actions now pending. as well as to any
arising in the future, besides wiping
out the limit altogether.
Mr.. jacobson objected. as the subSti-
tute differed from the original bill.
Mr.. rurrelI sustained the objection,
and Mr. Wyman also spoke against al
lowing it to he introduced.
Mr. Walsh withdrew tn substitute
and offered the amendments which
would make the bill the same in effect
as the proposed substitute.
Mr.COttOn objected to receiving them.
inasmuch as the amendments would
make an entirely new bill, since it
makes it necessary to Introduce a Few
title and a bill that is entirely different
from the original. Mr.. Cotton raised
the point of order that the amendments
were not germane to the bill under con
sideration.
Mr.. Walsh spoke on the point of
order and held that the amendments
were in order.
Mr.. Rodger also objected, and hoped
that Mr.. Walsh would withdraw the
amendments and offer a new bill this
| morning.
| Mr.. Young. in the chair, ruled the
amendments germane.
| Mr.. Fleming thought the original bill
should be considered now. or that action
should be deferred until it could be
printed and considered by the me NJ
| bers.
MIR. Wyman objected to substituting
bills in this way.
! Mr.. Walsh moved the adoption of the
amendments, and said that the effect Of
| them was to WlDe out the limit alto
gether. He hoped the committee would
act upon the amendments yesterday
! afternoon and settle it then.
Mr.. Cotton thought Mr.. Walsh was
| seeking to-do by amendments what he
| cannot do by the substitute bill. and
made strong plea for fairness. He
thought the bill should be carefully
| considered, and not be rushed through
| by means of parliamentary tricks or
| i'll any other way. The passa ge
of the bill would mean bank
| Tuptcy to many man, many firm and
| many small corporation in this state.
He thought it unfair to ask the house to
consider measure of so great import
ance without full and careful consider
| alton. Mr.. Cotton then moved as sub
! stltute that when the committee arise
progress be reported.
| Mr.. Horton thought the proper course
to be pursued, in view OF the decision OF
| the chair, was the consideration of the
amendments offered by Mr.. Walsh.
| Mr.. SchOlield could not understand
! the amendments and held that they
should be printed before they were con-
| sidered.
! MIR. Winston wanted an opportunity
| to consider amendments of such i'm
portance.as these.
Mr.. Jacobson thought it strange that
amendments to bill, that entirely de-
strOy the original bill, could be taken
up at this time. Mr.. Walsh had failed
Oh the introduction of the substitute
and now was trying to reach the same
end with the amendments. He thought
the only course for the members, when
they do not understand the matters
under consideration. is to vote no,and if
the amendments were pushed at that
time, he hoped they would do so.
Mr.. Walsh then backed water, and
asked to have the amendments printed,
to be considered together with the orig
inal bill
MIR. Rodger thought there should be a
repeal of the law fixing limit, as il
was unnatural to fix the price of a
mans life.
Mr.. Blocker thought all this talk was
buncombe. He made quite speech in
support of the motion of MIR. Walsh thai
the amendments be printed, and they
and the original bill be considered to-
gether at future time.
.Mr. German thought considerable time
had already been consumed, and asked
that action be taken at this time on the
amendments.
A. B. Kelly favored the printing OF
the bill.
Mr.. Wyman was in favor of extending
all the c0urteSieS to Mr.. Walsh that art
due to any member. He had no feal
that the bill would ever De recommended
to pass.
Mr.. Greer held that the ordering Of
the amended bills to be printed would
i'll effect, adopt them.
Mr.. Walsh's motion that the amend
ments be printed and made a speca
order for 2:30 p. IN. Monday, to be con
sldered in connection with Ii. F. No. %
prevailed. The committee then arose
and reported progress.
The house resumed the regular ordel
