WASHINGTON, June 19.-Mills, O
 Texas, said the point he made was un
 der the existing rules.
 The silver bill remained upon tn, | speakers table, to be disposed of as tn
 house, not the speaker should determine The clerk informed the speaker tha
 among the list of bills to be offered un
 der the rules, to appropriate committees
 was the silver bill with the senat,
 amendments.
 The chairman said he had consulted
 with the democratic members of the
 committee as to any light they may be | able to give, after which 1t had seemed | clear to him that his duty was to treat | this as he would treat any other. He { was not directed to make any other | change as to the reference. The house | must bear in mind that this was not a question of politics but of parliamentary
 law. If not satisfied with the reference l directed by the speaker the house could change it.
 Cannan moved to table Mills resolu. tion; motion lost.
 Mills then moved to approve the jour
 nal as amended, asking to withdraw the
 preamble, which recites that the order
 of reference made by the speaker refer
 ring the silver bill to the committee on coinage, weights and measures, as incor- rect under the rules of the house, and done without authority under the said relef.
 Mckinley objected and the question recurred on the adoption of the pream-
 ble, which was lost
 The chairman of the committee on elections for president, vice president and representatives today submitted a report on tha federal election bill, draft cd in accordance to instructions in the caucus. The report says that part of the committee believe that fraud, vio- lence and corruption exist to such de- gree and popular confidence has been so largely shaken i'll regard to elections in many congressional districts, that they have as little doubt of the expediency of such measure as this, which they pro- posed, as they have a full and absolute power m congress to enact legislation Of this kind whenever circumstances seemed, as they do now, imperatively to demand it.
 The silver bill is now in the possession of the clerk of the committee on coinage, weights. and measures, andihe has no au- thority to surrender it's custody, unless by order of the house or speaker.
 No such order has been made by the house and the speaker is not likely to re- call 1t. There IS no record in the journal that any reference has been made and therefore it IS doubtful whether the mo- to discharge the committee from consid- eration will be in order, or even whether the committe on rules can report the resolution, fixing the day for its consid- eration. The journal of Wednesday, however, not having been yet approved, the same motion may be advised to cut the gordian which binds the silver bill and also relievesthe house from a di- lemma.
