At a mealing of the Senate commerce committee today, a telegram from Mayor Simon, of Port Land, was read, urging confirmation of P. S. Malcolm aa Collector of Customs for Oregon. In view of the-fact that Malcolm's nomination haa been held up for see eral weeks at the request of Senator iiourne. It was suggested by several members of the committee that some action be taken. Bourne, however, ssked for delay, ssying be was not resdy to have Malcolm's nomination considered at this time. It then went over with the understanding that It be taken up and disposed of next Thurs day. It developed todsy that, notwith standing his statements to the con trary. Bourne haa never filed a written protest against the confirmation of Malcolm, nor baa he made any explana tion to the committee of the grounds on which be asked delay.

Senatorial courtesy may result la an adverse report. The committee understands that President Taft Is anxious to have Mal colm confirmed, and by next Thursday Bourne will have to show his band. Appeal Comes From Family, Accom panied by Pltotographs Detec tives Start on Hani. WASHINGTON. Feb. . The Demo crats of the House, aided by a few Re publicans who declined to be bound by the party caucus, won their fight to day for an Increased representation In the lowor branch of Congress under tha census of 110. They voted down the Republican caucus bill to retain the House mem bership at 391. and then passed the original Crumpacker bill, fixing the membership at 433 on and after March 4. 1913. If Arliona and New Mexico are admitted to statehood they will ba given one representative each, bringing the total to 435. The action of the House today must be ratified by the Senate. This, the House leaders believe, the Senate will do. Thee States Gain Members. Under the new reapportionment plan. no state loses a member. The follow I ing states gain the number indicated: Alabama 1. California 3, Colorado 1, Florida 1. Georgia 1. Idaho 1. Illinois 1. Louisiana 1. Massachusetts 2. Michi gan I, Minnesota 1, Montana I. New Jersey 2. New York t. North Dakota 1, Ohio l. Oklahoma 3. Oregon 1. Penn sylvania 4. Rhode Island 1. South Da kota 1. Texas 2. Utah 1, Washington 2, West Virginia 1. The House spent more than five hours on the bill. An amendment of fered by Bennett of New York, de signed to cut down Southern represen tation, was voted down. 154 to 96. Crumpacker of Indiana, chairman of the committee on census and author of several bills to reduce the representa- tlon of states in the South, voted against the Bennett amendment. Democrats Lose Only Once. The Democrats lost but one decision In the fight. A committee amendment providing that the states should be re- dlstricted by the Legislatures was voted down on an appeal of the Repub lican members of the Missouri delega tion. They held that the states should be permitted to redlstrict themselves in their own way. The advocates of a membership of 391 fought for their cause to the last min ute. Before the final vote was taken. Campbell of Kansas moved the recom mitment of the 433 bill, with Instructions to the committee of the whole House to report a substitute providing for 391 members. The motion waa lost by a vote of 131 to 171. This reflected the sentiment of tho members so clearly that the vote by which the bill was piwsed was decided In the affirmative without a division or a rollcall. Crumpacker began the debate by urg ing the necessity for action at this ses sion and explaining the difference be tween the two propositions before the House. Effect of Yeils on Vision In experimenting upon the effect of the wearing; of veils upon the eyesight. I selected over a dozen specimens of veils and applied the ordinary tests of ability to rea,d while wearing tliem. These teste clearly showed that every sort of veil affects, more ir less, the abil ity to see plainly, both at a dis tance and near at hand. I found that, other things being equal, the vision in interfered with In direct proportion to the number of meshes per square Inch. The texture of the veil Is Important, as the fol lowing comparisons show: A double-mesh veil, one loses 40 per cent of vision: a dotted chenille veil, 20 per cent loss of vision; targe dots, far apart, plain mesh between, 10 per cent loss of vllon; plain mesh, t per cent loss of vision. Of all veils, tha least objectionable is without dots, sprays or other fig ures, but with large, regular meshes made with single compact threads. IK VOL' NKED UI.ASSK.1 WE WIM.

Scarcely had Langley left the floor before Madden wanted to know if ba proposed not to recognize the action of the Republican caucus which he had at tended. He replied that he liked to be "regular," but believed the caucus had no right to approve any specific number and for his part he would not allow any man or any caucus to deter him from carrying out his pledge to represent his people. Champ Clark of Missouri, In favoring an increase In membership, eaid the real work of the House would continue to be performed in committee, and that the number of members on the floor would make little or no difference. SA.V FRANCISCO, Feb. Special.) Tha San Francisco police today began to take Its part In tha country-wide search for pretty Dorothy H. C. Arnold, who Is mlaalng from the home of her father at New Tork. Chief Seymour today received a heartfelt appeal from the family of the young woman to do anything possible to locate, her. as relatives and friends believe t very likely that aha came to thia city Immediately after her mysteri ous disappearance. With the appeal for the aid of the local police the Chief received three different styles of photo graphs of the young woman for the purpose of aiding citizens generally to help In the effort to locate the girl. I'lnkerton detectives also started to lo. cata tha girl bare, and hotel managers bava been notified that, should any clew come In tbelr way, they should t once Inform the police. Tha laat trace which can ba found of her was a short while after she left borne, when she waa seen at I'ren tano's and at Park Tilfnrd's Fifty- ninth-street store In New Tork City. No reasons are known to her family hlch would Induce the heiress of a large fortune to leave her home, nor Is there any Indication of such an intent on her part. . Ouinpbell Opposes Large House. Campbell of Kansas spoke In behalf of his bill, approved by the Republican caucus, for the retention of the present membership of 391. He said he would prrfer to have the number reduced, rather than Increased. Campbell said that every increase in tha membership of the House had been made to gratify the ambition of members rather than to put Into practice any ideas about tha formation of -a repre sentative body.
