CONGRESS
Senate Summary.

A spirited speech by Senator Foraker of Ohio on the use of private detectives in investigating the Brownsville af- fair was the feature of interest in the Senate today.
 MT. Foraker laid aside his manu- script several times during his ad- dress to inject remarks that were pointediy aimed at the President, a1- though he refrained from the mention of Mir. Roosevelt's name. Evidently referring to the President, he declared that men who make charges and ih- situations win some time "be where they can be called to account"
 Mir. Lodge replied to Mir Foraker's remarks. declaring that the use of the $500, 100000 fund appropriated in 1899 as an emergency war fund for the President during the Spanish war, in the employment of detectives on the Brownsville case. was not in violation of the law.
 MT. Foraker endeavored to have a day fixed for voting on his bill, for the re-enlistment of the discharged sol- diers of the 25th regiment but Mir. Warren, chairman of the Committee on Military Affairs, insisted upon post iPonins sqebs &grespaen pntil future day. .-.1 .-.- $.

LIQUOR TRAFFIC REGULATION.

Des Moines. Iowa. Jan.. 12-In his message to the legislature. Governor Garst urges more effective regulation of the liquor traffic.
 T would recommend" he said, "that you memOrialize Congress for a charge in the revised statutes so that 1t would be definitely provided that the initia- tive for Issuing Federal license for the sale of intoxicating liquors would be with the local community directly interested. The Federal government should not legalize ehe liquor traffic in places where the people do not want 1t to be legalized or tolerated.
 With the thought that the saloons may be reduced in number and be under better control and surveillance. I recommend that the law be amended SO as to require the payment of an an- nual license fee of $1.200 divided so that one-third goes to the municipali- ty. one-third to the county and one- third to the state"
 Expansion of the power of the rail- road commission. reorganization Of the state highway commission were urged. The latter, Governor Garst, said should be empowered to deal more broadly with highway construc- tion, of waterways, forestry and the conservation of all natural resources.
