WASHINGTON. April 1.-THE house
To-day. by an overwhelming vote. decided
ITO adopt a quorum-counting rule, which
kfor all practical purposes is the same as
sthat which ex-Speaker Reed of Maine
linaugurated during the Fifty-first con-
Ngress, and which won for him a world
wide reputation. Neither undue excite
ment nor tumultuous scenes marked the
crushing of the old legislative barriers.
r-Afr. Reed and the republicans generally
were in a delightful humor over the vic
ItoTy they had achieved. Those who eX-
his political adv ersaries with their al
legged inconsistency were disappointed.
Only fifteen minutes on a side were al
slOwed for debate. and MIR. Reed. instead

stributed most OF il TO democrats who de-
lsired to oppose the new rule. and when

asked for more time To dole out among
Shfs friends on the other side. Messrs

Russell being the democrats who were
thus given an opportunity to protest
against the adoption Of the rule When
the vote was taken, forty-seven demo-

put an end forever to parliamentary OBJ
struction. The enforcement Of that law
will keep members at their post of duty
and the rule will prevent them from re-
fusing TO participate in legislation when
they are present.
After the adoption of the rule II only
required a few minutes to stTaighten
out the parliamentary tangle which the
house has been in for some days and
the house then quietly proceeded with
the consideration of the consular and
diplomatic bill. Mr.. Hit made strong

deputies went to the scene to protect
those who wished TO work Work pro-

morning. hut Engineer Williams becom-
ing alarmed at the aspect Of things con-
suited some Of the commissioners short
y before noon and was instructed to
quit work for the time, being Before he
returned. however. rioting began. Sheriff
Collins and Deputy Steyskal. after tele-
phoning for achievements, began to
address the mob TO pacify it. One of the
Poles began an opposition harangue.
The crowd then started 10 annihiliate the
officers and the handful of laborers at
work. At the advance the officers drew
revolvers and fired over the strikers
heads. but the mob came on and the
next volley was discharged into the
crowd Then the officers retreated slow
". firing as they went. Still the mob
followed. one man dealing the sheriff
a vicious blow on the head with his
shovels. But the helpless sheriff was
and an Evening News reporter escaped,
all being more or less pounded with
shovels. But the helpless sheriff was
brutal!y attacked. The mob then scat
tered. leaving the sheriff unconscious on
the field.
Sheriff Collins regained consciousness
shortly after , O'Clock. He had bad
cash on the head, severe painful cuts
and bruises about the body and almost
bled to death from lacerated leg. His
physician reported tonight that he would
probably pull through.
In Fighting Mood.
During the afternoon some twenty
Poles were arrested which intensified
the bitterness and this evening the stu
alton is being vindictively discussed by
crowds Of Poles I'm various parts of the
city. II is rumOTed that they will attack
the Jail tonight. but this is not believed.
Extra officers are on duty to preserve
the peace. whatever may occur. Many
more arrests are expected but it is dill
cult to identify the leaders in the riot.
The water commissioners viii probably
not recede from their position. but work
will proceed, if at all, under a strong
guard.
Another shooting affair took place this
evening in the rear Of the municipal court
building. a group of Poles Congregatcd
and Deputy Sheriff BOrneman recognized
one of them as one of the rioters. He
started TO arrest him when some one in
the crowd fred a revolver, hitting the
Pole in the leg. At the hospital he gave
the name of Tony Pabowski. Borneman
could not learn who fired the shot.
