Tho Clayton omnibus anti-trust bill second on the program was passed by a vote of 273 to 5 1. The houso then prepared to voto on tho third and last of tho trust measures, tho rail road capitalization bill. WASHINGTON, Juno 3. Tho rail road securities bill was completed to day by tho house. A substitute for tho original Rayburn bill, giving tho Inter-Stnto Commcrco Commission power of prior approval over all rail road security Issues, was adopted without amendment. This placod tho houso in a position to voto finally on the three measures making up tho administration anti-trust program.

LONDON, Juno 5. Maty Rlom flcld, daughter of Iady Sarah Louisa Illoniflcld, widow of Sir Arthur Worn field, was tho woman who created the sensational scene at Buckingham I'alacc last night, when sho threw herself on her kheca before King Ceorgo and Queen Mary. Miss Illomfleld nlono wis con cerned In the Incident, nlthough her ilstcr. who also attended the court, was requested to leave the palnce af ter tho occurrence, despite tho fact that she took no part Id tho demon stration. Sho left without protest. King Kept Cool Officials of tho palace toda were on tho vcrxc of nervous prostration as the result of last night's see no and tho lord chamberlain's depart ment has taken every precaution to circumvent any attempt to repeat the performance tonight when another function takes place at Buckingham I'alacc. Persons In tho Immcdtato vicinity at tho time say the scene lasted less than ten seconds and tho woman had only time to ejaculate audibly: "Your Majesties! For God's sake " when she was seized and hustled out of tho throne room, finishing the sentence us she went. King George was the coolest man In tho company and the presentations proceeded after tho Incident with clockwork regularity. It Is understood no further cctlon will bo taken against Miss Olomfleld, except to bar her from future court functions. The sisters obtained admission to court In tho ordinary way, through application to the lord chamberlain's department. Public Inflnmetl Recent discourtesies shown by mil Itants to tho king and tuo burning down of many churches havo In flamed public opinion to a remark able degree i'coplo havo been still Iurther Incensed by what is re garded as tho well-grounded belief that much of tho work of lcs.truc- tlon Is dono by hired hands well paid out of tho bulging coffers of tho Women's Social and Political Union. Cases havo been reported of women leaving other employment to join tho militants, not from love o' tho cause, but "because the pay is better." I'ollco magistrates havo warned suffragette prisoners that It they had not been protected by tho pollco they would almost certainly havo suffered at tho hands of tho Irato public. The ugly temper shown by th crowd at recent mllitaut demonstrations seems to support this vlow. Greater activity on tho part of tho government Js expected.
