VOL. LIIL—NO. 19 EXTRA SESSION ‘Washington, Jan. 22.—~When republi- can leaders in congress are asking if there Is likely to be an extra session of congress because of the congested condition of the calendars in both branches they invariably answer in the negative. ‘hey insist, in spite of the exira session gossip, that the present ehort session is not jammed more than was the short session two vears ago, w0 far as appropriation bills are =31~ cerned. Comparison of the two ses- sions proves the truth of the leaders’ claims. Already the house has passed the Indlan, rivers and harbors, pensiuns, lsgislative, urgent deficiency and army sppropriation bills and is nearly through with the postoffice bill. Two vears ago at this time the house bad passed oniy the pensions, legislative, District of Columbia, naval bills. It is true that the senate thus far has passed only the urgent deficiency hill but two years ago at the same time only the legislative bill Rad bheen prassed. What Has Besn Done Can Be Done Again. Senate leaders are not disturbed by the situation. Two years ago thirteen propriation blils were passed in the last four weeks of the session and the republican leaders say what has been done can be done again. Some senators belleve that there bas been no particular effort made to prevent congestion and that approp: s«- tion bills have been delayed to Il off general legislation, It would prise no omne now if members oppose 1o votes on the Lorimer ca resolution providing for the el wenators by direct vote of th a tariff commission bill and >t troversial matters, should v jous in their efforts. The shin sub- #idy blll is being used as a buffer and there are several treaty matters that NEW YORK APPEALS TO “SAVE THE BABIES!” Will Flash the Length of Broadway This Week.

The rail- roads have .found it necessary again and again to increase wages. w they are making a moderate advance in some rates, but the advance is so small in comparison with the value of the commodities as to be almost im- possible of computation by the ulti- ‘mate consumer. If the railroads are not allowed to raise their freight rats it cannot but be felt in other ways. Timothy E. Byrnes, vice prestdent of the New York.

Albany, N. Y., Jan. 22—The Hup- puch statement was shown to Thomas AL Osborpe, one of the leaders of the Shepard committee, who arrived here tonight. “Mr. Huppuch,” said Mr. Osborne, “seems to have missed the great point at issue, which is that the members of the legislature should abide by the will of their constituents and not be co- erced by caucus action. His view is inconsistent with the opinion express- ed by Governor Dix, who advised the the dictates of their consciences and carry out the wishes of their constit- uents.” Just as the members of the lygisla- ‘bany to renew- the struggie for Senator Depew’s successor, Mr. Huppuch’s statement worked a sudden change in the situation, which was expected to He dormant until the joint assembly took its fifth joint ballot tomorrow at noon.

Sheehan came here to- night from his home in New York, arriving before any of the leaders who have been working in his cause. He read Mr. Huppuch's statement, but de- clined to be quoted regarding it or say anything whatever of the situation. Comparatively few members of the legislature were in_ town tonight, but the Sheehan men already on hand did not conceal their elation ever the Hup- puch statement. The senate and assembly party lead- ers have promised that every member of the legislature, except two or three who have presented satisfactory ex- cuses, will be required to attend to- morrow's session, and that if necessary a “close call” will be ordered to com- pel their attendance.
