ihrBe NUMBER OF the republican
representatives opposed to on the
ways and means committee plan of Gu.
ban reciprocity held q private meeting
at 8 o'clock in the afternoon in the
committee room of Mr.. William AL.
den Smith. 1t was not intended 10
assemble the full strength of the OBJ
position, but rather to have represen-
tatives from each state delegation.
Those present numbered about thirty
i've. The standing of members from
the several states was fully canvassed
and later it was asserted that this
canvass showed that majority could
be mustered against the ways and
means proposition. It was stated that
as between the Tawney rebate plan
and the postponsment plan the latter
was gaining strength.
Mr.. Tawney manifested no desire
to insist on his plan and said it had
served to develop the sentiment Of
postponing any action. The matter
led to an understanding that there
would b.no effort to force a vote next
Tuesday night the element opposed to
the committee plan expressed will.
ingness to have full discussion.

Washington. Speaker Henderson
and Chairman Payne, of the ways and
means committee, and Senator Allison,
member of the finance committee,
called at the White House Saturday
in relation to the pending controversy
over Cuban reciprocity. There was
the most positive declination to dis
cuss the purpose of the call. It was
said, however, that the president had
in no way changed his attitude favor
able to reciprocity. In this connect
ion there were renewed limitations of
q special message which would clear
ly set forth the presidents views on
the subject. The Republican mem
bers of the ways and means commit
tee favorable to Cubsn reciprocity
have held long conferences to perfect
their organization for carrying forward
the contest. In connection with the
case the belief has gained ground that
there will be special increse If it
proves to be necessary.
There was renewed talk of compro-
mise Saturday, one report being IL
per cont Reciprocity might be sub
stituted for 20 per cent. Both sides,
however, denied the IL per cent COM
promise story. The plan Of having
visit Cuba and investigate
the needs for reciprocity was reviS ed
during the day and was discussed as
a possible solution. although there
was no indication that those in au-
shortly were ready to accept the plan.

Miss Alice Roosevelt, daughter of
the president, will not attend the COR

White House officials decline to dis
cuss the matter it was stated by those
in position to know that the president
had decided that she should not 60.
II was learned Friday night that
the reason why Miss Roosevelt Will

The House Saturday closed the gen.
eral debate upon the bill to classify
the rural free delivery service and
place the carriers under the contract
system. 1t is expected the vote will
be taken on Monday.
Some preliminary routine business
preceded the debate on the bill. A
bill was passed to add Baxter, Marion
and Seercy counties to the western
judicial district Of Arkansas.
The conference report on the bill to
give the Spanish claims commission
power to compel the attendance of wit
ssee and the production of papers
was adop ted.
Mr.. Sims (Tennessee) then rose to
question Of privilege in connection
with the adoption of the conference
report on the permanent census bill.
He commended that the statement of
the conferees with reference to Sec
ton five. which originally placed all
the employees Of the bureau at the
time Of the passage Of the act under
the protection Of the service has "mis-
led and deceived" the house. The
speaker held that as the whole SUBJ
iect had been disposed of no question
of privilege was presented.
Later 10 the afternoon a resolution
was introduced in the house by Mr..
Hughes West Virginia. stating that
it was the intention Of congress in
passing an act creating permanent
census bureau to place in the cIassi-
fed service Of the government all the
Of the census Office above
the grade Of unskillsd loborsr whose
names were on the rolls of the census
bureau at the date Of the approval of
the act. The resolution further pro-
vides that this intention shall be car
Red out by the passage of the rssolu-
lion.

delivery bill was then resumed and
