 What a grand thing for the State of New York 1t would be-" remarked an administration official today. If Theo- dcre Roosevelt and Elihu Root could be sent to the United States Senate from New York after March f. 1909. This may seem rather fapefful idea now, out it Is not at all improbable.
 Tt Is now pretty well known that the President wants to become a Sem ator. I believe Hoot would be- content to transfer his 1abors from the State Department to the Capitol. He will hardly care to go back to the active practice of the law, and as United his interest in his law firm. with these two men in the Senate New York would have to yield the palm to no State In the matter of abiIity. bril- llancy and general skatesmanship of It's representatives. Root would repre- sent the legitimate interests of the corporations, and the President would typlfy the movement for the control of the powerful monopoIies."

 Several politicians were gosslpins on the White House steps today as Vice President Fairbanks drove up. After the tall Indfanian had shaken hands with every man in the crowd and had disappeared into the inner office, one of the politicians said:

Fairbanks ie industriously engaged fn sewing up the nomination. happen to know that he has res1rp pected, patched tip and thoroughly otl- ca 2 large part of the machine that nominated Mckinley in 1sse and 1900, and that today he stands q better chance of getting the nomination than all others put together

 If Speaker Cannon has his way, and he usually does'yin making up a leg- islative pro grafns the coming session cf Congress will be devoted t5 passing the usual supply and approximation bills, to the exclusion of everything else except minor legislative necessities. This winters session of Congress will have about sixty working days This barely allows time to put the annual budgets through the mill. Last win ter more than one hundred days were consumed in floor consideration of the appropriation measures.
 The Speaker arrived In Washington last night. and soon let it be known that he was not in favor of undertak- ing a large amount of work before the adjournment on. March 1. He has not moved from his old time opposition to the ship subsidy bill, and that meas ure stands no more chance of getting out of committee than 1t had last year. The Speakers attitude, if it prevails, will mean no active work towards open ing the question of tarif revision. Cur rency reforms may be discussed, but there Is little likelihood of any deiln-
 MT. Cannon will keep the number of items for discussion and consider ation down to the minimum.

On Thursday last we rceived q copy of The Norfolk Virginian Pilot dated February IS. of this year. As it was properly wrapped and addressed we have no reason to doubt that 1t was intended for The Advertiser. Now, we esDew that the V.-P had cut us off is exchange list and didn't know why It did so, but now 1t is plain. It rejuires nine months for a copy to reach Mont gomery. and we look for succeeding copies to come along daily. We don't know how long it will require for .. te catch up with the calendar. but t will have to hurry or its news and edi- tDrials will grew stale.

MAY STRIKE on CUSTOM HOUSE.
Complications In the Building Trades May
Force Stoppage OF Work.

Forcc StOppnSc vi VVTh.
Complications have arisen between such
OF the old unions as are not under the arbi-
tration agreement Of the Building Trades
Employers Association and the unions
and the new unieRs in the same trades,
y ;ich have involved d number Of buildings
already and may involve more. One of the
buildings drawn into the trouble yesterday
is the new Custom House, on which Their
are men employed belonging to both the
old and new unions.
All the delegates in the Associated Build
ing Trades, representing principally the
old unions, and the United Board Of Build
ing Trades, representing the unions under
the arbitration agreement, met yesterday
morning in Brevoort Hall and then went
to Contra ctor Robinson, who has the general
contract for the new Custom House, to
demand the discharge of members Of the
new unions who were employed and also
the discharge Of members Of the Brother
hood Of Painters, one Of the unions under
the arbitration agreement. The discharge
OF the members Of these unions was de-
manded because they had struck against
one Of the old unions.
Az the Custom House is an emergency
contract the rules of the arbitration agree
ment were suspended on that building and
IL WIS dITdUkcu Cildb llcllDcib " DOJu Olu
and new unions could work together on
the job, but this, it appears, did not pre-
vent a strike.
According to the delegates Mr.. Robinson
asked them il in case he made the dis
charges demanded they could supply him
with men. and they guaranteed TO do 90.
He told the delegates that he would consult
with his architect and let them know. The
delegates said that they will order out the
men in all the other trade to-day il the
MIR. Robinson Is an independent contractor
himself, but some Of the sub-contraotors are
members Of the Building Trades Employers
Association.
