CALL ON TAFT TO
STOP INSURGENTS
Regulars" Ask President to
Interfere in House Fight
Against Cannon

WASHINGTON, Jan. 2S.-kepresenta-
tive Dwight of New York, republican
whip of the house; Representative Dali
zell Of Pennsylvania and Representative
Boutel1 of Illinois called at the White
House to see what assistance the presi-
dent would lend in stemming the tide
of insurgency which is said to threaten
the existence of the committee on rules.
The last cause for alarm on the part
of the regulars" was the Fowler reso-
luton, deposing the speaker as a mem
ber of the committee on rules and
Itrebling its membership.
The regulars want the presidents
help, but Taft is reluctant to become in
ivolved in the factional strife He made
it clear that his main purpose was to
obtain the enactment of certain legisla-
tion to which the republican party is
pledged and, of course, that he is will
ing to do what he can to harmonize
the elements in the party when the
point of action is reached upon any of
these measures.
Later today the president had a long
talk with Representative Hayes of Cali
fornia. commonly rated as an insurgent.
and also with Senator Penrose of
Pennsylvania. The purpose of the talk
with the senator was to get an estimate
of the chances of success of certain
administration measures.
Apparently prospects were reported
favorable for the postal savings bank
bill, the Alaskan bill, the bill validat-
ing the withdrawal of public lands for
conservation purposes and the bill to
enlarge the functions of the interstate
commerce commission.

LIBERAL COALITION
HAS BIG MAJORITY
Victory Is Claimed by Both Par
ties on Tariff Question in
British Elections

LONDON. Jan. 2S.-The position of
the parties tonight is as follows:
Unionists 264 4LabOrites ..-.. 40
Liberals .... 263 NatiOnalists 49,. -
Now that the electoral struggle is on
the point Of closing, the curious ehect
is seen of both conflicting parties claim
ing victory and both basing their
claim. with plausible arguments,
broadly speaking, on the question OF
free trade against protection.
1t can not be said that the elections
have decided anything, and it is diff
cult TO Judge whether the country, as
whole, is tending one way or the
other.
According to contentious of liberals,
industrial communities have decided to
adhere to free trade and all that re-
mains for them to do is to complete the
conversion of the agricultural popula-
tion.
According to conservatives. the edu-
cation of the people is proceeding at
great pace, and ii is only a question
of time until the Chamberlain party
will be triumphant.
The Spectator contends that had tariff
reformers abandoned all idea of tax
ing food and confined their policy to
the taxation of manufactured imports,
the liberals would have been over
thrown.
1t seems generally agreed that, un-
less the nationalists offer serious op-
position, Chancellor Lloyd Georges
budget. as it left the last house of
commons. will be sent back TO the
lords. who this time will accept it..
Any notifications of Its provisions Will
be left for the next budget.
