There will be change of leadership on

For Minority Leadership.
There are several candidates for the po-
sition of leader of the minority. but James
ID. Richardson of Tennessee is clearly in
the lead. and will probably be nominated
at the Democratic caucus which will be
held the Saturday before congress con-
venes.
Both Henderson and Richardson are vet

been prominent on the floor of the house
for many years Dissimilar in disposition

floor.
Henderson is powerful speaker but

Make Political Capital.
The Democratic members of congress
will vote almost solidly against expul-

expel. Some eastern Republican leaders
who have been interviewed here have
shown a disposition 10 make the question
partisan one, in the hope of weakening
Democratic congressman from doubtful
districts by the charge Of pro- Mormon
ism. But 1t has developed that a consid-
cradle number of Republicans will vote
fer Roberts, on the ground that expul-
sion of a regularly elected and fully quail
ified representative would be gross out
rage.
In an interview with your correspond

Wyoming, said: Il have no doubt what
