Gordon, 2d dis- trict of New Jersey; John W. L, Stratton, 3d dis- trict of New Jersey. AT THE Ware Hovse.—The officers and repre- sentatives of the Supreme Lodge I. O. M. called on the President to-day. They are twenty in number add were received in the library. The bedy was headed by Mr. W. C. Bailey, of Balti- more, supreme ruler and first presiding officer of the lodge. Senator Baldwin and Representa- lve Frye also called on the President to-day. CONGRESSIONAL EXcv! —The House com- mittee on Indian affairs have accepted an in- vitation from the Secretary of the Navy to ac- company an excursion to Fort Monroe, Norfolk and Hampton. SECRETARY THOMPSON left this afternoon for Norfolk. He goes to inspect the ships now there getting ready for sea. Ie was accompanied by thirty or forty members of Congress and others, ‘The party will return next Monday morning. THE Misstssivrt REPUBLICAN CONVENTION.— Senator Bruce has not received anything further in regard to the action of the Mississippi republican convention. He thinks the estimate of six Grant, six Sherman and four Blaine dele- gatesis correct, as the action of the convention ‘is the result of a compromise. PERSONAL.—Mr. John Brisben Walker, the well-known journalist, is now editing the Col- rado Tiiter-Ovran, a bright weekly jour olities and society, just started at Denvi sugene Hale has’ gone wes rs, Nellie Grant Sartoris ts visiting Par *resident Seelye, of Amherst college, declines te goto the Chicago conventior Wuat Mr. Jonn Cox Says.—Hon, John Cox, who formerly represented the fifth New York district in Congress, arrived in the city last evening. Ina conversation in this city to-day he said he thought that Tilden would get the democratic nomination if he wanted it. There was no doubt about that, he said. “Could Til- den carry New York?” he was asked. “He eculd against Grant or Blainé ‘iden would carry the state by 30,000 majority. THE HARBOR OF WasHINGTON.—The river and harbor appropriation bill contains an ftem or $40,000 for the improvement of the Washington channel of the Potomac river. A Covrr OF INQUIRY ON THE MCKEE BRECK ENRIDGE CASE.—It has been decided to convene court of inquiry to examine Into the charges and counter charges of Major McKee, command- ing at the arsenal here, and Capt. Breckenrid; the septor artillery officer on duty there, detail for the court has been made 5 et. THE CABINET MEETING To-pAy.—Nothing of importance transpired at the Cabinet meeting to-day. The threatened invasion of the Ute Indian reservation and the Dakota governor- ship were the only subjects discussed. Secre- tarles Ramsey and Schurz informed the Cabinet that there had been nothing new received by them relating to the invasion, and they consid- ered the reports in regard thereto greatly exag- gerated. It was decided, however, to notify all government employés in the vicinity of the Ute reservation to on the look out for any at- tempted invasion, and to report the same forth- with. With regard to the Dakota governorship but little was said, and no appointment was agreed upon. THE TARIFF Bit.—No House committees were in session this morning, owing to the early hour (10:30) at which the House convened. Tne ways and means committee will meet to-mor- row morning to take final action upon the tariff bill: wood pulp, printing paper, manufacturers ot paver and agricultural implements are the only remaining articles to be passed upon, none of which, it is thought, will provoke much dis- cussion, save wood pulp, upon which the bill proposes to lay a duty of 10 percent ad valorem, A sung effort will doubtless be made to have it placed upon the free list. If the committee sneceed in disposing of the bill to-morrow, and the general impression if that they will do so, the sugar question will be at. once taken up as a Separate and distinet measure. THE APrPROPRIATION BiL1s.—The sub-com- mittee of the appropriations committee have completed the legislative bill and will report it to the full committee on Monday. It appro- priates $16,211,286 and is considered quite iiberal, though considerably under the esti- mates. It is thought the Commissioners will agree upon the bill and report it to the House Ou Tuesday. This leaves but two appropria- lion bills to be perfected, the sundry civil and the general deficiency, both of which are well in hand and may be in shape to report to the House within the next ten days. THE ADJOURNMENT Sivcation.—The evident determination of both political parties to have Congress adjourn at the close of this present month, seems to grow in favor, and there B a possibility that a final adjournment may be reached af the time indicated. Of course if this program is carried out, all business except the appropriation bills will go by the board. ‘There is now hardly probability that the funding bill can be passed. It may be that the House will get_a little tariff bill through, but there is no chance that it will pass the Senate. There remains yet to be disposed of by the House three appropriation bills, these are the legislative, executive and judicial; the sundry civil and the general deficiency bill The postal bill passed the House morning. The legislative bil vill be reported on Monday. ‘The river and har- bor bill has already been reported, and the ef- fort 1s to be made on some Monday to pass it, under a suspension of the rules. Speaker Ran- dal! still holds to the opinion that Congress can adjourn by the Ist of June, and the temper of the members now Is to doit. if it can be done. NavVAL ORDERS.—Captain Raiph Chandler has reported his return home from the command ot the Lackawanna, and has been placed on wait- ing orders. Lieutenant W. P. Cowles and En- signs A. L. Case and ©.

MOVEMENTS OF TKOOPS TO PROTECT THE Ure Lanps.—The War department has ordered the transfer of the 6th infantry from the de- partment of Dakota to the department of sMis- sourl. ‘The 6th infantry will take station at the White River (Ute) agency, relieving the seven companies of the 7th infant 7simmons, Lewis, one FORTY-SIXTH CONGRESS, Frimay, May 7. i SENATE.—The President pro tempore laid before the Senate the credentials of Hon. Jas. Garfield, a Senator from the state of Ohio, for the term of six years, ‘inning March 4, 1881, and placed on the files of the Senate. Mr. Morgan moved that when the Senate ad- jeurn to-day it be to meet on Monday next. eae: was considerable opposition to the motion. Mr. Morgan Stated that his motion was made at the instance of the committee on counting the electoral vote, who desired to meet to-mor- row. ‘The motion was to. Bills were introduced and referred as follows: By Mr. Davis (W. Va.), by request—To procure and publish certain information relative to the demand and price of American agricultural and other products in foreign countries. By Mr. aes omeay Outen eer cannon and ap- mrtenances to Lowell Post, No. 7, G. A. R., of oston. Mr. Voorhees submitted a resolution instruct ing the committee on public lands to inquire Into the expediency, propriet and public pol- iey of declaring all lands heretofore granted in aid of the construction of raflroads, and which have not been earned by compliance with the terms of the grants, open to public entry and settlement the same as other government lands, and said committee shall have the right to report by bill or otherwise. Printed and laid on the table. Mr. Hoar stated that he had intended to call up this morning the resolution submitted by him yesterday directing the committee on the judiciary to report a bill to reimburse out of the (Geneva award all those who lost ships by dep- redations of confederate cruisers during the re- bellion, but he would not oppose the considera- tion of the conference report on the Indian ap- propriation bill, which was thereupon taken up on motion of Mr. Beck. ‘Mr. Edmunds opposed the adoption of the re- port. The House having failed to convince the Senate that the Indian commission ought to be abolished, it was proposed, tn order to secure the passage of the appropriation bill at all, to withhold the money necessary to pay the ey penses of the commission. This was pract nullification. This was not a political question, and he urged the Senate to refrain from con: senting to the introduction of such a practice in conferences between the houses. Mr. Beck said the conference committee had thought it best to remove this ground of differ- ence and secure the pas much asthe sundry civil and other appropria- Uon bills would soon follow, in which the ap propriation for the commission could be made if thought best. Mr. Morgan combatted Mr. Edmunds’ view of the law. ‘The commissioners were not, ta his Wnion, officers of the United States under the tutes, and to decline to pay them was. fuse money to carry on any part of the gov- ernment. They were simbly advisers. Mr. Edmunds again held that so long as alaw was on the statuté books, money enought to en- force it must be voted. Otherwise, tke bk would be practically repealed without the Pres- ident being given a voice in their repeal. 1¢ this were not revolution: in the light of the constitution, he did not know what could be. Mr. Morgan asked ff the President could not dismiss the members of the board without ask- ing the consent of Congress. ‘Mr. Edmudds thought Mr. Morgan said that then the President could abrogate a law, but for Congress to do It was revolutionary, according to the Senator from Vermont. Mr. Edmunds sald that certainly any branch of the government could violate its duty. There Was nO way generally to compel them to ob- serve their duties. But it was to be hoped that neither the President nor Co $3 would see fit to do wrong simply because either had the ower. ak Morgan thought it more revolutionary to say alaw must exist untll the President chose to suspend it, than to say that Congress could abrogate it at any time. Mr. Edmunds said it would probably be use- less to continue the discussion. He had tried to fully explain his views, and would conteni himself with voting against the report. Mr. Ingalls was dissatistled with the report, bui not because no money was voted for the board. Judging from the past, the expenses of the board would be gladly paid by ee and corruptonists interested in Indian supplies. He related the facts in one case. The Kansas Man- ufacturing Company had submitted bids for the furnishing of wagons. Their bid was 32,000 lower than any other, But the board held se- cret sessions, invited ex parte testimony against the quality of the company’s product, and ga' the contract to a company in a state of which one of the board was a member. The Kans:s company’s Wagons were of the highest quality. ‘They had been a by he Indian depart- ry iment heretofore, and were pe tensively used throughout the wes' others, “Their rejection was, in so far, a stigma upon their quality, and was used by tival con panies to the detriment of the Kansas compan: ‘There was thus both private and public inju: tice, In view of this and otaer cases, he reltet ated that favored corporations would no dow be glad to see that the expenses of the board were paid. Mr. Windom said it was every whet there was loosen d waste in the Indian de- partment. Super and he saw no reason for dismissing supervisors. He would therefore vote against the report, hoping that another conference would secure a priation for the support of the board. Mr. Allison, one of the conferees, explained his reason for signing the report The House Would not have consented to the passage of the bill as amended by the Senate. The fnsertion of a smail prohibition was thought neces to facilitate the passage of this laportant appro- priation bill. In fact. the prohibition amounted to nothing. Without a specific appropriation the expenses of the board could not have been ald that paid. My. Dawes would vote for the report, not be- cause it was satisfactory to him, but because every conterence involved concessions on one or . both sides. He thought the Senator from Kan- sas (Mr. Ingalls) was Charging the board with corruption on very slender grounds—mere! that a certain company falled to get a contr: ‘The commissioners might have had reasons their action which would satisfy just men. ‘There was, at least, no evidence before the + ate to the contrary After some further discussion, the conference report was agreed to, without a division. r. Hoar announced that he would call up is Geneva award resolution on-Tuesday. Mr, Teller presented the views of the minor- ity of the Wallace committee on the subject Ppolitieal assessments. Printed and laid on the table. ‘The morning hour having expired, the Senate resumed consideration of the Kellogg-Spofford resolutions. Mr. Pryor supported the resolutions, proceed- ing to make a legal argument to the effect th the pleas of res adjudicata and estoppel were not righttully relied on by the opponents of the resolutions. HOUSE.—The House met at 1 a& m. to- day, and proceeded to the consideration of the Post Ofice appropriation bil. Mr. Cannon opposed the amendment adopted by the committee of whole yesterday, authoriz- ing the Postmaster General to remit’ in favor of the colonies of New Zealand and New South Wales so much of the cost of the over- land transportation of Australian closed mails ashe may deem just. Thisamendment would enable the Postmaster General to exercise a discretion 1n letting the mails-for England pass through the United States without any charge against the government of Great Britain. The House then proceeded to vote upon the amendments, The first amendment, on which a separate Vote was demanded, was that authorizing the Postmaster General to use $350,000 of the $9,400,000 appropriated for railway mail service, to obtain and secure trom railways necessary and special facilities for the postal service. The amendment was adopted—yeas, 110; nays, 66, The next amendment was that known as the “money” amendment, which {s as follows: All Star routes suall be relet after thirty days ad- Yerlisement, as now provided by law, on the ist of October, 1880, on which the pay for expedl- tion of schedules ordered during the fiscal years of 1879 and 18S0 shall exceed fifty per cent of the contract price before such expedition, provided that this proviso shall not prevail ‘when the present contractor desires to continue the con- wed. Adopted—11S to 57. This amendment now takes the place of the proviso originally reported by the appropriation committee to the star service clause of the ‘The other amendments were then agreed to, but before the vote could be taken on the bili the legislative session of Thursday closed, and at 12 o'clock the session of Friday commenced. ‘THE POST OFFICE APPROPRIATION BILL PASSED.

The results of the several state conventions held yesterday are the subject of a good deal of comment among the politicians. The Blaine men generally feel elated over the same, and olaim that their favorite has forged considera. bly ahead. There is no doubt but that the New Hampshire delegation, headed by Wm. E. Chandler, willstand by Maine’s + last and all the time. Biaine’s friends now claim that he wil! have over forty of New England's elghty id votes. At the Cincinnati conven- tion of isi6 he did not have half that number. ‘The friends of Mr. Blaine claim, too, that they will have Maryland and Delaware solid, and that when the tug of war comes in the conven- tion they will have nearly all the Wisconsin delegation. The democrats seemed to be a little mixed touching the action of Ohio’s democracy. While it 1s true that Senator Thurman was endorsed and Ohio's delegation was requested to vote tor him and as a unit, ft Is likewise true that the tour delegates at large are not what can be classed loyal Thurman men, first, last and ail the time. Wade, one of the delegates at large, is a Payne map. Gen. Steedman, of Toledo, has a weakness for Tilden; McSweeny is claimed as a Jewett man, and Durbin Ward is an old bourbon, Who tbinks the $0 called fraud of 1s76 should be righted. ‘The Hamilton county dele- ee elected Tilden delegates headed by Judge Joadley. The Ohio situation is summed up about thus: That while Senator Thurman can have the Ohio delegation solid so long as there is a chance to nominate hira; that if ft becomes ap- nt that there is no probability of Thur- success, the bulk of the delegation will go to Tilden—all of it in fact, 1f the unit rule is followed out. It Is certain that the delega’ large elected are not the list of delegates Sen: tor Thurman would fave preferred to have been sent to Cincinnati. The probability Is that they were elected by a combination between the Tilden and Payne men. The Grant men claim™ half of the Maryland delegation, and tso in Wisconsin, It is evident though that the gains made by Blaine have alarmed them. They had exp: ‘Tennessee delegation solid, and feel thatitis broken. They had also expected more “ substantial” support in Mississippi. Notwith- standing these losses they still aifect a contl- dence which is refreshing to the Grant follow- ers, as it Is exasperating to the other candi- dates, They say Grant will be nominated on the first ballot, and that Is all there is about it. It is noticeable though that with all their exul- tant confidence they are a little feverish about Illinois, and admit that it is the key of the situ- ation; but that the Iilinols delegation will be olid for Grant. e Sherman men feel even more contident than eyer, They reason that Grant cannot be nominated on the first ballot, and that then the combination will be made to defeat Blali net result of which will be that Secretary man Will be the beneficiary. On the other hand, there are dispassionate observers who say that the very possibility of Blaine’s nomination makes Ge: i. Grant's nomination a certainty. Society Notes, And yet another happy wedding must be chronicled. No one has seemed to enjoy these festivities more than the fathers of the brides who have each been present at the three wed- dings on successive evenings.
