tie impression that they were voting to table them
MY MARTINS motion was carried by practically strict
party vote with the exception OF that OF Mr. liaho
who voted with the Republicans.
Mr.. Maby moved to reconsider the vote by which
the motion had been carried but the point of order
was raised that as he had voted in the itivc he
could not move for reconsd, ration. The speaker
so decided. Then Mr.. Maby rose to a question Of
personal privilege In the time the Dcmoc:; $
began TO wonder just what position the resolutions
were in, and when they found they simply had been
laid aside they decided TO get them again. Mr..
Martin renewed the motion made by Mr.. Maby. that
the vote by which the resolutions had been laid upon

officer to the fact that the resolutions before the
House before he seemed to realize that they in
just the same position that they hour before.
In support Of his position Mr.. Malby said
my friend Mr.. Quigey entered upon the dis
cussion OF these resolutions by stating that bill had
already been introduced by which the object of these
resolutions will be rendered unnecessary. In the
very next breath he stated that there wasn't any
necessity for an investigation. | think that it Is
rather difficult for the gentleman from NcwYork and
the gentleman from Kings to blow both hot and cold
upon these resolutions. They admit that there Is
some difficulty somewhere by introducing bill which
takes away those commissions the right to act
and the very next moment say that they are high
toned gentlemen who don't need investigation. If
they do not need investigation upon what ground,
ask YOU, do you attempt TO lesislate them ont of
Office ?"
Mr.. Jacoby interrupted Mr.. Malby by saying :;
The gentlemen on this side OF the House when they
voted upon Mr. Martins motion thought that 1t was
to lay it the table, and they voted with that i'm
