HARMONY PREVAILS;
 CONGRESS CAUCUSES

WASHINGTON, March 6.-The Dem- ocratic Senate and House caucuses yesterday were harmonious to the mi nutest detail. The fact that the more progressive element of the party was in complete control in both branches had been conceded for some time, and the conservatives gracefully submitted. Senator John w. Kern, of Indiana, sue ceeded Senator Thomas S. Martin, of Virginia, as the Democratic Senate leader without opposition. Martin was elected by the caucus of the last Con- gress over Senator Shively, Kern's colleague from Indiana, the candidate of the progressive Democrats,
 Speaker Champ Clark was unani' mously chosen for the speakership by the House caucus. The other officers also were reelected without opposi tion.

BRlTISHERS COMING
 AFTER THE CUP

LONDON, March 6.-The Royal Ul- ster Club has finally challenged the New York Yacht Club for a series of watch races for the famous Americas cup to take place in 1914. The nego. tiations that have been conducted by the Royal Ulster Yacht Club for sever al years to have the race conditions changed were finally abandoned and it was decided to accept arrangements under which the races of decade ago were sailed. They require the chal' lenger to cross the Atlantic on its own bottom and under sail, and provide for a series of five races in the open ocean

Alaska Legislature Gets
 $42,26O for Its Expenses

will be necessary to make some slight increase in the mileage of members over the amount shown by this state ment presented to the committee, for this reason: The printed statement on page 2S as exhibited to the Com
 mittce on the Territories assumes that every member Of the Legislature is elected either from Juneau Valdez, Fairbanks. or Nome, whereas in it's practical working it has so happened that several of the members are elect ed from other points in these judicial divisions. For instance in the Fair banks district. one of the Senators was elected from Ruby City and an- other from Iditarod which adds two or three hundred miles to their mile age. In the Valdez district one of the members of the Senate was elected from Seward. while a member of the Legislature was elected from Knik; these points are somewhat more dis tant than Valdez. For that reason | have added something more than five hundred dollars to the total mileage of the tweuty-four members to cover the real mileage in practice,
 Three new items are to be added. For the printing of the laws have put in an estimate of $5.OOO, which think will be sufficient. For the rent of leg isIative halls and committee rooms, S2.ooo. which ought to be sufficient. This item is necessary because the public building which is now in pro cess of erection at Juneau is not com pleted and can not be used by the Leg islature at it's first session. The third item is for stationary, supplies, printing Of bills, reports. etc, $5,OOO. These items are covered by the phrase providing for the printing of the laws and other incidental expenses thereof found in Sec. l5 of the bill
