Said Washington, January 27 The first of the Democratic tariff revision measures at this session, the metal tariff bill, was pushed through the House today by a practically united Democratic majority, without amendment.

At a late hour tonight the House was still working on the bill, Democratic Leader Underwood having announced his determination to pass the measure before adjournment. Charges of "caucus domination" and "gag' rule" were made repeatedly by Republicans, insurgents and regular, as Mr. Underwood applied the House rules to shut off debate and the amendments offered. Insurgent- Leaders Norrls of Nebraska and Lenroot of Wisconsin charged the Democrats with denying to the Houso a fair chance to consider the bill. Republican Leader Mann declared the presiding chairman, Representative Floyd of Arkansas, and Mr.

Underwood had "usurped the powers of the House more autocratically than ever was done before in the history of the Republic." The attempts to amend the bill began as soon as Mr. Underwood shut off debate at the opening of the day's session. The Republicans fought this application of the cloture rule, but lost. No Insurgent Support for Bill. The Insurgents made a determined attack upon the bill at various points and showed no disposition to support the Democratic measure.

Amendments for free steel rails and free pig iron were offered by Representative Warburton of Washington, Republican Insurgent, and voted down. Representative Murdock of Kansas attempted to put In a free steel rail amendment that would apply only In case the United States Steel Corporation was held by the New Jersey District Court to be an unlawful combination. He declared all Democrats ought to be willing to support this proposal, but Chairman Underwood exhorted the Democrats to vote it down, saying if the United States Steel Corporation were dissolved there would be real competition among steel rail mills. The debate was marked by vigorous denial from Representative Palmer, Democrat, that the duty had been removed from Iron ore with the Idea of benefiting certain steel Interests In Pennsylvania. Representative Austin, Republican, of Tennessee, made a fight for the restoration of duty on Iron ore, declaring that free ore would be a particular benefit to the Bethlehem Steel Company, of which Charles M.

In tho poignancy of our sorrow over the going of Mr. Shepard, we may seem to forget for the moment those who endured before him or who fought und suffered for him; but it Is only that our gratitude finds Its culmination In this gentle, chivalric, brilliant personality to whom this college was the dearest interest outside his home.

It is one of my happiest memories that' he said of his last days at the college, that it was to him, saving one or possibly two, the best day in the history of the college. In him, it may truthfully be said, education by the people and of the people In this city finally became firmly established, a permanent and a prophetic fact." Other speakers of the evening were: V.

D.

Armory last evening to witness Major General Charles F. Roe's last official review of the Thirteenth District Coast Artillery Corps while In the active service of the National Guard of New York. General Roe and his staff occupied Colonel Charles 0. Davis' private box in the first balcony during the formation of the regiment and purade. At the conclusion of the parade the commanding officer of the National Guard and his staff descended the stairs, Joined Colonel Davis and his staff and proceeded with the reivew.

The spectators displayed great enthusiasm when the entire regiment moved In column of battalion across the armory floor. The men displayed exceptional steadiness at all times during the paradi and drill, and were many times applauded by the visiting officers and guests. During the early part of the evening the Thirteenth Regiment Band, under the direction of E. B. Baldwin, bandmaster, rendered a concert In the drill doom, the programme of which contained a number of classic selections and popular marches.

One ot the noticeable features among the military guests was the appearance of about twenty members of the Seventy-first Infantry In uniform. It ban been many years, It was said, since any military deputation from that regiment visited the Thirteenth Armory in uniform, and the militiamen from the SeT-enty-flrst wero royally entertained by members of the Thirteenth at the conclusion of the review. The accuracy with which the targetsy were punctured by the large guns dur-- ing the artillery practice brought an ovation from the guests. During Brigadier General David E. Austen's last review twenty minutes' artillery practice was ordered at his request, but on that occasion the air pressure, which hurla the missiles across the armory, was very unreliable and, as a result, a poor showing was made.

The four-inch rifle la3t night especially made an accurate record while firing with great rapidity. At tho conclusion of the artilley prao-tlce the military guests and officers of tho regiment were entertained In the colonel's headquarters, while the guests participated in dancing. Special receptions were held in the various company rooms. The officers In charge of tho regiment during the review were: Col-inel Charles O. Davis, commanding; First Battalion, Major George W.

Rogers; First Company, Captain Frank Dean; Twelfth Company. Captain Robert P. Orr; Fourth Company, Captain W. A. ''atterson; Sixth Company, Captain A.

WU-letts Herbert Sawyer, and "Looking Backward," Mrs. F. W. Haynes. This last was a history of the Downing Vacation House, which was recently destroyed by fire.

Mrs. Haynes was one of the founders of the house when It was a summer home for the working girls clubs of the city. She was connected with It through its history during that time and since It has been the property of the Y. W. C.

A. The last talk of the evening proved the most Interesting. This was by Miss Ernestine Frledmann, who Is connected In a official capacity with the national board of the Y. C. A.

She talked principally of the camp for girls at Altamont, N. and urged the girls who were now deprived of their vacation at Downing House to take advantage of the fine outdoor life offered at the camp. She told of the experiment at the camp last summer of having the system used by the Camp Fire Girls of America In vogue. This organization corresponds to the Boy Scouts of America. There was a musical programme given by the members of the Choral Club and Miss Jeanne Little, who rendered several violin selections.

Palmer Says He Is Marked for cise our rights. Mr. Wlnthrop did not wish to run again, but he was persuaded to do so at the present Juncture. The majority of The Associated Physicians of Long Island held their annual dinner at the Hamilton Club last evening. Dr.

Frank Overton of Patchogue, the retiring president, was the toastmaster, and speeches were made by Justice Frederick E. Crane of the Supreme Court, the Rev. L. H. Johnston of Patchogue, L.

and Dr. William B. Brinsmade ot Brooklyn, the president-elect. The election of officers took place-at the annual business meeting In the afternoon, held at the Kings County Medical Society rooms. In addition to Dr.

Brinsmade, the following officers were elected: First vice -president, Dr. Hundrk-ks ot Jamaica, L. second vice president, Dr. James P. Warbasse ot Brooklyn, third vko president, Dr.

D. 1). Roberts of Brooklyn; secretary. Dr. James Cole Hancock of Brooklyn, and treasurer.

Dr. Charles B. Buer, superintendent of the City Hospital on Blackwells Island. The association holds three meetings every year, one in June on the South Side of Long Island, a second in October, on the North Shore, and tho third in January, usually In Brooklyn, preceded by the annual business meeting. Tho association nas about 800 members, of which r.lnty-seven attended the dinner.

In his address President-elect Brinsmado said that one of his aims would be to get a membership of 1,000, and another to Btart the publication of a Journal of the association. Judge Crane discussed the testimony o. medical experts In courts. Ho said he did not agree with the common ridicule of such testimony as readily purchase-able for either side, and practically worthless. He said that in law there were many questions as to which honest men differ.

Facts in each Individual case cannot be determined scientifically aa in medicine, but a rough and ready rule that works in the majority of cases must be applied to the individual case. Justice, iu the moral sense, may not be obtained, but the administration of law Is a practical problem, and the rule that works must be evoked for the sake of getting practical results. To his mind, the administration of law In the courts Is a speedy affair, and there is no time to analyze carefully the individual case. Dr. Anderson.

If The rule that boxers shall weigh In at the ringside on tho evening of an entertainment will show little to the public that It lias not known before, when Young Solsberg, tho local aspirant for championship honors, meets Kid Will-lams of Baltimore at the Royalo Athletic Club next Tuesday night. Both of these lads are well within the class limit and it haB been a long time since two so evenly matched lads in their division have met In the squardd circle. Williams is, without doubt, the best boxer that has come to the metropolis in a long time.

He has all the earmarks of a fighter, and In every Instance that he has boxed about these parts he has he hadn't been a candidate, we would have nominated Mr. Greene, the vice-president, and might have elected him. But preferred to vote for Mr. Wln throp, who has attended to his duties faithfully. which has been holding hearings on the Money Trust question to the effect that such an investigation was highly necessary, Ileprescntatlve Martin W.

Littleton, the lang Island member, tonlgnt gave out a statement which Is regarded as representing the views of the House leaders. It came following a conrerence with several of the conservative Democrats, Who fear that the House may run amuck with Investigations. "I am opposed to such an investigation at Is proposed by Mr. said Mr. Littleton.

"That is not the way to meet the situation. A panic might ensue If the plan were followed. Why not admit there is a money trust, if such a thing exists, and then set about to frame legislation to meet the evil? What Is the jrood of investigating on the mere claim that such a trust exists? When you begin to investigate a concern In this manner you create distrust In It, pernaps do-inn general harm. Investigate a bank and you encourage people to draw their money out of It. Suppose the House determined to probe this bank and that the attitude of the people would be expressed by the remark, 'Why, that bank is under Are; I'd better get my money out of It." If a money trust exists, the way to meet the situation is to legislate promptly and without going into a long investigation that will create unrest Loader Underwood, Representative Fitzgerald of Brooklyn and other conservative Democrats are alarmed at the tendency of the Democratic majority In the House to investigate anything and everything.

Already a number of the investigations started during the extra session have proved fruitless and have even produced boomerang effects. Now, on top of the desire of a lot of Democrats to cut loose with pork barrel appropriation bills, comes the proposal for another investigation which the conservatives declare, is calculated to upset confidence in the ability of the party to run things on a safe and sane basis. The Money Trust Investigation ha3 been Indorsed by William J. Bryan In the Commoner and Mr. Underwood has on his hands another battle with the Nebraska man.

When the Lindbergh resolution first came before the House It did not get sofrtous consideration, because it was not thought likely that even the most radical Democrats would adopt the Ideas of a Republican insurgent. Now it Is apparent that a large number of Democrats are ready to jump at the chance. Chairman Henry's statement is Interpreted as the beginning of a revolt against the leadership of Underwood that may entail serious consequences. A good many Democrats in the House are of the opinion that the tariff is by no means the only Issue of the party In the campaign this fall, and they are ready to go the limit on a variety of radical propositions, LABOR MEN AT DINNER.

The Insurgent forces were In frequent clash with Democratic leaders. Mr.

Underwood charged Representative Norrls of Nebraska with attempting to delay the bill, a charge that was Indignantly denied. Republican Leader Mann declared the Republicans did not want to filibuster, but wanted their full rights In considering the bill. "If we are going to be run over we certainly will kick while it Is going on," said Mr. Mann. Amendments by Representative Martin, Democrat, of Colorado, and Representative Moore, Republican, of Pennsylvania, to put an eight-hour day clause Into the bill, were ruled out of order.

An amendment by Representative Hill of Connecticut, Republican, prohibiting the free Importation of typewriters, linotypes and other articles which are In tho Democratic free list, In case those articles are controlled by patents in this country, was voted down. Representative Bradley, Republican, of New York, offered an amendment to Increase the proposed duty on pocketknives and similar cutlery from 35 to SO per cent.
