AT THE PRESENT SESSION
ROLL CALL IN CONGRESS
MEETS RUN WITH CASH BT ELECTRICAL DEVICE
Twenty-Eight Senate Demo
crats Favor It, According to
Senator Owen’s Canvass
BY RALPH SMITH.
WASHINGTON, July 24.—Prospects
of currency legislation at this session
of congress were materially brightened
this morning, when Senator Owen an
nounced that a partial oanvass of the
senate Democrats showed that the twen
ty-eight senators approached by him
favor action at this session. He will
continue his canvass today, and hopes
to know tomorrow on just how many
Democrats the administration may de
pend for currency reform “before the
snow flies.” as he puts it.
“I was particularly gratified and
somewhat surprised at the unanimity
of sentiment among the Democrats,”
said Senator Owen. “I approached
twenty-eight senators yesterday, and ev
ery one of them agreed that the party
should get behind the administration
and put through a currency bill at this
session of congress. I believe the house
will give u^s a currency bill within ten
days or two weeks, and immediately the
tariff is out of the way in the senate
the banking and currency committee
will bring on the banking bill for ac
tion in the upper house. We should stick
by the job until it is out of the way.”
There are fifty-one Democrats in tho
senate and the twenty-eight who have
already pledged themselves to currency
legislation compose more than a ma
jority. This makes it practically cer
tain that the senate caucus will at the
proper time consider the currency ques
tion and adopt a resolution for its con
sideration at the special session.
Washington Housewives
Show Senator Tillman
They Can Fry Chicken
(By Associated Press.)
WASHINGTON, July 24.—When
Senator Tillman, of South Carolina,
who is on a diet by order of his physi
cian, declared somewhat peevishly that
“the art of frying chicken was un
known in Washington,” he had not
reckoned with the housewives of the
District of Columbia, many of them
Southerners and jealous of their abil
ity to cook chicken in any fashion.
As a result of the aspersion v indig
nant housewives and a few score admir
ers of the South Carolina statesman
have been inundating him with chicken.
They come by parcel post and by mes
sengers until each day the senator’s
committee room takes on the appear
ance of a picnic ground.
At first Senator Tillman sought to
return the gifts, but virtually none
had the name of the donor on it, al
though many contained notes defying
the senator to decry the fowls or the
cooking. As a result the committee
waste basket is continually filled with
chicken bones and committee clerks
and senate attendants, impressed to
aid in keeping up with the in-coming
supply, are nearing a state of rebell-
supply, are nearing a state of rebellion.
Fort Dearborn National Comes
to Rescue of Kenwood
Trust and Savings
(By Associated Press,)
CHICAGO, July 24.—Just before the
Kenwood Trust and Savings .bank, on
which a run started yesterday because
of vague rumors, opened for business to-
da® an automobile from the Fort Dear
born National bank drew up before the
doors and $200,000 was carried into the
institution to meet demands of depos
itors.
The doors opened at 9 o’clock, but
before anyone was admitted A. K.
Brown, president of the institution,
made the following announcement to the
waiting crowd:
“We are going to open the bank now
and pay every one dollar for dollar. The
Fort Dearborn National bank is behind
us and we have engaged extra tellers
so we can assure you there will be no
delay in cashing your checks.”
Several hundred depositors were paid
during the morning hours and excite
ment in the vicinity subsided.
During the run of yesterday payments
were made promptly to all depositors,
about $100,000 being disbursed.

WANT DEAD LETTER SALE
SCATTERED OVER COUNTRY
Washington Merchants De
clare Sales There Are Un
fair Competition
(By Associated Press.)
WASHINGTON, July 24.—Sale of
uncalled-for and undelivered mass of
mail matter that has accumulated in
the postoffice department during the
year at stipulated points throughout
the country, instead of in the capital,
as has been the case in previous years,
has been requested by the merchants
of Washington. In a petition to Post
master General Burleson today, the re
tail merchants’ association declares the
government through its sale of “dead
le r” matter, enters into competi
tion with them and injuries their
business. The association believes this
competition should be more widely dis
tributed.
In the past “dead letter' matter has
been sold here to the highest bidder
without the contents of the packages
being revealed. The charge that this
was a lettery scheme impelled the de
partment to open all packages and dis
play tiie contents before bids were asked
for. This fact, the merchants declare,
operates to encroach heavily upon their
legitimate trade, and they believe the
rest of tne country should share the
loss.
The postmaster general is asked to
distrfbute the accumulated matter In
lots throughout the country for sale.

WASHINGTON, July 24.—Represen
tative Walsh has suggested a voting
scheme to the house rule committee
which will do away with the dreary and
protracted roll calls that now take up
so much time in the house and which
have proved excellent mediums for ex
asperating filibusters.
Mr. Walsh, who is an expert elec
trician, would have installed an electric
bulletin board with an alphabetical list
of the names of all members contained
thereon. Opposite each name would be
two bull’s eye lamps, one red, which,
when flashed, would indicate that the
member had voted “yes”; the other blue,
which would signal the intention of the
member to vote “nay.”
The totals on the board would be
automatically totalled, and the house
could see at a glance how every member
voted, together with the result.
Under Mr. Walsh’s scheme, wires
would lead from the bulletin to the seat
of every member. Each switch operat
ing the recording socket would have its
individual key, thus safeguarding the
voting member at all times.
Mr. Walsh told the committee that
he had worked out the details of the
proposed plan and that he was con
vinced of its efficacy. ,The committee
took no action, but may give Mr.
Walsh a further hearing.

(By Associated Press.)
CANTON, July 24.—Trade throughout
southern China has been paralyzed by
the proclamation of the independence of
the province of Kwang-Tung. The in
cident has created a feeling of great
anxiety here. Stores have been close**
and many of the merchants have tele
graphed to shippers not to consign
goods here for the present.
A great many people have left the
city in junks and otners nave gone
north on foot. Thousands more have
flocked into the Portuguese colony of
Macao and into Hong Kong.
Among the latter are many officers
who have retired from their post carry--
ing with them millions of dollars in sil
ver and paper money.
There is a strong feeling of resent
ment throughout the southern provinces
against the policy of Provisional Presi
dent Yuan Shi Kai, but it is felt in
most quarters that it will be impossible
to resent him long, as he commands a
large trained army, possesses money
and has the support of the great
powers.
The fact that the merchants of Hong
Kong do not sympathize with the in
dependence movement Is * regarded
among foreign observers as a sign that
the revolt will be short lived.

WASHINGTON, July 24.—Home rule,
in part at least, for users of the na

lect a committee, an agreement on the
part of which shall be binding upon
the association, such committee, upon

receive notice of proposed action and
have an opportunity to be heard by the
local forester in fererence to any pro
posed changes likely to affect materially
their use of the forests.

Secretary of the Interior Franklin K.

“I believe that Alaska should be aided

“The first step should be a government-

BALTIMORE, Md., July 24.—A piece
of Greek sculpture, the bust of a girl
child of about five years of age. stolen
from the National museum at Athens
fifteen years ago, said to be of priceless
value and 3,000 years old, was recovered
by the local police today. The figure
was dug up in the cellar of Charles
Nemphos, a Greek confectioner, at
Hampden, a suburb.
Search for t he bust was instituted
here after Dr. Alexander Vouros, Greek
charge at Washington, called on Federal
Attorney Hill.
To Major Hill was unfolded the story
of the bust’s disappearance, of the ef
forts of the European governments to
recover it for the past decade and of
clues involving a Baltimore Greek.
Major Hill decided that it was a
problem for the local police, and a
search wararnt for Nemphes’ home was
issued. *
It was only after Nemphos had been
subjected to a “third degree” lasting
all night that he broke down and show
ed where the bust was buried. Under
his direction the officers began digging.
Three feet down they unearthed the
head of the figure, broken off at the
shoulders. A few more handfuls of^
earth were upturned and the bust was"
revealed.
The relic was taken charge of by
the police and Nemphos was locked up
on the technical charge of receiving
stolen goods.
According to Nemphos, he came into
possession of the figure ten or eleven
years ago. He obtained it, he said,
from a fellow countryman -he had em
ployed and to whom he lent money, tak
ing the bust as security. This man said
it came from Athens and “was worth
much money.”
Information which led to recovery of
the bust was furnished to the Greek le
gation by a relative of Nemphos, with
whom he had quarreled.
The figure, which is of marble, is said
to be one of the finest samples extant
of the sculpture of the Archaic period.
Its age is placed at least 3,000 years.
While it has a money value of $250,000
because of its sentimental and histori
cal associations, yet it is regarded by
the Greek authorities as almost price
less.

BAD ROADS CAUSE BIG
LOSS TO THE FARMERS
Counties Rich in Agricultural
Possibilities Losing Money
Because of Bad Roads
(By Associated Press.)
WASHINGTON, July 24.—Where bad
roads prevail farmers are forced to
move their crops, not when the market
price is favorable, but when the roads
are favorable, and frequently at heavy
pecuniary loss as a result, according to
the office of public roads of the depart
ment of agriculture. In a statement
issued today it cites specific cases of
such losses, the information being based
on reports by its experts.
“Excessive fluctuations in market
prices are seldom due to over produc
tion,” the statement asserts. “They
frequently take place in regions where
the local production does not equal the
consumption. There are counties rich
in agricultural possibilities, burdened
with bad roads, where the annual in
coming shipments of food Scceed the
outgoing shipments in the ratio of four
to one. Many such counties, with ifn-
proved roads, not only become self-sup
porting, but would ship products to
other markets.”

to overshoot his mark. Aviator W. S.
Luckey, of New York, who is making
exhibition flights at the Isle of Palms

machine tore its pontoon through the
sand straight for a board ^alk 500 feet

Luckey failed to rise over the walkway.
He shut off his engine, the sudden stop
throwing him high into the air and
nearly under the feet of the crowd,
while the machine flopped after him,
barely missing crushing the aviator.
Luckey was practically unhurt. The
