He closed his speech at o5 and the question
Immediately recurred on the motion to recon-
NIT. on which the yeas and nays We're demand
ed and resulted. yeas ~. nays 20. and the CHAIR
declared the motion lost. Patterson voted aye.
and COnover voted no.
Mr. Davis was paired with his colleague Mr..
Mr.. Morgan offered an amendment that moth
ing in the resolution should preclude the right
of the Senate to inquire into the allegations
made in the resolution of Mr.. Salisbury as to
the right of Mr.. Kellogg to seat on this floor.
like others the behest of the, party, and
yoted against ba dd hS 9sF fbeF Judgment hs asr ter
had been properly placed before them. He
thought the Senate at al times had the right to
inquire into the aualiIeeutionsf I'll of Of or ebargfa nh
refuse to order an Investigation. but o commit
tee had right to refuse it unless the Senate or
dered it. For that reason he did not think it
properly before tho committee. The senate
had Just voted not to order it. Perhaps the
Senate did not think this was an opportune
time for such an Investigation. 1t did seem
as though 1t was innpportune at this time when
party spirit ran so high. aud when the decision of
the question one way or another gave party
advantage to Que side or the other.
hr Conkling held that the amendment offered
did not alter the right of the Senate in the easto
order an Investigation ct any time. After some
| cooquy between Conkl ing and Morgan, the lat
ter Withdrew the amendment. and claimed that
| he had attained his object.
| Mr. WadIegh sent up and had read commu-
nication from Kellogg. calling attention to the
statement of Mr.. Hill that Srotford had said
