It was said at legislative offices that j the act of 1915 was passed to stop | duplication of pay and that employes I were not "doubled up" between the | organization of the two houses and the naming of new employes. The conditions were to-day de scribed as follows: "Men carried over from the session of 1915 and not re appointed were paid from the start of the session to.January*22 and men re appointed will be paid for one month | and no more, while new appointee*, j will be paid from the day they were put into place and not from the start of the session. Men appointed to new places, where the salary is different from the place they held in the session of 1915, will be paid at the salary lixed for their old place until January 22 and for the remainder of the month at tl.e pay of the new place." A case in point, is the speaker's page in the House. This page was a senate page at $2 a day and will be paid for that until the 22nd when he I became speaker's page. He will be | paid $3 a day from the 22nd. As far as knowft no Democrats since the days of Jesse J. Lybarger are on I record as having refused to take any i pay and whether Mr. Bybarger finally j cashed his check after getting due j publicity in a certain democratic i newspaper is occasionally the subject !of a guessing game on Capitol Hill. | One man to-day said relative to the : objections to the high cost of prayers j that he wondered whether the Demo | crats thought prayer should be dis pensed with.

Washington, Jan. L' 7. V— After an unsuccessful attempt had been made yesterday to reach an agreement be tween the Democrats and Republicans on the disposition of the resolution in troduced by Senator Borah reaffirming the faith of the Senate in the Monroe Doctrine and Washington's advice to avoid "entangling alliances" the Idaho Senator declared in a speech before the Michigan Society last night that all proposals of alliances and leagues to enforce world peace inevitably would commit the United States to a course in direct conflict with the policy of Washington and Monroe. "If the people of this country want to enter European politics, the Sen ator said, "take part in Euro pean controversies, become en tangled in its dynastic dissensions; if they want to furnish money ami soldiers, ships and men to be subject to the call of some tribunal or league, in which tribunal we will have but one vote, very well. "The people have a right to enter that perilous course if they choose, for this is the people's government. But let us understand perfectly what it means before we take the step. Let us not be deceived nor deceive .our selves. We should debate and con sider every step before we take it. for these are the steps which, once taken, it is impossible for a people to re trace. "pnce in the maelstrom of Euro pean politics and it will be almost impossible to get out. Once involved in the matter of economically boy cotting or in the matter of enforcing decrees by military force, it will be virtually impossible to get back to the policy under which we have lived and strengthened for more than a century. "The singular and startling vicious- I ncss of this whole proposition of a I league to insure peace or enforce peace is this: "We enter the league; we contribute our portion of ships and soldiers for a police force of the world—a force large enough and strong enough to crush those who do not submit their vital interests s to arbitration or con ciliation. Then some question arises as to immigration, citizenship or of territorial propinquity to which we de cline as a people to submit, especially to a tribunal so numbers against us. Then we have agreed in advance that this force which we have helped to create shall attack and assail us as a people. •'Without assuming to assail indi viduals, 1 denounce this principle as | perfectly vicious, us perfectly heinous, indefensible in morals and not even hardly a proper subject for these 4ift | er-dinner speeches." Undivided Loyalty From All America Demands Roosevelt in Speech Washington, Jan. 27. Demand ing undivided loyalty to America and the abandonment of citizenship on the "50-50 basis," and characterizing the Hay bill with being "as foolish and unpatriotic legislation as was ever put on the statute books," former Presi dent Theodore Roosevelt went on to pay his respects to the "male and fe male apostles of folly and fatuity." who have denounced preparedness, in a letter of smashing directness read before the third session of the Na tional Security League at Washington yesterday. The session was also enlivened by an attacks by Ludwig Nissen, a resident of Brooklyn, N. Y., on Elihu Root's speech, Mr. Nissan's remarks being greeted with hisses and cat-calls and cries of "stop him!" and "put him out!" The third feature of the session was the characterization of America as being composed of "an undisciplined people, physically, morally and intel lectually," and urging the considera tion of essential fundamental princi ples as preliminary to the prepared ness which the country should aim at. "Most Vital Moment" Colonel Roosevelt began his letter, with expressions of regret at his In abilit.' to be present, and proceeded to speak of the movement as the most vital of the moment for the ultimate honor and welfare of the country. Declaring that preparedness must he of the soul no less than the body, Colonel Roosevelt stigmatized "pros perity-at-any-price, peace-at-any price, safety-first instead of duty first, the love of soft living and the get rich-quick theory of life" as the things that will destroy America, if accepted. "Citizenship must mean an undivid ed loyalty to American," he said. WHEAT MARKET BROKE Chicago, Jan. 27. Severe breaks in the price of wheat resulted to-day from heavy selling duo largely to peace rumors. The sharpest decline was in the May option which fell in some cases more than seven cents, touching 174',4 as against 181 % to ll% at yesterday's linlsh. Uemarkable absence of export buying contributed in a notable way to the weakness. JANUARY 27, 1917. will give concerts at Chanxbersbupg, Frost burg, Md.. Connellsvllle, Butler, Pittsburgh.

Echoes of Thursday night's turbulent caucus of Senate Democrats and failure yester day of the Steering committee to agree on a program for the few remaining weeks of this session emphasized the serious entanglements over legislation which threaten either to force an ex tra session of Congress or abandon ment until next winter of several im portant administration measures. It became known that the threats and counter-threats followed in quick succession in the caucus when it was proposed to put certain bills on the legislative program to the exclusion of others. Railroad labor legislation urged by the President, was one target for at tack, particularly tbo strike prevention feature, although it generally was agreed that some form of legislation on this line should be enacted before adjournment. In fact, some adminis tration leaders believe that failure to do so would furnish the only possible motive for the President to call an extra session. Southern Senators Aroused The Corrupt Practices bill was vig orously opposed by Southern Sena tors, who declared they would not yield to Federal control of elections proposed in the measure. They will submit various amendments, but champions of the bill already are op posed to the proposed changes and there seems little prospect for final action at this session if any other measures are to be enacted. There still is wide disagreement over watci power bills, and several Progressive Republicans have given notice that they will talk until March 4 against the Webb bill, to permit col lective foreign selling agencies for do mestic corporations, if it is pressed for a vote. The Flood Control bill also is in almost hopeless dispute, i Some administration leaders said that, in their opinion, revenue legis lation, some form of railroad labor regulation, a mineral lands leasing bill and the regular appropriations event ually would constitute all that could be accomplished before adjournment. If this much can be done they do not believe the President would call an ex tra session, in view of the uncertainty of organization in the next House. Show Will Be Most Attractive of Local Events "More space for the auto show" is the cry, but no more is available. Every foot has been allotted, but other applicants are desirous of securing representations. Even though there is about 7,000 more square feet than usual, the show is growing year by year beyond the capacity of any avail able building. To-morrow men will be put to work by J. Clyde Myton painting the entire first floor a pure white. Collars of laurel will sur round the columns and streamers of laurel will trail down the white pillars. The entire color scheme will be white and green. One hundred palms will be placed along the aisles and standards with ! tl.e names of the various cars will be | features this year that will add to the ! attractiveness of the exhibit. The 1 aisje space is greater than in other | years, affording greater comfort to j the public and permitting a better 1 arrangement of exhibits.
