that the order under which the
house has been operating for the past two
wceks, so far as the hour of meeting was
concerned, prevailed today, the public
galleries of the hall Of the house of repre-
~sentatives were flied by 10 o'clock this
morning and many members were In their
soats on h floor at that hour. When
the speaker commanded order at II,
nearly every seat in the hall was filled, an
unmistakable evidence of the general AND
individual interest In the matter in hand.
Chaplain Hathway prayed briefly for an
especial gift of wisdom and judgment to
rightly settle the great question before
the house.
After the reading Of the journal, Mr..
Viewer Of New York appeared at the bar
of the house on the arm OF his colleague,
General Tracey, and was sworn in by the
speaker.
The resolution contained in the order of
procedure on the silver question was re-
ported by the clerk, providing for a. vote
FIRST upon the free coinage of silver at the
present ratio OF 16 to 1. Representative
Bailey OF Texas asked II, in the event Of
all the amendments included IN the OK
dered bill being defeated, 1t wouRs. Se ~
order TO propose an, aduftfonaI amen onen
germane TO the subject.
Speaker Crisp replied hat as at pfesen
advised he would answer no, that the
order provides exclusively an that the
house may conclusively consider; but
when the time came TO formally present
the question the gentleman from Texas
might be heard.
Representative McMillin, ofTemessee,
decided to offer an amendin<n mt providing
far tho f,.an ,.Aitaa IN a fln rtnItat ~ hn
mines OF the United States. but Mr.. Bland
objected TO even having il read. saying
that such a proposition was not free coin
age at all.
