and the paragraphs retlecting on members

declaring that parts OF the speech reflect
Ing on members OF tho House, on the,

House, and referring to what took place
in the Senate committee, are not q legiti-
mntepart OF the proceedings OF the House.
Mr.. Warner stated he was directed by
the Committee OH Pensions, Bounty and
Back Pay to bring the matter before the
House. He sent to the Clerks desk and
had read portions OF Taylor's speech, to
which objection is taken. They reflect
upon Warner as Chairman OF the Com
mittee on Pensions, Bounty md Back
Pay, on the committee itself and denouuce
tho action Of the House upon the Mexican
Pension Bill. They also make illusions
to the action Of the Senate Committee on
Pensions.
Mr.. Browne, OF Indiana, made the
point TINT the speech OF Taylor did not
violate the privileges Of the House.
The Speaker thought it was not his duty
TO decide that question. II member

been done in violation OF the rules it
