Ewart went to sleep on his feet-again in, the House today. He arose and informed the Speaker that the House resolution offered by-ihim yesterday, should have been a joint resolution, and that he wanted it to be considered by the "P, anu o." committee, , instead , of Judi-t-iary. So he moved to reconsider his buncombe "trust bill." His motion on a viva voce vote was close, and the chairman waited several seconds after the usual statement "the noes seem to have it," then came the decision me noes have it." Whereupon, Ewart, exactly in same mauccr aa he did yes. terday, arose and demanded :.a "divis- ,or , when his associates all around him knew the Ex-Congresgman ; had lougeri his motion too late.
