Washington, Feb. 21.-The great ma
tority of the Democrats in the house
voted with the Republicans, 173 to 43,
for the adoption of rule providing
that all house rules can be, suspended
on a two-thirds vote during the re-
mainder of the, session, so that appro
priation and other measures can be
rushed through without amendment
after forty minutes debate.
The adoption of the rule, which was
characterized by Mr.. Bennett of New
York as a gag" had the effect of
ending the three days filibuster
against the omnibus war claims bill,
which provides for the payment of
S1,160,0O0 of war claims, but does not
include any French spoliation or navy
yard overtime claims.
The claims bill was passed by two

not demanded.
The rule adopted by the house prac

hands of the speaker.
Quorum Is Present.
AS soon as the house convened the
point of no quorum was made and
roll call ordered. The clerk reported
2O1 members present, a quorum. The
reading of the omnibus bill for amend

Representative Roberts of Massa-
chusetts, one of the new filibusterers,
offered as an amendment the entire
list of French claims and demanded
the reading Of the seventy printed
pages. Mr. Mann made a point of or

name.
While this point was pending Rep
resentative Dalzell of Pennsylvania
brought in from the committee on
rules a rule providing for the suspen-

until the end of the session.
Whatever suspension is invoked it
limits all discussion to forty minutes
on each measure. Mr.. Dalzell said the
state of the public business required
the adoption of the rule.
