ference report on the senate dependent

port go over until tomorrow that 1t might be
printed
MIR. Morrill, objected, and the previous quos-
tion was ordered-yeas, 1899; nays, IS.
Mr.. Morrill, in explanation of the report,
stated that the conference committee had
struck out the dependent feature of the SEN
ate bill and the service feature of the house
bill. The measure as determined upon was
not exactly what he would desire, but was
the best he could obtain. 1t would distribute
S35,OOO,OOO among the poor soldiers of the
nation.
Mr. Yoder of Ohio protested against the
conference report, holding that it ignored the
demands of the soldiers; left his prayers
unanswered and buried in the basement of
the capitol with his petition for per diem
rate of pension.
Mr. Springer of Illinois entered vigorous
protest against the manner in which the bill
was brought before the house. There was no
opportunity offered to the members to exam
inc its provisions.
Mr.. Cannon of Illinois favored the bill on
the ground that it would place on the pension
rolls $50, 600 names and would increase the
pensions of $4,000 men now on the rolls.
Mr.. McComas of Maryland said the bill
was not all he could have wished for, but it
was the best that could be obtained.
