WASHINGTON, Jan. 25--The caucus Of
Democratic members Of the house last night
lasted over two hours. Mr. Carlisle ex-
planned the principal features OF the new
code prepared by the Republican members
Of the committee on rules. Mr.. Carlisle
said that the radical and dangerous features
of the new code proposed to abolish the
house calendar; TO revive the morning hour;
to make 100 members constitute quorum
to abolish as motions Of privilege those for
the taking Of a recess or for the adjourn
ment Of the house until fixed date Another
and very important innovation provided for
by the new code, Mr.. Carlisle explained,
provided for the transaction Of business dur
ing the morning hour. BY this rule com
mittee on making a report could demand
immediate consideration Of the bill on which
the report is made, and could continue 70
have it considered during the morning hour,
day after day, until disposed Of No motion
to consider another question, except that Of
another committee, can under this rule be
entertained while the bill is undisposed Of
All the members agreed that an attempt on
the part Of the Republicans to have any Of
these cases considered before the new code
of rules is adopted should be opposed in
every possible way, even by filibustering Of
the most radical character.

Mrs. Rooney told the reporter how Willie
had suffered with eatarrh since he was lit
tie baby and added:
why, he was stuffed up so that several
times he nearly emothered to death and we
thought surely he would die Within year
or two he kept getting worse. and we got doc
tors, who said he had catRrrh in the head, but
they didn't do him much good.
'At last my husband took Willie TO Phila-
delphia to see Drs. Mccoy and Wildman, Of
lS22 Chestnut street. We didn't exactly feel
that we could afford it, but my husband found
the charges low. 1t wasn't convenient either,
but my husband argued that it was better 10
have Willie's catarrh cured while he was
younR and it could be cured, than TO let it run
until he grew up. when il might be too late "
At this juncture Willie began to tell the re-
porter how he used to have pains over his
eyes and how miserable he used to feel and
how poor his appetite used to- be. But now, ,nhe
said, II don't have any more pains in my head
and feel like another boy and can eat lots, y
Willie got so bad" continued Mrs. Rooney,
that he looked like a little walking ghost
We sent him to several doctors, but Drs Nc
Coy and Wildman are the only doctors who
pletely. He's a different boy now He di Int
use to eat anything hardly, but he eats splen-
did now and he is a great deal stuuter OIL
he's all right now and Drs. Mccoy and Wild
man deserve all the credit in the world for
what they have done .
Mr. Rooney is delighted over the way Drs
MeCoy and Wildman treated his boy and is
quite enthusiastic about the great change that
has come over Willie since he first took him
TO Drs. Mccoy and Wildman on the lith Of
last August
