Contest cheered to the Echo.
(By the Associated Press. }

Washington, d. c., March 4.-The
speech of Representative Cannon, chair
man of the Appropriations committee
delivered after $3.50 O'Clock this morning
in the House ON the conference report on
the General Deficiency Appropriation bill

iority to rule, in view of the fact that
he is TO be the Speaker of the next
House is regarded as. foreshadowing a
contest on this question. The scene
when Mr.. Cannon delivered this speech
was the most remarkable of this Con-
gress in the House. Late as the hour
was, the weary members were set on
Ere with enthusiasm and they cheered his
Ctterances until the great hall resound-
ed with their shouts Mr.. Cannon said:
Gentlemen know that under the prac-
tice of the House and under the rules
of the Senate the great money bills can
contain nothing but appropriations in
pursuance of existing law, unless by
unanimous consent of both bodies. II
any of these bills contains legislation,
it must be by unanimous consent o. the
two bodies; and the uniform practice has
been-so far as / know-the invariable
practice mas been with the exception of
one amendment upon this bill, that when
one body objected to legislation proposed
by the other upon an appropriation bill,
the body proposing the legislation re
oedes.
in this case the trouble in arriving
at an agreement all clustered about one

by the Senate; there were many amend

The House conferees objected, and the
whole long delay has been over that one
