Little Prospect of Rate Legislation at
 Present Session.

Washington. Feb 20. - President Roosevelt, who for weeks has been hopeful that some definite action might be taken at the present session of Com gress on the railroad rate question. practically has rellnquished the idea of securing legislation on tile subject this winter. It is reasonably certain that he will not call an extraordinary ses- sion of congress to meet in the spring. but, unless he changes his mind, he will call congress together probably next October.
 Representatives Esch and Townsend, joint authors of the rate bill which passed the house, had a talk with the president to-day. They outlined the rate situation in congress as they have found it. They agreed with him that the prospect for the enactment of the rate legislation at this ession of con gress was remote, They indicated that, if no action is taken at this session, the subject will be considered thorough ly during the coming summer, with the idea of presenting measure at the next session which very likely would contain some additional features.
 As they left the White House, both Messrs. Esch and Townsend expressed the conviction that an extraordinary session would be called for next autumn to deal with the rate question.

SCENE IN HOUSE.
Mir. Baker DenOunees Roosevelt for
 Sending Condolences to Czar.


 Washington, Feb. 20.-The house to- day, after a seven-hour session, passed the naval appropriation bill, carrying a total of $ss,s14.S5s. The provision for two battleships, as reported by the com mittee on naval affairs, was retained.
 Several times during the debate the assassination of Grand Duke Sergius was referred to. the subject being brought up by MT. Baker, of New York, who condemned the action of President Roosevelt in sending message of con dolenee to Russia expressing the senti- ment that the government and Ameri- can people viewed the act with abhor- renee. The people, he declared, did view with abhorrence the massacre in St., Petersburg on January 2, but the president, he said, had not seen fit to send a message of coincidence on that occasion. . .-
 He was replied to by MT. Grosvenor. of Ohio, who took the ground that, re- gardless of the character of the duke or the question of the right or wrong of Russia's policy towards her subjects, the president in sending the message had done exactly what civilization rec ognized as his duty.
