COMMITTEE OF THE WHOLE.
The House then went into committee OF the
whole, Mr.. Amundson in the chair, on the
bills on the clerks desk. Some fifty bills OF a
local and special character, to which there
was no opposition, were recommended for pas
sage. ,.u ,., J.. 40 nr;n.;na and
distribution of the supreme court reports were
considered together-one known as the Gala
han (Chicago) bill, and the other as the West
(St. Paul) bill Messrs. Hicks, Collins, Dunn,
and Thompson favored the former, and Messrs.
Smith, SanbOrn, Baxter, Comstock, Gearey,
and NOrrish the latter. The debate opened in
lively style, and was kept up without inter
mission from 9 O'Clock till a quarter past IL,
half dozen members being frequently on the
floor at the same time seeking for a hearing.
For a time the House was perfect bedlam.
The chair used the gavel vigorously but was
unable to restrain the confusion. The contest
finally narrowed down into question of
whether the industry of publishing the reports
should be maintained in Minnesota, or
whether it should be sent to Chicago, as both
propositions were substantially the same. The
committee finally recommended the Callahan
bill for indefinite postponement and the West
bill for passage. The committee then rose.
Mr. Hicks excepted from the report the rec,
ommendation on the Callahan bill, and moved
that it be laid on the table. The motion was
lost by vote of 26 yeas to 80 nays.
Mr.. Smith moved that the report of the
committee as to the bill be adopted, which
was carried, Mr.. Hicks voting in the afirma-
tive with an intention of moving to reconsider
the vote.
The House then adjourned till Monday at 10
o'clock A. NJ.
