The May 3, 1913 After-Loan Case caused chaos in Congress
On this day, 112 years ago, May 3, 1913 (March 27, 1913 in the lunar calendar), the aftermath loan case caused chaos in Congress. On May 3, 1913, Congress discussed the Big Loan. On the 5th, Acting Prime Minister Duan Qirui attended the meeting to answer questions. Under the questioning of members, Duan was speechless. He said: "The government has failed to comply with the procedures for this loan case, and I beg you to forgive it for its own difficulties." Gu Zhongxiu filed a motion: "There is no objection to borrowing, but the government illegally signed a contract to borrow, and the court will never admit it. Speaker Tang Hualong put Gu's motion to the vote and passed Gu's motion with a majority of 229 people in favor. On the 7th, Deputy Speaker Chen Guoxiang presided over the House of Representatives meeting. Progressive Party members used the pretext that the motion on the 5th was impeached by the government and needed to be passed through the third reading. Kuomintang members opposed it. The two sides had a dispute and were at a stalemate. Kuomintang members asked the Speaker to consult the government on the 5th vote. The Speaker used the excuse of the message to report to the House, but the House was not staffed with enough people to report. Gu Zhongxiu took the stage and scolded the "National Speaker of the Nation". Some members of the parliament pulled down ink boxes from the seats and threw them at Chen Guoxiang. The meeting was in chaos, almost fighting, and the meeting broke up in a hustle. On the 8th, the Yuan government sent a message to the two houses, demanding recognition of the large loan. The message said: "In view of the financial difficulties, international creditor's rights are even more pressing. Borrowing money cannot be completed for a day, and the country's foundation is uncertain. There is no way to cancel the signing of this contract." Progressive Party members used not to attend meetings to deal with the Kuomintang, making it impossible for the parliament to have a quorum. After-care borrowing case stalled in Congress.
