til today; he had no knowledge of In
formation concerning him, but accord
lug to bis own belief, he was a briber
and worse. ,
"Hut he was accredited by the sec
retary of state," interposed Mr. Rich
ardson, "and Instructed to go to our
minister in London."
"The gentleman artfully says the sec
retary of state made this man his
agent," cried Mr, Cannon, Indignantly.
"I know nothing about It. If anything
ought to be Investigated, I am for an
Investigation. But I am not in favor
of proceeding upon the extracts the
gentleman has read. Let the docu
ments he printed in full, then each
member of the house can net intelli
gently. 'No one will bo more swift than
1 to investigate charges affecting fed
eral oljjciuls and members of the
American congress.."
"But these charges were printed In
Denmark and were known here from
January 2S to February 17," Interposed
Mr. lllchardson. "Does the gentleman
not think the secretary of state should
have called the attention of the senate
to charges that $300,000 was being spent
to bring about a successful termination
of the negotiations?"
"I do not know anything about it,"
responded Mr. Cannon warmly, "anil
until I do, I will say nothing that
would dishonor any one. I demand a
vote."
Would Prevent Dishonor.
"I am not seeking to dishonor any
ono. I am seeking to prevent dishonor,"
replied Mr. lllchardson.
"The gentleman fears to have tho
house examine the documents before It
votes," retorted Mr. Cannon,
"I am not," Insisted Mr. Richardson.
"That Is exactly what I desire. I ask
unanimous consent now that this re
port be read in full from the clerk's
dnsk."
But Mr. Cannon angrily objected, his
objection being, sustulned by half a
dozen other Republicans, The speaker
then put tho question on Mr. Cannon's
motion to postpone. The Republicans
generally voted for the motion, hut
such a stentorian chorus of "noes"
came from the Democratic side that
the speaker announced:
"The noes seem to have It."
Mr. Cannon did not ask for a division
and the speaker declared tho motion
lost.
The resolutions were then perfected
by the insertion of "It Is alleged" bo
fore all assertions of fact. At the sug
gestion of Mr. Lueey (Iowa) the refer
ence in tho resolution to newspapers
was changed to read "newspapers or
pi ess associations."
With these changes the resolutions
wore put to a vote and were carried
without a dissenting vote. Tho speak
er Immediately announced tho investi
gation committee as named above. Tho
excitement then subsided and the house
turned to tho consideration of tho army
appropriation bill, which, after brief
dls-cusslon, was passed,
Tho president's messago on the re
linquishment of the control of Cuba
was then laid before tho house, and
after adopting a rule making tho sen
ate bill to promote tho efficiency of tho
revenue cutter service a special order
until disposed of, the house adjourned
