THE FIFTY-SIXTI CONGRESS,
Message Received-Death of Senators.
Elect Hayward Announced-ROb-
erts Mast Stand Aside.

Washington, Dec. 6.-Yesterday's
Session of the senate lasted two hours
and 40 minutes, practically the entire
time being consumed in the reading
Of the presidents message.
The reading was largelyperfunctory,
few senators according it any atten-
ton.
The announcement of the death of
Senator-Elect Monroe L. Hayward, of
Nebraska, was received by the senate
with sincere regret. Although he was
not officially a member of the body he
was well known to many of the sena-
tors, and by them was held in high re-
gard.
At the conclusion of the reading of
the message the senate adopted reso-
~lutions of regret, presented by Senator
Thurston, of Nebraska, and, as a mark
OF respect, adjourned Immediately.
After an interesting debate of three
hours the house, by a vote of 3O2 to 80,
adopted the resolution offered by Mr..
Tayler, of Ohio, Monday, for the APP
pointment of a special committee to
investigate the charges against Brig
ham III. Roberts, the Mormon repre-
sentative-elect from Utah.
Previously the house had rejected
a substitute resolution offered by Mr..
Richardson, the leader of the minority,
to allow MI. Roberts to be worn in
and to send the whole ease to the judi
ciary committee.
This substitute resolution, however,
by NJ means commanded the full DEM
ocratic strength. Only 81 members
voted for it. OF the 80 who Their voted
against the Tayler resolution, all were
democrats except two, Mr.. Loud, a
California republican, and Mr.. New
lands, a silverite from Nevada.
By the terms of the resolution Mr..
Roberts is not only excluded from all
participation in the proceedings of the
house until the committee reports, and
the house passes upon his case, but he
is denied a seat in the hall. Whether
this will be interpreted TO deny Lin
admission within the chamber pending
the disposition of his case is vet to be
decided.
The reading of the presidents mes
sage was completely overshadowed by
the dramatic proceedings which result
ed in the action of the house. The gal
ieries were thronged with spectators,
mostly women, who sat patiently
through the three weary hours that
preceded the debate and then waited
on three hours until it was concluded.
The most remarkable feature of the
debate was the fact that Mr.. Roberts
presentation of his own side of the
case, which lasted almost an hour. be-
so absorbing that he won tie
sympathy of many of these in the GAL
leries, and was several times showered
with applause. 1t was evident that he
that the house was everwhelm-
against him. and at times he
spoke fiercely and defiantly.
Mr.. Tayler conducted the case upon
his side. Mr.. Richardson championed
his substitute resolution.
During the debate Mr.. Grosvenor
rose to Indignantly repel an i%nsinua-
of Mr.. Roberts that the president
knowingly appointed men guilty Ct
Dolygamy to federal offices in Utah.
