Democratic Leader Asked to 0
 K, Minority Appointments
.ALABAMIANS WELL PLACtU
Underwood and Taylor Go on the Ap. propriations Committee, and Bowie on Aericulture-Few Changes
 Are Expected.
BY PATTERSON sTEALEY.

Washington, November 10.-There seems no doubt here that Speaker Cannon is going to follow with almost no exception the recommendations for minority eom- mittee assignments presented by Repre- sentative Williams, the Democratic lead- CT. It is known that in several cases where the speaker had personal friends, he has referred them to Mir. Williams with the request that the democratic leader give his O. k. to the proposition. This is quite a new feature in committee appointments.
 Henderson and Reed gave little atten- tion to the minority leaders requests. but Cannon has met the prediction that he would be more liberal than any other re- publican speaker for years.
 As stated last night, it now seems fully settled that Representative Underwood will not go on thu ways and means but the appropriations committee Repre- sentative Williams said today that he had recommended Mir. Underwood to tho sp1Aker for this position and was satis- fled that he would be appointed. q did this" said MT Williams flor the reason that l wanted the strongest man that could get for the appropriations commit- tee, and l, therefore, recommended MT. Underwood. Naturally the work on the ways and means committee is more con- genial to MT. Underwood, but the ap- propriations committee Is one of the best assignments in the house and from a ds- trict and state standpoint, he will aeeom- plish more than on the ways and means committee. Appropriations will have two Alabama members in the new congress, Underwood and Taylor. According to the present arrangement, Bowie is to go on agriculture. All the Alabama members have good committee assignments, and 1t fEspxprted there will JlcHfew changes
 The minority representation of ways and means, the personnel of which will doubtless be announced shortly, will probably include Williams, Champ Clark of Missouri and Mcclellan of New York
 When Mcclellan goes off in December. the vacancy is expected to go to Scudder of New York, as the place is thought to belong to an eastern man.

Paris, November 10.A dispatch received here from Cape Haytien says that after three days fighting, President Wos-y- Gil took refuge in the German consulate at San Domingo The revolution is consid- cred at an end.
 Washington, November 10.-Late tonight Assistant Secretary Loomis of the state department, called at the executive offices of the white house and spent some time in the telegraph room. He refused to admit that he was cabling fresh instructions to Minister Powell. although he said that late in the afternoon he notified the minister that the cruiser Baltimore was now on her way to that city and probably would reach there some time during the night
 The Associated Press dispatch reporting the equalization of the city of San Do- mingo to the revolutionists, was shown to Minister Loomis. and he expressed the opinion that such action might have taken place subsequent to Minister Powelrs ca blegram that the situation was serious

state and district committees should be proportionately divided between the races.
 Charles H. Scott of Montgomery was endorsed unanimously for national com mltteeman to succeed J, W. Dimmick, a lily white and J. O. Thompson of Bir- mlngham or Oscar Hundley of Huntsville will succeed w. I. Wellman of Huntsville, the lily white state chairman. Lily white postmasters at Anniston, Opelika, Anda- lusia and Marion are to lose their places and men were designated for these posi- tions. Editor Dennis of the Alabamian, published at Birmingham, was endorsed for postmaster at Marion
 The referees are greatly gratihed with their days work and negroes are jubi- lant. The referees declare that lily whites have opened their graves and laid down; that no delegation but a Roose- welt delegation will be recognized by the national convention.
 At a public meeting tonight the Rev. Den Richmond Babbtt of Brooklyn made an address on the question of race preju- dice which evoked much enthusiasm He dwelt extensively on the subject of mob law. and in this connection said:
 This mob monster must be dealt with in short, quick, decisive way. It's death must be swift from the guns of law. Lynching is emurder and lynchers are plain murderers. to whom the law should give no quarter"
 Reference was made by Dr. Rabbit to declarations of certain orators regard ing the demands of lynch law to deal with crimes of negroes, but he declared these people do not represent the south in holding mobs. lynchings and fanclfui quixotic schemes of expatriating the ne- gro.

COY. POOLE CALLS
 SPECIAL SESSION
CHIEF EXECUTIVE OF MONTANA WILL ASSEMBLE LEGISLATURE TO PASS LAWS TO RELIEVE IN DUSTRIAL TROUBLE.

Helena. Mont, November 10.-In re- sponse to numerous petitions Governor Toole this afternoon called a special ses- sion of the legislature to meet on Decem- Der l at Helena, to pass laws relative to the industrial condition in Montana, caused by the shutting down of Amalga- mated company's properties, whereby 15,- 900 men were directly thrown out of work and 15,000 more affected.
 The object of the session Is to pass a law whereby mining cases may be taken from one court to another. when the judge in the initial court is shown to be prejudiced.
 Other legislation of like character has also been promised. A so-called flair trial bill of the character now proposed was passed by the last legislature, but was decided by the supreme court to be un- constitutional on technical grounds. Re- gently at Butte, Judge William Clancey, of the district court, gave decision in which he said that he might appoint a receiver at any time for the Boston and Montana company, one Of the largest constituent companies of the Amalgamated.
 The decision was made on the applica- ton of John McGinnis, prominent holder of stock in the properties controlled by F. Augustus Heinz of the Montana, Ore, purchasing company which has been at war with the amalgamated for years. Up on this announcement by Judge Clancey, President William Seallon of the Ana conda Copper Mining company and gen. eral manager of the Amalgamated, issued orders to shut down all the Amalgamated properties in Montana and elsewhere, de- claring that the company was unable to secure judicial fairness In the courts, could not continue in business
 The works of the Amaigamated com pany will resume tomorrow in various parts of the state.
 Probably more than 15.0O0 men will be be employed directly in the properties of the Amalgamated and that many more will be indirectly given employment in the way of furnishing supplies and the like.

Montgomery, November l0.-(Special.)- Roosevelts Alabama referees have de- clared war on the lily whites and all of them must go to the block, including Frank Simmons, marshal at Mobile, whose place Is to go to G. B. Deans, formerly a populist of Shelby county but now chief deputy collector of the port of Mo bile. Sixty or more Roosevelt loyalists, including a number of negroes, met the referees, J. O. Thompson, w. F. Al- drieh and Charles H. Scot here today. The gathering was more or less informal, but two or three formal meetings were held behind closed doors where ways and means to further the ambition of the President were discussed.
 From Mobile came P. D. Barker, post master; NJ. D. Wickersham, district at- torney; ". F. Tebbetts, collector of the port G. B. Deans, A. N. Johnson, editor of negro paper; J. T. Peterson. a ne- gro mail carrier, and J, w. Wilkinson. 2 negro doctor. Marshal Simmons was also here and in the caucus, but he was not received with enthusiasm.

Washington, November 10-(Special.)- )- Simultaneous with the reappointment by the President of the negro, w. D. Crum. for the Charleston, S. C.. collectorship to- day, Representative Crumpacker of In diana submitted his old resolution pro- vidng for the appointment of commit tee of thirteen members of the house. whose duty it shall be to examine into the election laws of the several southern states with the object in view of cutting down the south's representation.
 It would have been supposed that the President and MT. Crumpacker. in view of the republican defeats in Maryland and Kentucky, would have had enough of the negro issue, but the policy seems to be that further agitation of the ques- ton will stir up negroes in the doubtful states to go to the polls and cast their votes for the republican ticket
 Representative Crumpacker was frank

to say tonight that he did not expect action on his resolution. 'The resolu- ton is simply submitted to keep life in it. he remarked. There is no chance for the Crumpacker resolution at this or the regular session. Should the re- publicans win next year. however, every effort will be used to pass it.
 The nomination of the negro Crum was at once referred to the commerce com mittee of the senate, where 1t was con- sidered during the last congress. At that time the nomination was defeated in committee. but vote upon 1t was never had on the floor of the senate. The President is said to have been displeased at the attitude of the committee on this appointment and fully expects the pres ent session to secure Crum's confirma- ton.
 Both of the South Carolina senators, Tillman and Lattimer, will vigorously oppose Crum's confirmation, as will the be defeated. No conclusion was reach German

The Tennessee senator does not mince words Tn declar- ing it to be what might have been ex- pected from a man who conducts the Presidential office as if 1t were a yellow newspaper, whose only function is to supply some new sensation daily,

cREscEUS MADE FAILURE.
Couldn't Go Mile on Half-Mile Track
 Better Than 2:12H.

Kansas City, Mo. November 10-In what was heralded as his last public ap- pearance on the turf, Cresceus today failed in his effort to lower the world s trotting record of 2:OS for a mile on a half mile track, held by himself. The conditions were unfavorable for record tlme and, at the request of George Ket- cham, owner and driver of Cresceus. the judges announced before the trial against time was begun that the crowd must not expect to see the record broken.
 The track was a little cuppy and the wind was blowing a gale from the west, but the most discouraging conditions for fast time was the fact that Cresceus was suffering from a slight lameness due, it is said, to his recent experience in q wreck.
 The time by quarters was 3s, 1.os1z, :3SA and 2.12A.

MORGAN WILL BE OUSTED
 FROM CHAIRMAN'S SEAT

Washington, November 10.-(Special) J. The concensus of opinion at the republ- can caucus today was to remove Sem ator Morgan from the chairmanship of the canal committee. As the leading ex- ponent of canal matters the Alabama senator has held this position since 1896. As chairman he could have little more influence in shaping into legislation his views than he would have as simply member of the committee, hence his re- moval is simply an expression cf repub. lcan partisanship.
 To say the least. the action contem- plated is most ungracious. The sen ator, of course, still remains member of the committee and as such can oppose

 Bankruptcy.

Chicago, November 10.-Another large leaf tobacco house, that of crimp Bros, was forced into bankruptcy today. The firm has had a large trade in leaf tobac- co for ten years, and in its failure. like that of Sutter Bros, caused surprise among business men
 The concerns of Sutter Bros. and Grimm Bros. were immediately connected in bus mess dealings, and the failure of the former injured the credit of the latter to such an extent that it was deemed ad- Visable to turn the property over to the care of the United States district court so that all creditors might be treated alike. The liabilities of the firm are es- timated at s225,O00, and, the assets at $lO,W0 though the latter are said to be worth nominally more than the debts

Washington, November 10.--(Special.)- Representative George B. Mcclellan, the
 newly elected mayor of Greater New York, is not going to spend all of his time between now and his inauguration in receiving the congratulations of his friends. MT. Mcclellan is very much in- terested in the subject of Cuban reciproe- ity, and In the session winter before last took a prominent part in the house pro- ceedings which led to the passage of the reciprocity measure and the adoption of the amendment striking out the duty on refined sugar.

 The minority report submitted by MT. Mcclellan was heartily concurred in by a majority of the democrats It is un- derstood here that MT. Mcclellan may have his old place on the ways and means committee If he desires it. The time he would serve, however, is so short that it is probably immaterial to him whether he is appointed on the commit tee. At any rate he will take an active interest in the house proceedings and speak in favor of the passage of the bill.

 It developed that the old controversy between the house and senate over the right of the former to initiate all reve- nue legislation was the principal topic of the conference. The members of the house claimed that the present treaty provides that during the life of the con- vention duty on sugar shall not be altered either by treaty or convention. To con cede the position of the senate, they as- sert, would be a surrender of their con- stitutional powers. It was said that unless the contention of the house is admitted there will be the same diff culty presented as at the last session, with the probability that the measure will be defeated.
