Call at White House.

Quite number of the lame ducks" of

White House yesterday/to bid farewell

Senator Dick, of Ohio; Representatives

There was a wrangle over the Stanley
amendment adopted by the House, Wnich
denied IN the steel trust the right to
compete for armament or armor OF bat

vania. opposed the entire amendment. de-
claring that it was the work OF some
House humorist" who acted In spiri'

Senator Owen suggested tnat tnat par,
of the amerAraent which declares that
no nurehase Of arrnor or armament shall
be made at a price in excess OF l0s
per cent above the actual cost OF manu-
facture'' should be stricken out He said
that the United States government ought
not to be permitted TO go on record IN

the objection, declaring that the price
of armor has been cut in half during
recent years
II was agreed that the 100 per cent

WILL CALL SESSION
FOR EARLY DATE
President Wants Prompt Ac-
tiOn by Congress.

It is expected that the proclamation
convening Congress in extraordinary ses-
sion will be issued from The White House
soon after the adjournment of Congress
to-day.
Representatives Clark and Underwood
went to the White House yesterday to in
quire as TO the situation. In previous
conference With the President they had
understood that he would not object to
fixing April 4 as the time for assembling
of the new Congress. Although April 4
was not definitely fixed, they wanted to
know what to expect.
They found the President very much
inclined to calling Congress together not
later than March 15
The President told the Democratic
leaders that nearly all the Republicans
desired an early session, the pressure
from the Senate being strong. The
President was informed that the strain
during the hot summer months was so
great that everybody wished to get the
work over, so as to get away from here
before July.
Some of the PresidentS advisers
thought that il would be best if he fixed
the date for March 6, two days after the
adjournment to-day.
Messrs. Clark and Underwood protested
against any date earlier than April l.
They pointed out that they proposed to
organize the entire machinery of the
House and that it would be impossible
for them to do this until much time
had been given to selecting committees.
They asserted that nothing would be
gained in the way of time, as the House
would simply be adjourned from day to
day until the machinery was ready
The President and the Democratic
leaders parted, with the President still
thinking Of March Is. or even an earlier
date. On leaving the executive Offices
the two Democrats were not particularly
jubilant-

SUNDRY CIVIL BILL
IN CONFERENCE
No Agreement Reached at
3 O'Clock This Morning.

The sundry civil bill, which passed the
Senate yesterday, was still in conference
at o'clock this morning. All the Dis
trict items placed in the bill by the SEN
ate committee were passed by the Senate.
There was practically no opposition to
the Panama Canal fortification approS
priation. Senator Burton, of Ohio, moved
to strike il from the bin. but the motion
was overwhelmingly voted down. Sena-
tor Burton alone voting for it
The provision in the bin appropriat.ng
$4,000 for the present tariff board for
the next two fiscal years aroused sharp
opposition from the Democrats. and Sem
ator Culberson finally succeeded in
amending the bill to make the appropria-
ton 10000 instead OF 100000. and limiting
1t to one fiscal year. This amendment
win afford the Democrats an opportunity
after the next fiscal year of leaving the
tariff board stranded without any money.

DR.. E. L. SCHARF
FLAYED IN HOUSE
Denounced as a Fraud" by
Representative Johnson.

D. Z. l. scharf. of this city, former
president of the Anti-Food Trust League,
organized a couple of years ago
with the idea of bringing the beef trust
to terms through a national boycott OF
meat and meat products, was denounced
as lobbyist by Representative Ben
johnson, of Kentucky, on the floor OF
the House yesterday.
Mr.. johnson made bitter verbal as
sauIt on Scharf. warning his colleagues
against the latter. who, he said, had
made a practice of obtaining money from
members of Congress, just before cleo
ton. on the pretense that he could de-
liver to them the Catholic vote in their
districts.
DR.. Scharf. when seen last night, en-
phatically denied Representative John
sons statements.
Mr.. Johnson's speech created something
of a sensation. A brief inquiry among
the House membership. Immediately after
Mr.. Johnson had concluded, revealed
the fact that, as charged by Johnson,
a number OF members had peen ap-
preached by Scharf who offered to deliver
Catholic votes through the knights OF
Columbus. Of which he claimed to be
a
Catholic and a member of the order,
seemed particularly bitter against Scharf
for claiming that he could deliver the
order.
II was learned yesterday that some
years ago Scharf was employed by
the Republican Congressional Com
nittee i'to deliver the Catholic vote" to
Republican candidates in the various
close districts. But his services were
later dispensed with, according to a
former chairman of the Republican Con-
eressionaI COMMITTEES, because Scharf
did not make good
Scharf Denies Charges.
DR. E. L.. Scharf, proprietor of the
Catholic News Agency. in a statement
issued last night. said:
'As to what occurred at the time Mr..
johnson called at my house. II is evident
that his memory is defective. His state
ments on the floor OF the House to-day
REGARDING the work of the Catholic News
Agency. OF which ! am the proprietor.
should be labeled Important. IL true.
Mr.. Johnson's effort to twist simple
news service into an effort to control the
entire Catholic vote OF his district Is. alb
surd on the face OF it,
DR.. Scharf declared that his pronrietor-
ship OF the agency necessitated his con-
slant presence at the Capitol in present
ing his views regarding bills which his
paper was backing.
In reference to Representative john
anna visit to his house Dr. Scharf said

CLARK MAY LOSE $4,000.
Extra Session Would Deprive Him
of Lecture Proceeds.

of Lecture Proceeds.
If there is an extra session of Con-
gress, Representative Champ Clark, Of
Missouri the Democratic Speaker-to-be.
will lose 5000. Mr.. Clark has signed
contracts for ten weeks on the ChaUtau-
qua lecture circuit. at $500 a week and
expenses. He planned to start out from
Philadelphia on March and talk his
way out to the Pacific Coast and back.
If President Taft calls the extra ses-
sion for April or later, Mr.. Clark thinks
he will be able to keep some Of the dates
and save some of the pleasant sum in
yolved But if the session is to begin
on March Is he will just throw up his
hands and bid the 5000 a fond fare
well.

to Catholics, which Mr.. Johnson, being a
Catholic, said he would do. He denied
