CLARKE WINS IN SENATE:
SHIPPING BILL DOOMED
Arkansas Senator's Victory Over Pomerene for Presi-
dent Pro Tenn. Also Declared to Mean the De-
feat Of Proposed Gag Rule.

Hughes ana James. two OF the best rec
ognized Administration Senators. voted
for Clarke. At the same time such other
well known Administration Senator's as
Kern. Hollis. Hastings and Salisbury
voted for Pornerene,
Early In the debate as to the quail
hcations OF the two candidates the point
wa made tv the friends OF Senator
Pomerene that he was entitled to the
honor because II would he helpful to him
In his race for reelection. This idea
secuted by Senator vardaman and
others, who insisted that the people
could not be Influenced by such matters.
Critical Note struck.
Later the speeches look on the tone
OF criticism Of the Senators who voted
against the Administrations ship pur-
chase bill last session. This was sharply
resented by several Senators who OPP
posed the ship purchase Legislation.
Senator Newlands made a concilla-
tory speech In which he pointed out the
unw!sdom OF trying to discipline a Sem
ator for asserting his individual judg-
ment and conscience against Admins
trat!on dlctat!on. Senator Stone called
on the two candidates to answer certain
questions as TO how they would act In
certain contingencies in the event they
were called to preside.
Senator Core made a speech full OF
Irony directed at the suggestion hat
the candidates were to be lnterrogated.
He aid that before he would vote for
either candidate the latter must prom

ator who might address the chair even
IL said Republican were in order and
that the Candidate would also refuse
to permit the confirmation Of any nomi-
nee :or Federal Judge who did not
make a disclosure OF how he would
rule on certain matters.
The windup OF the family row was
happy. senator Pomerene promptly
moved to make the election OF Senator
Clarke unanimous and the President
pro tempore acknowledged the compli-
ment in a very graceful way but as
serted his Independence in doing so.
The conference will meet tomorrow
morning and viii probably have a de-
bate on cloture before the ~ fSed
for the vote. which will cons not later
than 8 o'clock In the afternoon under

KITCHIN IS PICKED
FOR HOUSE LEADER
Democrats Retain All Of the
Old Chairmen Of Com
mittees.

WASHINGTON, Dec. 3.-By the end OF
e week the Democratic leaders are
hopeful that the House will be fully
organized and ready for business. II
present plans are carried out the Ad.
ministration national defence programme
will originate in legislative form in the
House.
The Democratic committee on COM
mittees completed the Democratic COM
mittee lists to-day. Representative
Mann of Illinois. Republican leader. will
finish his work on the minority lists the
middle OF next week. All the old chair
men WI continue at the head Of House
committees as In the last Congress.
Representative Padget. Of Tennessee
will act as chairman OF the Committee
on Naval Affairs and Representative Hay
Of Virginia Of the Committee on Mill
tary Affairs. Representative Fitzgerald
Of New York will be continued at the
head of the Committee on Appropria-
tons. Representative kitchin Of North
Carolina will succeed to the vacancy
at the head Of the Committee on Ways
and Means. and by virtue OF that posi-
ton will act as the majority leader.
1t is understood to be the purpose Of
Chairmen Hay and Padgett to begin
work at once on the national defence
bills. These measures have already been
drafted In tentative form and may be
introduced on the first day Of the ses-
sion. Hearings probably will not be
begun until after the holidays.
Until Congress has received the Presi-
dents address. which will be delivered
on Tuesday. nothing will be done by
the Ways and Means Committee looking
to the drafting Of revenue legislation.
In fact the chances are that serious
work on the revenue proposition will not
be taken up until II IL determined Just
how much money Congress In likely to
allow for defence purposes.
II this course is followed such . pro-
m as the Administration MAJ de-
wise to raise the additional revenues
needed for the enlarged military plans
will not come up for consideration until
spring.
As preparedness Is admitted BIZ all
the leaders. without regard to party, to

Administration spokesman in Congress
are insistent that it shall a X precedence

There was a manual delivery OF the

At this point the Governor remarked
that in n criminal case he believed such

he was not sure what the rule was

The result indicated that the Admin

either candidate. Administration Sena.
tors divided between Clarke and Pom
creme.
Notwithstanding the Presidents aloof-
ness the result was int rpreted by many
as presaSing defeat in the Senate both
for cloture and for the Administrators

was we'll understood, il intensely hostile
TO both propositions, and the attempt to
beat him for reelection Wa based
chiefly on his opposition NJ the last ses-
sion to the Administrations ship pur-

hat the ~latter's defeat meant the fall
