The Senate Refuses to Consider the World's Fair Bill. Mr. Platt (by request) introduced a bill for the admission of New Mexico and said that he did notin doing so intend to commit him- self in one way of the other. Referred. Mr. Payne intrdduced a bill for a monument to Commodore Perry at Put-in-Bay, Ohio, Re- ferred, On motion of Mr. Plumb the Senate voted to take up for consideration the Senate bill to for- feit certain railroad lands, Mr. Dolph moved to proceed to executive business, THE WORLD'S FAIR BILL. Mr. Hawley—I have given nutice two or three times thatI would call up the bill con- cerning the international exhibition, I am bound to press it because it is simply justice to the people of Chicago, who are waiting aux- iously to begin work, and not only justice to them, but to the manufacturers and others who may contemplate exhibiting there for- eigners as well as Americans. [ am instructed by the committee and am under constant pressure tocall itup. Ihave applied privately to the Senator from Kansas (Mr. Piumb), and I do so now, to uliow his bill to lie over until the Sen- ate can consider this exhibition bil Mr. Dolph—That bill would undoubtedly occupy all the afternoon. If there be nuani- mous consent that it will be voted at 2 o'clock Iwill yield. After further skirmishing Mr.Cullom said: * i desire to state that, so far as Lam able n, there will be no long discussion, if ‘At all, on the bill relating to the world’s fair, NOT SUCH AN EASY JOB AFTER ALL. “Yes, there will be a good deal of it,” said Mr. Blackburn, “Whether it will or not,” Mr. Cullom con- tinued, “it will certainly not take a long time, and I think that every Senator realizes that if there is to be a world’s fair held in 1892 or the necessary legislation ought to be enacted us soon as possible. I hope the Senator from Oregon will allow the Senator from Connecti- cut to bring the bill up for consideration, Mr. Dolph —The indications from the other side are that the bill would occupy the whole afternoon, I must, therefore, imsist on my motion. Mr. Plumb— The bill that ie before the Sen- ate on my motion is « very important one and should have become a law four or five or ten years ago. Action upon it should not be delayed. and still I agree that matters which for the time there are some Deing might take precedence of it, provided they did not occupy too much time. I should be glad to have the Senate consider tne bill in relation to the world’s fair; and I should also like to have the purpose of the Senator from Oregon at- tended to in executive session; but, if we are to have an indefinite executive jon, and if we are to have indefinite debate on the Chicago bill. I shall feel like insisting, and I shall insist, that we shall go on with the land grant forfeiture bill. Now, if some ad- justment can be made, by unanimous consent or otherwise. 1am willing to yield; but not in- definitely. FXECUTIVE SESSIO: The vote was taken on Mr. Dolph’s motion and it was agreed to——yeas $2, nays 25—all the negatives coming from republicans. The gaileries were then (1 o'clock) cleared and the doors closed, THE HOUSE, Mr, Enloe (Tenn.) rising to a question of personal privilege sent to the clerk's desk and had read an article from the N.Y. /’ress declar- ing that a vered in iby him, Thomas of © on war of the foisted ticle further states that Mr. Wisconsin, chairman of the commit claims, had denounced the bill as « most infamous jobs whicn had ever bee: upon Congress, Mr. Thomas said t he had not censured any member of the committee. He had stated that if the bill passed the house it wonld be in- famous, because he thought he cond prove that a number of the claims in the bill were the ¢laius of persons notably disloyal.

Mr. Thomas reiterated his statement that a number of the claims in the bill were those of disloyal persons, and that a number of them had never been examined by the committee, Mr. Butterworth of Ohio moved that the House go into committee of the whole for the consideration of the legislative «ppropziation bill, but the friends of the private calendar mustered sufticient force to deieat the motion — yeas, 112; nays, 116. 1! 0 BILL. Mr. Cannon (Ill.) submitted a disagrecing conference report upon the National Zoo bill, The report having been agreed to Mr. Cannon moved that the House insist upon its amend- ment, which requires the District of Columbia to bear half the burden of the expense of the maintenance of the park. Mr. MeComas (Ma) protested against sad- dling upon the people of the District any of the expenses of a national enterprise, especially when those people had not asked for the park. Mr. Payson (Ill) declared that the people had petitioned for it, Mr. Cannon said that if the Senate insisted on its disagreement to the House amendment, so far a8 he was concerned the zoo might go into ‘innocuous desuetude.” {Laughter. | Mr. McCreary (Ky.) believed that the House should insist upon its amendment. He was opposed to the zoo. He was tired of these Sitges to commit the government to uild parks and gardens, HISSES IN THE GALLERY, While Mr. McCreary was speaking some spectator in the gallery interrupted him with hisses, which called forth the emphatic decla- ration from the Speaker that if demonstrations in the galleries did not cease the galleries would be cleared. This declaration restored order. Mr. Candler (Mass.) believed that the Senate was right in its position. He believed in con- tinuing the management of the park in the Smithsonian Institution. The motion to insist was agreed to—118—27. No further conference was asked for, DON’T WANT ANY DEFENSES, Mr, Cannon presented a memorial of the In- diana western yearly meeting of Friends pro- testing against naval and coast defenses, Re- ferred.

The resolution was lost—6 The next question was on the point of order raised by Mr. Kerr (Iowa) that the committee war claims had no jurisdiction of the bill. his point was overruled. AR TO THE LOYALTY OF CLAIMANTS. | Mr. Thomas offered a resolution that the | Dill be reported back to the Honse with the recommendation that it be re- committed, with instructions to th committee on war claims to inquire into th loyaity of each claimant, Mr. Thomas stated that the bill contained 285 claims based on | pretended findings of the Court of Claims. Of this number there were eight cases where there had been no_ findings transmitted to Congress, In cases the usual method of ascertaining the loyalty of the parti: had not | been followed. The committee on war claims had bunched these 285 claims together without y examination or investigation. The Secretary of War had transmitted to the committee, since the report of the bili, a statement showing that in eighty-four cases the claimants had filed vouchers for sup- plies furnished to the confederate army or sub- scribed to the confederate loan, or done some other thing indicating disloyalty. Mr. Cannon (Ill.) said that if the gentle man’s statement correct the House dare not pass the bill before it was THOROUGHLY INVESTIGATED. Mr. Buchanan (N.J.) denounced the attempt to drag through eorrupt cases with the incor- rupt. Mr, Houk (Tenn.)—It is not so much the corruptness as a desire to kill the bill. Mr. Buchanan—The gentleman is absolutely mistaken so far as 1 am concerned. Mr, Houk—We know that the influence behind this movement is to kill the bill and to prevent any claim being paid.” Mr. Kerr lowa)—I made the first move- ment— Mr. Houk—I don’t say you are an in- fluence. {Laughter.} Mr. Kerr—I raised the point of or- der without any influence from any man, and when the gentleman says that thore is any influence here to kill the bill, he makes a statement without foundation. In fact. hurl it back in his teeth. [Langhter.| McCALLA COURT-MARTIAL. An Assistant Judge Advocate Appointed —The Talk Among Navy Officials. The interest with which the forthcoming trial of Commander McCalia is regarded by the naval officials here is shown by the detail of Lieut. Wm. HL. Stayton of the marine corps assistant judge advo@&te of the court. Lieut. Stayton is generally regarded as pos- sessing one of the brightest lezal | minds in th service, and — his | duties in the office of the judge advocate | general of the navy, in which he has | been stationed for some years, have | fitted him for the careful conduct of a case such as that to be tried in| New York next Tuesday. It is not an unpre- cedeuted thing for an assistant judge advocate to be ordered in a court, but it is commonty only done when the department feels that the case is an unusually important one, WHAT IS THOUGHT AT THE NAVY DEPARTMENT AS TO THE RESULT. It is generaily thought at the department that the trial will result in some suck punieh- ment for Capt. McCalia asa suspension for a certain period, such Acquittal of | the charges is regs next to impos- mble in view of the fact that they were made on the basis of the findings of a court of inquiry, & process that generally means rough sailing for the accused officer. The particularity and volume of the specifications indicate that the facts of Captain McCalla’s violation of the letter of the law will be clearly shown, and it makes it plain that the line of defense adopted will be that the crew was insubordinate and mutinons, thus rendering unusual measures necessary. ‘This will be toa large extent a matter resting with the judgment of the court, but it is thought that the chances are strongly against an exoneration on such grounds. THE BERMUDA EPISODE, It seems that the Hastings letter calling atten- tion to Capt. MeCalla’s conduct at Bermuda on Washington's birthday was not,after all,sent to the court of inquiry for investigation, and that the Seerctary has been in correspondence with its author relative to that matter, Gen.
