combination against certain features
Of the bill, in which several demo-
cratic votes might be swayed from
support Of the measure.
Three candidates had been select
ed to lead the three parties in the
balloting in the house today for the
speakership; but the reelection Of
Speaker Clark and the other officers
who served the house in the last ses-
sion was assured. The democrats
had unanimously endorsed Mr.. Clark,

Joined the party organization and
will act in concert throughout the ses-
sion, at least upon measures that
may be advanced as part Of the pro-
gressive party's legislative program.
Wilson's Influence to Be Felt.
President Wilson's influence Is ex-
pected, by democratic leaders of both
house, to be a potent factor In the
shaping of legislation throughout the
extra session. The president has
taken an active part in the prepare
tory work on the tariff bill; and will
keep In close touch with the senate
and house through the consideration
of the tariff, currency or other sub
jects that may be taken up during
the session. He has made it known
that he may frequently upset pre-
cedent by visiting the capitol, and
seeking personal conferences with
those active in the conduct of legis-
lative affairs.
Important changes in the rules Of
the senate will be brought forward
during the next few days. These
changes, as advocated by the new
democratic leaders of the senate and
approved by President Wilson, seek
to prevent any concentration Of power
in the hands of a few senators, or OF
committee chairmen. 1t is proposed
to make all chairmenships elective;
to give the members of each commit
tee the right to call meetings With
out securing the consent OF the
chairman; and to authorize commit
tees to elect members of joint confer
ence committees.
The latter provision If adopted will
leave to the full democratic member
ship of the finance committee the
selection of the three or five SEN
ators, who will confer with similar
house committee in the settlement OF
tariff disputes and the final compile
ton of the tariff BILL " q.
May Continue Until July.
The probable length of the session
that begins today is uncertain. Actual
work upon tariff revision probably
will begin tomorrow, with the con-
Of the Underwood bill by
the democratic house members, IN
Within week it Is expect
ed that the tariff debate will be In
full swing in the house. Senate lead
ers do not expect the completion OF
tariff work before late in July. Should
currency reform also be take up at
the present session, congress prob
ably will remain at work until
autumn.
