the majority, and Mr.. Bailey, the
democratic leader, were on their feet
Mr. Dingley was recognized by the
speaker and Immediately moved con-
currence in the senate amendment
with an amendment striking out the
clause in the first resolution which
recognized the independence of the eX-
listing repu bile. The actual form of
the motion. which was reduced to writ
ing, was as follows: Il move to con-
cur in the senate amendment to the
house joint resolution with an amend
ment striking out in the first para
graph the words. ARE and" and also
the words, and that the government
of the United States hereby recognizes
the republi of Cuba as the true and
lawful government of that island" so
chat the first paragraph of the senate
amendment will read as follows: First,
that the people of the island of Cuba of
right ought to be free and independent.
Upon his motion Mr.. Dinley de-
manded the previous question, which
served to cut off amendment and de-
bate.
Mr.. Bailey, who was still upon his
feet, asked if the motion to concur
with an amendment precluded a mo-
ton to concur and was informed by
the speaker that it would not if the
motion was voted down. 1t was a mo-
ment of intense excitement.
Mr.. Johnson rep, Ind.) and Mr..
Cromwell rep, o. were on their feet,
both demanding recognition to state
parliamentary inquiries The former
to ask unanimous consent to address
the house in antagonism to the motion,
but he was howled down. But when
Mr.. Cromwell, a moment later, dcclar~
ed that he wished to offer motion to
concur, the democratic side sent up
cheer upon cheer.
The republican side was ominously
silent. Tue speaker sternly COM
manded order and then informed Mr..
Cromwell that his motion could not
be entertained until that of Mr.. Ding.
ley had been disposed of.
Mr.. Bailey, under cover or making
p parliamentary inquiry, brought out

clearly the fact that unless the motion
of Mr.. Dingley was voted down, the
house could not vote on the motion to
concur, of which Mr.. Bromwell had
given notice.
Mr.. Sulzer dem, n. " attempted to
interpOse with the point of order that
Mr.. BromwelIs motion took prece-
dence over that of Mr.. Dingley.
When Mr.. Boutelle, of Maine, ascer-
tanned that the motion had carried by
a safe majority, he withdrew his vote
and was recorded present.
The announcement of the vote 49,
156 and the decisive victory was loud
ly applauded by the republicans.
Fourteen republicans voted with the
democrats and populists as follows:
Bromwell, Brown, Colson, Cooper,
(Wis), Dorr, Johnson Qnd.), Johnson
IN. d. Lorimer, Loud, Mahany, Mann,
SullOway, Warner and White, Qll.) }.
One populist, Howard, (Ala.), voted
aye with the republicans.
Cuban resolution, as amended by the
house, was received in the senate at
2:35 p. M.
Mr.. Davis addressed the senate, de-
failing the effect of the action of the
house He said many lives had passed
away while congress was debating the
question and that the Maine disaster
still remained unavenged. He thought
there should be no further delay.
Mr.. Davis thought the independence
of Cuba would quickly follow interven-
ton. In order to secure hasty action
Mr. Davis moved concurrence in the
house action.
At $40 p. m. the vote was taken on
the Davis motion to concur in the
house amendment The motion was
defeated and the senate refused to con-
cur. The vote was 50 yeas to 46 nays.
Ten republicans voted no. Senate
