WASHINGTON, D. 0., June 29.—
0wing to the absence of a quorum the
members of the House of Represen-
tatives committee on election discus-
sed the Hill-Donovan election contest
at \its re ular hosting yesterday
but did no take a vote. Although
the matter was discussed about an
hour by the members present nothing
was brought out to indicate just what
action the. committee will take. It
seems quite certain however. that the
committee will not vote to seat Jere-
miah Donovan even if it should do—
clare Congressman Ebenezer Hill’s
seat vacant. '
The next regular. meeting of’ this
committee would be next Tuesday.
but as that is the Fourth of July and
many members will be absent at their
homes.3tha meeting will be put on use.
til Thursday July 8. when an alert
