REED rs MAKING NEW RULES.
Speaker Will Be Ready with His Re
port After Holidays.

WASHINGTON December IA new code
Of rules for the house OF representatives,
will be presented by Speaker Reed and ms
associates Of the committee on rules after
the holiday recess.
AT present the house Is proceeding under
the rules of two years ago, these having
been adopted pending the framing or new
rules The present purpose is to readopt
the old rules without important changes
Representative Barrett. Of Massachusetts,
IS to be given hearing at an early day on
two amendments which he proposes one
of these seeks to give the minority larger
rights than 1t enjoys st present In prevent
Ing amendments and substitutes ana IN
securing order during debate.
The rules are very strict and individual
members have little latitude In securing adj
dittons to the appropriation bills. Mr. Bar
rett's extended service as speaker OF the
Massachusetts house of representatives,
gives added weight to the changes he IS
urging although it IS not expected that
they will be fayorably considered by the
committee. In view Of published reports
that Mr. Reed was framing a rule to cut or
"rders" to appropriation bills, originating
in the senate it is stated by one familiar
with the speakers views, that he has not
contemplated any such action and that the
house could not do so II 1t would. When
such amendments come over from the sem
ate the house is obliged to act on them,
NV cOnCurring or nOn-COnCurring, and 1t is
said that this action could, not be changed
so as to aOridge the rights of the senate.

involving a reduction Of salaries aggregat-
ing $4,000. Mr.. Handy, democrat, or Del
aware, suggested that this amendment
might result in the removal of ninety
five democrats whom the commissioners Of
pensions thinks could not be spared and
later on the appointment of nnety-liVe
republicans when it became evident that
the force was too meager.
Mr.. Bingham said the clerks were all I'M
der the civil service.
Mr. Cannon said the Increase In the
force of the pension office was made nee
essary during the administration of Com
missioner Dudley. when the WORK, after
the passage of the act of 1890. was four
years behind. but it was now up to date.
Mr.. Dockery thought the reduction IN
the pension force should be 800 Instead
of nInety-five. In his opinion If the dead
wood We're cleared out of the office the
work of the bureau would actually be
expedited
Mr. Todd democrat, OF Michigan, moved
an amendment to the amendment provid-
ing that the reductions should be made
from the several political parties in pro-
portion to their representation on the pom
sion office force. The amendment to the
amendment was ruled out on point Of
order and the original amendment was
adopted.
The committee then arose and at 5:05
p. M the house adjourned.

Measure VIII Be Reported to House
This Week by Judiciary Committee.

WASHINGTON December IA national
bankruptcy bill similar in It's substantial
features to the HendeTson-Cuberson bill
passed by the house last session Will be re-
ported to the house this week by the Judici-
airy COMMITTEES.
The bill provides for both voluntary
bankruptcy and involuntary bankruptcy
By it's provisions any one may file a petit
ton and go into voluntary bankruptcy, eX-
cept a corporation. The latter may be
forced into 1t, but not otherwise. Wage
earncrs. laborers and farmers cannot be
forced into it.
bankruptcy for certain designated causes.
In general these involuntary causes relate
TO fraudulent conduct on the part of tho
bankrupt. The clause in past measures,
providing that q man who permits his com
incrcial paper to 80 unpaid for thirty days
shan be an involuntary bankrupt, is elmi-
mated. The general effect of the bill is to
discharge the bankrupt of all debts after
the estate has been administered. and 1t
has been found that there has been no
fraudulent conduct.
The bankrupt measure IS so framed as to
make its administration simple and mex
pensive. It involves only two officers,
referee and trustee.
