COMPROMISE IN FIGHT
ON COMMITTEE QUORUM
New Ruling That majority
of Majority Must Approve
Bill Before Report.

The fight which has been on in the
Senate for several days to allow less
than a majority of a committee to con-
stitute quorum for the transaction of
business has been compromised.
Back of the resolution to authorize a
change in the century-old rule of the
in committee were several SEN
ators who wanted drastic antitrust lesis-
lation to be reported out of the Senate
committee on interstate commerce. and
who complained that they could not get a
majority of the committee present for
the transaction of business.
Senator Clarke of Arkansas introduced
a resolution to authorize each committee
to fix the number necessary for a quo
rum but providing that no number less
than a third of the total membership be
fixed.
Objection of Senator Curtis.
Senator Curtis objected. on the ground
it was countenancing absenteeism. an
already growing evil. Senator McCum-
Der made the point that three on a COM
mittee Of fifteen could order a committee
report on a bill. under the new rule.
Numerous conferences were held since
the proposition first was advanced. and
1t was agreed that less than quorum
would be allowed to transact business in
committee, but that bill could not be
reported out without the approval of a
INA jority of the majority This will
mean that the rule of the majority will
still prevail in action on bills, but that
physical presence of a majority will not
be required.
For illustration. 1T is pointed out that
on committee with fifteen members
five members can, under old rules,
order favorable report on a bill. five
being a majority Of the majority quorum
of eight. Under the compromise, five
votes for bill will still be necessary to
order favorable report to the Senate.
Under former rules. however, 1t was re-
quired that eight members must attend
or the bill could not be acted upon; under
the compromise, five members only need
attend. OF course, in the later case, all
five Of those who attend must vote in
favor of the bill
The compromise was adopted by the
Senate. on the motion of Senator Curtis
yesterday afternoon.

OMAHA, April 13.-Gov. Harmon of
Ohio delivered an address here last night
In reply to criticisms of his public record
and the assertion that he is reaction
ary." He resented as a SANDER the init
nation that he stood for or permitted
special privileges-"an offense little short
of treason in the eyes of the democrats
and declared the charge that he took part
in the sale of government bonds while
cabinet officer was mere wantonness.
After his speech Gov. Harmon left for
Chicago to confer with his campaign
managers. Although Gov. Harmon's name
did not appear on the Illinois preferential
presidency ballot at the primaries. his
friends assert that they will make hard
fight for delegates.
Gov. Harmon's visit to Omaha followed
| an announcement that William ]. Bryan
would speak in Ohio in opposition to Gov.
Harmon. Mr.. Harmon did not mention
the name Of the Nebraskan, but said:
THE good people Of Ohio will bear me
out when / say. as I do. that not in a
| generation have their affairs been so
honestly. fairly, economically and capa-
bly, managed as they nave been by the
present democratic administration 1t has
been because Jeffersonian principles were
practiced and not merely prated about.
In beginning, Gov Harmon said:
Il am here at the invitation of my good
| friends in Nebraska and. while l am al
ways averse to speaking about myself, 1
feel that 1t is due to them to speak of
some matters of public nature about
| which falsehoods have been circulated so
| wholly unfounded that persistence in
them cannot be ascribed to proper mo-
| tives. 1t would not be necessary to do
this at home.
