Washington, Aug. 27.-The house

by Majority Leader Underwood, order

day they are away except for sickness.
The vote on the resolution was 21S

and the danger that the United States
may be drawn into it Is daily becom-
Ing more serious. is understood to be
back Of the insistence Of the leaders
that full attendance be maintained.
Mr.. Underwood said that before con-
gress adjourns 1t would be necessary
to pass bill to provide additional rev.
enue to meet the loss caused by the
falling OF in imports.
1--WE will probably lose 500. 100000
Of revenue because the customs reve-
nues are cut OF from Europe" he said.
THE country Is at stake. For any
member of congress to say now that
he places his individual fortune and
the necessity to take care of his indi-
vidual fortune above his duty to the
country, in my judgment proclaims
that member unpatriotic and unworthy
of seat on the floor Of this house"
The resolution was as follows:
Resolved, That leaves Of absence
heretofore granted to members are
hereby revoked.
Resolved, further. That the SER
geant-at-arms is hereby directed to no
tify all absent members by wire that
their presence in the house Is required
and that they must return without de-
lay to Washington.
Resolved. further, That the SER

the law requiring him to deduct from
the salary of the members their daily
compensation when they are absent
for other cause than sickness of them
selves or their families"
