New Council Rules. The amendments to the standing rules of the council were taken from the table and were adopted on the motion of Alderman Curtis. The tabled resolution relating to the authorizing of an expenditure of $1,300 for the purchase of badges for the ex-service men. Alderman Curtis said that in April the council voted to refer the whole subject of soldier welcoming to the war bureau. He called the attention of the council that the expenditure for purchase of badges worth only 39 cents each makes it appear that the council very “small.” He favored giving the soldiers something which they would preserve.

While the measure originated with the commissfon appointed to investi- gate trolley conditions throughout the state, a relief measure, and had the approval of the trolley companies at the time of its presentation to the legislature, it was at their request that the governor withheld his signature from the bill yesterday. The change in the attitude of the railway com- panies was brought about by the pas- sage of a bill providing that a bond of from $5.000 to $10,000 be filed with the automobile commissioners by all jitneurs and further providing for the taxing of all cars used as jitneys ac- cording to their size. This, the trol- ley companies claimed, was equiva- lent to double taxation, inasmuch they are already charged for franchise. The bill was recalled from the of- i fice of the secretary of state yester- day so that an amendment might be added doing away with the double- taxation feature. After the house had adopted the amendment, the senate demurred and finally rejected the amendment, leavimz the bill as ori- | ginally presented. When the hill was returned to the house, the senate had already closd out its business and that body concurred with the senate in re- Jjecting the amendment. ernor refused to sign as as the UKRIANIANS PROTEST POLISH ADVANCES Allies Bothered Since Padereweski Cannot Carry Out His Pledge to Stop Fighting.

When she got the bill from Lucile, Ltd., she wrote to Lady Duff-Gordon that she thought she was just buying a skirt or so for personal use, not equipping an opera company. In reply to that, wrote: ‘Lady Duff-Gordon has nothing to do whatsoever with the financial side of the business.
