KENNEDY'S SPEECH COMES UP FOR CONSIDERATION,
But tbm Tariff BUI in tbe Chief Point Of Interest at the Capital-How It Waa Handled In the Committee —Plumed Knlg;ht Mentioned.
Washington, September 15.-Mr. McKinley, of tha Committee on Ways and Means, reported back tha tariff bill with Senate amendments with tbe recommendation that the amendment be non-concurred in. Referred to tbe Committeeon tbe Whole. Mr. McKinley then offered a resolution from the Committee Rul **’ but h*for* it could be read Mr. Enloe, of Tennessee, rose to a question of nrivilege. He offered the following resolution: • “Resolved, JTbat tbe Clerk of the House of Representatives be directed to communicate to the Senate the fact that the House reprobates and condemns the utterance ot tbe Hon. Robert P. Kennedy, as Representative from the State of Ohio, delivered in the House September 3, reflecting upon the character and integrity of the Senate as a body.” Mr. Dingley, of Maine, raised tbe point of order that this did not present such a question of privilege as would take the gentleman from Ohio (Mr. McKinlev) from the floor. At
ported a resolution for the immediate consid' eration of the tariff bill in the House. ■‘After two boars general debate it shall be in order to move to non-concur in the Senate amendments in gro*s, and agree to tbe Committee of Conference asked for by the Senate, and tbe Honse shall, without further delay or other motion, proceed to vote on said motion.” The previous question on the resolution was ordered—yeas 116, nays 71. Mr. Blonnd, of Georgia, protested against the resolution, contending that it was a parady on deliberation. It would have been better to have provided for no debate, lor this course would at least* have had the semblance of directness. The right to vote on any separate amendment was denied to every member by this order. The House qpould reject this order. * It was an unfortunate spectacle; an order was to be made with a view of preventing tbe testing of the sentiffient of the House on any special proposition. The purpose of the order was to take the whole subject ot taxation from tbe House. The resolution stripped the rules of the last piece of conservatism which tb<

The itannte Amendments. The remainder of the Senate amendments to the tariff bill was put through the Ways and Means Committee in short order this morning, non-concurrence being recommended in each case. When the amendment fixing November 1 as the date upon which goods in bond imported should be withdrawn was reached, the Democratic members showed some disposition to amend tbe Senate amendment so as to xtend the time. Bat notwithstanding *h , apparent unanimity of the committee n the opinion that there should be an extension of a bonded period, it was decided that the result desired could be more speedily reached by leaving the matter to the conferrees than by undertaking to adjust it in tbe committee and Honse; so. as in the case of the other amendments, non-concurrence was noted and the chairman was authorized to report tbe bill to the House. The action, tor tbe considei menu. In deference to the wishes of many of the Republican members who returned to Washington this morning in answer to telegraphic calls, it was decided that the effort should be made to take up the tariff bill immediately in tbe House. This necessitated the displacement of the contested Virginia election case; but it was the understanding that its displacement should be only as long as was necessary to dispose of the bill and that the Republican members should be held in line to secure action upon the Virginia election case, as well as of the South Carolina case of Miller vs. Elliott, which it waa expected could be reached late in the day.

the bonds was recently granted.
