He prayed for the welfare of the ma

might be free to worship as he sees fit.

BRIEF SESSION OF THE HOUSE.
Admission of Utah's Representative
Postponed Till To-Day,

Washington, Jan. 6.-The session OF
the House to-day was exceedingly
brief. Mr.. Frederick, (Rep. Kan.),
preferred a request for unanimous
consent for the swearing-in OF
Clarence T.. Allen, the gentleman elect
ed to represent the new State of Utah,
which was admitted to the Union on
Saturday. lie explained that Mr.. Al
LENS election was regular and there
was no contest but as the Governor
and other State officers did not assume
their offices under the Presidents proc
lamation until to-day their signatures
to Mr.. Aliens credentials had of course
not been signed.
Mr. Crisp, (Dem. Ga.), did not ques-
tion the facts as stated but thought
Mr.. Allen should not be sworn in until
a report had been made upon the case
by committee.
The matter was therefore referred
to the Judiciary committee with lievc
to report at any time.
On Mr.. Hits motion resolution
was adopted appointing Hon. William
l.. Wilson to the place on the Board
of Regents of the Smithsonian Institu-
ton, made vacant by the deathof Hen
ry Coffee. Then at 1920 the House adj

probable that no one here outside of
the President and probably Secretary
Olney knew of Secretary Carlisle's in
tention. Indeed, it is believed the con-
clusion was not reached until late yes
terday afternoon. The new bonds
wln not differ in any respect from
those issued to the syndicate and such
as are needed after the supply now on
hand has been exhausted will be print
ed from the old plates. Persons well
qualified to judge of the result of the
issue do not look for large subscrip-
tions from private individuals, and the
opinion is expressed that the syndi-
Gates bid for the entire issue will be
accepted.

A SURPRISE TO TIE HOUSE
THE BOND CALL WAS NOT EX-
PECTED BY MEMBERS.
Senators Are Not Dis posed 10 Talk
About it and the y 1mocrats are
Non-CommittaI


Washington, ID. G., Jan 6.-Secre-
tary Carlisle's bond call gave an en-
tire surprise to the House, for it had
not been expected to appear before the
middle of the week, nor had its terms
been anticipated. The plan is gener-
ally approved by members of both
parties who believe there is neces-
sity for bonds, and those who are OPP
posed to bond issues altogether
think that the call for bids is much
better than the arrangement with the
New York syndicate, which was gem
orally expected. There was some dis
satisfaction expressed because the
President had not seen lit 10 wait un-
til the Senate acted on the House rev.
enue bill, although there is no eNpee-
tation that the bond bill will pass the
Senate. Among the Democratic enc
mics of bonds the talk was heard of a
resolution declaring the sentiment of
the House to be against their issuance,
but this was considered impracticable,
as well as exceedingly unlikely TO pass.
Mr. Cannon. Chairman of the APP
preparations Committee, said of the
call: "As / understand it, the pro-
posed syndicate arrangements sub
stantially looked toward placing the
bonds in the United States. Ii these
bonds were noW ready for delivery and
the country understood that they were
to be had for 40 or liz, which is below
the market price, for similar bonds, /
have no doubt the banks would take
them To increase their circulation,
using the gold in their vaults to make
payments. | hope they viii do 50 as
the bonds run for thirty years and can
no doubt be bought on a three per
cent basis and would yield small
profit TO he banks for circulation on
that basis"
Senators did not seem disposed TO
talk about the bond call issued by Sec
retarv Carlisle. Democratic Senator'S
generally were non committai. Sen
ators Harris and Vest, both members
of the Finance Committee, said that
they had not read the call and had
nothing to say Senator German
said the call was all right; and the
same as the first two bond issues by
this administration. There were not
any Republican Senators about the
Capitol to-day and most Of them we're
reticent as TO the call. Senator Nor
rill. Chairman OF the Finance Com
mite, said that there was nothing TO
say about the call, that it spoke for it
self.
Mr.. Walker, of Massach chusetts, Chair
man of the Banking and Currency
Committee, said: when the Presi-
dent has Il chance to issue ten year
bonds and issues thirty year bonds,
he does an act that will be universally
condemned in the near future If not
to-day. The people will demand that
these bonds shall be paid even at a
considerable premium before ten
years and probably within five and
will execrate the men who have bound
them hand and foot for thirty years.
Mr.. Hepburn, Csep. Ia.) said: This
call places Senator Hill in rather
queer light, after his assertions that
nothing of the sort was contemplated.
1t looks as though his defense OF the
administration was unauthorized
