LOSS kEENLY FELT.
Both Houses OF Congress Respect Memory
Of Senator EIkns.

QUIT 'ouses OF congress respect memory
OF Senator EIklns.
WASHINGTON, Jan. 5.-Both
houses Of CONGRESS adjourned early to-
day out of respect to the memory of
Senator Stephen b Elkius of West
Virginia, who died in his residence here
last night, after lingering illness
The senate was in session only SIX min.
utes, adjourning until Monday, The
house devoted a half hour to pressing
business and then adjourned until noon
tomorrow.
In the senate, proceedings were con-
fined entirely to the announcement of
the death of the West Virginian by his
colleague. Senator Scott, and to pro-
ceedings Incidental to the announce
ment,
Referring to Mr.. Elkins' brave fight
for his life. after a long illness, Sen
ator Scott said his course in this mat
ter had been characteristic of him; he
had always fought and contended man
fully for principles he believed to be
right. Then he added;
''To me his death is personal. The
country suffers a great loss and West
she could possibly have experienced. -
After n resolution expressing the
senate's "profound sorrow' had been
adopted, the following senator's were
appointed committee to accompany
the body to his late home at Elkins,
W. Va:
Messrs Scott. Hale, Frye, Aldrich,
Cullom Gallinger, Lodge, Bacon, Till
man, Keane, Foster, Stone, Crane, Car
ter, Smith of Maryland and Root.
On motion Of Nh Scott the senate
then adjourned as further mark Of
respect,
In the house announcement of Sen.
ator Elkius' death was made by Rep
resentative Gains of West Virginia.
A resolution was adopted authorizing
the speaker to appoint committee
to act with the committee from the
senate. This committee had not been
announced when the house at 1890
adjourned out of respect.
Senator Elkins was chairman of the
senate committee Oh Interstate com
merce and his removal will make
rather startling change in the personnel
Of that committee, which is charged
with passing on railroad legislation.
There Is little doubt that Senator Clapp
of Minnesota, now Mth on the commit
tee, will be chairman on the expiration
of the present congress in less than
two months.
Senator Clapp has been an insurgent
on railroad rate legislation in that he
has favored many suggestions for the
regulation of rates which the majority
of the committee regarded as ultra
radical.
The death of Senator Elkius leaves
vacancies also on the committees on
appropriations, commerce, printing and
rules.
