At tho couclusion of the reading the bill Wwas o put on its passage with- out discussion. Several indopendents ex. plained their votes against it.

Lixcory, Neb,, April 2.- [Special to Tie Bre. | —Senator Keiper's resolution dis- pensing with the services of the sifting com- mittee was summarily disposed of in the sen ate this morning, not,however, without giv- ing a number of the senators an opportunity toair themselves on the subject. A motion was made to lay the resolution on the table, Senator Beck said he was opposed to the sifting committee, but if that body had kept back any important. bills it was too iate to remedy it now, and he moved to table the resolution Senator Christofferson said while he had not made exorvitant demands of the commit- tee inf question, he had been treated by it with the utmost courtesy. He was gratfied to see that tha committee was composed of some of the oldest und most experienced members, nearly all of whom had served before in the legislature. A vote to dis- 50 with their services would be an insult to them—would, in fact, say to them that they were not ' capable of transact- ing the businéss for which they had been ap- pointed. [t was apparent to him that those who favored dispensing with the sery of this committee had commenced to reulize that it made a great deal of difference whose 0x was gored. Senator Collins_thought the sifting committee at to dispense with this time would be stake. There was a lurge number of bills on general filo. Among them were the appropriation measures, Unless the file was sifted, these bills would bo snowed under uniess they could secure a two-thirds vote, enator Dysart said he had not voted for the appointment of the sifting comunitee, “that body had been sprung upon the inde- pendents. There was no necessity for such acommittee. One hundred men had been sent to the house of representatives and thirty-threo to the senato. It was their duty to pass upon all bills presented. 1t was auto- cratic, anarchistic and savoring of the work of the czar of Russia to give seven men the power the others should exercise. The sift- ing committee was sifting ouly the chaff and ing no attention to the wheat. 1t was re- porting bills for which he would not_give 10 cents a dozen. The only wuy to get the good bills was to do away with the committee, he chair here ruled that hereafter, in ex- plaining his vote, no senator would be al- owed to discuss the question. Senator Keiper said that in voting for the sifting committee he ald not think he was swrendering his independence. Senator Randall was opposed to tabling the resolution. There was no bill before the committee in which he was specially intor- ested. The committee, however, was smoth- ering bills which the people demanded. Ho wanted to know 1f seven men ought to be permatted to transact the business of 133 men. The vote resulted as follows : Yeas—Beck, Brown, Christofferson, Col- lins, Day, Eggleston, Hill, Koontz, Mattes, Moore, Schram, Shumway, Smith, Starbuck, Switzler, Thomas, Williams, Wilson, Woods. —19.

Oue of these periodical pleas this afternoon nearly brought on u row, which was only averted by the prompt dissolution of the session, Tho house was in committeo of the whole with Schappel -in the chair, when Porter of Merrick demanaed the enforccment of the anti-smoking rule. A wimber of gentlemen wero pufiing cigars, and the chair directed the sergeant-at-arins to stop the smoking, Gale of Brown, a little follow with the grit and pugnacity of a bantam, jumped to his feet and made'an appeal to the house. The foderal coustitution, he said, guarantees cvery citizen the right to life, liberty and lappiness. Ho had used tobacco for - great years, uud it was absolutely necessary 1o bis happiness. Ho rested upoa the consti- tutional guarauteo in his right to smo'e. The chair aonounced that the rule would be enforced, and there followed a wordy tilt between the two gentlemen, amid shouts of encourugement and of derision, Oalley of Lancaster arose to ask a ques- tion of Gale, and when that excited gontle- man was calimed enough to give permission . holding up a cigar, snid : “Will the gentleman furnish me with a light" “Yes, sir,” was the prompt response, and Gale marched acrossed the room, Oakley’s apparent deflduce of the chal man and the sergeant-at-arms daged the house, which watched him light bis Havauna trom Gale's, amid comparative silence, but when Oalkley laid his cigar aside the assem- bly roared at his action asa good joko. A sympathizer of Gale's rawed tho point that, being in committeo of the whole, Chair- man' Sehappol had 1o power to enforce the rulo. At that moment a message from the senate was announced, and der, speaker pro tem, sprang tothe chairto give it a proper offivial reception. Portor seizod the opportunity to demand the enforcoment of the rule, and Shrader ovdered the sergeant- at-arms to put Gale cut of the room if ho por- sisted in smoklug, Two sergeants seized Gale, one by either arm, and proceeded to march him ot A scene of wild disorder followed. Members, lobbyists, pages and clarks joined in a mad rush for Gule's side. Shoute and motions mingled in_one grand cnorus, Whilé Gale was being dragged out he yelled ropeatedly : “Tappeal from the decision of the chair ! But his voice was lost in tho pandemonium, and the speakor was busy adding to the vacket by poundiug his desk and calling for order. The situation was somewbat critical. Speaker Ilder, attracted by the noise, came chair. Church Howe, with one bf his ations, graspod the situation and moved o adjourn. The spoaker hesitated. Howe insisted, and a little knot of representati adjourned the session while most of the wem- bers were stenggling to reach Gale, T'his action released that gentleman from lis unpleasant position, and for an hour afterwards croups of men were aiscussing tho affuir.
