CONGRESSMAN IN QUANDARY Iowa Idea in Nebraska is Case of Now You Gee it and Now Ton Don't. BLAIR P0ST0FFICE UPSETS THINGS Irulor Millard Will Introdare Pill Providian for a (oirlrrmaar'i Sapply Depot to Be Lo cated at Omnhn. iFroln a 8taft Correspondent.) WASHINGTON. March $l.-(8pecial Tele gram.) Th fact that Senators Millard and Burkett took a quiet, but exceedingly ef fective hand In the Blair pnetofll" fight has caused some members of the Nebraska delegation to wonder If the so-called "Iowa Idea" of dispensing patronage Is really a flesh and blood agreement, or a "spook" to be "shooed" away at the option of the senators. It will be recalled that after much dis cussion over th district attorneyship and marahalship vacancies, created by the re moval of Judge Baxter and Mr. Matthews, the whole Nebraskardelegntion was invited by Senator Millard, as dean of the delega tion, to participate In the selection of their successors. At that meeting the "Iowa Idea" of filling vacancies waa debated at length and adopted. This '-'Idea" gives the senators one vote each on every propo sition, together with the representatives Interested. That Is to say, should a vnc ancy occur In the North Platte section then the representatives from the North Plalte section. Including the senator, would decide on the succession. Of course, this did not happen In Mr. Goss' case, for every body took a hand in his selection, but that is the theory of the "Iowa Idea." t'nder the "Iowa Idea" the senators abso lutely keep their hands olt the postmasters ships. In Nebraska the senators have tacitly told the members ff the house, through their action In the Blulr case, that they must be consulted and if the ni;in ordered established April IS at rrlueetnn, Lancaster county, Neb., serving VO people and eighty houses.

Shortly after the departure of President Cassatt, W, G. Brown, secre tary of the Philadelphia & Beading Coal and Iron company, waa summoned by Mr. Baer. Most of th statistics bearing on the mining operations of the Reading com pany are compiled under th direction of Mr. Brown. Neither Mr. Baer nor Mr. C as ha tt would discus the object of their conference. President Baer stated, how ever, that the Reading company would probably keep Its collieries open on Mon day In order to give any miners who de sire an opportunity to go to work. Mr. Baer stated that It was th inten tion of the Reading company to continue the existing coal prices. He said the com pany would make every effort to discourage speculation on the part of the retail deal ers and declared that ths charging of ex orbitant prices by retailers would result In th cutting off of their supply.

In conjunction with President Roosevelt, at the White House today agree on an amendment providing especially for Judicial review of orders of the Interstate Commerce commission. This amendment will be presented on Monday by Senator Long, a pronounced opponent of any amendment which would permit the railroads to obtain a review of a char acter amounting to a retrial pf the merits of the commission's order. Senators Allison, Cullorn, Dolliver, Clapp and Long, Attorney General Moody and Interstate Commerce Commissioners Knapp and Prouty were called to the Whit House late this afternoon. Soon after they as sembled the president submitted th court review amendment that was afterward en dorsed by all present. A number of th conferee previously had seen the draft. but It authorship was not disclosed. Th president announced that he had decided upon the; meeting because he desired to ascertain th present state of feeling In congress regarding a Judicial review feature In the legislation. It waa made clear that he had not changed his views regarding the pending bill, and similar stands wer Uken by th others. The president thought. however, that in deference to lb large number of senators who honestly believed that the bill without such a feature would not be constitutional, the bill should be amended. If It could be done without a surrender of th purposes of the legislation, This could be done, he believed, by an amendment which h then read. Test of th Aueadnaeat. The amendment proposes to strike out the paragraph at tho bottom of page 14, and Insert aa a part of section It the following: That all order of the commission, except orders for the payment of nwiney. shall take effect within such reasonable time as ahull be prescribed by the i-ommUslon and shall continue for such period of time, not exceeding two years, as shall be prescribed In the order of th commission, unless sooner set aside by th commission or sus pended or set aside In a suit brought against the commission in the circuit court of the t'nlted States, sitting as a court of equity for the district wherein any carrier, plaintiff in said suit, has its principal operating office, and Jurisdiction Is hereby conferred on tho circuit court of the United Slates to hear and determine In any such ; suit whether the order complained of wa oejoiiu ine auinoniy or tne commission or In violation of the rights of th carrier secured by the constitution. Discussions of the amendment continued for an hour or more. It was carefully analysed to ascertain whether under Its terms an order of the commission lowering a rata could be delayed In taking effect Attorney General Moody and other lawyer point out -that the discretion of th com mission Is absolute. Without specifically declaring against restraining order It makes It extremely doubtful whether a court would attempt to Interfere with an order except la the manner provided. Beaat Will Accept It. When th president asked whether an amendment of that character would b adopted by the senate th senators present said they thought they could ' promts twenty-nln republican vole for It, and there is little doubt that practically th entire minority would aupport li lt waa agreed that th amendment ahould be effered as soon aa possible.

A letter received today by Senator Mil lard from the Commercial club of Omaha set forth a series of resolutions adopted at a recent meeting urging the Nebraska senators and members to work for the passage of a bill creating a general quar termasters' depot at Omaha. This depot. If established, will make Omaha the dis tributing point for practically the entire west. There are now seven such army depot In existence, the one farthest west being at St. Louis. Senator Millard will Introduce a bill on Monday along the lines suggested by tho Commercial club, carry ing an appropriation of $100,090. Federal C'oart at Graad Island.

Senator Millard today called at the De partment of Justice in regard to the Bur kett bill creating a new Judicial district south of the PU.tte river, which the Junior senator has got through tho senate a few days ago. Senator Millard said the attorney general Informed him he had,tio objection to the measure and he believed the presi dent would sign the bill.
