CREATED A STIR
Tho rosolution oroatod a sonsation.
It was a surprise oven to sovnral of tho
Republican leaders. Tho loadors of tho
JDemooratio sido sought in vain to hoal
oil tho rosolution with points of ordor,
but tho speaker ruled against them.
Thov then began a filibuster, openly
avowing that thoy would fight to tho
bitter ond overy proposition looking to
tho roduotion of roprosontation from
tho southorn States.
OUR REPUBLICAN ALLIES
Sovoral of tho Ropublioans wcro so

their indiffjronoo to the fato of tho
Olmstead resolution in tho end gavo

vhen tho question of o msideration
was raisod against tho rosolution, it
was defeated 81 83 Although tho vote
was a strict party voto, two llipubli

Illinois, answorod prosont but did not

TAKEN BY 8UBPRI3E.
The Olmatead resolution was offerod
immediately after tho reading of the
journal. A flurrvonsued on tho Demo
oratio side. Mr Uiohardson of Tonnes
see, the minority leader, interrupted
the reading to ask whether tho resolu
tionreq tired unanimous consent
"It does not,"rop!iod tho speaker.
"It is offered as a matter of privilege"
"1 make tho point that tho resolution
does not oonstituto a matter of nrivi
lege," said Mr. Riohardson.
"The reading has not proooedcd far
enough to determino that point," responded
the spoaker.
NO QUORUM PRK8ENT.
Mr. Underwood of Alabama immediately
made tho point that thero was
no quorum presont.
The speakerglanood about the house.
Evidently there was no quorum pres
ent. "The oha.r will count," ho said.
The house was oountcd and when the
speaker announced 141 presont?not a
quorum?Mr. Underwood immediately
moved an adjournment. The ayes and
nays wero demanded and obtained
upon this motion. During the roll oall
there were hurried consultations on
both sides of tho house. Many of the
Republicans were taken as muoh by
urpriso as the Domoorats. The latter
deoided to filibuster to the lastditoh.
The motion to adjourn was lost 68
to 69; answering present but not vot
log 14; ooted present 2; total 179. The
speaker inoluded himself in order to
make uptho quorum. When tho reading
of the resolution was oonoluded
Mr. Riohardson insisted that the resolution
was not privileged. Ho argued
that the resolution should go to a committee.
Mr. Olmstead in reply argued that
under the oomtitution, matters affeotinp
the reapportionment of representatives
were of tho highest constitutional
privilege and oitod an elaborate
opinion of Speaker K lifer, in tho fortyseventh
oongress, in support of his
position.
If ATMS OP PBIVILIOI.
Speaker Randall, he said, had also
held that an apportionment bill was a
matter of the highest privilege. His
resolution, he contended, Booking as
it did to determine tho constitutional
basis of representation, was equally
privileged. The house, he argued,
WW
II
could not aot intelligently unless it
was advired in what State? and to
what extoot the suffrage of oititens of
the United Statos had boon abridged
Mr. Olmstead mid the resolution
touched the dignity of the houHoitsolf
If tho suffrage had boen abridged in
ocrtain States thon members wore unjustly
and unconstitutionally holding
s* atsupon this floor and this oonsti
tilted an invasion of tho dignity of the
houso.
Tho matter dealt with by tho rosolu
iien might also affeot tho oleotisn of a
president of tho United States, a matter
hold ropoatedly to bo a matter of
high privilege. Mr. Olmstcad wai willing
to rost his oaso upon the plain
mardate of the constitution.
Mr. ll'ohardson mado a brief response
to Mr. Olmstead. Hooonocdcd
that an apportionment bill was privileged,
but oontendod that tho resolution
itself was simply ono of inquiry to
ascertain facts which might or might
not be truo.
' Tho resolution oloarly rooites that
in oertain States suffrage, has boen
ahridgod without roduotion of repro*
sontatioD," interposed Mr Olmstoad.
"Tho 'whereas' makes suoh a allegation,"
replied Mr. Uiohardsoo, "but
tho resolution is Birop'y ono of inquiry."
"llowoanwo apportion constitutionally,"
aikcd Mr. Mahon of Pcnnsylva
nia, "if wo do not know tho faots?
How can wo asoortain tho truth of tho
allegation that hundreds of thousands
of eitiaens are disfranchised?"
"An investigation oan bo made," re
plied Mr. llinhardson, 'but it must bo
mado in tho regular way."
THE SPEAKER'S RULING.
Tho spcarkor then announood that
ho question was oloarly Bottled by
S otion 2 of Artiolo 14 of tho oonstitu
lion, whioh ho dircotod tho olerk to
read It rolatod to tho reduction of
roprcsontatiou in States whoro tho
suffrage was abridged. Tho rosolution
and iti preamble, said tho spoaker, alleged
that ootain oonditions existed
whioh tho constitution exprossly prohibited
and it must bo paused upon by
a highor iu'o than those of tho houso
?tho constitution of tho United States.
Ho said ho never expeotod to pass
upon a question moro simple. Ho
ovorrulod tho point of ordor.
Mr. Undorwood immodiatoly raised
tho question of consideration against
tho rosolution. On a rising voto it
af AArl at on AO noAa 7A T1%a
uivvvt n/vo vi/, uvua i v. 1 11U djri'D HI1U
noes woro demanded and ordorcd. Tho
speakor announood tho voto 81 to consider
tho resolution, 83 against and 5
prosont but not voting?not a quorum.
Ho dircoted a oall of tho house, pond
ing whioh Mr. Underwood again moved
an adjournment.
Tho rising vote rosultod ayos 72, noes
54, but Mr. Olmstoad demanded tho
ayos and noop, whioh woro ordored.
Tho motion to adjourn was oarriod
77 to 75 and accordingly at 2 o'olook tho
houso ad j jurned.
Farmed Out a Jail.
Adispatoh from Uarkoraburg W. Va ,
says ''John M. Buokloy, the now jailer,
who took ohargo of the Wood oouoty
hastile on tho first of the yoar, paid
Sheriff eleot Dudley $3,000 for the privilege
of assuming complete control of
that institution for tho next four vcarp.
Jailor Buckley will pay all tho expenses
of tho establishment and will bo entitled
to all tho roooipts, official and otherwise.
This praotioe of "farming out"
tho jail is no now thing in this oouaty,
and had its orign in a peculiar custom
which hat obtained hore for many years.
Tho jail is a roomy building, and by
right of long established preoodent, its
koopor is permitted to oonduot it on
a tiair-priaon and half tavern basis
Ho is generally a oountry-man, with
numborloss friends from the rural die
triots, who patronizo his establishment
in prcferonoo to tho rogular hostelrios,
and during sessions of oourt and other
"bigdajs" in town tho jail isorowded
with throngs of willing as well asunwilling
tuest*.

the report of the ooroner's inquost in
the Rathbnn poisoning mystery was
made pnblio Wednesday. It finds that
the death of William Rathbnn was
oaused by poison pat into the ooffee of
a boarder John F. Hart, by Maria Ann
Rathbnn, wife of William. The intention
of Mrs. Rathbnn was to seonre the
death of Hart, with whom she is de*
olared to have had illioit relations.
J islousy because of Hart's neglect of
her and his attentions during the last
few months to another woman, is asoribed
in the ooroner's report as the motive
for Mrs. Rathbnn's alleged aot.
The poison was pat into Hart's dinner 1

Clomson College.
The Manufacturer's Kooord says:
"During its last session Clomson oollcgo,
South Carolina, had 461 students.
Fifteen moro mariculatod for tho prosont
session, while applications for admissions
of throo hundred others woro
rofusod beoauso of lack of faoilities for
them. Tho popularity of tho institution
is attributod by Prosident Hartxog in
annual roport to tho liberal terms for
students, to tho demand of the time*
for industrial training, and to consequent
demand for graduates, this in
t?omo linos being greater than the supply.
This showing of sucoes* is gratifying
to all workers for tho extension of
teohnioal training in tho South, and it
should onoouravo South Carolina laai*.
lators to inoroaso liberality toward the
institution that is so oroditably fitting
the yoaog moo of tho state to take
their plaoos io tho industrial prooesalon
of their oountry."
Right Mr. Bryan.
Anting upon tho advice of Mr. Bryan,
the W. J. Bryan Association of Cleveland,
Ohio, has ohanged its name to tha
Cuyahoga Association of Damoeratie
Clubs. Writing with respect to olnbc
whioh bjar his namo, Mr. Bryan says:
t4l think it is hotter that thoy should
drop my name in order that no mistakes
that I may mako may embarrass tha
oauao in which we are all enlisted,"
Inoidentally he again remarks that
"oiroumstanoes will determine who
should lead tho next fight."
