Smntor Norrls Brown ad dresse the senate today In support of the constitutional amendment for direct elec tion of senators by the people. He Insisted that people have the right to vote on that proposition alone and not have it embar rassed by being coupled with any other amendment to the constitution. He took sharp Issue with Senator Rayner of Mary land, w ho insisted that while he is In favor of popular election of senators he aluo at the same time and In the same amendment wants the constitution amended taking away from congress the supervisory power It now has over the election of senators and representatives. Hayner Leads Discussion. Senator Rayner was the chief speaker, but the discussion was participated in bv Senators Bacon, Borah, Sutherland and others. It grew out of the Maryland sena tor's assault upon the Sutherland amend ment gluing congress Biich power to con trol the time and manner of holding sena torial elections as Is new possessed by It In the election of members of the house of representatives. The amendment Is giving the friends of the resolution their principal concern. It appeals to many of) the republican senators, but not to th'i democrats. The apprehension Is that It may be voted Into the resolution and In that event It Is probable that the provision as a whole would be defeated. A ma jority vote would be sufficient to adopt the amendment, while two-thirds would be necessary to Insure the success of the resolution as a whole. Both Senators Rayner and Rneon charged that the Sutherland provision would au thorise the use of federal agents at all the polls and while Mr. Sutherland ad mitted that such exercise of uuthorlty would be possible he contended that it would be Invoked only In cases of abuses.

HE SAYS INVESTMENT WILL FAY Steel King Points to Accurate Marine Charts Made by Yacht Carnegie aa tint Instance of Good Work. NKW YORK, Jan. 20. Andrew Carnegie today announced a girt of lin.iwn.oon to the endowment fund of the Carnegie Institution of Research at Washington. This brings his endowment to the institute up to a totak of J'.'i.OUO.WO. Coupled with the formal announcement was a declaration by Mr. Carnegie that the work of the Institution had cleared from blame the captain of a British ship who ran his vessel on the rocks, by prov ing that the British admiralty charts, by ; which the captain was guided, were two, or three degrees astray. The discovery of HO.ono new worlds by . Drof Male at the observutnry on Mi. Wil son. California, also was announced. j Mr. Ca.rni.gle hIko announced that a far i more powerful telescope than man has ever made Is now under construction for' the Mt. Wilson observatory. The hew telescope will have a lens forty inches In dlametir. Mr. Carnegie declares that "the. .whole world Is going to listen to the oracle on the top of Mt. Wilson and In a few years we shall know more about the universe than Calllleo and Copernicus ever dreamed of. I hope I shall ltve long enough to hear the revelations that are to come from Prof. Hale on Mt. Wilson. Mays Investment Will' Pay. in confirming a report of the endow ment, Mr. Carnoglo said: "The report is correct. They hail a large endowment before and this ten millions mskes the total of their endowment twenty-five millions but the Institution has al- I ready scored successes to Justify even that sum. I believe that the Institution In re search will repay tenfold in service to the world. "Doubtless you noticed In the telegraphic news of yesterday that the yacht, Carnegie, has Just reached Buenos Ayres. That yacht Is the first one ever built with bronze sub stituted for Iron: the latter deflects the magnetic needle and bronze' does not. The result Is that all former observations are Inaccurate. "The Carnegie is going over all the seas year after year, putting the world right. That one service will give ample dividends on the whole 135,000,000 In my opinion. "There Is scarcely anything that pleases me so much as the success of that little boat, the first of Its kind. "But this Is not all the Institution Is doing. It Is experimenting In Its physical laboratory on the rocks and analysing them and will soon be' ready to show a J formula for the making of Portland cement or concrete. Jt has foun the Ingredients necessary and that Invaluable material can be produced In any part of the world wherever the elements are found. Hitherto, aa I understand It, cement could only be made from certain comparatively rare de posits." Donation Is la Bonds. Mr. Carnegie's latest donation Is In bonds. The Institution was founded on January 2S, IKK, w hen Mr. Carnegie gave to a board of trustees UO.uuO.Ono in registered bonds, yielding fi per cent Interest. The purpose of the Institution In Mr.. Carnegie's words is 'in the broadest and most liberal manner to encourage Investi gation, research and discovery, show the application of knowledge to the Improve ment of mankind and provide such build ings, lsboratorles, books and apparatus as may be needed."

PIERRE. S. D.. Jan. . (Special Tele gram.) While the mail clerk strike situa tion this morning on the surface Is not Improved to any extent. It Is showing signs of reaching an adjustment. Several of the old clerks have been sus pended and called upon to surrender their bndgea and keys, and substitutes have been seutired. To do this it was necessary to go east on the Mississippi river for men. as the clerks at Aberdeen, liawanlen and St. Paul refused to supplant. The clerks were refusing to do extra duty, but t lie Indi cations are now that congressmen over the northwest are taking up the matter with the department, and an intimation has come to the clerks that If they will waive their lights in the Interest of discipline of the service, their troubles will soon he remedied. While this Intimation has come to them, up to the present no definite action has been taken In the premises, and their position up to the present Is that they will not concede anything unless the reinstate ment nf all clerks suspended as a result of he present trouble is Included In the question of adjustment. HURON, S. D.. Jan. . In compliance with request? from Senator Crawford, the striking railway mall clerks on the North western railroad between Tracy, Minn., and IMerro, S. !., held a conference here and signified their willingness to return to work and perform the extra duty re quired pending consideration of their grievance by the IVistoffice department at Washington. This action will defer a gen eral walkout by railway clerks over the northwest. The clerks declare that unless their demands for extra pay for extra labor Is granted a general strike will follow. The only organisation the clerks now have Is of a social character, hut steps are being taken to organize similar to other labor unions. Senator Crawford says he has been assured by the department that the clerks will have a hearing soon. ST. PAtl-, Jan. 20. That a wholesale re tirement from the railway mall service by the railway, mall clerks of St. Paul and Minneapolis Is probable Is Indicated In a series of resolutions adopted by the Rail way Mall Clerks' association of the Twin W'ltles and made public today. These resolu tions) which will be sent to the postmaster general and several members of congress, state that present conditions In the service are unbearable owing to the policy of re trenchment lnauguated by the Postofflce department at Washington. The action of the clerks Is a violation, of a rule of the department, but they declare the situation warrants a1 disregard of the rule.

The quiet that enveloped Capitol Hill to day was a marked change from the fever ish atmosphere that bus filled the legisla te halls here for the last two weeks. Interest in the contest for Fnlted States senatorship lay mainly outside of tiie as sembly chamber, where both branches of the legislature meet at noon for their third Joint ballot. The general belief was that there would be no "break" toward any one candidate until next week. Speaker Friable of the assembly said this understanding pre vailed when thirty or more members of both houses got leave to go home until Monday. It was expected that other legislators would be released from attending tomor row's session by the same process of pair ing. Owing to this absenteeism the result of today's ballot promised to show a reduc tion of fifteen voles or more in the total for William F. Sheehan, but since the al- benec of one republican fur every Sheelian man excused would reduce the majority required for election the actual significance of today's result must be estimated with this fact In view.
