the Senate.
A QUORUM FAILS TO SUPPORT HIN.

Republicans Force an Adjournment-The
BrawIey Bank Bill Repeating the Tax
State Banks and Then Rejects the
BnI-Detailed Nay Vote on the Amend
ment, and Its Composition.
WASHINGTON, June 7.-There was hard
ly ripple on the monotany of the doings
of the senate as it slowly worked its way
through the details of the tariff bill. un-
til near the usual hour for the senate to
adjourn Platt, Wasburn, Vest, Teller,
Lodge and Allen got into debate on
barley, wheat, oatmeal, etc, lasting three
quarters of an hour after the usual time
of adjournment. PETER had stated that
he desired to address the senate but did
not care to do so at that time. This
aroused Harris, who declared with visible
impatience that senators should suffer
some personal Inconvenience in order to
make some progress with this bill AL
ready sixty-four days had been spent in
debate upon it, and only thirty-three
pages had been disposed of. Aldrich said
unless the senate consented to adjourn by
O'Clock he would insist upon a motion
to go into executive session.
Harris Had to Yield at Last.
81 will submit to nothing" said Harris
with great emphasis, under threats"
.'Then ! move to go into executive ses-
| sion," said Aldrich.
The motion was not debatable and the
| roll was called. The Republicans, save
PettiCrew, Teller, Dubois and Washburn,
refrained from voting and the Democrats
| were unable to muster a quorum, the
vote resulting to 36 y call of the SEN
ate followed and showed the presence of
| forty-tive senators, one more than quo
rum, and the vote again recurred on
| Aidrich's motion. Again the quorum dis
| appeared. and thereupon Harris with
| good grace yielded TO the inevitable and
at 4 o'clock the senate adjourned.
| House Kills the ErIwIcy Bill.
The house proceedings Were dry enough
| bat something important was accom-
piished, for the Brawley bill was defeated
| 10y a viva vocc vote after a roll call on an
amendment TO repeal the tax on state
banks altogether. The men who voted no
! on this amendment Were Il: in number
and those VINO voted aye were lO2, Crisp
| being OF the number. The affirmative vote
was entirely Democratic and the negative
was cast by IS Republicans, - Democrats
and popul!sts.
