WAsHISsToS CRY, April 29.-The Senate
today resumed discussion of the railroad
land forfeiture bill. Mr.. Plumb discussed
Mr.. Calls amendment in regard 70 lands
in Florida. On motion to lay the amend
ment on table no quorum voted-yeas ~,
nays "a. But ~ call OF the Senate showed
the presence of fifty-two members. Mr..
Sherman rose and said that whenever
quorum was present and the vote did not
disclose that fact. he should insist upon the
assembly rule that . senator present and
not voting should be counted.
Mr.. Blackburn asked If NJ. Sherman in
tended to disregard pairs. or whether the
rules OF the Senate authorized the presiding
officer to do that which the speaker Of the
House had been engaged in doing.
Mr.. Sherman said he would not break q
pair, but it is the duty OF every person not
paired to vote. He thinks the fact that
such senators are present and constituting
q quorum may be properly announced by
the chair and that even the rule adopted by
the House of Representatives is in exact
accordance with the Senate rules and with
the constitution.
After some further debate the question
was taken again and Mr.. Calls amendment
was laid on the table by q special party

Mr.. Moody offered an amendment. which
was agreed to, declaring that the act shall
not be construed to confer any right on any
state. corporation or person TO lands ex-
cepted in the grants. The bill then passed
without a division.
Mr.. Mcpherson introduced bill grant
ing pension of s., 500 year 10 the widow

The Senate then proceeded TO the con-
siderstion OF the Mckinley administrative
