IL Delays District of Columbia Bust
ness Two Weeks

Owing TO the personal desire of a
member from Texas. to revenge him
self for an imaginary affront TO his dig
nifty the House was compelled to fritz
ter away the entire time between !
O'Clock and o'clock yesterday. The
supposed offense came from Mr.. Rab-
cock. chairman of the Committee on the
District of Columbia.
When Speaker Reed announced that
debate on the artillery bill had closed.
the member from Texas. asked unani-
nous consent for three minutes time to
make 4 speech Mr.. Babcock objected,
alleging as reason that it was District
day and that there were eleven import
ant measures TO be considered and time
was precious.
The gentleman from Texas subsidized
Tor time. but when a bill to amend the
charter of the Columbian College came
up the first District bill. the gentle
man from Texas aroused himself and
after a vote WAS taken demanded a di-
vision. The vote on the division was in
favor of the bin and the gentleman from
Texas then made the point of order
that there was no quorum.
The Speaker granted a call of the
House on the point of order. IL requires
thirty-nVe minutes TO call the roll of the
House and in this case il was fruitless
for there were POS yeas and l nay ana
: who had not voted. present.
Speaker Reed announced that a quo
rum was present and ordered the bill
10 third reading. The vote was an
nounCed as before and the gentleman
from Texas demanded division, and
when the result was announced, again
made the point of order that there was
no quorum present. The Speaker over
ruled the point of order and the gentle
man from Texas appealed from his de-
cisiOn. The Speaker refused 10 enter
tain the appeal and then the gentleman
from Texas demanded the ayes and
nays on the third reading of the bill.
This was ordered and thirty-five min
utes more were wasted. The bill was
passed.
Immediately afterward the bill TO eN-
tend the Capital fractions road came
up. This bin was amended four times
and on each of the amendments and the
bin itself the gentleman pursued the
same tactics 10 obtain delay. The bill
was passed a few minutes before
gentleman was avenged.
He had made the three minutes Mr.
Babcock refused to allow him for a
speech cost that gentleman five hours
to pass two bills that would have been
disposed of in an hour. besides hanging
