RqT wijhahhon er t Committee; Job - Uncle Joe in Mood to Retire In-luTg-ent from Banking and Currency Committee. WASHINGTON, April 12, -There IB much tieulstton concerning the now committee on banking and currency which will be ap pointed by Speaker (,'annon, along with other committees of the house, probably on the last day of a special session. It la freely predicted , -that .the speaker will re organise the committee from the head to foot. Inasmuch as the Aldrlch commercial paper bill enacted Into law by the Sixtieth congress' Is regarded ti i temporary meas ure it la expected the new committee will he culled upon to solve Jtnportant financial Questions and assignment to it are an xiously sought. Representative Charles N. Fowler of New Jersey- has heen chairman of the commit tee for several years. Vtit some time, how ever, he has been In ahaip conflict with Speaker Cannon. Mr. Fowler's reappoint ment as chairman ' ot the committee two years ago was the subject of much con sideration. Since that time Mr. Fowler haa done little to heal the breach between him self, and the Speaker. The New Jersey member was the only republican who an nounf'VhVflmnTrrto '-surceed -"Mr: Cannon as' the apeaker of the Sixty-first congress. The fact that he did not make a campaign fur the position was not due t any re gard for the ambitions of Mr. Cannon, It Is understood. Mr. Fewler was one of the 'insurgents" who-'caused so, much trouble for tfl a. Republican- organisation In the fight over-th'adprioh of the rules of the house. However, Mr. Fowler's high standing as sn authority on ftnsnce, and his general ability.' may" again prove factors strong enough to retain the chairmanship for him. tf the apeaker decides to reorganise the committee. It is believed he will select Representative Edward B. Vreeland of New York to head It. Mr. Vreeland has never 'been a member of the committee, hut he ' aohteved signal honor a year ago ly procuring the passage through ths house of a bill he had drafted on the currency nu'idon which was later superseded by the Aldrlch bill. Speaker Cannon then made him chairmen of the house delegation on the monetary commission which Is ln-t-estigatlng the currency question.

April U-(Spec1sl.)-A contest case from Faulk county In the local land office here has points In It which will be of Interest to more than one holder of government land. The contest was brought on the ground that the claim ant at the time he tiled was the owner of 2t acres of land, which, in fact, would disqualify him for making a filing. His defense la that he did own the land prior to making the filing, but disposed of It In March and made his filing In April. The deeds, though, were not made out until some time In May on account of delay In some manner, but he contends that ths sale wss mads before he filed.

J. S. Johnson, proprietor of ths roller rink snd a formsr. resident of 8!"ux City, wss the intended victim. He made good his escape from ths mob, however, through s rear window of the rink. The provocation was the striking of Ralph Merts, a U-year-old boy, In the forehead with a hammer. Merts !sy unsonsclous for three hours, lie sus tained a fractured skull snd still lies In h serious condition with the danger present that he may suffer. a hemorrhage or a con tusion ot the brain. Johnson has been having trouble with a certain set of boys ever since he came here last fall. Saturday night he slapped a boy named Smith and when the latter started for him. he struck st him with tho hammef, but Instead hit Merts a glancing blow. The latter. was an lnnoncent by stsnder, having taken no part In the alter cation, that ths blow wss glsncing prob ably saved the boy's life. Bystanders grssped Johnson snd he was terribly beaten, when the crowd turned their atten tion to the wounded boy. This wss John son's opportunity to get away and he locked ths door on - them, later escaping through a window. When It was seen that Merts was In a serious condition, a rush was made for Johnson.

' TARIFF BILL IS , BEFORE SENATE (Continued irst FMge.). mem iinnucn, remains crscticallv un changed from existing laws, but where re ductions were msde by the house, th, senate committee hss restored the Dlngley rates, In response to ths demands of farmer, throughout the country and of the repre sentatives of the great agricultural Inter ests.

"Ths senats hss returned cocoa to the free list, believing sn article of such gen eral consumption, both as a beverage and In all forms of chocolate, should no mors be msds dutiable than tea or coffee. The committee felt that If It was necessary to Increase revenue it could be done better on luxuries than on the every day neces saries of life, snd hsve pursued this policy in the construction of this bill. "Ths sensee committee has applied ths same principle to spices, snd hss restored them to the free list, where they have sl ways been.

"The senate committee has restored the rstes in the wool schedule to ths rates of the present law.

It has also left open for further action the question pf the duties on -coal and hides. "It would be Impossible in a brief state ment to review sll the articles under the heeding of sundries. The changes from the house bill In the main are of minor Importance., The senate committee has made reductions of 15 per cent on average in the specific duties on hats and bonnets, which the house has raised In some in stances above the Plngelry rates. The sun ate haa also struck out tho houae para graph in regard to glovea and has restored the rates in the existing law. The senate committee has also added to the sundries vt the dutiable list foreign built yachts owned by American citizens, which seemed to the committee a luxury which might fairly pay a duty of 35 per cent. .

In the free 1IM which is of great general Interest, and that la the provision In regard to free list. The house wisely made paintings snd sculptures more than twenty years old free, and the senate com mittee haa added to these works of art generally. Including artistic antiquities more than 100 years old. "The senate committee lias taken no ac tion aa yet upon the maximum and mini mum provisions or the administrative suc tions of the bill. It proimses to report Its amendments to these most Importsnt fea tures of the act at a later date. It has adopted this course because it has seemed to the senats committee of the highest Im portance to secure immediate action upui the tariff and it felt confident that tlm could be sayed by reporting the section Imposing duties first, and the maxlmun snd minimum snd administrative feature later."
