Mr. Nye said he he'd enough experience in
this body " know il wSs useless TO oppose
sn adjournment for week, d,y, Or an

Mr. Sumner favored recess on the ground
that il would BE- beueuih the dignity Of The

wee his inevitable destiny. but until srquis.
tai was entered on record The Senate would
preserve ito own character BY sustaining
from, any further interchange Of message he.
tween Congress and the Presiden,. For
this reason he favored a recess
Mr. Morton thought II rather late in the
day TO act on that idea, having gone on
trsnsscting business with the President.
Mr.. Yates was opposed to q recess be.
csuse lie wanted more bills for the proiec.

Mr Wilson opposed recess on the sane
general grounds ss Nys did.
Dir Dooliltls favored a recess.
Mr. Henderson took Mr. Sumner 10 accouo,
for reflection on the President. II nothing
else should cause Senstors 10 sbstsin from
such remarks, decent sense Of salf respec,
should restrain them. No assoc late had .
right either in the Senate or ia the cout, 10
reflect on the conduct Of sny other Senator.
No man had higher respect for bic CO n.
