republican conference. Likewise, It
was said that lie had not discussed
tile procedure with members of the
Insurgent bloc and conseiiuenUy had
formed no specific program of action.
It was added, however, that as prevl
ously announced, the senator would
continue his fight for what was char
acterized ns progressive legislation.
When the gavels fell in ihe house
and senate promptly at noon today
there were the usual opening day
i rowds in the galleries. Mrs. Cool
id.ge and a party of the friends oc
cupied the president's row in the sen
ate gallery.
Three Vacant Seals.
Thera were three vacant seats In
ihe senate because of the passing
from the stage of life of three of the
most familiar faces in that body—
Senators Henry Cabot Lodge of
Massachusetts, Frank B. Brandegee
of Connecticut and ]>baron B. Colt
of Rhode Island.
Two of these scats later were filled
by the swearing in of new members,
William Butler, to succeed Senator
I.odge, and Jesse H. Metcalf, to suc
ceed Senator Colt. A thfr dnew sen
ator. Rice W. Means of Colorado, also
took the oath of office administered
by Senator Cummins as the president
prn-tenipore . Means succeeds Alva B.
Adams of Colorado, who was defeated
in the recent election.
After Senators Curtis of Kansas,
the republican leader, and Robinson
of Arkansas, the minority leader, had
been named to the joint committee
on notification of the president, the
senate adopted resolutions on the
death of Senators I.odge, Colt and
Brandegee and then adjourned out
of respect to their memories.
Jones Is Party Whip.
Senator Wesley T„ Jones of Wash
ington, was selected by Senator Cur-1
tls as party whip.
IWth the one exception, in the adop
tion of the Wilson memorial resolu
tion, the house procedure was iden
tical. Four new members were in
stalled, the republican and democratic
leaders, Longworth of Ohio and Gar
l-ett of Tennessee were named to the
notification committee and resolutions
of respect to the dead members—Rep
resentatives Green of Massachusetts,
Little of Kansas and Mudd of Mary
land, all republicans, adopted.
Adjournment then was taken out of
respect to their memories.
On Ihe roll calls there were 10 sb
sentees in the senate and one in the
house. One vacancy in the house,
that caused by the death of Senator
Brandegee, is yet to be filled, while
the member appointed to the house
failed to appear to take the oath of
office. He Is John C. Allen, repub
lican, Illinois.
KepubMcaiis I.ead.
Am a result of elections to fill va
cancies, the democrats made a net
gain of one in tlie house, a democrat
succeeding to tHe vacant scat in Mary
land. A republican, however, took
over one seat in the senate that had
been held by a democrat.
With one vacunt republican seal
In the senate, ttie lineup there now
is. republicans. 50; democrats, 42. and
farmer labor, 2.
When Representative Allen takes
his seat the house lineup will 1 - :

farmer-labor, 1; socialist, 1. and indc

This leaves the republican In
surgents still holding the balance of
power in each house.
The passing of old members makes
necessary a realignment of n number
of committees in both houses. The
republican committee on committees
met today and filled vacancies, hut
withheld Its report pending its sub
mission to a republican conference to
be called for Wednesday. Senator
Robinson was authorized by the
democratic committee on committees
to fill democratic vacancies.
The vacancies on house committees
will be filled within the next week or
so. The chairmanship of only one
major house committee, that on mer
chant marine, is to lie filed.
Many New Chairmen.
In ihe senate new chairmen must
be named to half a dozen Important
committee*,'the principal one* being
foreign relations, Judiciary and im
migration. Senator William E. Bn
rah of Idaho will succeed Senator
Lodge as head of foreign relations
committee, while Senator Johnson of
California will succeed Senator Colt
as chairman of the immigration com

and Is ns comfortable as a light, gar

sons to throw away trusses and de

Many of these had serious double rup
tures, from which they had suffered
for years. It Is Dr. Andrews' ambi

enjoy the quick relief, comfort and
healing power of ld» discovery, and
he will send It on free trial to any

reports from that committee, particu
larly those dealing with prohlbilion
matters.
One feature of the opening of this
session was the absence of the usual
flood of bills and resolutions. There
was no opportunity fpr their pre
sentation in the senate. About 25
public bills and upwards of Opri
vate measures were proposed ill the
house.
Before congress met President Cool

groups of senators to lie ilia guests

day included Senator Curtis, the ma
jority leader; Watson of Indiana, the
assistant majority leader, and the

and Hogs Removed.
The Omaha Livestock exchange and
Nebraska stock shippers were vie
Lorloua Monday In a battle before the
date railway commission at Lincoln
a remove vexatious rates on mixed
shipments of cattle, sheep and hogs.
Tlie commission's decision upheld
lie exchange and the Nebraska Farm
Bureau federation in their contention
hat the new system of assessing

gust 24 under the Bock law was un
'nir, and ordered that the rates be
issessed on a schedule fixed by the
rommission.
According to A. F. Stryker of the
ininha Livestock exchange, who pre
>ared the complaint, the decision will
lave thousands of dollars monthly for
Nebraska shippers and will remove a
crievance which has been a constant
lource of irritation to shippers.
The rates objected to fixed the
•harges for carload shipments in
vhleh cattle and hogs or sheep were
ihipped in the same car, and greatly
iu l eased the rates on shipments of
logs or sheep in which were included
u or two calves or beef cattle. The
ieiision of the commission fixes the
ninimuin weights for carload ship
lients in each of the different classes.
Stryker said Monday that claims
imountlng to thousands of dollars,

after that and had naked a friend to
atop tn to see how his wife was. He
told how, unable to stay away longer,
iie returned home just in time to meet
friends bringing his wife back from
the doctor's office, where she had
been rushed after collapsing ill the
Iwck yard.
"i didn't feel then as though I had
committed murder.” Bruner said. "It
seemed to me more as though I was
suddenly free. I remember thinking
that within a few months I could
marry Ardesta and we could be
happy.
"After I had a chance to think
things over It began to seem worse.
I worried a bit I guess. Kvery time
thHt I met any friend on the afreet I
imagined that he looked at me as
though he knew of my guilt.
Confessed Voluntarily.
"Then when I was arrested. That

that one was.
"I didn't confess because the coun
ty attorney or the sheriff made me.
I confessed because it just seemed so
useless to keep on.
"Ardesta Isn't to blame. She gave
me the poison and told me how to
use It. I might never have done It
If it hadn't been for her. But she Just
wanted me to he free. She didn't
think.”
Bruner has made up his mind that
only death In the electric chair will
alone for his crime, and with this
thought In mind he appears to be
bearing his cross as history relates
