Political Division of the House on the
Tariff Issue.
& Gratifying Show of Incmudng Strssgth Iijt !h
Democrat*—Morrison Merely Putting the Force*
Vpfii Urea Psradc.
Washington, December 20.—A majority
of the house came up faithfully at the
command of the protection barons on the
test vote. By a majority of five—149 ayes,
154 noes—the house refused to go into the
cofimittee of the whole for the conBideru-
tio of revenue bills. The announcement
made by the clerk was 148 ayes, 154 noes,
but this was an error, a careful verification
of the tally-sheet made to-night by the lie-
publican’s correspondent showing the
.affirmative vote to have been 149. A cor
rection will have to be made on Monday
and the record as corrected will show the
house was divided as follows: Ayes, 149;
noes, 154; not voting, 19; vacancies, 8; total,
325. Of the affirmative votes six were by
republicans, while of the negative votes
six were by democrats. Among the pairs
two democrats were paired nguinst dem
ocrats.
There were fewer absentees than on the
vote last June, all but twenty-one of the
members answering to their names, while
in June twenty-seven members were absent
Of the Missouri members, every one was
in his seat and answered on the call, with
the exception of Mr. Glover, who, rumor
says, is in New York preparing for a wed
ding next week. Of the nineteen absentees
fourteen were paired, but five democrats
were ubsent without pairs, viz: Aiken of
South Carolina, Ellsberry of Ohio, lleid of
North Carolina, King of Louisiana and
lteagan of Texas. Reagan was in the Cap
itol building, but happened to be momen
tarily absent from the hall of the house
at the time tho roll was called. Pour of
the five would certainly have voted for
consideration if they had been present,and
Mr. Ellsberry has since stated that he
would have voted no. Taking tho senti
ment of the whole house, therefore, as
shown upon the voto by the pairs and by
the known sentiments of the five who were
absent, to-day’s division showed ICO mem
bers for tariff reform and 102 against. This
is the closest shave protection has yet re
ceived and most satisfactory evidence that
the reform sentiment is surely growing.
GRATIFYING.
As heretofore indicated Mr. Morrison
has had no hope of doing more than bring
the tariff reform forces out on dress parade
to show the country that nothing occurred
in the recent elections to halt or even dis
courage tnriff agitations. Looking at it
from this view the test of strength made
to-day was in every respect gratifying to
Morrison and the other leaders of reform.
In May, 1884, when the voto was taken in
the forty-eighth congress upon the hori
zontal reduction bill, the result announced
showed a majority of four against the bill.
The members were absent of whom two
(republicans) were opposed to the
bill and wero not paired, so that
tho majority against tariff reform
upon that test was rcully six votes. In June
last, the vote as announced was 140 for re
form, 107 against, one democrat among the
absentees not being paired; so that the
true majority on this test was sixteen
voteB against reform. To-day, as shown,
this majority has been whittled down to
two votes. The sure progress ill the right
direction is best illustrated, however, by
comparison of the division of the whole
house upon each test made, taking into ac
count the members who were absent, pair
ed or otherwise. The division upon the
three coses in question taken upon this
basis was os follows :
For Against Majority
tariff reform, tnriff reform, against.

ANOTHER GOOD FEATURE.
It will' observed thnt never bo fire has
the reform sentiment of the house been as
strong nnd the opposition as weak in num
ber. Progress in tho right direction lias
been steady and constuut as well as sure,
"nils can be seen still more plainly in the
fact whioh it was predicted in these dis
patches would he developed by the vote
to-day, that upon eaeii test made Mr. Ran
dall has had a smaller number of demo
crats acting with him than upon any pre
vious vote. ’I'lie states from which lias
been drawn democratic help In his strug

The twenty-nine members who stood up
to-day to obey the commands of the pro
tection barons were the following: Ala
bama—Marlin; Illinois—Lawler, Ward;
-Louisiana—Uay, Iron, St. Martin, Wal
lace; New Jersey -Green, McAdoo; New
York—Bliss, Merrinnn, Muller, Spriggs,
Stahlneekor; Ohio—Campbell, Foran, God-
■ des, LcFovro, Honey, Warner, Wilkins;
Pennsylvania—Cr.rtln, Boyle, Ermentrout,
Randall, Bowden. This list gives twenty-
six of the twenty-seven, and the other
three were Henly, of California, and Pid-
covk, of Now Jersey, who were paired
with democrats, and Ellsberry, who was
not paired, but would not have voted lor
consideration.
Randall 1ms, therefore, lost seven votes
since last Juno. Of these live have been
lost in New York—Arnot and Dowdney,
who have died—Campbell, Viele and Pin
dar, who took the other side to-day. The
progress made in tariff agitation is quite as
strikingly illustrated by the conversions
whicn have been nmde in the republican
ranks. Upon the test vote in May, 1884,
not one republican voted with Morrison,
-while last Juue he received live votes from
the republican side, and to-day six. The
four republicans of Minnesota—Nel
son, Strait, Wakefield and White—voted
with him to-day; but James of New York
returned to the republican fold, while two
new converts were made in Massachusetts
—Hayden and Stone. The two democrats
who were temporarily absent from the
hall of the house when the roll was called,
and so wero unable to record their votes—
Reagan and Ellsberry announced this
evening that on Monday they will ask un
animous consent to have their names in
cluded in the roll. Mr. Reagan will ask to
be put down as voting aye, and Mr. Ells
berry will ask to be put down as voting no.
