Hope of Defeating Meas
ure In Senate.
WASHINGTON. May 8. Ttie TTnder
wood tariff bill, proclaimed by the
Democratic party as the answer to its
platform pledge to reduce the tariff
downward, was passed by the House
late today.
The vote was 281 to 139, five Demo
crats voting against the bill and two
Republicans for It Four Progressives
supported the measure and 11 opposed
It while one Independent, Progressive
joined with the majority.
When Speaker Clark announced a
vote In loud tones that revealed his
satisfaction, exuberant Democrats here
started a stuffed Democratic donkey
over the heads of their colleagues In
the rear of the chamber, a faint ripple
of applause followed and the gavel fell
on the first chapter In the history of
President Wilson's extraordinary . ses
sion of Congress.
Hoih Members Hastea Home.
With the bill on Its way to the Sen
ate, there was a rush of Representa
tives to their homes tonight. Adjourn
ment will be taken in the House three
days at a time, beginning next week,
until June 1.
Republicans and Progressives. led re
spectively by Representatives Mann and
Murdock. protested to the last against
the measure, the lowest tariff bill ever
written, and proclaiming, as the Demo-
atic avalanche bowled them over. th
virtues of differing tariff commission
plana
The Republicans who Toted for the
bill were Cary and Stafford, of Wiscon
sin. . Democrats who opposed it were
Brouasard. Dupre. Lazare and Morgan,
of Louisiana, and C B. Smith, of New
York. Progressives who voted for the
bill were Kelly and Rupley, of Penn
sylvania; Nolan, of California, and
Bryan, of Washington. Kent, of Cali
fornia, formerly a Republican but now
an Independent Progressive, also voted
for the bill. Progressive Leader Mur
dock and 13 of his Progressive follow
ers voted with the minority in the final
consideration of the measure.
IHm'a Appeal Fall.
Minority Leader Mann made a lengthy
. rpeech on a point of order by Mr. Un
derwood to rule out a provision for a
tariff board on the motion of Represen
tative Payne, of New York, to recom
mit the bill. Speaker Clark sustained
the point of order. Mr. Mann appealed
from the decision of the chair, and a
roll call was taken on Mr. Underwood's
motion to table the appeal, the Demo
crats winning 274 to 143.
Progressive Leader Murdock also
moved to recommit, with Instructions
to provide for a non-partisan tariff
commission, but he failed to get a roll
call, and then the Payne ' motion to
recommit, minus the tariff board pro
vision, was lost.
The tariff fight shifts tomorrow from
the House, with its overwhelming
Democratic majority, to the Senate,
where the party's slim majority of six
already has been reduced, as far as
this bill Is concerned, to four. Unless
Senators familiar with the progress of
each legislation are mistaken, there Is
now little prospect of a final vote on
the bill before August 1.
Keaate Voyaao ts Be Stormy.
The bill's passage through the Senate
will be fought at. every step by Repub
lican a Leaders of the Democrats on
the Senate finance committee, which
will handle the bill, expressed the belief
tonight that It would go through In
practically the same form as It passed
the House, and that their small major
ity would stand firm to the last. Demo
cratic leaders acknowledge that the
two Senators from Louisiana will not
accept the sugar schedule, and that
they might be willing to combine with
ethers to defeat the whole bill.
Although there have been reports
about the Senate that the Democrats
intend to allow one more Senator to
vote against sugar and another to vote
against wool, leaders of the finance
committee today refused to confirm it.
Republicans who are Interested in beat
ing the bill and who have canvassed
those Democrats who looked at all
doubtful, agreed tonight that they had
little hope of success, and that, with
the exception of the two Senators from
Louisiana, they cannot count on a
single vote.
Smoot Wlil Seek to Aniril.
Senator Smoot will offer amendments
to every schedule .in the bilL These
will be debated at length and a record
vote probably will be required on each.
The bill may be laid before the
Senate tomorrow and will be referred"
to the finance committee.
Chairman Simmons had hoped to be
able to report It from the committee
In two weeks from tomorrow, but he
now thinks It cannot be reported under
three weeks, even if hearings are not
held. Opinion In the finance com
mittee Is that at least five weeks will be
ppont by the Senate in consideration
of tha bill after It is reported-

Police Captain Charles Sullivan and
Mrs. Grace Bailey, keeper of a resort at

it, "she bad an understanding," and
considered herself exempt from police
Interference. After Mrs. Bailey left the
grand Jury room Captain Sullivan took

BUILDING FUND INCREASES
Nearly $20,000 Secured for Xew
Presbyterian Church.
More than 16000 was collected yes
terday by the committee In charge of
the campaign to raise a 325.000 build
ing fund for the now Westminster
Presbyterian Church, at Seventeenth
and Schuyler streets.
This makes the aggregate collected
since the campaign begun the first of
the week approximately 319,600.
A most of the heaviest subscrip
tions already have been accounted for,
the committee feels that It will have
a lot of hard work to do In collecting
the remainder from smaller sub
scribers. The 40 men who are direct
ing the campaign will work today and
tomorrow. Heretofore they have
worked In the evenings only.
The women of the congregation will
continue their dinners each evening

WASHINGTON. May. 8. The Japa
nese government, through Ambassador
Chinda, will acquaint Secretary Bryan
early tomorrow of the nature of Its ob
jections to the anti-alien land bill
awaiting Governor Johnson's signature
in California, and by noon it Is expect
ed that the position of the United
States Government will have been de
fined to the Ambassador.
This understanding followed confer
ences which Secretary Bryan had late
today with President Wilson and with
Ambassador Chinda. Secretary Bryan
had to hurry away to Baltimore to at
tend a dinner there and he talked with
Ambassador Chinda only a few minutes,
arranging to meet him at 9:30 o'clock
tomorrow. Immediately after which, by
special arrangement, the President and
his Cabinet will meet to discuss the
Japanese protest. Afterward, Mr.
Bryan will confer again with Ambas
sador Chinda explaining the attitude
of the Administration.
Referendum Slay Delay Issue.
Secretary Bryan discussed the Call
foVnia situation at length with John
Bassett Moore, counsellor of the De
partment It is believed here that the refer
endum movement being urged by Theo
dore Bell, of San Francisco, may have
the effect of postponing the entire
question for a psriod long enough for
the United States and Japan to arrive
at an understanding or perhaps nego
tiate a new treaty covering . disputed
points.
While Secretary Bryan declined to
discuss the referendum, and White
House officials were equally reticent,
it Is known that friends of the Ad
ministration have told the President
there would be no difficulty In getting
sufficient signers in California to
compel a referendum at the polls on
the antt-allen bill.

In the meantime It Is expected that
the President or Secretary Bryan will

Are to Be Known.
LAWYER NAMED SECRETARY
Rev. A. A. Morrison and A. NL
Churchill Elected.
NO INDORSEMENTS MADE
Correct Information for Benefit of
Voters to Be Compiled and Pub
lished Sub-Committee to
Solicit Suitable Candidates. '
Investigation of the records and
capabilities of the various candidates
for offices under the commission char
ter will be compiled and published
under the direction of the "committee of
100 citizens, which met In the green
room of the Commercial Club last night
and formed a permanent organization,
with Rev. A. A. Morrison, rector of
Trinity Episcopal Church, as chairman,
and A. M. Churchill, a lawyer, as secre
tary. A committee of 10 also was author
ized to solicit suitable candidates for
the offices of Mayor and Commission
ers and, while no implication of in
dorsement was given to these new can
didates, some present favored goln
that far, should the occasion warrant It.
Following the meeting, late last
night. Dr. Morrison selected members
for the various committees, among the
most Important of which is the com
mittee to seek further satisfactory
candidates to enter the field for the
offices of Mayor and Commissioners.
The committee has no power to pledge
in any way the support or indorsement
of the committee of 100, but merely to
promise that the records of such candi
dates and their respective qualifications
shall be fully set forth, to the public.
Women on Committee.
The membors of this committee are:
G. F. Johnson, Phil S. Bates, William
A. Marshall. J. N. Teal. R. W. Ray
mond, R. L. Glisan, Mrs. Frederick Es
gert, Mrs. Henry Waldo Coe, C. D. Ma

tee of one on publicity.
The chairmen of these committees
will act with W. B. Aycr, John F.
O'Shea, Everett Logan and Dr. L. K.
Dyott as the executive committee.
The general sentiment prevailing
was that the committee of 100 citizens
should make no indorsements, although
some favored such action. Some were
of the opinion that the public would
appreciate such an indorsement, while
others felt that such indorsement would
not be appreciated by the general
public
No One la Indorsed.
At any rate, the meeting last night
took no action toward indorsing any
one for any office. It was agreed that
the most Important work now at hand
was the compilation of the records of
the various candidates for office and
their publication, so that the average
voter might select whom he or she
pleases, having the correct information
from which to make the choice.
Upon motion of F. W. Chausse. the
chair was -authorized to appoint all
committees, including the committee of
ten, on new candidates, membership.
Investigation, publicity and finance.
All of the committees will work sub
ject to the general direction of the
committee of 100 and will form an
executive committee to carry forward
the work between meetings of the gen
eral committee.
The' committee on Investigation was
empowered to obtain the records of the
various candidates and to expend sum
of money, if necessary, but it was ex
pressly stipulated by the general com
mittee that no professional detectives
were to be employed.
Reliable Facts Only Wanted.
It was made clear that only such In
formation as may be had from regular
channels, such a3 commercial agencies,
for illustration, shall be obtained, and
It was also made clear that it is the
special aim of the committee to provide
the public with Information which shall
be absolutely accurate and reliable,. so
that when it is published and laid be
fore the voters It cannot be refuted in
any manner.
That the committee of 100 wished to
acquaint all of the voters with the ac
tual facts about each, candidate was
impressed clearly upon those present,
and It was expressly stated that the
committee desired to make especially
prominent the good records of all the
candidates whom they think deserved
support at the hands of the electorate,
as well as the bad records of those not
deserving support.
There was difference of opinion
among those in attendance as to he
far the committee of 100 should go in
the direction of centering public atten
upon certain candidates thought to be
deserving of support, but the general
