FAILURE OF PENSION LEGISLATION.

SIDER GENERAL PENSION BILLS.
Washington, July IL (specaD. The request Of
Premier" Mills that an evening session next week

either or BOTH as Mr.. BANDS objection Immediately
aftcrward defeated the request Of f. b. Taylor Of
Ohio that evening session be granted for tho con-
sderaton Of general pension bills. Many OF the
Republicans have become so indignant on account OF
the repeated objections offered by Democrats to re-
quests for unanimous consent TO consider the Do
pendent Pension bill and several other general pen
sion bills that they threaten TO object 10 any further
special assignments, unless the Democrats will allow
pension bills to be considered and voted upon. This
would have been adopted before II majority
of the Republicans had not felt reluctant to do any
thing which could lay them open 10 charge Of OBJ
structng legislation.
The real obstructlonsts are the Democrats them
selves The Speaker and his confidential advisers
have adopted the same policy which they found so
effective in the last Congress in throttlng legislation
which they do not favor. The Speaker has delibcr-
atey refused to recognize any Republican to offer the
Dependent Pension bill any other general pension
bill for passage under suspension of tho rules.

motion of that sort must be made by Democrat, TX
