The partner of Senator Glass was Representative Steagall.

But the spelling is hard to hear from the pronounciation.

Henry B. Steagall - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Asked how to say his name, he told The Literary Digest it was stee-gall (like the words tea and gall), with equal stress on each syllable. He added, "This pronunciation is generally used throughout the South, and rarely used in the North. American northerners persist in stressing the first syllable and rhyming the name with 'eagle'."[1]
