Brown of the Smithsonian Institution. The Jatter two were formerly employed in the fish commis. sion.

MILLIONS ARE IN IT, Mr. Cannon Explains the Figures in the Sundry Civil Bill. THE APPROPRIATION BILLS, Serg’t-at-Arms Valentine Elected by Resolution. ———__ MORE SILVER TALK IN THE SENATE. > SENATE, Mr. Morrill presented remonstrances from two counties in Vermont against the imposition of a duty on tin, Referred to finance commit- tee, A Senate bill for a public building at Wilkes- barre, Pa., (cost not to exceed $125,000), was reported and placed on the calendar. THE NEW SERGEANT-AT-ARMS, The resolution offered yesterday by Mr, Ed- munds appointing Edward K. Valentine ser- geant-at-arms of the Senate was taken up and agreed to, an amendment offered by Mr. Har- ris substituting the name of Henry W. Wall of ‘Tennessee having been first voted down. A PUBLIC BUILDING BILL AGREED TO. The conference report on the Senate bill for a public building in the borough of Beaver Falls, Pa., was presented and agreed to, The cost is not to exceed 250,000, CHEYENNE OUTRAGER, Mr. Paddock said he had received several telegrams from Nebraska in regard to out- rages by the Cheyenne Indians in that state, and asked the chairman of the committee on Indian affairs whether any action was being taken by that committee in relation to the matter. Mr. Dawes had begun to respond to the ques- tion, but, on the suggestion of Mr. Plumb that there were only afew hours left for the dis- cussion of the silver bill, the matter was al- lowed to go over till tomorrow. THE SILVER BILL, The Senate silver bill was then taken up and Mr. Morgan resumed the floor. HOUSE, The House after the reading of the journal went into commuttee of the whole (Mr. Bur- rows of Michigan in the chair) on the sundry civil appropriation bill. Mr. Cannon said that the amount of appro- priation carried by the measure was, in round numbers, $28,000,000. This was #10,000,000 less than the regular estimates and $13,000,000 less than the regular and special estimates. The sundry civil law for the cur- rent year provided for an expendi- ture “of €25,000,000, The apparent excess in this bill was largely more than ac- counted for by certain extraordinary items, Among these were expenditures by the light house service, the Bureau of Engraving and Printing. the eleventh census, the irrigation survey, the library building, artificial limbs for soldiers, homes for disabled volunteer soldiers and aid to state homes, These amounted to $8,700,000. The bill was liberai, effective and economical. The fourteen regular appropriation bills as reported to the House aggregated an expendi- ture of %306,000,000, showing an excess of $35,000,000 over the appropriations for the our- rent year, This excess was nearly ail accounted for in three bills—pension, $18,000,000; post oflice, $12.000,000, and naval, 2,160,000. ‘The other $3,000,000 resulted from the expansion incident to the growth of the country. THE CONDITION OF APPROPRIATION BILLS. Mr. Cannon then gave a statement of tbe at- titude of the appropriation bills, The only Dill not reported to the House was the general deficiency bill, and this would be reported be- fore the close of the fiscal year. There was pending the sundry civil and the Indian bills. In the Senate committee on ap- propriations were the agricultural and diplo- matic and post office bills, and in the Senate committee on commerce the river and harbor bill, Pending in the Sen- ate was the legislative bill. The fortification bill had passed both Houses with Senate amendments. The District of Co- lumbia, naval and pension bills were in conter- ence. The army and Military Academy biils were in the hands of the President. This was a favorable showing with the condition of the bills two years ago, A number of amendments were adopted. THE IRRIGATION SURVEY, Mr. Goodnight (Ky.) moved to strike out the clause relative to the irrigation survey. Mr. Dockery (Mo.) said that the only thing the committee had to determine was whether 1t would repeal the existing law. which segregated the arid lands and prohibited them from settlement, or make this appropri- ation, Mr. McMillin (Teun.) inquired whether the bill did not leave the laud tied up as securely as at present. Mr. Dockery replied that it did not. Under the law the land was segregated and could only be settled after survey. He had opposed the inauguration of the irri gation system, but Congress owed it to the western country either to repeal the law or make the appropriation, wee NAMED FOR MR. PORTER, An-Indiana Baby That Arrived Just in Time to be Counted. The daily mail received at the Census Office is enormous and it represents a great deal of work. A letter was found in the mass today, however, that set the office in a broad grin as it passed through the usual channels, It was from a census enumerator in Indiana ad- dressed to Superintendent Porter and was as follows: “Finding a baby without » name that was born just in time to have its nose counted and the tamily undecided as to aname, the matter was finally left to me, whereupon I christened him Porter F. Crabb, the first after you and the second for myself. As the kid is from a long line of good old Kentucky blood I hope the name will not handicap him in the race of life.” Mr. Porter has not decided to send a silver cup to his new namesake, THE BOARD OF APPRAISERS, Several Names Sald to Have Been Agreed Upon for Appointment. Secretary Windom had a long conference yesterday afternoon relative to the appoint- ments of the nine general appraisers provided for in the customs administrative bill. It is un- derstood that several names were agreed upon, but that no nominations will be made until the list is complete, It is generally thought that Assistant Secre- tary Tichenor will be made president of the board. Among those mentioned as being likely to obtain appointments are Sohciter Hepburn, Second Controller Gilkeson, Chief Special Agent Tingle, the present general sppraise hia; Special’ Ageuts| Monigomesy. Spautdtn IndSewell, ex-Assistant Secretary. Mayne and Civil Service Commissioner Thompson. The appointments will probably be made next week. The Lafayette Monument. Secretary Proctor has received a cablegram from Minister Reid, at Paris, stating that it would be a month before the Lafayette statne could be shipped. It had been found to recut some of the marble of the pedestal ix order to the bronzes fit, Sugar has advanced 22,60 a barrel in Phila- dolphia, and dealers in thet city expect the THE DISTRICT COMMITTEES. The Senators Agree to Report the Mc- Pherson Railroad Bill. MR. INGALIS STANDS OUT AGAINST IT To THE LAST—MR. FAULKNER'S AMENDMENT—OTHER MEASURES CONSIDERED BY THE SENATORS—NO QUORUM OF THE HOUSE COMMITTEE PRESENT Topay. The House District committee failed to hold their regular meeting, a quorum of the mem- bers not being present. An informal meeting was held, however, and several measures dis- cussed. Mr. Grout was at the Capitol and seems greatly improved in health. He will remain in Washington until after the next District day, when the Baltimore and Potomac railroad question will be further discussed and probably finally settled. THE SENATORS AND THE RAILROAD PROBLEM. There never was a greater quantity of con- densed discussion over any one measure than was turned loose by the Senate committee on the District of Columbia this morning when it considered the McPherson- Atkinson iil to legalize the right of occupation now claimed by the Baltimore and Potomac Railroad Company. The whole business was done in less than half an hour, and it would have been concluded sooner bad not one or two Senators insisted that the pub- lic had_present rights as well as the corpora- tion, Every Senator was in his place when tho measure was reported to the full committee by Senator McMillan, chairman of the sub- committee, and there was no delay until the work had been done and Mr. McMillan was clothed with authority to report the bill to the Senate. More than one Senator was of opinion that the bill should be amended so as to compel the sompauy to give something tangible in return forthe valuable gift provided for in the measure, but these were assured that such propositions were inopportune. The company, it was stated, was more than willing, even anxious, to Please the citizens of Washington, but it would withhold the beneficial improvements re- quested until its grip upon everything in sight was legally clinched, MESSRS. INGALLS AND FAULKNER OPPOSE. From beginning to end Senator Ingalls op- posed the bill, not because he was unwilling to grant the railroad such facilities as might be necessary for the proper handling of its freight business but because he thought the public rights were pre-eminent and should be recog- nized in the bill. Senator Faulkner was of like mind, but his opposition was hardly so sharply defined as was that of the Senator from Kansas, There was nothing slow about the language. Everybody tried to talk at once and for awhile everybody succeeded, and while the talk wa going on the bill slipped through to the place destined for it ever since its introduction. MR. FAULKNER'S AMENDMENT. Seeing that the motion to report favorably could not be defeated, Senator Faulkner suc- ceeded in adding a new section to the bill to the effect that Congress reserves the right to alter, umend or repeal the act; then he voted to report. Senator Ingalls maintained his po- sition to the last. FOR FUTURE CONSIDERATION. Speaking of the bill after the committee ad- journed, Senator McMillan said to a Srar re- porter that it was the fairly unanimous desire of the committce to give the railroad company the facilities it immediately desired, leaving for future consideration the questions of mali occupation or track depression. shall, in alittle while,” said the Senator, “introduced a resolution calling upon the Dis- trict Commissioners to have made such maps and plans as may be deemed necessary to make plain all matters connected with the improvements desired as much by the railroad company as by the people of the District, If we had delayed the present bill until these maps could be made the business men would have continued to wrestle over the freight problem for a year to come. Now the Commissioners can get us all data during the recess, and when we meet again next December everything will be ready and we can go ahead with aciear understand- ing of the engineering difficulties that are evi- dently in the way, I will prepare a bill which will have for its cbject the amelioration of the existing conditions, and I know that the rail- road company will do everything in its power to aid me in making the bill a law.” . AMENDMENTS TO THE BILL. ‘The amendments to the bill are few and far between, The first one is to section 2and restricts the streets on which the Commission- ers are authorized to allow sidings, making that ortion of the section read: “It shall be the Baty of the Commissioners, whenever they consider it « pubiic benefit, to grant the Baiti- more and Potomac Kailroad Company permission to lay, maintain and use side tracks and sidings from their main line east of 6th street and west of 12th street southeast into,any real estate, dc.” The second amendment is to section 3 which authorizes the condemnation of land.
