KIDIOULES HIS ARGUMENTS Sherman Comes to the Front with a Strong Admonition to the Senate to Get to Business. Associated Press. Washington, Oct. 17.-At the open ing of the senate this morning Dolph asked that the Journal be corrected to show the presence of Allen and Kyle on sundry roll calls yesterday, they having been present In the senate, but having failed to vote. Dolph said that twenty-six republican senators not only favored the repeal of the Sherman act, but would vote to amend the rules so that the majority could limit tha debate. He regarded it as farcical for a senator to suggest the absence of a quorum and then, on the roll call, to refuse to vote. The senate was being brought into disrepute by such a course. . The discussion on the point of order wnetner Allen should be recorded as present when present and not voting, engrossed the attention of the senate today. Hill contended at great length that the presiding officer had power to Quote a quorum. Morgan, . democrat, of Alabama, said that he was not sur prised that the senator from New York (Hill) championed the rulings of the speaker of the house, because he was the unfortunate instrument, when he presided over the senate of New York. In the introduction of that heresy, not only into the democratic party and its traditions, but also into the constitu tional rights of legislative bodies. Mor gan went on to speak of "Alliance and coalition between certain democratic senators and certain republican sen ators," as belnca certain to disrunt the party, and he asked whether his dem ocratic colleagues were willing to strike the fatal blow. The coalition in the senate had been created for the defense of the national banks and for the purpose of destroying the silver money. Morgan proceeded to argue rgainst the position taken ty Hill, which brought that senator to his feet. "I first claim," said Hill, "that it Is within the power of the presiding offl cer to determine the presence of a quorum. My second proposition Is that there Is no rule of the senate which expressly, or even Impliedly, forbids that action." On the question of cloture Morgan defied the senators to establish that rule. "If I must die here," said Mor gan, In closing, "I will die like an hon erable man at my post." Hill said he had not expected to convince the senators who had no re spect for the supreme court and who were not willing to bow to its, decis ions. Hill then paid his respects to Morgan. "It's true," he sal.d "that there are politicians in New York." He supposed that there were no politi cians In Alabama; they were all states men from that country. (Laughter.) Morgan had spoken about his lifelong devotion to the constitution. "I sup posed," said Hill, "that for a brief per iod my friend supported another con stitution, but I may be mistaken." As to Morgan s talk about dying at his post. Hill said he had heard like state ments by men who tvere '.'going to die In the last ditch," but, said Hill, "there are many of them left." (Re newed laughter.) Referring to the re mark of Morgan complimentary to Al len G. Thurman, Hill said he supposed Morgan In making the tribute, hnd In view all the record made by Thurman In the senate. He then read from the Journal of the senate when on one occasion, Thurman being temporarily called to the chair, and certain sena tors refused to vote, he counted the quorum. The galleries vigorously ap plauded the recital of thin action on the part of Thurman, and Hill said: "There is a precedent which I ask this body to Imitate. There is one distin guished man whom I propose to follow rather than the lead of the distinguish ed senator from Alabama." Sherman, of Ohio, then addressed the senate. He said the rules of the senate had been made to expedite pub lic business In an orderly and proper manner, and their object was to en able the senate to legislate... But when the rules were used by the minority to obstruct legislation, the rules should at once be altered. Whenever the mi nority used a menas of obstruction unduly it created a revolution. He thought, therefore, that probably at this session the time had arrived when tha senate must adopt rules to pre vent obstruction to public business. The proper way to secure a limit of debate was, at the next session of congress, to have the committee on rules strengthened In numbers and to have It examine all the various rules and report one that would give the minority full power to express their opinion and prescribe a time when and where the final vote could be taken. If the present vcondltlon was continued, the senate could no longer command the respect of active and Intelligent people. Sherman said that the respon sibility In the present situation rested in the democratic slda. Thre eor four Important matters demanded a solu tion and the senate stood in the way. We ask our brothers on the other side to consult each other. If they do not like the president's plan on sliver give us some other, and in Gou b name let us settle this important situation for the people of our country." Morgan asked If Sherman would vote for the unconditional repeal of the en tire Sherman act. "No," replied Sher man emphatically, "and no other man who understands the subject would do It, In my Judgment." Morgan said he. Intended to offer an amendment to that effect soon. In con elusion. Sherman said: "Break down this barrier now maintained by the United States senate; break up this Insolent and violent obstruction to the will of the majority; give the senate free power, and In ten days n-om tnis time the aspect will bright en, business will resume Its ordinary course, and all the clouds that have lowered on our house will, In the deep Dosom or tne ocean, be buried." The senate took a recess until to morrow morning at 10 o'clock. The storm which broke in the senate today serves as an tndetf of the feel ing of impatience and resistence which is gradually accumulating. Sherman's taunt of the democrats for failure to agree among themselves has the ef fect of Increasing the prospect for a caucus among the democratic senators. There will possibly be a Joint demo cratic caucus 4t both house and sen ate as suggested by Senator Hill, and acqulescd in. by Senator Butler. All tha members of the senate are begin ning! to feel that the present strain cannot last a great while longer, and a desperate effort will be made to find relief In some direction. The silver men court an adjournment and appear confident that the result would be fa vorable to them. Washington, Oct. 17. In the house the bloody shirt was waved for a time this morning when the bill re moving the necessity for affirmative proof of the loyalty of pensioners of wars previous to the dvH war was called. Burrows claimed that it would repeal the section barring from pen sions all who were engaged In the rebellion. "Call the hell hounds off the track of ' the Union soldiers," vehemently said Burrows, "before you restore- the who were false to the Union to the pension rolls." (Republican applause.) -pates said he had fought four years for what he believed to be right, but now he was devoted to the Uulon and would shed more blood In Its defense than Burrows ever did. He suggested that the bill be modified to exclude pensioners. The modification was ac cepted and the bill passed. The house then resumed its consideration of the Cox banking bill, which also passed.
