When Mr. Lever got the Smith bill on the way, there were frequent In? terruptions und delays on the part of Mr. Henry, who, taking advantage ol technicalities, made points of order against it, calling about every 30 min? utes for a quorum. This consumed about three-fourths of the day. When Mr. Henry took the lloor he declared that the bill was "reeking, saturated, intoxicated, with federalism" and that instead of being called a bill to license warehouses under government Inspec? tion it should be called a bill to abol? ish State warehouse laws. This s.. aroused Mr. Lever that he made a fiery reply and assailed Mr. Henry Ivigorously Cor his attitude on this im asure. As the de-hate proceeded the situa? tion became exceedingly warm and the remarks which passed between some of the m< mhera wer?- nol all of the friendliest kind.
