Cannon Denounces Hays.
In the caucus Representative Can
non, who was one Of Mr.. Mann's cam
paign managers denounced Mr.. Hays
for his activities in Wash ington and
elsewhere. He said that Mr.. Hays
was engaged in fixing" delegates for
the next republican national cOnyen-
ton. He charged that Hays had been
in the Southern states to arrange for
the pOcketing of the delegates from
the "rOtten bOroughs.'
"Progressive'' republicans from the
Western states refused to vote for MI.
Gillett for the reason that he voted
for reciprocity and did not vote for
WOmans suffrage. They said that Mr..
Gillett represented the reactiOnary in
terests of New England.
1t was predicted by democrats,
prior to the republican caucus, that
the Hays-P enrose-LO outfit would
ride rough-shod over the progress
sives," and that was done. The only
things saved out of the wreck was the
big committee on committees, pro-
vided for by a, motion made by Mr..
Mann. The Gillett people, led by
Representative WinsloW, of Massac hu-
sets, presented a slate-a hand
picked committee on committees
but it was broken by the Mann fac
ton. Mr.. WinslOw offered a resolu-
ton, EN- bodying his proposition, and
called for the previous question. For
his pains he was roundly den ounced
for an effort TO gag the caucus. His
committee was packed against Mr.
Mann. The worm turned and Mr.
Mann will dominate the committee on
committees against Mr.. Gillett.
That is the situation in the house
The democrats realize that the Old
Guard is in control If Mr.. Gillctt
rules. he is the representative of the
Penrose group; if Mr. Mann is boss
he is supported by Representative
Cannon.

man of the republican national COM
mittee and a small party Of senator's
were meddling with the affairs of the
house.
Before the caucus convened, Mr..
Mann said:
IF the republican members of the
house intend to permit Mr.. Hays or
Senators Penrose and Lodge to die
tate legislation to the next house, then
of course, they do not desire me for
speak Care the republicans to
permit the republican national COM
mittec chairman and the republican
leaders Of the senate to dictate legis-
Iation in the house?) eff [ am elect
ed speaker, the republicans of the
house may rest assured that [ will
not permit any interference from out
side sources with the business of the
house or with whatever legislation
the house may desire to enact. Per-
haps that is one reason why Mr.. Hays
and Senato Penrose and Lodge do
not regard my candidacy with favor -

vations the German people are suffer-
ing and the danger OF collapse under

tional life.
To delay the peace settlement, de

evitably be to run the risk of hay
ing nobody to settle with. and OF hay
ing another great area of the world

army of occupation while the CoUn-
tries were half way between peace

accept the allied terms or resist them
actively. or accept them and endeavor
to eyade them.
The estimates Of the size of the
army of occupation were for a half
million men. but this might prove
merely PROVISIONAL.
The army was being demObili2ed al
the rate of $4,000 a day. and men
were enlisting for the new army at
the very satisfactory rate of 1000 a
day.
Regarding the amount TO be recov-
cred from Germany. Mr.. Churchill said
it had already been announced that
the allies intended TO exact all Ger.

Mr.. DOUTY GIVES FINAL
LECTURE ON "THE OPERA

The closing lecture recital on "The
Opera" by Nicholas Douty, under the
auspices of the Washington Society of
Fine Arts, took place last evening at
the Central High School. In the pre-
yious lecture Mr.. Douty discoursed on
Later Italian Composers" and the
subject last evening dealt with Other
Contemporaries"
The composers under consideration
included three Americans, and all of
those whose works were represent
ed on the program are still living and
writing, with the exception of De-
busy, who died during the past year.
The lecturer dwelt at length on the
work of the American Horatio, Par
ker, whose compositions have won
bseveral prizes, notably the opera
| ''Fairyland," for which he was award
ed the $4,000 prize offered by the
Federation of Women's Clubs and
which received its premiere at the re-
cent exposition on the Pacific coast.
Mr. Douty attributed this composers
popularity among scholarly musicians
to his fiawless technic in composition
and to his originality in orcheStration.
In illustrating his remarks he was
assisted by Mrs. Huron Lawson, with
| Miss Brickerstein at the piano, sing
| ing, among other excerpts from opera,
! duets from "Fairyland," from "The
Jewels Oh the MADONNA, by WOIf-
Ferrari. and from Debussy's THE
! Prodigal Son" He gave also the
arias in the scene at the hall from
| Samson and Delilah," by Saint
Saens, and "Naaueros Song" from
"Natoma" by Victor Herbert
Mrs. Lawson was heard in 'Depuis
lie Jour-" by Charpentier: "Burn, Sa,
cred Fire" from '.Azora," by Henry
Hadley; Aria de Prinzivalle," from
l.Monna Wanna" by Fevrier, and
Spring Song" from "Natoma," by
Herbert.
Mr. Douty, who is an accomplished
pianist as well as singer, played two
ballet dances by French composers, in
which field he declared the French to
be unexcelled- At the close of the
program he sang, as encore, THE
| Nightingale Has a Lyre of Gold" by
Wheipley.

of this district has sent out a formal
notice in this regard. He says:
For many years past the Internal
Revenue Department has held that
payment of special tax as liquor deal
Ter would not be required on account of
the sale of warehouse certificates COW
|ering spirits in bonded warehouses, on
which the tax has not been paid
This conclusion was based upon the
view that since the Government has
lien for the tax, and the spirits are
liable to forfeiture under certain con-
ditions, the sale Of warehouse certi-
icates does not operate to pass an IN
conditional title to the spirits covered
thereby.
However, in a recent case, the Su-
preme Court stated it's understanding
to be that it is the unbroken custom
Iof the trade to treat storage receipts
for spirits as completely equivalent to
the spirits themselves, and to sell or
pledge them freely without question,
and concluded that spirits held in store
under Government control are trans
ferred by the. delivery Of such docu-
ments.
Therefore, persons selling ware
house receipts representing spirits in
storage will hereafter be held liable
to special tax as they would on account
|of the sale of the spirits themselves. -
