measure. The prealdent knew at once that
thb meeaure being placed before him waa
the Philippine tariff blU. A broad emlle.of
satisfaction overspread his face ant he
wrote bis name with a flourish, which was
not In evidence when he signed the general
tariff bill.
When the president arrived at the capltol
the sun was shining brightly, but soon after
he entered his room,- Just off the. senate
chamber, the skies darkened, heavy black
clouds rolled up and the electric lights Had
to be turned on. Peals of thunder and vivid
flashes of lightning came from the sky.
When members commented upon the brew
ing, storm, the president remarked that
they outrlft to be used to such manifesta
tions mm .the. conditloue eutslde were eom-i
parable, -to the storm which had continued'
between opposing tactions throughout the1
lami session. Apparently the president did
not take the storm aa an ill omen.
Farewells were said and representatives
from nearly every state had extended their
Invitations for the president to visit them
during the Bummer, when aome one -Announced
that the hour of adjournment was)
near at hand,
"I must be going, for we are off to
Beverly tomorrow," said the president.
He left the capltol at 8:60 o'clock to re
turn to the White House through, a driving
storm. However, the coverings had been
put on his big touring car and the presi
dent esraped a drenching, -
Busy Dajr in onsrreaa. .
The signing of the general tariff bill had
been preceded by a busy day both In the
house and the senate.
Meeting at 10 o'clock, the senate devoted
four hours to the final debate on the meaa
ure. At 1 o'clock the vote W&s taken .in
the adoption of the conference report, which
was agreed-to, 43 to U. ,
Following closely upon thla action the
senate adopted Mr. Aldrlche concurrent
resolution providing for a reduction of the
dutlea on varloua manufactures of leather
to meet the vlewa of western senators who
had been defeated In their efforts to obtain
protection for hides. - -
Henator McCumber's resolution providing
additional rebate regulations for the bill,
amended at the Instance of Senator Mo
Laurln to Include a provision for free cot
ton bagging, was adopted without division.
After this aotlon there remained nothing
for the senate to do except,, to await the
signing of the measure. Senators Aid rich
and Daniel were appointed a committee to
wait on the president. In conformity with
the custom of Informing the chief executive
that congress had concluded its -business
and waa ready to adjourn If he had no
further communication to make. Six o'clock
waa agreed upon by the two houaea as the
hour for final adjournment.
Closing; Seenes in Senate.
Senators loitered about un.ttl the arrival
of that hour. Democrata and republlcana,
regular and Irregular, formed little 'social
groups with no Indication of hostility. A res
olution offered by Mr. Culberson expressing
the appreciation of the senate for the able
and Impartial manner In which the vice
president had presided over the sessions ot
that body, was adopted.
In especially happy language Mr. Sher
man thanked the senate for the courteous
treatment which had been extended toward
him at all times. His life In the senate,
he said, had been made a continual pleas
ure by the consideration that had been
shown him at all times. ,
Concluding his remarks by wlahlng the
senators a happy return to their homes, he
declared the extraordinary session of the
Bixty-flrst congress adjourned "without
day,"
A burst of apslause was accorded" the
vice president a he laid down the gavel
of his authority, and at S:M p. m.. two min
utes In advance of the time fixed, the sen-,
ate adjourned sine die. -l-"t
Honrs of H .
With Its members nearly exhauated from
the heat and the arduous labor of the
last four montha, the house of representa
tives devoted the last day of the special
aesslon to perfecting the tariff bill and
transacting a mass of routine business
Cpankar Cannon announced hie committee
appointments and they were received with
varying degrees of satisfaction.
The concurrent resolution amending the
leather schedule of the . tariff ' bill was
adopted without a dissenting vote after
It had been 'discussed for little, over half
an hour. ' .' - - r '
No such good luck, however, befell the
McCumber-McLauiin resolution, revising
the drawback provision and plaolng cotton
bagging on the free list, which had pre
viously been adopted by the senate. On
the claim of Chairman Paytie that It was
not In order, It was consigned to the com
mittee on ways and means. ' ' '
It wui but a few minutes before I o'clock
when Mr. Payne's resolution, fixing p.
m. aa the hour for adjournment sine die,
waa adopted. . ;
While the committee appointed to notify
the prealdent that -the house was ready
to adjourn waa performing tha duty there
waa -such an exodus of members from the
chamber that the attendance : dwindled
away to a mere corpora r a guard. -
A -half, hour remained before the' ap
pointed hour of adjournment an the time
was dragging ao heavily that by dlrroHon
of the sneaker lite hands of the clock were
set ahead twenty-five minutes. Before ad
journing the house Speaker Cannon, with
the members standing with their hats" In
their hands, made a neat speech. In -which
he thanked them for their services during
the special session, t'pon Its conclusion
he got a round of applause from ' both
sides.
Speaker Cnnnoa's gpeeeh.
The speaker said:
' "I desire to thank the membership of
the house of representatives for efficient

aervtoe during thla special .session of con

chosen representative f the great body of
the people come together with varying In
terests, with virile cArtstttuenelee. that
they should disagree aa to the proper poll-
elea that hould govern the enactment of

Compromises. .Legislation Is impossible ex

jority cannot agree with compromise.
"The majority la responsible from time to

but" there is one good thing about repre

Senator Brown, as he stood, grip In hand,

respondent: "The president won where he
lost In the senate. He. gained In the con
ference the things that we were striving

will recommend a revision of these sche

free oil, the reduction on lumber, pulp and

episode connecting- Ftanferd -White with
two young women, whom, It la alleged, he
tried to ruin. ; .
Both these women allowed the use of
their names.. On was Mies .Mae- McKenale,
n actreaa, who appeared several times at
the trials with Evelyn Thaw, the othera
name waa ' a1ven as ; Sue' Parker. From
Miaa McKenale thawa attorney had ob
tained ra note which .figured in. the trials
as the "mushroom" letter. White was reD-
reaented as the author. It was read In
court today, it waa concerning this letter
that Mlas'McKes4e;haTl: said; according
to Tiaw tbat ,ber father -evould fctu both
her and "White if he had seen the con

Mr. Carvalho testified as to the affidavit
which he said Bue Parker made, .ascrib
ing an alleged attempt of White "to ruin
her when she first came to New "York as
a young chorus girl. In addition he pre

berore the first trial for 500. 'The letters
were not read today. '
Thaw- Tells of White.
It waa at the beglnrrthg- df the afternoon
seaaton that Thaw took the atand. Then
the New Tork district attorney aeemed anx
loua to let him tell all he knew, and he
led him through one aordld story after
another, evidently with the hope that tho
witness' palpable eagerness to talk on this
theme would show Justice Mills that he
waa Insane on the subject.
And Thaw was' eager to tell. The words
fairly trlped over each other as he ran on.
This thing I am going to tell you now
said he, referring to one of hla narrativea,
anecteo me Very seriously at the time.
Continuing, he described in detail the al
leged experience of a girl, whom he said
White tried to wrong when she waa but 1.
He said that after-winning her confidence
by a display of frYendahip, White lured .the
gin to ma place on Twenty-fourth street,
i-w i urn. in grn escaped through a
luoky chanoe. heaal and later obtained a
large aum of money from. White under
threat of a suit. After that, he continued
White had the glr 'boycotted so that for
several yeara she . eoi)1d noJ obtain any en

their prices and the figures today are
Prohibitive except for persons possessed
of ample means. The strikers themselves
are living practically on fish. Thousands
of them are camping out, some In tents
buy many without shelter on the shorrs
of Lake Halar and the Islands of the Ar

angling. The authorities have taken charge
of the milk supply of the city and soldiers
are distributing milk-In limited uuantltica
and supervising the sale from milk care
at the railroad stations. The deliveries of
Ice have ceased. This Is especially try
