Something of a sensation was caused in
the Senate Saturday after the close of The
Stars report, by Senator Morgan criticising
the course of the House, and his being
called to order by Mr.. Hale. Mr.. Morgan
declared that the Speaker of the House
was enforcing an automatic, trap-Goor rule
by which representatives were assembled
and dispersed. and he characterized this
action as an outrage against popular rights.
Mr.. Frye of Maine first gave warning that
a protest would be made against criticisms
of the other house, and when Mr.. Morgan
vehemently repeated his criticisms, Mr..
Hale of Maine made a point of order
against him. The temporary presiding of
ficer directed Mr.. Morgan to resume hts
seat and then ruled that he was out of
order. The Alabama senator, somewhat
chagrined, was about to appeal from the
decision of the chair, when Mr.. Hale with
drew his point of order and further friction
was avoided. Mr.. Morgan resumed his
criticisms during the tariff debate and
made the point that Congress was not now
in session. in accordance with the Coi.sti-
tuition, the House of Representatives hay-
ing vacated its functions.
