SPLIT IN EVERY DIRECTION.
Inc ragged condition of the republican
SIDE In the Senate was never more plainly
SHOWN than during the latter part of this
afternoon. The democrats looked on with
wondering delight while republicans aired
thelr olnerences. For another day the re-
puollcans saved the democrats the
trouble of doing anything. The
force bill senator's, who had hardly
recovered from Senator Woloott's attack
mad to face his colleague, less logical and
less eloquent, but equally dangerous. SEN
stor Teller was 50 hot that he spoke three
times Senator Hoar had to stand besides
tnls an entirely unexpected onslaught from
Senator Hale who svented publicly the re-
proaches on Senator Hoar, which have
been uttered so frequently in
the cloak room. Senator Hawley
was the only man who stood up
Tor Senator hoar. IL was not strange that
Senator Hoar bscams embarrassed and con-
fused and found it so difficult to think of
what he wanted to say, point that pro-
laughter. Senator Hoar felt the humilia--
ton OF this situation keenly. After
Senator Teller's second speech the ex-
cltement was SO great that the
republicans split right up along their lines
Of cleavage. Senator Mitchell's sarcastical
suggestio that they had better adjourn the
Senate and 20 into caucus immediately
might have bsen seriously made with ad-
vantage by Senator Hoar, who was at that
moment walking up and down rapidly,
nervous with tne strain and anxious for
relief. Nothing but adjournment prevented
even moro sensational speeches on the re-
publican side.
THE DEBATE in DETAIL
By the Ass0csated Press
WASHINGTON, Dec. 30-There were very
few senators present whoa the Senate met
at 10 o'clock this morning. Two of them
were democrats -Messrs. Gorman and
Faulkner. o of these called attention to
the absence of quorum, and the sergeant
alarms was called into requisition. 1t was
II o'clock before a quorum ~ was secured.
and before the journal of yesterday was
read The galleries. however, were all
the time crowded with visitors,
principally exeursionists from among the
public school teachers Of New York and
Philadelphia Their presence was recog-
nized by the chaplain, VINO, in his prayer,
asked spec al blessing for the great army
of men q d women gathered in our schools
and colleges and seminaries." During q
long wait there suddenly came from one OF
the galleries general hand-clapplng, sucn
as In a theater signifies impatlence, because
the performance is slow to begin. 1t was
ouietly rebuked By the Vice President, and
there was no repetition OF such vlolation
| of the senatorial decorum.
Mr.. Reagan gave notice of two amend
meats to Mr.. Aldrich's cloture resolution.
