ELDER STATESMEN

tees Safe in Their Hands.
NINE MEN OF MUCH POWER

Minor Positions Assigned Them
By the Powers.
NINE MEN OF MUCH POWER

In connection With the announcement
OF the Senate comn.:ttees Monday, some
of the commentators of Senatorial cour-
tesy and precedence have been figuring
out some interesting things about who
runs the country.
The tendency of a small group OF the
elder statesmen to reserve to them
selves the posts of power is better illus
trated in the makeup Of the commit
tees than anywhere else An analysis
OF the great and dominating commit
tees of the upper house shows that nine
men practically control that body. by
having control or if not control, then a
powerful representation. on the Repub-
lican side of the committees that really
run the Senate
OF these nine men, one is President
pro tenn Frye. The other eight are
Senators Hale. Cullom ElSins. Platt,
Spooner, Foraker, Aldrich. and Allison.
The Big Committees.
The great snd powerful committees of
the Senate are Appropriations. Finance.
Judiciary. Foreign Relations. and Com
merce. Military Affairs comes at the
tcp. perhaps. OF the second group; some
would place it in the first group.
An examination of the committee list
committees are almost controlled by the
eight men named. Thus. on Appropria-
tions-and the Senate Appropriations
Committee really dispenses the billion
and n half that Uncle Sam spends an
nually on his establishment-Allison.
Hale, Cullom and Elkins constitute half
the Republican membership, Allison be
ing chairman.
On the Committee on Commerce are
Frye and Elkins. the former as chair
man.
On the Committee on Finance, perhaps
the most potent Of all, in the matter of
shaping legislation. are Aldrich, Allison
Platt and Spooner-half OF the 2epubIl-
can membership, with Aldrich as chair
man.
Foreign Relations shows this same
group of men in control of half the Re
publican positions. Cullom, Frye, For
aker and SpoOner are all on this COM
membership. and Cullom being its head
Interstate Commerce shows like sit
uation- Elkins is chairman, and out of
the group of nine great men Cullom, Aid
rich and Foraker also have seats at the
committee table-again constituting.
within this group. half the places credit
ed to the majority party.
The Committee on Printing is one of
the most useful from the point of view
OF controlling patronage The Repub-
Hcans OF this body are Platt and Ell
kins. German is the sole Democrat.
Rules includes Spooner, Aldrich and
Elkins in its Republican membership of
four. with Spooner as chairman.
''Of course" said a Senator of COM
paratively short service. who was dis
cussing the situation. est works these
gentlemen pretty hard and there are
some OF us who feel able to take some
of the burdens off their shoulders: but
they go right ahead. sacrificing them
selves for the good of the country and
the sake of controlling the whole ma
chine It's an interesting study this

turning on the light Bently dropped

Haincs, a ledger, holding Bentlys
head. He left, saying he was going for
q doctor, but has not been seen since.
Mrs. Douglass finally summoned the

A THIEF FOR PLEASURE.
Man Who Entered Many New YOrh
Houses Confesses and Says He
Really Enjoyed the Diversion.

New York, Feb. 6.-Christopher
Smyth, or "Sanrock." who Is locked up
at police headquarters charged with be-
ing the perpetrator of many startling
robberies in private residences within
the past few weeks, has made a con-
fession to Acting inspector O'Brien, OF
the detective bureau. Smyth declared
that he had not worked for plumber
but merely for the enjoyment he got
out of the excitement to the robberies.
He confessed that he had been inter-
ested in the exploit of western bandits
and that he had tried to emulate their
example. The character Of "raffies,
he declared, had also given him ideas
and he had attempted to follow out
this example. He voiced that 1t would
have been the easiest thing in the
world for the police to have captured
him on various occasions but that
there had been no attempt made to
follow him after he had left the houses
he entered except in one instance.
