All legislation by congress, he said, "ought to be open and above board." Contradictory .Mr. Mac.in said he wanted to direct attention to "lie "diai l ep..ncy in Mr. Peary's story." This was the speed which the explorer said he made from the time Capta n Bartlstt left him until lie rea< hsd tiie pole. Peary said that for live days he made -J0.4 mill I a day. but Mr. Macon said this appeared very singular in view of the fact that tjie Peary party had made but 9.0S miles a day up to the tinio Bartlett left. "The astonishing- part of Mr. Peary'a nent,' laid Mr. Macon, "is the astonishing number of miles he trav i day ait-, r Bartletl left him and when no white man was with him as witness, his only companion being his negro valet and four Eskimos.

He declared that It would bankrupt the United States to enter on such a policy. "My amendment provides that the United States shall pay but one-half, suggested Mr. Hobson. "Ton per cent of it would cost more than your war with Japan would cost in a thousand years," shouted Mr. Payne. Mr. Hobson merely smiled in "Deliver the country from the Im agination of the gentleman who comes here from Alabama," concluded Mr. I'il V II ' ' The bill was laid aside for the day.

Root, Backed by Administration at Washing. ton, Against Some Old. Time Party Chiefs ... . I (Auoclated rrtii) ,*,•;? ALBANY, N. v.. March o.—Timothy L. Woodruff, chairman of the Republi can state committee, arrived here to night and took charge of the fight against the effort of Senator Root to whip Republican senators into line for the election of Root's candidate for senate majority leader. Woodruff's hasty Journey to Albany proved the Republican drsjanliation has ■ real battle on hand, and Judging from the defiant attitude of his ad herents, those who stand ready to obey the i lies of Root and of Governor Hughes will nave difficulty in electing Senator . Harvey D. Hlnman of uing hamton president pro tern at the cau cus tomorrow. . The situation tonight resolved Itself into Woodruff and Barnes, witn such of the old party leaders as still control their own counties, against Root and Hughes, backed by the administration at Washington. Indications tonight were that no can didate would have enough votes in the caucus to assure election, and the cau cus might adjourn again without nam ing a new leader. According to the claims of the three camps, Republican senators now stand as follows: For Cobb, II; for Hinman, 13; for Davis, 4; doubtful, 1; necessary for election, 17. The Republican situation in the past twenty-four hours has undergone so swift .a change that the most experi enced politicians confess themselves at sea. If a majority of the. Republican senators openly defy Root It is evident the party will face a split of unprece dented dimensions. Cobb'i friends declare tonight that Root was misled and that lie never would have tried to assert his author ity so publicly unless be had believed that a word from him would settle the situation. ••They gold bricked him, that's all," ■aid one of the recalcitrants. If Root's leadership is disowned, Borne Republicans declared tonight that nothing but the return of Theodore Roosevelt could cement the party In time to present an unbroken front to the enemy at the next state eelctlon. The present disagreement Is the first test of Senator Root's power.

Hall said he figured on a grpss profit of 15 per cent, but was satisfied with I i.. i profit of 5 per cent. This caused Benator Braoot to Inquire: "Then how IS it you have accumu lated 185,000 in fifteen years'/" The reply of Hall was somewhat eva sive, but the point was not pressed. Hall said that Elfin creamery but ter was standard and that the butter price was fixed at Elgin. Senator Lodge has discovered that there was a time In the past when prices were unusually high. The fact came to him through an old document of the twenty-fourth congress. The pa- per Ml accompanied by 11 private memorandum of expenses leapt by a clerk, which showed that tba pike of sugar was 14 cents a pound nt that time, flour $8 (i barrel and illuminating oil *l per gallon. <m the other hand, labor was paid only 75 cents a day.
