Harrlsburg, Pa., May 25. In the sen ate this morning Mr. Vaughan intro duced a bill to nbollsh the restriction us to rate of interest to be paid for temporary loans in building and loan associations. When the bill providing for an ap propriation of some $66,000 to pay the expenses of the Andrews Senatorial Investigating committee came up for llnal passage a warm discussion was precipitated. On final passage the bill passed by a vote'pf 28 to 11. The henate passed on second read ing the act relating to cilmlnal libel The senate adjourned until tomonow. The resolutions adopted at a meet ing of citizens of Philadelphia yester day were presented to the house by Mr. Smith, of Philadelphia. The res olutions protest against the passage of the "Ripper" bill, the Itodgeis classi fication bill, the Spatz bill and the Becker bills. Tho house staited In today to hold three sessions with bills on third read ing as the order of business. Speaker Boyer Is detained at his home by ill ness and Mr. Holies, of Philadelphia, pieslded. During the morning session eleven bills were considered on sec ond reading or special orders. Those of most general Interest are the three reform bills, endorsed by the state Re publican convention They are the non-political Interference, non-assessment and poll tax bills, and were tak en up in the older named. They will be considered tomorrow on special or ders on third reading and final pas fcage. farr bill defeated. The feature of tho afternoon session was the defeat on llnal passage of the Farr bill, making eight hours a day's work for mechanics, laborers and woik ingmen In the employ of the state or municipal corporations or otherwise engaged on public works. This Is one of the measures In which the Pennsyl vania Labor association Is directly In terested, and it was thought It would' go through with practically no oppo sition. Mr. Bliss, of Delaware, Mi Hariis, of Clearfield, and Mr Seho lleld, of Clearfield, spoke against tho bill It was voted down by 89 ayes to 48 nays, less than a constitutional ma jority voting in the affirmative. The Grady resolutlcn for a committee of thiee peirators. three icpresentatlvos and three citizens to inquire into the insurance business In tho state and le port to the next legislature came up for concuncnee. and Mr rnmv rr Lucerne. Mild it looked to him as if this commission wos to be ctcated to hide tiaek the Investieatlon of the $50,000 insurance scandal an! that the house would make a mistake If It passed the itf olutlon. Mr. Voorhets, of Philadelphia, de clnitd tKU the insurance companies have raised a pool lo be used all over the Unite, Slates to kill legislation det rimental to theii inteiests. It is chaig ed lhat tin to was insurant lobbvlsts now on the door and that thcie have been for ycuts and years. THE INSURANCE TRUST. Mr Baldwin, of Delaware, said the Insurance tiust was the gieatest in this county and that this was a step toward bt caking It uo He claimed this trust cat ilrs out openly every year &.

There's a good many kinds of neckties. There's the 50c, tie that looks like a 25c. tie. There's the 25c. tie that shows plainly it's a 25c. tie. Then there's a 25c. tie that looks like a 50c. tie. That's the kind we are showing in our corner window. They cost more per dozen than most merchants will pay for a 25c. tie. But we give it gladly. Here they are in every conceivable shape and color. Ready tied and the kind you tie yourself. Choice 5 SAMTER BROS. between ten and fifteen million dollars. Mr. Stewait, of Philadelphia, wan op posed to the resolution but ho bollovcd if tho committee was appointed It would be used to threaten the Insur ance companies connected with tho scandal with adverse legislation It they submitted the evidence which they claimed to have against cot tain senat ors. Mr. Voorhecs said ho would go as fnr ns Ills colleague (Mr. Stewart) to lin eal th the Insurance scandal. This res olution has no connection with that In vestigation nnd it was unfair to try to couple the two. The main question was finally put pnd a loll call wps taken on the lesolu tlon, the house refusing to concur by yeas ip, nays 134. EVENING SESSION.
