TO THE PRE8IDENT.
SAYS MESSAGE IS UNWORTHY'
Men Mentioned in White House Com
munications Take Turn in

rating Executive, But Careful
In Speech.
After having mado him the target
nil day for criticism, with hero nnd
there words of commendation, tho
houso of representatives Friday, by u,
voto of 212 to 35, rebuked tho presi
dent by tabling so much of his meB
Bngo as roAected on members of con
gress In connection with his recom
mendations regarding the secret serv
ice detectives, nnd also declaring it
to be the sense of the house that thoy
shall dccllno to consider any communi
cations from any source which is not
in its own Judgment respectful.
With feeling of outraged dignity nnd
pride on tho part of tho many of Its
members, tho houso Friday gnvo ItBolf
up entirely to a discussion of ono of
tho most momentous questions that

a legislative body in contradistinc
tion to those of the executive branch
of tho government.

dent's annual messago and his Bpecinl
mcBsngo of Inst Monday bearing on the

ns tho basis for omo of tho most
earnest nnd vigorous speeches ever
henrd In tho historic chamber. Tho
houso wnn In no mood to treat the
subject otherwise than seriously, al

behind them wero hundreds of others.
Thero wns not a moment during
the day thnt the gallery was not fully
occupied, many of the focelgn repre
sentatives being compelled to sit on
tho steps of tho aisles. This was also
truo of the president's gallery, al
though no members or his immediate
family were present. Neither was his
son-in-law, Representative Longworth
of Ohio, in his seat during any part
of tho day. So great was tho Interest
in mo proceedings thnt mnny senators
came ovor to tho house and sat for
several Rours.
Toward tho close of tho debate. Mr.

resolution In tho shape of an amend
ment expressing conAdenco In tho
commltteo on npproprlations nnd then
