Mr.. Hoar then took the floor. He said he
could not vote for the resolutions as amend
ed because they undertook to rob the Pres
ident of a constitutional prerogatlVe. EUR
thermore, to carry the resolution INTO erect
the American forces in Cuba would be I'M
der the command of the insurgent officers
Otherwise the presence of our troops there
would be hostile to the Insurgents. Mr.
Hoar's speech was the last display of ora
tory of the day.
THE LAST ROLL CALL
At five minutes past o'clock the third
and final reading of the resolution as
amended was begun. Immediately after
wards came the question: Shall the resolu-
ton pass?" There was general demand
for a vote and no expression on the ques-
ton and a roll call was ordered. 1t pro-
ceeded in the midst of a profound calm.
Not single pair was announced. All the
senator's, with the one exception of Mr..
Walthan were present and he had released
Mr. Spooner from his engagement to pair
with him. The roll call resulted in the
passage of the resolution by the vote of 81
to p and was as follows:
Yeas-Alen Bacon, Baker, Bate, Berry,
Butler, Cannon. Garter Ghandler, Chiffon ton

There was some confusion, but no demon
stration, when the result was announced.
The title and preamble of the Senate resolu-
ton were then substituted for the House
title and preamble without division. Mr..
Davis moved that the Senate should insist
upon its amendments and ask for con-
ference. This request was met with cries OF
mol nor and il was soon made manifest
that many senator's considered that there
was possibility that the House would con-
cur with the Senate resolution If this mo-
ton were not entered I'm the Senate. on
this suggestion MIR. Davis withdrew his
motion and In its stead entered "a motion To
adjourn. Before the motion was put and
stood adjourned until Monday at II o'clock
half the senator's had left their seats and
fifteen minutes afterwards the great white
Capitol which had been such Il scene OF
life and such center of interest for the
long day was deserted by all save the
newspaper workers and a few employees.
