Writer Washington, Dee. 23 —The House of Representatives is jealous of the Senate’s gweller ofljee building—swel led, that is to say, than the repre senattves’ own. That's no joke. The average repr resentativeresents the fact that each senators hse a public outer office and an inner private one, while he has only one, for himself and whatever 'Casual rabb'e may drift in. Some tepresentatives have partitions putin (hut that craps their room. Such is the whole explanation of the proposal to spend $7,000,000 on t new office building for the lower house. The present one is all right except in comparison with the Sen ate’s. » There may be a bit of sound reason ing behind the represenatives 'anxiety for as classy quarters as anybody else. Cali on a senator and you get the impression that lie’s a big man. He isn't iq sight, in the first place. He’s in majestic seclusion behind that mas sive private office door. An ante chaiuberful of suitors wait without, upon the invisible statesman’s word. You have to plead with bis secretary for an audience. By the time you get to him you feel you’ve accom plished something. This must be a flighty important individual. - But a representative!— yo» walk right into his office without knock in* and there he is, a mere ordinary hulnan being, like yourself. Nobody cools ids beels it a representative’s door. He hasn’t any door he can keep shut.

Dec.. 23—The sit uation which caused imposition of the recent expres embargo in Florida, “is unprecedented in the history of the whole conntry,’’ ft. Hudson Barr, chairman of the railroad commission, declared in a sthtement made public today. The embargo, however, Mr. Burr declared, was justifiable and unavoid able because of the congestion at Jacksonville, where, he stated, he per sonally found conditions “even great er than was stated when the embargo w»s placed." “Tliore were approximately 50 car loads of mail in the terminal at that time,” Mr. Burr said, “nearly all of which had to be unleaded, reclassified and loaded again for various destina tions both in and out of Florida, the volume being so great that solid steel freight cars had to be used to load package mail for digerent routes and destinations. “The express company had in <ars and on the platforms around 300 cars of express matter inbound for Florida and outbonnnd for all points, and the ene box or small shipment lots of cit rus fruit for outbound movement to all party of -the United States was so great that it was neeessary to use great strings of refrigerator cars to load solid for special expedited serv Ice ou t.of Jacksonville terminal for northboun anti west, the supply of express cars being and the volume being too great to be car ried on regular passenger trains. This was being done irt order to get this fruit out of the terminal and to desti nation without loss. “The express company jras work ing on their platforms 800 men, @OO negros an<j 200 whites, the work be ing carried on throughout the 24 hours. “It was not only impracticable but impossible under these circumstances to permit further shipments to be made through the gateway until the express company g»t rid of a sub stantial portion of the accumulation. A freat deal of this accmulation was business that ought to go by freight but which had been split into smaller units and shipped by express. “The superintendent of the express company stated that he would have such shipments as could be handled in out through other gateways, but of course, other gateways have facili ties for handling only normal busi ness and therefore no more-could be handled in this way than the facili ties would properly protect, “The commissioners conferred last night with Superintendent Buckner of the fxpress company at Jackson ville to ascertain what headway had been made in reducing the aceuinula -1 tion, and what relief might be ex pected.
