marked, all the drift wood of the last
congress will be swept away before

gins. The galleries were thrOnged and
there was hardly a vacant seat on the

high and the hall echoed the cheers Of
the majority of the opposition as their
respective spokesman made effective
points. Mr.. Bailey CTeX.). who made
his debut as the leader of the minority
was favOrably received by his side,
and announced it to be the policy of
the minority not to delay the passage
of the tariff bill. Mr.. Dingley. the floor
leader of the majority, recalled the
fact that a dire prophecy of the result
OF the Mckinley bill had been made
by Secretary Carlisle. then the leader
Of the minority on the occasion of the
passage of the Mckinley law. A spe-
cial order was adopted limiting the tar
if debate according the the plan here
tOfore outlined. The rule was carried
by a strict party yOte-119 10 l32-the
