SENATE. Mr. Frye introduced a bill authorizing the Secretary of the Treasury to settle the in- debtedness to the government of the Sioux City and Pacific Railway Company. Referred to the select committee on Pacific railroads. Senate bill to authorize the leasing of school lands in the territory of Oklahoma (for the benefit of the public schools) was taken from the calendar, po cara by Mr. Plumb and passed. ‘The leases are not to be for a longer period than five years; and the necessity for the bill arises out of the fact that homesteaders have settled on the lands, not knowing that they were school lauds, and that special agents from the general land of- fice have been serving notices on the settlers to remove from the lands immediately. These notices Mr. Plumb referred to as “without parallel as to brutality in the history of civil government,” AGAINST POLYGAMISTS. Mr. Morgan introduced a bill (which was re- ferred to the committee on public lands) pro- viding that no person shall enter any of the public lands of the United States in Wyoming, under the homestead or other laws, who is a bigamist or a polygamist, or who teaches,coun- sels, aids or encourages others to enter into bigamy or polygamy, or who is a member of any association that teaches polygamy.

Mr. Dawes, from the conference committee on the legislative appropriation Dill, reported that the committee had been unable to agree. ‘The Senate, he said, was aware of the question between the two houses as to the pay of Sen- ators’ clerks and of committee cierks. The Senate conferees had sought but had not found & common ground of agreement. They had been met with the —_declara- tion that it was impossible to bring the House to an agreement different from the text of the bill. The Senate conferees had proposed that the clerks in question should be made annual clerks (but without increased compensation), but even that proposition had been rejected. The House conferees had taken the position that the House had gone as far as it would go in agreeing to the provision in the Dill as it passed the House. Nothing, there- fore, had Os left to the Senate conferees ex- cept to surrender at discretion or to report back to the Senate. If the Senate asked a fur- ther conference he desired that it should be intrusted to other hands, He added that there iad been the utmost good fecling mani- fested in the conference and that he believed that a further conference would be hopeless, ‘MR. SHERMAN’S PLANS. Mr. Sherman gave it as his opinion that the time had come when the Senate should say po- litely to the House: “While we insist that we ought to be allowed to appropriate for our own employes a reasonable compensation, yet, as that cannot be done except by achange of the law, and as you refuse that change, ws will recede.” That seemed the dignified way as be- tween the two houses, Mr. Cockreil moved to insist on the amend- ment and said that he would follow that mo- tion with another instructing the Senate con- ferees to propose an annual compensation of ‘$1,500 ‘instead of @1,800, OPPOSED TO CONTINUING THE CONTEST. The first motion having been agreed to, Mr. Berry moved to reconsider that motion, and said that there was no reason in continuing the contest. An appropriation bill was not the proper place to legislate on increase of salaries, Besides. he believed that €6 a day was quite suflicient for a Senator's clerk, and there was no sense in insisting on that which could not be accomplished. THE SENATE INSISTS, The motion to reconsider was negatived— yeas, 5; nays, 47, The yeas were Messrs, Berry, George, Hale, Hawley and Reagan. Mr. Cockrell then moved to instruct the Senate conferees to propose an annual compen- sation of $1,500 instead of $1,800. Agreed to— yeas, 28; nays, 23. THE NEW CONFERERS are Messrs. Dawes, Plumb and Cockrell. THE DISTRICT APPROPRIATION BILL. ‘The conference report on the District of Co- lumbia bill was then taken up—the question being on the section requiring street railroad companies whose earnings in 1889 exceeded 10 per cent of the face value of their stock to sell 8 tickets for 25 cents, MR. EDMUNDS’ POINT OF ORDER. Mr. Edmunds again presented the point of order which he had made yesterday, and which was then overruled, to the effect that as neither house had passed upon the question, or any analogous question, the conference committee had no right to report such an amendment. He quoted from Cushing’s Manual of Parlia- mentary Law, and referred to congressional precedent sustaining his contention. PRESIDENT INGALLS AGAIN OVERRULES IT. » The presiding officer (Mr. Ingalls) said that he retained the judgment which he had ex- pressed yesterday—that a conference report ‘was not subject to a point of order. A commit- tee of conference, he said, was the joint organ of the two houses, and the difficulty would be apparent when the suggestion was made of what might occur if the point of order was raised in each house and was ruled differently in each. The chair agreed with the Senator from Vermont that the conference committee had transcended its just powers in reporting the amendment, but the chair believed that the only remedy was for the Senate either to re- ject or agree to the report of the conference committee, MR. SHERMAN AGAINST THE FOURTH SECTION. Mr. Sherman said that, as it was apparent that the subject had not been considered in either Louse, and that the adoption of the amendment would entail a reduction of re- ceipts of the Washington and Georgetown Rail- road Company greater than its annual divi- dend (if it would not entirely bankrupt the company), he hoped the report would be dis- agreed to. He would then move that the con- ference committee be requested to have the fourth section struck out. ‘MR. GORMAN’S VIEWS, ‘Mr. Gorman said it was just possible that the fourth section might be a little objectionable. But if it should turn out that it did injustice to ‘one company (for it only applied to one) that could be remedied at the next session. ‘That com, ny was amply able to bear the tax for the time being. Its dividends last year had been $100,000 on a capital of $500,000. It was the most valuable street raiiroad line in the District, If the amendment were agreed to the company would come next session be- fore committees of the two houses and, for the first time since its organization, nt a full and fair statement of its affair: fore hoped that the amendment would be adopted. ‘THE CONFERENCE REPORT NOT AGREED To. The question was taken on agreeing to the conference report, and the report was not agreed to—ycas 21, nays 28, ‘THE VOTE IN DETAIL, HENDRICKS HONORED The Magnificent Morfument at’ In- dianapolis Unveiled.

It wasa red-hot day, The heat poured down as though @ million furnace doors had been thrown open in the heavens, There was not the slightest suspicion of a breeze. But the crowds of men and women that began to pour out of the Union depot almost with break of day did not seem to mind it. They took the shady side of the street, when they could find any, and tried to look cool and happy. All the roads centering in or passing through the city had provided for a heavy inpour by putting on special trains, and they found their facilities tuxed to the utmoat. In some of the trains of ten and twelve cars the people were packed like sardines, and for hours right up to noon the big depot discharged a steady stream of per- spiring humanity into Illinois street. The local committee had provided 20,000 silk badges, with a bust cut of Hendricks and ap- propriate letter press, but the supply was soon exhausted, and even if there had been twice as | many there would not have been sufficient to goround, To many of the visitors the Bates, Grand and Denison hotels, where Governors Hill, Campbell and Francis were respectively quartered, were the great centers of attraction, and they besieged the rotundas and the street outside in the hope of getting a view of the dis- tinguished visitors. THE DAY's EXERCISES. The three chief executives drove to the state house shortly after 10@’clock and after being introduced to each other by Gov. Hovey in his private parlor, held an informai reception for a couple of hours. Meanwhile the various di- visions of the parade had began to form at the designated rendezvous and at 1 o'clock when Chief Marshall Gen. Fred. Knefter was satis- fied that all was in readiness the signal was given by the firing of seven guns by the bat- tery stationed at the north side of the court house square and the head of the column moved. The metropolitan police under com- mand of Superintendent Travis led the way, with chief marshal and staff and mounted cs. cort close in the rear. The first division com- manded by Col. W. J. McKee was made up of the second regiment infantry Indiana Legion, the Indianapolis light artillery battery, the Knights of Pythias and the Knights of Honor, and the uniforms of the military with the gay plumage and regalia and their columns coi ined to present a brilliant spectacle. The sec- ond division was led by the Hendricks Club of Indianapolis, with J. B. Curtis commanding. Its members marched in a square as a special escort to the carriage containing Mrs. Hen- dricks, President Rand of the Monument Asso- ciation, and Senator Turpie, the orator of the day. CHEERING MRS. HENDRICKS, One continuous cheer greeted the venerable widow as the carriage moved slowly from block to block and Mrs, Hendricks,who looked some- what fatigued, smiled and bowed her thanks to the right and left. Behind this carriage in columns of fours marched the members of the Young Men's Gray Club, Cleveland Club and Bynum Club, all of Indianapolis, In the third division, commanded by Jas, R. Carnahan, was the visiting clubs from Indiana and other states, These included 100 members of the Cook county democracy of Chicago, wearing handsome badges and headed by the Second Regiment Band, They marched with military tread and presented splendid appearance. They were loudly cheered. The Duckworth Club of Cincinnati, 200 strong, also made a fine appearance, as did the Jefferson Club and the Jackson Club of Dayton, Ohio. Following these, in the fourth division, were carriages, four abreast, containing Govs. Hill, Campbell, Francis and Hovey and their parties, the com- mittees of the Monument Association, Board of Trade and Commercial Club and the judiciar; state, county and eo officials. The fifth vision was composed of veteran soldiers’ or- ganizations, and the sixth and last of the city and ward organizations of Indianapolis. The sidewalks along the line of march were packed with people, who heartily cheered the visiting governors, the clubs from abroad and the other features of the that excited their enthusiasm. Each division had its bands of music and the numberless » banners and other devices that floated in the air tended to complete the magnificent spectacie, AT Tie MONUMENT. It was 2 o'clock, despite the fact that owing to the extreme heat the route had been short- ened, before the head of the procession reached the state house grounds. Here, almost as far asthe eye could reach, the spectators were massed. From the base of tho stutue a platform had been erected for the speakers and distinguished guests, while to the right was an amphitheater filled with 500 school children, the majority little girls, in white. Company D of the Indianapolis Light Infantry ‘was posted around the upper base of the mon- ument, while the HendricksClub formed asquare around the lower base. The appearance of the carriage with Mrs, Hendricks and visiting gov- ernors was the al for the Sang ots entete of nine guns by the light artillery battery and the exercises were forthwith maugurated with an overture by the band.

New Onvraxs, July 1.—The opponents to the lottery bill, finding themselves beaten in both houses, have agreed to the following compro- mise proposition, which has been accepted by the lottery company: The lottory bill which has passed the house is to be passed by the senate without obstruction, the state accepting €1,250,000 a year for the lottery privilege. This bill is submitted in the form of an an to the state constitution. on by the people at the next state election, in April, 1892. Before that time, however (and this is the compromise agreed upon). a primal election is to be held at some day not yet agreed on, at which only whites shall vote on this question, either in favor of accepting the lottery company’s offer or against it. If a majority favors the proposition the “antis” to withdraw all opposition and let th ment go through in 1892 If against it the lottery company its offer and leave the state when its charter expires, This compromise takes the lottery question out of the next state election. whe it was feared, it would split the democratic party and cause great confusion, and submits | the matter mot to the whole vote of the state, but to the white voters alon LONGING FOR COOL WEATHER, Over Two Hundred Deaths in Chicago Yesterday—Many of Them From Heat, Curcaco, July 1.—There has been a steady increase in the death rate of the city ever since last Wednesday.

Dewan, Pa., July 1.—At 4 o'clock this morn- ing the opening into the Farm Hill mine was completed and the air tested. It was found to contain 20 per cent of black damp, This, in the opinion of Superintendent Hill, is conclu- sive evidence that none of the miners will be found hving, At 4:15 a.m. all of the rescuin party came out and the huge fans were starte to arive out the foul air from the mine to make further explosion impossible. The mine in- spectors fear that another explosion will occur when the mine gas is driven up to where the fire is yet burning. At 9 o'clock the slowed down and twenty se entered for the purpose of determining the fate of their fellows.

He is, b alone in his belief. Thirty coftins have been placed within the entry to the mine and every preparation made for any emergency that may arise.

Scraytox, July 1.—Although more than a majority of the delegates to the Pennsylvania democratic state conveniion are here now, it is impossible to say with any degree of positive- ness who will control the convention. Both candidates for governor and their friends are confidently claiming that they will organize the convention and nominate their candidate on the first ballot. The Pattison managers, who gave out a table last night showing how the counties would vote on the first ballot and which gave Pattison 200 votes, Wallace 114 and placed fifty-three in the doubtful column, said this morning that they would not change these figures. They claim to have all of the delegates indicated in the table assert they cannot be taken from them. The Wallace managers got to work early this morning and figured out a majority for the Clearfield county man on the first ballot. They showed the table to Senator Wallace and be approved it, saying be thought it was a very conservative estimate. It gives Wallace 1 Pattison, 130; doubtful, 43.
