I rise to a question of privilege. House bill No. 6596. to regulate immigration. was referred to the Committee on Commerce. considered by that committee. and amended. The gentleman from New York. a member of the cornmittee. was authorized to report the amended bill as a substitute for the original bill. In his absence the amended bill was brought to sme purporting to be the substitute bill with the report of Mr. RiCHAiDSON. with the request that in his absence I should report the bill to the House. Acting on that suggestion. and after conference with some members of the committee I reported the bill to the House. and it was passed under a suspension of the rules.
