Mr.. BAYARD is ASSAILED
A Massachusetts, Congressman Urges His
Impeachment.
FOR 'fUNAMERICAN UTTERANCES.
A Speech Delivered in Edinburgh, Scotland
in Which he Denounced Protection as
a Species of Socialism, the Sub
jeot of Sensational Charges.

WASHINGTON, Dec. 1.-Representative
William Il. Barrett, of Massachusetts, en-
joys the distinction of being the author of
the first thrilling incident in the present
house of representatives He threw a
bombshell into that body soon after it con
vened by offering a resolution impending
Thomas f. Bayard, ex-secretary of state.
and now United States ambassador to the
court of st. James, for high crimes and
misdemeanors The grounds advanced in
the resolution were the utterances of Mr..
Bayard delivered before the Edinburgh.
Scotland, Philosophical Institute on Nov. z
In this speech Mr.. Bayard spoke of
protection" as a form of "state social
ism, and said it had done more TO "foster
glass legislation, breed ineaualitv cor.
fupt public life, lower the tone of national
representation and divorce ethics from
politics" than any other single cause.

by United States ambassador before n

were in serious disregard of his proprieties
and obligations and calculated to iniure
our national reputation. 1t concluded by
instructing the foreign affairs committee,
which was empowered to send persons
and papers, to investigate and report "by
impeachment or otherwise" Mr. Barrett's
resolution had been preceded by one of his
colleague, Mr.. Mccall in milder tone
Mr.. McCall's resolution went down be-
fore an objection, and then it was that Mr..
Barrett sprang his impeachment resolu-
tlon as one constituting question of priv
ilege. Mr.. Crisp, the leader of the minority,
made an unavailing attempt to contest the
privileged nature of the resolution. Speaker
Reed overruled his point of order and the
resolution was thrown into the arena of
debate, where it remained for three hours.
The Republicans took the position that
Mr. Bayard's speech constituted an offense
against the country that called for stern
rebuke, if not his recall. The Democrats
took the position that Mr.. Bayard's utter
ances did not by any stretch of the imag-
ination constitute grounds for impeach-
ment, Mr.. Turner applauding them and
asserting that they were not even breach
of propriety. They took the position that
the resolution was largely "buncombe' to
give the Republicans an opportunity to
air their protection views.
Those who took part in the debate were
Messrs. Barrett, Dingley, Grow, Hit and
Cannon, Republicans, and Messrs. Crisp,
McCreary, Money and Turner, Democrats
Mr.. Hit, who will be chairman of foreign
affairs, advised Mr. Barrett to amend the
resolution so as to strike out the words
instructing the committee to report by
impeachment or otherwise" and this was
finally done. Mr.. Crisp moved to refer
the resolution to the judiciary committee,
which being done by a strict party vote
90 to 207-the Democrats contented them
selves with simply voting viva voce against
the resolution, which was adopted with
out division.
The senate was in session less than two
hours. The proceedings consisted of the
introduction of about hundred bills and
a speech on the Monroe doctrine by Sena-
tor Cullom. Mr.. Cullom' speech was read
from manuscript and was attentively re-
ceiyed by the senate He took strong
grounds for an affirmative policy in order
to convince other nations of their error in |.
suppOsing this doctrine to be impOtent
for our guidance, and contended for the |
propriety of congressional action, saying |
that diplomacy had been sufficiently tried |
and had been found wanting.
