CONTINGENT FUNDS.

How They Are Expended-Why the New
Correspondent Thinks He Has an Item.
Special to the Indianapolis Journal
WASHINGTON, Jan. S--The Secretary of the
Senate and Clerk of the House make report an
nually of the manner in which the contingent
fund of their respective houses is expended.
These reports are made in detail, no item of ex-
penditure being too small for omission from the
published statement. From the contingent fund
each senator and representative is paid 1925 an
nually, that being the amount allowed by law
for the purchase of newspapers, postage and sta
tionery For general accommadion each house
has an established stationery department, in
which all articles of that kind and any fancy
articles members may desire can be purchased at
a small advance on the cost price, the amount of
each purchase being charged against the allow
ance for newspapers and stationery. Some mem
bers purchase their stationery elsewhere and or
der newspapers for themselves instead of having
the Secretary of the Senate or the Clerk of the
House do so for them. Such members, at the
end of the session, draw their 1925 allowance. In
all cases the published report shows every item
ordered by members and charged against the
fund, pocket books, pen-knives opera glasses,
silk umbrellas, visiting cards, ETC., being fire.
quently found in the lists of articles charged.
These and similar articles are generally pur
chased by members during the holiday season
| for presents.
The report of the expenditure of the Senate
contingent fund has recently been published and
some of the newly-arrived correspondents here
have seized upon it, and are telegraphing to their
papers extracts and comments which causes con-
siderable mirth among the older denizens of
| Newspaper Row. This is an annual
foray in which new men indulge
unless coached by the older heads These new
hands proceed upon the conviction that the gen
t,smen who are charged in the report with the
various articles named obtain them improperly,
without sanction of law, and that they are just
so much ahead of their fellow members who do
not draw such articles. 1t is needless to say
! that every senator and representative draws
the $l25 allowed for postage, etc. either in cash
or by purchasing such articles, to that amount
as he may desire. The Secretary of the Senate
! and Clerk of the House simply act as purchasing

Special to Chicago News.
Henry Watterson, one of the propretors of
the Mcdonald boom, arrived here to-day to take
temporary charge of the Democratic party.
Dressed in a dark morning suit, with gray lap
coat, he accompanied his mother this afternoon
in round of calls upon the wives of the Justices
of the Supreme Court. Mrs Watterson is a
tall, erect, active old lady, with coal-black eyes
and snowy white hair, arranged in round puffs
about her expressive face. She look nearly as
young as her son, who is careworn from eXces-
sive responsibility. He was almost the only
gentleman in the long lines which fled through
the houses of the various judges He deployed
all of his social batteries and was rated 1.-The
sweetest fellow" by the wives of a number of
prominent and influential official persons. He is
highly delighted with his first days work. He
feels that he has the ladies with him, and, if he
only can secure few men, the Mcdonald boom
will once more be able to walk alone
The next and most difficult task that Waiter
son has in hand is preparation of bill for the

kentucky who thinks that Watterson has in
him the stuff for great party leader, but with
this man as a nucleus the Kentucky editor ex-
poets to draw about him formidable following
before the winter is over.
