The first genuine sensation in Congress
this season occurred Monday afternoon
Mr.. Dawes arose on 4 question of priyi-
lege and submitted resolution providing
that as Mr. r. B. Irwin dhe Pacific Mail
witness, had given satisfactory reasons for
his failure to answer the summons to APP
pear before the Ways and Means Commit
tee, Irwin be released from the arrest
made by order OF the House on Monday
last. Immediately upon the passage Of
that resolution Mr.. Dawes offered another
for lrWin's rearrest for contempt to the
House through having positively declined
to divulge to the Ways and Means Com
mittee, the names of the persons whom
he employed and paid out of the alleged
three-quarters OF million dollar fund to
assist in procuring the Pacific Mail sub
sdy. While the resolutions and por-
ton OF the testimony of Irwin were being
read from the Clerks desk, members left
their seats and came nearer to Mr. Dawes,
for everybody was eager to hear all hat
was said and see what was done by each
of the actors in this drama Mr. Dawes
said it was a duty the members of the
House owned themselves and the country
to vindlcate the purity of legislation by
