Shingle stated that this resolution Is designed to take tho place or the purchasing ngeut clauso of Act C2, which tho House yesterday voted to re peal. "I have seen tho Governor," ho said, "and he approves of this resolu tion." "I have not seen tho Governor," In terjected Coney, "but I think It Is n good resolution nnd ought to be adopt ed." Tho resolution was adopted unanim ously.

Forget MORE TALK (Continued from Pase 1) "regulars" this morning, and, nl though defeated for the moment, they Inflicted consldcrnblo damage ami profess themselves icndy to renew tho conlllct. Cohen openly charged Speaker llolsteln with mhitrnry and unjust methods, nnd eharactcilzi'd his treatment of Stenographer Llojd I as high-handed and unfair. Lloyd, ho said, wns not given a squaro deal by tho Speaker. He Intimated that the star-chamber cessions of tho Speaker's "Cabinet," of which ho is not n member, are getting obnoxlouj to somo of tho mcmhuis. Sheldon, Imitating the lato Com modore Vnnderbllt, made tho Inter esting and startling statement that It Is none of 'tlio public's business what tho House cloeH as regards its own ofllcors. The trouble In tho House started this morning over tlio older given by tho Speaker to the Clfrk.to-re.nl Ste nographer Lloyd's letter of resigna tion. It was prefaced, however, by u row in tho Speaker's pilvatc of- lice, In tho presenco of sovernl Inter ested members and press representa tives, between th Speaker and Lloyd. Lloyd llntly nccusd llolsteln of vio lating his promlso nnd of giving him n "dirty deal" to get even with him. Tlio row wns over tho matter of Lloyd's letter of lestgnntlon. The Speaker told tho Monographer that ho was going to lay the letter before tlio House. Lloyd reminded him thnt ho had promised not to do this, but to plnco tlio letter before the "Cab inet." And, In furt, tho Speaker did mnko tho statement jesterdny thnt ho had promised Lloyd thnt the let ter should not go before the House "Well, jour resignation is accepted and I am going (o gtvo tho letter to tho Houso this mottling. That's all I have to say," announced llolsteln. "It looks to mo as It this were a dirty deal," said Llojd. "When I wroto that letter I did not know that thcio woio nny ehargus against me, but I hnvo since learned that some pretty rotten charges were made nt tho 'Cabinet' mcctfng yesterday aft ernoon. ..The. premutation of thnt letter under th? circumstances will look llko an admission of guilt on my part." Llojd nnd the 8pcaker wcro both Very angry. Thoi Speaker walked out and Into tho House, vvhcio ho proceeded to carry but his threat. lly direction of tho Speaker, the Clerk read to the Houso Lloyd's let ter of resignation' id tho Speaker, In which tho stenographer stated thai lifter n quiet consultation with Cac tro, he found that tho arrangements and prices for typewriting agreed upon weio to establish n prlro for tho ordinary Oping of bills by oul- sldo parties. "This fact has icsultcd lu a serious misunderstanding of tho enso on my part, I reallzo thnt tlio Inllucnco of yourself and Mr. Castro In a great measure secured mo tho position of stenographer, hence I hnvo nsked Mr. Alfonso to withdraw tho icsolutltin, If such might bo possible, and have llio same expunged from "iu min utes. "As you hnvo mado other arrange ments for getting out tho minutes, I sco tho useless necessity of my stay ing on nny longer, nnd in tlio spirit of economy jou so much deslie, I tender hereby my resignation." Tho Speaker's curt letter accept ing tho resignation wns also lead. Cohen nt once sprang to his feot. "I undci stand from Mr. Llojd," ho snld, "that this resignation was written by Mr. Lloyd before certain charges wcro mado against him, Ho feels, nnd I feel, that tho ncceptanro of this resignation at this tlmo would bo an Injustice to him, ns confirm ing tho charges thnt hnvo been made against him. Mr. Lloyd Is entitled to n sqnaro deal, nnd I do not think the resignation should bo accepted until theso charges nro Investigat ed." Sheldon said ho did not know of any charges that' hud been made against Llojd nnd ho saw no reason why tho leslguatlon should not be accepted. "Moieovor, tho Speaker has already accepted tlio resignation and I don't see that wo can'do other wise." Tho Speaker stated that tlio mat ter was subject to revision by tho House as to whether or not the Speaker had dono his duty. Alfonso stnted that ho declined to withdraw Lloyd's resignation, "Charges have been mado In this Houso ngnlnst Mr. Lloyd. I hnvo heard them and every member of the House lias he.ud them. Am we to hnvo stnr-ehaiubei- pincecilliigs) mid not give this man 'who Is accused a chance to defend himself? I think It Is duo mo and evory member of this Ilnuso who Is not n member of the "Cabinet" thnt we be allowed lo know about this tliliib'- It Is "an In To take your Films and Negatives to justice to try Mr. Lloyd and not give him an opportunity to defend him self." Tho Speaker said that no charges had been made lu tho Houso -against Mr. Llojd. "It is none of tho public's btisl nefs," declared Sheldon, "what this House docs hero on the floor, I'm i not going back to my constituents nnd explain the trouble the House had Willi Its steiiugrnpher," Knlelopu stnted that although no ehnrges hud been mado on tho llooi of the House, jet ehnrges had been made and they wcro public ptopcily. Ho wni sorry the resignation of Llojd had been accepted by tho Speaker for the charges against the members of this ltnute mo very se rious nnd should be thoioughly In vestigated. "1 nm very sorry thnt nunc members of this House have made themselves to notorious nB to publish In the paper things they know onlj by hcnisay. 1 know that some committees are employing clerks that they havo no right to have. If tliut Isn't u graft I don't know what It Is. I am now pictur ing another resolution to investigate everybody in this House, from Hie Spenkcr down." Shingle accepted tho motion to confirm the notion of tho Speaker In accepting the resignation of Lloyd. Cast i o denied that ho had any thing to do with the resignation of Lloyd, or had asked him to present It. Cohen reiterated his statement that the neccptaneo of tho resigna tion now would be taken virtually ns an admission of guilt on tho part of Mr. Lloj-il, although the leslgnntlun was written out before Lloyd knew any charges had been preferred against him. Shingle thought it ridiculous that thlity member:! should wrangle for nn hour over, the resignation of the stenographer when It had been cleni- ly shown thnt ho was the loot of all tho trouble. , lie said that In second ing the motion to accept tho resigna tion ho did not, want to he under stood ns accepting ns pioved the chnigcs Against Lloyd. Kama,, thought that ns the story had becn;)iibll8hed In the II u 1 1 d - 1 1 u nnd would theiefore go nil over tho world, iv thorough investigation ought to tit'-miide. He thought all members audi olllecrs of tho House should be Investigated. Cohen inovml. to amend the motion to necept tho resignation by defer ring nctldn until nfter tho Investi gating committee had mado Its re port. Tho' motion was ruled out of order ami tho voto on tho orlglnnl motion was taken. Cohen called for tho ayes nncl noes. Tho voto stood IS to 0 lu fnvor of accepting the leslguatlon. Alfonso, Cohen, l-'urln do, Knlelopu. Kealawan, and Long voted no. Five members wcro nb- t-cnt and tho Speaker did not vote. STANDARD MAY (Continued from Pais ll tor.
