Philadelphia, June 2.—Extraordinary efforts are being made by the Phila- delphia Rapid Transit company, the majority of whose motormen and con- ductors are on strike for higher wages and better working conditions, to in- crease the number of cars in opera- tion. While the service is still badly crippled, less than 50 per cent of the cars being in operation, conditions are slightly improved. Several hun- dred new men, brought from other cities and picked up here since the strike was inaugurated last Saturday, have been put to work under the pro- tection of the police. In all parts of the 130 square miles of the city people who under ordinary clrcumstances never walk to or from their places of employment are walk- ing, most of them compelled to do so because of the lack of transportation facilities, but thousands from choice through. sympathy for the men. The Reading, Pennsylvania and Baltimore and Ohio railroads are carrying more than 90 per cent of the people from the outlying sections. Each company bas opened new ticket windows and extra equipment has been drawn from other sections to handle the increased traffic. There has been no effort made by either side to the struggle or by third patties to end the strike by peaceful means. DULUTH WOMAN IS ROBBED Loses $20,000 in Currency at Seattle, Wash.

Limit| | - ALDRICH WANTS LONG SESSIONS Asks Senate to Meet Earlier and Sit Later. RESOLUTION GOES (WER Objection Delays Action on His Pro- posal, but There Appears to Be Lit- tle Doubt of Its Adoption When a Vote Is Taken—Rhode Island Sen- ator and Dolliver of lowa Clash Over Cotton Schedule. Washington, June 2—Apparently the senate is upon the eve of night sessions for the consideration of the tariff bill. Senator Aldrich, chairman of the committee on finance, indicated in an official way an intention of ask- ing for such sessions by presenting a resolution providing that the daily sessions begin at 10:30 a. m. and con- tinue until 11 p. m., with an intermis- sion of two and a half hours from 5:30 to 8 p. m. Senator Culberson, the Democratic caucus leader, prevented immediate consideration of the resolution by making an objection, which had the effect of forcing the resolution over for a day. There is no doubt that the Republican majority, including the ¥progressives,” will support the Al drich resolution. During the discussion caused by the resolution Mr. Aldrich stated that unless greater progress should be made during the next week still long- er hours will be necessary. Senator Bailey characterized the remarks of the chairman of the finance committee as “a threat” but Mr. Aldrich de- clared that such was not the case and in support of his declaration called the senate to witness the fact that there had been no effort to curtall de- bate on the tariff. Cotton Schedule Considered. Taking up the cotton schedule Mr. Aldrich proposed amendments reduc- ing from 25 to 20 per cent ad valorem the minimum duty that may be charged on spool thread of cotton, crochet, darning, embroidery. cottons on spools, etc., and from 20 to 15 per cent the minimum on cotton thread and carded yarn, etc. These amend- ments were agreed to. A clash between Senator Aldrich and Senator Dolliver occurred when the senator from lowa attempted to obtain agreement to an amendment to. replace with ad valorem rates a line of specific rates on cotton cloth, not bleached, dyed, mercerized, colored, stained or printed. Mr. Dolliver de- elared that this amendment was to prevent increases in the rates on 70 per cent of the articles affected, ac- cording to the book of estimates com- viled by the committee on finance, Resisting this amendment Mr. Al" drich referred to senators who “bring importers’ briefs here” to affect the schedules. In reply Mr. Dolliver de- clared that he did not propose to “submit without protest to insinua- tions that I stand here reading any briefs or that I represent anybody except the people of the United States.” ON THE CHARGE OF PERJURY Important Witness In “Labor Graft” Case Indicted. Chicago, June 2.—Francis E. Tho- man, business agent of the Structural Ironworkers’ union, was indicted on a charge of perjury here in connection with his testimony for the defense in the trial of Madden, Pouchot and Boyle, the labor leaders who were convicted last week of “grafting.” Thoman was an important witness for the defendants. In making its report the grand jury intimated that the absence of other similar indictments was due to inabil- ity to secure the presence of needed witnesses. Prior to the return of the Indictment the jury was furnished with a complete transcript of the tes- timony in the “graft case.” INTRODUGED BY MR. CUMMINS Another Income Tax Amendment in the Senate. Washington, June 2.—Senator Cum- mins has introduced his Income tax amendment to the tariff bill. It pro- vides for a tax of 2 per cent on all incomes of individuals or corporations over §$5,000 a year. A feature is in- cluded which is intended to eliminate double taxation by allowing a rebate to the individual stockholder of a cor- poration whose dividend assessment has been paid through the corporation itselt.

He might have added with equal truth most of our ailments we bring upon our- selves, and very often we alone are re- sponsible for our difficulties. Wrong liv- ing causes many ailments.
