tBY TELEGRAPH TO THE TRiBUsEl
Washington Ma. 1.-THE first open breach IN
the amcable agreement under which the Tarn
bill has been consdered in the Senate for sew
eral weeks past occurred late this afternoon
when Mr. Harris. the Democratic manager IN
parliamentary charge Of the BILL insisted on
moving a recess until tomorrow morning, in
stead OF an adjournment. AS recess would
continue the legislative day Of May II indeh-
nitely and thus abolish the abbreviated morn
ing hour" which is now so essential to the
transaction OF incidental business, the Republi-
cans regarded Mr. Harris's sudden determination
to get rid Of the morning hour" as an uncaiied-
for severity, and declined to give their aid IN
fastening this new parliamentary programme on
the Senate
There being less than q quorum Of Democrats
M the Capitol or indeed, within the city, the
"narIiamentary manager Of the bill soon found
a deadlock on his hands. BY refusing TO allow
an adjournment on the disclosure OF no quorum
Mr. Harris committed himself to the necessity
Of sending out the Sergeant-at-Arms Tor ao-
sentees and this officials search covered many
weary hours lasting from o'clock until ABOUT
1890 AS no voting quorum could be secured al
though a nominal quorum was finally optained'
all Mr. Harris's efforts proved quite useless
and he was forced to yield to the usual adjourn
ment
Mr. Harris might have yielded earlier ana
saved much trouble, for with the Senate as
evenly divided as II Is. no legislative order OF
business can be enforced which is not reasonably
liberal and personally acceptable to the minority
About 3 o'clock this afternoon a paper was
handed to the sergeant-at-arms OF the oenale
unon which was written the following
