WASHINGTON. Jan. 2o.--Mr. Quay was OF
hand this morning at tho very beginning
OF to-day's session OF the Senate with Al
objection TO the consideration Of q resolu
ton offered by Mr. Platt OF New York.
Mr.. Hale (Rep.. Maine) made vigorous
protest against the objection. The resolu
tion was privileged. he ssid. THE Senator
from Pennsylvania has conhscated the time
of the Senate after . o clock, said Mr.. Hale
and now he seeks to confscate the routin,
morning hour. He proposes ruthlessly anc
pitilessly to tie the hands Of this Senate anc
prevent II from doing any other business
than that demanded by the Senator from
Pennsy lvania.'
MIR. Quay replied with considerable anger
There has been a deal Of snarling and
sneering here against the majority OF the
Senate. l am not alone In this attitude

THE Senator does not represent q ma
jority Of the Senate. replied Mr. Hale. He
assumes 10 represent q majority on GER

offered to determine whether or not he
has a majority. but In the meantime are
we to have the public business tied UP at
the dictation of the SenatOrp j hope the
Senator from New York will insist upon
mis- resolution. We may as well face the
situation right now"
But Mr.. Platt did not make the motion
suggested.
The Diplomatic and Consular Appropria-
ton bill was called up by Mr., Hale. tenn
porariy laying aside the Statehood bill.
No objection to this was made.
Mr.. Lodge Rep.. Mass offered an amend
ment to the bill providing for the reor rganiza-
ton Of the consular service, but i was ruled
out on point Of order. The bill was then
passed
Mr. Foraker demanded the regular order
the Statehood bill Mr.. Aldrich thought
Il was too late for MIR. Burnham to Resume
his speech and moved adjournment. The
motion was lost. The regular order was
then resumed. but Mr.. Foraker yielded for

Agriculture all powers heretofore con-
ferred upon the Secretary OF the Treasury,
in preventing the expectation OF infected
cattle and other live stock. and authorizes
the Secretary Of Agriculture to take any
needful steps TO suppress and extirpate

and other dangerous and contagious dis
eases. The Senate added a section max ing

WHY COAL rs SCARCE AND HIGH.
Congress Inquiry Being Made In BostoI
on the New England situation.

Boston, Jan. 2o.--Between the legisla-
tive committee and the one started by
Congress. the question Of why there has
been q scarcity Of coal in New England
will be thoroughly threshed out soon. The
investigation begun by Congress is in charge
OF subcommittee Of the House Com
mittee on Merchant Marine and Fisheries,
and its purpose is TO find out about coal
transportation. The members Of the COM
mittee here are Representatives Littlefield
Of Maine. Miner OF Wisconsin, Green OF
Massachusetts,. Davis Of Florida and
McDermott OF New Jersey.
The committee will hold three sessions
daily until the investigation is ended and
a large number OF subpu mas have been
issued to Boston coal dealers. ship owners,
agents and others. Chairman Littlefield
says the committee intends to try to get al
the condition Of the coal trade In relation
10 the difficulties experienced during the
present winter, including the cost and
circumstances attending transportation.
This morning the members Of the COM
mittee were a trihe late in reaching the
Chamber Of Commerce building. where the
investigation is being held. Finding but
had a dozen summoned by telephone.
Henry T. Schaeffer, agent Of the Sterling
Coal Company of Philadelphia, the first
witness, attributed the scarcity. and high
cost of coal to the congestion Of traffic on
the soft coal carrying roads, but added that
there were more buyers than there was
coal He said that II the coal roads had
engines and cars enough to handle the coal
mined the price would 60 down at once.
In answer to queS, ions asked 10y Mr.
Littlcfield, Mr.. Sc hgi ffer said that the mine
operator was getting IS or 30 a ton at the
mine and the middle man profit. Freights
had gone up, he thought becau OF the
strike.
Returning to the question Of freight con
gesi ion, Mr. Schacf-er said the Pennsyl-
vania Railroad had 500 OF his companys
cars but II couldn't get them moved. lie
thought other companies owning coal carr
were in the same condition. He could sug-
gest no relief for congestion
The testimony Of the shipping men was
aimed par, ,icularly al the Met all bill which
alh W. foreign vessels TO er gage in the
coast wise business for a period OF thirty
days. The men interested in vessel prop
erty agreed that there were enough Ameri-
can bottoms TO carry coal for the entire
Atlantic coast. Upon motion of Repre-
sentative McDermott, the committee de-
cided not to delve into the question OF coal
carrying vessels any further.
