til $780, when an incident occurred
which demonstrated the helplessness OF
the senate under the present system OF
rules. Voorhees, arose, chafing under
the continued roll calls of the silver
men holding their tired adversaries on
the rack, and petulantly demanded OF
Frye, of Maine, who was in the chair,
to what extent the privilege Of calling
for quorum could be abused.
I'm the terms of the rules" said
Frye, there is no limitation and the
chair knows of no power in the pre-
siding officer to place limitation
Voorhees, sank back in his seat, and
the roll call brought A unwilling vic
tins into the chamber AS soon as
the announcement was made, Quay, of
Pennsylvania, suggested the absence
of a quorum He did It, he said, be-
cause the decision of the chair put 1t
absolutely in the power of any one
senator to block legislation.
"The senate of the United States"
said Frye, with gravity that caused
the galleries to litter, 'is the most dig
nified legislative body in the world"
and he proceeded: "The trainers of
its rules did not suppose that any sem
ator would violate the proprieties or
the decencies of the senate"
"The theory of the constitution,
said Quay disgustedly, may be as
stated by the chair, but our recent ex-
oerience has shown that the senate
$ very differently constituted" He
hen withdrew his suggestion, but Ca
'ey, of wyoming. who evidently de-
sired to show the country exactly how
,owerless the senate was, repeated it.
The senate adjourned at 1;45 a. m.
