BAD FOR CLOTURE.
The Outlook for Republican Gas
Law Is Dubious.

The Outlook for Republican Gag
Law Is Dubious.
WASHINGTON, Dec. 50.-Among the
few members congregated in the cham
Der of the house to-day after that bodv
had adjourned the fate of the election
bill was fruitful topic of conversation.
Many of the leading Republicans were
sanguine of the bill being enacted into
law, but some were less confident of it's
being placed upon the statute books.
One prominent Republican said in con-
verSation to-day:
''If the bill comes from the senate in
an amended form its doom is sealed. In
fact, believe it is already dead, as l
do not think it will pass the senate.
Even should it do so, it cannot run the
gauntlet of the house unless there is a
Republican quorum present and it is
almost impossible to secure one at the
present session. OF course, we might
call caucus, and by making the bill an
imperative party measure. obtain the
presence of the absenteeS, but hardly
think this course will be followed. Ii
the Democrats persist in absenting
themselves so as to prevent the count
ing OF quorum, we are almost help
less"
The Democratic course will be one of
obstruction, should the bill come from
the senate. Every bill upon the speak
er's table having precedence to the
elections bill will be used to obstruct
the consideration of that measure, and
yea and nay votes will be demanded
upon the disposition of each of them.
When the election bill is finally reached
motion will be made by one of it's Re-
publican champions to concur in the
senate amendments. This will supply
the Democrats with an opportunity to
practice their filibuStering tactics, and
their avoWed intention is to leave the
hall in order to break a quorum. There
| is good deal of speculation among the
Republicans in the new house and
| senate as to the effect of
such tactics ON the part of
] their opponents. Of course every
thing turns on the ability of the
| Republicans to maintain a quorum Of
their own party. The strongest show
ing made during this session was 145, OF
| % less than quorum. The speaker
feels that quorum can be obtained for
short time at least for party emer-
gency, as he regards the disposition of
the election bill, and it is said that
| Chairman Cannon, of the appropria-
lions committee, has laid three wagers
that quorum will be in attendance
when needed. 1t is entirely improba-
BILE that any effort will be made to re-
| ject the senate amendments to the bill
| if it reaches the house. That would in
| volve conference which means not
| only the maintenance of a quorum in
| the house for a more or less prOtracted
period of time Ga difficult if not impos
sible undertaking., but the return OF
the bill to the senate at date SO peril
ously near adjournment that even the
closure would probably fail to secure
final action upon it before the Fifty-frs
congress expires.

Read Before the Body.
WASHINGTON, Dec. 30.-The morning
session of the American Economic asso-
citation to-day was occupied in part by a
discussion on industrial and technical
education. Prof. Davis R. Dewey, of
Boston, read:a paper on Limits of Pub
licity." This was followed by an elab-
crate paper by Prof Edward w. Bemis,
Of Nashville. Tenn, ON the municipal
ownership of gas works in the United
States. The writer held that in cities
exceeding 10000 inhabitants the cost of
the entire plant was less than Sc for
every thousand feet of gas sold during
the year, and from IS to S. in most
cities of over $4,000. The capitaliza-
ton, much in excess of this, common in
American cities, and sometimes two to
fourfold, on which dividends were paid,
the writer said, reveal the monopoly
profits of privately owned gas works.
At the afternoon session the first paper
was by Hon. Seymour Dexter, OF Ell
mira, n. Y, on the Growth and Econ
omic Value of Building and Loan Asso-
Citations" An address by Prof. r. g.
Moulton. OF the University of Cam
bridge, Eng, on the subject of "Uni-
versity Extension in England" closed
the afternoon session.
