Tho Senators In Caucus.
WASHINGTON Feb. 27.--The proceedings
In the house yesterday were full OF excit-
Ing incidents. Mr.. Bland, being unable
70 secure q quorum, concluded to allow
the debate on the bill to proceed, at the
same time claiming that he would return
TO the assault today
Two sensational speeches followed, one
by Mr.. Pence (Colo), who denounced the
Republicans for submitting to the crack
of ex-Speaker Reeds whip, and warned
him that II the election Of president were
thrown into the house in 1895 he would
rue his filibustering course and the other
by Mr.. Fithian Qlls.), who condemned In
the severost terms the action of his Demo
cratic colleagues who were taking part In
the filibuster.
Toward the close of the session Mr..
Pence's reflections on Messrs. Pickler and
Ellis (Ore) drew forth from them a state
ment, which Nh Pence's characterized as
absolutely untrue" He was twice called
to order, and the house. by a vote, refused
to allow him to proceed. 1t Is probable
that Mr.. Pence's speech will be the occa-
sion Of further comment.
The senate held but a short session yes

CHICAGO, Feb. 27.-Judge Grosscup rem
dered a decision in the United States dis
tlict court which will make the Interstate
commerce law practically imperative, for
the reason that it will in the future be i'm
possible to convict any one for acts violat-
ing its provisions. The court held that
General Freight Agent James, of the Lake
Shore road, and Gordon Mcleod, agent of
the Merchants Dispatch Freight line, the
witnesses who refused to answer questions

in the position they took Both refused
to answer, on the ground that every man
