The consideration of the resolution |
)r the commission of Pinchback was )
esumed and Mr.. Ferry, of Connecti- i
ut, replied to the argument of Mr.. /
lorton. He said that the senator from +
indiana, few days ago, argued that !
hen the president was called upon to "
lppress domestic violence under the C
st of 1905, his compliance with the v
I'll involved the determination of the J.
