to Kooominit the 15111.
Washington, Jan. 11. The bill pro
ding for the refunding of the debt of
le Pacific railways vrae defeated in the
wer house of congress today, by a vote
102 to 1GG.
Powers, the author of the bill, moved
i have the bill committed to the
Jmmittee for revision, buc a point of
rder was made that the motion was out
Torder. It was then decided to allow
le question as to whether or not Jov
Ee' motion should be granted, go oyer
II tomorrow to allow the speaker time
fc examine precedents.
Washington, Jan. 11. Great interest j
is manifested in the outcome of the
ttle royal over the Pacific funding bill
lich came to a vote in the house today.
fcfore the house convened the floor was
jwded with members standing about
juing the merits of the bill. The gal-
ries also were filled. It required some
le to straighten out the parliamen-
ry situation.
Speaker Eeed stated that there were
pending amendments to the bill.
Here were, nowever, two suostuuies,
lit of Harrison of Alabama, to provide
a commission of three cabinet, of
era to negotiate a settlement of the
Bbt with the two roads, and the Bell
institute, providing that if the roads
Duld clear off the first mortgage so as
i advance the government's lien to the
jsitiou of a first mortgage the govern-
ant would agree to an extension of the
Briod for payment of debt at 3 per cent
(tereat.
To the former substitute there was a
lending amendment, proposed by-North-ray
of Ohio, providing that the coimnis
Ion created should be appointed by the
cretary of the treasury, the secretary
V the interior and the attorney-general,
hatead of consisting of these three cabi
net officers. The Northway amendment
H said, was to be voted on first, then
be substitutes in their order.
p After some wrangling the speaker's
iatement of the situation was accepted
by the house. The Northway amend'
pent to the Harrison substitute was de
mated on viva voce vote, after which the
tell Fubstitutu was Fubmitted. Bull de
manded a record-making vote. The de
nand wai sustained by 70 of the mem.
jers, mostly Democrats, and the roll
vaa called. Ah the voting proceeded it
was evident the substitute would fail
ind friends of the, bill were .correspond
ugly jubilant.
Senator White, of California, Senator
Daniels and other senators watched the
struzele with deen interest. When the
speaker announced the defeat of the Bell
substitute by a vote of 110 to 156, the op
position appeared somewhat staggered,
but it was pointed out that California
members and others known to be op
posed to the measure voted against the
substitute.
The Harrison substitute was thensrtb
mitted. On a viva voce vote the volume
of sound was acainst the substitute and
I the speaker was about to declare it de
feated when HarriEon demanded ayes
and noes.
There were cries of "No." "No," but
Harrison succeeded in securing 47 mem
bars to back his demand. This was not
a fifth of the preceding vote, but the
other Bide' was unable to muster more
than 129. so the speaker ordered the roll
called. The substitute was overwhem
ingly defeated 55 to 214.
The on position then decided to test
their strength by securing a roll-call on
the usual formal motion to engross and
read the bill. Accordingly Maguire of
of California demanded the ayes and
noes, and halt the house seemed to re
Bpond to his demand. As the roll-cal
began every one realized that the criti
cal momemt had come. The buzz of ex
cited conversation subsided aud a hush
fell on the house. Powers, and his clerk
kept tallies. Cummings of New York,
Macuire of California and Beverai other
members also checked the vote.
When it was quietly whispered about
at the end of the first roll-call on motion
to engross, that the vote was 87 to 147
the adversaries of the measure were
over-joyed. Maguire started a round of
annlause and abandoned bis tally. The
completeness of the defeat of the bil"
advocates became more apparent as the
second roll-call proceeded. When the
clerks had figured up the total, the
sneaker submitted the result, ayes 102
noes 108. There was a great burst of ap
DlauBe when the defeat of the measure
waB officially announced.
A formal motion of Hubbard of Mis
souri to reconsider and lay on the table
was carried and some minor bueinesa
traneactad. Then suddenly Powers
seem to make up his mind to try aud
get further consideration for the bill in
a new form. He arose and moved that
the bill be committed to the committee,
"It is apparent," said he, speaking

very calmly, "that the house has mani
fested its opposition to the principle of
this bill, but," he continued, "I take it
that every member present wants ac
tion taken, and I make this motion in
order to see if the committee cannot
formulate a measnro which will meet
the approval of 'the bouse."
Dockery of -Missouri immediately
made a point of order that the motion
was not in order. A parliamentary row
followed.
Caucus Will Consider It.
Washington, Jan. 11. The republican
enators will hold a caucus at 11 o'clock
tomorrow to pass upon the bill proposed
bv Senator Wok-ot to the caucus com
mittee providing for an international
silver conference.

Salem, Jan. 11. The 19th biennial
session ot tno uregon state legislature
convened todav. There was no contest
for presiding officer in the senate, and
temporary organization was soon ef
fected. In the Republican caucus just

imous vote lor presiuent. I'ermanenr,
organization of the senate will be made
this afternoon.
The house accomplished nothing be
yond the election of a temporary speaker
and clerk. The contest for speaker ot
the house is growing very warm, and
threatens to involve the United States
senatorship. The fight is now between
Bourne, of Multnomah, and Beneon, of
Josephine. It now seems improbable
that the house will be organized today
The Benson men are working hard to
get a caucus, but so far have been un
able to get the necessary members.
Riddle's friends are cnargins that
Senator Mitchell is working in the in
terest of Benson, and threaten to re
taliate. There is not much chango in
the senatorial contest. The Mitchell
men say they have forty-seven signa

necessary. The anti-Mitchell men char
