TOE OMAHA DAILY. BEEi TUESDAY, MARCH . 20, 1007. .ii fir ' 111? T I fir I 10 noon Indicated It wai not ready even to talk about adjourning' yet. When the re qurst from the house for a conference " committee te fix the final date was called up It aroused considerable opposition, and An attempt was made to amend the motion to adopt It by directing the committee not to agree on a date until ordered to do so by the senate. This was voted down and the motion was lost by a vote of 8 to 18. Those who opposed fixing the date now did so on the grounds . It, is too iearly In the week and that action, should pot be taken until a few more of the Important bills are passed. Haas Lonfnnr to Adjourn. i House muinbci sat around without their eoats this afterncon and many of them looked longingly out of the window at the retn grass and showed signs of homesick ness. Whltham of Johnson became so Im pressed that he offered a motion which was adopted for the speaker to appoint a com mittee to confer with a sunate committed rf final adjournment. The spsuker ap pointed Whltham of Johnson, Vun liouf.cn of Colfax SbOd Farley of Hamilton. Wulnh - wanted the committee Instructed to mike haste slowly in selecting the final day, and talked Quite a b t cn this vubject be fore the committee was uppoir.ted. Then after the speaker had made him quit be cause there was nothing before the house, ' Hall of Chase thought the committee should attend to flxlug the date. The speaker bad to stop Hill for the same reason ha gave for making Walsh stop. During the afternoon the he use spent most of Its time passing bills on third fading and the way the members dug down Into the treasury was a caution. Seven or e!ghtf appropriation bi;is went through, though one was killed. This un fortunate one was by Carlln of Rock and it was to reimburse Brown exunty for th , trial of Fred. Hans some 16,700. i)ut the '180,900 for a women's building and other buildings at the state farm went through, even It it did get only fltty-four votes, and so ld the loO.OUO for the slat farm and the 114,000 for an officers' Hat at the Milford soldiers' home, and the appropriation for -the cottage and land for the Kea.rn In dustrial school. And so did the J-S.UU0 for a tuberculosis hospital at the Hastings asylum. It did take a call of the house several times to goj the required 67 votes to tack on the emergency clause, but that wss all. ... Blndlav Twine Plant Falls. The house refused to stand for the bind ing twine plant at the state penitentiary, which carried with It an appropriation of nnfeWMIN-SM. rt 1 "iilin ilniifi iTsninsTn' ; F ree. from Alcohol 1 Since May, 1906, Ayer's Sarsaparilla has been entirely free from alcphol.

The committee of the whole reported the bill back for In definite postponement and Qunckenbush of Nemaha made a fight to have It recom mended for passage. Hansen of Merrick, who has been rather quiet during the ses sion, opposed the bill vigorously and said he had handled penitentiary twine and It was not Satisfactory. A great many of the fuslonlsts lined up for the bill, and several republicans, but In the committee of the Whole It was recommended for Indefinite postponement, and the house on a roll call sustained the committee. The Omaha Deaf end Dumb Institute got , Its I20.0CO for a gymnasium building,- though several of the members seriously objeoted. When the senate anti-pass bill comes ttg in the house in the morning an amendment will be offered to provide that no railroad shall Issue a pass to any lawyer, doctor or political agent of any railroad. The lawyer doctor provision has been the one stumbling block In the way of getting the anti-pass bill reported favorably. The house has not figured out how these classes of men can be shut out of riding on passes and It seems to be the general belief that the luwycrs and the .doctors omployed by the railroads are the men the state convention was really after when it adopted the anti pass plank. Whether such an amendment will cany cannot be said at this time. ROITIMJ PHOCEKIJ1SG8 OF HOISE Appropriation Bills Belnar Bushed Throngs by Wholesale. (From a Staff Correspondent.) .

"There may. be a few small failures," Lord Rothschild continued, "but the re port that a big financial house' is In diffi culties or serious troubles are anticipated are mere inventions. . The London holders of American securities have been induced to sell through fear that President Roose velt contemplates taking steps toward na tionalizing the railroads, or at least enact ing legislation t,hat may curtail the roads' earning capacities. ... "For the same reason some German hold ers of American securities have been cell ing in London. Then, of course, there are great demands for money from all points, but I have, every confidence In the ability of the market, to bridge the difficulties.
