at the Capitol. After Congress opens the wires are buEzing here night and day. Congressmen are conversing con- tinuaIly. not only with one another but with their Iieutenants at home and with their constituents. The time the Congressman formerly spent in writing letters Is now spent otherwise, for he finds the telephone the readiest means of communication not only for short
 but for long distances. Senator Quay
 was the first party leader to make a practice of telephoning from this city to
 his lieutenants at home. and both when at the Capitol and when st his resi- dence in K Street he managed to keep
 In constant touch by means of the tele- phone with his friends and his sup
 porters. It Is said that all his import ant instructions to his men gathered at
 the State House at Harrisburg were de-
 livered over the telephone.
 Senator Platt of New York was quick to follow the lead of his confrere from Pennsylvania, and from his room at the New Willard many an important com munication has gone forth to New York and Albany and Buffalo Toward the end of his life the late Senator Hanna, who was noted for the conservatisIp\ of his methods. became an ardent advo- cate of the telephone, and, in fact, con-
 ducted more business by long distance telephone than by any other means of communication.
 The prime advantage of the policy oe giving the Bell men control of the telephone business in Washington is l that every man busy with the affairs of State. from the President down to the youngest private secretary of any Con
 gressman. can readily get himself into communication with distant points. and nowhere else than in Washington arise more often cries necessitakinR the quickest possible establishment of coms munication to some city far away.

sionaI work. He did not wait, as for mer Presidents would have waited, to urge his views in a formal manner, by mail but he uttered them while the mood was upon him and the telephone enabled him to discuss the situation quite as effectively as if he and MT. Knox were standing face to face.
 It was the same, it will be remem- bered, during the memorable coal strike when the President frequently engaged in long distance conversations with the leaders of both sides. During the last national campaign the President and Secretary Cortelyou, who was then serving as Secretary of the Republican National Committed, conversed twice day for an hour or more between Wash ington and New York, Naturally what they had to say to each other in those critical days would have been valuable material for the campaign managers on the other side especially when the Re- publican leaders were striving to per suade the President not to reply to Judge Parker's charges regarding cam paign contributions; but after the pat tie was over MT. Cortelyou admitted that not once had he received any in- formation that would lead him to sus- pect that the privacy of the telephone had been violated.
 Aprooos of this important matter of privacy a Senator once remarked to a group of his associates who had been discussing the subject: T have found out by experience that the employees of the Bell system are just as honorable and can be trusted just as far as the telegraph operators, or the letter car riers and the other employees of the postofice. And as time Is valuable I prefer to use the telephone"
 The Congressman without telephone is an exception to the rule. One of these exceptions is Senator Knox him self. but even he makes frequent use of the telephone that stands on his desk

lines. Not long ago there was an i'm quiry into the relative merits of this system and a Government system in the Capital and 1t was the decision of those who conducted the inquiry that the re- suits obtained under the present condi- tions were better than those likely to be secured if the Government itself went into the business The White House, the Capitol and all the depart ments under control of the Cabinet are equipped with branch exchanges run ming into every sub division of the Government service, and simply by lift ing a receiver President Roosevelt can quickly communicate with any member of his Cabinet or any member of Con gress or, if he Is In the mood for an outing, can order his favorite saddle horse from the White House stables. There is a telephone and telegraph room in the White House, and there the President Is frequently engaged in con versation over the long distance wires. The central telephone station in this room is so arranged that the President can talk with any Government official in Washington without the intervention of the city central office.
 When the vessel on which the Presi- dent was going down the Mississippi after his visit to New Orleans. was run into and disabled, MT. Roosevelt, after he had been assured that the injuries were slight, went on deck and took command; and 1t required no one in this city who Is acquainted with his manner of doing business to learn that In a short time assistance was being summoned by telephone.
 To the stranger the large part of the telephone plays In politics may seem a little surprising. but the fact that the telephone possesses advantages all its own; combining promptness. celerity. and accuracy. appeals to the executive officers of the Government and to Con sressmen in a special manner. The telephone seems to fit the Presidents characteristic way-his way of doing things promptly and directly. It was over. the long distance wire between this city and Philadelphia. for instance, that he persuaded Senator Knox to leave the Cabinet and take up Congress

Washington, Dec. 16.--The strenu- ous life has been resumed, which Is an other way of saying that Congress IS again in session. Washington without Congress is like Hamlet without the Prince, or like a watch without main" spring. It simply does not go at all. The air here Is always filled with gos- sin. both social and political, but there is really nothing doing" until Con- Rress Is In session. Then everything else takes second place.
 Generally speaking, the excitement attending the December reopening of Congress- spreads; over several weeks. From the proprietors of the fashion able hotels patronized by the rich bach elor statesmen down to the proprietors of the modest boarding houses patron ized by the thrifty Congressmen- though the thriftiest of them, however, soon learn that it is hard to save money in Washington-eIl the public purveY- ors of the hospitality for which the capital is famous are busy for weeks refurnishing their houses, foregather- ing their help and in a dozen other ways preparing for the season" Then one by one are found returning the wealthy people who, though they take no. active interest ir politics, appear to derive much enjoyment from Washing ton life during the winter. Gradually, too. the tradesmon prepare to meet the heavy demands tat will soon be made mon their resources, and the men in the postal, telegraph and telephone services get ready for a long period of aIroost uninterrupted liveliness. In- JeeJ all the matters-social, industrial and aovernmental-involv in the in- coming of Congress are rather too nu- merous to mention
 Perhaps no branch of business, public or nrIvate, has more to do during the Sessions of Congress than the telephone. If Is generally supposed that the 'tele- phone service onso GonmS'tins nmS ,h the Capitol: Federal buildings is managed and con- rolled by the Government. But the fact is that 1t Is part of the wide spread Bell sytem.
