day as was anticipated The republicans
showed fight nt the vety outiet find
scored the fltst victory llcfore the time
ui rived for Mr Wilson to take the floor
Mr McCrcary tried to nriange an ami-
cable nsreennnl by which two days Fri-
day and Sntmday should be given to the
Consideration of the Hawaiian resolution
Mr llltt the republican leader of tho
foreign affairs committee expressed his
willingness to ncaulesce In tho uriange
ment but Mr Boutelle of Maine Wanted
to pieclpllate the question Immediately
by calling up his resolution lloth sides
were ugly hut ufler n lively row tho
speaker held that lloutelles resolution
was pulvllcgod
Tho democratic members of the ways
and means committee were not wlUIitB to-
go ahead with the Hawaiian discussion
until the tat Iff bill had been sotteli under-
way however and the question of con
sla ratlon was raised against lha Uoutelle
bill Ihe republicans then executed a flank
movement by refusing to vote The demo-
crats found themselves In the humlllatlnir
position ot not beiiiK able to muster n
quorum They weie In chock and after re-
voking nil leaves ot absence Mr Wilson
ii ucmntly moved an adjournment
The demociats expect 1 quorum tomor-
row but the effect ot the republican tac
tls will probably be that tho Hawaiian
matter will b postponed until the tariff
bill is diposed of
Mr lloiitelle durlns the colloquy was
alio on his feet clamoring for recognition
and before Mr Hilt had baldly concluded
his statement he said
Mr Speaker 1 desire to call up a ques-
tion of privilege the lesolutlon Introduced
by myself reciting that the rights and
liberties of the house havo been Invaded
by the executive
Immediately 1 dozen democrats began to
ptotest
Mr island of Mlsrourl wanted to havo
the question ot consideration and General
Wheeler of Ualmivi ileuvimled the tegu
lar order which he loudly Insisted was the
pdmlslon of New Mexico
Speaker Crisp silenced the turbulence
by a few sharp raps of the gavel after
nhcli he slid he desired to look Into the
status of the resolution While this ques-
tion was being examined Into Mr Mr
Millln nfked Incidentally whether It would
be In order to me the question of con-
sideration with a view of going ahead

Mr Uoutello again made n statement
which rilled forih n sharp rebuke from

him to order
If tho gentleman will only possess him-
self said he the chair will try to state

He went on to explain that the resolu-
tion had gone to the committee on foreign
affairs and had been reported back with
the request that It He on tho table n sub-
stitute being offered In Its stead
Mr Turnur of Georgia made tho point
that the substitute having gone to the
culeudnr Its prlvllego had been lost but
the speaker after citing several decisions
held that Inasmuch ns the Boutelle reso-
lution was on tho speakers table It had
not lost Its privilege
Mr McMIUIn thereupon raised the ques-
tion of consideration against it anil after
some further vri angling a vote was taken
The republicans iefu cd to vote when
their nitmoM wcro culled

Wilson camo in from the hftuse lobby and

nessee who Is to be chairman of tho
committee of the whole during the tariff
debate held a brief consultation with him
before the call wns finished
The vote resulted 1U to 3 the democrats
lacking exactly 40 of 11 qlormn With evi
dences of intense satlsfution the repub
licans heard the announcement and Mr
lloiitelle presumptuously made the point
of no quorum The democrats were gen
