Herbert then attempted to have the naval
bill considered, but his motion
was antagonized by Crisp of Georgia, who
desired the consideration of the Pacific rail-
road funding bill. The speaker ruled
hat the question must first be taken on
talling up the latter measure. and
Springer gave notice that if its considera-
ton was pressed at this time he would resort
TO parliamentary methods to defeat it, as he
wished its consideration postponed until
after the holidays in order that he might
submit some remarks upon the bill and per-
naps some amendments to it. A standing
Eote was TAKEN resulting in III votes being |
,ast in favor of and 40 votes against taking
up the bill. -. ......
Holman called for the yeas and nays, while
N the same breath Springer moved to ad-
iourn. At2:1J the latter motion was car
RED amid applause by those of the minority
who wished consideration of the bill deferred.
