| previous question, thus shutting off
debate on the motion to table the re-
solution, was carried. This denotes
the strength of the allies. The roll
cal was then begun to decide whether
the decision of the chair would be ac-
copied or rejected.
AT 4:4S o'clock. yesterday afternoon
the house of representatives adjourned
until noon today, after one of the
greatest parliamentary struggles in it's
history. The result is nothing more
nor less than a drawn battle.
When the final roll call came, 1914
republicans voted to postpone further
action on the Norris amendment until
tomorrow and $50 democrats and in
surgent republicans voted to continue
With the regular republicans voted
fourteen Of the insurgent following
of Norris of Nebraska, who left him
and sided with the majority for the
postponement. The result, they say
conveyed no significance and did not
mean that they had deserted the in
surgent cause.
The lull in the long battle apparently
was welcomed by both sides, although
there was not a cheer of victory from
either. When the speaker put the mo-
ton to adjourn, general chorus of
ayes came from the republican side.
The democrats made no protest and
there was no answer to the call for
the noes.
Every One is Present.
The house for the first time in the
present session. had almost it's full
membership on the floor When the
gavel fell, the members rose YEARLY
from their seats and filed out through
the Uttered aisles. In five minutes the
scene of the record breaking en-
durance struggle was cleared of its
400 principals, the galleries were en-
piled Of the hundreds of spectators
who occupied them constantly for near
ly 80 hours. and only a score of jan
itors moved about, cleaning up the ev-
licences of the fray.
No such series of scenes have been
witnessed in congress in recent years.
The performance embraced every ele-
ment from the serio tragic effort to
wrest from the speaker, the chief
source of power, to the songs, jokes
and jests that the members banded
during the long hours of vigil
Always there was the bone of con-
tention between the two opposing
sides, over which they fought and
wrangled fiercely, but for hours at a
tEn
of comic opera and laughter and
applause ruled the house.

The particular obstruction in the

D|sCOVERER Of
LEPR0SY BACILLUS
Philippine Investigator to Pay
Honolulu a Short Visit
Very Soon.

Moses T. Clegg, who first discovered
the bacillus of leprosy in the Philip
pines and gave his discovery to the
world of science, is a through passenger
on the Pacific Mail steamship Manchu-
ria and will arrive here on Monday, en-
route to Manila.
The discovery Of the leprosy bacillus
surprised the medical world, primarily
because the discoverer is not doctor
and has not a single scientific abbrevi-
ated title trailing at the end of his
name. He is simply, or was then, an
employee of one of the departments of
the Philippines government, and while
pursuing Investigations in the field Of
leprosy segregated the bacillus.
The discovery has opened up an en-
tirely new field of investigation in re-
gard to Ieprosy, and scientists and
physicians may now find method by
which the disease may be treated. 1t
has opened the way for a method by
which leprosy may be handled, much
as tuberculosis is being handled.
Mr.. Clegg does not plan to stay over
in Honolulu, although if he did an op-
portunitv would undoubtedly be given

WASHINGTON, July H From
Europe and Asia, during the fiscal year
anding June 80 last, more than a mil
lion immigrants poured into the United
States, the total number being the third
largest that has ever been recorded IN
the history of the country. Had the
,rmher of refusals to be allowed to
land not been very many more than has
ever been the case before, last year
would have seen the number Of immi-
grants to this country practically tied
with the number that arrived in 1906.
Altogether, according to the figures
given out last night by the immigra-
ton bureau, 1,O41 $40 newcomers en-
tered the country, while $4,000 were re-
fused admission.
The greatest number of immigrants
to arrive in one year came in 1907,
when l,2S5,349 entered the country, the
