IOWA CONGRESSMAN PROPOSES
RADICAL CHANGES IN HOUSE
RULES.
WOULD TAKE FROM SPEAKER
ALL COMMITTEE APPOINTMENTS
Would Mako Presiding Officer Of House
a Mere Figurehead-Attitund Of In
sursent Depends on Developments Of
Next Few Days-onIy a Beginning
Made.
Especial Correspondence

Washington, March 24-That the
changes in the house rules effected last
week are but the beginning of the pro-
cess of making the rules more liberal
is the opinion freely expressed among
the insurgents.
fore the end of this session or whether
they are made at the beginning of the
next congress, will largely depend on
the developments of the next few days.
If the regulars proceed to ride rough
shod over the insurgents in the selec-
ton of the rules committee, it is likely
that further changes in the rules will
be attempted in the near future.
Representative Haugen, of Iowa, one
of the staunchest of the insurgents,
who has fought vigorously against
Cannonism for many months and has
not wavered, has prepared resolu-
ton for a change in the rules which he
will present to the house soon. That is,
he will present it If there is not dis
tinct disposition shown to make con-
cessions to the insurgents.
Proposed a Departure.
Mr.. Haugen has talked over his res
olution with a number of the insur-
gents and regulars. It provides for a
committee Of fifteen, to be committee
on committees. He proposes 1t shall
have power to appoint the committees
of the house, the power which the
speaker now has. Mr.. Haugen would
have this committee of fifteen selected
geogra phically, so that every section
would be represented on 1t. To a large
extent, it would take over power now
possessed by the speaker. The COM
mittee of fifteen would be elected by
the house itself and would be repre-
sentative. Mr.. Haugen is inclined to
provide in his resolution to change the
rules that the committee of fifteen
have jurisdiction over appropriation
bills and conference reports, with
power to appoint sub-commit-
tees to consider them or refer them to
standing committees. This committee,
it clothed with the powers proposed by
Mr.. Haugen would be by all odds the
most powerful committee in the house.
But it would be absolutely Independent
of the speaker Mr.. Haugen's idea is
to have the committee on committees
amenable to the house and thus to have
every committee named by committee
on committees amenable to the house.
He may not press the matter of having

PROVING SEED CORN is BAD.
Special Trip over Burlington Road te
Urge Farmers to Get Good Seed.

Special Trip Over Burlington Road to
Urge Farmers to Get Good Seed.
Special to Times Republican.
Creston, March 24.-That two-thirds
of the seed corn intended for use in
southern Iowa this spring is absolutely
worthless and win not terminate is the
startling discovery made by the Ames
experts on the Holden seed corn special
which is operating over the Burling-
ton this week. The test made at Glen
wood showed only IS per cent of the
corn with perfect fertility. At Malvern
and Bedford the best showing of doz-
Ell towns was made. half the kernels
terminating properly. At Villisca less
than one kernel in ten was perfect. At
Corning the showing was still worse.
At Creston one kernel in four was
good, While about the same proportion
held at LenoN.
Unless the farmers awake to the sit
uation the crop of corn in southern
Iowa will be but little more than half
what it should be. 1t is to rouse the
farmers that the Burlington is running
the Holden seed corn special this week,
the farmers being urged to make germ
ination boxes and test their corn.

BATTLE ON A TRAIN.
Insane Man Kills Two and Is Himself
Finally Shot.

wilmington, Del, March 24-An ex-
citing battle in which three men were
killed occurred on Baltimore & Ohio
railroad train late yesterday afternoon.
The fight began at Newark, Del. and
ended at this city. Several persons
were wounded in the deadly fray which
occurred at the station here following
the arrival of the train.
The dead are: O. E. Wellman. aged
40. Philadelphia, conductor of the
train; Samuel Williams, colored por-
ter; j. H. Bethea, aged 40, Dillon, S. c.
The tragedy was the result of an
alteration between Bethea, who was
a passenger, and Williams, porter in
Pullman parlor car.
Bethea, apparently intoxicated, shot
the porter thru the heart. killing him.
When Conductor Wel1man saw the
porter fall, he ran to the scene to
demonstrate with the passenger, who
still held a SIN oking revolver in his
hand and Bethea fired a second shot
into the colored mans body. Then,
without a word, he shot Wellman thru
the heart. When Bethea fired, the
conductor threw up his right arm to
protect himself. The bullet struck his
arm and continuing. ploughed thru the
body and lodged in the heart. The muir
derer barricaded himself in the toilet
room of the Pullman car and threaten
ed 10 Kill Kill ttI1iz first person approaching.
Meanwhile the train reached Whining
ton.
The police called upon Bethea to
surrender AS an answer, he opened
the door of the toilet room and fired
at the police and the crowd from an
automatic revolver Bethea is be-
lieved to have had a hundred rounds
of ammunition, for he succeeded in
holding the posse at bay and also held
UP the train from SIT until 6:35.
Several policemen had armed them
selves with shotguns and just as
Bethea fired the last shot POLICE Cap
tain Evans fired load of shot into his
face Notwithstanding the injury he
kept blazing away. Patrolman Bough-
man opened fire with a pistol and
struck Bethea in the right arm. The
desperate tried to fire again but Ser
geant Kelleher opened fire and also
managed to spring upon Bethea. When
the police took hold Of him he fell dead
in the arms of patrolman. Some pas
sengers believed the desperate was in
same, and others thought he had been
drinking.

ence reports but he says unless the
house does this, the speaker will domi-
nate legislation to q considerable ex-
tent the rest Of the present congress.
because of having made up the COM
mitteeS.
Only a Beginning.
Mr.. Haugen says what has been done
is merely the beginning. The fight must
go on until the speaker of the house
is without power to dictate the course
of legislation or raise up and put down
members. Mr.. Haugen feels and so do
many other members insurgents and
democrats, that the speaker will have
this power so long as he can select the
committees.
Instances in which committees have
been shaped by the speaker so as TO
expediate ,or retard legislation are not
hard to find. The house committee on
merchant marine as made up last sum-
mer by the speaker is friendly to
subsidy legislation. The foes Of sub
sidy have been weeded out of the mer-
chant marine committee, that is, out
of the republican side of it, with one
single exception. The speaker is ia
vorabre to subsidy legislation. The
house postoffices committee as made
up is not calculated to help along
postal savings bank legislation. II any
such legislation comes out of it 1t Will
be because the republican COMPRESSION
al leaders assert this is necessary for
political reasons and because of the ef-
forts Of the president to have a postal
bill passed.
Only a Presiding Officer?
Once the speaker had no power over
committees. and was off the rules COM
mittee, he would be mere presiding
officer of the house. something which,
undoubtedly the constitution contem-
plated.
One of the things now settled by the
practice of the house, If precedents
govern, is that a resolution for a
change in the rules is Of the highest
constitutional privilege and thus it can
be presented and consideration de-
manded of it at any time. Changes in
the rules in the past have been accom-
plished with extreme difficulty. One
of the best features of the recent revolt
is that in the future revision of the rules
is not likely to be so difficult as 1t has
been.

STEADY OPENING OF MARKET
DEVELOPED INTO 10 CENT
DECLINE.
ACTIVE STEER DEMAND
BROUGHT STRENGTH IN CATTLE
Sheep and Lambs Make New Records
Owing to Light suppIy-Prime
Heavy WooIed Sheep Reach Top Of
$e.3o-sheep Market Generally 10
Cents Higher.

Chicago, March 24.-After a steady
lily lower until the decline reached 10
cents. While the early top was s11.00,
the bulk of the hogs went within a
range of $1070@ 1885.
1t is very evident that at the present
high prices, not many hogs are need
ed to go around. Eastern demand
shows a decided disposition to tighten
up. There were about 10000 at the
five principal western markets yester-
day, against $4,000 year ago and the
three-day run at these points is ap-
proximately $4,000 against 17S,OO0 last
week and $4,000 year ago. March
receipts here to date are about 264,OOO
less than last year while shipments
have fallen off 124000
Cattle.
Cattle We're strong on steers which
were active in demand The top was
$S.7o.
The mid-week cattle run was ex-
pected to be quite light, but moder-
ate volume showed up, early estimate
of 10000 being about correct. The
country hasn't as yet marketed all it's
steers, even tho high prices prove a
strong inducement for the feeders to
move the supply.
Sheep.
Sheep and lambs made new records
tho the general market for lambs was
lawer. Prime heavy wooded sheep made
a new price of $3.50 and clipped reach
ed $780, Prime Colorado Mexican wool
lambs brought $3.50. Sheep were in
light supply and generally 10 cents
higher
last week, is light nevertheless, and a
similar condition exists everywhere.
March receipts are going to be
around $4,000 less than year ago and
the sheep end of the run will show an
shortage, in fact only
a handful of native muttons is show
ing up daily and killers are having
trouble in securing even little heavy
mutton. Bulk of supply is running to
shorn lambs and the tendency is to in
crease the proportion of shorn stuff
daily.
This is as we'll as warm weather
always earns popularity for clipped
stuff.
Wooded lambs are encountering the
same discrimination as Tuesday, but
killers went to fat shorn stuff. Ten
dollars sales are suggestive of what
wool is worth. Heretofore, short
growth was not considered worth any
thing and killers paid no more for that
kind than fresh shorn stuff. Under new
conditions even nickers worth OF
wool counts.
