WASHINGTON, Dec G--Colonel Morrison, of IL
I;,ois is not so happy now as he was Immediately
after the nomination of Mr.. Carlisle. The Illinois
statesman is not only universally regarded by MS
fellow members as the power behind the Speaker

impress him with q conviction of their merits ana

want to tend doors fold documents beset nm

he say that the Speaker will fill the chairman
ships and appoint the committees or deny that lie
can control the appointment of door-keepers, Tor
neither Congressman nor ofce-seekerS oeheNe MN
and they actually make life burden to him. Colo

men in Congress- but he is in great danger now, for
there is no hope that half tie Democratic Congress
men will be satisfied with the committee places as
signed to them that places can be gwen To more
