W. Langley, who, as chief clerk Of the
Censnus Bureau, grew TO like Washington
so well that he resolved TO come to Con-
gress. The Hon Samuel NJ. Robertson,
after serving twenty years from LOuisi-
ana. WAS defeated at the primaries by a
man who, on the day after he had been
elect, killed a fellow-townsman, and IS
now languishing TO JAIL but hopes 10 get
out in time to attend the opening of the
Sixtieth Congress, one year hence.
GrOSvenOr Is One of Them.
There is another flock the members Of
which were MANNED in the contests for
nomination. Among them is Gen. Charles
H. Grosvenor. grim old warrior of many
military and political battles. who finally
lost his nomination. and whose enthu-
slasm for his successful rival was so
slight that the district came near return
ing a Democrat.
Southard of Toledo is another. He
was defeated for denomination, and the
district returned a Democrat. Judge
Palmer, Of Pennsylvania, who conducted
the impeachment proceedings against
Judge Swayne. OF Florida. failed to have
his nomination sustained by the courts,
diiu the uioAiltt TINS eFdl FitNtfN n D'i's'-
cTat Dale. a millionaire coal operator
after serving one term, went down to
defeat at the hands of a coal miner.
In addition TO these. there is a score
of others whose fine plumage was much
ruffied by the storm winds of November g..
The Hon Fred Lands. famed for his
bulging brow and epigrammatic speech,
was badly showed under.

The Hon. Abraham Lincoln Brick, Of
the Hoosier State. had a large falling
of i'm majority, and a change Of 200 votes
would have left him at home. The Hon.
George Washington Cromer. of the same
State. was voted out of his seat. The Hon
James Kennedy. of the old Mckinley dis
trict in Ohio, is thankful for the meager
majority Of a few hundred which ne re-
ceived this year in place of the l0.0o0 Of
two years ago. So also is the Hon. Daniel
Franklin Lafean, Of Pennsylvania. who
got "A million and then some more by max
ing caTameIs for matinee girls and others,
and even the Hon John Dalzell. of Pitts
burg, had some Of the stiffness taken out
Of his neck by a reduction of his 15,000
majority 10 less than 5000. The Hon
Charles McGavin, who came into office
two years ago on the Roosevelt wave with
majority Of 1900 against a brother Of
former Mayor Carter II. Harrison, is glad
OF the s. votes which he received this year
more than his Democratic rival. Stanley

The Interstate Commerce Commission
has decided to begin at once an inves-
tigation into the question Of car short
age throughout the United States. The
wheat situation in the Northwest Will

The commission is confronted with

Dakotas and Minnesota have filed the
elevators along the lines of the rail-
roads with their wheat and stacked the
rest in great bins, twenty or thirty feet
deep. and covering an acre or more Of
ground, while there is ample room for
all this wheat in the terminal elevators
