MORNING SESSION.

HOUSE.
MORNING SESSION.
The atmosphere in the house was near
the zero point when the house reconvened
yesterday at 10 a. m. The wind swept
through the window frames and waved
the curtains like flags in a summer
breeze, and every member wore his coat
and walked about tho house to keep
warm. All formality was swept aside
and the usually decorous members puffed
away at their cigars with an abandon al
together out of keeping with their wonted
"formality."
The report that the Gaulke episode
would be resurrected and more trouble
promised, took lots of visitors to the cap
itol, but there was nothing done beyond
the appointment of the investigating
committee.
