A Resolution for Adjournment on July 4.
WASHINGTON. June 6.-This was n lively day
in tho House. Seven important measures were
passed under suspension Of the rules. 1t Is
tho first limo this session that tho Democrats
have worked as o unit Tho Republican forces
were largely depleted. and they were totally
unable to stem tho lido OF cgislation that had
SGT in The Democrats rallied to the support
Of every measure but one-that exempting
State banks from taxation. which failed to pass.
Among the measures passed were: Tho Anti
Option bill. the resolution placing tho River and
Harbor and Naval Appropriation bills In confer
once. tho resolution for tho purchase OF q site
and the erection Of pedestal for statue to
General Sherman. bills admitting New Mexico
md Arizona as States, and finally. the Logis-
lative. Executive. and Judicial Appropriation
bill At times tho House was in an uproar
Soon after tho session opened. Mr.. Hatch
Dem.. Mo- moved to suspend the rules and
pass tho Anticipation bill. Tho bill was read
by tho Clerk. Mr.. Cummings Dcm.. N. " de-
mandcd second reading and got it.
Mr. Raynor dem. Md said the measure
was clearly UNCONSTITUTIONAL anu lue Dlll WAS
framed with tho intention to strike down one
OF the most important industries Of tho coun.
try. spirit OF Capitalization was manifest In
the bill in its most malignant form. Taxation
was not lowed for purposes OF revenue. but to
break down and utterly destroy business In
dustry. If Congress PASSED this measure the
courts would not sustain Its action.
Mr. Cummings closed the brief discussion
for tho opposition. He said this measure was
even moro obnoxious ana outrageous than tho
Force bill. to which six days had been given.
and now the American House OF Representa-
tivcs wanted to pass this measure in fifteen
minutes. which was more grossly unconstitu-
tional. 1t raised tho price OF bread. 1t was nt
that 1t should be passed in the dead of night.
