WASHINGTON, Nov. 15.-Although
the next house of representatives will
be largely Republican, considerable re-
modelling Of committees on account Of
| the new faces which will come into the
house will take place. Many Repub-
hcans We're not renominated. and
some were not reelected after having
received nominations.
Some of the vacancies are on i'm
pcrtant committees. That on the com
mittee on rules, caused by the death Of
Judge Crisp, will have to be filled at
once. 1t has been intimated that
Henry G.. Turner, of Georgia, would be
selected for the remaining short ses-
sion, although another person would
have to be chosen in the next con-
gress as Turner was not reelected.
Some of the silver Democrats may OBJ
| ject to this, as Turner is q gold man
1t is said that Bailey, of Texas, may be
the choice, but if Turner is appointed
it will give the Democrats an oppor-
tunity to designate the leader of the
minority in the next house by the NOM
ination Of a candidate for speaker
