in the discussion. The senator from
Indiana, he said, did not claim that
there had been any unnecessary delay

would give him a list of Is senators
who expected to speak on the bill, and

opened their mouths on the subject.
Mr.. Hill Oem., N. W asked Mr..
Teller to state frankly whether he was
not satisfied that a majority in the som

peal of the Sherman law.
Mr.. Teller replied that Mr.. Hill had
no right to ask such question. The

known by its vote.
Mr.. Mills of Texas then took the floor
and advocated repeal. He was followed
by Mr.. Stewart of Nevada, who pro-
tested against any cloture proposition.
Mr.. Stewart was still speaking when
