BURKETT FOR, BROWN AGAINST Semator La Follette of Wisconsin Delays Finish by Afternoon Speech of Characteristic Nature, WASHINGTON, April 20.—By the decisive vote of 3 to 2 and In the midst of Intense excltement the administration republicans Friday defeated the Cummins substitute for the Crawford-Elkins traffic agreement pro- wislon of the raflroad bill. This question had practically monopolized the attention of the senate for the last week and was regarded as one of the most {mportant sub- ¢ivisions of the pending bill. The vote is generally accepted as a test of the strength of the contending sides, respectively, and It is believed that It presages the passage of tho bill by a safe majority. Of the total membership of ninety-two there were twenty-elght senators who did Tot vote, and of these four, all democrats, were absent without being represented. They were Senators Clark of Arkansas, Bankhepd of Alabama, McEnery of Loulsi- ana and Smith of Maryland. All the democrats present voted for the Cummins provision, so that if the four democrats mentioned had been present and had voted for the amerdment the ballot In its favor would have been Increased to thirty-three, stlll less by two votes than the vote against the provision. Only eigh- teen democratio votes were cast, and these, tusether with eleven republicans who voted for the Cummins substitute, constituted the entire atfirmative. Full Vote of Senate. The full vote was as follows Yeas—Bacon, Balley, Beveridge, Borah, Bristow, Burkett, Chamberlain, Clapp, Clay, Cummins, Davis, Dixon, Dolliver, Fletcher, Frasier, Gamble, Core, Johnstone, La Fol- FREE TO ASTHMA SUFFERERS A New Mome ne Oan Use Without Discomfort or Loss of TFime.

Immediately after the result was an- nenunced Senator Cummins, whose provis- foft had been voted down, gave notice of another amendment Intended to accomplish the same purpose. He had claimed for his substitute that it would specitically require the approval by the Interstate Commerce commission of all rates under traffic agreements In advance of their taking ef- fect, but his substitute covered all phases of the question. Cummins’ Substitute. By the amendnient presented today the lowa senator seeks to Insert a proviso de- claring that no increase or change in classification shall take effect until it shall have recelved the approval of the commission. There is a general under- standing that voting will be resumed to- morrow @&nd It Is expected that all amend- ments, including that of Mr. Cummins, will be voted down and that the Crawford provision, which has been accepted by the commission, will be adopted. The voting stage was not reached until late In the day. The senate had begun the consideratfon of the bill in the hope of being able to complete the section before the close of the sitting, and would have been able to do so but for the fact that| at the last moment Senator La Follette came in with a speech, which delayed the voting. Previous to Mr. La Follette's speech the time had been ‘given to addresses by Sen- ators Newlands and Cummins, Senator Frye, president pro tem, occupled the chair, and his recognition of the Wis- consin senator was rather grudgingly given. Mr. La Follette, beginning at 1:5 p. m., continued untfl 4:45 o'clock. His speech was a plea against the annulment of the Sberman antl-trust law as applicable to the rallroads, without supplylng adequate pro- tection in its absence, Senate Anxious to Vote. In many respects it was a remarkable speech, and it was delivered under some- what trying circumstances. The senate as weil as its presiding officer, evidently wanted to voté, and while most of the senators retained their seats there was manifest impatience, at least among the advocates of the bill. Declaring that the standard in the senate had declined since 18%, when the anti- trust law was enacted, and asserting that law to be, next to the constitution, the principal bulwark of the liberties of the people, Mr. La Follette warned his col- leagues and especially western senators, against being the first to impair the law. Taking up the republican platform, Mr.| frequently came nearer representing the view of Interested parties than those of the people at large, and that in reality the senate committee recommendation did not coineide with the party declarations. Rising to tip-toe, and stretching his arm toward the republican side of the chamber, the Wisconsin senator proceeded to present his views of the transactions at the Chicago | convention, dec'aring the Denver convention had been as carefully watched as had the other by.the trusts. v ——— Persistent Adveitising is the Road to Blg | | trophy medal.

The senlor class of 1810 led the under- classmen by a margin of 18 points In the annual class track athletic meet held by high school students Friday. Out of & pos- sible 122 points the senfor athletes took 50 points, the juniors 3 points, the freshmen 30 and the sophomores 9. This score a lows the senior class to keep the silver trophy, which they won last year, for an- other year. In individual competition John Rayley of the senlor class and Robert Wood of the freshmen are so far judged to be equal in number of points. According to the rules under which the meet is held the competitor who attains the greatest num- ber of credits shall be awarded the gold trophy medal for that year and the one who 18 In second place shall have the silver Several events in which the number of credits was not made clear Wil be decided later, thus placing the medals with these two boys, The Omaha High, school record for the 20-yard dash was Broken and the record for the 100-yard was tied in this meet, but Coach Carns stated that these records would not stand as high school records because the wind was behind the boys as they ran. Under the rules of the High School assoclation, to which Omaha be- longs, records made with wind behind the runners do not stand as such. Both the records made, however, were by Robert Wood, a sophomore. The 220-yard dash was made in 2% seconds and the 100-yard dash In 10% seconds. None of the events was very closely con- tested for first place except the half-mile, In which Kulakofsky and Fraser, both senlors, ran neck and neck until the fin- ishing post was almost reached, when Ku- lakofsky Was able to gain a little on his opponent. In the mile run, Hudson led the pace for third place untll the last 100 yards, when Ludwig overtook him and landed in third place. One reason the seniors came out so well in the race was that they took dimost all the points in the welght events. Coach Carns was a littie disappointed in the show- ing made by the boys In the jumps and the pole vault, but was more than pleased by the results of the races and says he expects Omaha to come out well in the state meet, to be held on May ¢ at Lincoln, The following are the events and the time and dlstance made In each: 100-yard dash, first heat: Howard won in 0:104, Rawley second in 0:11. ‘Wood won in 0:10%, Ryley Millard won in 0:10%, Drexel second in 0: Wood, freshman, won in 0:10%, econd in 0:108, third in 0104, yard dash: Wood, freshman, won in 0:22%, 5 points; Millard, sophomore, second, 3 points; Howard, senior, third, 1 point. 440-yard dash: Rouse, freshman, won in G4, 5 points; Howard, senlor, second, § Ryley, freshman, third, 1 poin mile run: Kulakofsky, won in 2 Fraser, Rouse, Howard, o: points; Half senlor, second 5 points in freshman, third in 2:1, : points, int. ile run: Kennedy, senfor, won in 4:56, 5 points; Ellsworth, junior, second, 3 points Ludwig, junior, thi 1 point. lb-y-m’ hl:h h\n.a-. p:ro evenl, each 92 feet 4 inches, 5 points; man rupning separately: Rylev. ~senior, won in 0:18 5 points; Rector, junlor, sec- ond in 0:20%, 8 points; Crocker, sophomore, third in 0:21%, 1 point. . 220-yard high hurdles, time event, each mun running separately: .

Miners’ Strike Settled in East, Wages Increased senlor, 6ontnvany Ends After Month's Sus- pension of Work—Diggings Open Monday. PITTSBURG, ,April 0.—The controversy between the 40,000 union miners and op- erators of the Pittsburg soft coal district which has resulted in a month’s suspension of mining, was settled late tonight. The miners will return to work Monday. The miners are to recelve an advance of 5.5 per cent, but the wage matter had not lately been as much of a controversy as the permigsable “powder issue.” It has been arranged that in the twelve mines now using explosives which the state law demands, tests are to be made, and if It 1s shown that permissable powder produces more slack in coal than black powder, the miners to be paid the difference, based on the average test in each of these mines. If the run of the coal is the same no change is to be made. Other provisions were largely routin DES MOINES, Ia., April %.—Encounter- ing & stone wall of opposition in the ranks of their employes, the Jowa coal operators today abandoned their stand for the incor- poration of extra disciplinary measures in the fifth general resolution. of the contract.

KANSAS CITY, Mo, April %.—At a meeting between the striking miners and the coal operators of the southwest dlstrict next Monday morning in this city, it is expected some definite advance will be made in seftiing the wage scale.

NEW YORK, April %.—Mayor Gaynor and Willlam Randolph Hearst both issued statements Friday on the issue raised last night at the joint banquet of the Associated Press and the Newpaper Publishers’ asso- clation, when the mayor’ sald that Mr. Hearst was a forger and a falsifier. Supplementary statements were issued by Comptroller Prendergast, former Comp- troller Metz and the district attorney's office, following rumors that there was. & possibility of future legal proceedings as a result of the mayor's address last night.

It is obvious to anyone, however, that the mayor's defense is false upon its face. His attack upon the American s entirely disingenious and wholly untruthful.
