coerce members of congress and final
~ Senator Crawford at 1905 p. m.
took the floor to speak in opposition to
Senator Lorimer
He held the floor until sos o'clock
this morning, exactly eight hours. He
appeared good for another eight hours,
but to conserve his strength for an
other attack if necessary he surren-
dered the floor to Senator BristoW,
who demonstrated during the tariff
fight that he was capable of speaking
at length.
One advantage was gained in the
early night by the Lorimer forces. IN
surgent Republicans had left the cham
Der for a conference and only the Dem
ocrat opponents of Senator Lorimer
were on guard. In a momentary lull
Mr.. Bailey without ostentat ton address,
cd the chair and moved that when a
vote was taken it be by yeas and noes.
Senator Brandegee was in the chair
and he lost no time in submitting the
motion and it was adopted before there

adopted and the effect was to remove

parliamentary procedure that would

Bailey Caught Them Mapping.
This advance was accomplished in
the senate by friends of Senator Lori

floor.
The maneuver of Senator Bailey may
prove an important factor in the case

the case prior to the expiration of the
congress at noon Saturday. The pro-

Aldrich. He used it first when Sena-

currency law.
The sharp parliamentary practice of
last night was not strange to Senator
Stone and did not tend to smooth over
his opposition to vote on the Lorimei.
case. He appeared chagrined and
angry at having been caught twice, on
the same game.
At o'clock this morning there was
excellent prospects of an agreement to
vote not only on the Lorimer case but
the tariff board bill. All the opposing
forces appeared to be ready to come to
an agreement Senator Crawford still
held the fort and he was told that re-
