Bill for the Abolition of Mileage.

IN HOUSE.

January 19, 1874-Mr. MACDOUGALL introduced the following bill, (H. R. 1243;) which was read twice and referred to the Committee on Mileage:

Be it enacted, &c., That after the passage of this act all allowance for mileage to Senators, Representatives, and Delegates be, and the same is hereby, abolished.

SEC. 2. That in lieu thereof each Senator, Representative, and Delegate shall be entitled to receive his actual traveling expenses to and from Washington once each way for each session of Congress.

April 15-Mr. BUNDY, from the Committee on Mileage, reported the bill without amendment, and demanded the previous question on the engrossment and third reading of the bill.

Mr. E. HALE moved the point of order that the bill takes money from the Treasury. The SPEAKER ruled that the bill could now be considered in the House.

The House refused to second the demand for the main question.

Mr. MAYNARD moved to recommit the bill.

Mr. RANDALL moved to lay the bill upon the table, but subsequently withdrew the motion. Mr. P. M. B. YOUNG renewed it.

The motion to lay the bill on the table was disagreed to-yeas 63, nays 170:

the bill ordered to be engrossed and read a third
time; and being so engrossed was so read.
The bill was then passed-yeas 187, nays 49,
not voting 54:
