The possibility of defeating the consideration of the bill causes some of the Democrats, like Colonel Oates of Alabatua. to openly advocate a re-ort to the parliamentary expedient utilized by the Fifty-first congress of counting a quorum. Speaker Crisp as.-erts most jsisitively that they will not 1 forceil to this

proceedings to be begun at this time. Sneaker Crisp has decidi d that nothing is in order until a decision is reached regar ling tho order brought in from the committee on rules for the consideration of the Wilson bill. Impeachment proceedings must originate in the house, and therefore it would seem that this course mint be blocked until the qui tion now bef. ro the house is decided. Secretary Gresham has again stated that there was absolutely nothing to be given out on the Hawaiian question and that there would not l>e until the arrival of mail advices. This would seem to controvert the theory that the president intends to send a special message to con-
