A Proposed Rule for Securing a Quorum. 1894, April 12-Mr. CATCHINGS presented this report from the Committee on Rules:

"Rescind clause I of Rule VIII and insert in lieu thereof the following:

"1. Every member shall be present within the Hall of the House during its sittings, unless excused or necessarily prevented, and shall vote on each question put, unless he has a direct personal or pecuniary interest in the event of such question.

be collected and paid into the Treasury of the United States.

"The entry of such fine shall be made substantially in the following form, namely: 'The House of Representatives of the United States, at the request of one-fifth of its members present, having ordered the yeas and nays of its members on a question pending therein, to be entered on its Journal, and upon a call of the roll of its members for that purpose, a quorum thereof having failed to vote, and [here set out the name and State of the member or members fined] having been within the Hall of the House and failed to vote when his name was called, without having a direct personal or pecuniary interest in the event of such question (or, as the case may be, "absent from the Hall of the House when his name was called, without having been excused, or necessarily prevented from being present"), it is therefore ordered and adjudged by the House of Representatives of the United States of America that a fine of $10 be, and the same is hereby, entered against [here set out the name of the member fined], which sum shall be collected and paid into the Treasury of the United States.'

The names of all members who shall be fined on the same roll call may be included in a single entry on the Journal; and if fines shall be entered on more than one call during the same day, the second entry on the Journal relating thereto, shall have the caption, Fine number two,' the third entry, Fine number three,' and so on.

"It shall be the duty of the Clerk of the House to certify to the Sergeant at-Arms of the House the names of all members against whom fines are so entered, and unless they shall be voluntarily paid to him, he shall deduct the amount of said fines from the compensation of said members, and all sums that may be paid to, or so deducted by him, shall be paid by him into the Treasury of the United States.

"A call of the roll of the members of the House shall not be deemed to have been completed until the Speaker shall have made all necessary orders regarding fines which may be imposed on members in pursuance of the provisions of this rule.

"It shall not be in order to move, nor shall the Speaker entertain a request for unanimous consent, to remit the fines required to be entered as aforesaid."

Mr. CATCHINGS demanded the previous question on the adoption of the report; on which the yeas were 142, nays II, (not voting 200):

"Whenever in pursuance of section 5, Article I. of the Constitution of the United States, the House of Representatives, at the request of onefifth of the members present, shall order the yeas and nays of its members on any question to be entered on its Journal, and upon the call of roll YEAS-Messrs.

No quorum. The day was spent in "filibustering" proceedings.

April 13-There was a Democratic caucus on this question. Before adjournment it adopted a resolution," as the sense of the caucus, that the Committee on Rules should report to the House a rule, or an amendment to the rules, by means of which members present and not voting may be taken into account in determining the existence or non-existence of a quorum, and to compel the attendance of absent members."

Adoption of a Rule for Counting a
Quorum.

IN HOUSE.

1894, April 17-Mr. CATCHINGS made this report from the Committee on Rules:

"The Committee on Rules, to which was referred resolution 21, heretofore introduced by Mr. DE ARMOND, reports the same back with the accompanying substitute, and recommends that the substitute be adopted:

66 6

Amend Rule XV, by inserting between clauses 1 and 2 the following as clause 2, and change the number of clause 2 to clause 3:

66

Upon every rall call, and before the beginning thereof, the Speaker shall name two members, one from each side of the pending question, if practicable, who shall take their places at the Clerk's desk to tell the names of at least enough members who are in the Hall of the House during the roll call who do not respond, when added to those responding, to make a quorum. If a quorum does not respond on the roll call, then the names of those so noted as present shall be reported to the Speaker, who shall cause the list to be called from the Clerk's desk and recorded in the Journal; and in determining the presence of a quorum to do business those who voted, those who answered presest, and those reported present, shall be considered. Members noted may, when their names are called, record their votes, notwithing the provisions of clause I of this rule.'
