Washington. Jan. 22.-(Speciai)--- The Senate Judiciary Committee hav- ing fixed January 27 for further hear ings on the Hundley nomination. the case having been referred back. as stated in The Advertiser dispatches that it would be by request of Sena- tors Bankhead and Johnston. 1t is ex- .pected that many prominent lawyers and others from the Northern District of Alabama will be present.
 ' From reports which reach Washing ton the Birmingham bar. which inau- gnrated the recent apheaval. will be especially well represented. It is also expected that well known attorneys from Annistoh, Sheffieid. Huntsville and other cities in the district, will be on hand. And, although no information has yet reached Washington to that effect. 1t Is taken for granted that Judge Hundley will be here to speak for himself and doubtless will have with him some of his chief packers.
 No time limit has been fixed upon the Judiciary Committee as to when the case shall be sent back. An effort, 1t Is understood, will be made to ac- complish that, hut the Senate refused.

CONGRESS
Summary of Houne.

Washington, D. C.. Jan. 22-Exactly as reported by committee. the naval program for the fiscal year. 1910, was today adopted by the House and the naval appropriation bill was passed.
 The opponents of navy increase feature of the bills found themselves in a hopeless minority. The only vital alteration made in the measure was the striking out of the provision restoring marines to naval vessels. The aggregate amount appropriated by the bill is $135, ,000. 900. As has been the case in the past. the increase in the naval estimate gave rise to heated debate in which the members were af- forded an opportunity to air their views on the Japanese question. The peace advocates were much in evidence In opposition to such increase, while the adherents of the proportion were alive at all times to every move made to cut down the number of vessels used.
 At 4:46 p. m. the House adjourned.

cosgres.men and the sAips

On the test votes In committee of the whole in the House today on the bat tleship proposition, six of the Alabama members supported the Naval Affairs Committee. They were Messrs. Under wood. Richardson, Taylor. Henin. Craig and Wiley. No roll call is taken in committee of the whole, the members merely passing between tellers who count the respective sides.
 Tbe Alabamians named first voted against the motion to strike out the section so that no ships should be ap- proprlated for this year. Then they voted against the motion to make the number only one, and finally supported the two ships proposition.
 Representative Hobson's proposition to make the number of ships four had not come up, for the reason that the captain has not offered 1t yet. He was called out of the city on Ssome. press ing matters and has not returned, al- though he. was expected back this nornine.

coMMoDAfIoN, HEAD-oN

UARRsBURG, Jan. g. - Selecting
the lesser Of the two evils as It wers.
and backing his train into a collision
with the engine Of a freight train on
the siding at WIlsonburg Thursday
morning, the engineer on No. IA. the
accommodation from Parkersburg. by
his presence OF mind, narrowly averted
what would in all probability have
been a terrible disaster.
As has been the custom. No. IL, on
Its arrival at Wilsonburg. backed onto
the side track in order to let No. 3,
the fast train going west, pass. but
the siding was partly occupied at the
time by a long freight train. and there
was not sufficient room to safely ac.
commodate both trains. No. 3 was i'm
mediately seen approaching at high
rate Of speed, and 1t was seen by the
engineer that If he did not get his
train out Of the way. the one approach
Ing would collide with 1t and himself
and majority Of the passengers and
crew would probably be killed.
Without the slightest hesitation he
backed his train into the freight en-.
gine, with the result that several pas
sengers were slightly injured. and the
freight engine, the rear coach and the
engine Of his train were somewhat
damaged,
In crashing into the freight the en-.
gine was still exposed to such an ex-
tent that 1t was struck by the passing
train.
The following are those injured in
the wreck
