The .speaker, without whose aid ther. Is little hop of gaining the appropria tions desired, went far toward dampen ing the ardor of the enthusiastic mem bers of the congress. He took a posi tion exactly, opposite that of president Koosevelt, ' who -declared: "If we haven't the funds to meet the expense, let!s Issue bonds." The grizzled veteran walked to the front of the platform and said: "It is pretty hard to look Into the faces of these delegates and not say something agreeable.

"I believe in conserving the national resources," he exclaimed.
