WOu1Q De enough.
Mcguire, interrupting, "You are mis-
taken. We didn't agree that two days
would be sufficient.
Catchings demanded the previous ques-
ton on his resolution. There was loud
chorus of noes, coming principally from
the Democratic side. The noes apparently
had it. On the rising vote, Reed and
almost the entire Republican side voted
aye, while the noes came again from the
Democratic side. The chair announced
136 in the affirmative and 104 in the mega
tive. The ayes and noes being demanded
by Holman, the result as announced by the
Speaker was ayes 132, noes III. The official
rollcalI, however, shows this vote, which
is considered fair test vote by the Cali
fornia representatives and greatly en-
courages them.

1t will be noticed that Hermann and
Ellis of Oregon voted for the resolution,
and their action was severely criticized by
Californians, who were greatly surprised.
Newlands of Nevada, although present
early in the day, did not respond when his
name was called. Wilson OF Washington
was absent also. Seventy-one Republicans
and sixty-three Democrats voted for the
rule, showing that it was not a party vote
The result was closer than expected by
Californians and they were greatly pleased
when. the result was announced. There
were only 255 members present out of $50,
and Boatner, Harris and the Californians
say that with more members present the
anti-railroad vote may be strengthened.
Harris and English say they know dozen
or more members who voted for the reso-
luton out of courtesy to the Rules Com
mittee who will vote against the funding
bill itself.
After more wrangling it was suggested
by Reed of Maine that the remainder of to-
day and all of tomorrow be set aside for
the bills consideration in general debate,
that Friday be reserved for District of Co.
lumbia legislation, and that on Saturday
the Reilly bill be debated under the FIVE
minute rule, when amendments may be
offered, until 4:30, when vote be taken,
and that tomorrow and Saturday
the House meet at II instead of u. This
programme was finally adopted, although
the Rules Committee had a majority on the
rollcall This concession was made on ac-
count of the vigorous fight of the opposi-
ton and because the sentiment of the
House was SO evenly divided.
The House went into the committee OF
the whole with Dockery of Missouri in the
chair.
Reilly opened the debate in favor OF
the bill, which, he said, was aimed at the
settlement of the vexed and troubled
question OF securing to the Government its
due from the Union Pacific Railroad and
its branches. He said he believed this bill
offered the best solution of the question
presented. Unless some such adjustment
was effected he declared that foreclosure
was inevitable and the Government would
be compelled in order to protect itself to
pay off the first mortgage, involving an
outlay of 1000 600, which would make
the roads cost the United States $780,
100000. In reply to question by Mr..
Dunn CD Of New Jersey, Reilly de-
MED that this bill would prevent the
Government proceeding against the 'four
robbers" as Dunn termed them. He
said the bill specifically reserved to the
Government every right of redress it pos
sessed.
