"EH HITS" BILL pi Measure in Which Ne groes Are Interested Approved Finalh r in the Senate, 33 to 11 ♦ PENITENTIARIES PLAN ADOPTED . Upper Branch Votes in Favor of Con-! solidating of Eastern and Western Institution Third Class City; Amendments Pass ■ . The session of the Senate last night was one of the liveliest held this year, the approaching windup evidently hav-! ing set the Senators on edge. The %st thrili of the evening was when the special order for the consid eration of the "equal rights bill" was reached, it being on final passage. This bill guarantees equal rights to all, re gardless of race, creed or color, in all ; places of accommodation or amusement. ; it had been hanging 'by the eyelids for J some time in the Senate, the evident j intention 'being to let it die, but its progenitors were too smart for the op ponents aiul succeeded in having a spe cial order fixed for its consideration on final passage in the Senate at 10.30 last i night. Early in the evening the Democratic j Senators held a caucus to decide how they would vote, but took no action as { Senators Hilton and Stewart gave no-1 tice that they would not be bound by a caucus decision. Senator Washbcrs, who presided at the caucus, decided that unless all were bound 'by the decision of the caucus it was useless to take a vote, so the caucus adjourned. When the bill was taken up in the 'Senate a large delega tion of colored men was present, but there was no talking for or against the i bill. It passed finally by 33 votes to j 11 against it. Shortly after the equal rights bill j was disposed of the Walton bill relat-j ing to third class cities, prepared by | the State City Solicitors' Association at its recent meeting in IHarrisburg, the companion of a similar bill killed in the Senate, came up on final passage, j This is the bill familiarly called "the third class city bill,'' as it has been ] so drawn as to smooth out kinks in the original Clark bill. Cities Bill Passes Finally When the measure was read Senator ' Beidleman moved to have it sent back ' to the committee on Municipal Corpora-j tions for amendment. Very strenuous j objection was made to this bv Senator j Clark, the author 0 f the original bill. After some discussion the Beidleman j motion was defeated by a viva voce vote and then (Mr. Beidleman moved J that the Senate go into committee of i the whole for general amendment of the j bill. Senator Clark opposed the motion I and it was defeated. The bill then | passed finally and now goes to the Gov-1 ernor. At 11 O'CIOCK the Kast and West had a small tournament over the bill J for the consolidation at the new pen-1 itentiary in Centre county of the West ern and Eastern penitentiaries. The Centre county institution will take the place of the Western institution, but the object i„s to 'bring the two penitentiaries ! together for the benefit of the prisoners, | who will have a 'big farm on which to ! work, plenty of opportunity to get fresh j air and, it is contended, become better ! citizens. The passage or the bill nieant j the doing away with the Eastern peni tentiary in Philadelphia, anil Senators McNic'hol, Daix, ißuckman, Salus, Par ley and Vare made vigorous opposition to the bill's passage, while 'Senators!

Compensation Bill Reported About 1 o'clock this morning Sen* ator Crow reported from the Commit tee on Corporations tho Workmen's Compensation law as it had been amend ed in a few minor particulars by the administration. Before reporting tlie bill Senator Crow called a meeting of the comqiittee to learn whether there were any other amendments proposed, 'but there was none, and it seemed to be the idea to offer any amendments to the bill when it is under discussion in the Senate on third rending, as was attempted with the child labor bill. COLD STORAGE BILL IS REVIVED IN THE HOUSE The «•( Id storage bill one of the so ' ries drafod by he Commission on Uni | form Legislation ivas taken fro u the I Judiciary General Committee if the j House last nigut and p;>»st-d ior i!n first time after a lively debate. ' A motion to discharge the committee from consideration of the bill was made i by Mr Baldwin, of Delaware, who ecu tended that it would correct defeats in the present law since the Governor had vetoed the repealer of the law of 1913. W. ill. Wilson, chairman of the commit tee, sai<l that in his opinion the bill had been so changed in the Senate that it uas unfair. The committee was discharged by a | vtite of 93 to 86 and objections were j made when first reading was asked on j the bill and the rule governing that or der of business was suspended. The bill was put on the second reading cal endar of the House for to-day. Efforts to send the Senate bill to j peimit women watchers at the polls I this November failed after a roll call j was forced. Mr. Stern, of Philadelphia, | who made the motion, said that, it had j been considered in the Judiciary Gen eral Committee and should have gone ta the Elections Committee. Advocates of suffrage who were in the hall ap plfl'ded when the vote was taken show ing the motion to recommit defeated by a vote of 97 noes and 77 ayes. Election Bills P.eported Three of the series of election law | amendments were reported out in the House last night by the Elections Committee. One of the bills prevents ! i independent nominations by papers; an- j i other prohibits withdrawals of candi- j j dates after nominations are made, and i a third prohibits the pre-emption of' | party names after primaries. Two other election bills reported out J 1 in the House provide that when a can ; : didate for Judge receives 51 per cent. : of the vote he shall be considered elect i ed, and the other amends the second i class city election law. The Beidleman bill providing for a J bureau of elevator inspection in the j i Department of Labor and Industry is I dead. An effort was made to reeon ' sider the vote by which it was dropped j j from the calendar, but the motion fell | jby a vote of 68 for and 90 against. i The iHouse passed the Republican or- j ganization bill which takes first place j lon the ballot away from the Democrats I by amending the election law so that thi' result of the previous general elec- j ton and not the Presidential election! ! shall be used in establishing the places , lon the ballot. The vote was 128 ayes! [ and 51 noes. The House Democrats op- j I posed the bill. Stock Transfer Bill Passes The administration stock transfer j bill was passed by the House by a vote | of 159 to 25, after the members had j sustained Speaker Ambler in his ruling I j that the bill was not similar to one' defeated several days ago.

They run the gamut all the way from swear words to pet phrases—mostly swear words or other language that might as well be, since their meaning is clear. "Factory running to capacity and beyond, for we have had an extra night shift 011 for several weeks. So each dealer is getting his full quota accord ing to his original allotment. But. the cry is tor more—just a few extra car loads. And they never are satisfied—■ why, Minneapolis got a trainload only last week. "It is most gratifying and at the same time most trying to the poor sales manager. It taxes his ingenuity ami his integrity to the limit to keep all dealers satisfied and to keep them feel ing that each is getting just the same treatment as all others. Some of them won't believe that and so quite a per centage of the telegrams are accusa tions of partiality, while others are in the nature of bribes to sentiment. "We are going like a house aflre, though, and we hope to catch up soon. Material is piled up so high 011 the fac tory floors that it broke through in two places last week That material is go ing through the machines just as fast, as possible, considering always quality. More machinery has been installed, more men put to work and we are do ing our level best to make enough Reos to go round. "Nice telegram that from Fawkes— believe T will try to squeeze out three extra carloads for him. That will case Minneapolis up a bit, even if it doesn't wholly satisfy its hunger for Reos."
