Minority Leader Mann took no committee assignment himself. He is designated simply as 'the chair man of the conference." Uncle Joe Cannon goes back to his old place on the appropriation committee and is ranking minority member; The seven surviving republican members of the ways and means committee retain their places. Representative John Dwight, who ranked eighth among the survivors, is now on appropriations, as the dem ocrats allowed the minority but seven members on ways and means. A number of the house insurgents were made ranking 'minority'. .mem bers of various commutes: Repre sentative Haugiiton of Iowa, stands first among the republicans on t:ie committee on agriculture: Represen tative Cooper of Wisconsin, is rank ing minority man on elections No. S; Prouty of Minnesota, on elections No. 1; Lindbergh of; Minnesota, on claims; Morse of Wisconsin, on war claims: Gardner of Massachusetts, on immigration, and Hubbard of Iowa, on the committee on expendi tures in the department of justice. .

Springfield, O, April 11 -State's At torney l.'urko of .Sangamon county to day announced that lie was ready to open Are on : Kdwnrd Hines or -any other who may be charged with per jury as a result of the disclosures of bribery in the election of William Lor imcr to the Cnited States senate before tho Held Invostigating committee. He said he contemplated bringing- Hlnes before the grand jury when.h conducted the Investigation of legis lative curruption following the con fession of White, Holstlaw, Broderlck and Link. Michael Link, one of the men who confessed that he received J1.000 for his Lorlmer vole,' died in the bath tub of his home In Ed wardsvllle yester day. . ''' The next grand jury will begin oper ations on the first Monday In May. The Jurors have been selected. ' Burke said he did not wish. to appear as- "butting In" on the Helm committee but thut he was watching the case closely and probably would cause a grand Jury Inquiry 'as a result of the testimony given .before the committee, byyH. H. Kohlsaat, publisher of the eftlcago-Hcrald and' Clarence' S. Funk. w "The late developments have g"lven uil a basis on which to work," he as serted. "Before this time, there wus a missing strand of testimony which made convictions in the case practi cally Impossible," ... criminated against under the Cannon regime, are the following: Norris of Nebraska, judiciary com mittee; Cooper of Wisconsin, and Kendall of Iowa, foreign affairs and expositions; Volstead and Pickett of Iowa, public lands: Victor Murdoch, poHtofllces and postroads; Kent, the new California insurgent, civil ser vice and industrial arts and exposi tions.." Tae important rules committee will have on it two of the more rad ical Insurgents Madison of Kansas, and Lenroot of Wisconsin. The reg ulars on the rules committee are John Dalzell of Pennsylvania, and Wilson of Illinois. Representative Woods, Iowa Insur gent, finds a place on the claims committee and industrial arts and expositions. Representative Good of the same state, goes to the big com mittee on appropriations. Representative Theron Akin, of the twenty-fifth New York .-'district , who ran as a democrat, lint w.io ha turned "Independent," has been taken into tiie minority fold. He was rather badly treated, however, his assignments being to the committee on education and that on enrolled bills. Hy agreement between the two parties Victor L. lierger, the only socialist in congress, is given a place on the District of Columbia commit ten and is charged to the minority.. A bill of wide interest to edttca tors, philanthropists, humanitarians and aid societies and associations generally, was Introduced by Koprp sentative Barnhnrdt, of Indiana. T;ie bill provides for the establishment, in the department of commerce and labor, of a bureau to be known as the 'childreus bureau." The bureau shall investigate. and report upon all mat ter pertaining to the welfare of chil dren and child life, and especiallj investigating the questions of infant mortality, of birth rate, physical de generacy, sanitary conditions oi tho delinquency juvenile courts, 'deser tion, '-dangerous occupation, diseases and care of children, employment and such other information as may have a bearing upon the health, effi ciency, character and welfare of hu man life.. When t!e committee assignments have been read the old fight be tween republicans and democrats over the relative proportionment ol majority and minority members on the fifteen leading committees of the house was renewed. Representatives Mann, Gardner, ol Massachusetts, and Miller, of North Dakota, protested along the usual lines that the democrats have acted unfairly in taking a ratio of 2 to 1 on fifteen committees and Represen tative Underwood, democratic lead er, came back with figures to show that there are as many committee places in all for the republicans and the democrats had in the last con gress. ',; . ..- V. .... .. Ex-Speaker Cannon got into the debate and reminded his colleagues that it was no use to kick, as the ma jority party was responsible for the house, its organization and its iegis- ation and they might run it to suit jentBelves because they would be re sponsible for any mistakes. The republicans' have been given the relative number of committee as signments on the smaller commit tees which makes tip their average, but the democrats have increased the majority representation on fif teen other committees. After adopting numerous resolu tions authorizing the chairman of the various committees to have printing andibinding done the house adjourn ed nt 2:30 o'clock until tomorrow noon. . '. Announcement was made from the clerk's desk that the democratic members of the house would hold a caucus tonight in the house chamber. This caucus will consider the legis lative program and it Is expected to authorize that Canadian reciprocity shall be passed ahead of class legis lation. A lively row over house patronage is impending in democratic circles to day. The democrats have discovered that since abolishing 1182,000 worth of patronage that no member will have more than one or two minor jobs at his disposal. This has dis placed several of the new members, especially those who have promised four and five jobs to constituents. An efTort may be made in the caucus to throw aside the entire retrench ment program approved by the ways and means committee.
