WASHINGTON, Jan. 19.-The eau
Gus of Republican members of the
house tonight named the house men,
bers of the Ballinger-Pinchot investi-
cation committee, and incidentally re-
jected Mr.. Rainey of Illinois, one of
the two Democrats selected by the
Democratic caucus last Saturday
night as the minority representative
on the committee.
The six men selected include three
regular" Republicans-McCall of
Massachusetts, Olmstead of Pennsyl-
vania and DENLY Of Michigan; one
'insurgent," Madison of Kansas, and
two Democrats-James of Kentucky
and Lloyd of Missouri.
The caucus lasted three hours, and
while characterized by much acrimony
was more peaceful than most mem
bers had expected. Even at that
there was q bolt of six insurgents, led
by Cooper of Wisconsin, the other
boilers being Lenroot, Nelson and
Carey of Wisconsin and Davis and
Lindberg of Minnesota.
Taft's Views Expressed
In several speeches strong objections
to both James and Rainey were voiced,
the objectors claiming to express the
views of President Taft. There was
no objection to either of them person.
ally. Against Rainey was cited activ-
ity in stirring up trouble for the Re-
publican administration in Panama
canal matters.
After the vote had been taken NOM
mating the four Republicans, a sep
arate vote was ordered on the Demo-
cratic members of the committee. At
this juncture Mr.. Cooper declared that
he was authorized by number of his
colleagues to say that they were op-
posed to naming Democratic members
of a committee in a Republican eau

lican party to do So" declared Mr..
Cooper.
Cooper Causes Laughter
Mr.. Cooper constantly caused laugh
ter by repeated inadvertent allusion
to Ollie James as Jesse" James.
The strongest partisanship speech
was that of j. Sloat Fawcett of New
York, who adjured the Republicans to
name the whole committee without re-
gard to Democratic selections.
Speaker Cannon opposed any COM
promise.
you've only got two propositions.

ASSOCIATED Pressl


LONDON, Jan. 19.-All returns of to-
days elections that are likely to be re-
ceived tonight show that the Unionists
gained five seats and the Liberals one,
leaving the present position of the par
ties as follows:
Unlonists, 1923; Liberals, 119; Labor
ties, %; Nationalists, A
Thus far, therefore, the Unionists
have a net gain of 45 sets. They are
required to obtain net gain of at least
1853 to wipe out the Liberal majority in
the last parliament.
The Liberals continue to lose through
three -cornered fights, labor candidates
invariably receiving just enough sup
port to allow the Unionists to succeed.
Majority for Reform
Judging from returns received so far,
If the Liberal, Laborite and Nationalist
votes were grouped there would be
large majority for the reform OF the
house of lords. Many Unionists also
are In favor Of some change, and I'm
ionist leaders are finding strong cur
rent of feeling in the country In THIS
direction. They have repeatedly spok-
en- in favor of reform along the lines Oh
the report of the Rosebery committee
and in fact have promised to carry out
some such scheme, which would reduce
the number of hereditary peers.
It is almost impossible at the present
moment to gauge popular feeling on
home rule, for while Premier Asqulth
placed it in his platform, many LID
eral candidates have been compelled
to repudiate it. Practically all Union
ist candidates are tariff reformers,
hut some would hardly follow so far
as the Chamberlainites would lead. IL
is possible that the UnioniSt fiscal pol
lev would find some supporters among
the Irish.
Half of Results Announced
OF the elections for 81 members OF
the new parliament held today the re-
suit of less than half was announced
today, the others being in widely scat
tered districts where it takes time to
collect the ballot boxes. In London,
where four boroughs polled, two re-
mained to the Liberals and one to the
Iaborites, while the fourth went over
from the Liberals side to the Un1onlst.
In northern England the Liberals
generally hold the seats won in 1906.
This also is true of Scotland, but the
Midlands continue to go over to the
party of reform.
