Hoar explained that the work involved no e: nse.

Mr. Frye reported favorably from the com- mittee on commerce a bill to provide for the encouragement of American shipping and to Promote postal and commercial relations with reign countries. Mr. Frye explained, briefly, that the bill appropriated $1,100,000 for carrying the U.S. mails in American vessels to and from foreign countries; makes it the duty of the Postmaster General to advertise for proposals, to accept the lowest bids, and to enter Into contracts for the carrying of these mails.

Reterred. MR. VOORHEES ON THE EDMUNDS RESOLUTIONS. On request of Mr. Edmunds the army bill was, by unanimous consent, made the unfin- ished business of the morning hour to-morrow and the Edmunds resolutions were placed betore the Senate, and Mr. Voorhees took the floor In opposition to the majority report. After stating the question at issue Mr. Voor- hees asked why the majority resolutions con- tented themselves with an attack on the agent (the Attorney General) and shrank from a di- rect blow at the principal (the President.) Did the Senator from Vermont expect a cabinet offi- cer to disobey the President? ‘The resolutions were meant for popular effect. They contem- Plated no measure of legislation to remove any evil or pretended evil. They were merely a fulmination of senatorial opinions, barren of result, other than acheap partisan denunciar ion. Mr. Voorhees spoke at great length, and was followed by Mr. Evarts, © House of Representatives. NO ARISTOCRACY IN THIS COUNTRY. In his opening prayer this morning the chap- Jain besought the Lord to enable the educated and intelligent men and women of the land to comprehend that in this republican country there could be no privileged class, and in this democratic age no aristocracy could be founded and built on the fable of blood, Norman, Guelph or Ghibelline, on titles to gold or lands or stocks; on power of public office or private corporation, but that our best society must be the growth of sound brains informed by wide instruction; on good hearts and loving, fer- yently bending With reverence towards God, and love to man, and with supreme devotion to noble uses, sweet and generous bebavior; ljearned not from the dancing master nor in courts of princes, but In the school of self-re- llance, wills braced to heroic endeavor and en- durance, capable of rifice of self for the common weal, the wants and the woes of others. He prayed that God might forbid the rich and properous from attempting to import and reproduce on our new soil the pomp and shows, the folly and fashions, the luxury and pres of other climes, lest the giant anarchy, lind through ignorance and rage, like sight less Samson, goaded to madness by oppression, should put forth his hairy strength and cele- brate his self-murder in the ruin of his oppres- sors, tll chaos should come again.

Also, that very poor service is given between Dupont Circle and the Boundary; that cars should be ran at Jeastevery ten minutes from the circle to the Boundary.

The Commissioners E: the Million Dollar Loan Project. THEY GIVE FIGURES TO SHOW THAT THE DIS. TRICT CAN SOON REPAY ITS SHARE OF THE PENDITURES—SURPLUSSES DEPOSITED IN THE TREASURY—THE PROPOSED DISTRICT BUILD- ING, ‘The District Commissioners have addressed a letter to Mr. Barbour, chairman of the House District committee, in which they say: “There are two measures that the Commissioners be- lieve to be of exceptional importance to the District of Columbia, and which they earnestly commend tothe favorable consideration of your committee and ot Congress: One providing for a municipal building for the District of Colum- bla (@ bill for which has been already intro- duced in the House and referred to your com- mittee); the other providing for continuing street and sewer improvements (for which pur pose abill is now prepared.) The necessity for th has been frequently set forth by the Com- missioners in. thelr reports, and Is so ereat and well known by Congress as well as by the citi- zens of the District generally, that you will rhaps not care so much to hear arguinents in half of the propriety of those measures a learn how it is that the Commissioners expect that the District will be able to fulfil its obil- gations as specified in those bills. ‘Yon will recall that in the act approved June 30, 1884, appropriating $500,000 for sewer im- provements, that it was provided that one-half ofthe expense should be charged tothe PD trict and that the District should be credited with one-half of any money saved out of the District appr riations, and for sums deposited in the United States Treasury by the District in excess of such appropriations. That bill re- quired the District to refund ‘its half of the money within five years from the date, June ‘80th 1884, and be charged interest at four per cent per ‘annum upon any balance due the United States until final payment. Witha view to the payment of the sum chargable to the Dis- trict under that bill and to achieve the large and costly improvements so imperatively de- manded such as now proposed, the Commis- sioners have for several years estimated the an- nualexpenses of the District upon a basis of strictest economy, and at the saine time have developed the financial resources of the District as far as possible under the limitations ot law. The result is that notonly is the sewer debt aid, but the District has a surplas accumu. lated besides in the Treasury to apply at once to the improvements proposed by tbe two bills aforesaid should they be approved by Congress, The following is « summary, as shown by the records of this office, of the respective annual deficits of the District, as well as the excesses of deposit in the United States Treasury by the District over its portion ot expenditures since June, 1878, when the present financla: rela- tions between the federal government and Dis. trict were established. In tbls statemeut Uv District is credited with one-half of the draw- | back certificates which ve been received for | neral taxes under the two acts of Congress of | une 27, 1879, and July 5, 1584, as provided by section 2 of the District appropri t approved February 5, 1885: For 1879, 1880, and 1882 there were the following deficits re Spectively: $45,641. 9 and $17,- 802.64 regating $i or the years | , 1884 and 1885 there were de- posited in excess of expenditures respectively | the following sums: $55 $170,919.66, | $120,830.64 and $116,696 aggregating | $463,997.55. From this aggregate of credits | deduct the deficiences aforesaid and one-half of the sewer appropriation, $250,000, and_ there is left a surplus in the Treasury’ to the credit of the District June 30, 15: of $128,071.91, which on the 30th June, 1886, will, in the judg- ment of the Commissioners, be increased ‘to at | least $250,000. So tar as 'the Commissioners | can now foresee this annual excess is more | likely to be increased than diminished in the near future upon the supposition that the | annual appropriations ure to remain about the | same as are estimated for the next year. If, however, there should by any possibility be a | falling off rather than an increase of the Dis- trict revenues, the deficiency can be made good by lessening the annual appropriation for stzect | purposes—indeed, the aunual estimates will, | necessarily, be made with reference to this | liability, So that upon the foregoing state- ment it appears not only reasonable, but quite certain that the District will promptly respond to its obligatior and pay the $700,000 re- quired of it by said bills, An imporiant ad- vant gaitied by a large appropriation in addition to the enjoyment of the needed im- provements is that of letting larger contracts, which invites competition throughout tbe entire country, so that the Commissioners are enabled not only to secure a better class of con- tractors and better work, but also to get the | work done at a cieaper rate than under the usual annual but smallér lettings. Such was their experience under the $500,000 sewer bill, | and such, doubtless, will be the result under | the proposed million bill, if passed. With this idea the Commissioners have indicated in the bill $2 per square yard as the price ‘to be paid | for concrete pavements, the ruling price here- | tofore having been $2.: but it is to be ob-| served that as asphalt-concrete pavements are controlled by an absolute monopoly there may | be a failure to get bids for that class of pave- ments within the limitations of the bill as to time. The question of election will then arise whether to adopt some other kind of concrete pavement, or apply to Congress for authority to pay a price greaier than that now indicated, | The Commissioners, therefore, most earnestly urge that the projected improvements, being supported by every consideration of propriety economy and public weltare, having been re: commended to the tavorable consideration of Congress by the President, in bis last annual message, are entitled to early and serious atten- ton, and the Commissioners trust that Congress will approve the measures.” elena eel tess TARIFF NEGOTIATIONS. | Randall's Conferences with the Ways and Means Committee.
