D'FLI.V. May . (Special. Little notice

ha ass umed hl duties. There n no
ciiril of honor to meet him at the quay on
hi arrival and escort htm to hi hotel. No
odmlrlng deputation waited on him to wel

hlm!f did not seem to expect any of these
formal'tles. He simply jumped Into a cab
and drcv. to an hotel and the next day
made hia appearance In a small room In
Dublin castle and began to govern Ire
land. 2t haa been popularly supposed that the
lord lieutenant or the chief secretary, or
perhap aven th. chief commissioner of
police or the general commanding the
Iriah district. n the real governor of
Ireland None of these highly ornamental
officials, however, ha half the real power
of Mr. Hewby. and Mr. Hewby wears
neither a uniform nor a cocked hat and
sword. Furthermore, he ha no title and no
influential connection. But he hold the
power of the rurse. and It 1 hi duty to

WASHINGTON. May .-At 4 this aft
ernoon the senate adopted the report of the
conferees of the two house of congTes
on the Aldrich-Vreeland emergency cur
rency bill by the decisive vote of 3 to 3
and thus was taken the last congressional
step necessary toward the enactment of
emergency currency legislation, the legis

well authenticated that Senator Jeff Davl
was on his way to Washington and would
be prepircd to assist the filibuster with a
two-days' speech, provided the objector

many of the senators had been In their
seats almost continuously since 11 o'clock
