WASHINGTON, Feb 3.-Mr. Mcmillan,
of Tennessee, fred the first gun for the
Democrats in the House Saturday. The
clerk in reading the journal omitted the
names Of those voting on Mr.. Springers

requested that they be read. The Re-
publicans saw at once that the Demo-
Gratis were still in the fight and intended
to string out the reading Of the journal
as long as possible. Hardly had the
clerk repeated the last words of the
journal when Mr., Mckinley moved that
the journal be approved and demanded
the previous question.
Mr.. Springer was ready with his mo-
tion to adjourn, on which he proceeded
to speak until checked by Speaker Reed
with the remark that: "The gentleman
from Illinois knew that motion to ad-
iourn was not debatable." AS Mr..
| Springer's motion was in order the
Speaker stated it and ordered the yeas
and nays. On this roll call the Demo-
Gratis voted and the result was that the
House refused to adjourn-yeas 1856, nays
1853. The call for the previous question
on Mr.. McKinley's motion to approve
the journal was the next step, and on
this Mr.. Mcmillan demanded the yeas
and nays, which was ordered. The DEM
ocrats refused to vote and the Speaker
