Tt is expected that an in- teresting report will be submitted Mr. Andrews at the next meeting of | th Mercantile Bureau committee on | co-operative delivertes.

THYEVES BREAK INTO STORE. | J. M. Halloran's Store on Main Street Entered Last Night. Thieves broke into the store of Joseph M. Halloran on Main | street between 8 and 11 o'clock last night and got away with some ties, jewelry and some money, from the cash drawer. Entry to the store was through the door in the rear. window pane was knecked out and the key turned from the inside. A suilt came was found opened behind one of the counters, indicating that the person or persons who had been in the store intended to make a more thorough haul. but probably were frightened away or warned of the approach of the police. Mr. Halloran was in the store un- til 8 o'clock and at 11 o'clock the police called him up and notified him that the door in the rear of his store was open. No clue to the burglary has heen found.

Senator Penrose was compelled last night to go to his hotel under care of a physician, Others were forced by physical exhaustion to retire to | their homes: but plans of senate lead- ers were made to rush them back on | short motice should their votes be | needed. Twice during the night republicans and allied democrats of the opposi- | tion vainly sought to adjourn the sen- but administration lines held | ate, | firmly. Majority Leader Kern assert- i ed early in the day that there would | be no let up until the pending ques- | tion, at least, could be put to a vot | The pending question still remains on a motion of Senator Fletcher to re- ! commit the bill with instructions for its immediate amendment and re- turn to the senate. Wilson Holds Conferences, | Meanwhile, means for forcing the | shipping bill through were being dis- | cussed by President Wilson at confer- | ences with Majority Leader Under- wood of the house and Representa- who is to succeed Mr. house leader after | “ tive Kitchin, Jnderwood as March 4. The president’s suggestion to the house leaders was that the senate shipping bill might be attached as an amendment to the Weeks bill, al- ready passed by the senate, provid- ing for the U of naval vessels in carryving mails and freigat. The Weeks bill is now before the house naval affairs committee, The presi- dent, it was understood, had not final- ly determined to press this idea, but it is said to have support of several republican senators. May Call Extra Session. Mr. Kitchin went to the White House primarily to take up with the president the views of members of the w and means committee that there should be no extra session of congress. He stated that position frankly to the president, but went away with the impression that the president will insist on the shipping bill, even if it necessitates an extra session. | A parliamentary wrangle ensued and | the democrats abandoned their ef- | forts to force a vote. The encounter | was marked by a verbal clash between Senators Stone and Penrose, as a re- sult of which Senator Penrose was | taken to his hotel with a temperature of over 100 degrees. Hughes Withdraws Point, Only one attempt was made during the early morning hours of Senator Sherman’s speech to take him from the floor. With Senator James in the chair for a few minutes, Senator Hughes made the point of order that Senator Sherman was not discussing | the bill. Senator Sherman explained | that his remarks regarding the oper- ations of the parcel post system was in order because they dealt wita gov- | érnment ownership. Senator Hughes | finally withdrew his point, Senator | Kern, however, serving notice that ho | might renew it later. | It was 9 o'clock this morning bhe- fore the weary night watchers on the floor were relieved. Senators who had slept in the capitol committee rooms were to be seen making down | the corridors for the barber shop and | 1ater, one by one, took their places | on the floor. “Is this tomorrow or the next day?” inquired Senator Gallinger as hevpade his early morning appear- ancé, | “It Is Yesterday.” | It is yesterda responded Sen- ator Lea, who had spent the night in the presiding officer’s caair. “It will soonp be next week,” vol- unteered Senator Robinson, who at that time had succeeded Senator Lee of«Maryland as the sole democrat on | the floor. Senator Sherman at 9 a, m. had CREAM FOR CATARRH OPENS UP NOSTRILS Tells How To Get i from Head-Colds. uick Relief It’s Splendid! | | Tn one minute your clogged nostrils wil open, the air passages of your head will clear and you can breathe freely.

All records sions /n the senate, ent generation at continuous in the pres- least, were broken tfoday by the prolongation of Monday's session, In 1893 the repeal of the silver purchase clause of the Sherman law kept the nats in eontinuous session for thirty-eight Lours and forty-five minutes, a rec- crad for that period and one that was not surpassed until 2:45 a. m. to- day. Still the opponents of the passage of the shipping bill fought on. Sen- ator 8herman, who occupied the floor, discussed the evils of government ownership as senator after senator disappeared to his home or committee room for a little rest. Senator Lea of Tenneasce, who presided. and Sen- ator Lee of Maryland, constituted the entire majori side of the chamber. Senators Smoot and William Alden Smith of Michigan were the onlv re- publicans present for hours, in addi- ticn to Senator Sherman. New Stenographic Reporters, ‘With their eves badly swollen from the strain of the extraordinary work, the regular forces of official reporters were compelled to give way, and new stenographic reporters, for the first time in vears took their places on the floor. The period of calm early came only after a bitter struggle for supremacy about midnight. The re- publicans and their supporters on the democratic side sought to end the ses- sion, but the motion to adjourn was lost by a vote of 44 to 44. Cuts Off McCumber. On the other hand, Senators Fletch- er and Stone attempted to get a vote on the initial portions of the recom- motion, namely, the length of the term for which the government ship might be leased. Republican sen- ators clamored in excitement for the right to speak, but Senator Stone ob- tained the floor, cutting off Senator McCumber's speech which had been planned to continue far into the morn- ing hours. ses- Native eggs 33c doz.

Suspicious of Charges, He was inclined to be suspicious of all charges coming from the Do- minican Republic, because Mr. Vick had told him, in relation to accusa- tions against the latter, that the “‘at- mosphere there was charged with re- and throat-cuting.” Mr. Tumulty denied that the White House had ever exonerated or “‘white- washed” Mr. Sulllvan. He said that J. Franklin Fort, who had headed a commission to settle a Dominican rev- olutfon, had told the president that Minister Sullivan was a ‘“big-hearted Irishman” and that there “was noth_ ing against him.’ He declined to ex- press any opinion as to Sullivan's fit- ness for office, but criticised Vick as A ‘'sore-head.” Letter From Tumulty. Counsel C. H. Strong, for the com- missioner, put into the record a let- ter from Mr. Tumulty, in which he gald Samuel D. Wilson of Philadel- phia had telephoned the White House, saying that he had information which ‘seriously reflected on Minister Sul. " but that as “a friend of the administration,” he did not wish to testify without first consulting Mr. Tumulty. The letter said that Mr. ‘Wilson had been advised to appear at once before the cammissioner. Representative Hamill told the com- missioner that he had never discussed Sullivan’s candidacy for the Domini- can post with W. . Beer, John G.

He had been an intimate friend of Mr. Sullivan and gave him his suppart as a friend, he sa) Secured Two Appointments, Mr. Hamill added that he had se- cured for Mr. Beer two appointmen to the Naval academy, one for Mr. Beer’'s son. who failed to take ad- vantage of it He said he met Mr. Beer several times, but that he had never discussed with Beer contracts in the Daminican republic, and had never been present when money was delivered by Beer to anvone. He sald that he ha’ never acted for the Jar- vis {nterest or the Banco Nacional as a lawyer. snd had never benefitted or sought to I anefit from his acquaint- ance with Mr. Beer. Questione. by Mr. Strong, Mr. Hamill told of a debt of $500 or $600 | which Mr. Sullivan paid to Bishop Broderic in Pittsfield, Mags., while his nomination was pending before the senate committee. Bishop Broderick, he explained, withdrew a protest agafnst Sullivan’s motion after the debt was paid. Not “Heavy Drinker." Mr. Hamill declared that in his ac- quaintance with Minister Sullivan he had never seen anvthing that would Justify a statement that Sullivan was a “heavy drinker.” Commissioner Phelan today received documentary evidence from state de- partment files and other sources, in. cluding letters from Sullivan's credi- tors endeavoring to collect bills through the department.
