were sworn in as members from Louis
lana, taking the modified oath.
The case Of Pacheco, of California,
was then called up, when Garfield
moved that the oath of office be admin
istered. Springer, who had made OBJ
lection Monday, offered withdrawal,
but the speaker ruled that as the objec-
tion was on record it could not be with.
drawn, but must be acted upon. After
long discussion Garield's motion was
agreed to without division, and the
oath of office iron-clad) was thereupon
administered to Pacheco. Pacheco
then desired to make some statement,
but he was informed by the speaker
that the question had been disposed of.
The Colorado case, after brief de-
bate, went over.
Adjourned till Saturday, with the
understanding that no business be done
that day.
