and called to him several times before
he turned his head. iIs had barely
time to stop 10 one side when the train

The Rep,.6.ic0n pro0+a,n ne.

WASHINGTON, Nay 27.-The Republican
members of the house are satisfied OF the i'm
practicability OF continuing the present strug-
gle without first securing an amendment to
the rules which will prevent dilatory motions.
A nsw line of action has therefore been agreed
upon for next week. On Monday, immed-
atelY after the reading of the journal, Repre-
sentative Reed will call up the amendment OF
the rules reported by him for the committee
on rules, which, if adopted, will virtually
prevent the putting OF dilatory motions
pending consideration of question Of priv
lege. If, as they will undoubtedly do, the
Democrats interpose motion to
adjourn, Reed will make the point
of order that the motion is
a di!atOry one and cannot be entertained, pend
ing the consideration of proposition to
amend the rules, and upon his point of order,
will ask to be heard. Mr.. Randall will prob
ably speak for the Democrats, and the speaker
is expected to sustain the point of order. The
solution of the whole difficulty, therefore,
hinges upon the decision of the speaker. The
feeling tonight is that q renewal of the strug-
gle Monday, upon the line proposed by the
Republicans, will be attended by the most ex-
citing scenes yet witnessed by the present
congress.

thereupon the house shall continue to con-
slider the case until finished without fllibus-

marks was rendered inaudible by cries of
