FACTS FOR THE CENSUS.
The House Passes the Bill Relating t
the Mortgage indebtedness.


WASHINGTON, Feb. 15.-In the House
this morning the journal of yesterday IS
proceedings was approved by vote Of 1913
yeas to nay. The republicans were the
first to feel the effects of the new rules, sew
eral of the u who were not present during
the roll call being refused permission to
rec rd their votes thereafter.
Mr. Dunnell from the committee on the
eleventh census. reported back the Senate
bill providing for the ascertainment of the
mortgage indebtness Of the country.
Mr.. Dockerv of Missouri offered an
amendment providing that sections 13 to 16
of the original census act shall apply to the
provisions of this act. He stated that the
bill was not an amendment TO the origual
act, and consequently its defect lay in tine
fact that it failed to provide any pains or
penalties for officers guilty of malfeasance,
or TO any person or corporation which re-
fused to answer any questions profounded.
Mr.. Dunnell said that although he did not
wish to delay the passage of the bill, he
would make no objection to the amend
ment. The amendme t was adopted by q
vote of 9S yeas to 63 nays, and the bill as
amended was passed by vote Of 1873 yeas
to % nays.
Public business was then suspended, and
the House proceeded to listen to appropriate
eulogies to the memory Of the late Hon.
Ricnard Townshend of Illinois. Addresses
were made by Messrs. Holman, Hooker of
Mississippi, c mpton of Maryland, ,Cutcheon
of Michigan, Henderson of Iowa, McMillin
of Tennessee, Williams, Henderson, Cannon,
Lane, and Springer Of Illinois; and the as
a mark of respect to the memory Of the de-
ceased, the House at o'clock adjourned.
Among the measures favorably reported
from committees were the following:
By Mr.. Adams Of New York, from the
Judiciary committee-The international
copyright bill.

MoNTANA's sENAToRsHIPs.
The Senate Committee Begins It's In
vestigation of the Claims

The Senate Committee Begins It's In
vestigation of the Claims.
WASHINGTON, Feb. I5.-The Senate COM
mittee on privileges aud elections began to-
day its investigation of the credentials of
the several claimants for seats in the Senate
from Mon ana. Before the formal sessi On
began, Mr.. Saunders, one of the republican
claimants, gave brief statement of the
situation. There was full attendance of
the COMMITTEES. Col. Holbert z. Paine ap-
peared as counsel for tue republican
claimants. The counsel for the de no.
Gratis is ex-Solicitor General jerks.
When the committee found itself
with q quorum, Col. Paine, counsel
for Messrs. Saunders and Powers began the
presentation of the case in their behalf. He
said that be should attempt to maintain by
his argument propositions TO the following:
That the certificates held uy the rival
claimants in this case contradict each other
and are nullities.
SECONDARY PROOF.
This being the case it is the duty Of the
Senate to resort to secondary proof TO de-
termine which of the clai uants is entitled
to the scat. As such secondary proof iU is
compete t to show that the House of
Representatives and the Senate at the
time thew voted for United States senator's
contained a majority of members duly
elected to those bodies, and that in tnis
care there was no change in the member
ship Of the Montana legislature from the
time it was organized, Nov. %, 1889, to
Jan. l and 2, when the election for United
S ateS senators occurred. 10 the substantl-
alton of the certificate required by law,
showing the prinld fdcie right of the holder
to a seat, the Senate has the right to inves-
tigate and adjudicate the claims of de fdctO
members of the legislature electlng the
claimant, but not to go into claims
de jure OF the members thereof. Mr..
Saunders submitted TO the committee in
behif of himself, and his colleague a
statement which will be included In the
records. 1t was not read.
THE CASE FOR THE DEMOCRATS.
Ex-Sohcitor General jerks, for the
democratic senators, at o'clock began the
case for the democratic claimants, He said
that in this case there were three points in
question to be determined.
/. ''ls there priRd fdcie right to seat
IN the United States Senate" He attir med
that there is, and that it is in favor of his
clients.
!. "Is there, or was there legis-
lature to elect senator's" There was,
he said, and the certificate of the commits
sioners of Silver Bow county is the only
credential of the right OF the representation
from that county to sit therein.
8. "In whom is there prind facie right
existingm Mr.. jerks said that it existed
in Messrs. Maginnis and Clark. They
have the title, and they have the right back
Of the title from the people to represent the
state of Montana in the United States
Senate.
Both sides closed the presentation Of their
cases and argument, and the committee adj
journed to meet three we ks from to-day.

purpose to retire from the committee on
foreign relations in consequence Of the
