The Senate was not in session Satur-
DAY by adopting sweeping cloture
rule in the House the Republicans left
to the Democrats only very limited pow
ers. No longer can filibuster be con-
Quoted against sending to conference bills
with Senate amendments; no longer can
a motion to close debate be amended CT
discussed, and no longer can motion to
ADJOURN take precedence over motion to
take recess. After the adoption of
this rule the House resumed its wonted
aspect and business proceeded in an or
derry manner. One of the few privileges
LETT to the Democrats was to force a roll
call on adjournment. and this they did,
but to no avail as the motion carried

The army bill, carrying an appropria-
ton of almost S100000,O0o. was passed
by the Senate Monday, practically as re-
ported from the Committee on Military
Affairs. The bill materially increases
the pay of officers and enlisted men. A
resolution introduced by Mr.. Foraker
was adopted calling on the Secretary of
War for the names of all former sol
diers of the Twenty-ffth Infantry, dis
charged without honor on account of the
Brownsville ARRAY who have applied for
re-enlistment. Beyond forcing roll calls
on the approval of the journal and on
adjournment the Democrats of the House
offered no obstruction TO the orderly
transaction of business. Being suspen-
sion day, several important bills We're
put through by practically unanimous
vote Among these was the Sterling en-
ployers' liability bill, only one vote be-
ing recorded against it, that of Mr.. Little
field of Maine,
