Darro%s attorneys lost the first

In the proposed congressional inquir-

A common report today was that
the money trust investigation would

resolution directing the investigation,
declared he had not been consulted
as to a postponement.
Representative Henry of Texas
chairman of the rules committee. to-
day issued statement declaring the
representatives who were trying to
send the money trust investigation
resolution to the banking and cur
rency committee were the ones who
had defied his efforts for an inquiry |
Mr.. Henry, who has not conferred |
with Democratic Leader Underwood |
or three weeks, announced that he
would insist on an investigation. He
said he would not accept the chair
nanship of the investigating commit
zee. Some of the democrats who are
opposed to the investigation have
;harged that the persistent movement
or its prosecution is instigated by
William J. Bryan.

RALLYING AROUND STANDARD
REPUBLICANS IN ALL PARTS OF
THE COUNTRY WISH RE-ELEc-
TIoN OF EXECUTIVE.

Washington, Feb. LIN the frs
authorized statement he has issued il
connection with the Taft campaign
Charles d. Hilles, secretary to the
president, predicted today that Presi-
dent Taft would be nominated and
elected.
President Taft's nomination in
June is as certain as anything could
be" said Mr.. Hilles in his statement.
4 am confident there will be com
paratively little opposition to him in
the national convention and when The
nomination is made republicans of
the country will rally to the party
standard and win a great victory in
November.
i would not make this prediction
did not feel thar my information
from all parts of the country war
rants me in doing so. 1t is easy TO
make big claims and to try to deceive
people ana l think that a man who
does so without facts and figures to
Justify is guilty of deception.
"A month-agp before had gotten
in touch with republicans in all the
states, | would not have said this
much. In that month i have seen
The lines drawn closer and closer. In |
.he last week the situation has clear
I'd wonderfully with republicans in all
directions falling into line for the
president and manifesting "a deter
to bring about his nomina-
ion.
1t is useless to speak in general
erms or to undertake at short notice
o go into conditions in each state,
tut developments in three of the big
tates within a few days ought to
'oint >conclusively to the present
rend."
Mr. Hilles goes on to review condi-
ions in New York, Ohio and Indiana,
laiming that President Taft has re-
eived endorsement in those states
yhich indicate they will give their
elegates to him in the convention.
There has been lots of noise in
'hio." said Mr.. Hilles, 'Tbut substan-
al republicans in every congress I;
lonal district are determined that !,
le president shall have the delegates
nd he will get them, too. !
