' , " . ? ?. rfv* WEEK JN CONGRESS Insurgents Expected to Keep up Hostilities. UNREST EXTENDS TO SENATE. Pate of Several Administration Bills One of the Livest Topics With National Law-Makers. Washington. Special.? No matter how satisfactory an arrangement is made for the selection of the joint committee to investigate the Ballinger-Binchot controversy, the insurgent fight promises to occupy a prominent place in the congressional situation during the week. Dissentions between the insurgents and regulars in the House have occupied the center of the stage for a fortnight. The bickerings have even spread to the Senate wing of the Capitol and legislation there has been at standstill. That there will be a lull in host Hities in the House as soon as the Ballinger-I'inchot committee is appointed is concealed, hut those who are anxious that legislation may proceed without delay or not over sanguine of their efforts to keep the insurgent row in check. They look for renewed outbreaks whenever any quest ion affecti 11 jr tlio Cannon rulers is interjected into the proceedings. Second interest to the discussion of the battle between the Republican organization and the insurgents in the House is the jrossip in both branches of Conirress as to what wil be the fate of the several administration bills to put into force what are known as Taft policies as differentiated from Roosevelt policies. These embrace the proirram for the amendment of the interstate commerce laws, the Sherman anti-trust law. and carrying into effect measures for the conservation of natural resources. Little opposition lias been beard to the administration measures for the strenirt heniim of the interstate commerce act. On all sides ii seems to be conceded that some . rub measure as is proposed by Mr. 'i'aft will be enacted. Several bearimrs of more than ordinary interest are scheduled to take place, or at least be"in. durum the week. There will be the consideration of the interstate commerce bills at both ends of the Capitol, the Mann canal bill before the Senate committee on interoeeanic canals, and the meat inspection question before the House committee on agriculture, Another interesting situation will bi raised in the House committee on expenditures in the Interior Depart* men! by Representative Hitchcock of Nebraska, who will endeavor to substantiate the charges made by him in the House of extravagance in the cttfhduct of land otliees.
