Washington, Dec 6.-Congress gave
respectful attention to President
Tafts message today. but there were
comparatively few members who were
willing to concede the probability OF
favorable action at the present ses-

stituted the senatorial committee to
inform the President that the senate
was prepared to receive recommends

afterward Mr.. Latta delivered the
message to the house
The reading of the document, which

most of the senators listened atten-

case in the house.
