Washington, Jan. II. - During the
debate in the house Gaines Of Ten
ncssee and MahOn of Pennsylvania
were only prevented from meeting in
personal encounter by the intervention
of members. Gaines was making a
speech OH his bill to dock" members
pay for absence from the house, and
was being twitted by both sides of
the chamber, to his evident embarrass-
mcnt Then he charged Mahon with
being absent from the house 05 per
cent. of the time. Previous to this
swepeing assertion Gaines had read
excerpts from the record in relation to
the withholding of pay in the Fifty
third congress and the part Mahon had
played at that time. Mahon remained
silent throughout Gaines speech with
the exception of interfering a remark
or two at the beginning.
Cant Call Me Liar"
When Gaines had concluded Mahon
rose. He explained how in the Fifty
third and Fifty fifth congresses he had
$1,000 due him and that the then
speaker, Crisp, had given him an order
on the sergeant-at-armsf for the amount,
which was paid. Then coming to the
crux Of Gaines charge Mahon thun-
dered: ANY man who charges me
with being away from this house e5
per cent. of the time tells an untruth."
Gaines started down the aisle from
his seat. mo man can tell me / lie,"
exclaimed Gaines. Then Mann Of ILL.,
nois, who was in the chair, took a
hand in the alteration.
Mahon Returns to tho Charge.
Both men were ordered to their
seats, Mahon obeying the command,
while Gaines stood two seats away
from the center of the chamber shak-
ing both fist and head at the Pennsyl-
vanian. When order had been restored
Mahon again rose. Having been eau
toned by the chair that it was against
the rules to address q member in the
second person he measured his words,
saying he would speak In the fourth
person" He then said: 1.-THE charge
of the gentleman from Tennessee that
am away from this house o5 per
cent. of my time is a deliberate false
hood.
Gaines Charges His Accuser. -
With a rush Gaines reached the
center Of the chamber, making direct
" toward the gentleman from Penn
sylvania, insisting as he went that no
man could call him a liar without per-
sonal chastisement. The house was in
an uproar by this time, the chair add
ing TO the noise-if not to the confu-
sion-by pounding the desk with his
gavel His efforts finally caused the
head Of the gavel to fly of, and 1t
bounded into the body of the house al
most striking one Of the members.
