APPEAL TO PARTY SPIRIT.
Regulars In Senate Strive to Bring
insurgents Into Line.

Washington, May Reconsideration
of the administration railroad bill was
resumed in the house today, but vot-
ing ON the amendments to the bill in
the senate has been suspended pending
an effort by the regulars to regain con-
troll of the situation and preserve the
party organization. No further test of
strength on the measure will be risked
i'll the senate before next Monday. BY
that time President Taft will have re-
turned to Washington to add his eff
forts to the heroic attempts being
made now by the senate conservatives
to bring some of their more radical
brethren in behind the Taft program
of legislation. The president will be in
Washington tomorrow.
The administration supporters are no
longer appealing for votes on the mer-
its of the Taft railway bill, but have
turned to the probably more effective
appeal of party eXpediency. They Were
labOring in the senate lobbies and COM
mittee rooms with the near insurgents
trying to make them see that failure
to enact the Taft legislation at this
session will mean certain party defeat
in the fall, with farreaching effects
upon Republican campaigns of the
more distant future.
Evidences were not lacking that this
tack by the regulars was yielding some
results. Insurgents in both the house
and senate have been considerably so
bered in the last few weeks by Demo
cratic successes, and it is understood
that a serious question has arisen
among the insurgents themselves as to
the length that they should 90 i'm OPP
posing the Taft program of legislation.
As usual, Senator La Toilette OF Wis
consin is the most radical in his views
on the policy to be pursued. He OBJ
jects to accepting any reasonable com
promise. Other insurgents are willing
to accept reasonable concessions from
the Republican organization. A long
conference of the insurgents was held,
and il is understood that there were
some sharp clashes Senator Cummins
is one of the insurgents who believe In
accepting reasonable concessions and
enacting as good bill as possible.
The administration senators said
that as the result of their days labor
they had forty-fOur senators pledged
to stand by the president on the bill,
with the exception Of the long and
short haul amendments. If this is true
It will require only two Democratic
votes to give the regulars control of
the situation. This statement, how
ever is derided by the insurgents, who
contend that their strength is unbro-
/ ken.
