Failure of the Conference on the Legislative Appropriation Bill. ——— A FURTHER CONFERENCE ORDERED. — SENATE. Senate bill to suspend the operation of the statute of limitations in certain cases in the District of Columbia was reported back ad- versely and indefinitely postponed. OPPOSING THE ADMISSION OF WYOMING. The consideration of the bill for the admis- sion of Wyoming asastate was resumed and Mr. Morgan addressed the Senate in opposi- tion to it. If the people of the United States (he said) felt no greater interest in the bill than the Senate had exhibited yesterday and during the whole of the discussion it would be hardly worth while to take up any time in ex- planation of the principles involved, Either » majority of the Senate had come to some under- standing or agreement that the bill was to pass, notwithstanding any objections or argu- ments that might be urged against it, or else the matter of allowing new states into the Union had become such » common- place affair that it scarcely attracted the atten- tion of those who were in the Senate as am- bassadors from their own states. The admis- sion of a state into the Union was,*to his mind, the most solemn and important fact with which the Senate had to deal Pretty nearly all the territory of the United States was now exhausted, in repsect to which the Senate could exercise the high functions of creating local_sovereigntios within the boundaries of the Union, and it seemed to him that in the disposition of the remainder of it there ought to be some thoughtful and careful attention to all the fu- ture interests, not merely of the people imme- diately concerned, but also to the PRESERVATION OF THE JUST BALANCE OF POWER in the Senate between the different geographi- cal sections of the country. The protection thrown by the Constitution around the re- spective states in the persons of their Senators and in their influence in the Senate indicated that there ought to be the most conservative care exereised in reference to the admission of new states, Looking at the rights of his own state and of the other sister states he had the clear right and also the obligatory duty to ascertain whether the state proposed to be admitted had shown a sufficient degree of qualifications in the proceedings which had led up to the organization that presented itself, and to see whether it was in all respects such a civil com- munity as ought to be invested with the power of local sovereignty. Mr. Jones (Ark.) having called the attention of the presiding officer to the audible conver- sation carried on between Senators, Mr. Mor- (o said that the conversation did not disturb im at all; that he was TALKING TO THE REPORTERS AND TO THE COUNTRY, and that he did not expect to get the attention of the Senate, because, ‘although one rose from the dead,” he could not get attention in the Senate during the hours of working up political Projects and plans, CONFERENCE REPORT ON THE LEGISLATIVE, ETC., APPROPRIATION BILL, Mr. Morgan yielded the floor to Mr. Dawes who presented the conference report on the legislative, executive and judicial appropriation bill. The report showing that there were numerous amendments on which the conference com- mittee had not come to an agreement it was stated by Mr. Dawes that all these amendments but two were for the increase of the number of Senate embloyes and for the increase of their compensation. The other two wero for the increase of the sulary of the com- missioner of the general land office from $4,000 to $5,000 and of the assistant commissioner from $3,000 to #3,500. The question, he said, was open either to s motion to insist or to re- cede, Mr. Sherman made the motion to recede, remarking that such amendments ought not to be forced by one House on the other, Messrs. Paddock, Dolph, Spooner and Gor- man opposed the motion to recede and favored further conference. Mr. Hale (one of the conferees) said that the tronble with the House was that the Senate had made such a large increase of salaries and sach @ large increase of its official force, and, while he was willing that there should be an- other conference, he gave notice that if a dis- agreement were again reported he would renew the motion to recede. He did not wish to have the Senate placed before the country as insisting onsuch a large increase of pay and of force. dur. Gorman (the democratic member of the conference committee) dissented empeatically from the position taken by a Hale. The question, he said, was not | simply & question of the amount involved in the amendments, It went away beyond that. The Senate had (as it had a right) fixed the com- pensation and number of its employes, and it would be very strange indeed if it should tamely submit to dictation on that point from any quarter. . Mr. Hale remarked that the contest was one which the Senate could not maintain. The House had a right to see to it that the scale of salaries of Senate employes should be reason- able. A FURTHER CONFERENCE ORDERED. After further discussion Mr. Sherman with- drew his motion to recede and the Senate voted to insist on its amendments and to ask a further conference. The new conferees are Mesera. Dawes, Plumb and Gorman. THE WYOMING BILL AGAIN, Mr. Morgan resumed the floor and continued his argument against the Wyoming bill. He favored the substitute offered yesterday by Mr. Jones (Ark.), an enabling act for Wyom- ing, Idaho, Arizona and New Mex- ico, and dilated upon the great natural resources of New Mexico, He did not know any community in the United States that com- pared with the people of that territory in the evelopment of their natural resources, considering all the — embarrassments and difficulties under which they had labored. They had enormous masses of coal and great bodies ot iron ore at their command; and New Mexico was the only place that he knew where aman could dig coke out of the ground. Its mineral power and wealth was absolutely unexampled and irrepres- sible, The adoption of the substitute was the only way to eliminate from the ques- tion the element of political considerations. HOUSE, Mr. Dockery (Mo.), rising to » parliamentary inquiry, asked whether it would be in order to reconsider the vote by which the postal clerks’ leave bill was passed yesterday. He had been informed yesterday by the gentleman who called up the bill, Mr. Ketcham (.¥.), that it did not involve an appropriation. whereas Brown | he now learned that it would involve an ex- nditure of $316,000. “ Mr. Ke : to ing for the present. ‘MX. HAUGEN IN SUPPORT OF THE ELECTION BILL. ‘The consideration of the election bill was then resumed, Mr. (Wis.) the House in mipportof the measure, ‘He det elections—a clear tof Congress. The bill ‘The objections made to the bill by southern members constituted » deliberate insult to the south itself. A promiment democratic leader in Mississippi advocated the requirement of a property qualification in the voter, and had suggested that such a provision would restore supremacy to the whites. That in itself was a confession that the whites wrongfully exer- cised supremacy at present. Another demo- crat—Judge Pate of Arl , 8 contestant for @ seat on the floor of the House—had justified the outlar mob violence of certain negroes who been elected to local offices on the ground that they were not property holders, These people forgot that property itself was valueless without labor. Now the bill proposed to follow the local election sys- tems. It would take the most ingenious and complicated system that could be devised, re- quiring only that it should be openly and hon- estly conducted, ‘MB. OCOVERT’s COMMENTS. Mr. Covert (N.Y.) said that the bill was an evidence of the distrust felt by republicans of 8 government of and for the people. Recently the Speaker had attended the banquet of the Americus Club at Pittsburg. He had spoken, after long years of silence, upon falsitication of election returns, bulldozing, and all the harrowin, details of southern outrages, Why be a spoken after that long silence he (Mr. Covert) was unable to say, un- less he was conscious that he was at the time addressing a deliberative body. He had spoken of the emergency that con- fronted us. The republican party was USED TO MEETING EMERGENCIES. They had met them in Indiana when they sent in Dorsey with his money and Dadley with his floaters in blocks of five, and Quay, the arch angel of the party. This bill was intended to undo the work of the fathers of the Constitu- tion, The clause of the Constitution upon which it was founded was allowed to remain in the Constitution only upon solemn assurance that it was intended solely to meet the emergency of the refusal of a state tosend representa- tives to Congress, The smaii army of federal officials at the polls, with powers superior to those possessed by the inspectors of the stato, of the people, signaled and heralded the end of the government by the people and for the people. Where then would be that government? Gone, as the leaves swept away by the blasts of autumn, Gone forever, and the people of this republic would no longer govern themselves, This proposition was to bring back the returning boards of Florids and South Carolina—the days of the electoral commission—the days that every patriotic man would forget if he couid. THE NOTES OF WARNING had been sounded; they were still ringing and should be heeded. If it were true, as intelli- gent men predicted, that the passage of this bill would have a tendency to revive race prejudice in the south and restore the southern states to the condition of reconstruction da: if this were true, then it would turn ck the hands upon the dial and retard the progress of those sections and of the whole republic. Race prejudice was practically extinct. in God's name, a8 lovers of the country, he besought tbe House not to seek to revive that prejudice now. He begged it to give assurance to the whole countzy that the civil war ended over a quarter of acentury ago. [Applause.] DENOUNCING THE BILL, Mr. Flower (N. ¥.) denounced the bill as un-republican, un-democratic and un-American 48 @ measure, constructed upon the idea that the small republican majority now in Con- gress could better legislate for the people than the people themselves. Any court that would lend itself to the execution of its corrupt purposes and become the unscrupulous servants of the political oli- garchy would richly deserve the censure it Was sure to receive, ‘The history of the politi- cal prosecutions of some of our federal courts was already rank with unscrupulous abuses of the law, and this bill, if passed, would add many more such chapters. Among all the other acts of this Congress it stood pre-eminent 4 MOST RECKLESS AND DESPERATE MEASURE to maintain a minority in power in this coun- try, whose purpose was to offer an opportunity for fraud. The bill sought to promote con- fie” between state and federal officers, and never before in the history of the country had there been such a jumble of local and federal functions in any law. ‘he attempt to control state officers in the discharge of their duties is dangerous and threatening incursion into the domain of local self-government that no thirst for power can justify and no hypocritical pre- tense of adesire fora free ballot and a fair count can excuse. The framers of this bill are not, however, content to stop at a usurpation of the authority of the community, but extend their interference to the rights of the people to the individuals composing the com- munity by providing for a house-to-house can- vass, sending the supervisors and deputy mar- shals to force an entrance, if need be, into the houses of the people “to verify by proper inquiry and examination at the respective places of residence” of voters the correctness of the registratioa books, and to make “a thorough and effective house-to-house canvas of election districts to ascertain the quali cations of male voters residing there, The only commendable feature of this whole pro- vision lies in the exemption, by the INSERTION OF THE WORD “MALE,” of the female suffragists in Wyoming and else- where from the inquisitional impudence of these eminently respectable republican federal office holders in their endeavors to divide the floaters into blocks of five, with a trusted man with necessary funds in'charge of each five, responsible that none get away and that ali vote the republican ticket, The republican party bad chosen a most in- appropriate time to enact a law interfering with jocal control of elections. The last presi- dential election with ita fat tryings, its blocks of five, its pay envelopes, _ite special committees to raise the funds to be isbursed, indirectly, under the supervision of protective cabinet officers. and its multifarious methods of doubtful propriety aroused the People to a sense of the dangers that beset the elective franchise, and throughout the country the agitation for # reformed ballot has gone on until in many states the reformed ballot has been adopted and there is an encouraging rospect of its adoption in others, It is best to leave this subject to be dealt with by THE PUBLIC CONSCIENCE IN THE SEVERAL STATES. The system already enacted in some of the states is expensive to the people, it being eeti- mated that the expense of the administration of the law newly enacted in New York, for a single election, will amount to $1,000,000 tor bal- lots alone. The people who will subject them- selves to this burdensome system in the interest of a fair ballot can as safely be reiied upon to conduct fair elections as can a lot of irresponsi- ble federa officials, who will reasonably expect their reward to' bear a true proportion to their party services, It was safe to estimate that the bill would cost $6,500,000 for a single election, The republican party had become quite an ex- pensive luxury, and the people were educating themselves to do without it. Me. Speaker (he said in conclusion), if this measure Pasves and is sustained by the courts it will revolutionize the government and set upon the ruins of our free institution a government by fear, force and fraud. It means the inaugura- tion of the state of affairs throughout the whole country that ruled tor several ears in @ Bit sect: with the substation for the wel of the soldier for the club of the deputy marshal. Its do: immediate effect will be most harmful to the whole country, but the ultimate result will be that the people will drive from power in the government the = that sought to profit by it before it can pull the whole temple down on — heads.

Ralin-in-the-Face, Stabbed by His Squaw, is Not Likely to Recover. Mrxweapouis, Mrvx., June 27.—Rain-in-the- Face, who was stabbed yesterday by his squaw, is known as the Indiam at whose hands Gen. Custer died. He led the main attack on the United States troops, and when the final struggle came pui himself face to face with the cavalry leader. Both were mounted, but at the first shot Custer’s horse fell, carrying him to the ground. A bullet from Rain-in-the- Face’s riffle killed the general before he could shield himself. The fearful mutilation prac- ticed on the other bodies was not permitted on Custer’s, however, the Sioux chief posting him- self on guard and’ warning his maddened fol- lowers away. Rain-in-the-Face cannot live. ——— THE SITUATION UNCHANGED. The Ulinois Central Strike No Nearer a Settiement. Cutcaco, June 27.—The situation in the mat- ter of the Illinois Central railroad strike re- mains unchanged, andit is not thought that any new move will be inaugurated by either party until after the conclusion of the strikers’ meeting, which convened at 9 o'clock this morning. Grand Master Wilkinson of the Brotherhood of Trainmen and Grand Master Sargent of the Brotherhood of Locomotive Firemen are in the city, and though, so far as can be learned, they have taken no active part in the matter, their counsei will doubtless be sought before final action is taken. THE COMPANY'S ULTIMATUM. General superintendent Sullivan’s ultimatum refusing to discharge Division Superintendent Russell was laid before the striking employes of the Illinois Central at 2 general meeting, held in secret, this morning. The session bee gan at 9:15 o'clock, Grand Master Williamson of the Switchmen’s Brotherhood being present. It is the general opinion that the men will de- cide to declare the strike off. No action has been taken looking to the employment of men to take the strikers’ places and itjis notintended tomake any move in this direction until all hope of a settlement by negotiation shall have been abandoned. At the general offices of the Illinois Central railway it was learned this morning that the strike proper extends over the lines of the road between Chicago and Cairo, IIL, and be- tween Amboy, Ill., and Dubuque, Iowa. On these lines everything is tied up. On the Wis- consin division, which extends from Chicago to Madison, Wis., by way of Freeport, iil. there is no’ strike, and the company bas re- ceived assurances from many of the men on that division that they are not in sympathy with the tie-up at Chicago. This, however, does not help matters as far as through busi- ness is concerned. because it cannot be gotten eut of Chicago to send over the road, aud it cannot be gotten into Chicago from outside. ON THE TOPEKA, Newron, Kan., June 27.—A meeting is being held here of the general grievance com- mittees of the entire Atchison, Topeka and Santa Fe tystem.

Wartertoo, towa, June 27.—The officials of the Iowa division of the Illinois Central ad- mitted last night that there was a probability of the strike reaching the Iowa division. The company yesterday afternoon instructed all their agents in Iowa not to receive freight of any kind for shipment east of Dubuque nor to sell tickets to pointe east of that place. It is also currently rumored among railroad men that the Chicago, St. Paul and Kansas City men will strike if that line persists in carrying Illi- nois Central freight or passangers east of Dubuque, STRUCK A SNAG, Isp1aNaPouis, Ixp., June 27.—The Big Four engineers did not present their schedule yes- terday.
