Washington, Dec. 4.-Both Houses
of Congress convened at noon today.
Practically every member of each
house was in his seat, and the CALLER
les were crowded with hundreds un-
able to gain admission. The expect
ed speech Of Representative LTftleton
Of New York, regarding the Steel
Trust question, was the sensational
incident, featuring the opening days
proceedings.
MIR. Littleton stirred the House with
q diatribe against those whom he al
legged had maliciously defeated him
because of his independent attitude
as member of the House Committee
of Inquiry into United States Steel
Corporation. He charged that Henry
T.. Martin. Secretary of the Antitrust
League. had circulated false accusa-
tions against him ard he accused Mar
tim of conspiracy with David Lamar,
a Bear" operator in Wall Street to
aid in the depression of steel stocks.
lie charged that William J. Bryan
had gone off half cooked" in the
memory of his comment on the steel
investigation. Most of Littleton'S
speech was devoted to the defense of
his position on the committee and to
complete denial of the accusations
that he was allied with trust inter
ests."
"The most important session
since the Civil War" is the
prediction made by many Dem
ocratic leaders for the first regu-
lar session of the SiXty-second Con
gress which opened today.
Stirring days ahead" are forecast
by Republican members, and on both
sides of the big party line members
in the House and Senate are drawn
up to fight out weightv problems of
legislation in a session that will lead
up to the Presidential campaign of
1912.
OF Importance as TO the bearing it
will have on the approaching ro'id-

republican side; raactionaries and

and of unusual significance because
Of the heavy legislative program, it
is at least certain that this will be
one of the liveliest sessions of Con
gress in many years.
With the gayels falling in the
House and Senate at noon, the tariff
and the trusts stood out as the most
important subjects for legislation
with a big fight assured in both
houses. Many other questions con-
fronting the Congress, all of them to

ty, they will still come in charge of
one of the Cummings land men.
1t is possible that still another par
ty will leave Chicago this month to
inspect the Newman lands. The rail
roads give special low rates on the
first and third Tuesdays of each
month to home-seekers, and it is pos
sible that a sufficiently large number
will wish to come down on the third
Tuesday to cause the Cummings &
Company to send man with them.

GADsKI is PLEASING.
Topeka Music lovers Delighted With
Her Concert Last Night.


In putting together the program for
Gadski was mindful of varying tastes.
These are people who put their artistic
trust only in the products of great
masters dead and gone, and for their
edification, Madame sang from Schu-
mann Schubert, Brahms, and Wagner,
It for those who believe in sending
flowers before the funeral announce

pleasing numbers, one of them BIRD
Raptures,' by her accompanist, Mr.. E.
Schneider. In THE Little Grey Dove, >
the scooing triu in the last line thit the
spot as the cook says, with the audi
ence, and in answer to the applause,
Madame repeated the song. "Unmind-
full of the Roses" also by Schneider,
was well received, and Gadski gener
ously signified that she considered all
the praise due to the composer and
pianist. Another of the modern songs,
'.Staendchen," by Strauss, was num-
Der calculated to display to advantage
the powers of the singer. The strength
and strangeness of Strauss work gives
the listener a new kind of thrill when
it is rendered with the skill of the real
artist.
Madame Gadsli showed in her seIec-
ton of. numbers a decided preference
for German music and German words,
WHICH Is lldIuIdl GlOuSus COl1Sld6fAllS
that no better music has been written,
and German is her native tongue. The
Brahms selection .'Mainacht'' for pure
melody and grace and charm, was adj
mirable. After the first group of
songs, Madame gave as an encore the

German literature and folklore, gets
at the soul of an imaginative poem

The real exhibition of Gadslxis pow
err came at the last of the program
when she sang from Wagner two of
the roles that have contributed largely
to her fame, "Elizabth's Prayer from
Tannhauser, and sLiebestod'' from
Tristan and Isolde To those who burn
their little incense sticks before the
shrine of Wagner, Tristan and Isolde
speaks the last word in musical art,
and it was in this last number that
Gadski displayed best the range and
quality of. her voice. The richness Of
her low notes, the flexibility of her ex-
ecution, and the modulations of her
tones, left nothing to be asked of her
performance
