CURRENCY CAUCUS
CALLED NEAR-PLO1
Sen. Cummins Charges Demo-
Gratis With Being Danger
ousIy Close to Conspiracy"

WASHINGTON, Dec. 4.-Charges
by Senator Cummins that the DEM
ocrats had approached dangerously
near a conspiracy against the rights
of all the people" In taking caucus
action on the currency bill, marked
the opening of today's session of the
Senate.
"This bill has been considered else
where and passed elsewhere" he
said. There will be no real debate
in this chamber; it will be simply
a farce. I hesitate to participate in
it for / do not want to give II be-
fore the country the color of actual
dellberation. l cannot believe the
American people will for a long per-
iod tolerate this legislation by a eau
Gus"
Senator Lewis, of Illinois, retorted
that Senator Cummins had sanction
ed similar caucus methods while gov
ernor of Iowa, but Mr.. Cummins de-
MED it.
Senator Owen, defending the DEM
ooratic caucus action, declared the
Democrats had adopted the most
"direct, efficient and simple way of
securing Legislation, a1Ler congress
had for months delayed action.
He denounced the extended debate
on the Hetch- Hetchy bill as a
beating of the air with empty
words" and a delay of the currency
bill.
Republicans declared that Demo-
Gratis were absenting themselves from
the chamber and that all addresses
were being made to "empty seats"
Senator Reed declared the impress
sion had gone abroad that President
Wilson had exerted some undue In
fiuence" on Congress in the currency
matter.
"The President" said Senator Reed
emphatically, has never attempted
to coax or coerce Congress into pass
ing any particular bill. | entirely
deny that the President has gone a
hairs breadth beyond the perform
ance of his constitutional duty"
Senator Norris, Republican, de-
clared the situation showed the need
of a cloture rule. He attacked the
caucus.
