"BIG TIM" SULLIVAN
HOPELESSLY INSANE
NO COMPROMISE
FOR REPUBLICANS
They Reject Efforts of Dento-'

failure to-day.
Attempt a: ? compromise- was the
result of the meeting of the WM* etal
committee appoint. ?I by tbe Deaae
c ratio caucus in Di-cember to evolve
a method of handling the hundreds1
of appointments that have been sent
in by thejfitaddtml .?inte December 15.
leaders informally proposed t-> the "e
ptaMicana til Saj that five member.-;
ha selected by each party to take up!
the task of "weeding out" the petol-'
insr nominations. A number of Re-j
publicans were called together to con-j
sider the i roposal. and promptly re?
jected it.
The outcome of the failure will be
a renewal of the fight between the two
parties next week. It Is expected that
an executive session of the Senate wilt
be held Tuesday or Wednesday. Tlio
It-i.jbllcan forces then will insist that
nominations be tak- n up In their regu?
lar order and that no discrimination
b- shown against any of the Taft
nominations. A conference of Demo?
crats will be held to-morrow to de?
termine what action shall be taken.
Republicans declared to-day there
would be no attempt to filibuster
acainst the Democrats or to keep the
Set.ate in continuous executive seeslo:-,.;
but an attempt would be made at once!
to force an Issue with the Democrats
as to the methods of procedure upon
the various appointments
"To submit the question of nomi?
nations to a commltt-e would require
the holding of a Republican caucus."
said Senator Smoot to-ntKht. "That
was not practicable and we concluded
for that and other reasons that the
preferable pjan was to allow the nomi?
nations to come before the entire Sen?
ate in the usual way. We shall In?
sist that the calendar be taken tip in
the order in which the nominations
apT.ear."
Th- refusal of the Republicans to
make any . ompronim.- upon the Taft
appointments will have the effect of
baiting the plan of the Democratic
leaders to support the confirmation of

Washington. January 10.?That thn
present concentration of money and
credit "has gone far enough:" that "in
bad hands' it would hav" a Kid effect
upon the nation, that th.- safety in the
situation lies In the personnel of the
men in control, and that "present con?

statements mad.' to-daj i>.- CJeor?- K.
Hak. r, master ftnanei. r. as the . limaat
of two days' examination b?forr the
House money trust committee. But Mr.
Maker d iclared that ? bad hands'' could
not retain control.

of a da) of routine examination, dur

tail operations of himself, his bank,
tin- First National of Kern York, and J.

Baker's counsel. Foster A. Baker and
John C. Spooner. The committr. had
gone beyond its usual Hour of adjourn,
meat in oider to conclude the examina?
tion of Mr. Bak. r to-day. Samuel L'n
termyor, counsel for the om/nittce was
arndlng tSrough a mass of statistics
r'lating to bond .ssu. s handled by Mr.
Baker s associates Soddenb h. paus?
ed, leaned forward in hi? chair and shot
a question at the eeventy-thrce-year
oM Snancier. who, d> spite his long ex,
animation, aas cheerful and conhdent.
Thinks There Is \ci trust.
"Mr. Haket., \ suppose >ou du not
think there is a money trust'.'" demand?
ed tic lawyer.
Committee, spectators and counsel sat
forward In their chairs, and the Hear?
ing room, but a moment since dull and
stolid, grew tense with expectancy. The
witness leaned ha-k in his .-hair, smil?
ed quietly about him. and replied:
"I do not think there is."
?What do you u;idci?tand hv a money*
ImatT" Mr. Dntermycr continued.
"1 give it up. I don t know," said Mr.
Baker, with a chuckle.
"Then you do not know w hether thrraj
is one or not, do you?" d manded Mr.
' 'ntermyer.
"No. i do not. I do not take much
interest in that."
'T>? you think there is any kind of*
trust in anything?'- queried th:- law?
yer.
"That is what tiie>- call them?al|
these combinations." said the witness.
"Thor,- are sonic, are there?"
They call them that, yes, sip'
"And whether there' ig a money;
trust or not you would not like ta
say?"
"No"
"Suppose ? said Mr Cntermyer, "wn
de;ine a money trust as an established
identity of community of interest be?
tween a few leaders of Snan< e which
has been created and h, Id together
through stockholders, interlocking d!?
r ctorates and oth -.- forms of domma*

roads, public service and industrial
corporations, and which has resulted
In vast and growing concentration
and control of money and credit in the
