Mr. Saulsbury said he had no doubt some of thos {uages fully earned $5,000, but others did not, and © Was Opposed to so sweeping a meastire. Mr. Hoar said the committee had carefully con- sidered the Dill, and while they knew that some of the Judges were not so much occupled as others, yet It had been thought best to put all the judges on an equality. “Any one of these judges was Mable to be called upon at any time todeal with the most complicated question of law, even with Serious a question as the interference with gizant railroad corporations, and there was needed for the pean ‘the most able lawyers that could be had. e Judges of many state courts were recelying considerably more salary than the suin here pro- Mr. Maxey thought the United States judges should be well pal sae ‘The debate was continued by Messrs.

THE PRESIDENTIAL SUCCESSION BILL. ‘On motion of Mr. Eaton(Conn.), April 2d was set apart for the consideration of the presidential suc- cession bill, THR TASKER RESOLUTIONS. Mr. Curtin (Pa.), chairman of the committee on foreign affairs, reported as a privileged question the following resolutions: Resolved, That the resolutions referring to the th of Dr. Edward Lasker, adopted by thls House January 9th last, were intended as a tribute of respect to the memory of an eminent foreign states- Man who had died within the United states, and an expression of sympathy with the German peopie for whom he had been an honorable represeuta- ve, Jisolved, That the House, having no official con- cern with the relations between the executive and legislative branches of the German government, does not deem It requisite to tts dignity. to criticise the manner of the reception of the resolutions, or the circumstances which prevented thelr reaching thelr destination after they had been communk- cated through the proper channels to. the German government, Mr. Curtlh immediately demanded the previous question. Mr. Reagan (Texas) hoped that the previous question would’ not be omdered. The House had tnade apologies enough for having been insulted. Mr. Cox (XN. ¥.) moved to lay the whole matter on the table. “That was the way to treat the Ger- man chancellor. ‘The motion was lost—83 to 125. ‘MR. OCHILTRER HAS THE FLOOR, The previous question having been. ordered, Mr. Ochiltree (Texas) rose to debate the resolutions. He yielded to no gentleman in his esteem for, and confidence in, the distinguished members of the foreign affairs committee, and ordinarily he was disposed to rely on their judgment. But this affair had gone beyond the domain of red tape and cir- cumiocution. Tt had assumed a phase which called on each and every representative to look to it that his individual honor and dignity were preserved, ‘and in doing so to defend the digaity of the people. It was not ing the dignity of this to enter Into explanations of the meaning of the original resolutions. ‘They spoke for themselves, and the apologetic tone of the pending resolutions Was unworthy of the representatives of this great nation. ‘ Mr. Ochiltree then went on to deliver a eulogy on the high abilities and noble character of Dr. Lasker, and said compliment to Lasker was a rebuke to the German chancellor, because they were the antithesis of each other. ‘The present incident of itself showed of what base metal the latter was moulded. He had ever been a flatterer and syco- phant to royalty who had never upheld the rights of the people and never lost an opportunity to de- nounce popular sovereignty. ir, Ochiltree then, atnid Some laughter, read an from a letter written by Mr. er some fore his death, in which he refers to Mr. Ochiltree as having titroduced him to the Prest- dent, members of the Cabinet, and foreign minis: rs. Mr. Belford (Col) inquired (trontcally) whether it ‘Would be in order for a member tooffer a resolution presenting the apologies of the House to the Ger- man chancellor for having troubled him. ‘The Speaker replied that it was not. When Mr. Ochiltree’s time bad expired he was still reading, and a motion was made to allow Im to proceed. Objection was made by Mr. Lay- ton, of Garfield's district, Ohio, and Mr. Ochiltree turned quickly about and demanded in aloud and angry tone: “Who objects?” ‘This called forth loud cries and laughter. Mr. Deuster spoke in support of the committee report, as did Mr. Phelps. G ‘THE RESOLUTIONS PASSED. ‘The resolutions reported by the committee on foreign affairs were adopted without division. ‘The District in Congress, ‘MR, BENNETT'S BILL 70 PREVENT MISCEGENATION. ‘Mr, Bennett made an argument before the House District committee yesterday afternoon in support of his bul to prevent the inter-marriage of whites and colored people in the District of Columbia. He argued in favor of the constitutionality of the Pil saying that twenty-four of the states now forbi such, ‘some in their constitutions, as North Carolina dnd Tennessee, others by statute. In reply to the objection that the law would dis criminate t the negro race, Mr. Bennett cited the fact that the republicans had taken suff away from the District because they ought colored people were abusing their franchise, and that no colored child 1s now allowed to enter a White school here. He cited at length ‘Tooqueville on “Le Consequencesde la Democracte tincy yeuts ago much that has alreaay boosted ‘years ago mi a iy happen oon disstiuilar ras ter, La ext 5 in connection with the presence of two Yaceson the same continent.

HR THINKS THE GOVERNMENT COULD HAVE RECOV- ERED ALL THE MONEY BY THK CIVIL SUIT IP A COMPROMISE HAD NOT BEEN MADE. Ex-District Attorney H. H. Wells appeared before | the Springer committee to-day to tell what he knew ‘bout the Otunan case. He sald he assumed the duties of district attorney shortly after the Otuman Tobbery occurred, and tried the case twice, the Jury disagrecing each time. He told the story of the robbery as It has been told so ofcen before, and. detailed the progress of the trials. He explained how the government had expected to prove the money found deposited in the bank at Alexandria | by Ottman to be a portion of that stolen from the ‘Treasury, by a certain coincidence of numbers which could not have existed after the money had | been once distributed and put in circulation. He then produced the papers in the case, explaining to the committee the vartous drafts and checks paid to “Peg-leg” Browne upon the order of Ott- man, showing that all the money handied was in $500 bills, corresponding to those stolen. A COMPROMISE PROPOSITION KESECTED. He sald that before the trial began a proposition ‘Was made to him (Mr, Wells) by Mr. Elliott, one of Ottman’s counsel, to compromise the matter by allowing the government to retain the money in its possession if Ottman Would reeetve but_a nomi- nal imprisoument. ‘This, Mr, Wells sald, was made to him in the lobby at the city hall, and ne sald he Thought such a colnproinise Would not be accepted, though 1 inlght If Ottinan would consent w tue ordiiary Imprisonment ina penitentiary; but the defense retused to do this, He communicated the erto the Departinent of Justice, and It was re- ted. Witness sald the strongest argument made y the defense and the one that had the greatest effect upon the Jury was tit Halleck Was the Uulef and falsely Sought In his confession to threw The responsibility on Otiman to screen himself. MR. WELLS THINKS THE GOVERNMENT COULD HAVE KECOVERED THE MONEY BY CIVIL SUIT. “Do you think,” asked Mr. Springer, “that In the civil sult the government could Mave Tecovered the "replied the witness. “I have no doubt that ail the money located could have been recov ered by the governme Mr. Springer then read from Mr. Bllss’ report the statement, with relation to the compromise, that Mr. Wells had told him that he felt sure that &con- tion could not be secured by the government, and asked witness if the statement was true, The witness replied that he had told Mr. Bliss nvictiou Could be secured. n the criminal trial, DUL had nots spoken of the vil cases. He sald’ that 1 Same time that he knew of his own personal know!- edge that Ottman was guilty, but could not use this knowledge In the prosecution, «is to doso Would be a breach of professional confidence. WITNESS’ INTERVIEW WITH BLISS. ‘Witness did not know anything on the subject of the compromise. ‘The conversation he had detatled ‘Was about Uwo years ago; 1t was in April or May» 182. Bliss did not say who had pi a com. promise, but said one had been proposed. - Witnes Kad only one interview with Ils. "Witness deiitied the difference between the Tule In clvil and criin!- hal cases. Witness regarded the case at Alexandria as much the strongest, because there was no Jury, and itought not to have taken a Judge halt a day. to make up his opinion. Witness _relterated, the opinion that a conviction could have. been se cured here. He believed he told Mr. Bliss He told Bliss all he Knew about the ease. Wituess told Bilss the ease ought not to de compromised, and. he told Bliss that every dollar could be recov. ered by the government in civil sults. The law 1s that If one comes unlawfully in Possession of another's money, he can de made to pay it over, even though he may have got it innocently. Witness did not deem Halleck’s testimony as necessary. On the other hand he was not sure the case was not weak- ened by It. Ottman did not testify in his own be- halt. “The witness described his conversation with it. | With her stall told Mr. Bliss at the | TWO CENT A recent acqut show at Masont {awn-colored brute, who occ weet Brier,” a lady of the satu Superior tn pont Major's” appearance is Langely due to its wr face, which gives thy rt nant scowl The short yshowsar teeth am rly malls t 01 2 ix He hes hat all Sof a Dichis-bred dh of the class Tor fancy purposes Was fashionable they retreating nose fasten their t ‘Ue same tine bre THE BLOODHOUND Next to the bull dogs. tu point of r are the bloodhounds, of which there are tine specynens.

Witness replied that he would recommend a dismissal on the surrender of the $52,000, provided that Ottman should go to the pen- itentiary. This proposition of Elliott was submitted to the Attorney General, and rejected, though wit- ness refused it because the penitenthiry provision Was refused. Witness advised Bliss of this propo- sition, Bliss told witness he was adjusting the Ott man case entirely 8 a friendly act to the Attorney General, and without fee or pay. He said the attor- hey General was overburdened, and he (Bliss) was helping him out as a friend. Bliss sald the Attorney. General first called his attention to the case, Witness again declared that, Bliss was wrong in Tecommending compromise because Halleck was absent, a8 he said the case against Otuman was stronger without Halleck’s testimony than with It. Witness did not think the assignment of the money in Alexandria to others for counsel fees ought to have baffled the prosecution of justice. Bliss never: got from witness the conclusion that the govern Thent ought to compromise on the money offered because witness firmly belleved that all the money could be recovered. ‘The committee adjourned until to-morrow at 10 a m., When Col. Bliss will be examined, ‘The Tariff Question. WHAT MR.

It was susceptible of changes whic might make It acceptable to at least good major ity. This view, however, does not appear to be held by many otliers in the House.
