White' House and after a talk with
President Taft, Senator Clapp, of Min
nesota, expressed the' opinion that an
extra session of . Congress could not
now be avoided,: owing to the crowded
condition of things in the Senate, the
opposition to certain measures -and lack
of time for the properconsideration of
important measures that a number of
Senators' Insist shall not- be .rushed
through without proper investigation.
The statement - isgoing the rounds
that Senator 4a Follette is protesting
loudly agains the passage in the House
iii a- Bingle day of three: appropriation

Th? Wisconsin insurgent is' said to
hav served notice that these measures
must Dot only be i carefully considered
by Senate committees before' they are
reported, but- he and his political", as-..
eociates intend that they shall be look
ed into'carefnlly and - discussed after
the bills are taken op in the Senate,
Altogether the situation "affords, am
