ian debate again occupied the attention of
the house. night session being held TO
permit of speeches by those who desired to
talk, but who otherwise would not have
had an opportunity, ON account OF the
limited time allowed. The debate is at
tracing much less attention in the house
than was anticipated. This is perhaps
partly due to abandonment OF the policy
OF restoration by the administration. and
partly 10 the fact that the long tariff de-
bate has surfeited the house. The princi-
pal speeches TODAY were by johnson OF In
diana. BonteIle. PATTERSON of Tennessee,
and Black of Illinois.
MeGann. Dem. of Illinois, tried tn Sc
cure unanimous consent for consideration
of a resolution to investigate the action of
Judge Jenkins in tho Northern Pacific
railroad case. the employees of which
road he had enjoined from striking but
objection was made. When unanimous
consent was refused for consideration of
the resolution it vas referred to the Judi
ciary committee. McGann says he will
endeavor 20 have that committee report
back the resolution at once. He would
have secured immediate consideration of
the resolution today had it not been for
the objection of outhw ate. The latter
explained to Mc6ann that the attendance
IN the house was too small tor eonsidera-
ton OF such an important subject. There
is little doubt of a favorable report on it,
with provision that a subcommittee of
the Judiciary committee be authorized 10
prosecute an investigation and send for
persons and papers. The resolution fol-
lows:
''Resoired. That the committee on Judi
c!ary is directed TO make such investiga-
ton into all matters and things herein
alleged and TO report to the house whether
or not Judge Jenkins. judge of the United
States circuit court for the Seventh circait,
has abused the powers or process of said
court or oppressively exercised the same,
or has used his office as such judge to in
timidate or restrain employees OF the North
ern Pacific railroad or officers of labor
organizations to which said employees or
any of them were affiliated in the exercise
OF their rights and privileges under the
laws of the United States, and ii they
shall find that said judge has abused the
process OF said court, as alleged. or op-
pressiveiy exercised tie powers of has
office jndge Of said court To the injury
OF the employees Of said railroad and
others, then TO report whether such act 90
doings of said Judge warrant the present
and further. to report what action. IL any,
should be taken by congress to prevent a
recurrence OF the conditions now laid by
said order and injunction upon the rail-
way employees of the Northern Pacific
road, those engaged on other roads. officers
and members of labor organizations
throughout the country, and all persons
generally"
The Hawaiian debate was resumed by
<f
tive minutes, but before he had proceeded
one Cultivate, Dem., of Ohio. called him
TO order for parliamentary language.
The language TO which Cultivate OBJ
jected was as follows: Strange to tell,
at the command of their master, the
great Grover Cleveland. his cuckoos in
the house and senate, staunch Southern
Democrats. the loudest shouters for
white mans government. disregard all
their ancient traditions about white mans
supremacy and white mans govern
ment." The speaker ruled the language
supplementary. and meantime Morse's
time had expired.
Johnson. Rep. of Indiana. followed in
strong arrangement OF the adminstra-
ton for trying TO restore the dcposed
queen. Patterson, Dem, of Tennessee,
followed: The sugar interests, he argued,
were behind the annexation movement
IL the islands could have been annexed
unde: the bounty clause of the Mckinley
Law. the sugar Planters there would re-
ceiye from the United States treasury s5o,-
oJo,ooo. The desire of the sugar planters to
put their hands into the pockets of the
American people iay at the bottom
OF the revolution of lssss. said the speaker
impressiyeiy. Great haste vas manifested
TO secure annexation, he said, because
those in the conspiracy knew that Grover
Cleveland. when inaugurated, would never
give his consent to the territorial extern
sion of the L nited States 10 those islands
., COO miles beyond our Western shore.
Wheeler, Dem. of Alabama and Oates,
Dem, of Alabama continued the debate
The former delivered eniogY on Cleve-
land: the latter argued on behalf of the
adoption Of the McCreary resolution from
4 legal standpoint. Boutells. Rep. OF
Maine, who followed Oates, after review
ing the contents of his resolution, repro-
batting the policy of the administration,
added: Whatever may be the tardy ex-
preston Of this house, ! claim a favorable
verdict on my indictment from the Amer
lean people" Continuing, he followed
