fence being riddlci with bullets aud the ground
covered in places with blood. 1t is we'll cstab-
lished that an extra traiu went over the Han
Dibal and St. Joseph Railroad stopping at

ners 1t was impossible TO ascertain where the

ESPECIAL DISPATCHES TO THE GAZETTE.
FROM WASHINGTON.
Congress.
WASHINGTON, D. c., January IS.

SENATE.
In the Senate, to-day, during the mourning
hour, resolution was introduced and referred
as to the expediency of withdrawing the Pa
cfc Mail subsidy
Reports of the Committee of Public Lands
were then taken up.
After the morning hour the Louisiana reso-
lutions were taken up and Mr.. ConkIing add
dressed the Senate at length.
THE ALL-NIGHT SESSION.
The House of Representatives continued its
session all last night and throughout this morn
ing, the time being occupied with dilatory mo-
TONS At IL o'clock the hall presented an un-
usual appearance. No time having been at
forded for the usual sweeping and cleaning the
floor of the ball resembled that of book
bindcry after days paper cutting. 1t Was
Uttered with at least TWO cart loads OF papers.
The voices of the members had changed
their tones since yesterday, the orouud AYE
or mo" being now carried up to q sleepy treble
something between whistle and whisper.
The Speaker kept his seat and seemed little
rusted by the lights fatigue. But the read
ing clerk called the roll with very much more
drawl than is his wont.
Geo. Hun.on's AYE" on the motions to ad
ourn resembled such as the tentative efforts Of
very young rooster TO crow early 10 the morn
ing. Sener, like sensible Republican, had
put himself in his little bed aud was asleep.
Harris vote had 10 it the suggestion OF suore.
Plat came up just as the vote had been called;
he looked pretty sleepy and voted no
The three dilitory motions were repeated, 80
roll calls having taken place up to ll:5O to-day.
AS the hour drew near twelve clock noon,
there seemed to be a disposition among the
Republican members to fud same short cut out
of the maze OF yeas aud nays.
1t was asked at first what would be the effect
of the arrival Of u o'clock Wednesday, wheu
by the rules new day began.
The Speaker said that while it involved an
apparent contradiction to the calendar, So
long as the House did not adj ,urn the jourua
would continue to show the session as being
that of Wednesday. Jan. 10Th, 1915 There
was more than one precedent OF sessions of
three days recorded as one day.
A member inquired if there was no way by
which majority of the House could proceed
to the public business in spite of these datory
motions
The Speaker said that under the rules mo-
tons to adjourn, or to adjourn to a certain
day, or the call for the yeas and nays, could be
continued ad infntem.
1t was then asked could not the rules be
amended by majority
The Speaker said yes
Mr. Niblack objected to motion to amend
the rules. Previous notice was required
The Speaker said that such motion was
not in order pending the vote on adjournment
1t could be submitted under the call Of States
Oh any Monday.
By this time II o'clock had past, and The
House proceeded to vote on dilatory motions
until late hour.
