INDIANA CONGRESSMEN

All Voted Against Mileage Graft Except J. 11. Peterson. Washington, April 4. the exception of Representative Peterson, all the Indiana representatives present when the house voted, late yesterday, to retain the ‘‘mileage graft” of 20 cents a mile for congressmen, opposed the measure. Representative Lieb, Adair, Barnhart, Dixon and Moss were even in favor of striking out all mileage allowances, while the others urged a redueiton in the present rate. The absentees, were Korby, Cline, Culp and Gray. Members of the diouse today continued to enjoy free baths at the capitol without any fear, if they ever had any, that this privilege would be cut off. Any doubt that may have existed regarding the matter was removed by the action of the house yesterday in voting to retain the item in the legislative, executive and judicial appropriation bill providing for baths and bathing attendants for senators and representatives. During the debate on the question the house was aroused to laughter by Representative Bryan, of Washington, who demanded to know why it was that the house appropriated $2,200 for washing 433 representatives and $4,000 for bathing ninetysix senators. Chairman Johnson, in charge of the bill, quick to see the facetiousness of the remark, made no response to the question. For years there has been some opposition to the free bath privilege on the ground of economy.
