WASHINGTON, May 20.--TAo house
met at the usual hour yostmday and
went into committee Of the whole Mr..
Growenorl Of Ohio, In the ohairl on the
tariff bill After the chairman had
given sharp admonitlon 10 the pecta-
tors IN the gallery that they must pre-
serve order, Mr., Wilson, N West Vir-
ginia, took the floor on a question OF
personal privilege, He expressed his
qualification that the lapse Of time since
the unhappy episode OF Saturday per-
mitted him 10 make u thoroughly de-
liberate and dispaaaionaie statement.
As the chairman Of the committed had
admitted q certain letter ON the ground
that a'priyate citizen, when assailed In
the hall, had right TO be heard IN his
own defense, and ~ that was undoubt-
edly q correct theory, he would endeayor
70 give o plain history Of the whole
transaction,
d1ehearscd Carefully tho Incidents.
Mr. Wilson then rehearbed carefully
all the incidents attending the interview
betm0en Mr.. Campbell, Mr. Bynum aud
himself, which was the beginning Of tho
trouble He told how MIR. Campbell
had asked for nm interview with them,
and how Campbell after theinterview,
quoted him and Mr.. Bynum IN saying
that $40 month was good enough for
worldngnan, implying especially that II
was enough for glassworkers. He told
hs.sst 4ta...s.l.an huI IL. .lllu.4N a..
statement, and how copies Of that afll-
davit were scattered through his district
during the campaign, He told how he
denied the statement and denounced
Campbell as liar. He detailed very
carefully the interview between Camp
bell, Bynum and himself, TO show that
the statement Of Campbell was false.
The only words used which could have
been distorted into this meaning were
those OF Mr., Bynum, who said that in
his country, agricultural laborers re-
ceived $40 u month board and many
Of them had q garden patch.
No reference was made 10 any other
form 1f labor. In conclusion Mr.. Will
son said that In view Of the courteous
relations which had heretofore existed
between the gentleman from Pennsyl-
vania Mr. Bayne and himself, he would
give that gentleman an opportunity 10
say whether he personally indorsed the
language Of Campbell as referring 10
him Mr.. Wilson,
Mr.,Dayno Thoreupon Arose
and In " frank and manly way stated
that when he presented the letter he
knew nothing about the affidavit which,
he felt sure, grew out of migunder-
standing batween Mr.. Campbell and the
gentlemen from Indiana and West Vir-
ginia, Mr.. Bynum and Mr.. Wilson. No
one could regret more than he did that
this had taken place.
Mr.. Wilscnsaid that after this state
ment he did not feel that II was neces-
sary for him 10 pursue this matter any
further. Both Mr.. Wilson and Mr.. |
Bayne were calm and dispassionate in
their language and manner, and the |
members Of the house were pleased that |
the scenes OF Saturday We're not re-en-
acted. There was some applause on the |
Democratic side. mud the house then re- |
sumed consideration OF the tariff bill, |
the pending amendment being that Of |
fered by Mr.. Funston, OF Kansas stril- |
ing from the metal schedule the proviso
that silver ore and all other ores con-
tanning lead shall pay duty Of 1 10 |
cents per pound on the lead contained
thorein, according to sample and assay |
1T the port Of entry.
Mr.. Bartine, Of Nevada, was surprised
howany man who stood on the Repnbli-
can platform Of 1883 could favor the
amendment. The amendment was re-
Aected--4 TO 1e0.
