Special to Times-Repubhcan.
Washington, March 2.--As lowa'f
new members of the house go, the figh,
over amendment OF the house rules
may be determined.
It has been supposed Messrs. Ken
dali, Good and Woods, OF the repub-
licans. would all vote with the repub-
lican insurgents and democrats to take
the control Of COMMITTEES appointments
from the speaker. But the insurgents
have become much worried about The
Iowans in the last few days. Every ef-
fort has been made by the Cannon
people to line UP the new Iowans and
they have been handled in the usual
way-shown the error of insurgency
told they could hope tor nothing for
their districts. and that they would
blight their careers at the outset unless
they went with the crowd. The result
is serious uncertainty about how they
will go.
AT present one Iowa authority de-
clares positively that Woods, Kendall
and Good will go With the Cannon
forces; and that Pickett Is in the air.
Another and probably better Informed
one declares that Iowa will have nve
ins,,rgent votes in the new house. To
be cast by Pickett. Haugen, Good jam
ieson democrat and Hubbard, while
Woods is looked upon as likely to go
along with these Ave. Mr.. KendalPs p-
sition is worrying all the insurgents.
and some of his Iowa friends think he
is likely to go with the Cannon forces.
Iowa May Control.
The contest over the calendar We'd
nesday rule has shown that the house
is divided very closely, and that four
or five members, going either way. Will
likely control. Iowa may thus become
the pivot, and the fact Is just getting
to be generally understood that 1t Is
in doubt. Senator Cummins and Rep
resentatives Hubbard and Hepburn
have been doing what they can quietly
to convince the new members that they
should go with the insurgents and
favor OF sweeping reform.

that more bridges will be bought this
year than in 1908.
During past years Minneapolis con-
Germ called A. Y. Bayne & Co., has had
the contracts, with little competition.
This winter Mr.. Ausenhus has inter-
ested the representatives Of bona fide
manufacturers. and the resulting bids
are about $50 per 500 under those sub
