One of Biggest Days in History
of the Session
CONTENDS FOR A QUORUM
Forty.five Bills, Covering Wide Range
of Subjects, Are Passed In the
House-"Suspension
Day."
CONTENDS FOR A QUORUM

Washington, May Notwithstanding
that this was the speakers birthday the
House after splendid demonstration to
Mr. Cannon as he assembled to the speak
er's table. settled down to one of the
biggest days in the history of the pres
ent session.
The minority leader, Mr. Williams of
Mississippi. developed a mild filibuster
early in the session, having in mind the
action of the conferees on the statehood
bill to remove, and for the additional
purpose of advising the House that 1t
could not enact legislation without the
presence of a quorum. Beyond a roll call
and now and then the suggestion of the
absence of quorum on the part of the
democrats, the day was notable for the
number or bills passed 45 in number, COW
ering a wide range of subjects.
Many OF the bills passed could have
been passed by the unanimous consent,
but with Mr. Williams determination to
object to any legislation by unanimous
consent, these bills came up under sus-
pension of the rules, this being known as
suspension day."
Hardly had the reading of the journal
been concluded when the leader of the
minority began hlibuster with the state
hood bill as the objective to be reached.
Mr.. Williams of Mississippi asked for
the yeas and nays on the approval of
the journal. Not a sufficient number
arising, the speaker declared the journal
approved on regular motion.
Mr.. Sherman of New York, chairman
of the Indian affairs committee, moved
that the rules be suspended, that the
Indian appropriation bill be taken from
the speakers table and sent to confer
