Cairo, Egypt, March 23-(By A. P.)
The Egyptian parliament which
opened at ten o'clock this morning,
had ceased to exist by eight o'clock
this evening. The session was prob
ably the shortest in the history of
Egypt.
The collapse was considered a
striking victory for former Premier
Zagloul Pasha, who all along has
maintained that the results in the
recent elections afforded his oppon-
ents no justification for forming a
government.
The end came with dramatic sud-
denness. After Zagloul had been
elected to the presidency Of the
chamber, the house adjourned to re-
assemble at S o'clock. Zagloul pre-
sided, but not single member of the
ministry was present. The house had
elected two followers of Zagloul as
vice presidents of the chamber and
was proceeding to the election of
other officers when Premier Ziwar
Pasha entered. followed by his min
listers, who had been holding q coun-
Gil. Amid tense silence Ziwar read
a decree dissolving parliament. The
decree was greeted with vociferous
cheering by the Zagloulists.
Under the decree new elections
will be held May % and the new par
lament will be opened June l.

Western Wool
Men Urge Eastern
SHIPPERS Cooperate

Portland, Ore, Mar. 23-Interstate
commerce commission representa-
uves began hearing arguments today
Of western wool men who desire
lower rates and improved shipping
conditions Of their products to east
ern markets.
James A. Hooper, representing the
National and Utah Wool Growers
Associations, testified that last years
output Of wool from the II western
states was 144,00O,000 pounds. After
being scored this would shrink about
SO percent, the remaining 81 percent
being Of clean wool passed through
Portland and other Pacific ports in
1924 and an additional 27.000.OOO
pounds would have passed through
these ports for the Atlantic seaboard
last year If there had been privileges
of scoring in transit and through
negotiable bills of ladinS. the wit
ness said.
Another point made by the witness
was that ship space is not always
available as desired, so that a COM
bined rail and water rate of 81 as
against $3.50 a hundred pounds from
Portland to the Atlantic seaboard
overland would be advantageous If
other handicaps were removed.

all make 1t a pleasure to be Of any

portant and most sincerely hope that
they may be performed to the satis-
faction of all concerned"
General Pershing is the first to be
named OF the three members of the

ries. The Chilean and Peruvian men,
bers are still to be selected by their

Prompt action by President Cool
idge in naming the American member,
who will also be president of the COM

desire on his part as arbitrator that
there should be no unnecessary delay
in executing his award, which allowed
four months from March for the
naming of the commission.
Mr.. Coolidge is expected also to an

JUDGE MILDLY RAPS
MRS. .DENN|ST0UN
IN SUMMING Up

London, Mar. 23-"Heaven has no
rage like love to hatred turned, nor
He'll fury like a woman scorned."
These words Of Congreve were cited
by Justice McCardie, who is a bach
elor, in summing up today the evil
dence in the suit of Mrs. Ian Onslow
Dennistoun, against her former hus-
band. Lieutenant Colonel Dennis
toun, for money she alleged he Dor
rowed from her. There was tense
excitement in the courtroom as the
judge delivered his address.
Il have formed the view" said
Justice McCardie, at the commence
ment of his speech, that Mrs. Den
nistoun is one of the most adroit
and most ingenious witnesses l have
seen in 80 years, and if she invented
a claim against Colonel Dennistoun,
whether for maintenance or other
wise, she would be one of the dan
gerous women 1 have ever seen. She
has a quick brain, absolute self
composure, resolute will and Won
derful mastery of answer"
Referring to the alleged agreement
between Colonel Dennistoun and his
former wife, the judge said to the
jury: you are asked to believe the
vaguest agreement known to me
was made as definite legal bar
gain. Regarding Dennistoun, he
said his conduct was "gravely to be
condemned" and added:
His conduct discredits him in a
very great measure, but though a
man has been guilty of unmanliness
such as that, it might we'll be that
by reason of these very circumstan-
ces you ought to view the case with
greater care"
The courtroom again was damned,
mostly by women who were anxious
to hear what would be the reply of
Sir Ellis Hume Williams, counsel
for Mrs. Dennistoun, to the address
of Norman Birkett. Birkett on Fri
day had scathingly denounced Mrs.
Dennistoun as "heartless and a
freitress."
Sir Ellis, however, did not indulge
In any great vituperative fireworks
Contemplate creature" was about
the harshest reference he made to
Colonel DenniStoun. Referring to
the former wife's letters to Dennis
toun, counsel argued that seldom had
more suitable appeals been read
"Blackmail in intimidation and Den
nistoun has tried to intimidate Mrs.
Dennistoun," he declared
Sir Ellis scornfully spoke of Den
nistoun's weakness and pliancy."
Referring to the late Sir John Cow
ans liaison with Mrs. Dennistoun,
Counsel said it was incredible for
man to write as the colonel had done
1,s 4
to continue to have illicit relations
with another man.
IF anybody is going to throw
stones at her." exclaimed Sir Ellis,
1T should not be the hand of this
accomplice husband, who stood by
while she acted wrongly"
Justice McCardie shad not finished
summing up when court was ad-
journed until tomorrow.
