The most sen sational and drastic attempt to throttle a filibuster ever made in the United States sennted seemed doomed to fail ure this afternoon. Republican members and their allies, tho seven democrats who revoTled agaist their party leaders, defeated the friends of the government ship purchase bill on every trial of strength. Twice during the day's session the upper house decided that a proposal by Hen-, afor Heed thut senators be kept in the chamber constantly as long as the body was in session, could be debated as long as any sonator wished to talk. On the first test of strength the vote resulted 38 to 3il against the adniinistraion forces and ou the second test 40 to 38. The net result of Heed's proposal was not to block the filibuster but actually to widen the scope of the de bate and furnish new subjects for the filibustering republicans to discuss. If thc senate should adopt Hood's pro posal, it would mean that a vote (in tho ship purchase bill would havo to come when the eudiiraneo of the filibustering seutors hud been exhausted. It would be impossible, under the Heed plan, for the filibustered toi divide themselves into watches, some sleeping while tho otiiers filibustered, thus prolonging in definitely the session of the senate. Today's session was merely a con tinuation of thnt M'hich began at 10 o'clock Monday and which was carried through lust night by a long speech by Senator Jones of Washington. "Seeing the hopelessness of passing his continuance-attendance resolution, Sen ator Hood later attempted to withdraw it. The republicans objected and Heed then moved thnt it be tubled, which would kill it. This was done without a rollcall. ' Senator Hitchcock, of Xebrnska, of fered a sarcastic substitute fur tho Heed resolution pivvnting further cau cuses and conferences between senators and I'residilit Wilson and ordering all members to vote their own convictions. "I don't criticize the president," said Hitchcock. "He is a ninn with strong convictions, wild nuturally will make every ettort to carry them out. I do criticize the weuk-kneeded subser viency on the part of the men in a co ordinate branch of the government."

(Former European Manager of tho United Tress.) New York, Feb. 9. Count Von Zep pelin, defending the killing of civilians by nirship, asks how it is possible to tell where even a cannon shell will strike. "For instance," ho added, "sholls from the new Kriipp guns have a re ported range of 42 Kilometers." Forty-two kilomotors equul 26 Amer ican miles. Hep rts have been circulat ed since tho outbreak of the war that Germany possesses guns competent to fire across the miles of the Strait of Dover, but Count Von Zeppelin is tho first German of recognized standing to confirm thc rumor. Guns capable of firing into England from tho French coast would be of some value to tho Germans if they could reach Calais and : mount rifles opposite Dover.
