Tioops armed w;th picks and shovels were, sent forward at night and a new line of works were begun a little in advance of the former trenclus.

RECORD. SESSION LISTS 46 HOUR Talking Marathon on Ship Purchase Bill Still Goes Forward with No Prediction as to Probable Outcome. i FILIBUSTER OF 1893 ONLY LASTED 39 HOURS Former Record for Long Session Made During Battle Against Repeal of Clause in Sherman Silver Act. r.r LLT7TIN. WASHINGTON, V(h. 10. Although wearied by the long fight over the administration's ship purchase bill, which has culminated in the session of the senate that breaks all records for length, the supporters of the measure stuck to then- guns today and defeated an attempt to shelve the bill. Standing lirmlv by l'res't. Wilson, the administration senators voted down 4 9 to a motion of Sen. Gallinger to ta!-:o up the water power bill in place of the ship purchase measure. In the ballot that resulted in the tabling of the Jallinger motion, the administration men secured the support of three insurgent senators. r.ankhead, Tlardwiek. and Vardaman hut lost that of Sen. Norris who had been working with them in the early stages of the iilibustcr. WASHINGTON, Feb. 10. The United States senate today established a record for long distance sessions and the talking Marathon on the ship purchase bill still went on. At 10 o'clock the upper house had been in session without a break for 4 6 hours. The longest previous session, according to the oldest members of the serial o who searched their memories and records was .19 hours. When the end would come to the present session no one would predict. Administration leaders declared it mUht last for a week without interruption. When the sun sent his rays down through the senate sky-lights today Sen. Sherman of Illinois was hcddiir-r the iloor. He started to speak at 10:25 o'clock and resorted to every device to pass the -lime, reading from newspapers and as one of his eolleagues put it, "everything that he could find." The 39-hour record for long sessions was made by the senate in during the filibuster against the repeal of the purchasing clause of the Sherman silver act. The senator had only a small audience throughout his long speech. The extreme of the one attempt to roll call during the niuht have exhausted the interest of republicans and democrats alike. From the beginning" of his speech the members who had gathered first to vote on adjeurnment, then to meet the threatened democratic attempt to rush through a vote on the lirst of the instructions to send the bill back to committee, dwindled steadily. Only Four on (Juard. Al one time Sen. Lor, of Tennessee, who presided, and Sen. Lee of Maryland, dozing at a desk, represented the entire visible strength of the democrats. Sens. Smoot of Ft ah and Smith of Michigan, constituted the republican guard. The domoerats changed their watcher.'-, from time to time, giving those wb had served several hours a chance to retire to the committee rooms in which cots have been installed. Senators were sleeping on these cots in half a dozen ol" the committee rooms. At S o'clock the democratic guard consisted of Sen. Shafroth Colorado, who appeared more interested in his morning newspaper. Sen. Mar- j tino of New Jersey strolled in and, out. rages were nispatcneo to oruer bre:ij;fast for various senators waiting in the cloak room. Trays of dishes from the restaurant were strewn about th? cloak rooms and pillows and window hangings which had heen usd to ease the slumbers of statesman displayed without reserve on the big red sofas in the corners of the senate chamber. These were cleared away as the hour approached for the arrival of after-breakast reinforcements. Sen. Warren of Wyoming was the last to occupy the sleeping couch in the senate chamber, but lv was- awakened and sent homo before daylight. I)tiMnt Aids llepulilicaiK. Sen. Dupont of Delaware, civil war veteran, and millionaire, arrived soon after dawn to support the republican forces. At :-0 S-ui. M Lean of Coimoet?cit appeared accompanied by Mrs. McLean who took a seat in the front row of the gallery. At that hour the only persons in the galleries w hi -h were crowded no to midnight, were two men and a boy, al' half asleep. Members of the cabinet including Sec'vs Fryan, Tme, Dr-nb ls and ;.irr sop. Uurleson and Secy Tumulty. ! were among the interested spectators j tinting the night. Sen. Sherman surrendered the rbtor at o'clock after speaking seven hours and 4.". minutes.

Sims of the high school, against whom complaint was lodged by the parents of Clonn Stouffer for alleged violence in administering a reproof to the boy, made a public explanation of the affair in a talk before the high school students in assemblv W'ednesday. Sims said he was now convinced that young Stouffer did not know that it was the principal who approached him from the rear as he was scufding with a companion and that his resistance was not directed at ""authority." The principal pointed out that it was necessary to maintain strict discipline and that ceunplains from parents were as likely to conie because of laxitv

as they were for stringency. Simsl(, r ' . . , ,,. v1

said that insubordination was the main "sin" which could not lie tolerated if discipline were to be maintained. Inasmuch as he was convinced that Stouffer did not intend resistance to the principal, Sims said his act might be excused. He admitted "roughing" Stouffer to a certain extent but denied charges of undue violence. "I am thoroughly eonvineod that Stoufl'ei s act was unintentional." said Prin. Sims," and I asked him for some proof that would make me believe that fact. He replied that he was an earnest advocate of 'safety first' n.nd that in view of that fact he would not think of attacking me. "If we had no discipline in the school and occurences like this came up continually a cry would be raised against the school. When we do ussomewhat strict measures we are also complained against."
