attacking the democratic caucus and
declaring it a 'solid deck' for the

The house committee on the cen
sus agreed to amend the congres
sional apportionment bill so as to
provide for one representative for
Arizona and New Mexico when they
become states.
Senator Burrows delivered a
speech in the senate defending Sen
ator Lorimer.
The house of representatives has
adopted an amendment to tho Moon
bill codifying laws relating to tho
judiciary, which will stop the prac
tice of corporations doing an inter
state business from taking practi
cally all suits against them out of
the hands of tho state courts and
placing them in the federal courts.
Tho amendment was offered by Rep
resentative Garrett of Tennessee, and
after a preliminary skirmish, in
which party llnes were tightly drawn,
was finally adopted by a practically
unanimous vote. Mr. Garrett, in
explaining the amendment, said it
would prevent a New Jersey corpor
ation, for instance, from transferring
state suits against it to the supremo
court, on the ground that the offlcers
of the corporation live in New York.
The amendment is regarded as an
Important one and called out a gen
eral debate.
Democrats of the house turned
again upon Speaker Cannon January

for the Louisville Courier-Journal
describes the fight in this way:

power to discharge a committee from
further consideration of a bill that
has been referred to it. The insur
gents and the democrats believed
that this rule was iron-clad; that as
soon 4is the consideration of bills,
by unanimous consent, had been con
cluded on every first and third Mon
day of the month the house was

the motions to discharge committees

appropriation bill, upon which it had
been working last week. There was
an immediate rallying of forces and
stiffening of ranks among the insur
gents and democrats. Mr. Fitzgerald
insisted upon the consideration of a
motion to discharge a committee,
which was upon tho calendar,
Speaker Cannon declined to give Mr.
Fitzgerald tho preference, but said
