Aiken of South Carolina, Beltzhoover of Pennsylvania, Bland of Missouri, Colverick of Indiana, Ellis of Louisiana, Morse of Massachusetts, Phelps of Connecticut, Rob ertson of Louisiana, Speer of Georgia, Ste- venson of Illinois and Wright of Pennslyva- mia. These gentlemen have all friendly feeling for the Greenback party, and are like the members of that party opposed to fund ing the debt. Besides the vote on the final passage of the bill there were four other roll calls on amendments. The proposition to make the rate of interest 3 per cent. was car ried by 149 to 1O4. The Greenbackers all voted for the proposition. The Republicans for it were Conger, Daggett of Nevada, Dun nell, Kelley, Murch of Illinois, McCord of Iowa.

MT. Morse of Massachusetts, was the only Democrat that voted against this propo-
 sition. The vote on the Carlisle amendment to the fifth section was about in the same

 measure, but because they believed some
 funding act was necessary and hoped the Senate would change it. But for this hope the bill would have been defeated in the House.
