Advanced to Place on Committee on Banking and Currency—List of Assignments.

Special to The Tribune.

WASHINGTON, D. C., Dec. 4.— Committee assignments for the sixtyfourth congress were announced today and the Indiana delegation is conspicuously honored by the number ot important assignments going to that state.

Congressman Ralph W. Moss, of the Fifth district, is made a member of the committee on banking and currency, one of the most important posts that can be given a member of congress. The complete list is as follows

Lieb—Committee on rivers and harbors. Cullop—Committee on interstate and foreign commerce.

Cox—Committee on postofUces and post roads. Gray—Committee on naval affairs.

Moss—Committee on banking and currency, committee on mines and mining, and committee on expenditures ip the department of agriculture.

Adair—Chairman of committee on expenditures in the war department, member of committee on immigration and naturalization, and committee on invalid pensions.

Morrison—Chairman of committee on patents, member of committee on Insular affairs and committee on revision of the laws.

Rauch—Committe on appropriations. Cline—Committee on foreign affairs, committee on elections and committee on census.

Barnhart—Chairman of committee on printing, member of committee on roads and committee on public building and grounds.

At the last minute Representative Dixon, of the ways and means committee, succeeded in capturing two new assignments for Indiana—a place on the committee on public buildings and grounds and a place on the census committee.

The new place on the committee on public buildings and grounds falls to Representative Barnhart, while Representative Cline goes to the census committee assignment.

Representative Ralph W. Moss is advanced from the committee on agriculture to the committee on banking and currency.

Indiana Senators Assigned. The committee assignments of the Indiana senators in the sixty-fourth congress will be as follows:

Shively—Chairman of the pensions committee member of the committees qn~

foreign relations, finance, census, corporations organized in the District of Columbia, educational and labor, library, J^aeiflc railroads, patents and territories total assignments, ten.

Kenp—Chairman of the committee on privileges and elections member of the committees on District of Columbia, geological survey, immigration, pacific islands and Porto Rico, printing and rules total assignments, seven.

The assignments on committees of the Indiana senators will be the same in the sixty-fourth congress as in the sixty-third. Senator Shively's assignments are unusually important and exacting, and it was thought for a time he might give up some of them on account of poor health, but this has been found to be unnecessary.

HUBBY OPPOSES HOUSEWORK.

Prefers Single Blessedness to Sweeping and Doing Cooking. To don an apron and cap, and take upon his shoulders the cares of running a house, were not to the liking of Harry B. Pursell, and he brought suit for divorce, charging cruel and inhuman treatment. He says he does not care to cook his own me^ils, sweep the floors and make the beds. He said his wife, Effle, often went away for long periods of timg» leaving these duties upon him.

EN REALMS OF PAST

SAN FRANCISCO, Cal., Dec.

The

Panama-Pacific international exposition entered tonight into the realm of the past. The gay red and green lights simmered above it for the last time. Thousands made merry, though an-in-stitution was dying in the night. Neath the stars, in the open air of a fair California night, the throngs danced their farewell. Flags that floated proudly to the breeze—not at mast, but boastfully flaunting- San Francisco's accomplishment—came down at sunset as the guns boomed a good-bye salute from the exposition grounds.

The placard was speedily removed, but the squirrel remained aboard, in the custody of a delegate who said it was a bully mascot. He wouldn't give his name.

The dock officers and steamer had their troubles with fanatics. A few minutes before the ship was ready to clesfcr, a dignified man, who told reporters early in the day he was "Mr. Zero," tried to get aboard. He flashed a bundle of papers and proceeded nonchalantly up the gang plank. "Stop," said the officer, and pushed him back.

He protested, but left, propelled by the sturdy arms of two policemen.

RUMANIA WARLIKE.

Actions Indicate Early Entrance Into War With Allies. LONDON, Dec. 4.—Rumania's unexpected action in commajndeering all foreign shipping in her harbors overshadowed every other development in the Balkan situation' tonight.

News of this war-like movement was telegraphed here on the heels of reports from Athens, apparently confirmed in Berlin dispatches that King Constantino was about to give a satisfactory reply to the allies. It gave rise to fresh hopes that Rumania is about to cast her lot with the allies.

The Rumanian legation has no confirmation. Dispatches from two separate sources at Bucharest, however, declared the military authorities published the order today and that it will take effect on Monday. The Rumanian prime minister refused to make any statement other than that the step was taken in the interests of the national defense.

Only a few foreign vessels are now in Rumanian Black seaports. It is be-
