Van Wyck and Logan Have a Bout, TO ADJOURN JULY 28TH. The Resolution Adopted in the House. —— The Senate. THE KNIGHTS OF LABOR PETITIONS. Mr. Van Wyck, in presenting another batch of Knights of Labor petitions in tavor of land bills and the Oklahoma bill today, read a letter from Joseph Beiumont, chair- man of the legislative committee of the Knights of Labor (by whom these petitions have been sent to so many Senators), stating (in response to Senator Vest’s remarks yester- day) that these petitions were genuine, and were sent to him either directly or by authority ‘of the persons purporting to have signed them, and further, that they were expressly autho ized and sanctioned by the grand. general executive board of the order in the United States, , He also read a letter from Mr. Powderly to Chief Bushyhead (of the Cherokee Indi:ins), somewhat modifying that produced yesterday, and asserted the xood faith existing In regard io these petitions, {n those which be now presented (fom Nebraska) he recognized. names With Which be was familiar. Three bundred thou- sand of these petitions, he said, had been pre- sented to Congress, and very nearly 300,000 more were on iheir way. The great railroad presidents of the couniry did not need any petitions to Influence Congress; they came themselves. One of them bad only to Knock at the door and it was thrown open to him imme- diately, “hats off!” and if he wanted time it Was very cheerfully given. He (Mr.Van Wyck) reterred briefly to each of the bills the passage of which was prayed for in qhese petitions, aud expressed himself generally in their favor. ‘he Chair (Mr. Sherman) caused to be read the rute prohibiting discussion ou the presenta- tio petitions and said done so, not by way of reproach to the Senator, but to show: thatir the rule were not observed it would be Inipossible to transact the business of the morn- ing hour, ME. LOGAN DEFENDED HIMSELF from what he considered reflections on himself in what he characterized as the “remarkable ti- rade” to which the Senate had just been treated. He had never refused to present petitions sent to him, and ali that he had done in the case of these Knights of Labor petitions was to call at- tention to the fact that the signatures ap- peared to be in the same handwriting. And how it appears trom the statement just made that he was correct in bis opinion, and yet the Senate had to listen to hali an hour's speech which might have led one to suppose that the Capitol was on fire or that a great revolution had broken out. The Senator from Nebraska seemed to take advantage ol things of that kind for the purpose of “boosting” himself by char- acterizing other Senators in @ manner which Was not very seemly. Mr, Van Wyck ‘denied having made any statement reflecting on the Senator from Lili- hols or any other Senators. Afler soine lurther remarks on the same sub- Ject by Senator Brown the petitions and several other batches of them from other states were reterred to the committee on finance. THE PAYNE CASE. ‘The Senate then, at noon, proceeded to the consideration of the report in the matter of the election of Senator Payne, and was addressed by Mr, Pugh in advocacy of the position taken by himself, Mr. Saulsbury, Mr. Vance aud Mr. Eustis, to the effect that there had been no cx- pression of a beliet or suspicion on the part of By rember. ot the commitiee to the effect that t Pies wan Ouncuraa tm sino fOlnOLesL det gree, by act or knowledge, with anything wrong, criminal or immoral in his election, and that no further investigation of the charges should be made. He criticised the views of tue minority (Messrs, Hour and Frye) and argued that they were in conflict with the precedents of the Senate in former cases of a similar char- acter. One remarkable feature in the report of the minority was that, after declaring the Sen- ate Lo be a court whieh would have to hear and pass upon the title of Mr. Payne to his seat they bad “dumped” on the Senate all. the trash and filth that cou! b scraped up from democratic newspapers and. anonymous letter writers in regurd to the means employed to secure Mr. Payne's elec- Uon. Could it be that the minority believed that such stuff would have any weight on the minds of Senators? It never could bave a Teather’s we. ion the Senate. He had merely desired to present the case briefly, and now, in the names of seven out of the nine members of te committee on privileges and elections, he moved Uhat that committee be discharged from the further consideration of the subject. Mr. Hoar addressed the Senate In support of the views of himself and Mr. Frye, recom- Mending an investigation of the charges. Such investigation, he argued, was due to Senator Payne because it could ‘only make it appear tbat the suspicion which all Senators were so eager to remove did not rest upon. him. per- sonally and ought not to rest on Iriends nearest him or upon the state that had so honored him. Pure and stainless lives were sufficient shields against every weapon of scandal or malice; but corruption and bribery should be exposed’ and puulsued. ‘The conscience and Judgment of the country should gover. wud had a right to gov- €fh, aud the Senate must respect them or cease to Be itsell respected. ‘The question. belore tue Senate was, not how # case siiould be decided, but only whetner an inquiry should be institu: ted. As tothe source of the charges, ail that the Senate required was that the charge shuuld come irom individuals or trom a body of sutli- client weight lo assure tue Senate that the charge Was not made lebtly or without reason, 1b was mol necessary Ww define exactly the quatitica- tions for such complaint; but surely, the legis- lature of the state chiefly concerned Was such a complaiuant. Surely the governor of the state Was sue @ complainant; surely ten members of the House of Representatives of the United States were entitled © muke such complaint; surely the conductors of the press of both politi- cal ‘ties of astute of tour million of people: constituted such complainants, But when (us here) these were all combined, it was impossi- bie tout there ever could be w suitor who could more rightiully bring a case to the Judgment of the Senate if tiese could not. House of Representatives. THE RESOLUTION TO ADJOURN JULY 28 AGREED To BY A LAKGE MAJORITY. Mr, Morrison (Ills.) culled up asa question of privilege, the concurrent resolution providing for fluat adjournment on the 28th instant. Mr. Reagan (Tex.), while he expressed his anxiety for a final adjounment, thought that the date fixed was too early, and that should the resolution be agreed to, the House would fail to perform a very important partof its duty, It the date were fixed as 4th of August, the House might be able to act upon the interstate commerce bill and the Northern Pacitic land fortetture bil!, Sir. Weaver (Iowa) concurred in this view,and clied the Okiahoina bill as another measure which should be acted upon before adjourn- ment, Mr. Dunn (Ark.) thought that the friends ot the river and harbor bill should not vote for a day of adjournment which would not give am- ple time ior the final e of that measure. Mr.Bayne (Pu,) sald Congress suould stay here until the legislation demanded by the country had been enacted into law. ‘Mr. Hepburn (lowa) could see no excuse for adjournment until Congress had passed upon such measures us the interstate commerce, bankraptey, polygamy and copyright bills. Mr. Willis (Ky,) thought that it would be un- wise to ugree tthe resolution, which would put itin the power of a small minority to pre- Yent any action upon important measures. ‘The ‘Senute Was not in 4 condition to adjourn, There were three appropriation bills pending in that body and the surplus resolution remained un- acted upon. In advocating this resolution which, he said, was nothing more thau information to the Sen- ‘ate that the House was ready to adjourn, Mr. ‘Morvison referred to the surplus resolution and remarked that he did not tink that it wouid be ever heurd of In the Senute. As to the measures which It was sald should be he directed attention to the fact_that if _mem- bers would only cease talking and go to work they could all be pussed previous 10 adjoura- meni Mr. Reed (Me,) said that the country was sat- istied Unat Congress had had a full ‘trial and that it could do nothing better than make an ‘attempt to find an adjournment. Abe concurrent revolution was agreed to— ‘Mr. Morrison then called up the resolution setting apart Thursday and Saturday of this week lor the consideration of the bill for the increase of the navy. Adopted—yeas, 192; nays, 47. THE RIVER AND HARBOR BILt. ‘The House then went into committee of the whole (Mr. Hatch, of Missouri, in the chair) on the Senate amendment to the river and harbor Dill, the pending question being on the motion by Mr. Hewitt, (N. Y, riking out the Clause fOr the improvement of New York har- bor. He withdrew the amendment, being as- sured, he said, that the object he desired to ccomplish would be accomplished through the medium ot the conference committee. The committee then rose and the Senate amendment having been non-concurred in the bill was sent toa conierence. THE INTER-STATE COMMERCE BILL. Then a struggle arose for priority of considers ation between the inter-state commerce and the Northern Pacific forfeiture bills, which was resolved—yeas, 142; nays, 99—In favor of the former measure. Capitol Toptes. THE ADJOURNMENT QUESTION, Very few members expect Congress to ad- Journ on the 28th,as the House agreed this morning. It is simply a notice that the House | will be ready to adjourn whenever the Senate is, At the same time it fs not believed that the Senate can possibly get through with its work by that time. NEW NAVI ‘The House this morning, by @ vote of 192 to 47, set aside to-morrow and Saturday. if neces- sary, for the consideration of the bill for the building of new naval vessel. _This makes the passage of the bill a certainty. There isa strong Sentiment in the House in favor of building vessels and guns, TO REPEAL THE TENURE-OF-OFFICE ACT. Senator Hoar, from the committee on the Judiciary, to-day reported favorably a bill to repeal sections 1767, 1768, 1769, 1770, 1771 and 1772 of the Revised statutes (the tenure- ofofiice act), The repeal is not, however, to | aifect_any officer heretofore suspended under the provisions of said sections, or any designa- tion, nomination or appointinent heretofore inade by virtue of the provisions thereof. Mr, | Hoar said he was directed by Mr. Edmunds to announee his dissent from the report, and Mr. Wilson (Iowa) also declared his dissent, HYDROPHOBIA. Mr, Swinburne (N. Y.) introduced a resolu- tion in the House yesterday directing the sur- geon general to formulate and send through the mails, as far as possible, to every physician and medicai board in the ‘United States and territories a printed circular for che purpose of obtaining from euch a statement of how many, if any, cases of hydrophobia or tetanus {lock}iw) have come under ‘thelr personal nowledge. What the symptoms, ume recovery or death were, the mode of treatment and such other particulars as he may deem of value to the public and to science, and that he be directed to submit the results of his investic gations to Congress on the opening of thesecond session of the Forty-ninth Congress, THE SUNDRY CIVIL BILL IN THE SENATE. An evening session of the Senate was beld yesterday and the sundry civil bill was taken up. An amendment striking out $165,000 for the Brooklyn post office was agreed to. Tue amendment striking out the House provision to enlarge the pension building tor the use of certain government bureaus was adopted, aiter Mr. Hale had described that building’ as a “monstrosity,” “a complete abortion and failure.” The $56,500 appropriation for the Burtholdi statue was agreed to. The item of $275,000 to purchase Gen, Butler’s house, the Secticn for the issue of one, two aud five dollar silver certificates and that for suspension of work on the Capitol terraces were pussed over. After disposing of 76 pages of the bill, out of 106, the Senate adjourned, THE PENSION OFFICE INVESTIGATION. ‘There was no meeting of the Senate commit- tee on public expenditure this morning to con- Unue the Investigation ot Gen, Black, commis- sioner of pensions. It seems to be the Judg- ment of the committee that the investigation Will bave to be practically laid over until some lime during the recess of the Senate, when the committee shall meet at some convenient place for the assembilng of witnesses and go on with an investigation from day today until com- pleted. NOMINATIONS, The President sent to the Senate yesterday the nommations of Henry P. Henderson, of Michigan, to be associute justice of the supreme court of ‘the Territory ‘of Utah; Abernethy Grover, to be register of the land office at Miles City, Mont, and also tourteen postmasters.

THE DISAGREEMENT OF THE HOUSE COMMIT. TEE ON PUBLIC BUILDINGS AND GROUNDS AS TO THE SITE. The House committee on public buildings and grounds failed again to-day to come to any agreement upon the proposition to pur- chase asite for the Washington city post of fice. There were twelve members of the com- mittee present and the discussion lasted over an hour, the committee adjourning finally to meet on Friday, when the discussion will be continued. The committee is still split be- tween the three sites—the Le Droit building | square, Judiciary sauare aud the present site, 7th street and Louisiana avenue. ‘The strong: est vote any one of the propositions received was six out of thirteen and this has been given to two sites. Some time ago the commitiee— twelve members being piesent—approved of the site between Gib and 7th streets and Louisiana avenue and C street, by a vote of ten to two. site it was supposed those who were anxious that the much needed public build- ing would be provided that tue question Was setuled. Mr. Dibble drew up bill accordingly and was authorized to report it favorably. Just how the present entangiement arose nobody seems to know. Itdoes not look as it there were much chanee for an agreement on Fri day. As regurds the Judiciary square site there are nieinvers of the cominittee who will fight that to the end, as they ure determined to protect the Witb tais pronounced vote for a by The Olcomargarine Bill. 173 PASSAGE IN THE SENATE AFTER AMEND ‘The Senate yesterday passed the oleomarga- rine bill after adopting Mr. Ingalls’ umend- ment to reduce the tax from five to two cents per pound. ‘The vote on the passage of the bill ‘was as follows: Yeas—Messrs.
