Mr.. Hill turned his attention to Mr..
Chambers reference to Mr.. Roach. He
| Child could have forgiven the attack of
john Martin, "but, - said he 81 cannot
forgive the cruel, mean, contemplate,
malicious attack on Senator Roack
Mr.. Hill referred ironically to Mr..
Chambers statement that he spoke of the
subject with regret He would as soon
expect the hyena in bouncing on its vic
tim, to pause with regret. And yet the
New Hampshire Senator had "spewed
OUT this miserable and contemplate at
tack. He had revamped an old and an
cient charge, outlawed by the statute of
limitation, a charge never sustained in a
court OF justice.
Hill drew striking picture of the
coming and going OF Mr.. Roach in the
chamber, his plain and quiet habits.
And yet the malice of the New Hamp-
shire Senate had, hyena like, assaulted this
poor man" a
Hill said he hated "hypocrtes. He
referred to the fraud by which the great
| Samuel J. Tilden had been kept from the
| presidential chair
Then, turning to Chandler, he added !:
'We all remember the course of our friend
Chandler at that time in going to Florida
and stealing that state from the De-
mocracy"
There was tumultuous demonstration in
the gallery at this point, lasting half min
ute. The Vice President raped for order
and then warned the spectators that the
galleries wonld be cleared if the demon
stration was repeated.
Martin replied to Chambers reference
to him. saying no honest man 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-haif was
true that was charged against the Senator
from New Hampshire, instead of being in
the United States Senate he should be in
the penitentiary. Instead of the eagles
that had represented the great state of
New Hampshire, "a buzzard had taken
their place.
Frye at once arose and called Martin to
order.
A'itlt StdnUlllS, NHClCupoi
Henderson demanded the rule be enforced
and that the Senator take his seat
Martin took his seat.
Frye withdrew his motion calling the
Senator from Kansas to order.
Hoar at once renewed his CALL saying
he would withdraw it if Martin would
withdraw his Objectionable words.
Il cannot withdraw them," said Mar
tin. II meant no offense to the Senate
but it is only strong language that will
| meet some situations.
There was further discussion as to
whether Martin should be allowed to pro-
coed. He finally went on, withdrawing the
Objectionable words, although, he said he
could never change his mind as to their
application to the Senator from New
Hampshire. This closed the exciting
event for time, and the Senate returned
to the appropriation bill. But Chandler
again took the floor at II 80 O'Clock for
another phase of the subject. He said ne
would pass over the vituperation used
against him. He referred to the action
of Hill in gratifying his spite against
the President of the United States in
canvassing the Senate to defeat Mr..
Cleveland's nomination to the United
States Supreme Court. Chandler spoke
of Hills recent dinner at the White House,
and contrasted his 'old hostility with
his recent subserviency, which had finally
been repaid by one postmaster.
Mr.. Hill replied he could not be pur-
chased by dinner at the White House,
and had not recommended the postmaster
at Elmira referred to. Mr.. Hill reviewed
his personal relations with the President
and declared he opposed him when he was
wrong and supported him when he was
right.
Mr.. Hill closed at midnight.
AT 1926 O'Clock Friday morning the
legislative, executive and judicial appro-
priation bill was passed and the Senate
adjourned.
