SNEAK THIS NASTY CHARGE
before the public" Mr.. Hill turned
his attention to Mr.. Chandler's refer
| ence 20 Mr.. Roach. He HilD could
have forgiven the attack on New York
| or the attack on Honest John Mar
tin, but, said he, II can never for
| give the cruel, mean, contemplate,
malicious attack on Senator Roach
Mr.. Hill referred ironically to Mr..
/ Chambers statement that he spoke of
| the subject with regret. And yet the
| New Hampshire senator had "Spewed
F., out this miserable and contemplate
! attack. He had revamped an old and
5, ancient charge, outlawed by the stat
ute of limitation, charge never sus-
tanned in court or by a jury.
Mr.. Hill drew a striking picture of
! the coming and going of Mr.. Roach
| from the chamber, his plain and quiet
habits. and yet the malice of the New
! Hapshire senator had, hyena-lil1e, as
sailed this poor man. Mr.. Hill said he
! hated hypocrites." He referred to
! the fraud by which the great Samuel
| j. Tilden had been kept from the pres
| idential chair" Then turning to Mr..
Chandler, he added:
I'VE all remember the course Of our
friend Chandler at that time in going
to Florida and stealing that state from
the Democracy"
| There was a tumuituous demonstra-
| ton in the gallery at this point, last
hol he
i raped vehemently for order, and then
warned the spectators that the gal
! leries would be cleared if the demonsra-
ton was repeated.
MARTIN STIRS UP A STORM.
I Mr.. Martin, of Kansas, replied to Mr..
| Chambers reference to him. Mr.. Mar
! tin said no honest man ever questioned
! his right to his seat. No man had
ever charged that he bought his seat in
! the senate, but could the senator from
. New Hampshire say as much? If one
half was true that was charged against
/. the senator from New Hampshire, ''in-
stead of being in the United States SEN
ate he should be in the penitentiary.
! Instead of The eagles that had repre-
sented the great state of New Hamp-
l
Mr. Frye at once arose and called
Mr.. Martin to order. Mr. Martin re-
mained standing, whereupon Mr. Man
derson demanded that the rule he en-
forced and the senator take his seat.
Mr.. Martin took his seat. Mr., Frye
withdrew his words calling the senator
to order. Mr.. Hoar at once renewed the
call, saying he would withdraw it if
4 Il, I,;r.
jectionable words.
Il cannot withdraw them" said Mr..
Martin. 'I meant no offense to the
senate, but it is only strong language
that will meet some situations"
There was further discussion as TO
whether Mr.. Martin should be allowed
to proceed. He finally went on, with
drawing the Objectionable words, al
| though he said he could never change
his mind as to their application to the
senator from New Hampshire.
This closed the exciting event for a
time and the senate returned to the ap-
preparation bill, although there was a
buzz of animated comment over the
stirring scenes of the evening.
CHANDLER RALLIES AGAIN.
But Mr.. Chandler again took the floor
! at II 80 o'clock for another phase of the
subject. He said he would pass over
the vile vituperation used against him.
If the senate did not see fit to sustain
its dignity and object, he could say
nothing. He would leave his speech to
go to the public alongside the others
| he had made. He referred to the ac-
tion of Mr.. Hill in gratifying his spite
against the president of the United
States" in canvassing the senate to Ge-
feat Mr.. Cleveland's nominations TO
the United States supreme court. Mr..
| Chandler spoke of Mr.. Hill's recent din
! ner at the White house, and contrasted
Ibis old hostility with his recent sub
serviency," which had finally been re-
paid by one postmaster.
Mr.. Hill replied that he could not be
purchased by a dinner at the White
house, and had not recommended the
postmaster at Elmira referred to.
| Mr.. Hill reviewed his personal rela-
tions with the president, and declared
| he opposed him when he was wrong
and supported him when he was right.
| Mr.. Hill closed at ten minutes be-
fore midnight.
| This ended the exciting incident Mr.
Roach was several moments on his
feet, during which time he declared
to senatorial friends that he would re-
| ply to Mr.. Chandler, but was per-
suaded to refrain from so doing to-
night.
At 1925, Friday morning, the legis-
! lative, executive and judicial appropri-
alton was passed, and the senate ad-
| journed.
