TAYLOR RESOLUTION
Special Committee to Investigate Charges Against Brig ham H. Roberts.
MORMON DENIED A SEAT
Durum' tlm Vrogros-i oi Ini|tiiry Into IIis t.'asi' tit-. Vtobci'is Not. I'erniitteil 10 I'hm i-'.pato In Any Siogisbilatit iv«» louon— hliort Ncs-iion of the Senate-.
Washington, Dec. 6. After an interesting debate of three hours the house yesterday by a vote oi: 302 ro 80 adopted the resolution offered by Mr. Taylor of Ohio for the appointment of a special committor to investigate the charges against Brighani II. Roberts, the Mormon repre.-ienuil ive-elect from Utah.
Previously the house had rejected a sub-resolution offered by Mr. Richardson, the leader oi' tho minority, to allow Mr. Roberts to be sworn in and to send the whole ease to the judiciary committee. Tins sub-resolution, however, by no means commanded the full Democrat io strength. Only 57 members voted for it. Of tho 30 who voted against the Taylor resolution, all were Democrats except two—Mr. Loud, a California Republican, and Mr. Nevrland, a Silverito l'rotn Nevada.
By the terms of the resolution Mr. Roberts is not only exoluded from all participation iu the proceedings of the house until the committee reports and the house passes upon his case, but he is denied a seal, in, the hall. Whether this wili be interpreted to deny him admission within the chamber peuding disposition of his case is yet to be decided.
The reading of the president's nie--sage was completely overshadowed by the dramatic proceedings which resulted iu the action of the house.
The galleries were thronged with spectators, mostly women, who sat patiently through the three weary her. •.* that preceded the debate, and tl) waited tnreu hours more until it was concluded.
The most remarkable feature of the debate was the fact that Mr Roberts' presentation of his own side of tho case, which lasted almost an hour, became so absorbing that he won the sympathy oi many of those in the galleries and was several times showered with applause. It was evident that he realized that the house was overwhelmingly against him and at times he spoke iiercly and defiantly.
Mr. Taylor conducted the case upon liis side. Mr. Richardson championed his resolution.
During the debate Mr. Grosvenor (Rep. O.) rose to indignantly repel an insinuation of Mr. Roberts that- the president had knowingly appointed men guilty of pOiVgainy to federal oiiice in Utah.

Heading of tlie President's Message Consumed Most of tlie Time. Washington, Dec. 6.—The senate session lasted less than three .hours yesterday, practically the entire time being consumed in the reading of the president's message. 'sThe reading was largely perfunctory, lew senators according it any attention.
The announcement of the death of Senator-elect Monroe L. Hay ward of Nebraska was received by the senate with sincere regret. Although he was not officially a member of the body, lie was wellkuown to many of the senators and was held by them in high regard. At the conclusion of the reading of the message the senate adopted resolutions of regret presented by Senator Thurston of Nebraska and, as a further mark of respect, immediately adjourned.
FINANCIAL BILL.
House Hcpublicans Caucus 10 ConJ^siiior Plans to Advance Measure. Washington, Dec. G.—About 100 Republican members of the house attended a caucus last night to consider plans for advancing the financial bill. Mr. Gannon of Illinois was chosen caucus chairman in the place of Mr. (Jro.ivenor oi Ohio, who asked to be excused from serving.
Mr. Payne of New York, who assisted in framing tho financial bill, explained how tile work had been done in order to facilitate the work of congress.
Mr. Overstreet of Indiana, who presented the biil, explained it section by section. As he proceeded many questions were asked, mainly by Messrs. Hopkins of Illiuois, Hepburn of Iowa, Hill of Connecticut and McLeary of Minnesota, but they were not in a captious manner and indicated a desire to reach a clear understanding. One of the inquiries was to the effect of a continued depreciation of silver, to which Mr. Overstreet answered that further depreciation would be impossible under the terms of the bill, as silver could be taken to the treasury and exchanged for gold, thus maintaining the parity of the metals.
As to the establishment of a gold standard it was stated that while it
might not lead to the actual coinage of gold dollars, yet it would preserve a staple standard just as some states keep an official yard stick as a standard.
Mr. Overstreet continued his explanations until il o'clock, when in response to a general sentiment the caucus adjourned until this afternoon.

\Y ASM I AG'i'n -.. 1 )«•«•. 7.— lSpfCial.| The preliminaries iiiiiicato quite it lively session ol' oete.rri ss even if there is not very umcii In iness transacted. From tho very beginning there was an intiniaiii',11 that both of the great political parties would try and make the best of every sii.uation with a view of iullucuciiig llie next election. Nearly every congress preceding a presidential election becomes more or less political in ils character from the very nature of the situation, the desire of each party being to gain every possible advantage before the country. It was in the Republican caucus that the lirst official nolice was served that political lines would lie drawn rather sharply when the resolution was passed, which meant that members were under party obligation to attend tho sessions regularly. Tho adoption of the old rules in their entirety was another move in the same direction. This in itself was interesting because many members of the present house had complained bitterly of the manner Iu which the old rules worked to prevent the average member from securing the rights of it representative on the tloor. But when the arguments were made it became apparent that lite Republicans who had complained felt that it would be against party policy and discipline to attempt to make auy important changes In the rules, and the old rules were sustained.
Tlie OtIn*r
The Democrats l'eel that the political advantage of the session is with them. Thoy have no responsibility for legislation, as the Republicans have control of all branches, and every net that is passed must bo charged directly upon them. As a party of purely opposition, with nothing to do but criticise or support measures as they may deem expedient, without any responsibility for acts of the administration, the Democrats feel tliat they can uiako a record fur themselves which will appeal to tlie country. So the prospects for an interesting session from a political poinL of view are of the best. Such sessions, while never accomplishing much in the way ol' legislation, often resent more interesting phases' than those whose acts are not politically important, but whose legislation is of farreaching importance to the country. The majority of the Republicans this session is not very large, and the Democrats have already pointed out that the contests are not likely to change many seats, consequently it is believed that the Republicans will need all their membership 011 all occasions when party measures are considered. Iu this view of the case it has already been determined to urge all Democrats to remain iu Washington and refuse ti make pairs on contested election cases, which will result in keeping most of the contested members in the house. Many Republicans are not in favor of unsealing a man iless there is a very good case against him. as the charge will be made thai such unseating has been done for the purpose of increasing the small majority.
Cnrrrliry LoK'iMiai Ion.
The determination of the Republican leaders in both houses to push currency legislation is sure to cause some warm political debates. From the very first the currency hills will become causes of disagreements in both houses, and the impression seems to be that there will be few breaks 011 either side, as "support of the measure will be made a tost of party loyalty by the Republicans and opposition as absolutely necessary in tbe articles of faith by Democrats. In having tin lines drawn so sharply at the beginning of (he session it is more than likely Hiat the two parties will become solidified, as they did in the Fifty-first' congress and afterward in the Fifty-third, the Repiildicnns being in full control in one and ihe Democrats iu the other. Full party control is ant to foster political feeling, especially when any legislation like the currency or lariff is considered. While the Democrats will oppose the currency bill in both houses with vigor. it is generally understood that the opposition will never "reach the stage of a filibuster. They say that as soon as Ihore lias been ample debate in the senate the bill will pass if the Republicans are satisfied. .' Tin- HoIxm-Im Cn«c.
Neither polities, currency, the Philippines. nor. in fact, all of tho other subjects together have caused half the talk about Washington that the member elected from Utah lias. Mr. Roberts has become more notorious than everything else in congress. While men discuss all the other subjects and members of both houses comment on the president's message and his recommendations. and while tlie.v agree that there are really topics of more Importance to tlie country than the case of Mr. Roberts, yet they acknowledge that thus far be lias overshadowed everything else in the congressional as well as the public mind. It shows the power of public opinion.
Through it all there is considerable sympathy expressed for the man from Utah. He has a faculty of making some good friends aisiong those who know him best, and they say he would have been a very useful member of the house had he entered that body under favorable auspices.
