to go into committee of the whole.
This was objected TO, and the reading
Of the bill was proc >eded with in the
house, when, after it was read, MIR.
Eddy moved a committee of the whole,
so that amendments might be offered.
This was agreed to after a short
wrangle, but, when the motion carried,
Mr.. Banks called Mr. Eddy to the
chair, and the leader OF the opposition
found himself cut out OF the debate
by being compelled to take the chair.
The bill was read, and, on considering
the first section, Mr.. Hodson offered
several amendments increasing the
time limit from to 10 days 10 from
10 to 20 days, and providing that the
transportation companies should be
required to furnish only the equipment
in case desired equipment was in the
possession of the companies.
A wide discussion followed when
Mr. Judd offered an amendment
changing the time limit to 10 days.
This was defeated Hodson. Cobb and
Reed supported the measure. while
Jones Of Lincoln. Banks, Harris and
others opposed the amendment. On
