Located This Session.
Congressman BurIeigh Busy With
Maine Matters and Committees.

Washington. Dec. 6.-(SpeciaD.-
Names two senators and four repre-
sentatives in Congress are here, MAX
ing ready for a long and important
session. They are well aware that the
session is not likely to be fruitful in a
great amount of legislation but there
is to be vast amount of discussion
and also Il vast amount of committee
work in sitting bills and determining
what Congress shall eventually do. For
the long session, while it may enact but
little legislation, very often paves the
way for lot of legislation at the short
session of the year following.
The members of the delegation have
settled for the winter in much the same
quarters they have occupied for several
years. Representative and Mrs. Bur-
leigh, who have been living at the
Richmond hotel, have moved to q resi-
dence on Vermont avenue. just a short
distance from the resident occupied by
Speaker Cannon. Representative Little
field, as usual. is at the Hamilton hotel
on 14th street, where he has lived ever
since he came to Congress. In the same
hotel lives Senator Frye. who occupies

occupied those rooms so long that
there is never a thought of letting them
to anyone else during the winter and
at the hotel it is even regarded as a
special favor to allow guests to oc-
cupy those rooms during the sum-
mer.
Representative Allen is at the Po-
land an apartment house in WASH
ington, where he has long made his
home when not in Maine. Representa-
tive Powers is 'bunking' at the New

attempt to remove these to the sur

impossible to carry these bodies over

Washington, Dec. 6.-The Republican
National Committee which was called
to meet here to chose time and place

hour at the Shoreham hotel today. but
aside from the election of Acting Chair

other members who are interestinS
themselves to the utmost on behalf Of
the Lake city. They made material pro-

the Kansas City advocates, but most
of them do not show the same conf

fight between Chicago and Kansas City
was quite acute during the day and
there were charges of political interest
on both sides but these were denied.
Of the - members Of the rational
committee from 233 to - are said to be
pledged to Kansas City and an equal
number to Chicago. The rest Of the
committeeman are non-committal and
