HARDY WORRIES BURGESS.
SPEECH ATTACKING BAILEY
REFERRED TO COMMITTEE.
No Right in Congressional Record in
Opinion of Colleague Of Man
Who Made It.

Determined that the fractional row in
the democratic party In Texas should not
be transferred to Congress, Representa-
tive Burgess of that state today took
steps to have expunged from the Con-
gressional Record a speech delivered by
his colleague, Mr.. Hardy. at Cameron,
Texas, October 1s last, in which Mr..
Hardy criticised Senator Bailey In re-
spect to his attitude on tariff legislation.
II allowed to remain in the Record,
Mr.. Burgess said, this speech would pro-
woke reply by Senator Bailey in the
Senate. He claimed that the insertion
of such speech by Mr.. Hardy was in
open violation Of the rule that a men,
Der of one house Of Congress should not
refer to a member Of the other house.
Thereupon, he offered resolution to
refer Mr.. Hardy's remarks to the COM
mittee on the judiciary, with Instructions
to report within ten days. This reso-
luton was adopted.
Senator Cores statement that Andrew
Carnegie, through the kind offices of Mr..
German, was permitted to prepare the
iron and steel schedule of the Wilson
bill. This he said, Senator Bailey denied
with the confederation Of Senator Aldrich.
The fact, however, he suggested. was
confirmed by Mr.. Carnegie in a magazine
article.
Mr.. Hardy criticised Senator Bailey in
his attitude In opposition to free raw
materials, and in questioning the right of
the Denver convention to point out the
duty of democrats In respect to the policy
OF the party upon the tariff.
