FOR CONTINUOUS SESSIONS Mr. Harris Sprung That Proposition on the Senate Last Evening, A Lively Debate on Both Sides—Mr. Teller Defines His Position—No Action Yet Taken. The democratic managers of the tariff bill sprung a surprise upon their opponents in the Senate yesterday afternoon by refus- ing to adjourn at 6 o'clock, the hour at which the Senate usually ceases business for the day under the present arrange- ment. The session was prolonged until 10:35, when, wearied by long waits and fruitless rolt calls, Senator Harris consent- ed to an adjournment. When The Star Went to press in the afternoon Senator Higgins was in the midst of his speech about sectionalism in the tariff bill, and then for upwards of an hour he and Sen- ator Allen were engaged in warm debate as to the constitutionality of protection. When Mr. Higgins yielded the floor Sen- ators Aldrich and Lodge made brief speech- es, and the first vote of the day occurred at about 4:15 on the committee’s amend- ment to the ocher ph. This was agreed to—31 to 20. The committee's amiend- ment on the varnish paragraph was also accepted—29 to 17. Smooth progress was made for some time, the Senate passing the vermillion, whiting, zinc, oxide and lead acetate paragraphs. There was a short de- rr, the — lead item, and Senator ich ~consums some time by reading a long letter, . Mr. Harris Moved a Recess, Several votes were taken, with the uni- form result of sustaining the committee, and just before 6 o'clock Mr. Harris moved @ recess until 11 today, which would have had the effect of keeping the tariff contin- uously before the Senate, and so prevent- ing the consideration of morning business today. Mr. Manderson, however, had ‘se- cured the floor just previous to this to move an adjournment, and after a brief discus- sion this motion was given the precedence, but was lost—l4 to 32. The question then came on Mr. Harris’ motion for a recess, and Mr. Manderson made a brief statement. He disclaimed any intention of filibustering, but deprecated the desire of the democratic managers to rush the tariff bill through to the exclusion of all other business. a “It seems to me,” he said, “the time has hardly come for that sort of oppressive ac- tion. We have been here laboriously today and the heat is very oppressive. I for one do not propose, if I can prevent it by ac- tion of mine, to cut off members of the Senate from the usual morning business. We have already consented to reduce it from two hours to one, and now the propo- sition is to ebolish it altogether and to keep us here simply for the consideration of this bill, and nothing else, no matter how important the matter may be that calls for our consideration. : Waiting for a Quorum. He moved to amend the motion to take @ recess until 12 instead of 11, and there was a long discussion about the admissibility of such amendment, which was concluded by the Vice President deciding in favor of Mr. Manderson. Putting the question, he thought the noes had it. Mr. Manderson demanded the ayes and nays, but Mr. Vest des ded a count of the seconds. Fifteen tors rose and the roll was called, re- sulting in 5 yeas and 38 nays. On the mo- tion to take the recess until 11, the yeas were none, and the nays 3¥, Senators Du- bois and Teller voting with the democrats. On the call for a quorum only 37 Senators answered. While the Senate was waiting for a quorum, Mr. Manderson mo an adjournment at 6:30, and the yeas were 12 and nays 30, one short of a quorum,..On this vote Messrs. Dubois and Teller’wéted with the republicans. At 7:30, no quorum having appeared, Mr. Aldrich moved ah ‘ad- journment, which was lost, 11 to 2. At ‘:45 Mr. Pugh arrived, followed in a few minutes by Mr. Martin, but still the Senate was short of a quorum. At 8:14, the Senate having done nothing on the bill since 6 o'clock, Senator Chandler showed signs of irritation at the delay, and asked for permission to submit some gen- eral remarks on the principles that ought to govern the framing ef the tariff bill. The chair ruled that this would be out of order, and then Mr. Aldrich suavely in- red : “Would it be in order to move to send the “assistant doorkeeper (Capt. Bassetty after the sergeant-at-arms, to find out whether anything is being done to secure a quorum?” Seon afterwards the report of the ser- geant-at-arms wac laid before the Senate, showing: “Ten Senators are absent from the city; twenty-two Senators have not yet been found; one, the senior Senator from Vermont (Mr. Morrill), says his health will | not permit him to attend; nineteen of those | reported absent are now present or have said that they would come at once.” At 8:30 Mr. Chandler said: “I take the liberty, although I may subject myself to the charge of absurdity, to call attentiorb bd the fact that the senior Senator ro ennessee (Mr. Harris) is not recorded present.” aves “He has been very numerously presért for a good while,” tartly responded Mr, Harris. A Quorum, but No Business. Fifteen minutes later Mr. Harris had his name called and responded, and a moment or two later, Senator Aldrich, by a ques- tion, disclosed the presence of a quorum, whereupon he moved to dispense with further procesdings under the call, which was lost, yeas 5, noes 31, no quorum, The roll call showed 43 present, but on the next division the yeas were none and the noes Another roll call showed 45 Senator Manderson at this time made brief speech. He said that the effect of the proposition of Mr. Harris to take a recess was a practical denial of the right of = tition. It meant that no matter how {m- portant a petition, a bill or resolution that the’ Senators might desire to introduce, the opportunity could not be given hin to do so. “No haste can be forced in the con- sideration of this bill by any such method I want no delay on this bill, I want no time taken for the mere sake of taking up time.” He said that he had no question but that if in the morning, with the repub- can side fully represented, Mr. Harris suggested to the Senate his desire unanimous consent, with two or three days’ notice in advance, for 10 o'clock sessions, with an hour for morning business, it would have been acceded to. Mr. Harris disclaimed any idea of Pong unfair in adopting the method he did, an said it was not contemplated an hour be- fore the motion was made. He had m dream of taking advantage of anybody. He charged Mr. Manderson with inconsistency, for the latter had moved and voted for re cess after recess during the silver repeat debate. After a further colloquy between these Senators, Mr. Teller took the floor and made an earnest speech, in which he said that everybody knows that if the tariff bill is passed between now and the 4th of March next, there must be more progress made with it. Mr. Teller Defines Mis Position. “I am opposed to this bill; I am not going to vote for it; but I expect it to be passed, and I expect it to become a iaw.” Mr. Tel- ler announced this opinion with the greatest emphasis. “I expect it to be passed be- cause the question of the revision of the tariff was submitted to the American people in 1892, and they were in favor of the re- vision; but the majority in this chamber and in the other house are charged with that responsibility, and not we. But the people have a right to have some kind of legislation on this subject. They voted for it and they are entitled to it. “I am in favor not of haste, but of proper dispatch. I think the majority have a right to proceed with this bill with reasonable dispatch, but not with the haste that was attempted the last session.” Mr. Chandler scored Mr. Teller for his position, and said that he and his friends should not be judged in their present move- ment 9s a party “by a reference to that grand non-partisan movement for repealing the purchasing clause of the Sherman act.” The discussion grew spirited, and after speeches by Senators Hawley ‘and Harris, Mr. Aldrich proposed to Mr. Harris that the Senate should adjourm and on-the morrow discuss the 10 o'clock propositon. Mr. Har- ris, however, insisted upon his recess. A Tilt Between Messrs. Aldrich and Harris. “We cannot take a recess,” insisted Mr. Aldrich. "Then we cannot adjourn,” rejoined Mr. Harris. “Then I see nothing for us to do but to remain in session until tomorrow morning.” was Mr. Aldrich’s reply. “I do not believe, however, that that is wise for either side of the chamber.” Mr, Gordon asked Mr. Aldrich if he was ready to agree that the vote on the passage of the bill should be taken within any rea- sonable time. “I do not think the Senator from Georgia -liver oil with Hypophos;) lphites.

Firally a vote was taken on Mr. Aldrich’s motion to di with further proceedings under the call, and resulted, yeas, 2 (Teller and .Dubeis);. nays, 38. Forty-five Senators answered to their names on a roll call, and Mr. Harris renewed the motion to dispense with the further proceedings. On this vote yeas were 39, the nays none; and on the next call of the Senate forty-nine Senators answered. Mr, Hale suggested to give half an hour's consideration to the bill, and after a litte debate, this was done. Mr. Harris’ Statement. At the end of this time Mr. Harris made the following statement: “After a very earnest and persistent ef- fort to hold a quorum to do business, I am bound to recognize the impossibility of holding a quorum in the Senate at tl time.. The practical question that I have to decide is whether the faithful few are to be held here all night -without profit.

I will send to the desk the resolution I hold in my hand. I introduced a similar one a number of days ago that I have allowed to lie on the table until this time. I modify it by including in it an additional feature, and I send it to the desk in order that it may be read. I wish to give notice now that tomorrow morning I shall ask the Senate to consider it, and to agree to it or reject it upon its ee its. My object is to make progress with “He then gave notice of-the resolution that on and after Monday next, until otherwise ordered, the daily sessions of the Senate should begin at 10 o'clock, and that thirty minutes should be given to the morning hour. He also gave notice that under rule 9, the pending measure being a revenue bill, he had the right to'move to consider it at any time during the morning hour. He then moved to adjourn, and at 10:35 this was agreed to. The Steering Committee's Notice. During the latter part of yesterday gfter- noon the following noticé, signed by Bena- tors Cockrell, Blackburn, Harris, Brice and Ransom, composing the steering com- mittee of the Senate, was handed to each Senator on the democratic side: “The absolute necessity of making gréat- er upon the tariff billand the fact that’ the Senate has found itself without a quorum between 5 and 6 o'clock each day, aid that the absence of Senators from t chamber freqdently furnishes an exclse for a call of the Senate, prompts us to ap- peal to every democratic Senator to re- main in the Senate until stch hour as the democratic side may choose to adjourn, and to cancel all pairs or reserve the right to vote to make @ quorum.” ——_—_—+—= GIFTS FOR MR. KENNEDY. An Ex-Foreman in the Government Priating Ofice Handsomely Treated, The second division of the government printing office last night manifested their regard for their late foreman, Mr. J. L. Kennedy, by presenting.to him a hand- somely bound copy of Webster's Interna- tional Dictionary, a substantial holder for the same, and the two volumes of Mr. Blaine’s “Twenty Years of Congress.” The committee who had charge of the presenta- tion were Joe M. Lenhart, Kate A. Cheat- ham, Mary H. Williams and John F. Hur- ley. Mr. Lenhart, in a few well-chosen wo! assured Mr. Kennedy of the high tin in which he is held by his late asso- in office, and then presented the tah- gible evidence of their good will. Mr. Keh- nedy was genuinely surprised, and for once almost tt the power of speech. He sured the committee that the second di- vision chapel had placed him under lasting obligations by their many kindnesses, and he returned sincere thanks for the lteSt token of their regard. Today Mr. Kentio@y sent the ladtes and gentlemen of the sec- ond division a letter of thanks, in which he assured them that their testimonial of re- spect came in the form which was most gratifying to him. ——~—>_——_ Declines Be a Candidate. Representative Bryan of the first Nebras- ka district has sent a letter to the chairmam | of his congressional committee, Judge J. HL Broady of Lincoln, declining to be a candi- date. for re-election. His reasons for re tring from congressional life are that he is unwilling to enter into a contest which, to be waged successfully, would confine him to his istrict during’ the campaign. The dis- trict is republican by 6,500, and in the last election Mr. Bryan won by the narrow ma- jority of 149; and as he wants to take a more active part in the state campaign than he could do with a doubtful congressional campaign on his hands, he has decided to decline a renomination. i In hig letter to Judge Broady he expressed some doubts as to the future of the demo- cratic party, saying, “If the Presiden’ financial policy becomes the policy of the party I do not see any reason for the con- tinued existence of the party, because the republicans, having followed that policy longer, are better prepared than we to sup- | port it. If, On the other hand, the party repudiates Mr. Cleveland's financial policy, and renews its devotion to the common people, it may yet become an effective in- strument In the securing of good govern- Mr, Bryan states that he will resume his law practice in the city of Lincoln. ——~-e-___—_—_ Eloped With a Sewing Machine Man. | Takoma Park is stirred up over a real live sensation in the form of an elopement.
