Los Angeles daily herald., 1890-02-25

the House, and the result was shown lust
as the roll.call began, by Wilson rising
and moving recess until tomorrow at Ii
o'clock. There was shout of disap
pointment and derision from the compact
Chicago forces, and when the Speaker
attempted to put the question several
Chicagoans were on their feet with
points of order, alleging that it was too
late, that the roll-call had begun. The
Speaker declared, however, that he had
recognized Wilson before the first name
was called, and put the question. With
out waiting for the announcement of the
uiva voce vote. Wilson demanded the
yeas and nays, and they were ordered.
| There was much excitement on the
floor at this point. Flower was hurrying
about from one man to another pointing
to the clock, which indicated the hour of
430, and urging recess. A rumor ran
over the western side of the hall, where
Chicago was in force, that it was the pur-
pose of the New Yorkers to arrange over
night for the transfer of their strength
and that of St. Louis to Washington, and
the fact that Wilson, in charge of Wash
| ington's interest, was leading the move
ment, tended to add currency to the
rumor.
GOTHAM's BACKBONE BROKEN.
If such was the purpose, however, it
failed signally, for on the yeas and nays
and Note the West clannishly rallied
together, and the House refused to take
recess by vote of yeas 1856, nays ia.
The Chlcagoans answered in feverish
impotence, fearing dlatory tactics that
would lose them the advantage they held.
Mason rushed forward to the clerk, ex-
claiming "Call the roll Call the roll %
| New York's backbone was broken, how
ever, and there was little further opposi-
| ton.
SEVENTH BALLOT.
The clerk again took up his list, and
the result was 81 votes, divided as fol-
lows: Chicago, 154; New York, 112; st.
Louis, 27; Washington, II. The major
ity made 156 and Chicago had 154, Just
| two votes short.
There was an agony of expectation
when Mason dragged Reyburn, Judge
Kelley's successor, forward. He said he
wanted to change his vote from New
York to Chicago. and did so. He was
greeted with applause and evidently ex.
pected to lead stampede for Chicago,
but was disappointed. Nobody followed
155, one less than majority.
CHICAGO ACHIEVES HER VICTORY.
The New York forces were retiring ia
good order and contested every inch of
the ground. So another rol-call was
necessary. 1t was the eighth and last,
for Chicago achieved her victory, and
out of total of 307 votes received 157,
three more than majority. New York
had 10Y, st. Louis 25, and Washington
Is. Following is the
