iBI TELEGRAPH 10 THE TRIBUNE
WASHINGTON, Feb. 1.-THE debate in the House
upon the merely formal matter of administering an
oath to Mr.. Cox, as Speaker pro tenn, has deeper
significance than appeared upon the surface 1T in
dicated the arprehensons of the Democrats tha'
Speaker Kerr may not be able permanently to re-
sumo the duties of his Office, and that an oath
mi .ht in some way in such event make Mr.. Cox the
Speaker in reality. 1t predicted early IN the
campaign for the Speakershp that Mr. Kerrs health
was not equal to the extraordinary de-
mands of the Speakershp. That place requires
great ability, experience and skill but perhaps not
less tran all great physical strength and capacity
for endurance. Mr.. Kerr was in feeble health when
he came He failed perceptby the first month of
his Speakership, then rallied, and now he has again
become so enfeebled that he has been compelled TO
visit New-Yorl to consult eminent specialists Dur
ing the last two weeks the Chair has been almost
ttantly occupied by pro tempore presiding officers
1t was supposed that Mr.. Kerr was at one time
threatened with pulmonary troubles, and at another
with Bright's disease His physicians have nowpro-
nounced his ailment catarrh of the bowels.

The import trade with the Hawaiian Islands consists
chiefly of tropical and senropical products, while the
exports comprise principally manufactured articles pro
