WASHINGTON, Feb. 28.—The serenity of today's proceedings in the senate was in sharp contrast with the tempestuous ses- slon yesterday.

HOUSE ADOPTS THE REPORTS on . Revenue Diplomatic and tural BiI) thy which car- WASHINGTON, Feb, 28.—The house cleared the decks today of & number of im- portant conference reports without much difficulty. The conference reports on the war revenue reduction bill proved gemer- ally acceptable to both ‘sides and was adopted without division. Mr. Richardson, the minority leader, acquicsced in It as the best that could be done, although he stated that the minority still belleved the war taxes should be reduced $70,000,000. Final reports on the diplomatic and con- sular and agricultural appropriation bills were adopted. The major part of the day was devoted to the bill to promote the efficiency of the revenug cutter service. Although the bill 18 a house measure its friends wore very persistent, and in the face of many dif- cultles hung on to it with bulldog tenacity and finally forced the bill into such a pars llamentary situation that it will be voted on after five minutes' debate tomurrow. The house met at 11 o'clock today. ~Mr. Loud presented a complete conference re- port upon the postofiice appropriation bill. He explained that the most important amendment agreed upon in conference w that providing for experiments in mall de- lMvery in towns and cities not having free delivery or rural free delivery service. He did not think it wise, as it might commit the government to mall delivery in every city, town d ‘village and might ulti- mately Involve an expenditure of $25,000,000 per annum. The amendment directing the postmaster gemeral to report upon the feasibility of the government owning the postal telegraph-telephone system he con- sidered unwi He was opposed to the government entering upon a postal tele- graph scheme, but it had been represented to the conferees thit this amendment must be accepted to avold complications in the closing hours of the sesslon. Mr. Cannon also entered his protest inst the amendments for exporiments in mail delivery. He declared that the amend- ment was the entering wedge for free de- livery in every town In the United Stat There were 50,000 of such towns. expense was only $1,000 a year in each town —and it would be twice that much ana more—the total would be $50,000,000 a year. The report was defeated—42 to 78—and the bill went back to conference. Moody of Massachusetts, chairman of the special committee appointed to In- vestigate the pay of employes of the house, presented the report of that committee.

WESTERN CIRCUIT \ —— IN PROSPECT American Assoclation May Be 8 ceeded by a New Alllamce o Ohto, Indiana and Michi- wan Clabs, NEW YORK, Feb. 28-The National league magnates concluded their annual spring meeting at the Fifth Avenue hotel today. Before adjournment the playing schedule for the coming season was an< nounced. The national board of arbitra- tlon, consisting of A. H. Soden, James Hart, John T. Brush, E. De Haas Robison, Colonel John I. Rogers and President Young, went Into session at 10:30 a. m. It took seven hours to finish the business before it. The official death knell of the American association as an organization in its pri ent form was sounded. It s not improb- able, however, that a circuit of western clubs will be launched within a few days under this title. President Powers sent a letter to the board, in which he gave up the fight for his organization, saying the eastern end had gone to the wall under financial difficulties. He then aksd that the western promoters be allowed to re- serve thelr territorial rights and be al- lowed to protect their players under con- tract for the purpose of reorganizing under the title of the American association The circult propsed includes Loulsville, Indianapolis, Fort Wayne, Dayton, Colum- bus, Mansfield, Detroit, Grand Rapids or Milwavkee. If thie scheme cannot oe brought about successfully, it is probable that Indianapolis and Louisville wil be taken into the Western league Lay Blame on Rogern. The promoters of the defunct assoclia- tlon blame Colonel John 1. Rogers for the smashing of the organization ow account of his action in compelling the association team in Philadelphia to use league grounds before he would consent to the of a club In that city. The rental was fixed at $5,400 for the year, the association to pay all expenses for employes, ete The board decided to protect W. H, Wat- kins' interest at Indianapolis. With the ex- ception of Magoon and Hartzell, who go to league clubs, the board upon applica- tion of Mr. Watkins decided to protect him by allowlng him to hold all the players on his team and also protect his territorial rights. Charles Strobel, the Toledo magnate in the Interstate league, was turned down hard by the national board in his protest against the Kansas City club of the Western league. The Toledo Management failed to apply for protection within the prescribed time in the natlonal agreement. The Kansas City peo- ple took advantage of the failure and signed five of Mr. Strobel's players. He protested, but the board found, aftcr hearing the evi- dence, that inasmuch as Mr. Strobel had failed to comply with the national agree- ment, his players were free and at lib- erty to sign with whom they pleased. The application of the Western league for protection with its original membership un- der the national agreement was granted. The board refused to grant the application of the Connecticut league to use other than the regulation league balls in championship games Vieker Makes Good. 4 “Mattie’ McVicker's appeal to be re- leased from coutract With the Omaha club was granted. McVicker claimed that under the terms of his original contract he was exempt from reservation. Declslon was reversed upon the applica- tion of C. B. Kuhn to be released from the Syracuse club. The club was instructed to forward to the board proof of the agreement between it and toe player. Kubn claimed his release on the ground that there was back salary due him. The Chicago club was awarded the serv- ices of Outflelder T. L. Hartzell as against the clalm of the Cincinpati club for the player. Under an agreement the Chicago club was to have first pick of two players of the American league for giving its consent to have the latter organization place a club in Chicago a year ago. That was before the fight between the American and National leagues. Late last year the Cincinnati club drafted Hartzell and played him in several games. At the conclusion of the season the Chicago club declded to pick Hartzell as one of th two players under the agreement with Ban Johnson. Cincinnati also wanted the players and the case was carried to thc na- tional board with the above result. President Hart of Chicago announced that Jack Doyle affixed his signature to a Chicago contract. Doyle, it is said, will probably captain the Chicagos this season. Andrew Freedman made good his threat and did not attend the session of the mag- nates. He was represented by Fred M. Knowles. The consensus of opinion seemed to be that Mr. Freedman's proposed amend- ment to the constitution touching on the question of “rowdy ball” was entirely too sweeping. Mr. Freedman quit the meeting in anger because of the failure of the mag- t favorably on the amendment. ‘To Prevent the Grip Laxative Bromo-Quinine removes the cause CONTINUES HOUSE CLEANING ction of Bills in Legin- Last Day for Introd Soath Dakot Inture.

CHICAGO, Feb. 28.—Through a pecullar combination of ciroumstances half a block of pavement caught fire today. One street car was burned and some damage done along the street. An ofl tank wagon was wrecked by a trolley car and the ofl soon flooded the pavement. Another electric car came along and 2 spark igoited the fluid, the flames epreading rapidly. The car which was the original cause of the trouble, being -block- aded by the wrecked wagon, was burned to the wheels, but the one which set the blaze going escaped.
