Washington.—President Wilson will abide by the democratic caucus' ac tion in abandoning rural credits legis lation at this session of congress. Representative Glass of Virginia, chairman of the banking and curren cy committee, today conferred with the president and explained that in his opinion the federal reserve bank act will extend credit aggregating $500,000,000 on farm lands. This will, in a measure, cover the same ground for which the rural credits act was designated. Moreover it was pointed out that the rural credits bill framed by the Bulkley sub-committee was not broad enough in its provisions to sat isfy many administration leaders. The president especially desires that the rural credit act should extend credit to the tenant farmer and the Rulkiey measure provided credit only for land owners. In the opinion of the presi dent it would take many weeks to dis cuss and frame a rural credits meas ure acceptable to a majority of the house. The house today began adjusting it self to the new legislative program of concentration on anti-trust bills and appropriation measures with adjourn ment in contemplation by July 10. House leaders, under the caucus hound program, will insist that the convention anti-trust bill, the Clay ton anti-trust bill and the Rayburn hill for federal regulation of railroad stocks and bonds be passed in the or- Most delightful hotel in America for a Summer Vacation THE PLAZA NEW YORK Fifth Avenue and Fifty-ninth Street Delightfully located opposite Central Park, assuring peace and quiet.

New York.—“ Bald Jack" Rose, the informer, underwent the ordeal of cross-examination today at the trial of Chas. Becker for the murder of Herman Rosenthal. Martin T. Manton, of Becker’s coun sel,, hurled at him a long list of ques tions intended to bring out the life the witness had led. Rose calmly met each implication, denying that he had engaged in petty larcenies, that he had been asociated with women of the streets, that he had been a “steerer” for an opium den. Rose said his acquaintance with Ro senthal dated back 25 years. They had been twice associated in busi ness. He denied that they had quar reled when this business connection was dissolved. It is a contention of the defense that Rosenthal was the victim of a gamblers' war. The defense introduced transcripts of yesterday's testimony and from the first trial showing certain discrepan cies in the matter of meetings be tween Rose and Becker. Rose admit ted the discrepancies but did not ex plain them. SENSATION FLOUR has strenqth, color and flavor. Every sack guaranteed.
