port was?

report was a favorable report, ought
to pass in new draft under the same
title
MIR. ALLEN of York: Mr.. Presi-
dent, l do not understand that |
made the motion to indefinitely post
pone in concurrence with the House.
L may have done it but l do not re-
member it. This bill was brought
before the committee on education;
as | remember it, it was stated that
an hour should be given: we heard
the bill before the committee and re-
drafted the bill and made it forty
five minutes; with the unanimous re-
port. ought to pass" it went oyer to
the House and was indefinitely post
poned. Why, | do not know. I am
in favor of the bill going through.
The PRESIDENT: The Chair will
state that the records of the Senate
by which in the absence of error ap-
pearing we should be bound, states
that the motion to indefinitely post
pope was tabled by Mr.. Harrington.
Having been postponed indefinitely in
the House it follows that such action
on the part of the Senate would be in
concurrence with the action of the
House; SO the Chair will state that
the motion pending is to postpone the
bill Indefinitely in concurrence with
the action of the House.
Mr.. THOMBS: Mr. President, I
was going to propose that we nom
concur.
Mr.. ALLENj l second the motion.
The PRESIDENT Obviously they
would be mutually exclusive. Is the
Senate ready for the question?
The motion is that the bill be in
definitely postponed in concurrence
with the House. An affirmative vote
will have the effect of killing the
bill; a negative vote will still leave
the matter open for further action.
A viva voce vote being had, the
motion was lost.
