AFTER 99 YEARS
Body ot Major George Clinton
Removed
19 GUNS FIRED IN HONOR
The Remains Were Escorted From
Cemetery to Union Station by Mil
itary, Patriotic and Commercial
Organizations.
WASHINGTON', May 27. -Alter
resting for four years less than a
century in the Congressional Ceme
tery in this city, the body of George
Clinton, once Major-General in the
Revolutionary Army, lirst Governor
of New York and a former Vice
tresident of the United States, was
today removed to New York City on
hs way to Kingston, N. Y, for final
interment.
Not since the death of President
McKinley has a funeral been marked
with such elebarotely great honors.
The remains were escorted from the
cemetery to the Union Station by
military, patriotic, civic and commer
cial organizations, representatives of
the State of New York and descend
ants of Governor Clinton. For the
first time in the history of military
funerals, at the request of the War
Department, women participated in
the ceremonies incident to the dis
interment. General Franklin Bell,
chief o staff, U. S. A., was chief mar
shal of the procession.
The troops assembled at the ceme
tery and after receiving the casket,
the crowd marched with it to the
Union Station, where it was received
by representatives of various pa
triotic societies of women On com
pletion of this ceremony the casket
was delivered to the guard of honor.
As the body was carried from the
spot where it had rested for 96 years
to the station, the trumpters and
dnfnimers sounded the general's
march, and the United States Marine
Band played a dirge. In the meantime-
a field battery fired a salute of
19 gnns in honor of the distinguished
dead.
The reinterment will take place in
Kingston on May 30 near the spot
where Clinton took the oath of office
as Governor of New York in 1777.
Rev. Roswell R. Hoes, Chaplain, U.
S. X., a former resident of Kingston,
originated the idea of removing the
body of Governor Clinton to Kings
ton, believing that it should not per
manently rest away from the scene
f the patriot's activity.

OTHER BILLS AGREED TO
After Report Had Been Agreed to
Members Vanished and it Was
With Great Difficulty That Quorum
Had to be Obtained For Roll Call.
WASHINGTON, May 27.-Thc in
terest in the proceedings in the
House today centered in a report of
conferees on the currency bill. After
an hour's debate the report was
adopted 166 to 140, the Democrats
voting against it. Fourteen insurgent
Republicans voted with opposition.
The debate by unanimous consent
was fived at one hour. After the re
port had been agreed to, the members
vanished and it was with great diffi
culty that the quorum had to be ob
tained for by subsequent roll calls.
The conference report on the omni
bus, public lands bill and the Senate
amendments to the bill granting ob
solete ordinance to the various insti
tutions and organizations was also
agreed to. After passing the bill re
vising the tariff laws of the Philip
pines, placing the agricultural ma
chinery and other articles on free list,
the House recessed until tomorrow.
The Democratic Senators spent
much of the day in an informal con
ference among themselves as to the
proper course to pursue with refer
ence to the bill and decided upon a
conference to be held tomorrow as
the best means of affording an oppor
tunity for an exchange of views with
out binding any one. It was decided
to summon all the absent Democratic
Senators to return. Practically the
only point remaining unsettled is the
time when a vote will be taken. No
one doubts that the report be de
veloped and the bill carried. As the
situation now appears, the time for
voting and the consequent final ad
journment of Congress depends
largely upon Senator La Follette. So
far as they have spoken the democrats
are inclined to permit final action
after a comparatively brief consid
eration. They simply desire to enum
erate what they believe to be objec
tionable features of the new bill and
also point out the supposed inconsist
encies of the Republican leaders.
The meeting of the Democrats to
morrow will be a conference and not
a caucus there will be no effort to
bind the participants. La Follette re
fused to outline his probable course
further than to say he voted against
the bill. He was in a conference with
the Democratic leaders at different
times during the day and his bearing
was such as to lead to the conclusion
that if the Democrats would agree to
fight the measure he would assist
them. Aldrich did not expect to speak
on the bill except to make a brief
statement. An opinion was expressed
by Aldrich that the whole bill is more
of half faith cure, and that if he add
ed more it is just what the country
needs.
"The temper of the Senate seems
better now than when the Senate
passd the bill in the first plac," said
Aldrich.
"Even the Democratic senators who
were disposed to vote against the bill
were anxious to get home and it may
be possible to adjourn on Friday.
WASHINGTON, May 27.-The
emergency currency law is assured.

The currency question held its place
today as it practicaly was the only
subject of consideration at both ends
of the capitol and when both Houses
adjourned the compromise bill which
was drafted by Republican conferees
had received the sanction of the
House and has been presented to the
Senate where it was announced it
would be taken up for consideration
tomorrow and where it will also be
passed when the vote is reached.
The day began with a continuance
of yesterday's conference between
the Republicans and Representatives
of the two Houses. This resulted in
a compelte agreement, which being
later presented as a matter of form
to the Democrats the conferees was
shortly after 2 o'clock presented to
the House. There it was up to 3
o'clock discussed for an hour and
passed.
The House had no sooner recorded
its verdict than it was hurried over
to the Senate shortly before 5 o'clock
with the announcement of the ap
proval of the House. The conference
report was read and after reading had
been concluded Aldrich announced
that tomorrow after routine of busi
ness he would move to take up the
report and continue its consideration
ntil it was disposed of. In reply to
a question by Culberson, Aldrich stat
ed that the Democratic conferees of
the Senate and the House bad not
concurred in the conference report.

an awful bearing down feeling
through my hips and loins and
times I suffered so intensely that I
was forced to lie down. The secre

natural in appearance, frequently
causing me much annoyance. I final
