THE BOND RESOLUTION
Some Excitement in the House Over the
Financial Situation

Washington, Feb. 14.-Athough it was
known that an attempt would be made
today to pass the resolution authorizing
the issue of per cent gold bonds in the
House, the attendance on the floor was
not large when the Speaker called the
House to order at II o'clock. This was
probably due to the fact that many mem
bers supposed the House would meet at
noon, as usual. Despite the small attend
ance however, there was much excite
ment on the floor AS soon as the Jour
nal had been read, Mr.. Catchings, from
the Rules Committee, reported the special
order under which the House was to
operate. 1t was as follows:
Resolved, That Immediately upon the
adoption of this rule, the House shall
proceed as in Committee of the Whole in
consideration of House resolution No. 225
(the bond resolution), and at the hour of
O'Clock TINS day the previous, question
shall be considered as ordered on said
resolution, and then, without intervening
motion, votes shall be taken thereon until
the same shall have been fully disposed of.
Mr.. Catchings promptly demanded the
previous question as soon as the resou-
ton had been completed. On a rising
vote the previous question was ordered, 56
to IL.
Mr.. Picker, Republican, of South Da-
kota, made the point of no quorum but
withdrew it, and before the time for the
debate could be claimed under the rule
the vote required on the adoption of the
order. 1t resulted So to II. Mr.. Simpson,
Popullst, OF Kansas, again made the point
of no quorum. Mr.. Simpson and Mr..
Catchings, as telers, took their places
and for over half an hour they waited pa
tiently for the belated arrivals to make up
the coveted quorum. With the arrival of
members came stream of visitors in the
galleries, and at II: 80, when Mr. Catch
lngs reported quorum, the Hall of
Representatives presented an animated
appearance. The vote had resulted 1872 to
% in favor Of the special order.
Mr. Simpson, who remarked sarcastic
ally, soto voce, that he was trying to pro-
tect the President against the vindictive
assault OF Republicans, recreant Demo
Gratis and cuckoos, made no attempt to
get the years and nays, and the special
order was declared adopted
BEFORE the debate began, the Speaker
announced that he would recognize two
mem bers of the Committee on Ways and
Means, Mr.. Wilson and Mr.. Reed, in the
affirmative, and Messrs. Hopkins, Repub-
lican, of Illinois, and Bryan, Democrat,
of Nebraska, in the negative, to control
four hours of the time allotted for debate,
the remaining hour to be given to debate
under the tive-minute rule.
Mr.. Wilson, chairman of the Wavs and
Means Committee, who opened the de
bate, cautioned the House at the very
outset that unless the debate could be
restricted to the resolution from the Wavs
and Means Committee, to the exclusion
OF all partisanship it would be impossi-
Bile to vote intelligently on the question at
its conclusion.
Mr.. Wilson then proceeded to carefully
state the case, covering the ground ira

THE ISTHMUS CANAL
Bowers and deary Make a Canvass on the
Nicaragua Bill

Washington, Feb. 14.-Messrs. Bowers
and Geary of California have made pref
ty thorough canvass of the members of
the House, calling upon them to sign a
petition to the Committee on Rules, ask
ing that two days be set aside for the
Nicaragua Canal bill. They have met
with unexpected success, and the friends
of the measure feel much encouraged
Mr.. Geary has secured the signatures of
131 Democrats, and Mr.. Bowers has done
even better, obtaining the names of 81
Republicans, thus making total of 1872
or more than a majority of the entire
House. The programme OF those who
favor the measure is to persuade the
Rules Committee to bring in special
order under which they will pass the
House bill, and let it go to the Senate,
where it will, of course, undergo material
amendment. This will bring the matter
into conference and it is expected that
some kind of a compromise can be ar
ranged and ratified prior to final adjourn
