SENATE REGULARS
TALK COMPROMISE
Some of "Milder" Progressives
at Taft's Conference Also
Suggest Reconciliation
WASHINGTON, May 15.— Whether it
is feasible at this late day to wipe out
republican factional lines and meet on
some common ground that would unite
the insurgents and regulars is the
question before republican leaders. It
was raised last night at a conference at
the White House, which began at 10:30
o'clock and continued until 1:15 o'clock
this morning.
A great many things were talked
over at the midnight gathering and a
revised legislative program was made
up tentatively which, if is believed,
would command the votes'of practically
all regular republicans. A discussion
followed on the possibility of making
certain concessions that might attract
all the republicans of the senate.
Practically all the republican sena
tors from the west were present last
night except the most radical progres
sives, Senators La Follette, Beveridge,
Cummins, Dolliver, Bristow and Clapp.
Among the progressives who attended
were Senators Nelson, Borah, Brown,
Burkett, Dlxon, Gamble and Crawford.
These men expressed the opinion that
the differences between the insurgents
and regulars were not irreconcilable.
DEMOCRATS HAD FRAJHEUF 5
The sudden amalgamation of insur
gents and regulars of the senate last
Friday, which resulted in the adpotion
of an amendment to the administration
bill on the subject of long and short
hauls, appeared to have made the reg
ulars more tolerant of progressive
views on the pending measure. The
"getting together" was necessitated by
the discovery that the democrats had
formed a solid front to secure the adop
tion of a democratic provision relating
to long and short hauls, which was to
have been put in motion after they had
voted with the regular republicans to
defeat the Dixon amendment, favored
by the insurgents.
It would be difficult to decide
whether the regulars or the Insurgents
were the more surprised when they
learned the plans of the democrats. A
vote had been ordered, under ihe unan
imous consent agreement, and there
was little time for thought Senator
Aldrich advised his colleagues it was
time to get together. The insurgents,
after learning the situation, acquiesced
and both factions acted accordingly.
ALL WILL CONFER
Neither republican faction got ex
actly what it wanted, but the vote
demonstrated they could "unite
against a common enemy." At the
White House last night there -was
some comment on this fact, and it was
argued If this could be done on the
long and short haul amendment to the
railway bill the case of the remainder
of the administration program was not
hopeless. t
When the senate tomorrow resumes
consideration of the railroad bill it Is
expected there will be a number of in
formal conferences. Senators Borah,
Nelson, Dlxon and others, who have
voted with a.nd against the older re
publican leaders of the senate, are ex
pected to act as the Intermediaries
where necessary. It would not be sur
prising if an agreement were reached
during the week for a vote on the rail
road bill. With this subject out of the
way it will be possible to speculate
upon a day for adjournment.
The insurgents and regulars of the
republican majority In the house are
now working in some semblance of
harmony and President Taft appeared
satisfied last night with the prospects
for his program. The president will
devote himself this week principally
to conference with senators and rep
resentatives on * the subject in con
gress.
Many decisions of great importance
are expected to be handed down tomor
row by the supreme court of the United
States. Among other decisions expect
ed is that Involving the constitution
ality of the corporation tax.
COLLEGE GIRL CLIMBS
TREE AND BREAKS ARM
Student Starts to Study in Oak
and Drops 20 Feet
[Special Dispatch to The Call]
STANFORD UNIVERSITY, May 15.—
A limb, well shaded and high up'in an
oak tree, today tempted Gladys Marie
Mattingly of San Francisco. She
climbed, fell 20 feet and broke her arm.
Miss Mattingly and her chum, Rose
F. Sturla, feeling that their study was
being interfered with by the excessive
heat, conceiveJ the idea of
among the top branches of a big oak
tree which grows across the street
from their boarding house and study
ing there in comfort.
They were no more than seated in
the tree when Miss Mattingly fell. The
screams of both girls attracted several
of the Phi Gamma Delta fraternity
boys, who live near by, and they ran
to their assistance.
Miss Sturla was so frightened by the
accident to her friend that she was
persuaded with difficulty to ' descend
from her lofty position, even with the
assistance of the boys.
Miss Mattingly's left arm was broken
just above the wrist, and her left siJe
was severely bruised.
Miss Mattingly registers in the , de
partment of graphic arts from San
Francisco and is a member of the ju
nior class. Miss Sturla registers from
Mountain View, and is a graduate stu
dent in the department of history.
INDEPENDENTS GIVEN
MUCH STEEL WORK
40,000 Tons Ordered, Mainly
for Structural Purposes
NEW YORK, May 15.— 1t Is signifi
cant that although the railroads placed
few orders for br\dges last week, con
tracts for structural and fabricated
steel \u25a0 were heavy, aggregating 40,000
tons. The Steel corporation secured
only about 2,500 tons of the total, los
ing the business to independent com
panies because of the inability of the
Carnegie steel company to supply the
American bridge company with struc
tural shapes under two months, while
competitors are making deliveries in
a few weeks.
There has been active competition
among independent factories and struc
tural mills , for business, and prices
have continued low, especially in the
eastern territory.
Railroads are giving small support
to the steel mills directly, but includ
ing mining cars arid a part of .the Har
riman purchases contracts were placed
last week for ,4,500 cars. Locomotive
orders aggregated 109. Rail contracts
were only 30,000 tons.

The reaching of this mutual agree
ment between the Pacific motor car
company and the Studebakera marks
the final chapter in the great consoli
dation of the E-M-F company and the
Studebakers. It put the scheme of
distribution of the -popular E-MtF line
of cars, the E-M-F "30": and the Flan
ders "20" back upon the basis # of last
year. It is considered by all concerned
as- a: most amicable and simple settle
ment of a deal which for a p time was
exceedingly intricate and involved.
; Speajdng of the transaction Weaver
said yesterday:
"Our transaction with the Pacific mo
tor car -company, is a mutual agree
ment -vrhereby the Studebakers gain im
mediate control of all the E-M-F and
Flanders cars held by the Pacific peo
ple for our distribution throughout the
states >of, California and Nevada. It
also gives; us "the absolute control of
the retail trade of the E-M-F line in
San Francisco, Alameda, Contra Costa
and Marin^ counties. The situation, in
other words, reverts to its condition
during the year 1909. It is the final
stepin the consolidation of the Stude
baker and the, E-M-F interests all over
the country. It is a most amicable and
simple settlement of a deal which at
tracted worldwide attention."
-Colonel Bert Lundy in the recent
Mason demonstration in Nevada made
\u25a0\u25a0\u25a0--\u25a0\u25a0\u25a0 - a marvelous- run
from Reno to Yer
ington, covering
the- distance in 2
-hours and. ss min
utes in-his Dorris car, shattering the
previous record by nearly 60 minutes.
Lundy was accompanied by his wife
and Mr. and Mrs. Charles Sadlier. The
start was made at 7:50 o'clock in the
morning and in one hour and three
minutes Virginia City was reached.
This, however, equaled a performance
Lundy made •in a Dorris last year.
Through the city sped the car and over
the road bejcond until at 10:45 it came
to a standstill in front of the Yerington.
hotel.
The occupants of the car knew that a
record 1 was being set and there was
little conversation, each one entering
into the spirit of the trip. Lundy re
ported the roads as fairly good outside
of Washoe county. He said:
-. "As s.pon as you get into Washoe
county you can tell it by the condition
of the roads." All those, who made
the ..trip to Mason in motor cars cor
roborated Lundy"s statement. Lundy's
mind isunow at ease, and those who
have made the trip say that it will be
some time before the record made be
tween Reno and Yerington is lowered.
