Speech #460087135

I am very sorry not to agree on the instant with any amendment suggested by my colleague. But if I .am right in regard to the point I have attempted to make. his amendments do not touch it. The Secretary of the Treasury has business -enough without looking after the four thousand immigrants arriving in New York daily. They must be taken care of by other authority with more time and care than the Secretary of the Treasury can spare for such a purpose. Moreover. this business has become so vast in fact. as the gentleman himself has proved here tonight to the astonishment of us all. and it is so vast in prospect. that Iappeal to every member of the House of Representatives not to act hastily in regard to the matter.
