HOUSE DEMOCRATS REJECT IM-
MEDIATE FREE SUGAR AND
STAND BY PRESIDENT.
Are Interesting the Entire Country
Real Fight in Caucus Precipitated by
Representative Hardwjek—Chair-
man Underwood Defends the
Measure Vigorously and
Dnpree Opposes It.
WASHINGTON, D. C., April 12.-
Inimcdiatc free sugar was rejected to
day by the House Democratic caucus
by nn overwhelming vote, after an ap-
peal of Democratic leaders to stand
by the President and the Ways and
Means Committee.
This leaves the sugar schedule un-
changed from the compromise form
in which it was presented to the cau-
cus by Cluirman Underwood and his
colleagues of the committee, after
conferences between the White House
and leaders of both houses of Con-
gress.
The Democratic members of the
committee, including such free traders
as Keprescntatives Harrison of New
York and Rainey of Illinois, stood as
a unit for the three-year gradual re-
duction to a free sugar basis.
DATE OF FREE SUGAR OPEN.
Besides this action, the caucus left
open the exact date when sugar would
go 011 the free list in 1916. An amend-
ment proposed by Representative
Hardwick of Georgia proposed that
the time it should take effect should
be May 1, 1916 so as to be effective
before the beginning of the canning
reason. The caucus agreed to leave
the matter to be brought up by the
ways and Means Committee after all
the rest of the tariff bill had been
disposed of in caucus.
'l'lif otertSrow <rf tlie Immediate free
hiiimv movement came at the closo of a
ilny u( iirKUuii-nts ami the amendment pro-
posing that augur should become free with
the operation of the new tariff law was
mane by Kepreseutatlve Hardwick. It pro-
eipltated the real fight of the day and
was lost by a vote ot 156 to lilt, after the
Ki'hedule had been assailed for Uoura by
the proponents of the sugar planters lu
Louisiana and the beet sugar growers.
Chairman linderwood vigorously defended
the proposed rates. In his speech to the
eaucuB, lie pleaded strongly for the unit-
ed party In support of the bill as present-
ed and he emphatically asserted that the
sugar adjustment suggested by President
Wilson was a most equitable one.
"We will concede," said Mr. Underwood,
agreeing with some of the opponents of
the bill, "that Immediate free sugar wonld
ut the domestic planter out of business.
lit we assert also that free sugar la three
years will destroy no legitimate Industry.
"Those who have invested their money
in sugar lands and have planted crops
will have a chance under the plan of re-
vision in this bill to pny their bills and
lo adjust themselves to the new condt
Uons.
basis is Kgrn'ABLb;.
".Mr. Broussard complains that President
Wilson s request, for free siignr hi three
years is not equitable. We say that the
President's course in this schedule is
founded on a most equitable basis.
"This is a party measure and 1 believe
ttial. most of my Democratic colleagues
*ani to see this schedule pass the House
at It .nine from the committee. Let us
keep I his party milted.
Mr. t mlerwood argued against the
Hardwick Immediate free sugar amend-
ment as well as the amendment to extend
Ihe free sugar time from three lo four
years. His speech was received with loud
applause and cries of "vote, vote."
Representative Haiuey of Illinois ap-
pealed lo the caucus to stand by the IX>ino-
ere tie Administration.
"We have been fighUng Republican
Presidents," he warned the Democrat*
"and we ought not to strike a blow at a
Kensocratlr president. President Wllilon
has announced the provision In tills bill
ai a policy of ills Administration, lie has
broken the ley barrier between the White
House Slid the House of Hepreaentatlvea
that baa existed for more than a hundred
years by his speech from t he clerk's desk
of this House, ran we afford as Demo-
crats to defeat the first policy he has an-
nounced. the policy of a three years' grad-
ual reduction of the tariff on sugar?
' There la no Issue of free sugaF. On
this the President of the lulled Stutes and
the majority of the Democratic side of
this House are agreed. The Ways and
Means Committee stauiis absolute!v with
the President. We ate for the hill as It
ttauds, without dissension, without di-
vision Sugar will be free The only
question la when It shall be free, now or
to be reduced this year and next year snd
I lie neTt year and then free. We ask you.
by your votes, not to defeat the Admlnla-
vrat.lon."
QUESTIONS SAVING TO CONSUMERS.
Representative llupree of Louisiana, r<y
plying to Mr. Underwood, challenged t
Itatement, made by the majority leader
that free sugar ultimately would save the
ronsutner $115,000,000 annually.
Mr. Dupre declared thai If the entire
laving that would follow free sugar fell
upon the consumer, :he per capita *iMur
per day would be only one-third of a
fent. »
If there had been any doubt about the
remit of Ihe fight during the day. It had
disappeared after Mr. Underwood had con-
eluded his presentation of the situation
snd the members were getting anxious to
vote before Mr. IMipre concluded. When
the Hardwick amendment was finally
brought up the result was overwhelming.
The caucus quickly disposed of the tn-
haico schedule without any change and

FB1HRKE Sun Autouio girls will pluy a
* leading part In an upproachiug wedding
and its antenuptial gayeties in New
York City, which will engage the atten-
tion of all Texas, us well as the upper
tendom in Gotham. New Orleans, Palm
Beach and the many places where Miss
Bessie1 Yoakum bus been a leading figure
In society, and In the big financial world,
where her father, B. K. Yoakum, is a
prominent figure. Already these young
girls have been the chief figures in the
ante-nuptial events with which Sau An-
tonio has beeu glad to do honor to Miss
Yoakum, and the storv of their friend-
ships is an interesting bit of girl life.
They have been childhood friends of the
bride-elect since they were little children
together, and her contluued residence in
.New York has not. weakened the strong
friendship that exists between them, for
absence could not make faiuter the im-
&resslous of those childish days, and, too,
Llss Voakum has been such a frequent
visitor In her old home here that she
has alwuys been considered as part and
parcel of San Antonio's social life. The
fciris regret the approaching marriago
solely because they fear that it . may
perhaps cause some separation which
neither absence nor years could affect, for
It may prevent these same long and care-
free visits.
Miss Mat tie Terry, Miss Louise Bur-
clay and Mies Henrietta Kleberg will
leave San Antonio May l.r» for New York,
where they will be guests of Miss Yoa-
kum and participate iti all the many
bridal festivities which are being planned
for her there. Later they will go to
Princeton, where they will be the guests
of Mrs. .lohu Larkln, the mother of the
groom, who lias taken a cottage iu
Princeton for the commencement seusou,
and they will be there for the commence-
ment gayetles aud the ball games. These
young girls will uot only be wedding
guests, but they will be among the chief
actors, as all will be bridesmaids and one
of them will be maid of honor. .lust
which one. however, has not as yet been
determined, for Miss Yoakum could not
make up her mind upon which of Iter
nearest friends this honor should devolve.
She loves them all too much to choose
between theui, though she was certaiuly
going to have her maid of honor from
Han Antonio. So she left it to chance,
and the girls were instructed to "draw
straws" for the place of honor. They,
too, werb fain to put it off, for. while
each coveted the place, each hated to
take it ai the cxpecse of Iter friend, so
that it has been put off from day l<« «liiy.
discussed and laughed over nt soine func-
tion each day. but always put off "till
tomorrow," as .is the custom in .Mamma
Land. It has been decided that the lots
shall be drawn on the day tlint Miss
Yoskum leaves for New York, which will
be next Thursday, and until that day not
even the bride herself will know who Is
to be her maid of honor. Will It be
Louise er Mattfe? Neither knows, but
each is thrilllug with delicious exnei
fancy, though each Is generously willing
to bow to the fates' decree. Between
such friends as these there can he no
petty .lealotislos ami whichever way the
straws go, there wilt be nothing but Joy
und good,wjshes to go with the bridal
party fri^n San Antonio. The wedding
dnv has not been fully decided upon
either, as U will reasla undecided until
Miss Yoakum's return to New York, but it
will be the first week in June, prior to
the 7th. which is the date set for the
party to go to Princeton for Ihe com-
mencement exercises, at which time tho
newly-made bride will have her first ex-
perience as a chaperon.
The wedding will be preceded by
many fashionable functions for the bridal
pavty, and will itself he one of the most
brilliant affairs of the spring season in
New York. The bride, in addition to be-
ing the daughter of a railroad magnate,
is also verj popular, and deservedly so.
for she is the possessor of an unusual'/
sweet and attractive nature and has all
the gifts that tlw gods can bostoV,
youth, beauty and grace. The groom Is
a prominent lawyer in New York City
and also a member of a distinguished aud
promiuent family.
He graduated from Princeton in 1011,
being an honor man In that class. The
wedding will take place in the Fifth
Avenue Presbyterian Church, which Is
the place where the Yoakum family wor-
ships.
Miss Yoakum's trousseau will, of
course, be exquisite ami elaborate. Her
lingerie has all been made abroad and
Is of the finest haud-embroidered kind.
Her many gowns for all sorts of differ-
ent occasions, have some been made at
home in New York, others abroad. Her
wedding gown will be of exquisite hand-
made lace, which will also be the mate-
rial of her veil. This was made abroad,
but the fashioning of it into a dress over
white satin of the heaviest and loveliest
weave was done iu New York, another in-
stance of her loyalty to home and home
ludustrles. She Is known among her
friends us a patrouess of everything that
speaks of home and friends, aud all who
know her think that Mr. Larkln is a
lucky and a wise man to have won a
bride from "down iu Texas."
Miss Mat tie Terry is the daughter of
Mr. and Mrs. J. W. Terry and has been
Identified with San Antonio society siuce
her earliest girlhood.
Miss Louise Barclay is the daughter
of Mrs. J. P. Barclay, and her late fa-
ther was one of the leading hankers of
the cltv and she herself has been one of
the popular girls in the smart set here.
Miss Henrietta Kleberg is the daughter
of Mr. and Mrs. K. J. Kleberg of "Kings
ville and the proprietors of the King
ranch. Miss Klol>erg has always been
Identified with San Antonio society and
she has often entertained Miss Yoakum
and the rest of the girls at her delight-
ful ranch home.

Revolution against the nomination
of Clinton G. Brown for Mayor by
the Citizens' League convention Fri-
day night has started and, in the
judgment of many, it will spread
throughout the city before the close
of the coming week. While dozens
of men who participated in the pri-
mary conventions and in the Beetho-
ven Hall meeting expressed marked
dissatisfaction over the manner of the
vnmg down of Paul Meerscheidt,
there were few who cared to be pub
licly quoted at this time.
But Frank C. Davis, who seconded
the nomination of Mr. Meerscheidt,
who has borne the brunt of many of
the political battles of the Citizens'
League and who had been chosen to
raise the campaign fund this time, is
in open rebellion—the Carranzas of
the insurrection. Mr. Davis proposes
the (tending of envoys to City Attor-
ney Joseph Ryan, to be named as the
mayoralty candidate of the People's
party and the forming of an alliance
with that organization by all Citizens'
Leaguers who are opposed to Mr.
Brown.
Mr. Davis, talking to a representa-
tive of The Express, suggests the
nomination of "a man whose influ
ence and personality will carry a bone
issue for the improvement of the
city." He declares it would be splen
did politics at this juncture for Mr.
Ry«n te become the candidate of the
fusion forces for City Attorney, giv-
ing the nomination for Mayor to an-
other who shall be agreed upon by
all the elements of the proposed amal-
gamation.
Mr. Ryan, when Informed nf the in-
tentions of some of the late leaders of
the Cltlsens' League last night, said:
"At our convention at Beethoven Hall
Monday night we shall be glad to re-
ceive proposals from any good chU -is
who desire to see San Antonio progross
as she deserves. But I am not a candi-
date for Cltv Attorney and expect to oe
elected Mayor of San Antonio at the May
election."
Mr. Davis said: "I can not support
Mr. Brown for Mayor and have told him
so. T never ltnew before there could lie
anything so cruel lu politics as thu
method adopted in the turning down of
Faul Meerscheidt by friends of Mr.
Brown, after Mr. Brown had pledged
his support to Mr. Meerscheidt. The tac-
llcs pursued by certain men in connec-
tion with the rejection of Mr. Meer-
scheidt, after he had been led to believe
as late as J o'clock Friday nfternoon that
Mr. Brown would not be a candidate,
are things that I can neither forgive nor
f',rc"t.
"There Is more In this cause to which
I have given time and labor and money
unstintedly than the holding of office.
The greatest issue before us is the voting
of a bond Issue lu sufficient volume lo
insure the 'naklng of municipal improve-
ments without which the city can not
go forwar.i as she should. I do not be-
lieve tlie taxpayers of San Antonio will
vote for a bond Issue if Mr. Brown is to
be the Mayor. Mr Brown ts a nice voung
man But there Is no resident of this
city interested In Its progress who must
not know what will happen if Mr.
Brown should be elected. He would hol-J
the office through his term all right but
ho would bo absplutely helpless, thro')„m
the refusal of the taxpayers to como to
the aid of a bond issue, to do more 'han
lielil the office. I submit that this con-
dition Is pot desired In San Antonio. It
Is not what we charter members of the
I'itisans' T/eigue have fought for. It is
not what we want and, speaking for mv-
self. It Is not what we are going to get.
"This Is no place or time for recrimi-
nations. I have frankly told Mr. Brown
1 shall not support htm. 1 told so inn
nf the reasons In my speech seconding
the nomination of Mr. Mcerschcidt. I did
not tell all of them.
"I have been around town todav and
I know what is breeding In the way of
revolution against the program that cul-
minated In Mr. Brown's nomination.
1 never saw a great, militant organiza-
tion go to pieces under the shock that
Is borne of wrong-doing like the ritlsens'
league Is crumbling under the effects of
the nomination of Mr. Brown.
"For my part, I favor Joining forces
with the friends of City Attorney Rynn.
I should like to see Mr. Ryan succeed
himself as City Attorney and persuade
his friends to support a man whose name
would be a guarantee of success at tho
polls, as well as a guarantee of the car-
rying of a bond issue, l have no par-
ticular candidate in view. I am looking
for Ihe good of San Antonio. | ha"e
no sort of doubt we can find such a
man. 1 have no sort of doubt we can
win with him.
"Mr Meerscheldt's German-American
friends are not unmindful of but fullv
appreciate the tender to blm hv the poli-
ticians of the Job of Fourth Ward Alder-
man.
OTHER CANDIDATES BUOGKSTED.
"Already we are looking Into available
candidates an1 several names have hcan
suggested." continued Mr. Davis, when
informed Mr. Ryan had said he was not
playing second fiddle In the present
chorus. "The movement may result in
the plaelng ot a third ticket In the
field We arc going to achieve decisive
results in this matter and I am going
to eat Ifttle and sleep less until It la
done.
"Not lees than on« hundred prominent
and Influential residents of San Antonio,

sens' League, have talked with me today
and every one of them feels as I <lo.
They are not talking— they left It to me
to do that—but they are rend; to work

COUGH GIVES MUCH Pi
Extreme Weakness Follows and Feve»
Rises to 103 Degrees—News of
Sudden Change Breaks L'pon
Celebration By the
Pope's Sisters.
ROME, April 12.—Pope Pius X has
suffered a serious relapse. His con-t
dition tonight was such as to arouse
the gravest fear. He showed great
weakness and his fever rose to 103
degrees. The second relapse followed
a disregard for the physicians' in-
structions. It was due to overexertion
from several audiences the Pope gave
today and to exposure to a change
of atmospheric temperature. The
gravity of the Pope's condition makes
prevalent the fear that the end of his
pontificate is approaching. Accord-
ing to the latest reports from the sick
room, although the temperature had
diminished slightly, the Pope wj(f
much exhausted on account of a per-
sistent cough, which caused consider-
able pain in his chest.
The bedroom is kept in scmidark-
ness and absolute silence, Prof. Mar-
chiafava having again insisted on a
visit late tonight, that everything b#
done to prevent the patient from even
making ail effort to exercise his mind.
This time Cardinal Merry del V«1
added his authority in support of tha
physicians' orders.
PHYSICIANS 188VB BULLETIN.
Doctors Maivhiafava and Amid f.v<utC
their first bnlletin thi* evening regarding
the Pope's condition, which indicates th§
gravity of the case, in view of the fftct
that recently Prof. Marchlafava, in ex-
plaining why bulletins had not been it-
sued, xaid they were published only in
eases of great gravity. The bulletin was
as follows:
"Ou April 7. the Pope fell ill with a re-
lapse of influenza, with symptoms of tra-
cheal bronchitis. This fever subsided thre#
days ago, but returned today with an ag-
gravation of the catarrhal symptom*.
There are no symptoms to warrant alarm."
The suddeunens of the relapse haa
caused the deepest apprehension. The
Pope this morning received Bishop Long-
hia. say log that he could not allow "the
bishop ot my diocese" to leave Home with-
out seeing him. The I'ope was most af-
fable ami gave to the bishop a pictorial
cross, with white instooes set in gold.
Bishop Longhln left the room radiant*
He thought the I'ope appeared emaciated
and prostrated, but that he was cheerful
inu hopeful. He gathered the impression
that a man with such mental vitality
would live long ills delight was so great
that he and the sisters of the Popf
lunched together iu high good humor,
wishing to celebrate the recovery of the
pontiff. They spent the greater part, of
the afternoon together, but were awakened
from their dream by the sad news of the
Pope's rolnpse.
PONTIFF'S FBVKR IS HIGH.
The pontiff suffered from a high f^ver,
whbh registered 108 degrees. It gradual'
ly decreased to 90, but roue agaiu and 4lt
midnight was reported to bo 108. The
Pope insisted that bis sisters aud secre-
taries and even his staff withdraw, aay-
in« that, he did not, need assistance and
would call. If necessary. They were
obliged to obey and retired to an adjoin-
Yes, Write Name and Address
But ONCE in the Answer Book
No Need to Sign More Than That, for Book
.. Ik Well Bound.
Several contestant* have inquired whether or not they should Mgn
name* and addrewte* only once in the Answer Book, or on each pace.
Sign only once, on the Rpecial page in the hack of the book reserved for
that purpose. Do not sign the paces on which you paste the pictures. It to
not necessary at all to do so.
Probably these contestants are confused by the fact that you muat sign
your name and address on EACH PICTURE AND COUPON, if you do Mt
use an Answer Rook. This must be done, so that the pictures and coupons
may he assembled again if they fall apart during the process of checking.
Think what a mess there would be if a Mt of single pictures and coupons be-
came scattered in the checking room, possibly falling on the floor sad becom-
ing mixed up with some other set. If each picture and coupon were signed, of
course, the sets could easily be assembled again. Rut if each one were Mt
signed it would take « handwriting expert to get the sets together properly.
So, if you do not submit your set in an Answer Rook, sign each coupon.
