KILLING TIME IN THE HOUSE. A Motion to Amend the Journal Finally Carried. MR. ROCERS CRITICIZES MR. REED. ——__— SENATE. Mr. Dawes presented a memorial from Lynn, Mass., protesting against appropriations for sectarian Indian schools, Referred, Mr. Stewart offered a resolution (which was agreed to) calling on the Secretary of the In- terior for information as to the selection of sites for reservoirs by the director of the geo- logical survey, MR, MOKGAN OPPOSES THE SILVER BILL. The Senate resumed consideration of the conference report on the silver bill, and was addressed by Mr. Morgan in opposition to the report. He expected that the day was to be @ crisis in the question of currency of the peo- ple of the United States, as much so in regard to the demonetization of silver and the con- fining of com to the single gold standard as was the act of 1873, He did not know but that the effect of the vote to be taken today (if it should result in the adoption of the confer- ence bill) would not be really more fatal to the prospect of silver coinage in the future than the act of 1873, The legislation of 1878 had been (he said) an act of cold-blooded assassi- nation of the silver dollar. It had been pre- sided over by the same Senator whose “fine Italian hand” was to be seen in the conference bill, a bill which was a total departure from the action of both the House and the Senate, and was as essentially new as if it had been a novel written by the Senator from Ohio within the last five daye, LEGISLATION CONTROLLED BY CONFERENCE COM- ‘MITTEE. Mr. Morgan went on to speak of legislation on all important matters being now entirely controlled by conference committees— commit- tees of arbitration, whose proceedings were secret; so that if such a committee were bribed to the extent of a hundred million dollars no Senator would be permitted to find it out. Mr. Allison remarked that there was no neces- sary secrecy about conference committees, They were public committees. Mr. Morgan replied to that remark by saying thatin this very discussion Mr. Sherman bad declined to answer a question as to proceedings in the conference committee on the ground that such proceedings were secret. MRE. BHERMAN SAID he had never denied to the Senate any infor- mation as to what took place in conference. He had been asked what particular conference had offered a particular proposition and he had felt that he was not at liberty to answer such a question. If he had been asked who voted for it he should have stated the exact fact; but as to disclosing con- versation in committee, that would be a de- Bore not only from parliamentary propriety ut from gentlemanly propricty. Mr. Morgan resumed his argument against the conference bill, and -alled the atten- tion of the friends of free coinage—particularly of the Senator from Colorado (Mr. Teller)—to the fact that the same “fine Italian hand” which had framed the act of 1873 had operated in the conference bill to destroy utterly any hope of the remonetization of silver, so long as it remained unrepealed. He predicted that when others of the conferces came to realize what they had done they would FEEL LIKE KICKING THEMSELVES over a ten-acre field. The bill would mono- metalize the country; would make gold the only thing with which to pay debts or to buy Property. The craft of the Senator from Ohio conid not (after a twelve-months’ considera- tion) have fixed up a bill that would more thoroughly destroy silver forever as money than the conference bill would. TRE LEGAL EFFECT OF THE BILT was plain, It was that the moment the price of silver was forced up to 37114 grains for a dollar the coinage of silver ceased. The peo- ple of the United States would hold to a strict accountability for that the men who. in the last moment, had “given away” the whole question to the opponents of silver money. MESSRS, FARWELL AND JONES JOIN IN A DISCUS- SION OF THE CURRENCY, The position taken by Mr. Morgan was con- troverted by Mr. Farwoil and Mr. Jones (Nev.) and a discussion was carried on between them as to the effect of the bill upon the currency of the country. In the course of the discussion Mr. Jones asked what would a gold dollar per- form for a farmer which « paper doliar would not perform as well, and Mr. Morgan said that the question showed that he had- “struck a i$ money man.” That Sen- ator (Mr. Morgan said had been years and years advocating with marked ability the making of gold and silver the basis of ail coin and currency of the country; and now he kicked it all away and dismissed it with a sneer and said that AS GOOD A DOLLAR ‘ could te turned out of the printing pressas out of the gold or silver mine. Mr. Jones—I did not enter on that discussion. Mr. Morgan—No; but you interpolated it into my specch. I know that the free-coinage Sena- tors who support the conference bill are ina tight place. ‘hoy are in a bad box, but not in half as bad a box as they will be in when the people ‘‘get a lick at them” for striking their colorsand providing for selling silver to the government, but not for its coinage, HOUSE, Prayer having been delivered the democratic program was carried out by Mr. Outhwaite (Ohio) raising the point of order that there ‘Was no quorum present. The Speaker glanced over the array of empty seats, and. without troubling himself to make & count of the members present, responded drily, “‘The point is well taken.” For a moment nothing was done, none of the republican leaders being in their seats; and then hr. McCreary (Ky.) took the initiative and moved a callof the House. He was not sustained by his party colleagues, however,and on a viva voce vote the motion tobe Jost. Then Mr. Allen (Mich.) threw himself into the breach and demanded the yeas and nays, The vote resulted—yeas, 115; nays, 70. One hundred members were paired on this vote. ‘A quorum having appeared, Mr. M moved to dispense with further proceedit under the |, but he was antagonized on hi own side of the House, and on demand of Mr. Bynum (Ind.) the yeas and nays were ordered. Further proceedings under the call were dispensed with—yens, 129; naye, 59—and the journal of yesterday's proceedings was read, Mr. Enloe (Tenn.) asked to have the journal corrected, in that it recorded that ona certain vote he was it and not voting. He was not present at any time during that vote, and though he appreciated the tribute’ to his fidel- ity in attending the sessions of the House it was at the expense of accuracy. Mr. Rogers (Ark.) objected to the request, Mr. Eploe then moved that the journal be corrected in accordance with the facts, The Speaker was abont to put the paced when Mr, ein claimed the for pur- pose of debat it “a DRUIBERATIVE BODY.” | that the rules had resulted in a false count, | Had not the House reached a curious climax in American history when gentlemen of the House, presumed to represent their respective districts, had to have their actions questioned by another Representative of another district | of another state, who had been honored by the highest place in the gift of the House, or the subordinates under him? If that was not A HUMILIATION AND 4 DISGRACE to the House he failed to apprehend the rela- tions which ought to bind gentlemen on this floor, A few days ago the House had listened to homilies on a free ballot and a fair count. Why, a fair count could not be obtained even in the Honse. He then pro- ceeded to quote from and comment upon Speaker Reed’s articie in the North American Review on the subject of contested elections. He regarded the article as an apology for the elections committee. Commenting on the fact that the recently seated members had voted for the federal election bill he said he was re- minded of the scriptural quotation: ‘Well dono thou good and faithful servant, enter thou into the service of the Lord,” (pointing to the Speaker.) CRITICIZING THE RULES. He then made a general criticism of the code of rules and quoted from a speech made by Mr. McKinley at the time of its adoption, to the effect that the people were more interested in what the House did than under the | rules under which it was done. This, said Mr. | Rogers, was the old maxim that “the end justi- | fics the means.” It was this principle that led to the stealing of the presidency in 1876 and to the ‘blocks of five” letter. Jt was that prin- ciple which inspired the pirate on the high seas to scuttle and rob ships, it was this prin- ciple which inspired the Federal election bill. He commended to the other side of the House | the article in the North American Review signed X.M.C. He was told that it was a lady who—to use an Irigh bull—fathered it, It was said that the real, author was a distinguished gentleman from Maine who held «high and honorable position under the present adminis- tration, ‘MR. ENLOE’S REMARKS. Mr. Enloe said that in mak‘ng the motion to correct the journal he had «ad no idea that it would lead to debate. He was glad to have been intrumental in bringing the gentleman from Arkansas within the pale of the Speaker's recognition; but he disclaimed any sort of un- derstanding with the gentlemen, for he would not like to disturb the harmonious relations | Which jad existed between the Speaker and self,’ He then stated that he had not been present yesterday when the journal showed that he was Present and not voting. The journal was then amended as suggested by Mr. Enloe. —— GOOD FOR STAY-AT-HOMES. But the Nice, Cool, Breezy Weather Will Not Last Till Sunday. Oh, isn’t this just lovely, was what all the young women of this city were saying this morning, while the stronger fraction of the | population ceased wiping moist brows and told each other all around that the relief was large and elegant. And it was, too, Capt. Allen, the prediction officer at the Signal Office, de- serves the hearty thanks of the whole city for his noble efforts in behalf of the public com- fort. He said he would do it if he could and he has done it. The cool weather came last evening according to promise, kept up all night, to the great satisfaction of sleepers, and is still with us. This morning thermometers | around town registered from 10 to 15 degrees lower than they did yesterday, and for a while people found something else to talk about than the heat. There were afew people who complained because the change came so std- denly that they might catch cold, but such growlers were generally looked down upon and referred back to their thoughts and re- marks of yesterday and the day before. WILL STAY FOR A DAY OR TWO, The best of it all is that the relenting and now kind-hearted gentlemen of the weather burean promise us a continuation of this pleasant weather. In their report this morn- | ing they confidently announced cooler weather, with northeast winds.and it isa good deal cooler up to the northeast of us than it is here. The temperature has failen from 15 to 20 degrecsin New England and the middle Atlantic states and from 12 to 18 degrees in the} Ohio valley and Tennessee, Continued cool weather is promised for Friday, but for Satur- day—they should blush to tell the tale—rising temperature, followed by warmer on Sunday, a cause of all this future rising temperature es in A WARM WAVE that has started out in Dakota, where the mer- eury has risen from 14 to 18 degrees. This warm wave will extend over the upper lake region today and the lower lake region and = Qhio_ valley, reaching here Saturday and Sunday. It hoped, however. that the weather will not be repetition of the kind we had yesterday and Tuesday. It is evidently unsafe to prophesy continued cool weather this July, A GOOD COTTON cROP. Promising Conditions Reported by the Department of Agriculture. The statistical report for June of the De- H partment of Agriculture shows improvement in the status of cotton, the average of condi- tion having advanced from 88.8 to 91.4 since | the previous returns, There was generally an | exer of moisture until about the 10th of | June, ith fine weather since, giv- ing unity for destruction of grass and for thorough cultivation. On the Atlantic coast the crop is generally well advanced, while it is late in the southwest, where planting was delayed by overflows and by heavy raias, That which was planted early began to bloom from the i5th to the 25th, and in the southwest somo bolls are reported as early as the 20th. While the plant is in various stages of advance- ment, from the wide range of seeding, it is uow almost invariably in full vigor of growth, of good color and high promise, very free from. rust and free from worms except the weak in- “ocr jane first broods in the more southern it, ‘The present average of July condition has iigtst anceeded only cace Sn ths bast ve years, It is stated as follows by states: Virginia, 92; North Carolina, 95; South Carolina, 95; Georgia, 95; Florida, 91: Alabama, 95; Mississippi, 89; Louisiana, 86; Texas, 89; Arkansas, 89; Tennes- see, Nearly throughout the cotton area two or three weeks of dry weather is reported, but scarcely any injury from drought, Since the first of July heavy rains have been reported on the Atlantic coast. ———.—___ Interior Department The following official changes have been made in the Department of the Interior: Pension Office—Promotions: Mrs. Mary L.

This body adjourned early yesterday afternoon after deciding to mect in annual session at Savannah, Ga,, in August, 18) At night the seceders “painted the town red” with a band of music and thirty-five men in line.

Louisiana Legislators Say the Governor’s Siguature is Unnecessary. Baton Rove, La., July 10.—At alate hour last night the house received a message from the senate returning the lottery bill and veto thereon, in accordance with the report of the senate judiciary committec, which was like- wise transmitted. Mr. Shields of Orleans offered the follow: The senate having refused to consider the veto m e of the governor on house bill No. 214, | | “ es amendment to nears passed by requisite two-thirds majority of all the members elected to both houses, and, as the action of the senate denying the right or authority of the governor to veto a constitu- tional amendment is in entire accordance with the views of this house, that we heartily ee and concur in the action of the senate, adopt | their reasons as ours, and that the clerk of the house be instructed to deliver to the secre- tary of state for promulgation enrolled house bill No. 214, with acertified copy of the pro- ceedings of the house on the said bill, and to take the receipt of the secretary of state for the same. After filibustering by the antis until 12:30 a. m. the above was finally adopted by a vote of 61 to 27. ‘This disposes of the lottery question as far as the legislature is concerned. The New Orleans Prcayune this morning editorially says: ‘The rightot the governor to veto a proposed amendment to the constitution has been form- ally denied by the general assembly of Lou- lana. We believe ‘t this decision is solidily ased upon the constitution. tos taal NO CHINESE NEED APPLY. Judge Kibbey Says They Canvot Have the Benefit of Habeas Corpus.

Archbishop Ireland Thinks There Should be No Schools Without Religion. Sr. Pact, July 10.—Following is an abstract of Archbishop Ireland's address delivered this Morning at the educational convention: Archbishop Ireland said im substance—“T Will be permitted,” he began, “to make at once my profession of faith, I declare most un- tounded loyalty to the Constitution of my country, ire no favors, I claim no rights that are not in consonance with ite letter apd its spirit, The mghts which the Constitution allow I do claim, and im dog eo Lam but the truer aud more loyal American.” He says he upholds the parisi: school, but would have all schoois state schools, ‘To the child must be imparted inst:uction in no mean degree, that the man may earn for himself an hovest com- Petence and acquit himself of the dunes which Society exacts from him for its own prosperity and life. The imparting of thie imetrac- tion 1 primarily the function of the child's parent. The state intervenes whenever the family cannot or will not do the work that is needed. As things are tens of thousands of children might go uninstructed if je re mained solely in charge of the duty. The state must come forward as au agent of instruction, | else ignorance will prevail Indeed im the absence of state action there never was that universal instruction which we bave so nearly attained and which we deem necessary. In the absence of state action he believed universal instruction would never in any country be pos- sible. No tax is more legitimete than that for | Scboois, and it should be disbursed by state Oificers for this specitic purpose, IN FAVOR OF COMPULSORY EDUCATION. “1 unreservedly,” he said, “favor state awe making instruction compulsory.

There is dissatisfaction with the state school |asat present organized. The state school, it | is said, tends to elimination of religion from | the minds and the hearts of the youth of the country. This is my grieval ‘againet the | State ools of today. elieve me. my Protest- | aut fellow citizens, that Iam absoluvely sincere when I now declare that I am speaking | for the weal of Protestantism as |well as for that of Catholiciom I am a Catholic, of course, unflinching apd un- | compromising in my faith. But God forbid | that 1 desire to sce in America the ground which Protestantism occupics exposed to the chilling and devastating blast of unbelief. Let me be your ally in stemming the swelling tide of irreligion, the death kucll of Christian lite and Christian civilization, the fatal foe of soul and of country. The state school is non-religious, religion. ‘There 1s and there cau be no positive religious teaching where the principle of nou- | sectarianism rules. It follows then that the | child will grow up in the belief that religion is | of mmor importance and religious indifference will be his creed. The great mass of children receive no first lessons and attend no Sunday school, and the great mass of the cbil- dren of America are growing up without religion. ‘The state does not teach religion; but for the sake of its people and for its own sake it should permit and facilitate the acon of the church; but it hinders this action. Let the state look to itself. he mind which it pol- ishes is a two-edged sword—un instrument for good or an instrument for evil, It were fatal to polish it without the assurance that in all lukelibood it shall be an instrument for good. NO MORALS WITHOUT RELIGIOUS PRINCIPLES. You say this state school teaches morals, but morals without religious principles do not exist. There are differences amoug Christians, and Catholics would not inflict their belief. non-Catholics, nor should Protestantism be in- flicted upouCatholic children, Some campromise becomes necessary. Taxation without repre- Seutation is wrong, and while the minority pay school taxes ther beliefs should be coupecied. America is trying to divorce religion and the school, although reiigion pervades our system and the school was originally religious through and through. ‘HIS SOLUTION. As a solution of the difticulty I would perme- ate the regular state school with the religion of the majority of the children of the land, be it as Protestant ay Protestantism can be, and I | would do as they do in England, pay for the | secular instruction given in denomimational schools according to results. Apother plan: I would do as Protestants and Catho- |lics in Poughkeepsie and other places in our own country have agreed to do. to the great satisfaction of their citizens and the great advancement of educational mterests. In Poughkeepsie the city school board rents the building formerly used as schools, aud from the hour of 9am, to that ot 3 p.m, the school as in every particular @ state school, no religious instruction coming | between the hours named and the school being in charge of the city school board, In couclusion, I protest against the charge | that the schools of the nation have their ene- | mies among the Catholics, The Catholics are loyal to the country and demand the Christian state school, —— A Famine in Tokio.
