The question is on the po:- nt of order raised by the gentleman from Ohio to the amendment offered by the gentleman from Kansas . An examination of this bill discloses that section 30 in connection with section 82 provides in general terms for the government and regulation and the administration of the law in immigrant stations. In section 80 it is provided that eatinghouse privileges and other like privileges shall be disposed of by public competition under the direction of the Commissioner of Immigration and. the Secretary of the Treasury. These terms are general and include the entire subject of the regulation and preservation of order in these immigrant stations. Any amendment making specific restrictions and thereby limiting the general language in this section would. in the opinion of the Chair. be clearly germane. and the point of order made by the gentleman from Ohio is therefore overruled.
