 Upon vote being taken the main question was ordered. and upon a | further vote. division was called for. MT Sollie-I vote aye for the purpose of moving to reconsider the vote. MT. Long (Walker)-I make the point | Of order the gentleman cannot vote aye | on viva Voce vote. Mr. Sollie--I stand up as the Chair | directed. and vote aye for the purpose | of moving to reconsider. The Presidential reference to the point of order made by the gentleman from Walker, the Chair Is of the opin- ion that the point of order is not well taken. In Congress they have a rule that except upon yea and nay vote a reconsideration cannot be moved In other words that it cannot be ascer- tained except by yea and nay vote whether man voted in the affirma- tive or in the negative. But all the authorities upon general parliament ary law that the Chair has been able to examine, hold that any one who voted with the affirmative of the prop osltlCn may move to reconsider and 1t is not limited to instances where the vote was taken by yeas and nays. The Chair preferred to make some state ment upon that question. since it has been raised several times. and it has, therefore. been examined carefully.
 MT. Sollie--NoW I move the reconsid- eration. which l understand don't come up until tomorrow.
