VOTE FOR ANYTHING.
Sentiment Unanimous in Support
 of the President.
PARTY LINES ARE NOT CONSIDERED
The Attitude of Speaker Reed and Others Becoming Better Understood, and It Is No Djscredit to Any
 of Them.

WASHINGTON. March e.-The senti- ment at the capitol and especially on the house side. is unanimous in support of the action of the president in deelin- ing to recall Gen. Lee. The immense gravity of the situation seemed pro foundly to impress the members who stood about the lobbies before the ho3se met. Without regard to party, all united in commenting the president s firm stand, and the unanimous desire expressed was in support of any meas Hre he may deem necessary to maintain the American contention.
 Representative Livingston, of Geor- gia, minority member of the appro- prjations committee, and Mr Bodine. a minority member of the naval affairs committee, both declared that they would vote for anything the president asked Congress ought to be solidlF behind the president now said Mr Livingston. ~This Is no time for criti- cism or pickering of any Kind. h the face of impending foreign war part lines should be forgotten.
