THE CONSTRUCTIVE REcEss.

According 10 our Washington dispatches. the
Senate Judiciary Committee is about to take a
hand in solving an interesting puzzle in consti-
tuuonal construction. In response to a resolution
introduced by Mr. Tillman and passed bv the
Senate, the committee will undertake to define
more clearly just what constitutes a "recess of
Congress In doing so it will have to pass On
The disputed theory Of the constructive re-
cess and TO clear up certain contradictions
which have arisen both in applying that theory
and in attempting TO deny its validity Mr.
Tfllman was particularly exercised because an
appointment obnoxious to him was renewed in
december, 1903, on the suppostion that a legal
recess had occurred between the ending of the
nrst or extraordinary session OF Congress and
the beginning Of its second or regular session
The first session ended at noon on December I
and the second session began a few moments
later. Mr. Tillman wants TO know whether this
interval in time-such as it was-constituted
real recess, and so empowered the President to
remake appointments which had failed of CON
drmation at the thirty-day extra session.
The question has already come up in A slight
ly different form in the other house of Con
gress. In that branch the Appropriations Com
mittee, following what it held to be the law
reported an appropriation for mileage for the
second session. An effort was made by two
members OF the House Judiciary Committee
Mr. Parker, OF NeW-Jersey, and Mr.. LittlefieId
of Maine-to have this mileage allowance strick-
en- ont of the bill containing it, on the point Of
order that mileage had already been voted for
the first session and that the first and second ses-
sions had been merged into a single continu-
Gus unit. The House oyerruled the point and
sustained the Appropriations Committee. Rut
after deciding that il could legally and prop-
erly vote itself two mileage allowances. the
lower chamber killed the mileage item on the
ground that no member could actually have
had chance 10 travel home in the intermjs-
sion between the two sessions.
The Houses action seemed 10 sustain the
claim that recess constructive or actual-had
occurred at noon December z 1t certainly
sHsapproyed the contention that there had been
. single continuous session" We are told that
The Senate committee Wilt take a different
rlew-diderent at least TO the extent of hold
ing that whatever break there was between the
two sessions WAS not of a character TO 1ustify
the denomination of recess appointees. Ii does
not seem probable that the committee will re-
turn 10 the merger contention Of Messrs. Lat
fIe1ield and Parker. For on the evidence Of its
own records IL is now ending lis third not its
second, session as constituent portion of tbe
5sih Congress.
Ii it does accept the merger" theory will il

hotel was not result of the law but of the fa-
ure Of the local authorities to enforce it, The
statute snecfcally defined the character of

Rut the police and Buildings Department made
practically no effort to enforce the law and the
State Excise Department was unable TO do thls
work Reasonable activity by the city officials

of the law. The city officials have been indiffer-

responsibility and let il be the cover for lawless
ness with which they had the power and the
duty to deal.
In compeIling the local authorities to enforce
the building laws for hotels, and also the ordi-

their operation, great care was necessary 10

by the Excise Department. AS II would be per-
fectly possible by occasional unannOunced in

hardly dare TO falsify them. Thus some reason
