HUME VOTED AGAINST BILL tl.,-..,i it D,..ix.i . d...h. i.. vi. Ulloi of Regulation - Bill Mill of CoitraJlclloai latf Iscob tlitcaclei. tpccial to The Aatorlan.) HALKM, Feb. 19. -The bright h pes of the Astorlana who arc here In the Interest of promoting satisfactory reme dial salmon legislation affecting the Columbia river suffered a total eclipse this morning. They had gone to bed l.tst night with mental congratulations over the decisive vote by which the houw had repeatedly resisted the as saults nude to dls'odge Harm's amend ment from the Hume bill. They en tered the house this morning with unil ing faces to witness the resumption of consideration of the bill In committee of the whole. JJut while the. Ast.rla people slept the night preceding, a remarkable transformation had taken place. The!,, , , , , . . ' KtSolulion of Inquiry Passed to Ascer- I'Hiiiii.aic-r iidll iiiu rnuiiil coiiHiu- eratlon of the bill, but with a dlffer- ent conclusion from that anticipated by the Astoria folk. An adjournment had liken place the night before after sec tion twelve (there are fifty-three -c-tlons of the bill) had been amended. Section thirteen was passed with triv ial amendments, when, suddenly. In the twinkling of an eye, a motion waa made that the committee rise, the speaker re sumed the chair, the chairman of the committee reported progress, a motion was made to suspend the rule and. to the utter amazement of the Astoria contingent., the bill was rad the third time ard plaoed on Its final passage. By the time the Astortans recovered their senses th" roll call was complete and tin bill declared passed, w-lthout a single change from the way It cami? frcm the original committee. Objection -as made that the clerk had not n-ad the amendments. To this the speaker blandly replied that no amendments had teen reported. Thus, by a skill ful parliamentary play, coupled with the change of sentiment which had so mystet iously come over some of th?lr supporters of the day before, the Astoria friends of the bill lost all the advant age they had gained and went down to complete defeat. Nor was the loss of the Harm amend ments the only disaster Astoria and the fishing industry generally had sus tained. It seems that, although the bill had been in course of preparation for nearly three weeks, It was finally turn ed Into the house so full of contrarl tles and inconsistencies that no one can tell what many of its most Import ant provisions mean. Worse than all, while the bill is passed will be eff ec tual to repeal nearly all of the good salmon legislation of farmer years, for which It Is a substitute, it omits to provide any penalty for the violation of the regulations pertaining to the collection of '.icenses, the opening and closing -leasons, th- gear to be used, etc. The authrr of the bill. Hon. R. D. Hume, stood ready to propose an amendment incorporating this wry es sential provision, but was cut out by the surprisingly sudden and summary action of "he housf, and such was his clngnn and disappointment over the failure of his laborious efforts that he went to his seat and voted against the bill passed, exactly as It came from his own hands, through the committee of w hich he was a member. Th bill .is passed was sent to the ! .senate during the day. There will be j no opportunity under the rules for Its ainendmen; and return from that end of the capitol after tomorrow. So that even if it Is defeated In the senate It will not likely be returned to the house In time for pass-age, and If it is adopt ed by the senate as it went from the house the fishing industry will be worae oft in m.iny respects than if no new legislation had been undertaken. There was no change in the senator l il ballot today. Both houses have agreed to adjourn on Saturday, at midnight. IN NATIONAL SENATE. Conference Report on Military Acad emy Appropriation Bill Rejected. WASHINGTON, Feb. 19. By the em phatic vote of 18 to 42, the senate this afternoon rejected the conference re port on the military academy appro priation bill.
