They will Not DO Allowed 70 Vote, How
eYer-BOth Senators Will bc
Suspended

Washington. Feb. 26. The most inn
portant development ia connection
with the Tillman-McLau'in episode of
last Saturday was the act of Senator
Frye, president pro TEN. of the SEN
ate, In ordering the clerk of the senate
to restore the names of the two South
Carolina senators to the senate roll
If the present plan is carried out this
act viii be followed by the adoption
BY the senate of a resolution before
a vote on any other subject Is taken.
practically endorsing the action OF the
president pro TEN. in ordering their
names erased, and suspending the two
senators for some definite time
The order Of Senator Frye for the
restoration Of the names to the roll
was issued almost Immediately after
the senate convened yesterday, and
was the result of a general conference
among the Republican leaders of the
senate.
When asked for an explanation Of
this order. Senator Frye said in my
rulings Monday I believed that I was
strictly within parliamentary law; that
senators in contempt are not entitled
to recognition either to speak or to
vote, and that logically their names
should not be called ] still adhere to
that opinion, but desirious of shifting
the responsibility from the chair to
the senate, ! have directed the clerl,
TO restore TO the roll the names of the
two senators from South Carolina"
When asked If the result of this
action would be the recognition OF
either of the senators TO either vote
or speak. Senator Frye replied that Il
would not, and that that was a ques
tion which must be decided by the
senate.
Inquiry In other quarters developed
the fact that there had been a confer
ence of the Republican leaders in
Senator Aldrich's committee room
and that the extent of Senator Frye'l
ruling had been every exhaustively
discussed, the conclusion being that
the action Of the president pro TEN
in striking the names of the Soutt
Carolina senators from the roll, and
his refusal of a request TO have theil
names called, was beyond precedence
in the senate and not entirely jus
titled.
On this account Il was decided that
this particular phase of the question
should not be Immediately taken VI
by the committee on privileges ant
elections. Il was decided that a reso
luton should be formulated. providing
for the temporary suspension Of th,
two senators.
The adjournment of the senate yes
terday was decided upon at the fore
noon conference of the Republican
leaders. The announcement of Repre-
sentative Crumps death had reached
the senate Monday. but was withheld
until yesterday. When the Republican
senators were informed of this fac
they were only too willing to use tn,
announcement TO secure an adjourn
ment, and their Democratic colleagues
were just as willing that it should b,
so used. All senators recognized tn,
fact that the senate is under some
what serious tension. and all felt tha'
