Accordingly the house went into committee of tho whole, with Mr. Richardson iDem., Tenn.) iu the chair, and Mr. Black Dem., Ga.t, a member of the banking aud cur rency committee, took the floor in favor of the bill. The debate started sluggishly, Mr, t U1....1. .i..:i ... u.s -......... 1. n.. banking and currency committee had heard only national bankrira while con pidering tho pending measure and had turned a deaf ear to all others. He met and panned other criticisms of opponents of the bill and gave an historical re view of the financial doctrines of Demo cratic presidents from Jefferson to Cleve land.
