Among the petitions and memorials presented ‘nd referred were several from the Woman's Christian ,Temperance Union of various states Asking for the abolition of internal-revenue taxes on all alcoholic liquors; one from New York asking the appointment of a commission to examine into the charges alleged against the Roman Catholic Priesthood on account of the practice of auricular confession. (Referred to the committee on educa~ Uon and labor.) One against the construction of the Nicaragua Ship Canal, and the usual number for pronibition in the District ot Columbla, BILIS REPORTED. Among the bills reported {rom committees and Placed on the calendar were the following: For the relief of Mr. Robertson and Mr. Hedden, late col- Jectors of the port of New York. For the rellet of Women enrolled as army nursea, To restore pen- ‘sions in certain cases, For relief of importers of animals for breeding purposes in certain cases, Mr, Frye offered a resolution, which was instructing the committee on commeree to inquire nto the rigut and expediency of Co assum- ng control of the erection of bridges over naviga- ‘ble waters within state limits, MR. PLATT ON THE PRESIDENT’S MESSAGR. ‘The Senate then, at 12:45, resumed considera- tion of the resolution to refer the President's mes- sage, and Mr, Platt resumed the speech which he commenced yesterday. He had shown yesterday, he said, Unat the President's message meant the absolute and final destruction of tbe protective system; hat {t meant practical and absolute free trade, dnd that {t could result in nothing else than Weentiredowufaliot the protective system of the country. He could not but assume that the demo- cratic party intended to- follow tne recommenda- ons of its commander-tn-chiet. ‘There had been, Indeod, some straws that looked as if there mizh De some question about that; as if there Would be an attempt at some comprouitse; as if there would de a studied effort on the part of the democratic Party to do nothing at this session in the line ot Une President's recommendations, and then to go ‘once more to the country on the’ Presiderit’s tree trade message as its platform, !uthe could not assume that the democratic party and the demo- cratic leaders in Congress realiy intended that course of action. He admitted the necessity of some reduction of income, but he was NOT TO BE FRIGHTENED into an abandonment of the protective system by the President's “raw head and bloody bones” fig- ures, AS to the surplys in the Treasury he denied that there was any necessity for such an accumu- lation, ‘The questton of a reduction of taxation had very little to do with relieving the Treasury of what the President called 1t3 coudi- Uon.”” ‘The great talk about the surpius could be for no other purpose (it appeared to him) than to hold out.an inducement to break down the protec- Uve system, Why had the accumulation in the ‘Treasury been permitted? Why had taxation not been reduced? Why had not the democratic party in power in the House of Representatives (where revenue bills had to originate) not sent to the Senate some bill looking to the reduction of ation’ THAT PARTY STOOD PLEDGRD by its platform and by the professions of its leaders on every stump, to take steps, immedi- ately on its accession to power, for the reduction of the surplus, ‘The Senate had waited now nearly ‘three years for some bill for a reduction of taxa- Uon tocome from the House, and had wondered ’| Why its coming was so long delayed. Eight long Weeks had passed since Congress had been told of the daugerous conuluion of the Treasury, and no Dill had yet been reported in the House looking to 4 reduction of the surplus. ‘This was not a repub- Hcan administration, It'was a democratic adinin- istration; and if money had been allowed to accu- mulate 1d the Treasury and no effort made for its reduction, THE FAULT WAS THAT OF THE PARTY IN POWER. What reason could be given for that delay in the past, What reason could be given for that delay to-day, if it were not that the accumulation in the e Was being used, and deliberately used, to foree Congress into a destruction of the protec: tive system of the country. ‘The President to-day sent the following nomina- tions to the Senate: * Interior—James K.Wright, ot Satnt Louls, Mich., to be register of the lahd office at Grayling (for- merly Reed City), Mich, War—The following-named non-commissioned officer Stat for appertinent in the Army of the United §, With the rank of second Meutenant: Cor- poral Wm.
