The "Omnibus Resolution" Considered by
That Body

that he had expected to call up TODAY
the Brawley bill to suspend the oper-
atoms of the 10 per cent. tax as to the
certificates Of clearing houses and other
forms of Indebtedness issued in lieu of
money last summer. but in view OF the
general demand for private bill day
he would not antagonize the motion,
but would give notice that tomorrow
he would call it up Immediately after
the committees had been called for re-
ports.
Then long discussion on the parlia-
mentary procedure was precipitated by
q point of order made by Burrows.
What is known as the Omnibus resolu-
tion" was read by the clerk. This was
resolution coming from the con- mittee
on war claims punching thirty-seven
bills in one resolution, referring them
to the court of claims Tor adiudic alton.
Mr.. Burrows point was that such a
proceeding WA unauthorized by the
rules; that eacn bill must be acted on
separately; and that the committee had

BUTTZ FOUND GUILTY.
The Committoe Investigating the Charges
of Bribery Have Made Their Report


WASHINGTON, May 25. The special
committee appointed to investigate the
charges OF attempted Senatorial bribery
on the part OF Charles w. Buttz to day
submitted their report to the Senate.
BUTTE is found by the DOM mittee to have
made an attempt at bribery, despite
his denial, and Senators Hunton and
Kyle are exonoreted from all blame.
The report of tho committee consists
of two printed pages, and the testimony
given before the committee, rs pages.
Among other things the report says:
at appears from the testimony sub.
mitted that certain Charles w. Buttz,
of North Dakota, but domiciled in
Washington since December last. where
he has been engaged as lobbyist and
claim agent, did, on or about the first
of April OF this year, at the house OF
Senator Hunton, in Warrenton. Va,
during the absence OF tho Senator, say
to his son, Bppa Hunton, Jr., that he

This offer was declined W..

testimony, and the whole ma
communicated by him to his
Senator Hunton availed himself
first opportunity to disclose the m
to certain of his friends in the Sell
as shown in the testimony, and was
no other way connected with the tran.
actions.
ut is also established by the testl-
mony that the same Charles W. BUTTE,
during the month OF March last past,
approached Senator Kyle. of South
Dakota, with 3 proposition that $4,000
would be paid to him (Senator Kyle), il
ne would vote against the pending tariff
bill. The said Butte. when making this
proposition, also sta ted to Senator KYLE
that the money was in the hands or con.
troll OF an agent of certain bankers and
capitalists Of New York City, and that
the money was in Washington.
senator Kyle's testimony Is con-
hrmed by that OF Mr.. Duncan McFar-
lane, clerk to the committee on educa.
tion and labor. Senator Kyle Is shown
by the testimony to have communicated
this interview with Butiz and the offer
made TO him to several Senators shortly
after the said interview took place.
Your committee are abundantly
justified In stating that the facts above
recited have been established by the
evidence, Notwithstanding the denial on
the part OF the said Charles w. Buttz,
and they refer the Senate to the testi-
mony in detail in support of this finding.
Your committee find nothing from
their investigation to impeach, in the
least degree, the honored name of Sem
ators Hunton and Kyle.
IF, during the further prosecution of
the investigation with which your com
mittee is charged, any evidence is dis
covered or suggested tending to support
the statements made to Senator KYLE,
or to Mr.. McFarlsne. or to Mr.. Eppa
Hunton, Jr., by Charles w. Buttz, it will
be promptly laid before the Senate. I'm.
til then your committee are compelled,
upon all the evidence submitted to
them, to the conclusion that the state
ments OF Charles w. Butte are wholly
untrustworthy."

After carefully examining both men
she declared that she had met neither
