HENRY RESOLUTION
MAY Be REOFFERED
Republican PTogTessives viii As
sist In Its Adoption.

Washington, Feb. 24.-Angered over
the announcement of the merger OF
the Manhattan and Bankers Trust
companies in New York and the init
nation that this was the forerunner
of general merger of those two Nor
gan controlled financial institutions
with the big Guaranty Trust company,
opponents of the money trust" de-
clared they will force real inyesti-
cation" by congress.
They insisted that the merger
shows that the great financial inter
ests are satisfied with the action of
the house caucus in delegating the
money trust investigation to the regu-
lar house committee instead of spe-
cial committee.
According to Representative Norris
(Rep., Neb.) the Republican and Dem
ocratic progressives of the house plan
to combine and thus force the adop-
tion OF the Henry resolution, turned
down at the recent Democratic caucus.
Progressive leaders, headed by Nor
ris and Lenroot (Rep., Wis.,, held a
conference to decide on plan of cam
paign.
They then began overtures to the
Democrats who supported the original
Henry resolution for the special com
mittee. III they can get enough Dem
ocrats to insure success Henry's res
olution will be dug up, reoffered and
a record vote demanded.

STILL SUBJECT
OF COMMENT
congressman Discuss the
Roosevelt Platform.
LODGE GREATLY WORRIED

Announced His Allegiance to Former
President Before He Was Aware of
the Character of the coloneI's Dec
& isration of Principles.
Washington, Feb. 24.-Regulars and
progressives alike are still engaged in
commenting on Colonel Roosevelts
Columbus speech.
Representative Cooper of Wisconsin
gives unqualified endorsement to the
Roosevelt speech In all details, char
acterizing 1t as a masterpiece OF pro-
gressive thought.
George w. Norris, leader of the
house progressives, accepts the Roose-
welt speech as the statement OF the
progressive program and hoists Roose-
velt colors to the masthead of the Nor
ris senatorial campaign in Nebraska.
Undoubtedly the most distressed
man In congress as a result of the
Aew developments Is Senator Lodge
Of Massachusetts. To all who asked
his opinion on the Columbus speech
Senator Lodge replied that he had no
comment to make upon 1t. 1t is known,
however, that when he pledged his al
legiance to Colonel Roosevelt in the
coming presidential campaign and
when, I'm fairness to President Taft, ne
caused a statement of the position he
felt he must assume to be carried to
the administration, he was not aware
Of the character of the forthcoming
declaration OF principles. All that he
would say for publication was that his
own convictions on issues involved are
we'll known.
Senator Lodge sought his colleague,
Senator Crane. and they had a long
talk. Senator Crane has been entire
" In the confidence Of Senator Lodge,
and understands fully the latter's
ideas as to his first allegiance" Now,
after parting company with his col.
league as to the support OF candidates
Senator Lodge Is advising with him,
partly with respect to the reception
the Roosevelt platform will meet with
from Massachusetts Republicans.

NO TRUCE IN MINE
STRIKE IN SIGHT
British Owners and WOrkmen
Fail to Agree.

London, Feb. 24.-Mixed feelings
prevail among those directly interest
ed I'm the coal trade dispute. While
the great majority of the public finds
1t hard to believe that such calamity
as a national strike of coal miners,
involving nearly 100000 men, will be
allowed to occur the coal owners on
the whole take less favorable view
of the situation.
Delegates of the coal owners and OF
the miners held separate meetings pri-
vately to discuss the outcome of con-
ferences with Premier Asquith and
other members OF the government.
II is thought that the difficulty In
the English coal mining area Is within
easy reach of solution, as the mine
owners are inclined to show more
sympathy with the mems demands for
q universal minimum wage. but they
would expect In return some guaran-
tee from the miners In regard to a
minimum output. The miners In Eng
land would regret to see their treas
ury, which is now we'll supplied, de-
pleted In order to support the striking
Welsh coal miners, whose own funds
were exhausted by the strike In Wales
last year.
