ANTI-OPTION.
1t Has Probably Been Defeated
For This Session.
Col. Hstch's Unsuccessful Attempt to
Bring Up the Bill
shows That She Temper Of the House on
the Qnrstion Has Undereone = Great
Change President Cleveland IL
Opposed to the Measure.

WAsHINeroS, Feb "a The indica-
tons are that the anti-option bill has
been defeated for the present session.
The defeat OF Col. Hatch's attempts
"Wednesday 70 bring up the bill shows
the temper of the house on this ques-
tion has undergonea great change The
first attempt az Col Hatch 10 secure
consideration Of the measure was when
he fought against the consideration OF
the post Office bill when motion was
up to bring Il to the attention Of the
committee Of the whole. On yea and
nay vote for which he made fight he
was beaten by a vote Of IA to o., and
the post Office bill was taken up and
passed After that had been done he
opposed the consideration Of the Indian
affairs appropriation bill. Here again
he was knocked out. and this time by a
vote Of 1876 to az Then the speaker
thought Mr. Hatch should be punished
for his objection. and he placed the
valiant Missourian IN the chair. This
was not such an unprecedented action.
inasmuch as Hatch had presided over
the committee Of the whole when that
bill was up for some years
Col Hatch had in interviews and TO
members OF the house announced that
he would Tuesday filibuster against the
consideration of any other measure nm
til he compelled the consideration Of
the anti-option bill In these attempts
at 6libustering he was beaten twice
That showed that there Ind been a
wonderful change IN the feelings Of the
house on this question. The question
was what had caused this change.
There were many explanations. One
was that there were many members
who thought 1t would be wrong to pre-
vent the passage Of appropriation bills
in order to make a fight TO get up that
bill when these appropriation bills
would have TO b. passed or congress be
called ia extra session immediately
after the inauguration Of Cleveland,
and therefore they voted against At
tempts to prevent the consideration Of
these bills. II thishad been the reason
IL could not be said that the anti-option
bill had probably becndefeated, for there
would be other chanches to get il before
the house.
Another reason, and the one which
seemed 70 "a the ,nore accrrnto. - that
Mr. Cleveland had, ii 1 roundabout
way, let it be known that he was OPP
posed to the measure.
