The question of the exact location
of the property lines along the north
and the south sides of the block came
up, and it was suggested that the row
of trees on the north side might have
to come out, but Mr.. Gagon said,
well, we'll scrap you when 1t comes
to that. Those trees were set accord
ing to an old survey that was right
at that time, and If 1t has changed any
the board will refuse to sacrifice the
trees. They belong to the people, and
we propose to stand back Of the order

to be a candidate myself. | have

never under any circumstances accept

wise enough to look into the future

time since 1892, and that it has ex-
cellent chance to control congress in

In Fiery Language.
CANNON is cAusT1c
Said Clark Wanted to Create a Conn
mittee Of Fifteen Cars so He
Could Dominate the
House.

WASHINGTON, March 16.-Cannon.
and Champ Clark, leader of the min
ority, in the house, paid their respects
to each other at the White House to-
day. According to the speaker Clark
Is "would-be czar." Clark is of the
opinion Cannon is getting czarish.
The speaker and his opponent met at
the White House by chance. Cannon
came in at 10 o'clock and spent nearly
three quarters of an hour in Taft's
office. Clark came in later with other
members of the committee appointed
to notify the president that congress-
was in session Cannon was emerg-
ing from the Office lighting one of his
famous cigars when he said: How
did yesterdays proceedings strike you,
Mr.. Speaker"
He struck characteristic attitude
and began waving his terrible left"
and said:
''The amendments have improved
the rules. The House is virile be-
cause we can operate by will by the
majority. This talk about the speak
er being czar Is tommyrot. What
they wanted and tried to do was to
create a committee of fifteen czars,
dominated by Champ Clark and La.
Follette-and LaFollette is fake"
The speaker then turned and dashed
out of the building. Champ Clarp made
his exit from the presidents Office in
i a few minutes, and didn't look at all
happy. He was asked the same ques-
tion that he had addressed the speaker
and said:
II don't think the amendments i'm
proved the rules to any extent. It
shows thorough gang can be beaten
once in while"
Cannon says you wanted to be czar
with your committee of fifteen" Clark
was informed.
| He replied: I'm afraid Uncle Joes
| is getting pareisis."

With the Rules Fight Over conaress
is Ready to Give Its Atten-
ton to the Tariff
Measure.
THE BILL is PREPARED
Both Sides Are Claiming Victory in
the Rules Fight Monday
Fitzgerald is Branded
as Traitor.

/ WASHINGTON March 16.-With
the rules fight over for the present
congress is ready to tackle the tariff.
The ways and means committee this
morning put on the finishing touches
to the bill this morning and are ready
to submit it when Taft's special mes
sage is received which is expected
about noon.
Both sides in the rules fight claimed
the victory yesterday and ere still
claiming it today. The allies voted
down the old rules but the regulars
claim by compromise voted them up
again. Fitzgerald, who presented
the substitute to Clarks motion on
rules, was branded as traitor today,
charges being made that he entered a
compact with the Republican leaders.
Clark was bitter against Fitzgerald,
although he believes the allies ac-
lcomplished something. He said:
f"While the changes don't go as far as
II like, it is stepping stone to further
amendments which popular demand
flor the revision of rules will force.
In substance the amendments of the
rules proposed by Fitzgerald and
adopted are:
The establishment Of the unanimous
consent calender under which men,
lbers may call up bills for passage If
there is no objection. The minority
is given preference of moving to COM
unit, with or without instructions, any
measure when consideration OF meas
iure is included and previous question
ordered. Calender Wednesday set
aside for call committees. so that bills
which have been favorably reported by
! committees may be considered, fur
ther protected by requiring a two
! thirds instead of majority vote to
set it aside.
| Favoritism upon any measure by act
ion of the rules committee in special
/, cases prevented. With the exception
to these changes the rules under which
ithe house operated during the last
congress were adopted. Standing
/ committees continue to be appint-
led by. the speaker. Cannc says
the action of the Democratic
boilers was "a protest by conservative
Democrats against populism and kin
! dred things"
/ The speaker admits the amendments
are All improvement over the old rules,
respectfully as they relieve him
lof granting recognition to par
,ticular members and set aside
certain days for consideration
Iof the measures under unanimous
consent None of the amendments
can operate to retard consideration of
the tariff bill as there is no general
Legislation to be considered this ses-
sion. The Democrats ordered none
and must accept place on any com
Imittee without the approval Of the
minority leader. Clark.
