Beginning at 11:45 o'clock today the Senate's session continued until 4:50 P. M. Almost immediately after ii began the first vote was taken on the Cummins' amendment to the -SmooL provision. The Smoot amendment looked to the authorization of. the withdrawal from the local banks of the postal funds in case of war or other exigency, and Mr. Cummins, sought to modify It by making it apply to war as the only exigency Justifying withdrawals. Thrj Cummins provision went down under a vote of : 40 nays and against 18 ayes. Amendment to the -Bill.' ; Later in the day the Smoot amend inent was adopted after it had been modified by the Insertion of an amend inent introduced by Senator Borah. As adopted the amendment, which is in the Bhape of a proviso, reads: "When in the Judgment of the Pres- luont,- war or any other exigency in volving the credit of the government so requires, the board of trustees may withdraw all or any part of the aid funds from the. banks and invest iho same in bonds or other securi ties of the United. States; providing, Hi at no part of said funds shall in any event be ; invested in bonds or other securities bearing Interest at less than 2 1-4 per centum per an num." .. - Two other important amendmets were agreed to today. One of these was suggested by 9enator Bailey and would permit the withdrawal of pos tal funds deposits by the original de positor "upon demand, and the ,otK 'r by Senator Gallinger, specifically including savings banks and .trust companies, doing a banking business, among the banking institutions per mitted to accept the deposits of postal funds. The "insurgent" Republicans were much elated over the Borah modifica tion. The provision was agreed to O to 11. . - : ' Mr. Mjcney, speaking for the 'Dem ocrats, based his opposition upon "the theory that an amendment, cons'titifr tonal in itself, could not render valid h bill which in itself was In contra vention of the constitution. A number cf Democratic senators, including Messrs. Gore, Stone and Ba con spoke in general opposition to the measure. The three mentioned "aw in the bill the forerunner of a Kreat central . bank, and regarded the legislation as unconstitutional. The Postal (Savings Bank bill had ooen before the 'Senate since the 28th of January. , . , . ' ...3 Washington, Mch. 5. Gilford Pin chot concluded his part of the BeJEii ger Plnchot inquiry today, and James R. Garfield, former Secretary of the Interior- and another, prominent : mem ber of the Roosevelt "Tennis Cabi net," took the stand. Mr. Garfield had only fairly started his testimony, however, when adjournment was" tak en until Thursday next , Mr. Pinchot's story ended with reiteration of the fact that he had little or no personal knowledge of the facts to which he had called attention during the four days , he was on the witness stand, and with a general de fense of the Forest Service. Mr. Pic- chot summed up "the various "infer ences;? be 'desired, the .comTnltted; to araw from' the documents "that pt& viously had ' been introduced in .evi dence H and from statements of wit nesses yet to come: The former For ester's final day on the stand Was tak en up almost entirely with "interfer ences and conclusions." He was ex amined and cross examined as to these until members of the committee, plainly irritated by the tactics bv the counsel In golnjf over the same ground again and again, pleaded for chance to draw their own conclusions. About the only interesting point mad by Attorney Vertrees during the day was his suggestion to the com mittee that Mr. Pinchot had charged Mr. Ballinger with "wilful deception or the President" for a possible mis statement made upod Information fur nished by others, whereas Mr. Pin chot, in defending himself for having made misstatements to the President, likewise on the Information of others had. declared he merely made "simple rt'..Vn Th ". the late Tliomai H.

Cramp's Shipyard. Brh.'s Car Works ' the Midvale Steel Works, all of which are "open shop" concerns, were In ope ration today with practically their full force. .
