Reverse Action They Took When
"Cannonism" Was Over?
thrown in House.
NULLIFY NEW CALENDAR
"Underwoodism" Will Now Be
Issue, Republicans Assert?
Insurgents Forced, to
Eat Crow.
(from The Tilburn? BONSV '?
Washington. Ken. .1.?The House 'ii
?"irgents at?* < roav to-day when the Dcm
?->. r;?ti?- majority rushed through with
forty minutes' dehnte an amendment lo
the rules which practically nullities the
calendar to discharge committees.''
This calendar was horn of insurgent and
DtMMcratlc votes in the Hist Congress,
hut the Democrats \aere then In the
minority, nnd were howling against
"<"annonism" and committee domina?
tion.
Over the protests of regular and in?
surgent iVpublicans the majority re?
versed itself to-day, restored to the
Speaker and the party ma*hine the dom?
inating InfluetK-e they formerly pos?
sessed, and reduced to a minimum the
possibility that any bill may bo brought
from committee without consent of the
Democratic organization. The method
employed under the "gag rule" of the
House committee is simple but effective,
for the new rule provides that the cal?
endar to discharge committees shall not
he in order until all motions "to suspend
the rules'' have been considered.
As was pointed out by Representative
l.enroot and other minority speakers,
the new rule means that so long as UtS
Hpeakcr careado .recognize members who,
wish to suspend the rules and pass a
bill, any member who proposes to dis?
charge a committee from consideration
of a pigeon-holed measure must await
his turn. That turn will never come if
the House machine wills otherwise.
Heretofore it has been in order every
other Monday to call the calendar in the
following order: Bills for unanimous
consent, motions to discharge commit?
tees and motions to spend the rules.
The new rule provides that the motions
to discharge committees shall go to the
foot of the list, motions to suspend the
rules taking precedence. Democratic
members defended the change on ths
ground that it would prevent minority
Mi busters on the discharge calendar.
Republican speakers pointed out that it
would have the practical effect of abol?
ishing that calendar, and that under the
new system the individual member will
bs a.s helpless as he has ever been in thu
past.
"Vr.u restore to the Speaker the power
you took away from him two years ago,"
said Representative Lenroot. "Just so
?one as he cares to recognize members
w 1111 motions to suspend the rules It will
le Impossible to call up the discharge
calendar. It is now useless. The ma
???nia- ?if the House Is going backward,
m it forward."
l?epresentatlve Dalzell declared that
' Reod'sm" and "Cannonism'' In the
? have merely given way to Under
troodlfltl. He asserte?!, without denial
t 'in lhe majority side, that Representa?
tive Underwood has become the absolute
dk '..?tor of House proceedings, and pre?
dicted that within a short time T'nder
W ?mdism would besoins as groat an issue
Si Cannonism" had ever been.
Ths amendment to the rules, proposed
by Chairman Henry of the Rules Com?
mittee, was adopted by a vote of I.V. to
100, divided practically along pany linea.
Representatives Anderson, of Ohio, and
Cray, of Indiana. Democrat* bolted and
voted with the Republicans against th?
"gag rule."

MR TIOOSKXT.I.T'S pi MBITION. - < ?n?- of
th" most sincere of President Taft's sup
portera declared to-day his ?onvictl?->n that
P'opi^ generally had failed to tak<- a suf?
ficiently lofty view of the position of BU
ex-President of the United State?, and tha'
It was due to that failure that some peopl?
were demanding thnt cx-Prrsldent Ronse
veli take himself wholly out of the Prcst
dciiti?l equation hy ?r.me form Of public
statement. This statesman, who Is prob?
ably quits as intimate with the ex-Pro-ldeiit
as hi- Is with President Taft, asserted em?
phatically mat Mr. Roeaavell wea not a
candidate for the nomination and did not
wish to he nominated. He said that no one
need fear hurting Mr. Roosevelt's feellagB
by opposing: lii?? nomination or prnmotlni*
that of President Taft, hut thai apparently
few people had stopped to reflect that it
would ho an undignified IhinK for the
former President to make n public state?
ment derlarinc that he would not accept
;i nomination which had not been offered
to him, especiallv ?s he has bsM on more
than one occasion In the past that he ?vas
not a candidate and would not accept n
nomination under any circumstances. This
same statesman further declare?! (hat no
man could absolutely ;md Anally refuse t??
accept a nomination for the Presidency if
his parlv demanded that he accept it, bul
there was not the suchtest danger that Mr.
Roosevelt would he confronted hy this sit?
uation because be would not raise a hand
to promote his own candidacy, whereas
President Taft aras ?rewind dally strenget
It. the public estimation and was as cer?
tain to be renominated as anything can he
certain In mundane affairs. This same
statesman expressed the conviction that
William Barnes, jr., would not oppOBS the
renemlnatlon of President Taft, ami that
while he mipht for a time seek to prevent
an instructed delegation, he said ll whs
quite probable Mr. Rarncs would withdraw
his opposition In due time.
THi: DEMOCRAT!?' CANDIDATE?* -
The Democratic candidates for the Presi?
dential nomination arc finding it more and
more difficult to maintain friendly reiBttona
Their Monde, and even they themselves,
are Indulging In refactions on one an?
other and are saying thincs hard to recofl?
eile with respect, to say nothing of 'riend
ship. The most discreet man In the Demo?
cratic arena is Speaker Clark, but lie has
become so cautious that he has fallen Inte
a position of Innocuous desuetude in the
Mouse and Is even less valuable to that
body than was Asher Hinds when he wa*
House parliamentarian. Represents tlv?
t'nderwood has so completely eclipsed thr
Pike County statesman that the frlen?ls <>1
th?. latter are BSjrlng some very unkind
things about Mr. t'nderwood and ?liars?
that a committee has been extremely nctlvr
in Wall and Mroa?l streets and lowoi
Broadway collecting funds to promote ttV
candidacy of the Alabamian. Then, too
there are reports to the same effect re?
garding the candidacy of (iovernor Wilson
and the friends of both Clark and Cndcr
wood do not hesitate to assert that whai
they call Wilson's mendacity has beet
far too well established to permit of hli
ever being nominated. It is. therefor?*
no exaggeration to Bay that there is everj
promise of as lively a crop of feuds In th?
Democratic ranks as has been witness?-.] it
that party in many a long day.

roesatatlve [indbergh. Republican lasur
gent and author of the resolution provid
ing for an investigation of ih<- "mon?:
trust,'' which scheme has been so enthusl
aatleelly adopted by Representative Henry
of Texas, threw a bomb Into the Demo
eratlc camp tO-dey, when he Issued a state
ment declaring that It was the fear of th
f Democrats that they would lose the .am
[pslga contributions on which they are
! counting which led them to oppose the In?
vestigation of that trust. Mr. Lindbergh ,
charges that the Underwood BShsBBS to dis?
tribute the proposed Investigation among
the several standing committees of the
House would inevitably defeat the purpose
of the Investigation, and Representative
Henry says there is no sincerity among1
?hose who propose his rel?eme for a special
committee. Mr. Mndberch says it is ap?
parent that the Democratic leaders are de?
termine.) there shall be n?> effective Inves?
tigation, and this view Is ?hared bv Mr.
Henry, while William Jennings Bryan con?
tinues to rub -alt In the wounds of the

I PRIMARIES AND SENATORS.-Has the

one of the interesting questions will' Il |
seems certain te come up When 'he time
B ni ves for action on the report on the elec?
tion of Senator Stephenson. of Wisconsin.
Mr. Stephenson's counsel maintain that the
Senate has not the right, and their view Is
sustained bj Senator Herbara, who says Is
the report that any method of electing a
member of the United State? Senate other
than by the legislature of the state is un?
known to the Constitution and is not men?
tioned ta the fedora! laws, trom which
facts he draws the conclusion that a popu?
lar election or nomination of u ?Senator
"amounts to nothing more than a straw
vote." is not binding on the Legislature
and cannot com? within the purview of the?,
Senate Itself. He says, among other things:
"There is no law of the United Slates rec?
ognizing such a thing as a 'candidacy' for j
the I'nlted States Senate, and no legal |
status Is given to the frame of inind COB?
BtltUting an Intention on the part of lite
man himself thai h?? he?-.?in.- a candidate
before the legislature." The ? oniinil tSB
Which Investigated the election ?if Senator
Stephenson found no BVtdeSKS "f the cor?
rupt use of money to promote his election,
hut did find that all the candidates for the
Senate ?pent money "with sucb reckless
disregard for the proprieties as to lUStlf*
the sharpest criticism." it is also of in?
terest that in this, as has been the cas? in
all other state primaries In Wisconsin, less
than half the voters took the troubJs to

who hear?) the speech of Senator I.a Fol?

the conviction that the Wisconsin patriot
was singing his ?wan song. Not Is this
view confln'-d ly any means to men who
are opposed to Mr l.a Follette They <|e- |

all other feeHnga Sonia? of th.- vYIsi on*
8lnite's friends express the view that be is,
both mentally and physically, "all In." and
that he ?till no longer be s factor, even In
the Senate. When a.?ke?l regarding the f

the race In favor of Colonel Roosevelt,
Walter I* Housa-r, the manager of th.- I.a

wholly without foundation, that his princi?

IGNORES BRYAN'S CHARGE!
Underwood Rejects " Monej
Trust" Inquiry Compromise.
IKrem The Trltmn?* Ilnr?*_u. ]
Washington. Feb. 3?Smilingly Ignoring
th? charges of William Jennings Bryan th.i
he Is a "false leader." dominated by th?
money Interests, Repr?sent?t la e Fnderwoo?
pro? ceded calmly to-day to reject the late?
eompromlse resolution for the Investigan??!
of the "mon? y trust," saying that no propo
sitlon to investigate the alleged trust b'
means of a special ?ommlttee would ohtali
the sanction of the Democratic caucus nex
Wedneedsy.
Mr. I'nderwooil says he has the aotes t<
defeat representative Henry, a Rryan dis
? iple, a*, ho pleads for an inquiry by a specla
committee. According to the present plam
of the I'nderwood faction, the prostrat.
form of Mi. Henry will be flguratlvela
trampled upon In caucus. The Texan'i
resolution to investigate the "money trust'
will l?e dissected, emasculated and other
wise subjected to unkind treatment. Aftet
the Democratic war dance it will be appor.
tioncd out among half a dozen Jeeleui
committees of the House, each of whlih
will determine it? peculiar Jurisdiction and
decide whether SB ln?iuiry is necessary.
H? presentatlae Henry, with a gloomy look
Snd a hope of possible compromise, Intro?
duced Mill another resolution to investigate
the "trust" to-day. TheM'nderwoodltcs took
a hurried look at the latest Menrv move
and remark? (1: "Nothing doing''
Mr. Henry now proposes that the Inquiry
shall be conducted by a eommlttee compris?

"That Is still a special committee," said
Mr. UndSTWOOd to-night. "My position is
that this is all a matter of legislation, to he
handled by the several committees named.
Why. then, should we appoint a special
committee'.' We will refer the Henry re?o
lutlon in sections to these committees for
such election as they ?leem proper."
"How about Bryan's charge that this
means no Investigation and a surren?ler to
Wall Street?" Mr. I'nderwood wig ask?'d.
The majority leader, with a avrarled
smile, obsi-rved that he was accustomed to
Bryan's attacks.
In reply to Representative Henry's state?
ment that he would demand an "open "ali?
ens next Wednesday, Mr. I'nderwood as?
serted that he was perfectly avlillng that
the public might know wheie he stool on
the "money trust" question and that he

The policy favoring 'he recall of judge*.
reoelved stinging criticism from a tnembei
of the bench at the annual ?linnei of tin
Queens County Mar Association lasl nlahl
at thf Hotel Aator, when Jostles Temp*
kins, of the Supreme Court, characterised
it a:? :? sa\ag<- and un just ?fln'ilc attack upor
the Judiciary that adV< CatOd a revolution
In our system of government arid the de?
struction o? oui organic law.
"Mover before in Mi?- ulstorj ??' our
.ntry," he said, "wer?' there so many
laws, ? Ivl! and penal, for the comfort, con?
ven?an-e and safety of man. aroman ami
chiiii in even station of life a-? now.''
While he admitted t lia ? there \?ere de?
fects in our judicial system, he contended
that mi'ier the excuse of rectifying thenl
h? the Institution of the judicial recall, the
? m minion, with Its checks ami balances
that have i?.,n the bulwark of our Institu?

About two ?ears ago it became apparent
that the Vanderbllt?. Harnmans and Mr.
gloane had given up their fight when they
?old the vacant plot at the southeast cor?
ner of Fifth avenue and :?2d street, for
i merly the old I-angham Hotel site, with the
business restriction clause removed. Last
week John I). Rockefeller purchased the
horn?- of Fran'is S. Klnnev, at No. 19 West
Mth street, to prevent business from get?
ting hold of the site. The Klnnev property
Is opposite hls home and a few doors west
of his son?. Ills brother's home is at the
northeast corner of Fifth avenue and 54th
