Washington, Jan. 22.--When republi- can leaders in congress are asking if there is likely to be an extra session of congress because of the congested condition of the calendars in both branches they invariably answer in the negative. They insist, in spite of the extra session gossip, that the present short session is not damned more than was the short session two years ago, So far as appropriation bills are col- cerned. Comparison of the two ses- sions proves the truth of the leaders claims.
 Already the house has passed the Indian, rivers and harbors, pensions legislative urgent deficiency and army appropriation bills and is nearly years ago at this time the house had passed only the pensions, legislative, District of Columbia, naval bills. It is true that the senate thus far has passed only the urgent deficiency bill but two years ago at the same time only the legislative bill had been passed.
 What Has Been Done Can Be Done
 Again.
 Senate leaders are not disturbed by the situation. Two years ago thirteen big appropriation bills were passed in the last four weeks of the session and the republican leaders say what has been done can be done again.
 Some senators believe that there has been no particular effort made to prevent congestion and that approptla- tion bills have been delayed to Kill off general legislation. It would sur- prise no one now if mem bers opposed to votes on the Lorimer case, the resolution providing for the eIecrion of senators by direct vote Of the people. A tariff commission bill and other con- troversial matters, should be victor fous in their efforts. The ship sub sidy bill is being used as 8 buffer and there are several treats matters that

RELATION OF FREIGHT RATES ~ TO EMPLOYEs' WAGES
Roads Must Get Higher Rates or
 Wages Must Be Cut.

Worcester. Mass, Jan. 22-Unless the railroads of the country charge higher rates for carrying freight. the employees wages will have to be cut, according to arguments put forth by speakers at Q meeting of the New England members of the American Railroad Employes and Investors as- sociation held here today. The subject under discussion was '"The relation of freight rates to employees wages.
 For 20 years" saidfP. H. Morris sey, president or the association, ''the changes in class rates have been very slight, while the value of almost every commodity has increased. The rail- roads have found it necessary again and again to increase wages Now they are making a moderate advance in some rates, but the advance is so small in comparison with the value of the commodities as to be almost i'm possible of computation by the ultI- mate consumer. If the railroads are not allowed to raise their freight rates it cannot but be felt In other ways.'
 Timothy E. Byrnes, vice president of the New York. New Haven & Hart- ford railroad, declared that rates must be raised if present wages are to con- tinue to be paid.
 Other speakers were Peter OHearn of Stamford Conn, secretary of the joint committeee of the Brotherhood of Railroad Trainmen, the Brotherhood of Locomotive Engineers and the Or der of Railway Conductors; and P. J. Coyle. president of the Brotherhood of Railroad Station Employees.
