This Improvement does not by any means wipe oat the probability of an extra session of Congress, but It fare a ray of hope which was seised upon . eaxerly by the advocates of Canadian reciprocity. The storm clouds. which huns; menacingly low through an all-night session last night, lifted materially late today and. when the adjournment was taken shortly after o'clock I. 11-. until 11 o'clock to morrow, there was a promise of a further dearies; of the legislative skies. After a aay 01 constant search for a basis or agree meat, the pro-Lorlmer Senators, most of them opposed to the tariff board. and the pro-tariff board Senators, most of there opposed to Irlmer. -got to get her" In a modus Vivendi which cleared the situation and obviated the Impending danger of another night ses sion. So there will be a rote tomorrow aft ernoon on Lo rimer's ease and there Is little reason to doubt that It will- sus tain Lortmer. Tariff Board Likely to Win. The tariff board bill la at least In a materially Improved position. The vote of 33 to 11. by which It was made the unfinished business, would Indi cate that, should It com to a vote, the bill would be passed by a substantial majority. Some go so far as to say It will receive the entire Kepubltcan rote of the Senate. Uale gave notice be would attempt to put five appropriation bills through the Senate tomorrow afternoon and evening. These are the agricultural, the postofflce. the diplomatic and con sular, the fortifications and the m'll tary academy supply measures.

"Formerly all bats went off to the farmer." said Mr. Toung. "but now his toll Is unappreciated. He Is looked upon complacently. He is mainly thourht to live la Kansas and to wear whiskers." He called the agreement a calamity and placed the blame on the Insurg ents, who. he said, "took the commer cial lives of their constituents Into their hands and went forth to battle, as I think, for their personal ends." Toung referred to the speech of Bourne, of Oregon, last night, assail ing President Taft. and saying he had tried to coerce Senators and Kepre stntatlvea through political patron age. "My friend from Oregon." said Toung. "declaimed against the great polllK-al boss and proclaimed the death of political liberty, fte didn't say Just whan this death was to occur. I want to tell him that we have today the greatest political liberty in this coun try since the landing of Columbus. "Why. Mr. -President, we have 47 dif ferent varieties of Republicans alone and the returns are not all in yet. The Democratic varieties will be discovered after the new Congress meets." I'pon the conclusion of his speech, which frequently provoked laughter. Toung gave way to Senator Gronna. who spoke on reciprocity. He com plained that the farmers bad been sacrlnced to other Interests, that the agreement had been negotiated in the Hark and that there was an Implied threat In the demand that It be passed. Speaking In support of the tariff board bill. New-land said he would not object to any appointments the Presi dent might make, since he had ap pointed White. Lurton and Lamar to the Supreme Court.

A notable principle waa laid down today by the Interstate Commerce Commission in a derision In the rase of Railroad Com missioners of Iowa against the Illinois Central Railroad and other carriers. In brief, the Commission holds: "The net revenues of a carrier have often an undoubted Important bearing on the question of the reasonableness of Its rates, but the fact that they are greater than the returns on ordinary business enterprises Is not sufficient in itself to Justify a finding that the rates are excessive. The value of the service and other factors that enter into the construction of rates also must be taken Into consideration."
