HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES,.

Mr.. Wadsworth IN. W Immediately af-
ter the approval Of the journal Of the
House called up the agricultural appropria-
ton bill
An echo of the recent scandals growing
out of leaks affecting cotton reports In
the Agricultural Department was created
by Mr. Crumpacker Qnd.), who thought
that the appropriation for collecting agrl-
cultural statistics was entirely too large.
He believed that the forecasts OF cotton
crops made by the department promoted
and fostered gambling, and Instead of aid
ing the cotton grower 1t put the whole
subject into the stock market, and he ques-,
toned whether this kind of guessing
served any good.
Mr.. Wordsworth IN. " replied by saying
that cotton growers, manufacturers ana
ginners had been before the committee and
had testified to the efficiency of the re-
ports, which were of very great value
Mr. Scott Kan.) said that the accuracy
of the forecast was admitted on every
hand and was invaluable TO both growers
and manufacturers. He said that statis-
tics showed that the forecasts for year
were but IA per cent In error Inc report
of the census bureau just made public
showed the output of cotton last year as
10 $40 OC0 bales The statistical bureau or
the Agricultural Department In December
last estimated the output for the year as
10, 1853 600 bales. or difference OF a little
over 3 per cent.
Mr.. Bartlett (Ga) called attention to the
wonderful effect the export of the cotton
crop of the south had on producing the
general prosperity of the entire country
and showed from statistics that while the
United States had exported in 1905 over
$4,000. 600 more than had been imported
of this sum the cotton of the south amount
ed to $3.50. 100000. From which he made
the deduction that the general prosperity
of the country was due more largely to
the cotton crop than to any other commod-
ity.
He showed that the value of the cot
ton crop OF the south for the past five
years exceeded by nearly S4D0,0oO.00o the
entire production of gold and silver In the
world during that time
Iar Perkins IN. " made point of or
der against the paragraph carrying an ap-
Precipitation to enable the Secretary OF
Agriculture to investigate and report upon
the nutritive value of the various articles
and commodities used for human food.

MAY DEMANDAQU0RUM
MINORITY LEADER LIKELY TO
CHANGE TACTICS.

Representative John Sharp Williams. the
leader of the minority of the House of Rep
resentatives, who is conducting moderate
filIbuster In that body to further a speedy
report on the statehood bill. Is not satisfied
with the results he Is producing. He an
nounced some time ago that he would there
after object to all Unanimous consent
legislation until report was received from
the statehood conferences He has carried
out this program. using his judgment In
waving objection when the legislation pro-
posed seemed to be imperative. The report
from the conference committee. however.
has not been made. and there is no indica-
ton that 1t is any nearer now than when
he began his vigil against unanimous con-
sent measures.
In discussing the matter today he declared
that he would endeavor Ito put another reef
in the legislative sails" and demand that
a quorum of the House shall be present at
all times when business is transacted. This.
he says. seems to be the next step neces
sary. and although he has not fully made Up
his mind to take 1t he is now of the belief
that there is nothing else to do.
With such requirement as this hang ng
constantly over the head of legislation
progress would undoubtedly be slower.
Many members do not like to sit continu-
into the cloak rooms and take advantage
of time spent on routine matters for work
in their committee rooms.
When the point is made to the presiding
officer that no quorum 10 present II Is his
duty first to count the members In the
chamber. a quorum of the present house
has been declared to be 191 members. II
less than that number are counted the or
der must be made to lock all of the doors
leading from the chamber except one. the
clerk is directed to call the roll. and the
sergeant-at-arms Is sent out after absen-
tees. This requires anywhere from half an
hour to three times that length of time.
What the Conferees Say.
The House conferees on the statehood bill
have made they say. every effort in their
power to hasten the statehood contest be-
tween the two houses. Propositions have
been made to the Senate conferees to hold
morning afternoon and evening meetings.
These suggestions have not been readily
received, and SO far not more than three
meetings a week have been held, and FREE
quently but one or two times week have
the conferees come together.
The main question of difference has not
been reached in their consideration-that of
admitting or rejecting Arizona and New
Mexico. All of the time has been spent on
minor amendments in the bill.
