The MAYOR AND THE THEATERS.

BY Union Associated Press.

BY Union Associated Press.
Washington, May 3O.-Speaker
David B. Henderson is no longer
so popular a leader as he once
was. Four good joits in quick
succession have convinced him
that he is no good. He had fine
success, as a rule, during the
last congress and was doing very
Well last year, until the Cuban
reciprocity bill came up. which
measure, he with many other re
publicans, was against. He went
sc far as to write a letter about
his position as speaker of the
house of representatives., insist
ing that the same relief be given
to Cuba as to the subsidized su-
gar trust. The letter was hardly
mailed before Henderson him
self changed about face and took
with him his leaders.
Just here something happened
that gave him a rude awakening.
Representatives whom he had
previously controlled concluded
to stay where they we're at first.
After that it became a regular
thing to overturn the leaders.
Henderson's naughty mien and
majestic frown assumed the die
tatorial actions of a Gar. The
crown does not fit him comfort
ably. There is a proposition
ahoat to eliminate the speaker
as Il member Of the committee
on rules.
