Washington. Jan. s-The Carlisle
currency bill. which has been under
debate in the House for about two
weeks was ignomlniously ditched to-
day. 1t had not strength enough to ssm-
mount the first parliamentary obstacles
Ep1aeed i'm its path. The Committee on
Rules. in obedience to the decree Of the
democratic caucus on Monday, brought
Tim an order to close general debate
and proceed under the five-minute rule
Iuntil Saturday, when the final vote
Should be taken. but the supporters OF
| the bill showed lamentabIe weakness.
They were unable to order the previ-
Gus question, the demand therefor be-
Ting refused, first BY a rising vote OF
| 90 to 101, and then on a yea and nay
vote by 124 to 129. The advocates OF
the bill were dumbfounded when they
discovered that they had been beaten
| in the preliminary slxirInish and the
order was withdrawn. This was the
| first reverse the Committee on Rules
had suffered in four years. An analysis
of the vote shows that all Of the 12z
Votes in favor Of the motion were cast
/ by Democrats, while SO Republicans.
80 Democrats. and Populists voted
| against it. OF the 80 Democratic votes
against the motion, it was pointed our
that "A were cast by Democrats de-
Heated for reelection. After the vote
the diplomatic and postoffice appropri-
alton bill were passed. The former car

There was a good attendance ON the
floor of the House when Speaker Crisp
dropped the gavel today, as notice had
been given that a special order to ter
inmate the debate on the currency bill
would be reported from the COMMITTEES
ION Rules, and the prevailing belief was
1 that the fate Of the bill would be de-
termined today.
The conference report on the military
academy appropriation bill was adopt
led.

House for final vote ON Saturday inn
Irnediately after the morning hour.
Outhwafte demanded the previous
: luuestion when the reading Of the rule
had been completed. Some confusion
. was caused by a volley Of questions
from members, which followed Outh'
