policy marked out by their chief. This was TO limit
the voting each day to one ballot. Speaker Sharpe

bers, having refrained from voting the question
Of adjourning after taking one ballot on tho
ground that he was paired with Mr.. Van Buren,
the Speaker assured him that the pair did not limit
votes on such questions Mr. Finley accordingly
voted TO adjourn. Mr.. Mccarthy another Demo-
crat who had voted with the Administration men
against adjournng. was approached by the Speaker
and questioned about his vote. He replied firmly
that he had voted against adourning. The Speaker
received the reply good-naturcdly and shook his
fist in mock anger at Mr.. Mccarthy. Still II
was evident TO all on the floor that tho
Speaker was earnestly opposed TO taking more
than one ballot, and his action must have
swaycd somo votes as a Speaker must have
considerable influence, even at this period OF the
session. session day after day without electing
any Senators will gradually predispose members to
adjourn without having accomplished this dnty.
The fruitless session Of to-day not secured hy
the Conkling men without a struggle DESPITE their
resistance the Administration leaders obtained two
ballots and it was only upon their attempting to
take third ballot that they were overcome by tho
alliance of Conkling men and Democrats
