District Judas of the Northern District of Iiil- nols, grosa misconduct and corruption as an officer. I hava also here a netition sfgned last Friday and Saturday by1,800 citizensof Chica- &o asking 1hat a special committee e appolnt- cd toinvestigato this mmatter. I have slson digpateh recelsed Tast night from ong of the firet eltizens of Chicnco, stating that on yester- day 8,800 more slznatures were attached to the same petition, making nearly 6,000 subscribers. ‘With this explanation, I present the resolution whicl: I send to the Clerk, aud ask for its pas- nge.” ‘I'né Bpeaker—Tho resolution will be read. The Clerk read as follows: TAR RESOLUTION. WneEneas, It ix charged that Henry Y. Blodgett, District Judge of tho Sorthern District of Hitnaix, ‘has been-guiity of aroes minconduct and corruption 11 bis official eanduct as wuch Juage; therofore, Rterolred, That & special committee of five mem- bore of this Jfouse be appointed o examing ench chm‘ec. and to Inquire into the official condnct of wnid Judge Henry Blodgeit, and to report what “lélo'l" if any, this Ionse shonld take In the premises, That snld Committes shnll have the power to aend for rencn- and papers, appoint & clerk and er, and such other employes as it may y. and on {ta dlscretion to viait and #it in the City of Chicayo, for the purpose of ex- amining witricnses and court records, snd that it lisve power to report at any time. MR. GARPIELD ONJECTS. Mr. Garfteld—T hope that this resolution will bo referred to the Committee on Judiclary. Mt, Harrison—I nsk that tho petition accom- ‘panying the resolutlon be read. Mr. Garfield—[ object to the sdoption of the resolutionn. Let it be referred to the Judiciary Committee, and let them report it if they think proper, Tho Speaker—The gentleman from Illinots, In his nlace, and as & question of privilege, submita tha resolution. Mr. Garfield—wWell, I raise the question as to 118 being & question of privilege. Tho 8peaker—That tho uentleman has the en- tire right to do. Mr. Garfleld—The provision glving the richt to report at nny time, as well s several other parts of the resolition, cannot be adopted ex- cept by unanlimous consent, or under o suspen- slon of the rul I know nothing about tbe matter. Ionly say that so grave a proposition ought to go to our Law Comtttee. . Mr. HNarrison—1 hope the gentleman will withdraw his objectlon, 2 Mr. Garfleld—T will not. Mr. Harrlson—A Judgo occupying a high official position in the past, honored in my district, {8 charged with misconduct s auch Judge. In the petitfon which I present a largs number of iy constituents pray thet a com- mittes bo appoluted, so that his otliclal conduct may bu examined and reported on at ence. Wo owe this to the Judge himself, who wants an Investigation and desires that the investization proceed at once. There may be some who would say send tho question to the Commitlee on Judiclary, but, sir, the gentlemen of that Committes are already cmployed—three on another committee, three on an investigation in the City of New York. The Judiclary Com- mittee has a larze business Lefora it. Be- sldes, thls 18 such an examinatlon tuat men should be appointed spo- cislly to look fnto the matter, so that this gontleman's character, - il maligned, may be vrotaptly vindicated and tho country fuformed that he deserves to stand well before nls countrymen. 1f, on tho other biand, the charges aro not false, then my con- stitucnts Lavo tho right to let tho country know the grounds o which these charges are made. This question Is onc of the highest privilege, ono which, in the fnterest of tho Judire himself, my own personal friend, 1 say should bo passed upon as quickly as possible. If the gentlemau from Oblo (Mr. Garfleld) objects to tho right to report at any time, I will strike out that portion of the resolution; but let him take the couse- quence of endeavoring to stifle the report be- fora this House. 1 belicve that, aa » guestion of privilege, this mattor ought to be reported upon at the eorliest time when o concluslon may be reached. Iask that the question be put to the House aud decided by it ot once, I ylold for a moment to my colleague, Mr, Burchard. . 3. DUROARD ODINCTA. Nr. Burchard—Mr, Speaker, | do not obfect to the resolution {ntroduced by wy colleague, bat to the appointment of o spcclal committee, and I movo to amend the resolution so as to provide that instead of appointing & epecial committee of five, this matter be Investigated by the Judiclary Committee. Mr. Harrison—If the gentleman please, I da1d not ylold for any amendment. I ylelded forhia remarks, but not for the offering of au amendment. Mr. Burchard—Very well; aithough my col- league does not yield for an amendment, this mattor will hava to be submitted to the House. ‘The Speaker—The subject is befors the House, and before It as a question of privilege. That Leing the position of the resolution, it s ceriaivly ooen to amendment, Mr, Harrlsou—=When I yleld the floor for an amendment, hut not Lefore. Mr. Hale—I supposo that tho previous gues- tlon, If called, can be voted down, and then the resolution can be referred to the Committee on tho Judiclary. My, Burchanl—If my colleague ylelds for re- marks enly, I witl conflne myself to that. Mr. harrison—I only ylelded to my colleagua for remarks, not for autendment. AMr. Burchard—TI desire to say this inatter was broughit up at the closiug hours of tho scssion of this louse just preceding the hollday recass, It wus rumored there were gentlemen who were whispering charues against a Judee who stood 80 high (o the eatimation of the Jegal fraternity of Chicago and of the Northern District of Nl nols, as well 88 In the estimation of all the members of the State of Illinels, that not one of those membors was ready to Indores n peti- tion and put it in the petition-box for reference to the Committee on the Judlclsry.

How- evel T, * A BUB-COMMITTEN COULD DX OHOSKN from the remaining members of tho Cotnmit- tee, wno probably would not be so much en- gaged fo other work that they could not attond to it. Thoss members are Knott, Harrls, Culberson, Frye, Conger, and Lapham. These are allstrong men, and are formidable antago- nits for any body to ancounter. A sub-commit- teo chosen from among thoso gentlemen would bea fair and impartfal urv. Proctor Knott, Chairman of the Committve, said to-night that nothine, of course, could be determined asto the action of the Commities unt!l a general meeting was called, That prob- ably will he Frxiay of this weck. It was evi- dent from the procecdings in the Ilouse that tho favestigation would bardly have been order- ed at tne original {nstance of Judge Blodgett, At all eveuts, hia friends were not disposed to take thio initiative, and 1t was not until Harrison Liad forinally prescoted the case that Blodgott's {rlends made thelr prescuce known, THE PETITION of Cooper, Sheldon, and Knickerbocker, con- trary to general expectation, did not coutaln s apecific Indictment of Judgoe Blodgett, or sate fn dotall the dullnite chorees which 1t was ex- pected to prove. In thisrespect the potition differs - somewhat from ths oune which was telegraphed from . Chicago to o 8t. Louls vaper, snd which undoubtedly was brought hero before the holldays. The petition flled to-day s simply in the nature of @ geuersl declaration, setting forth that the scts of Judge Blodgett bhave brought reproach and scandsl on the ad- ministration of justico; that bo' has been gullty of gross favoritistn towards bis friends, and judiclal oppression against bls eneinfes; that hio has been umnindfo) of thoe law in his judg- ineuts; hus heard ex-parte atatcments out of court, by which he has becoms prejudiced ageint opposing partics in court; that his jude- ments bave been contrary to fact and the evi- dénce befors him and to the law applicable thercto; that his rullugs in causcs where rall- Tuud corporations bave been paortics bave been grosaly and unjustly in fuvor of the rall- roads; snd thas the oftice has been so adminls- tered as to impede and obstruct the administra. tion of justice.
