Coming Session of Congress to Be
Without Excitement.
Tito Men from Iowa Will Continue to
Shape National Legislation
Some Historic Spfktr-
hip Flghta.
Special Washington Letter
BY CONSTITUTIONAL require
ment the congress must convene
unnually on the first Monday in
December; and in compliance with
that mandate of the basic law the
Statesmen are gathering.
Usually at the beginning of a new
congress there is a scramble for the
speakership and the offices of both
the senate and the house of represent
atives; but this year there is no con
tent, no excitement, no indication of
acrimony in any quarter.
The writer has witnessed many or
ganizations of the congress, and re
members well the contests which re
sulted in the elections of Randall, Car
lisle, Iteed and Crisp to the speaker
ship. In those days the adherents of
the aspirants for that high honor
were busy by day and by night during
the two weeks preceding the conven
ing of the eongrets, The older mem
bers were carefully watching the rail
road depots and the hotel registers,
either personally or by proxy, in or
der to gHther in the new members and
secure their votes in caucus for their
favorites.
In November, 1 SSrt, the democrats
had a majority of the house of repre
sentatives and the great contest was
between ex-Speaker Sam Randall and
.1ohn (i. Carlisle, resulting in the se
lection of Carlisle. It was the first
great battle inside of the democratic
party between the protectionist and
free trade elements. William it. Mor
rison, of Illinois, was the leader of the
Carlisle faction, and his successful
management naturally caused his sub
sequent selection for the chairman
ship of the committee on ways anil
menas. In that capacity a free trade
hill was formulated by him, and it
was well known as the Morrison b!fl.
It was a celebrated measure, and all of
the newspapers gave columns upon
columns to its discussion. So fleeting
is fam", however, that the name of
neither Morrison nor Carlisle is now
known to the average reader of daily
newspapers.
The next great speakership contest
was at the beginning of the Fifty-first
congress, in November, 1889, when
Heed, of Maine; McKinley, of Ohio;
Burrows, of Michigan; Cannon, of Illi
nois, nnd Henderson, of Iowa, were
the leading candidates. Mr. Iteed was
selected, and McKinley was made
ehairman of the committee on ways
and means. A protectionist bill was
framed which became celebrated a
the McKinley bill. That measure was
rejected by the people in 1890, nnd Mc
Kinley was defeated for reelection to
congress. It is a singular fact that
out of McKinley's defeat for the
speakership and his defeat for reelec
tion grew his presidential opportuni
ties. He was twice elected governor of
Ohio, in which position he served with
out flaw or blemish. The fame of the
McKinley bill did not die. Thus he be
came the champion of protection, and
his party kept him to the front until
finally he was made president of the
republic. Very well might he have re
peated Tennyson's popular lines:
"I hold It truth with htm who sings
"ho one rlear harp In divers tones;
That men may rise on stepping stonea
Of their dead selves, to higher things."
The next great speakership contest
was in November, 1891, w hen Crisp, of
Georgia; Mills, of Texas; McMillin, of
Tennessee, and Springer, of Illinois,
were the leading candidates for that
honor. The writer was in the room of
the committee on appropriations that
evening, when Springer, of Illinois,
concluded to withdraw in favor of
Crisp; and that brought about the se
lection of Crusp. with the subsequent
appointment of Springer to the chair-
HON. JOSEPH H. MILLARD.
(Ob of the New United States Senators
from Nebraska.)
manship of the committee on ways and
meant.
Some time in May, 1889, Speaker
Reed declared his intention of re
signing from congress, and that
opened another fight for the speaker
ship in which Henderson, of Iowa;
Hopkins, of Illinois; Sherman, of
New York, and Bingham, of Pennsyl
vania, were the candidates before the
republican caucus; but it was all over
before the congress convened, ami
Henderson was chosen. That is an
Interesting story, and it has never
been told before. Here arc the facts;
During the six months preceding
March 2, 1890, Henry Casson, ex-secretary
of state of Wisconsin, was a
candidate for the position of director
of the QenaUS. Mr. Hopkins, of Illi
nois, was chairman of the commit tec
on the census. The Wisconsin men

;d Mr. Hopkins tc act us cl
In urging Cassrvn's appointment; but
Mr. Hopkins declined to exert his in
fluence in that manner, and on March
2. 1S99, Mr. Merriam, of Minnesota,
was appointed director of the census.
In June following, when the Kpeaker
sbip contest was being waged, it was
a question whether the great west
would support Hopkins, of Illinois, or
Henderson, of Iowa. The Wisconsin
members gathered in Milwaukee to
decide for whom they would vote for
the speakership. It was the recollec
tion of the refusal of Mr. Hopkins to
support Mr. Casson for the census
directorship, and the keen recollec
tion of the fact that Mr. Henderson,
of Iowa, had diligently supported Mr.
Casson. that was mainly Instrumental
in influencing the Wisconsin con
gressmen to decide in favor of Hen
derson; nnd thnt settled it. The en-

The contest for the speakership of
two years ago will not be repeated.
Speaker Henderson will be chosen
without opposition by the republican
caucus, and will be elected; because
the republicans have a large majority
in the house of representatives. This
admitted fact accounts for the quiet
and apparent apathy in political cir
cles at this time. The democratic
mlnoritv will choose Hon. James D.
Kichardson, of Tennessee, and all of I
the members of that party will vote
for him. This ts not an empty honor.
The man who is chosen as the leader
Of the minority at this time will tacit- j
l.v retain his leadership until such
time as the democrats shall have a
majority; and then, if he lives, Mr.
Richardson will undoubtedly be chos
en for the speakership. Therefore, it
is that Mr. Richardson seeks and will
receive the nomination of his party,
because he is looking; to the future
for his preferment. Wise men in the
political world muat have the sa
gacity to peer into the coming yenrs,
and "learn to labor and to wait."
There will be no political contest
of any kind in the organisation of the
senate. That body always has a
"president pro tempore," whose duty
it is to preside during the absence
or inability of the vice president to
perform his functions. When the lust
congress adjourned Vice President
Itaosevelt was the presiding officer of
the senate, and Senator Frye, of
Maine, was the presiding officer pro
tempore. Inasmuch as the senate is
a continuing body, and does not need
reorganization every two years (as
the house of representatives does)
Senator Frye will take the gavel and
call the senate to order, without the
intervention of a caucus or other
parliamentary machinery.
Because the senate is a continuing
body, it will not be neeessary to elect
sergeant at arms, secretary or other
officers. The senate, in January, 1900,
elected its officers, and they will con
tinue to serve until such time as the
present minority shall have a ma
jority, when complete changes will
occur in all of the prominent official
positions.

17, The senate ma ority always ree-
ognizes its oldest members, those
loneest in continuous service, as
leaders.
Because of these diverse conditions
in the two bodies comprising the con-
gress, a singular condition is now pre
sented. Senator Allison, of Iowa, is
chairman of the committee on ap
propriations, chairman of the steer
ing committee which shapes legisla
tion, and chairman of the majority
mucus. Reennse of his 24 venrs of
continuous service, he is the recog-
nized leader of the senate in all
things.
Thus, by reason of events which
seem to have shaped themselves, two
men from Iowa, Senator Allison and
Speaker Henderson, both of them not
only from the same state, but also
from the same county, and from the '
same city, Dubuque, have marvelous
power in the congress. The one j

Maeh la Qnest of the Fresh

The queerest fad of a millionaire
globe trotter is that of John K. Hamp
ton, of Liverpool. He made his mil
lions on the corn exchange and holds
the golden key to the world's pleas
ures. Yet he spends his life chasing
the strawberry, says the Cincinnati
Knquirer.
When he was working night and day
amassing gold he found that a plate
of really fresh strawberries and
cream was the finest delicatessen he
could have. Fortune smiled on him in
1891, and the following year found him
so wealthy that further work would
have been madness. It was early Sep
tember and he went at once to Cairo,
where fresh strawberries can b ob
tained during that month. Since that
date he has regularly followed the
late spring, and so the strawberry,
ftom Cairo to Algiers, from Algiers
up through Spain from south to north,
and likewise through France. Then,
in early May. when the strawberry
season In that country is finishing, he
crosses to the Channel Isles and
phases the smiling fruit across to
Cornwall, generally landing in Eng
land in the middle of June. His trip
finishes in Scotland at the end of Au
gust, when he takes a through ticket
back to Cairo, and so commences his
tour again.

How Smoke Travels.
A dim, dry fog -prevalent in Ger
many, known as the Hohrauch, has
been traced for a distance of 130
miles from its supposed source with
out great diminution of its' intensity
or distinctive smell. It is commonly
attributed to the extensive burning
of peat in North Germany, where the
tillers of the soil will at certain sea
sons hoe up the rank growth of their
fields and burn it on a large scale. A
haze of a very similar description has
been observed in New England and
Upper Canada; so also, according to
Livingstone, in the Bnrotse valley:
the cause in all cases being1 assigned
to the extensive burning, often at a
great distance, of grass or forest tim
ber. The self-same results must be
