Washington. May 1o.-In opposing
the appointment of the insular affairs
committee the Republican leaders to-
day indicated their intention Of adj
herring to the policy OF permitting no
legislation at the present session, but
that which they deem urgent or which
the President recommends It had
been the intention to confine the con-
sideration of the House to the tariff
bin. but it was found that a supple
mentary measure providing for a new
tariff for the Philippines would be nee
essary to conform to the changes which
would be brought about by the Payne
bill. The tangle over the census bill
at the last session also necessitated the
consideration of that measure during
the special session. The introduction
and consideration Of Porto Rican bill
viii not necessarily affect the program
of the leaders as 1t does not open up
any new channels to members who de-
sire to have other legislation consid-
cred at this time.
1t is believed that the HOUSE, will
pass the Porto Rican bill while wait
ing on the Senate's action on the tarifE
bill and senators say that they seq no
objection to its consideration by the
Senate after 1t disposes Of the tariff
There is no disposition in either body
to enter upon program Of general
legislation during the present extra
session.
