Of plumb line is not vertical. Irregu-

third day he gave notice that his
speech was not yet finished
So. upon the fourth day, Senator
Quay rose to continue his speech. He
had the right to the floor; no one could
take It away from him. And upon this
occasion he sent TO the clerks desk a
large volume asking that the clerk
read certain marked passages therein.
The clerk droned away for more than
an hour and had not finished the read
ing of the extracts when the hour for
Adjournment came. Therefore Senator
Quay's unfinished speech went over to
the next day. when IL was observed
that Quay had upon his desk a large
number Of Senate documents and
many volumes. A curious colleague
asked him how long he expected to
speak
Until doomsday. or until this Con-
gress adjourns, or until the Senate
votes down the sugar schedule was
the reply. II have tariff documents
here by the yard; I have volumes
bearing upon tariff questions that
would fll a library. / purpose enter
tanning the Senate with these volumes
and extracts from these documents, for
these are to be considered a part of
my speech
II was soon realized that Senator
Quay had the Senate at his mercy
under the rule Of the Senate which
provided that, whenever a Senator an
nounced that upon a certain day and
in the hours set apart for addressing
the Senate he should speak, he had
the right to occupy the full time set
apart each day for discussion until his
speech was finished Quay was pre-
pared to talk the tariff bill 70 death.
His speech had become a perfect mo-
sale of his own remarks and inter-
polated paragraphs and extracts from
numerous tariff documents and vol
umes OF literature and was without
precedent IN the history Of the Senate.
At last a Senator said 70 him:
Aren't you firing yourself out Quay?"
"The Senate is more likely to be
tired Of me than ! am of myself" was
the reply.
And in that statement Senator Quay
was correct The Senate tired Of him,
acknowledged that he had the body by
the throat, so to speak and was only
too glad 10 concede all that Quay mad
been fighting for for more than two
weeks. His peculiar style of oratory
had won a victory seldom gained by
oratory In the United States Senate.
