ins the point, tested the house and
found himself eleven short of a qoor
nm. He stated that he could move to
morrow to close debate, an I every day
nntil the house baa voted 011 the bill.
The debate wag productive of one of
the most sensational scuues of the
tormy session. Mr. Ponce, the yoniu
Colorado Populist, vigorously scored
alike the Republicans and Democrats
for their attitude toward the bill, and
named several Republicans whom he
thought had not Toted ait they should,
charging it to the influsnee of Mr.
Reed. Mr. Fithtra (Dem , III.) criti
cised Mr. Patterson (Dem., Tenn, ) for
the inconsistency of hit spe.ch ou the
floor today, and the on he made before
the New York Democratic club Satur
day night, and denounced the wing of
the Democratic party which was op
posing the bill for their action.
In the midst of a speech by Mr. Hip
burn, (Rep., Iowa,,) who censured the
Democrats for refusing to count a
aqnorum, Messrs. Pickler and Eilis, of
Oregon, who had boon singled out by
Mr. Pierce as not voting their senti
ments, stated that he (Pierce) had ad
mitted to tbm that he enjoyed is much
as they seeing the Democrats in a
hole, and Mr. Pickler, In addition
stated that Mr. Pierce had said ho
hoped that bill would not pass.
These assertions were vehemently
douied as false by Mr. Pierce, and after
the committee rose, he made per
sonal explanation in the course of
which ho Whs twice called 10 order for
statements regarding Ellis and Haines,
of Nebraska. After the second breacn
of the rules the house voted, sixty to
thirty, that he should not be allowed
to proceed, and then at 5.80 adjourned
until tomorrow.
THE SENATE ADJOURNS EARLY.
The necessity or the anxiety of the
Democratic senators to arrive at some
definite agreement on the snbjict of
the tariff led to an early adjonrment of
the senate today, the remainder of the

caucus, aH a portion of the afternoon
