May 1.-The ways and means committee of the house, or the Democratic members thereof, are sit ting as a committee on committees seeking to find good committee as- signmants for the majority members of the house. To keep from putting square pegs into round holes, and to find holes enough for all the pegs is the problem that is now occupying the committees.
 AS Legislation is to a large extent shaped in the committees great care is being taken to place 8. majority of conservatives upon all important com mittees. It is well known fact that the Clark Underwood forces in the house are conservative and does not jibe at all times with the adminIstra- ton forces and under the circum- stances the outcome of the delibera- tfons of the committee on committees is being watched with great interest
 The Connecticut delegation profess not to know what they will be given in the way of assignments. MT. Reil- ly without doubt will retain his place on the post office committee. Whether he will also hold his place on the coinage weights and measures com mittee is & question that Is not yet decided. MT. Donovan says he has not yet expressed a choice, they would not give me the place I first asked for, and I shall now take what is given me" he said. Mir Kennedy would like a place on the Judiciary committee; Mir. Lonergan has been asked if he would accept place on the committee on patents The ways and means committee realize that Connecticut should be represented on this important committee. and 8 mem Der of the committee has asked MT Lonergan if such an assignment would be acceptable to him. Mir MHhan has made known to the committee his first and second choice. First he would . like a, place on naval affairs and next on the rivers and harbors committee.

Sneaker Webster Resorts to Drastic Action to Keep
 Democrats From Leaving Chamber
BATTLE OVER THE COUNTY COMMIsSIONERSHIPS
Body in Session Until 10 O'Clock Last Nght-AH RolcalI Records Broken-No Election For New London County
 -Disagreeng Action With Senate in Four Counties Speaker Creates Tie, Thereby Defeating Lanphere.

Hartford, Conn, May 1.-The re- publican house had the democratic minority in chancery this afternoon and tonight, politically speaking, over the county commissionerships. All records for number of roll calls were broken. Twenty times the roll of the house was called by the clerks and each time saw a fading away of the democratic vote. Adjournment was finally taken at 10 o'clock after ev- citing scenes.
 Doors Ordered Closed
 After the ninth roll call Speaker Webster ordered the doors closed to prevent any members from leaving, unless they were excused or had hel pairs At nine o'clock. however, about twenty members rushed the door Keepers and made their escape, un- i'll finally there was no quorum. Speaker Webster then ruled that the vote should be taken by pairs to help constitute a quorum. Objection was at once raised and roll call or- dered. The speaker was sustained by lQ7 to 5T.
 Democrats outgeneraIed.
 The democrats started a flibuster shortly after six o'clock and it lasted until s, when Mr. Webster duled that he would not recognize any more dila- tory resolutions Nevertheless, there was running fire of motions put to the chair which the speaker ignored, as if he did not hear them
 The republicans, starting with a bare majority Of three votes, maintained their advantage to the end. Repre- sentative Healy the republican lead CT. out-1nanoeuvred the democrats un- der MT. ThoE3s and forced the OppO- sition to sit through roll calls which they had started by a motion to recon slider the election of Andrew Steele, republican, as commissioner of Hart ford county.
 Disssreeing Action in Four Counties
 The democratic senate had sent down down the names of democrats for Hartford New Haven, New Lon dcn and Fairfield counties, while there were house resolutions for candidates of the same party. The result is that in four counties there is disagreeing action while the house will send to the senate the names of four republicans fro mthe other counties. It is antici- psted that the senate will not bow to the house and the disagreements will last till the session ends. Governor Ba1dWinE will then have the oppor- tunity to i'll a vacancy which will ex- ist after July 1 in each county board.

New Orleans, Oct. 1S.-Cotton-Fu- lures opened steady, 1 point down to points up, compared with the close of yesterday. Cables were not high enough, but no attention was paid to them, first prices being about the lOWeat in the early trading. On the call December sold points down, but Immediately after the call there was quick spurt of fresh buying for long account and some little short covering. The reason for the buy ing was chiefly the rains in the cen a tyal and eastern sections of tie belt. Prospects of more rain over Sunday { east of the Mississippi and the cold
 wave in the West increased bullish ' ssentiment. At the end of the first sshalf hour of. business prices were s6@S points over yesterdays last quo- tations.
