In the latter body the I forces are . dividing over the continued leadership of y Senator Martin, leactionary '.'arid close friend and associate of Thomas F, -Ryan, and against the elevation of Sim mons, of- North Carolina; to the head of the finance committee in the next congress. . Martin - and his reactionary friends are planning to call ' a conference" of - all the men who will be Ddmoctatic senators in the next congress pust as soon as the new senators have been lect in the various states. It ,. will then be proposed that Martin shail.be rechosen as leader of the Democratic side, and shall be empowered to appoint the com mittee on committees, which", in tilrn, will make all the commit tee assignments. It isxactly the same scheme which Underwood , and Clark plan to put through fyi the house by calling a caucus of all Demo cratic members of the present house and the newly elected members of the next house., Having learned of this scheme the Progressives Democratic senators have organized to pre vent' it, and have enlisted twenty two senators to oppose notj only Martin's plan, but also -Martin's re-election as. the Democratic senate leader and the appoint ment of Simmons as chairman of the finance committee. As the Democrats wili have, but forty ight'members'of the next senate it is evident the Progressives will r need to 'obtain the co-operation of onlv three more senators to gain control of the Democratic caucus.

I The examination into the 1 '-rates on plate glass was gone into thoroughly yesterday, the exam I ination lasting through the ..en tire day. Mr. Lynch, ot tne Standard Mirror Co. was the first witness, he made a clear, convincing statement as to the discriminatory condition existing here, in so far as it effected the mirror manufacturing industries. He was follwoed by Mr. Chas. He was followed by Mr. Chas. Ferd Ecker Co., whose testimony was only an added chapter to the flagrant and intolerable discrim ination.' Mayor Tate'a Testimony, Mayor F. N. Tate, who was largely instrumental in present ing the furniture manufacturers case before the commission last lArDril in Hisrh Point before Ex aminer Gibson, gave the court yesterday in a very impressive manner the actual conditions now in existence here, sustaining the position of every manufacturer and shipper here, that the future growth of the industries here was largely dependent upon the rate question. Mr. Anspach Testifies. The testimony offered by -Mr. Anspach, chief of the Traffic Bu reau of the L. S. & M. S. Ry Co. in defence of the proportion of the rate charged by the northern lines was completely shattered on-cross examination. Mr. Clif ton who seemed to have the rate situation pretty well in hand on direct examination was far from convincing in his endeavor to ex plain why the present rates were reasonable. Admitting that a ratt of 30c to Danville, Va., on win dow glass in car load lots from PittsEurg, Pa., was charged for a distance of nearly 600 miles, and producing a revenue of 9.87 mills per ton per mile and that the railway companies were ac tuafly making a profit out of this part of the haul to Hgih Point, yet maintaining that 16c for a distance of 63 miles and earns 50. mills or 5c per ton per mile was not unreasonably high from Danville, Vt., to High Point. His testimony closed the hearing. The complainant companies have won their case with hands down. TWO CASES ON DOCKET The Interstate Commerce Court closed its hearing on plate and window glass last night, arid the complaint of the complainant companies will "be argued by brief before the court at an early date.
