Congressional Proceedings Today Have an Argent Hue, HOUSE DEMOCRATS PROTEST. They "Charge That a Gag Rule is Being Enforced. WORDS AS HOT AS THE WEATHER, — SENATE, Among the bills reported from committees and placed on the calendar was the House bill to establish a National Military Park at the battlefield of Chickamauga. OPPOSED TO FREE COINAGE. The silver bill was taken up and Mr. Hiscock addressed the Senate in opposition to the free coinage of silver. He believed that a majority ot the people were opposed to opening the mints of the United States to the free coinage of the world’s silver, In his judgment the national conventions of both political parties would, by decisive majorities, repudiate such & proposition, AN UNEASY GHosT, Mr. Sherman said that he had not intended to address the Senate until there was a practi- cal measure before it; because the bill re- ported from the finance committee was only 4n uneasy ghost, wandering without father, without compass, without guide, with no one to call for a vote upon itand no one to demand 4 solution to the difficult question. But as he was compelled to be absent from the Senate chamber on other important busi- ness, he availed himself of the present oppor- tunity of saying what he had to say now rather than at some future time. He then proceeded to read a written speech on the subject. HOUSE, Mr. McKinley (Ohio), from the committee on rules, reported a resolution providing that the France. but will not go to Rome, at least for | the Normandie.—-A, BB, Capon ot Chicago and” «W.-H. oH Porter of | Philadelphia are at the Langham.— Cameron of Virginia and Viseount C, de ia | House shall proceed immediately to the con- sideration of House bill 5381 (the silver bill), and that the consideration shall continue until Saturday at 3 p.m., when the previous question shall be considered as ordered. The previous question having been ordered on the resolution, forty minutes’ debate was al- lowed. MR. BLOUNT'S OBJECTION. Mr. Blount (Ga.) had no objection to the time limited for debate, but he was informed that the chairman of the committee of comage, weights and measures would be allowed to of- fer all the amendments which were admissible under the rules of the House. When these were offered there would be left no opportunity to the minority to offer any amendment, There would be given no oppor- tunity on the part of the minority to ask the House to vote on the free comage of silver. At the republican caucus last uight there had been much discussion and it was necessary to whip in the friends of free silver by meaus of this resolution. It was a wicked, shameful outrage on the minority. There were many men on the other side of the chamber who would vote for free silver but for fear of the President. The President was in accord with the Secretary of the Treasury and both were in accord with Wall street. In the presence of the President and the enemies of free coinage the republicans who favored free silver were driven to trampling down the rules of the House. It was a humiliat- ing sight to an American citizen. If the majority and the President yielded to the money power the masses of the people would hereafter dictate and enforce legislation in their interests. ME. BLAND CALLS IT GAG RULE, Mr. Bland (Mo. ) said that there was no doubt but that a large majority of the House was in favor of the unlimited coinage of silver. In order to prevent that fact from appearing on the record it was proposed to gag every demo- crat in the House and many of the republicans, Every gentleman who voted for this resolu- tion Voted against free silver. The man who had not manhood and independence enough to stand up against this gag rule was an unfit Representative. MR. CANNON EXPLAINS. Mr. Cannon (Ill.) said that the resolution was simply @ proposition that, under the rules of the House, the House should proceed at once to considera bill of great interest to the country, The minority could offer every amendment to the bill that th could under the general rules. The minority, which = was now —_ clamoring for free coin: had held the House in the Forty- ninth and FiftiethCongresses, but had passed no bill for free coinage. They could not now tvol the country or even fool themsclyes. MR. SPRINGER'S PROTEST, Mr. Springer (IIL) said that a democratic House had passed a free coinage bill; that the Senate had limted it. and that the House had been obliged to accept that limitation. It had been vetoed by Hayes and passed over his veto. He wanted to call the attention of the country to the fact that the situation was this, that no amendment was to be offered to the bill ex- cept such as might be suggested by the chair- man of the committee, He denounced the ac- tion as one intended to prevent the representa- tives of the people from carrying out tne will of the people. Mr. Williams (IIL) said that the resolution was intended to prevent a majority from legis- lating. He appealed to members on the other side who favored free comage to stand by the interests of their people. MH, M'KINLEY'S REMARKS, Mr. McKinley said that the resolution was intended to give the House of Representatives an opportunity to pass some silver legislation and give the country a silver bill which would be in perfect response to the gencral sentiment of the country. It was to give the House an opportunity to pass a dill which would take all the silver bullion of the United States and utilize it for monetary pur- poses, It was to give to the people not $2,000,000 a month but $4,500,000. Ir gentle- | merf on the other side wanted to vote on free | silver they could move to recommit, with | instructions to the committee to report back [a free-coinage clause. Gentlemen on the other side could uot have been very anx- ious for free coinage when for four years they preven brought in a bill from their fall about throttling the will of the majority by the minority. Why, one man | at the White House had silenced the majority | in the Forty-ninth and Fiftieth Congresses. THE RESOLUTION ADOPTED. The resolution making the silver bill a spe- cial order was adopted—yeas 120, nays 117. The republicans who voted in the negative were Mexsra, Anderson (Kan,), Burtine, Con- nell, DeHaven, Featherstone. Fuuston, Kelly, Morrow, Hermann and Townsend (Col).

MR, BLOUNT WANTS A RECONSIDERATION, Mr. Blount voted in the affirmative and moved a reconsideration, The motion to reconsider was tabled—yeas 124, nays 118. — 08 .

TWO CENTs. TO REMAIN ALL SUMMER. Congressmen Expect a Long Session and a Fight on the Federal Election Law, It is very generally believed on both sides in the House that the session of Congress last until the latter part of August at least, and Probably well into September. ‘The republi- | cans are prepared now for a pretty long session, and while they are anxious to get away as soon as possible, on account of the approaching cam- paign. if they have to stay until September they expect to put in some of that time in an attempt to make a federal election law, NOT YET IN LINE. They have not as yet succeeded in getting | together on this question of a federal election law, and on account of a wide difference of Opinion it was not brought up in caucus y: day afternoon. A caucus to deal with this question especially is expected to be called shortly. ‘The southern republicans of the House held a conference last night, at which Mr. McComas presided, and had a very full discussion of this qui stion. They were ‘practically unanimous in favor- ing the passage of a federal elect:on law, though they were not confident that they should succeed, and the Lodge bill was gen erally preferred. THE PROBAPILITIER Tf the rest of the business of Congress can be got into such shape as to make a tolerably early adjournment possible the federal election question would probably not be allowed to pro- | long the session; but, with the prospect of a long session anyhow, they will. at least, make the attempt to pass the Lodge bi! In view of the prospect of a long session the | President is prepared to remain ia Washington all summer, SENATORS WA How Statesmen Made Efforts to Keep Cool Today. Huge palm leaf fans were scattered all over the Senate tod: Each Senator was prov: with a specimen and most of them at on to work to find out how they were used, Senator Plumb fanned so vigorously that he started a new flow of perspiration and at last concluded that there were many cooler occupations than trying to freeze himself with | Senator | yard of started bamboo. to @ square Stockbridge in fan him- self ax soon as the chaplain concluded his | prayer and he, and he alone, stayed with the air disturber for more than two hours, bh could fan himseif for a week without becom- | ing tired, He was not as graceful of move ment 4s Senator Jones of Nevada, but he had more endurance than any other Senator present toda: Senator Mitchell controlled his desire to fan himself for more than an hour, but he suc- cubed at last and started enough perspiration to spoil all the handkerchiefs he had im his clothes. Incidentally he bit the edge off the windy end of the palm. Senator Barbour ate a good deal of his fan. He ate more than he fanned. Senator Carlisle's heated features we con- tent with a few jerkily-started es of atmosphere; then the fan was laid down, Sen- ator McPherson enjoyed intervals of about half an hour's rest between his streaks of fanning; be wagged the palm leaf at the rate of about 120 wags per minute. His average of continuous effort was about seventy-five wags. enator Evarts had a very pleasant motion; very esthetic, but with little wind in it. The venerable New Yorker does not get much satisfaction out of a fan when he operates it himself. Senator Hearst started bis whiskers in mo- tion quite frequently by the V: in which be stirred up un arti ial bree oe. Senator who was in the chair, used the fan a to him principally as a prep for his: ehin. Occasionally, however, le =6fwould) = give ~=s the =O leaf) =a few | deliberate flourishes. just enough to keep the thes at a respectable distance. Senator Reagan neglected eutirely the fan which was put on his own desk. He sat in the absent Senator Brown's seat—the chair for which his soul doth pine—and wore the edge off Senator Brown's | fan by scrubbing it against his face. Senator Faulkner's perspiration promoter had quick, nervous motion, especially when the little tilt, between Senator Sherman and Senator ‘Teller was in progress. Senators McMillan and Vance were so delighted with their fans that they carried all over the place and even across the Capitol to the House. Senator MeMillan’s method is a success and he actually succeeds in keeping himself cool, Senators Ransom, Colquitt, } ate. Cullom, Payne. Allison, Sanders and Platt completely ignored the’ faus which liberal government had considerately provided for them. Each of the pages carried two fansand they managed to keep them all in operation. SILVER AND FREE FAD There were lots of tans in the Senate press gallery lobby, and as there was nothing more startling than a silver debate in the chamber newspaper men laid in their chairs, out of range of the orators’ voices, and fanned themselves with a good deal of persistency. The majority m tue Senate may vote for a protective tariff, but it believes in free fans. WOULD NOT BE INTERRUPTED. Mr. Sherman Declines to Yield the Floor to Mr. Teller. Senator Sherman does not like to be inter- rupted, and he told Senator Teller so some- whate phatically this afternoon. The Ohioan was talking about silver and against the Colorado idea. He quoted certain figures from # government report and their accuracy was instantl, Senator Teller. Mr. 8! figures must be correct because they were from & government report and then he asked what “newspaper scrap” would be brought in to con- trovert what he had read. Senator Teller’s manuer and speech were both apologetic, but he insisted that the truth had not been told. He desired to correct the statement before it reached the public. He was proceeding todo this when Senator In- galls, who was in the chair, went to Mr, Sher- man’s aid by asking the latter whether he would yield the floor, Mr. Shermen said he would not and then Senator Teller promised to say something when the Buck statesman got through, Mr, Sherman answered tuat that would be the much more proper way in the Senate. This caused asmile to cire late all around the chamber. Aimost every- body laughs justa little when the dignity of the Senate is referred to. WHY THE PRESIDENT VETOED IT. He Does Not Think Hudson Needs a Public Building. ‘The President returned to the Senate yester- day without “:is approval the bill for the eree- tion of a public bnildiug at Hudson, N.Y. Hud- son, from the best information obtainable, the President says, is a city of only a little more than 10,000 population. If the postal receipts challenged by are # fair indication of the growth of the city | it has not been rapid, as they only increased about £4,000 in ten years. The gross receipts for 1888 were but $14,809, and the office force consists of three clerks and five carriers. There are no other goverument officers at Hudson entitled under the law to offices or to an allow- ance for rent. unless it be « deputy collector of internal revenue. 3 It appears, he continues, from the bill and correspondence with the surpervising architect that it is to erect a two-story buiid- ing with vaults, heating and ventilat- ing apparatus aud elevators, 40 by 80 teet in di- mensions.

The Qneen Petitioned to Defend Her Subjects From France. Hautrax, N.S., June 5.—-Commenting on the recent action of the French in prohibiting fish- ing by natives in Newfoundiand waters the St. Jobu's, Newfoundland, Herald says: The news thata French man-of-war had, under the very | guns of a British frigate, enforced an order which forbade British subjects to fish in their |own waters was received bere with astonish- ‘ment and indignation. The circumstance seemed incredivle. Wher once the fact of the outrage was real ized no one expressed any surprise at the de- termination of the people of St. Georges Bay to renounce obedience to local officials and to pay no more duties until their wrongs were re- dressed. These men were exercising their un- doubted right of fishing. There was not | French fisherman with: Their sole m: prosecuting.
