to carry
out their purpose
Consequently the bill will not be
acted on Monday as originally planned,
but on Tuesday, when the Committee
on Rules will bring in hand picked
proposition that will apply the gag"
most effectively and prevent amend
ment of the measure.
The change in the program OF
Messrs. Fordney and Mondell, who
purpose to ignore the platform of the
party, the advice of the President and
titular leader of 1t, the certain opposi-
ton Of the Senate and the cverwhelm-

been caused by tie attitude OF Speaker

Franklin Prince of New York, secre-
tary Of the American Society for
Psychical Research. made public to-
night his report on the mysterious
happenings which he has been investi-
eating at the home OF Alexander Mac
Donald near Antigonish.
Dr. Prince was impelled to take up
the inquiry by stories told by mem
bers Of the Macdonald family-stories
of "ghost slapping" and fires that burst
out on fiat walls and threw weird
lights. of the terrorizing of horses and
persons, not to mention detective
and reporter, and of strange force
that ripped great iron hitcting rings
right out of their places in the Mac
Donald barn.
He spent the better part of week
at the farm. He now reports that

ter of the haunted family. was tie

tanned in the following resume OF his
experiences at the farm:
ANY matter of the kind which

noised abroad throughout the country

and manner of their operation, then

The bonus members who have shut
both their eyes and ears to all argu-
ments and protests against the raid
predict it will require only two days
to dispose of the measure after II has
Ieen taken up, and there ls little rea-
son to doubt their prophecy or intent.
The fact is the bonus members have
reached the boastful stage. The ma
iority OF them openly declare they
have established their right TO dictate
the policy of the party and have been
able to keep their forces intact. despite
the opposition of the President and
other leaders.

GnIett's Attitude Defined.

The Speaker has taken his place
beside. the President, the members or
the Cabinet ami the Senate leaders,
who believe the passage of a bonus
bill under present conditions will he
rebuked at the November elections.
The Speaker. who is in Florida with
President Harding, has caused 1t to be
known that he Will not be a party to
the gag rule program decided on by
Messrs. Fordney and Mondell. With
out his cooperation the measure can
not be taken up under a suspension OF
rules
With that outlawed along with
every previous bonus venture, Messrs.
Fordney and Mondell will instruct the
Committee on Rules to bring in a spe-
cial clause which will give to the bo-
nus bill the right OF way. The Com
mittee on Rules win do as the Repub-
lican bosses of the House order.
The Speakers attitude incensed
some of the bonus advocates to such
an extent that they discussed the ad-
visibility Of Clipping his wings" as
some Of them described it. They even
talked Of circulating "round robin
urging his removal, but the suggestion
vas not taken seriously and It was
dropped for the time being at least.
A large majority Of the members
are In favor Of any kind OF a bonus
bill that will permit themselves and
their associates to square themselves

cal influence is feared It is expected
the new rule will deny the members
the right to offer amendments and
