THE WORK OF. CONGRESS
What s Being Done Day by Day By
the National House and Senate.
Saved the Bill.

AT Saturdays session, what might
have been a serious parliamentary
snarl was dexterously avoided by
Speaker Cannon late Saturday after
noon in the House of Representatives
when Mr.. Murphy, Of Missouri, rose
TO present what he delominated a
priviledged resolution,
The conference reports on the rate
and statehood bills had been made
and ordered printed when the Mis-
souri, congressman presented reso-
luton resembling the action Of the
House sending the statehood bill IL
conference and providing for vote
on the Senate amendments,
MI. Payne, Of New York, the floor
leader Of the majority, Instantly made
the point that the resolution was not
privileged. The Speaker with smil-
ing face, held that the resolution was
not priviledged, as the papers in the
case were with the Senate and he had
serious doubt if the resolution would
be privileged even if the papers were
with the House. Confusion cnsued,
Mr.. Murphy and number OF Demo
springing to their feet to take
exception to the ruling Of the Speak
er.
Above the din Mr.. Murphy was
heard to say: "Let,s have a square
deal Mr. Speaker. I appeal from the
decision Of the chair" but the Speak
er was oblivious to the motion for an
appeal aud adjourned the House at
$50 until noon OH Thursday on mo-
ton Of MIR. Bonyngc, Of Colorado,
leaving Mr.. Murphy's gesticulating
on the floor.
Tie House spent the day consider
ing the naturalizine bill but did not
complete it. The "nub' Of The ma
turalization bill, the educational test,
was debated during much of the ses-
sion, TO be finally amended by Mr..
Kennedy, of Nebraska, whose, amend
ment reads as follows: "TLat no alien
shall hereafter be naturalized or ad-
mitted as citizen OF the United
States who cannot speak The English
language" The test as laid down in
the bill makes it obligatory that the
intending citizen must write his own
language and read, speak and under
stand the English language"
Senate Passes Postofics A.ppropriar
tion Bill.
The senate passed the postoffice ap-
preparation bill carrying an appropri-
alton of $192.4S5,O0O and immedi-
ately afterwald adjourned over Mem
orial day until Thursday. Tie entire
day was devoted to the consideration
of the bill as a whole and to spe-
cial features Of the bill. The debate
dealt with the questions Of the fast
mail train to the South, second class
matter, including the admission to the
mails of the publications Of colleges,
universities and charitable and edu-
cational institutions as second class
matter, subsidies for Pacific mail
steamships, and questions relating to
the boxes used on rural free delivery
routes.

night, were still In savage mood
when the house convened and they had
personal reasons to assigr Why iney
were absent on roll call.
Throughout the whole of the ses-
sion which was precipitated by the
motion to approve the journal, the
speaker Of the house sat almost i'm
movable, now and then indulying in
a quiet chuckle over tile discomfort
of his friends.
When his right to direct tie issu.
ance of the writ of arrest was at.
tackled, the speaker following all ex-
position of the rules, terminated fur
ther argument by asserting that "tbe
gentleman had been legally arrested" :"
The rules of The house, as to the
presence of members, were brought
home to the members and during the
Fest Of the day, while the house had
under consideration the diplomatic
and consular bill, quorum was con-
tinuously present.
After completing most Of the bill

The Immunity Bill.
The Senate passed the Knox i'm.
mupity bill and the omnibus light
house bill, with practically no de-
bate, passed the military academy

passing the employers liability bill by

which have prevented confirmation

by Senator Foraker, Dillingham;,
Bailey, Culberson and others. 70
