BILL REJECTED.

Measure For Benefit Of Knox Does Not
Secure Two-Thirds Vote.
Washington. Feb. 16.--The house of
representatives rejected the senate
bill removing the constitutional bar to
Senator knox's serving as secretary
of state
Mr.. Clayton of Alabama, Democrat
in favoring the bill said it offended
against no provision of the constitu.
ton and its enactment int, law would
not be violation of the org anic law of
the land. The bill. he said, sought to
simply reduce the annual compensa-
ton of the secretary of state, and that
congress clearly had the power 10
make such reduction.
For that reason" he said II favor
the bill in order that Senator Knox
may assume the duties OF his office
Mr.. Clark of Missouri opposed the
bill. which he said was simply an eff
fort to override the constitution by
statute. We are asked to stultify our.
selves" he exclaimed, land that is
exactly what 1t amounts to. for fear
that we not be persona grata at the
White House."
Bill was rejected by a vote of 179
to 1913, the necessary two-thirds re-
quired to suspend the rules not being
forthcoming. Immediately after this
result the committee on rules held a
session with a view to bringing in a
rule whereby the bill may be passed
by q ma jOrity vote.
