After being in session for nearly twelve hours yesterday, the Senate re- cagsed last night after a scene of con- siderable disorder. tee, and Senator Robinson of Arkan- sas, came between the two senators as they adyanced toward each other and the clash passed when the Senate, at the suggestion of Senator Curtis, the republican whip, took a rece: until 11_o'clock ‘today. Senator ‘McCumber was bent upon keeping the Senate in session until a vote was had upon a pending amend- ment to the tariff bill, and Senator Robinson, pointing out that a roll call had disclosed a quorum was not present, moved an journment of the Benate when Senator McCumber re- fused to move a recess. The vote ‘was on the brick schedule and some of the democrats said they desired to discuss it further. * Bitter Fight Seen. The long-deferred fight over the dyestuffs provisions of the tariff bill broke last night in the Senate, with Senators .King, democrat, Utah, and Frelinghuysen, republican, New Jer- sey, as ,the central figures. This promised to be the longest and bit- terest controversy that has taken place during the more than & month ‘! and one-half of Senate consideration of the tariff measure. One early. development of the fight was the announcement\by Senator Smoot of Utah, ranking repuplican on.the finance committee, thit the committee would not insist upon the rewision of the bill, under which, op- contended, ers: of former German coal tar dve patents, trademarks and copyrights ‘would have been “‘protected completely through the:shutting out of dye im- ports bearing any trademark, label, brand or .impress registered in the Unitea States patent office by any person - domiciled in the United » unless such . persons gave consent to the importation.

HA-HA! 7z Gedirer,, SEEK ADJUSTMENT OF MEXICAN DEBT Conference Considers Terms of Agreement Regarding $700,000,000 Obligation. By the Associated Press. NEW YORK. June 2.—Determined to reach an agreement if possible, but, privately admitting that they were skeptical over the outcoms, the bank- ers, headed by Thomas W. Lamont of treasury, in an attempt to settle the long-standing problem of the $700,- 000,000 Mexican debt, on which no in- terest has been pald since 1914. Purely a Banking Problem. ‘While the conference is ostensibly a purely banking one, it also is re- garded as having at least an indirect bearing on the question of export oil taxes. The political significance of the meeting is another phase. Senar de la Huerta already has been made the target of political attacks at home because of his activities in con- connection with the conference, and it is considered natural that shall have domestic politcis in mind when the discussions are under way. It 1s generally believed in the finan- cial district that a eatisfactory solu- tion of the debt problem would pave the way for the recognition of Mex- ico by the United States government. Held as Necemsary Prelude. Acknowledgment of its external debts and provisions for their pay- ment always have been regarded by bankers as a necessary prelude to the resumption of diplomatic relations be- tween the two countries. Senor de la Huerta has stated that Mexico 18 not seeking any new money in the United States, but it is gen- erally believed that a funding of the national debt will be one of the fea- tures of the possible agreement.

Although the dozen saflors com- posing the American crew were brought here spechlly for this race, their championship caliber does not by any means insure a walk-over. Any superiority they may possess will be offset by the fact that both crews will use cut- ters from the Raleigh, and the vis- itors are much more used to han- dling a craft of that particular kind, seaworthy rather than fast, and equipped with heavy, straight- bladed oars. In fact, a number of experts look for a British victory. ing abreast of the Raleigh, docked at the navy yard. According to a member of her crew, the time for nineteen and Dela- representatives have done three miles in the same time, but in a boat far better adapted for speed and with spoon-bladed oars.
