WA SHINQTON, Oct. l.-The A entire
conferenco report on the tariff- bill was
laid aside tor twenty-tour hours In the
senate today an the result ot a protest J
among democratic senators which resulted j
in me .-coiling ot a party caucus to go
over tho conference report before It
should rbe finally acted on In the senate.
Tho hurriedly called meeting assembled
at 11 o'clock, but when the senate met at
noon no progress had been made toward
a conclusion and the democratic leaders
agreed to lay the tariff bill aside. Tho
caucus will resume work at 3 o'clock this
aftarnoon.
The' so-called Insurgent forces, led by
Senator Jteed ot Missouri, who circulated
the caucus petition, Insisted that there
were many compromises and amend
ments agreed to by the conference com
mittee which demanded further study and
consideration by the democrats of the
renate before being finally written Into
th 'bill.
Airree to Delar Dill.
After an hour's discussion democratic
leaders determined not to try to force
the tariff bill through the senate today,
but to allow ample time for debate be
hind closed doors. Senator Pomerene's
.objection to the action of the conferees
In dropping tho ,$1.10 tax on grape brandy
nscd to fortify sweet wines- and Senator
Reed's criticisms of the decisions of the
i' conference comrriltteo on several lmpor-
tant tariff rates were tho chief points
brought up when the caucus met.
Senator Kern, the democratic leader,
and Chairman Simmons of the finance
committee expressed the opinion this aft
ernoon that tho tariff bill would be
taken up tomorrow In the senate. The
controversy over the proposed cotton fu
1 tures tax may further prolong the de
liberations of the dernocratlo f -caucus,,

Senator SlmtnOns, for the -conferees;

May KmlHirrui Conference.
The threat pf republicans. Including
Senators La Follette and Penrose, that
they might try to smd- the conference
report back to the conference committee
as s6on as it was taken up- lri the senate,
further tompllcated the situation. It
was feared that a movement' of that kind,
If It received the support ,of Any. demo
crats, might be sufficient to Issue ln-
strhetldua tnat would erabarraSs the con
ferees. , Democratic members of the finance
committee were called together hurriedly
and the new complications were taken,
ip. Parliamentary clerks of the senate
were also summoned, so that the demo
cratic leaders .might know just what
Itand to take lri floor tactics.
"We are simply Insisting that the sen
ate shall have sufficient time to study
and familiarise. Itself-with the conference
report on the tariff bill," said Senator
Beed.
.Many things were put In. and taken
out of the bill by the conference commit
tee and we demand the right to become
familiar with the scope of the bill. It
(s the same attitude taken by us towards
currency legislation."
Senators who signed the petition were
Reed, O'Oorman, Sbafroth, Myers, Salts
bury. Owen, Hollls, Hitchcock, Pomerene
and Martlne.

Gray said that Colwell had reiuested
that the account be given a number and

because he did, not wish it known that he
was doing business with Gray's 'firm.
Colwell, who Tiad acted 'as'pilvato secre

It will embarrass us greatly to be com

time," he said. "We will deal with that

Decrease in Year
.1 1
NEW YORK, Ooh L-Buslness on tho
Stock exchango for the nine months ot
tho calendar year ending yesterday
showed a marked falling off In com
parison with the Corresponding period of
1912, despite' the .Steater activity and gen
eral price advances ot the last few weeks.
000,090: These totals represent a decrease
of about 31,000,000' shire and 'tlW.OOO.OOO
bonds compared with the same' period last
year.
To 'an'' extent, 'however, these figures
aro considered Misleading for the reason
that .under the policy ot reform In
augurated! by the exchange early In the
year, thMdally operations ot the last tew
months are- believed to represent mora
actual business than was transacted In
former years, when manipulation often
was ot a flagrant-character.
Brokeri view the qutl.ook aa more
hobefu than some months ago. ifhls Is
Indicated-In the partial recovery of tho
price of Stock exchange seats, from their
low price of the mid-year. Conservatism
Is still the key note, however, and that
attitude may be expected to continue
pending a better understanding of the
tariff and currency bills and 'other po
tent 'factors. ,

Lehigh Valley Coal company, which ,1s,
trying , to reach . Thomas Toshesky, a
miner, who was entombed last Friday,
this morning arrived at a point which
showed that forty feet of solid coal and
rock would have to be cut through to
enable them to crawl In and releaso the
imprisoned man.
Toshesky is undergoing the terrlflo
ordeal bravely In his isolated little prrson
100 feet below the surface. Frequently
during the ntsht he conversed' with the
rescuers, his' remarks being heard very
cfearly through the fifty feet of tubing
penetrating the coal breast from an .id
Joining chamber. Since a blanket was
pushed through the tube to him yester
day-he feels more comfortable, He sa!f
water wds' dripping from the roof and
that his prison wd beginning to grow
damp, while the atmosphere -was becom
ing heavy. Unless he Is soon ' rescued
he may perish for want of fresh air,
mining experts say.
Nearly every time he talks Toshesky
asks about his wife and four children.

The floats are all blc affairs, carefully
and tastefully decorated, while nearly
every Gorman lodge and fraternity in

sals and expect to make aa good a show
ing as any company of "West Point ca
dets on dress parade.
Ten big military bands that have re
ligiously practiced both . German and
American music will march and play In

The king has come and gone
In a blase of electrical wonder King Aki
Sar-Ben XIX was announced last night
In the. annual electrical parade of the Ak-Snr-llon
festivities. Twenty floats
crusted with lights pouring vaTlegated
shower."Tjf splendor, roiled majestically
down the streets.
Nothing Is more fitting for a king)
than to bring with him a pictorial his-!
tory ot great kings. And this did King
Ak-Sar-Ben- when he came Into the' city
of Cibola, In his magnificent float ac
companied by nineteen other floats re
cording the deeds ot Arabian and Per-
elan kings tn his display ot the Arabian
Nights. Was TennVson really viewing
the Pleiades or actually gating on the
king's pageant when he wrote ot the con
stellation "Glittering, like a swarm of
freflles tanglod In a. silvery braid."

the parade citt b'est nd seen. 'is' wortti
millions, or at least cannot ba bought tor
,such riguris. Thus lr'happons that each
year 'they crowd' tho streets earlier and
earlier in tho evening in the hbno of lo
cating a favored ipot.. Thus it happened)
that by 6:90 last night automobiles wore
already 'seeking. out favored spots on tho
side streets where they were securely
looked facing Sixteenth street. The own
ers then went home and had their din
ner. After that they came back with
their families and seated themselves in
their cars to wait for the coming of the
king. Thus a few got good places Just
as the early bird got the proverbial fat
one in the early morning. .
liut the hundreds ot thousands swayed
back and forth on the streets, packed
irom tne nuuainga to the curbstones,
shoulder to shoulder, elbow to elbow,
while the officers strove to prevent tits
anxious crowds from leaping over tho
ropes that had this year been stretched
along the parade route to keep them
back. Every balcony hung heavily with
human beings. Every window in the of
fice buildings even up to the tenth and.
fifteen stories, poured out) clusters ot
heads. For, Is not the coming nF tha
king worth tho effort. '
Cheered' by Snbjeets,
The first entrance was made from Six
teenth and Cuming .streets. Straight
down Sixteenth street came the grandiose
procession, cheered by the maasoa of
loyal subjects that packed the walks and.
even the roofs of the buildings. The pro
cession paraded tho principal streets of
tho city. Coming up Farnant street tho
king received the keys ot the city from
Mayor James C. Dahlman in front ot tha
city hall. The king had the town in tha
palm ot his hand for two hours, after
which he retired and left the gay multi
tude to enjoy the carnival ho bad pre
pared for their entortalnment.
Each float was numbered, and ahead of
