Representative Townssnd of Michigan to 1111111 charge 01 tne as ministration railroad bill on tha floor of tha House will not gratified tha honor going to Chairman Mann ot tba Committee on Interstate and Foreign Commerce Thla fact developed today and supporters of tha bill In tha form tn which It waa originally Introduced by Representative Townaand aa It now la pending In tha Bcnata ara great ly disappointed It haa been thought tha lntenee op position of Mann to certain featuraa of tha bill aa drafted by Attorney GeneralGeneral Wlckersham would make him dla Inillned to champion It Hie aucceae In Incorporating many of hie own Ideae into the meaaure however made Mann willing to aaauma the sponsorship Aa amended by the committee all Republican membera voted for it and there Was no way In which the chairman could be denied the management of tha meaeure on tha floor SPECIAL COURT OPPOSED Mann waa particularly oppoeed to tha provision for the creation ot a c6urt of commerce and thla wae retained only through tha peraonal forte of the Freeldent Whether Mann will seek to eliminate thla provision on tha floor la not known He la aald to be aa etrongly oppoeed to It aa aver but hi ablectlone ara confined to the belief that the establishment ot tha new court Involve unnecessary expense In view of the fact that President Taft la eo firmly In favor of the court It la not thought Mann will make anr move tor Its elimination from tha hill The Administration le looking to the Senate to save the principal features of the original bill Supporting the Freeldent In thle matter are Senators Klklna Aldrlch Kean Crane Cullom and Nixon of tha Committee on Inter atate Commerce as well as many other Republican leaders Vlgoroue assaults upon the meaaure have been made by 8enatora Cummins and Clapp and It Is known they will have the support of many other Insurgent Republlcana as well aa of many Democrata IKSURGEITS ARE3 A FACTOR That the coalition of Insurgent Republicans and Democrata Js formidable la admitted by frlende ot the bill and they ara now giving their attention to the formulation of amendments which they hope will harmonise eoma of the differences Wlckereham haa met with tha frlende of the bill on several occasions and haa given them his assistance In framing amendments At one time It waa planned to have theaa amendments drafted and pre ented by Chairman Elklns That plan has been abandoned and It la now ex pected the amendments will be par celled out among other Senators a a number may share the credit of mak Ing tha new law This scheme evei Includes the acceptance of one or two of the amendments favored by the In aurgenta Not tha allghtest consideration Is be lag given by the Senate to the attitude ff the House on the bllL The chances ara when a conference Is held the two measures aa paased will reeemble each other very little That being the case the act will have to be made In con Terence It le clear that the Senate Conferees will be strengthened by the Influence of the White House More force la being exerted by Ben ate leaders to carry out President Taft a vlewa on tha railroad bill than on any other administration measure It would surprise no one If the con aervatlon measuree ahould go over until another session It la also certain there la a hard road ahead of the atatehood bill although the Demo cratlo Senators have given aome Indl catlena of demanding an agreement that a vote be had on the atatehood bill aa the price of giving an open road to the railroad meaaure CONTEST OVER NAVY BILL Approprltlon bills ara being paased By SPECIAL CORRESPONDENT IT Bnrlla by the Senate about as rapidly as they re received from the House The spirit of retrenchment which haa a Arm hold In the Senate committee pre eludes the enlargements of the bills to any extent The naval approprla tlon bill la before the House now and there la In prospect a sharp contest over the queatlon whether there ahall be conatructed two big battle ehlpa or oniy one aa me minority or the committee favora A similar fight will be made the Senate where many favor cutting down the appropriations for the navy and array The postal sarlnga bank bill la expected to come out of the House com mittee within a few weeks Thar Is considerable ssntlment In favor of amending It ao as to Insure tha keen ing ot funda In banka In the vicinity where collected If the row between the rea ulsra and Insurgent Republicans le at an end as leadera of both factlona profess to be Have It would appear that Congress tnay be expected to adjourn about June lath There are Indications however that the Area of the recent contest are smoldering end may break out at any moment Considerable talk Is heard about eliminating annon from the Speaker hip and 011 haturday the Idea waa advanced that Asher Hinds the par Hementarlan of the Houee might be favored for that place The Democrats are vehement la their declarations that they will carry the next House and It Is not known how they would feel about the selection of a non member for the Hpeaker hip Neither Is It known I ow Hinds would feel about giving up his ion test lor a aeat in the House for an honor that might be comparatively short In view of tha fate of the liurleeon reseiution wnicn was designed create a vacancy members might tata to renew such a motion The Whole subject nevertheless Is

and played with the beat that waa In them thla afternoon with the Invaders aa their opponenta once more Their determina tion was aa etrong aa the bulletin notice but they could not win Granting all the Ifa and ends joined with tha possible lapses of luck that flow from the llpa of tha enthusiasts tn after dinner discussions the simple fact re malna that they were outclassed The team work and beautiful position play of the English four combined with their finely executed strokes again brought them home a victory Time and again Burllngama would assault the goal of tha vleltors only to have the tld ot battl turned by the atubborn defense Or again a run would be started which would look especially dangeroua only to be halted by the fact that three of the Invaders would calmly bo awaiting the ball really to speed th aphere toward the red and blue goal MATCIt PLAYED Vi SHOWERS The match waa played In fitful showers ot rain but tha aandy soil of the local HAJd had absorbed the vast amount of water that fell handily and the turf waa In Ana shape The attendance was slim You have to hand It to Hobart waa the expression heard time and again during tha match and tha trite phrase was particularly true today The Burllngama player was In grand form and one of the aurest men on the field In his shots To his credit there are recorded any number of fine saves which kept the acore of the Isltors down In attack he made aome magnificent runs and waa eaally a star of the Burllngama quartet Drlscoll waa a bit off In the first two periods but then came through and played a rattling game He atood the pace well and It waa especially hard for him aa he waa all over the field In hi anxiety to have Burllngama notch goala Lawion did better possibly than In his previous matchee but waa again slow to get Into action A flash ot good work would bs followed by a number of beginners misses Tobln waa out of place as a one and although he played herd Lee had many chances to auccesafully get away from the Burllngama player whose regular poattlon la back WINNERS IN FINH FORM Gills team la far and away the best that has ever come to this State At times their work was a revelation to the spectators Working like the component parts of a delicate piece of machinery there were no attempts at spectacular play on their part It one of then could not advance It he waa more than willing to leave It to a teammate and do hie best to help him by riding off hard or placing the sphere In a neat position Their all around work put the match well in their handa early and toward the end they seemed to be pulling up a bit The Inadera tore away with the throwing of the first chucker and for half the period kept up a sustained attack Drlscoll a run waa the near eet the red and blue got to the center of the field up to halt time After Hobson a offside and Lees In Bur llngame got going at a rata which caused the hopea of her aupportera to Their one two and three fur nished the meana ot attack but event ually mlaaed a fine chance to notch With the sphere hovering around the goal mouth every member of the State team uncorked a goal shot but all of them failed the period ending without a acore Individual brilliance on the part of Tobln Drlacoll and Hobart came with the second period The back and two defended In fine style but the Invaders shoved up the score board for one goal through a shot of Hurndall a Lawion waa very alow In the next few momenta of play and had aome bad misses chalked against him GUI unloaded neat passes to his ons and two but they both failed to score a few momenta later with tha ball like blushing bride waiting at the church so close to the goal waa It Lawson had a chance to save but waa un equal to It GUI getting away with the aecond acorlng shot In a ruah tha English scored very quickly the honors going to little Hurndall with at cut under hla mount Uwmn Jooerned up during the next minutes snd got Into the game at aoms kind of a pace He halted a run of the English two at mldfield but Lee eoon maintained tha attack with fine driving goal shot Hobart doing the guardian act In fine atyle stemmed ish neatly tha period ending with Ilurllngame still to the bad by three points Especially notable at this time waa the work of Hurndall and GUI In passing Their work waa ao sharp feat and accurate that they at tlmea played circles
