The President laid before the Senate to-day a letter from Mr. Edmunds declining to serve as a Tregent of the Smithsonian Institution, and ap- Pointed Mr. Morrili instead. Mr. Grover presented thé, credentials of Mr. Dolph, his successor, as a Semator from Oregon. Mr. Pendleton presented & mremorial of the Cot- ton Exchange of Cincinnati, asking he continu- ance of appropriations for the signal service cot- ton-belt observations, A BILL TO PUNISH FALSE PERSONATION OF OFFICERS PASSED. Mr. Garland, from the committee on the judici- ary, reported a bill to punish the false personation of officers and employes of the United States by a fine of not more than $1,000, or,imprisonment not longer than three years, or in the discretion of tne court. The bill was passed. OLBRICAL ERROKS IN THE TARIFF BIL. On motion of Mr. Bayard, a resolution was adopted requesting the House of Representatives to return the tariff bill, in order that certain cleri- cal errors in it might be corrected. ‘The President laid before the Senate a commu- nication from the Secretary of the Treasury in re- lation to direct tax sales in southern states. ADULTERATED TEAG. Mr. Miller (WN. Y.), from the committee on com- merce, reported favorably the House bill to pre- vent the importation of adulterated or spurious teas, Passed. Mr. Sherman offered a resolution providing for the consideration first of House pension bilis in their order, and second of other House bills re- ported favorably from Senate committees, Objec- Aon was made, and the resolution went over until to-morrow. ‘On motion of Mr, Hale, a resolution was adopted directing the Secretary of the Interlor to furnish a complete list of persons employed now or since July 1st, 1882, by the United States geological Survey, With a statement of the compensation Paid to each. LABOR AND CAPITAL. On motion of Mr. Blair, the committee on educa- tion and labor was authorized to continue its in- quiry into the relations between labor and capital, etc., and print the testimony. Mr. Jones (Florida) called up the resolution of- fered by him in December last requesting the Pres- ident to inform the Senate, If not incompatible with the public interests, whether, in his opinion, the last clause of the treaty of 1819 with Spain has eon STaDy, executed according to ite true mean- Ing, &c. On motion of Mr. Edmunds, the resolution was referred to the committee on foreign relations. Mr. Van Wyck called up hig resolution request- ing the President to communicate any information in his possession touching the alleged Joint agree. Ment of the ministers of Great Britain, France and Italy at Lima to make a joint effort to bring out peace between Chill and Peru, and to inform the Senate whether the minister'of the United States has been instructed to accept the mediation of the ministers of European powers in settling a fparey American question. At the conclusion of ir, Van Wyck’s remarks the resolution was adopted, THE YELLOWSTONE PARK. Mr. Vest called up his resolution for the appoint- ment of committee of five Senators to examine Into the condition of the ¥ellowstcne National Park. —1n the course of his remarks on the subject he had read a letter received by him from the Sec- Tetary of the Interior, sayiug: "J have determined hot to take any action in the matter of the lease to Messrs. Hatch & Compnny until Congress shall take action on your bill—at least not until the close of the session. If Congress shall take no action on the subject, I shall feel inclined to exe- cute a lease in strict accordance with the views expressed by your committee tn the report made to the Senate.” : At the request of Mr. Gorman the lst of the al- rectors of tue Yellowstone National Park Improve- Inent Colapany was read. Among the directors are Messrs. Rufus Hatch, Roscoe Conkling, Hugh J. Hastings, Wm. Fullerton, John R. Brady, A. J. Vanderpocl, Frederick E. Churgh, and Sghn N. Ab- bot, all of New York, ‘Mr. Vest sald that although mo lease had been executed, thls company had, a8 le was informed, gone into the park, cut down timber, becun the erection of a hotel, and contracted for 20,000 Ibs. of moose meat to feed their hands. It was evident, therefore, that unless prompt action were taken on the subject the park would. become practically private property, and the public objects for which It Was created would be entirely defeated. The morning hour expired while Mr. Vest was Speaking, and he proposed that the unfinished business should be set aside in order to dispose of ae resolution, Which he sald would take but little ume. ‘Mr. Windom said the resolution would probably take more time than tie Senator from Missourl Supposed. There were two sldeg. to this question, and he proposed to demonstrate that the Secretary of the Intertor had acted wisely in undertaking to make the lease; that that was.the better way of preserving the’ park, and that the parties now Making improvements there were acting in ac- cordance with their contract with the Secretary of the Interior. THE FOURTH OF JULY CLATMS. Mr. Cameron insisted upon proeeeding with the unfinished business, the bill to pay the “ fourth of July claims,” and it was taken up. The bill was passed. [The claims of A. E. L. Keese for $48, and of Alfred Ray and John W. Ray, administrators of Enos Ray, deccased, tor $859.79 are included. These claimants reside in this city.) House of Representatives. CONFERENCE COMMITTEE ON THE DISTRICT APPRO- PRIATION BILTs Op motion of Mr. Ketcham, Senate amendments to the District of Columbia appropriation bill Were non-concurred in, and Messrs. Ketcham, Hiscock and Forney appointed eonterees. CONFERENCE ON THE LEGISLATIVE APPROPRIATION BILL. The same action was taken tn regard to the legislative appropriation en Messrs. Canngn, O'Neill and Atkins appointed conferees, THE P. 0. APPROPRIATION BILL. Mr. Caswell submitted the conference report on the post office appropriation bil. Mr. Caswell ex- Pinined that the conference committee had re- ‘alned in the bill the appropriation of $185,(00 for clal mail facilities, had struck out the clause limiting the compensation to be paid for mall transportation to subsidized roads, and had fixed October Ist, 1893, as the date when tie two-cent tage shall go into effect. These were the only Inportant items of aisagreement lessrs. Holman (Ind.,) Anderson (Kansas) and Robeson (N. J.) protested against the House yteld- ing to the Senate on the questfon of compensation to substdlved’ratlroads. Mr. Cannon (IIL) defended the action of the con- ference committee. The House conferees had ylelded to the Senate in the matter of special mall facilities becaus9 they belleved that this was the last_year when an appropriation for that purpose would havé to be made. The Senate conferees were firm in thetr purpose to have the clause rela- tive to the payment to subsidized railroads struck out. They uld not in any event yield their views, and under the ordinary rules of legislation the house which incorporated general legislation On an appropriation bill must yleld rather than allow the bill to fail Individually he regarded the action in striking out the clause as wise. At this point a message was received from tho Senate, informing the House that certain clerical errors exist ini the en copy of the Senate amendments to the internal revenue Dill, and re- questing Its return to that body. bs 1™ ejaculated Mr. Anderson. The request of the Senate was then complied With, and the bill returned to that body. Tho House then resumed the consideration of the conference report on the post office appropria- mn Dill. Mr. Reagan criticized the conference committee for yielding every important item of disagree- ment. Mr. Andefson said ‘that the ettitude in which the Senate was putting itself was this: It was taking the position that it would defeat the Post Office bill rather than that the light of a little bit of God almighty justice should flash down on these railroad companies. The, exact issue pre- sented Was whether the House at the beck of the Senate would recede inorder that, &t some future when fn the mysterious mi of God, here should be, an opportaniey to amend the Thurman act, tifat act should beamended. He hoped that the conference ‘would be voted down, and that the Senate would be tn- formed that they had to back down or would get no Post Office appropriation bill. Mr. Holman contended that it was the duty which the House owed to the country to insist on its disagreement to the Senate amendments; Mr. Duno the Tepores ‘Mr. Robeson spoke ee tg adoption; Mr. Cannon e conference cominittee, and Mr. Hiscock advo- cated the adoption of the report and called atten- tion to the fact that ‘there were but six days of ress and an al nce Of Wo! ‘ne motion to a, to report was yeas 114, nays 183, bey ‘ A FARTHER CONPERENCE was ordered,and Messrs, Caswell Cannon and Ellis were reappointed as but Mr. Can- non asked tobe, and was, excuged from further service. TRE DEFICIENCY ‘Mr, Hiscock (N. Y.), chairmem of the committee riation reported the deficiency appro- Shiation bul Printed ata reso tena THE “POUND RULE” then went into operation. t a fo "oo pending il wa that calla wp by : sh mittee on agriculture, to create an agricultural commission. There being more than five objec- tons the bill was not considered. Capitol Notes, There was no quorum, and hence no meeting of the House committee on ‘the District to<day. The moat meeting of the session will be held on Thurs- ay next. The committee on public buildings and grounds Of the House will not take action on the Senat> Dill to enlarge the White House. It is understood thot the President 1s not in favor of the changes contemplated in the bill. ‘The civil Tights cases, of which there are several nding in the United States Supreme Court, will among the first decided after the court re- assembles for the spring session. Mr. Gorman submitted a resolution in the Senate | to-day to print 2,400 additional copies of Health OMicer Townshend’s report. Referred to commit- ‘Wee on printing. FLORAL TRIBUTES FROM THE PRINTERS. Senator Voorhees to-day recelved an enormous Pyramid of choice flowers from the Columbia Typographical Union, With the thanks of the Printers for his dofense of them in the Senate de- ate Saturday. Senator Conger also received a floral tribute trom the printers, accompanied by their thanks for having defended their Interests; and the Senate committee on appropriations re- cetved an elegant basket of flowers from the ladies in the Land office for having stricken out of the legislative bill the provision extending the hours Of work in the departments, Many of the union printers were at the Senate to-day, and tn person thanked those Senators who tock their part in the Senate debate. THR DEFICIENCY BILL. In the general deficiency appropriation bt!1, which will be completed by the House committee on appropriations to-day, there are the following, items: For pay of civil service commissioners and clerks, $5,811; traveling and other expenses of commission, $12,000; Court of Clatms,. $140.00; Jeannette rescue and expenses of cufrt of inquiry, $12,500; stationery for Interior department,$13,000; photographing in Patent office, $31,000. ‘The ag- gregate of the bill is about $250,000. OF this not more than $500,000 are on account of deficien- cles for the fiscal year 1883-4. The claus» printed in the bill as. prepared, recommending the anpro- Priation of $1,783,000 for the payment of defictency n account of the Philadelphia centennial, has been struck out by the committee. ‘A PROPOSED NEW RULE. The House committee on rules reported, Satur- day afternoon, a new rule, which was laid over for future action, that during the remainder of the session It shall be In order at any time to move to suspend the rules, which motion shall be decided by @ majority vote, to take from the Speaker's table House Dill 5588, to reduce internal revenue taxation, and to declare a disagreement with the Senate amendments to the same, and to ask for a committee of conference thereon, to be composed of five members on the part of the House. If such motion shall fail, the bill shall remain on the Speaker's table, unaffected by the decision of the louse on said motion. THE CASE OF THOMAS J. MAJOR. The House, on Saturday, adopted a resolution to send the evidence against Thomas J, Major to the United States district attorney for the District of Colnmbia, the Attorney General and the governor of Nebraska. Major claimed to have been elected to Congress at large from Nebraska. ‘The juiictary committee rted “that Thomas J. Major ts re- sponsible for the misinformation which induced this committee to make the report of the 1st of April, 1882, (No, 911, first session, Forty-seventh Congress) ‘ind that he was aided ‘therein by 8.

It represents Robert Fulton seated in a square backed and armed chair contemplating a model of the “Clermont” steamer, which he holds in his hands. The figure is surrounded by the imple- ments of an inventive mechanic, such asa vise, hammers, chisels, etc. The statue attracted much attention from Congressmen and visitors at the Capitel, and was criticised in the main favorably. The sculptor, Mr. Howard Roberts, of Philadel- phla, Was present and superintended the unpack- ing and setting of the figure. He explained that the design was something quite new in sculpture, and was a departure from the classic “Roman- toga” method of treating sculptured subjects. ‘Tae FouLowine CLeRicaL Caanges have been made in the War department: Adjutant General's Office.—Jessie B.

RERDELL FURTHER CROSS-EXAMINED. HIS CONVERSATIONS WITH DORSEY AND OTHERS. When the star route trial was resumoa this morning Rerdell again toox the stand for further cros3-examination by Mr. Ingersoll. The witness, before the cross-examination proceeded, turned to the court with the record of Friday's proceedings in his hand and asked If, in the cross-eXamination, the counsel hasa right to put words in the wit ss’ mouth? “I can show,” sald the. witness, here It was done, or attempted to be done, tw Or three Umes in the cross-x:aninatton Frid: Judge Wyle sald this was an abst: and the court was not bound to answer It. The Witness then turned to the rec n pointed out two questions asked by Mr. agersoll Incorrectly repeating the Wituess’ testin him, though Mr. Ingersoll st ited at ihe t he repeated tt as he had understood it. to know,” said the witness, “if the eros=-ex ton was a fair one, 1 am'willing to (ell. th facts. If It comes to some of the iuinute details my memory may fail me.” Judge Wylie Said that the record showed that the witne: had made ample explanation at the Ume, and he thought there was nothing tuat ne could compiain of. Mr. Ingersoll then proceeded. The witness was asked if he had haa A CONVERSATION WITH R. B. CARPENTER at his (the witness’) office, in January, 1882. The Witness satd he had met Mr. Carpenter there once or twice, but did not remember the tina, Mr. Ingersoll asked the witness if he had not thea told Mr. Carpenter that no such books ex- isted showing payments to“ Wm. Smith” as had been represented, Mr. Merrick objected to thisquestion until tt was shown what relations there existed between the | witness aud Carpenter. Tne Witness sald he understood that Carpenter and other counsel for Dorsey at the last trial were his counsel also; that he had conferred with Car, penter dally, and at the close assisted him in mak- ing up @ statement of the case. When Corpenter came to nis office it was the first time witness ever met him. Garpenter brought a letter from Dorsey directing the witness to vive him a statement of facts for use In the preparation of this very case. ‘There had been no inilictment then, but steps were being taken to prosecute Dorsey, ahd Une Witness naturally expected to foliow Dorsey. ‘MR. INGERSOLL ARGUED that even {f the relation of counsel did exist the communications between them were not to be used in convicting the witness, which would be mant- festly improper. He, however, denied that Mr. Carpenter was his counsel. He argued that it Would be unjust after this witness had been asso- Clated with the other defendants and then gone Over to the government to permit this witness now by a word to stop the mouth of counsel of other defendants. He observed that the counsel on the other side were exceedingiy nervous lest some communication would come out. ‘MU. MERRICK'S SHARP REPLY. Mr. Merrick, in arguing against admitting the testimony, sai ‘Iam not nervous. I have no books to hide; I have no facts to keep dark, and 1 have no statements I'seek to conceal. Iseek for the truth. As a member of the profession I humbly protest against an invasion of that secrecy py Which the dignity of tue profession cun be pre- served.” MR, CARPENTER WISHES TO MAKE A STATEMENT. Judge Carpenter, rising, observed that It was due to himself, as an officer of the court, w maki a statement of the facts in this connection. Mr. Merrick sald a statement of facts should be Made from the witness stand. “I want to make this statement simply to the court, sir,” sald Mr. Carnen! “This,” suid Judge Wylie, such a statement.” Then the court,” sald Mr. C. me the right, after being assiult the other side and ace! ally, to state the facts,” **rhey have said nothing of tie kind,” sald Judge Wylie. Mr. Ingersoll declared that Mr. Carpenter never Was counsel for Rerdell. DORSEY'S LETTER TO RERDELL. ‘The witness sald Dorsey’s letter to him intro duced Carpenter to him as_his (Dorsey’s) counsel, and witness considered him as his counsel too, THE TESTIMONY ADMITTED Judge Wylie sald that as this conversation pre- ceded the Indictment, and it was a mere inference of the witness’ that Carpenter was his counsel, he would admit the testimony. The witness then sald, as scraps of the alleged conversation were heres by Mr. Ingersoll, that he very possibly made the statements. These al- leged statements were to the cffect that he had made his June affidavit voluntarily; that no books implicating Dorsey and Brady existed; that when he met James on the train be carried a shirt, Tfapped up in a paper, and represented to James that that was one of the books; that the memo- Tanda he showed to James and MacVeagh were written by hims-If and not by 8. W. Dorsey, &c. “I may have done $0,” sald the witness in’ reply to Mr. ingersoll’s inquiries as to whether he had made these statements. “I was trying to sustain the affidavit.” A CONVERSATION WITH BRADY'S CHIEF CLERK. Mr. “Ingersoll then repeated in the same manner, in sections, @ conversation purporting to have been held with J. L. French, chief clerk of Brady's office, in June, 1881. The witness said that he thought he had made tese statements to Mr. French. They were to the effect that he had fooled James and MacVeazh that no such books existed; that all his communications to James and MacVeagh were nade In pursuance of a plot of his own; that after MacVeagh sent him a note witness told Dorsey and Dorsey stopped him from going further; that the next day Dorsey and Bosler held a consultation and agreed to have the witness go forward with his plot. The witness sald that 1t was possible he told Bosler, alter he had made the June ufiidavit, that he had been “putting up a job” on James and Mc- Neaga for the purpose of trappli ing him some reward for his testimony. The wit ness.did not remember having told Bosler that after he (witness) told MacVeagh that he could get the books from New York, MacVeach gotup and said, “Mr. Rerdel; you are a patriot.” The witness Said When he went to see MacVeagh he did not have any memoranda in Dorsey's hand- writing with hin. Be left them at his own office. He did not remember la ving taken from the waste basket several pieces of paper, telling Mr. Boster that that was the pencil meniorandum he had; that he (Witness) had written them himself, and that he had called Bosler’s attention to the 'skili With Which he had imitated Dorsey’s handwriting. It was very likely hat he had (ld Bosler tat there was no such buoks a3 represented In exist- ence,and When h: met James tu the trata 1 occur- Ted to him to pass off a sbirthe had wrapped up in a piece of paper as one of the books. g A CONVERSATION WITH ME. JERE. WILSON. Witness, when asked about a conversation with Mr. Jere. Wilson on the steps of the Corcoran building inJune or July, 1881, said that he did not remember apy particular conversation, ashe met and talked with Mr. Wilson very frequently. It was very likely he told Mr. Wilson about the affidavit, and that he bad been playing the roil of detective. ‘Witness sald that when he brought the book from New York he placed it ina Valisein the woodshed at his house. When he weat away from town to Nebraska, he left the valise at the house iu care of Mrs, E.C. Cushing, who gave It to wit- ness upon bis return to the city. After- wards the witneg took it to his office in the Corcoran building, -and kept it in his desk until the 18th of July last, when he turned It over to Dorsey. That was last he ever saw Of it. Witness had the copies of the books up to the day the affidavit of June, 1881, was made. witness, correcting himself, suid that he believed that he had carried the copies to New York in the summer of 1830, when and Bosler had thetr last settlement, at which the wit- ness yas present. NO LAUGHING MATTER. As Mr. Ingersoll was laughing while the witness ‘Was speaking, the witness said: “You need not laugh at me; 1 am trying to tell the truth.” “You will find Unis no laughing matter,” said Mr. ‘Merrick. 2 ‘BACK TO THE DORSEY INTERVIEWS _ ‘The witness wus then cross-examined turther as to his conversation with & W. Dorsey at the time he made his affidavit of June, 1881. He did not re- member what Le said about the books to . ‘The declaration “As a matterof fact no suci books existed,” written in the affidavit, was writ- ten by 8. W. Dorsey.

Tanda without producing the memoranda, A CONVERSATION WITH GILBERT, Tho witness sald he knew a man named he did not Know whether his name was BP. bert or not.
