Washington, FEB. 13.--Not in recent
years has the house itnessed such a
spectacle as it did with Messrs
Sullivan of Massachusetts and Hearst
OF New York as the central figures
Both INDUCED in personalities of the
grayest character and so stirred the
house as to arouse among certain
members Il feeling of the greatest IN
dignatiOn. Mr. Sullivan heaped upon
Mr.. Hearst a TRADE of denuneiation
while the latter by implication
charged Mr. Sullivan with completes
in a murder. The affair grew out OF
the recent discussion OF the freight
rate question in the house, when Mr.
Sullivan inquired of Mr. Lamar of
Florida, vino was favoring the Hearst
bIli, why Mr.. Hearst did not defend
his own hll, this being followed by "a
criticism Of Mr.. Sullivan in the New
York American and Journal
Mr.. Sullivan had prepared his
speech IN advance and read il
throughout After he had explained
the purpose Of his remarks he read
az 81 NAelC III tle Ne" 1 OIk Amer =
can, at which he had taken offense.
This, he said, touched him in his rep
resentatiye capacity and was a de-
liberete insult from one member Oh
the house to another. Mr.. Hearst
arose to reply at once when Mr.. Sui
liyan took his seat. He had to wait
some minutes for order. His reply
was brief the sensational part beins
contained in the concluding sentences.
which by inference charged Mr.. SUI
liyan with murder.
