tended at midnight that they had o

II absentees they will be able to de-
feat the resolution and that they will
not put the resolution to vote until
they are certain of their ground.

Ames FIops to Insurgents.
At $3.50 o'clock Representative Taw
ney again moved that the house take
n recess until 1880 this morning
This time he based his appeal on one
of justice to the house employees. The
insurgents again insisted on a YET
and nay vote, and the Cannon lieuten
ats hustled around to wake up some
of their supporters. On the rollcal
this time Butler Ames of Massachu
sets, near-insurgent, who had beer
voting with the organization all day
went over to the side OF the allies
thereby causing CONSERVATION among
the regulars,
At $3.50 call of the house estab
lished the lack Of quorum, and th
speaker, acting upon the insistenc
of the insurgents, ordered the SCI
! geant-atarms to arrest the absentee

SITUATION IN BRIEF.

Washington, March 19.-Here
Is the kernel Of the crisis In the
house: When Cannon was last
reelected the only concession the
insurgents secured was the es-
tablishment of Calendar We'd
nesday." This provided one day
In the week when the rules COM
mittee could not absolutely die
tate what bills should be con-
sidered.
Cannon has been laying for
Calendar Wednesday ever since.
Last Wednesday he had chance
by ruling that an unimportant
resolution dealing with the CEN
sus was privileged over the rules
because the census was author
lied in the constitution. The in
Burgents had visions of every
calendar Wednesday In the fu-
ture being filed UP with Com
stltutlonal bills" and resolutions.
So they revolted and refused to
take UP the census matter, but
they did not appeal from Can
mons ruling that constitutional
privilege overrides rules and
speaker
SO tho resolution abollshing the
rules committee and dethroninB
Cannon was sprung. The point
was made that this was privi-
legged over existing rules because
It was constitutional matter.
the constitution providing that
the house shall make It's own
rules.
Thus the speakers ruling OF
Wednesday was turned squarely
against himself He refused to
rule on the point and the house
refused to adjourn until he did
rule. Hence the deadlock.

Washington. March 10. - Close
friends of Speaker Cannon acknowl-
edged that the combination Of insur-
gents and Democrats has a strangle-
hold on the situation In the house
Of representatives, and that unless
come compromise can be effected or
there In q break in the Democratic
ranks the speaker Is likely to go
down to defeat. This admission
was made with noticeable sadness by
the men who have stood shoulder to
shoulder with Speaker Cannon for
many years In dominating the affairs
Of the house. Mr.. Cannon friends be-
iieve further that he may resign from
che speakership If he is beaten in the
present fight.
SDeaker Cannon's supporters them
selves, after an all-nlght struggle on
the floor Of the house, made overtures
TO the insurgents In the hope of
reaching common ground on which
both can stand Three conferences
were held by representatives of the
two Republican factions in the course
OF the day, but when the house voted
a recess until this morning, the dead
lock was still on.
The Cannon forces have consented
20 an enlargement Of the committee
ON rules from FIVE to ten members.
ak to be selected from the majority
and four from the minority party.
They have further consented to have
these 10 committeeman nominated by
Q party caucus and elected by the
house instead of being appointed by
ahs speaker.
Where Factions Separate.
The Norris resolution, which has
brought the trouble In the house to a
head, provides for the election of 15
members to the rules committee by
the house The compromise PROPOSE.
SIon as submitted by the Cannon
eorces Is acceptable to the near-lnsur-
gents except In one additional fea-
ture. The near.insurgents, to say
nothlng of the real radicals, viii not
aisten TO any proposition which does
not include the elimination Of the
speaker from membership of the rules
committee This is the point on
which the two Republican factions In
the house are Immediately ut issue.
Speaker Cannon's friends have told
the near-insurgents that they will not
stand for any proposition that humil'
tates the speaker through such an
elimination provision. The insurgent
conferees have found II impossible
thus far to accept any compromise
that does not contain this feature
and members OF the insurgent band
were emphatic IN declaring that they
will not alter their attitude.
Frlends Advise Cannon.
Efforts are being made and prob
ably will be continued 10 get the
speaker himself to solve this embar
RAISING question. Several OF MIR. Can
uon's friends are urging him to sc
into party conference and volunteer
che assurance that he Will not serve
on new rules committee.
Another ground for compromise
that IL being suggested by the Can
non forces is that the speaker he nj
flowed to serve out his term on the
present rules committee until Marct
under a gentlemen's agreement tha
he will not serve after that date, II
she hope that some such understand
ing can be reached. a resolution was
drafted In the conferences which
while providing for the enlargement
OF the rules committee and Its seleo
ton by the house, contains nothing
derogatory to the speaker.

Hit By Moving Car,

A brakeman employed in the Rut-
land railroad yard at Burlington had
a narrow escape from death Thursday
morning by being run over by a
freight car. He was one OF the crew
of the freight train from which the
car was detached and was standing
on side track waiting his oppor-
tunity to jump on his train as it
passed on the main track. Meanwhile,
the detached car was sent down the
track upon which he was standing
at a good rate of speed, unbeknown
to him as his ears were covered with
a toque and he could not hear the
noise Some other railroad men saw
him and shouted warning, which he
did not understand, and he was struck
by the corner of the car and hurled
into a snow bank beside the track
instead of on it. He was slightly dazed
by the shock but no bones were brok-
en-.

Unlucky Small BOy.

A small boy, revolver cartridge,
hammer and a nail were mixed UP in
an accident Sunday morning which
will probably result in the loss of
one Of the small boys eyes. Pearl,
the five-year-old son of Mr.. and Mrs
E. G. Kilburn of West Rutland, was
playing with a 22-calibre cartridge
from which the bullet had been re-
moved, but it is supposed that the
charge of powder was still intact
The boy had run a nail into the cart
ridge and was pounding this with
hammer with the natural result that
an explosion followed. The flying
fragments inflicted bad wound in
the left eye and the lip and right hand
were also torn. This boy has had an
unusual run of hard luck during his
brief existence. A few weeks ago he
fell on a pointed stick, one end of
which was inserted in his mouth and
as a result he received a bad wound
in the throat. He had just recovered
from this injury when one OF his fin
gers was crushed to pulp by blow
from a hammer in the hands of an
older brother.
