The text discusses a heated debate over the rate bill, with Bailey and others doubting constitutionality but some senators shifting to support passing the measure. It notes fear of court decisions striking it down and the White House conference aiming to secure Republican backing, while Aldrich’s side shifts toward supporting passage rather than strict court review.

Arise Wages of Matrons and Streetcar Sprinkling Provisions
The House debated a District Bill for five hours over 65 pages. The sole change was raising House of Detention matrons’ salaries from 3600 to 3600 to match others. A provision to make streetcar firms sprinkle tracks was cut on a point of order. The Anacostia bridge funding and extra district court messengers also sparked clashes. The bill will be reconsidered.
