'then n It was a three-cornered Demo--rratic fight; Dun no assailing Harrison on the score of the financial difficulties of I tic cilyduring hi administration; Harrison retaliating with bitterer personalities and charges of vaccila Hon mikI weakness during Dunne's term In office; and both combining their broadsides against Graham, who answered in kind. This parly warfare resulted In a split that, It Is feared, may Rive victory to the Republicans. The JtepiiDlicans, however, were not without their troubles. They had five candidates for the mayoralty nomination in the field, and had to contend vith a strong anti lorimer feeling turning their followers. Alesirle Mer1 1 -im, there ,vero John It.

(American News S rvii ) Chicago. April 3. As a result of the strenuous recruiting of the army and navy in Chicago since the war maneuvers at the Mexican border were begun, sixty-seven Chicago physicians have enlisted and been commissioned first lieutenants. Thirteen others have

qualified and sioned by the

have been senf t

ing with me. To my aching heart which cries for you, answer 'yes' or 'no.' " Miss Swilling confessed, blushingly that she had answered "yes." Some weeks after, Miss Swilling says Scharf abruptly ended his ardent suit, for her heart and declined entirely to redeem his promises. Scharf retorted at the trial that Miss Swilling had proposed marriage to him. "She certainly did," he stated emphatically. "It was like this: She told me she thought we would make a nice looking couple. I quite agreed. Then she asked me w hen I would marry her. I told her to wait until business picked up a bit and I would take the matter up with her. Then suddenly she broke off, after her proposal to me, and began this suit against me for breaking her heart. "Honest, judg?, I never broke any woman's heart. I'm sorry she thought she had proposed and been accepted.

Team Work of Democrats in Preparing Their Program Dazes Public.

(American Xe;vs Servieo)

uasnington, April ;. When con-; gress assembled in special session on Tuesday j.i response to the call of the President, the Democrats of the i!ew; house will luve worked out a ("airly: definite program of congressional ac-' turn for t le next two years. Kver since the adjournment of the old congress on March !. the Wajs and Means committee, which is also the Committee on Committees, and the directing body of the new house, has been at work industriously shaping plans and preparing for the house or-, ganizatio?). j Thus far there have been no hitches1 or materia: differences of opinion among the members of the commit-! tee and there has been witnessed the' surprising thing of fourteen Demo-; crats coming from all sections of the' country, and representing all classes' of people, agreeing and acting in harmony. Moreover, they appear to have adopted a course which will he ap-: proved by their party colleagues in the house. All that the "as and Means committee lias been doing is subject to the action of the Democratic caucus which will be hold tomorrow but it seems now that the program which has been mapped out will! be indorsed without serious difficulty.! It is expected that there will be. here; and there, a miid protest on different questions, but as the leaders seem to' be agreed, it is believed that tiiev will !

bring the rank and file into line. To Be Historical. The special session promises to be interesting and exciting as well as historical. The Democrats will have 227 members in the new house, as against 14G Bepublieans. and of the latter there

They are Lafollette, Cummins. Bristow, Clapp, Poindexter and C.ronna. and as many more near insurgents including Borah. Brown, Crawford, Dixon, Bourne. Tovvnsend and Works. Some of these will go Quite as far as those included in the first h?t. At any time that five insurgents join with the solid Democratic minority they will be able to control the legislation of the senate. Consequently, if the Democrats of the house desire their measures to pass the senate they must be so constructed rs to meet the approval of that number of insurgents who will actually control the balance of power. I'pon many measures it is quite probable that fully a dozen insurgents may be eoumted upon to join with the Democrats. Then there will come the necessity of encountering a Republican President who will have l ie veto power. It is likely that the Democrats of the house will pass some bills which the President will reject, and others which the senate will not stand for. This will be, from their standpoint, good politics, for it will enable them to pn to the country, plead for full control of the government and to say that to enact all of the remedial legislation w hich they desire, there, must be electoil not only a Democratic house, but a Democratic senate and President as well. The Canadian reciprocity agreement wliich precipitated the special session, will. it. is believed, go through without much trouble. The house has put itself on record as being in favor of it, and as the Old Guard in the senate is very much depleted, the President will. undoubtedly, muster sufficient Democratic and Republican votes to pass the measure. Trouble Will Come. The trouble will come, however, when the Democrats tackle the PayneAldrich tariff, law. According to present plans, it is their intention to re-, vise the tariff schedule by schedule. The President, however, is opposed to any tariff revision at this session. He has admitted the injustice on several of the schedules in the Payne-Aldrich bill, but he wants to give the tariff board an opportunity to investigate and report on these schedules. This report, of course, will not be forthcoming before the next session of con-

and the Democratic leaders do

before and after elect tons. The senate amended it so as to limit the publication to a. stated period After elections. Tho new cotvgress will amend it so that the receipts and disbursements of campaign committees, managers

and candidates snail ne made known to the public before election as well us after.

The Democrats of the house will also authorize investigations of the various executive departments for fourteen years and most Democrats believe that they should bo overhauled, to the end Oat if there is any graft it should be exposed. While in some instances there may be no specific charges, or at most vaue ones, the inquiries will be directed for the purpose of house cleaning. The Interior Department in particular is down for renovation. The Democrats will he able to pass resolutions of inquiry, without the nec-essl y of asking the senate to act upon taem. They wil, lie strictly investigations conducted on the part of the houses, and unless it is thought best, to havo joint senate and house investigations, the house can act alone. There seems to be no question also that a resolution will be passed for the submission to the states tor ratification of an amendment to tlie constitu

tion providing for direct election of 1 I'nited States senators. The house

will pas such h resolution without the necessity of debate or division, but the matter will, of course, be discussed much in the senate. With the increased Democratic-Insurgent representative, however, it is believed that the measure which failed in the last congress because of the objectionable Sutherland amendment to the original resolution for direct elections, will command a. two-thirds majority In the senate.

the Democrats, if they are able to hold their forces together, will have comparatively easy sailing. The difficulty wliich they expect is in managing t:ie affairs of the house at the outset with an entire new coterie of Individuals, and not the least of their troubles will be in directing routine matters, because it will be necessary to install an entirely new clerical force. The present house employes have been in office, most of them, for fourteen to sixteen years, and they know the parliamentary ropes. Routine matters have been transacted like clock work. The incoming employes are all untried, and until they get. accustomed lo their duties, it is natural to anticipate that the house procedure may be a trifle confused for a fewweeks. This will make progress at the outset, slow, from a purely parliamen1 tary standpoint. Some of the old employes will be retained until the new ones are "broken in," but as soon its possible they will have to go to make room for hungry Democratic office seekqrs of whom there is a horde. So far as the membership of the house itself is concerned, with their big majority, the Democrats will be able to do almost anything they see fit in the line of reason and good judgment, and the leaders declare that they intend to make use of both. In order to obtain legislation, that is the actual writing of laws upon the statute books, they realize that they will have to trim their sails somewhat to catch the breeze from the senate.

the insurgents might get through the senate. In this event, however, it is believed that the President would use his veto power. Aside from the Canadian agreement the measures which the Democrats expect to pass are the bill providing for a permanent tariff board and reapportionment bill, both of which failed at t'.ie last session. They will also pass an amendment to the campaign publicity law. which was enacted last year. That measure as it passed the house provided for the publication of campaign funds both
