tenant Colonel Slower had made the state

Mr.. Gallinger said he did not propose
TO enter into q personal controversy with
the Senator from South Dakota. The Ad-
ministration had asked nothing Of him
and he had rendered no service 10 the
Administration. The Senator's personal
attack upon him was unworthy Of further
notice

sion bills

anything except the debates of Congress.
The other was for a joint committee 10

tually delivered

Taken Up by the House i'm Committee
Of the Whole

After the Eddy Free Home bill was dis
posed Of yesterday the Sundry Civil Appro-
priation bill was taken up and the House
went into Committee OF the Whole to con-
slider it.
Mr. Cannon. in charge of the bill. said
he desired to secure unanimous consent 10
dispense with general debate. and all but
succeeded, when objection was interposed
by Mr. De Almond. He said that the prac-
tice Of dispensing with debate on the great
appropriation bills was a mistake. The
least that could be properly expected. he
said, was that debate should run for the
rest OF the day.
To secure the purpose he had in view,
Mr.. Cannon moved that the committee

incidentally criticised Mr. Livingston for
agreeing 10 close debate in ten minutes
Mr.. Livingston retorted that he knew of
no one besides a gentleman from North
Carolina who wanted to speak. and that
he was satisfied with the arrangement, and
he asked Mr. De Almond what was his rea-
son for directing.
Mr. De Almond replied that 1t devolved
upon the gentleman who made such an
agreement to set forth the reasons for il.
icalIy that these general debates amounted
to but very little. either to the members.
to the House, or to the country. That was
the reason for his action and the attitude
Of the gentleman from Missouri (Mr. De
Armondl did not satisfy him.
Mr. De Armond-It is not a source OF
profound grief TO me that the gentleman is
lot satisfied with my action.
Finally an arrangement was made TO
close general debate in half an hour Five
minutes were occupied by Mr.. Lacey in
announcing that he would print speech
giving certain statistics Comparing the
Administration Of Mr. Mckinley with that
Of the late lamented Democratic Admin
istration."
Mr.. Neville hope the gentleman will
show the similarity Of the two upon the
financial question.
Mr. LACEY certainly shall. 1t is the
only good thing in its history.
