Washington, March 22.—Now that the smoke of battle has begun to dis appear the Republican "insurgents" of the house are beginning to discern at what price they won the rules victory at the beginning of the session. They are making a careful study of the Fitz gerald amendments to the rules to ascertain just what their effect will be. The general feeling among the mem bers is that it will be more difficult hereafter to get a bill through the house under unanimous consent. In stead of having only the speaker to satisfy all the members must be shown the wisdom of the legislation, probably unimportant to them or the public, but often of interest to specific localities. It is stated that the amendments will force votes next winter on such measures as anti-injunction bills, a more rigid federal regulation of inter state shipments of intoxicating llquor3, a prohibition meisure for the District of Columbia and amendments to the Sherman anti-trust law so as to ex empt labor unions from its operations.

On this same ballot we stood six for guilty of murder in the first degree, with mitigating cir cumstances live for murder in the second degree, with twenty years, the maximum penalty, and one for acquit tal. The ballots for two days showed the same result. Later the man who voted for acquittal went over to mur der in the second degree, but demand ed that only ten years be assessed. The rest of us did not deem ten years as anything like adequate, so we dis agreed again. Of course, all this re fers to the Coopers, not Sharp, whom we had acquitted. "Finally the man who was holding out for ten years agreed to twenty years and the six who were voting for a first degree verdict agreed to this verdict."
