The closing acenes In the house wore of
more than uaual Intere.t.
Th laat legislative act of the house was
th passage of a Joint resolution author,
iilng the acceptance by the I'niteO States
of the cession of a tract of hind from the
tale of Massachusetts, neejed to extend
tha line, of Boxton navyyard. It was
now 11:45 by the clock, but the assistant
doorkeeper with . long pole set bjick the
hands W minutes. This ralsvd; a loud
laugh.
Inunedlntely afterward (here was a
nstmt drumallc episode. (General Wheeler.
who has carefully refrained from exer.
clsltig his privilege as a member of the
house) pending determination of the ques.
tioti as to his rfcht to his .exit In the
house, arose from his old scat down near
the front on the democratic "''le, and
loudly askcl for recognition.
"Mr. 9eftker." he called. The speaker'
face was Hushed sllchtly. but he looked
straight ahead as if he did not hear. "I
ask unanlmotia consent to .peak for live
minutes," shouted the general, but the
sivnker disregarded him. Every eye was
now rivlted upon the diminutive figure
of the grlMly old veteran of two wars.
Tho rlluatUm was Intensely draninlic, but
I'ayni. the floor leader of the majority,
hurried to tha rescue He moved n recos
for 10 minute.
"rending that I ask unanimous consent
to spcik for three minutes." ilnianded
Wheeler. The speaker then turned to.
word him for the first time. and. looking
straight Into the gray eyes of the general,
iguorod the request complctdy, putting
the motion of Tayno nnd declaring It
carried.
Aa the hands of the clock pointed to
seven minutes to 12. although It waa
really three mlnutea past the hour, the
committee appointed to wait upon Hie
president marched down the aisle. The
speaker had retired to his room and
Payne, speaker pro tern., was in the
chair. Dalxell. In the center, announced
that the committee had fulfilled Its duty,
and the president hud made reply that he
had no further communication to make.
"The president requested us to slate."
he continued, "that the 55th congress, had
performed Ita extraordinary duties man.
fully, and he requested mo to extend to
each and every member his best wishes
for a safe return home."
But five minutes remained. In It was
enacted' one of the most dramatic scenes
ever witnessed In the hall of represen
tatives. Payne summoned Doekory diem
ocrat, of Missouri), to the chair, and ho
In turn recognised Bailey, the minority
leader in this congress, to present a
resolution thanking the speaker for the
Impartial manner In which he had presld.
ed over the deliberations of the house.
Pockery. when the applause hHd sub.
sided, appointed Bailey. Bell (populist, of
Colorado) and Payne to escort tho speak,
er to tho chair.
A moment later as the speaker emerged
from tho lobby, escorted by the commit,
tee, tho cheers that rreeted his appear,
anoe mado tho rafters ring, Slowly the
speaker ascended the rostrum, gracefully
pockery informed him of the action of
the bouse, and then relinquished the
gavel to htm. As the speaker faced the
house, the stillness of death settled down
upon It. People In the galleries seemed
to have censed to breathe, o oppressive
waa the silence. The speaker fairly
towered over his surroundings. Slowly
and with great deliberation he returned ;
ihanka for th cnmrdlmtnt the house
h.id conferred upon him.
