the question out of the way so far as

AS was the case with the Hobson

for the Democratic membership of the

votes for women.
That the resolution Is destined to
defeat by an almost two-thirds ma

VISIONS OF THE PROPOSED

Clarity the Legislative Program in
Congress.

Washington Jan. Divisions in
the democratic ranks over the form
OF the government ship purchase bin
developed at a party caucus late to-
day held for the purpose Of clarity
ing the legislative t0ngle which
threatens the administration program
for the shot session
Although resolution was adopted
to make shipping bin the unfinish-
ed business of the senate following
passage of the District Of Columbia
appropriation bill it was accomplish
ed only upon decision to hold another
caucuas Monday night to pass upon
amendments to the pending ship pur-
chase bill.
Vigorous opposition to the govern
ment ownership feature OF the pend
ing bill was expressed by several sen
ators, and several amendments it was
declared. would be Submitted to the
caucus.
With only six weeks of the regular
session remaining and with fourteen
appropriation bills to be acted upon,
senate leaders have become uneasy.
When the caucus met enator Fletcher
in charge Of the ship bill, offered a
resolution to make the bill the para
mount business Of the senate next
week
Several senators suggested that il
be considered the exclusion CT appro-
priations bills for a period Of two
weeks. il in that time it should de
velop that it could not be passed,
some senators were said to be ready
to abandon all hope Of getting a vote
on the seasure at this session
Senator Hardwick of Georgia, told
the caucus he had informed the pres
ident Of his opposition to the bill be
cause of his antipathy for an endorse
ment OF the pending measure without
amendment.
Several senators pleaded for an OPP
lportunity to enact other legislation,
Senator Hoke Smith asserted that an
extra session would be absolutely ne
cessary unless rural credits bill
were passed.
Other senators insisted that the
shin bin be given careful considera-
ton before any caucus agr cement

nouuced he would seek to eliminate
the proposed private operating cor
poration feature to be financed by the
government in favor of government
ships acquired for the navy and leas-
ed when not required for navel pur-
poses TO private corporations.
So many suggestions were made
that It finally was agreed to consider
announcements next Monday night be

GOVERNMENT COPIES

OF FOODSTUFFs PRICES.
President Wilson Instructs Depart
ment of Justice to Investigate the
Raise in Wheat Prices.

washington, Jan. with the de-
partment Of justice under instmlc-
lions from President Wilson seeking
TO determine whether any Illegal
combinations are back of the recent
sudden rise i'm foodstuff prices. and
the departments OF agriculture and
commerce compiling figures showing
the amounts Of food supplies in the
United States and the recent in
creases in exports, the government
began vigorous efforts otGay to ,ofe
with the food price situation.
In addition giving the president
power to stop the expectation Of food
stuffs whenever necessary and other
bills designed to lower prices we're
discussed informally at the capital
but there were no indications that
anything along this line will be done
during the present session OF con
gress.
Representative Farr of Pennsyl-
vania who introduced the resolution
calling for statistics on the question
will await the government reports be-
fore taking further action. No infor-
nation leading to the belief that lille
gal combinations had forced up the
price OF wheat and flour had yet been
received, officials said but United
States district attorneys were under
orders to follow up every clue.
In November 1913, wheat valued at
$3,4S0319 was exported and in Nov
ember 1914 $22,S20097 The total
value of foodstuffs exported during
the eleven months ending with Nov
ember 1912 was $140531,79o, which
increased to $191,605,Sl0 in 1913 and
to S253 ,073,444 last year.
The complete figures for December
and the first two weeks of January
have not been complied but officials
said they would show even greater
increases.
