Sneakers Effort to Draw Teeth OF
Anti-boss Rule Brings About
Another Coalition.

WASHINGTON, Jan. 16.-The stirring
scenes of the last session of congress
when the house overthrow Speaker
Cannon and took the making of rules
in it's own hands, was reenacted in
part on the floor of the house today.
Threatened With what they believed
an effort to "draw the teeth OF one of
the most important of the new rules,
Democrats and insurgents Joined in
the defeat of the speaker. By a vote
of 145 to 1875, the combined forces ral-
lied to the support of Representative
FITZGERALD (Dem.) Of New York and
sustained him in appeal from the
speakers ruling.
The fight developed as the result OF
the second attempt to use the new rule
which gives the house the power to
discharge a committee from further
consideration of bill that has been
referred to it The insurgents ana the
Democrats believed that this rule was
iron-clad: that as soon as the consld-
Grafton of bills by unanimous consent
had been concluded, on every first and
third Monday of the month, the mousse
was bound by the new rule to take up
the motions to discharge committees
from the custody of specified bills.

point held that the new rule did not
make it mandatory upon the house to
take up the motions to discharge COM
