particular rule of the Senate.
Would Force Adjournment.
1t was at this point that Senator
Wheeler laid down the barrage on the
transaction of any other business by
the Senate while the court bill re-
mained the unfinished business. Only
by an adjournment of the Senate,
which would begin another legislative
day, would it be possible to get any
thing done if Wheeler sticks to his
ground.
Before the parliamentary debate
arose Senator Logan was trying to
continue his speech in support of the
compromise court bill which he had
begun yesterday.
Senator Black of Alabama, after
reporting by unanimous consent an
amended wages and hours act, ex-
pressed hope that his bill, farm
bill and as housing bill. all OF which
were in accordance with pledges OF
the Democratic platform of 1895,
would be enacted into law at the pres
ent session.
Burke interrupted, asking Black

whether he did not think it would be
advisable not to pass bill which was
outside entirely of the Democratic
platform. He had reference to the
court bill
Black replied that he considered the
court bill within the Democratic plat
form.
SO I believe in going on with it
! fllibuster or no filibuster," said Black
What language does the Senator
find in the platform pledging the
Democratic party to support this cour,
bill?" asked Burke.
Here Senator Logan took up the
battle by saying that in his opinion
the Democratic platform did cover the
court bill. since it promised to give
relief in legal way, and if that were
not possible, through a constitutional
amendment
Has the Democratic platform any

the membership OF the Supreme
Court?" interrupted Wheeler. "Or
has 1t anything in 1t proposing to add
new members because of the age OF
sitting justices?"
Il didn't say that" replied Logan
But I insist that this measure is
within the meaning of the platform.
Wheeler started another line of
questions:

new men on the bench so as to change

debate.
Pittman held that no Senator could
yield to another except for a question
without losing the floor He read, too
the Senate rules which says that no
Senator shall speak more than twice
IN one day on any one question.
The administration counts on this
rule to head off a prolonged filibuster
Plttman said that he was prepared to
rule that 'one day" meant one legisla-
tive day. BY the method of recessing
from day to day and not adjourning
the Senate maintains the fiction that
q long string of days may be one legis-
lative day.
Pittman said he would not rule on
that point at this time. The opposi-
ton will challenge such ruling and
an appeal from the decision of the
chair is debatabe.

DR.. Emil Ferdinand Hirschbereer
contributes the following interest
ing story Of sensational devel-
opment in Great Britain: "On the
outer wall of the Fleet STREET branch
post Office in the newspaper GEN.
ter Of London there is an auto
matte stamp-vending machine for the
convenience OF the public after office
hours. But before this mechanical
sales agent was placed in use it was
tried out at the factory and by the
post Office department and. in order to
save real stamps, rolls Of adhesive
paper of the size Of regular stamps,
but lacking denomination and in
scription, were employed in the tests.
The dummy" rolls showed rectangle
inclosing a green oval-shaped color
spot looking very much like poached
egg. And, by mistake. few OF the
trial rolls remained in the machine
when it was installed in Fleet street.
The public regarded the monsters with
establishment at first, then decided
that they must be new variety Of
postal issue, affixed them to mail and
posted them. There was nothing for
the postal authorities to do but accept
the make believe" like reg
ular stamps, they had been paid
for! So they went through the mails,
doing ordinary postal duty.
THE trial rolls, as it happens, were
not exactly new. They had been
used in the mobile automatic postal
Stations sent out through the
country to demonstrate to the public
the utility of such inventions. But
they had been given away, not sold
Spectators, however, heard Of their
rural distribution and fastened to
buy them up from all who had re-
ceived and preserved them. The
post Office officials accepted them on
cover for a few days, since they had
no proof that they had not been
purchased in Fleet street. Meanwhile,
all rolls not released were recalled,
and the stamps mutilated with a
color brush to destroy their value to
collectors. Also, plain white paper
was prepared for further demonstra-
tons.
But the damage was done. Mint
