Forty-Seven of Them Stand up
One by One During the Cau

tention to Vote Aye.
ARE NOT BOUND BY
THE CAUCUS ACTION
Resolution That Would Bind
Members to the Bill Without
Amendment is Not Offered
at Meeting.
'WASHINGTON. July S. Forty
Boven democratic senators ftood up
in the party caucus one by one late
Monday and declared their intention
to vote for the Underwood-Simmons
tariff revision bill as finally approved
Ijy the caucus a few minutes pre
viously. Two senators, Ransdell and
Thornton, of Louisiana, stated that
they would not make such promise
because of the proposal to place su
gar on the free list in 1U16. Senators
Hitchcock of Nebraska and Culberson
of Texas were absent, but both are
known to be in favor of the bill. This
irlves the democrats 4 9 votes for the
bill, or a slender majority of one.
With the vote of the vice president
to fall back upon in an emergency.
An absolute binding resolution was
not adopted, the poll by individuals
being substituted, and that poll was
put only on the ground of personal
promise- and was not made binding.
A resolution was adopted, however,
declaring the Underwood-Simmons
bill a party measure and urging its
undivided support without amend
ment unless such should be submitted
by the committee. Sen. Newlands of
Nevada cast the only vote against
this resolution, but Senators Shafroth
of Colorado, llansdell and Thornton
did not vote.
The resolution was as follows:
"Resolved. That the tariff bill
agreed to by this conference in its
amended form, is declared to be a
party me;isuro and we urge its un
divided .support as a duty by demo
cratic senators without amendment. !
Provided, however, '.hat the confer
once or the llnance committee may
after reference or otherwise propose
amendments to the bill."
Kx press Satisfaction.
Sen. Kern, chairman of the caucus,
Chairman Simmons of the finance ;
committee, who have fought hard for
the measure, and other administra
tion leaders expressed entire satisfac
tion over the outcome of the measure
uml declared their confidence that
noimdi votes were, personally pledged
to assure the passage of the measure
with free wool and free sugar in
cluded. It became apparent at once when
the conference convened that a res
olution which would bind members
absolutely to the bill without amend
ment was distasteful to many sena
tors. The n solution therefore was
modified and presented in the form
of a party declaration. Before this
was put to it vote the motion was
made that the senators be asked flat
ly their views on the subject. After)
tids the roll was called.
On this roll call the !u!siana sen
ators stated tha It was not their in
tention to support the bill without
amendment. Sen. Newlands said he
hail not definitely made up his mind !
as to certain amendments he might
ur;-'e, but in the end it was his in
tention to stand by the party meas
ure. Sen. Shafroth explained that ho
did not want to be bound tp support
the bid but it was his present inten
tion to vote for it.
All Vote for MeaMiure.
All the members present. 4 7, votd
"aye" tn the roll call. These with
Senators Hitchcock and Culberson
aU-viit but accounted for. constituted
th democratic membership of the
senate.
"We are satisfied with this show
ing." said Sen. Simmons Monday
night. "The democrats are on rec
ord in support of the bill. Forty
seven of them answered 'aye' when
their names were called on the motion
to support the bill and two others
declared it their present intention to
Fupport it and said that they did not
know of anything that would cause
them to vote against the party. No
mro could be expected. I am going
over the tinal perfected draft of the
bill for corrections and shall report
it to the senate this week. Thursday
if possible. 1 shall call a nuetin-r of
the full membership of the finance
committee, on Wednesday in all prob
ability. At any rate the bill will be
ready for general debate next week."
We have got the votes, 4 9, with
out the vice president, who can be
relied upon should an emergency
arise," was the statement of Sen.
Hoke Smith a-? he left the caucus.
Sen. Kern made public the resolution
nr.d a statement regarding the roll
call.
Sen. Newlands. in a statement ex
plaining his position, save evidence
of his intention to stand by the party.
Has Certain Defects.
"I voted acalnst making the bill a
party measure," Sen. Newlands said,
"because whilst it is superior to the
existing tariff, it has certain defects
which should be remedied. It discrim
inates against far western products.
The reductions should be apportioned
oer a period of three years instead
of taking effect immediately. Further
reductions on a sliding scale should
be provided for, particularly on food
products and clothing. There should
be. a tariff hoard with power to as
certain facts, make recommendations
to congress and make further reduc
tions under a rule established by con
jTesS'. "Whilst our duties on sugar and
wool should be materially reduced,
we should not take the risk by pre

JOIIANNESHURO. July S. Many
of the gold miners refuse to return to
work. At a meeting Monday after
noon militant leaders delivered fiery
speeches to the 3,000 assembled and
a resolution declaring that the strike
was still on and condemning the
strike leaders was carried.
One of the chief speakers an
nounced the organization of a new
union of South African workers,
which, ho said, would be . a revolu
tionary party. Efforts are now being
made at Uraamfontcln to bring out
the railway workers.
A dispute is on over the actual
terms of settlement which Gen.
Botha, the ex-premier, and Gen.
Smuts, minister of mines, made with
the unions. The unionists assert that
they insisted that the government
provide for miners whose places were
taken by strike breakers, until new
places should be found for them, and
also that the leaders claimed amnesty
for the rioters, Gen. Botha replying
that that was a matter for the de
partment of justice, but giving the
impression that he favored amnesty.
Club Ls llarricadcd.
Attempts to dynamite the Rand
club and other buildings are feared.
The club is barricaded and armed
members patrol the premises day and
night. The residences of the mine
owners are guarded by soldiers. An
attempt to destroy the railroad be
tween Johannesburg and Germiston
was made during the night, but fail
ed. The only newspaper published
Monday was a four-page sheet issued
by the Printers' union.
Twelve thousand members of the
trades unions marched Monday at
the funeral of the victims of the riots.
The Right Rev. Michael Bolton Furse,
lord bishop of Pretoria, who officiated,
begged the multitude to return to
their homes peacefully, out of re
spect for the dead. The spokesman
of the Trades Federation made a sim
ilar appeal. "Disperse quietly," he
said. "Ret none say that we are a
disorganized rabble."
Among the wreaths was one from
the socialist party inscribed: "In
memory of our martyrs, foully mur
dered in cold blood by the capitalist
class."
At the end of the ceremony the
socialists assembled outside the ceme
tery and sang, "The Red Flag."

FOUR INSTITUTIONS IN
HANDS OF RECEIVERS
Press Agent is Responsible For
Charge That Government is
to Blame But it is Quickly
Recalled.
PITTSBURGH. July 8. The First
Second National bank of Pittsburgh,
the First National bank of McKces
port. a neighboring city, the American
Water Works and Guarantee Co. and
the banking house of J. S. and W. S.
Kuhn, Inc., of this city, were forced
into the hands of receivers Monday,
through tne failure of the first
named Institution to open its doors
Monday morning.
The closing of the First-Second
National bank was ordered by the
deputy comptroller of the currency,
T. P. Kane, after every effort had
been made to meet the government
requirements as to the legal reserve.
The Kuhn "banking house has ex
tensive interests in irrigation projects
throughout .the west, and mines and
street traction systems throughout
western Pennsylvania, besides being a
dominant factor in the American
Water Works and Guarantee Co.
W. S. Kuhn was president of the
First-Second National bank, vice
president and director in the bank
ing house, and vice president and di
rector of the American Water Works
and Guarantee Co., besides being a di
rector of the McKeesport bank.
J. S. Kuhn was a director of the
First-Second National bank, president
and director of the American Water
Works and Guarantee Co., president
and director of the McKeesport bank
and chairman of the board of direct
ors of the banking house.
When it was learned that the banks
would have to suspend business
steps were taken to protect the Amer
ican Water Works and Guarantee Co.
and the Kuhn's banking hous- and
application was made in the lederal
court Monday afternoon for receivers
for both institutions.
Throughout the day a statement of
the banks and affected companies' af
fairs was awaited with feverish anx
iety, but none was forthcoming until
Monday night when Mr. Kane made
a formal statement. No statement
of the condition of the bank was ob
tainable subsequent to the one issued
June 4. on the last bank call of the
comptroller.
Ksup Statement.
Monday night Mr. Kane issued the
following:
"At a meeting of the directors of
the First-Second National bank held
on Sunday, the condition of the bank
artd the results of the recent investi
gation of the bank examiners were
discussed. After full consideration,
the directors declared their inability
to make good the bank's impaired
capital and without dissent decided
that it would be best for the nrotec-
tion of depositors and all other inter
ests to have the comptroller of the
currency to take charge and to ar
range for the liquidation of the bank.
"The Pittsburgh clearing house
committee, which has been engaged
for the past four days in going over
the affairs of the bank with the ex
aminers and, in making a carcf 'in
vestigation as to its condition, re
fused to furnish funds sufficient to
justify the bank in keeping its doors
open, and agreed under the circum
stances there was no alternative to
the course recommended by the
bank's directors.
"The oflicers of the- bank have ex
pressed to the department the belief
that there will ultimately be but little
if any loss to the bank's depositors.
The liquidation of the bank, and the
distribution of its assets will proceed
as expeditiously as possible."
After a protracted meeting of the
Pittsburgh clearing, house association
this Institution Monday night issued
this statement:
Was' Not Unexpected.
"The closing of the First-Second
National bank by the deputy comp
troller of the currency was not en
tirely unexpected by this association
and it was therefore prepared for the
crisis. The members of the clearing
house are all In good condition and
we believe that the banks and trust
companies in the city of Pittsburgh,
as a whole, are prepared for any
emergency. It will take several days
to arrange for the transfer of accounts
and the proper and careful handling
of checks made on the First-Second
National bank. We therefore ask the
indulgence of the public and request
that they will help in every way
possible to assist in the solution of
the problem which confronts the
clearing house committee and the
banks."
During the early hours of the day,
a run was made on the Pittsburgh
Hank for Savings, another Kuhn in
stitution, because of the climax of af
fairs of the First-Second National.
All demands up to $50 were paid
without question. and notice for
larger amounts were asked, running
30, 60 and 90 days, according to the
amount demanded by the depositor.
This institution also made a state
ment that it had J5. 000, 000 In cash
and quick assets and was prepared for
any emergency. The run was over
before the closing of the banking
hours, and it is not thought any anx
iety over this Institution need be felt.
Two Hanks Merged.
The former First National bank,
which was accredited as one of the
strongest banks in the country was
liicxficd with the Second .National

bank last March, the merged institu
tion taking the name of the two banks.
Monday upon the closing of the
merged institution, a statement was
sent broadcast by a press agent for
the Kuhn interests in which a di
rector of the bank, "whose name could
not be used," was quoted as saying
the government was unjust and was
treating the bank unfairly. The
statement further quoted the unnamed
director as saying the government was
responsible for the merger of the two
banks, because it was sanctioned by
Lawrence Murray, then comptroller
of the currency.
The statement was almost immedi
ately recalled by the distributors of
the report, but the recall in many
cases was ignored.
Previous to the bank merger, the
Kuhns were identified with the First
National bank of Allegheny, on the
north side of the city. This fact
caused many rumors that this bank
too had closed its doors. The reports
was unfounded, however, for the
Kuhns disposed of their interests and
resigned from all connection with the
bank some months ago.
Kuhns in Charge.
When application was made in the
federal court Monday afternoon for
receivers for the two Kuhn concerns,
Judge C. P. Orr appointed for the
J. S. and W. S. Kuhn Co., inc., the
two Kuhns and J. K. Duff, treasurer
of the banking house.
For the American Water Works and
Guarantee Co. were appointed J. S.
and W. S. Kuhn, J. H. Purdy, gen
eral manager of the company, with
a fourth to be appointed. Judge On
being of the opinion that one of the
receivers should be one having no fi
nancial interest in the company. The
receivers are required to furnish
$50,000 bonds.
The affairs of the First-Second Na
tional Monday are in the hands of
C. C. Murray, who has been appoint
ed receiver. Bank men are taking
some reassurance in this appointment
because of Mr. Murray's successful
winding up of the affairs of the de
funct Allegheny National and Fort
Pitt National banks several years ago.
Mr. Murray was a former bank exam

CHICAGO, July S. Seven hydro
aeroplanes will start Tuesday from
Chicago on a water and air trip to
Detroit, 900 miles' around the shore
of the lower peninsula of Michigan.
Tho machines, each carrying a
driver and a passenger will rise at
noon and head south of east to Mich

carry out the schedule, the machines
will have to average 40 miles an hour

An unexpected dive into Chicago
harbor today wrecked Glenn Martin's
machine and spoiled his chance for
getting away promptly with the other
competitors Tuesday. Martin, with
Charles Day, builder of the machine,
was making a trial flight when a sud
den dip immersed the float of one
wing and the machine and aviators
shot to the bottom of the harbor.
The men were rescued with difficulty
and tiie machine had to be dis
mantled before it could be pulled out
of the lake. Other contestants offer
ed the help of their mechanics and It
is possible Martin will start late in
the Detroit flight, hoping to catch up
with the rest of the flyers.
The flyers are expected to cover the
900 mile course by July 17.

Heard Screams.
WILKES-HAUIU:. Pa.. July 8.
Charged with the brutal murder of
his pretty sweatheart. Ali Crisp
well. IN. Herbetr Johns. stoutly
denied Tuesday his guilt in the tragic
death of Miss Crispwell in Harvey's
Lake on the night of the fourth of
July.
Johns and the girls have been lov
ers for a long time. July 4, he left
this city to visit her at Harvey where
she was employed as a domesthi.
He was last seen with the girl that
night, but returned to this city early.
When the girl did net return to her
home it was thought she was staying
with her employer.
When a letter reached the Crisp
well home from Herbert Johns ad
dressed to Alice, the girl's father be
came alarmed and infrtituted a search.
Cottagers had heard a girl's frantic
screams for help on the night of the
fourth and later the body of the girl
was found iloatins: on the water.
Johns was immediately suspected
and last night placed under arrest.
He denied the crime. He said he
left the girl about a mile from her
home and started back as he was
not feeling well. Johns points out
that if he knew his sweetheart was
dead he would not have written to
her last Sunday. Mr. and Mrs, S. T.
Nicholson passed Johns that nigth
and heard the screams of the girl.
The doctor's examination revealed
no cause for the tragedy. The girl
was young and pretty and was known
to be attached to Johns.
S SHOULD
FORGET CONGRESS
Marshall Says Industries Should
Stand on Own Feet and Go
After Undeveloped Markets.
CINCINNATI, July S. Vice-President
Marshall, in a remarkable in
asserted that the American business
man should forget the congress for
the next ten years.
"When business is in a state of
mind where it regards the congress
as the creature that opens and closes
its doors every day," he continued,
"you are going to have money spent
around the capitol.
"These sums may be spent proper
ly, and they may not. The principle
is that they are bound to be spent,
and that is a part cf the business
system as conducted under the pres
ent Ideas of the American business
man that they be spent.
Hurts I!iilncvi Men."
"The American business man ought
to forget the lawmakers. He does
not need to depend on this law or
that. It only hurts him as a suc
cessful producer.
"The lobby will end naturally when
the business man stands on his own
feet and is ready to give and take
with the whole world. There ls no
need for alarm in regard to our bus
iness. Markets being opened In
South and Central America will give
us enough trade to keep every fac
tory in this country running twenty
four hours a day, six days in tho
week. The lobby investigation and
the new ariff are simply going to
force the American business man t j
show what he can really do and to
get rid of the idea that his business
depends on the congress.
"I do not think we shall ever have
free trade. My idea is that we shall
reach the level 0f the Walker tariff,
in force before the civil war, in which
the duties were on a basis of 20 pr
cent ad valorem. This much tariff
is necessary for revenue.'
