INSURGENTS ARE AGAIN BUSY
BY ALFRED J. srorER.

Washington, Oct. 10.-(Special.)- Not many congressman are here at present, but those conversed with dur ing the past week seem to think there will be lively times when the nation al legislature assemblies in December.
 While Republicans are not disposed to say much for publication, quite a number have admitted privately that the fight on the House organization ts bound to be re-opened.
 1t Is not pleasant thing for them to reflect over, but somehow they cannot dodge the belief that Ance Represents tive Herbert Parsons, of New York city, told the other day about that deal up In his state. it Is bound to add to tn c bitterness between the regulars and tho insurgents in the body presided over by Speaker Cannon. even though the latter and his close friends have tried to belittle the statement made by the chairman of the New York county Republican committed.
 The impression Is growing stronger here and elsewhere that the ranks of the Republican insurgents will be gwelled. Parsons did not belong to the band of "kickers" during the extra ses- sion last spring. But 1t Is reasonably certain now that when the next rumpus Is started he will be found doing what he can to weaken the power and in fiuence Of old Uncle Joe" and the oth = er organization leaders.
 Fowler Digs Up Hatchet.
 Representative Fowler, of New Jer- sey. also has his war paint on. and the claim is made that on account of his treatment in being denied the chair manship of the banking and currency committed. to which under the prac- tices that have prevailed he was fair ly entitled to a few of his friends at least In the House will be disposed to join in 1he next movement that IS started
 If the fight Is re-opened in earnest, as the indications at this writing seem to point the regular Republica organ Izatfon will again have to rely upon House Democrats who are either wear ing he collar of Tammany and have their instructions, as was hinted at long before Parsons made his charges. and others who are getting high tariff notions like Boussard and Estopinal. of Louisiana, Clark, of Florida. Moon. of Tennessee, and others who pulled from their own leader last session and gave Uncle Joe" and his followers the requisite of votes to retain their foot- ing.
 The more the thing is discussed the more apparent it becomes that the high protective tariff crowd Is straining avery nerve to keep in control of legis- lation at Washington the "standpat" forces. Comments now being heard n9e to the effect that the Tammany Bellows and those from the South are on ticklish ground, and the prediction is made here that some smoking out" will be done if it is proven that the charges of Parsons are true. He and his friends have insisted they can sub sfanfiate everything in due time. Well informed people assert that New York city and Brooklyn are not in favor of the high tartn policy, and If it appears that the Tammany and Brooklyn mem bers are standing by Cannon and his crowd to help continue the rates of the Payne bill when there Is so much dis satisfaction with the new law some changes are likely to be made in con- gressional districts in the big city.
