INTRODUGES THE COLOR QUESTION. | | SENATE, The Senate met at 11 a.m. A petition was presented from the Southern States Colored Republican Association in favor of the passage of the election bill. Mr. Culiom offered a resolution (which was agreed to) requesting the President to trans- mit to the Senate all correspondence not al- ready submitted to Congress and now on file in the State Department touching the efforts made by the government to obtain a modifica- tion or repeal of the decree of the French gov- ernment of 1881 prohibiting the importation into France of American pork and kindred American products. TO KEEP WOOL AND HIDES OUT OF RECIPROCITY TREATIES, Mr. Mitchell offered a concurrent resolution, which was referred to the committee on finance, stating that the United States would hail with approbation any reciprocal arrange- ment, by treaty or otherwise, between the gov- ernment of the United States and the govern- ments of all or any of the South American or Central American states, whereby there shall be admitted to the ports of such nations, free from all national, provincial, municipal and other tariffs or taxes, the products of the United States, including flour, corn meal and other breadstuffs, preserved meats, fruits, hides, vegetables, cotton seed oil, rice and other provisions, all articles of food, lumber, furni- ture and all other articles of wood, agricul- tural implements and machinery, structural steel and iron and steel rails, locomotives, rail- way cars and supplies, street cars, refined petroleum and such other products of the United States as may be agreed upon, but declaring that it is not the sense of the United States that in any such treaty or reciprocal arrangement the ar- ticles of foreign wool or hides in any form should be admitted free into the ports of this country. And it declares that in any treaty or reciprocal arrangement that may be entered into, looking to the opening of such foreign ports the pee named, it is not the sense of the United States that the articles of wool or hides, produced in any of those countries, shall be admitted free of duty into the — of the United States, and it requests the President of the United States to omit in any such treaty or reciprocal arrangement with any such nation from the list of products of such countries to be admitted into the ports of the United States the articles of wool in any of its forms and also hides, Mr. Allison moved to include hides among the prohibited articles. Mr. Mitchell said that hides were included in his resolution. MR, MORGAN ON THE TARIFF BILL. The Senate resumed consideration of the tariff bill and was addressed by Mr. Morgan. He said that the pending bill bore more heavily on the laboring classes than on the capitalist class or an," other class, He had yesterday re- ferred to the fact that on the free list in the bill there was not one afticle that entered into the consumption of an ordinary laboring man, either in the way of food. raiment or shelter. He had asked the Senator from Iowa (Mr. Allison) if that were not the fact and he had got no answer. He would ask the same ques- tion again and again, and he knew that, when that Senator came to make one of those frank statements which he always made, he would be compelled to say that there was nothing provided on the free list for the laboring classes, Mr. Morgan went on to speak OF THE COLORED PEOPLE, who not being capitalists, manufacturers or skilled workmen could not possibly derive any advantage from protection and who yet had to bear the burdens which it imposed upon the people. He yielded to interruptions by Mr. Hawley, who said that in Alabama and other states col- ored men were being employed as skilled workmen in factories and foundries, and by Mr. Hour, who mentioned the case of the col- ored man who was selected recently by his fel- low students at Harvard University to deliver the valedictory, His response to Mr. Hoar was that the case which he mentioned was an exceptional one, somewhat akin to the case of “Blind Tom,” and bis response to Mr. Hawley was that what he (Mr. Morgan) had been trying to find out was whether any negro operatives were employed in northern factories. He also yielded to Mr. Vest, who presented an advertisement from the Springfield (Mass.) Fire and Marine Insurance Company, showing a prohibition to the agents against insuring houses occupied by negroes or negro churches or school houses, In reply toa remark by Mr. Hoar that that rohibition applied only to the southern states, r. Vest agserted that it applied to the whole country. ORITICISING THE BILL IN DETAIL. Mr. Morgan went on to criticise the bill in detail and to show how hard it would bear on the negroes of the south, He found, for in- stance, that in the case of agate buttons the negro had, under existing law, to pay $1.25 for one dollar worth of buttons, and that under the nding bill he would have to pay from two Solar io three dollars and a half for a dollar's wor! Mr. Aldrich said that the bill did not propose any change of the duty on agate buttons, ir. Morgan corrected his statement; but re- ferred to four other grades of buttons of which 8 dollar's worth would, under the ops bill, cost respectively €210, $1.75, $3.43 an $1.48. The negroes, he said, could use thorns, pieces of stick or four-penny nails to keep their clothes on them, but they preferred to have buttons, and there was no sense or justice in taxing them to such anextent. HOUSE, In the House after the appointment of con- ferees on the original package bill, the sundry civil bill was taken up and the consideration of the Senate amendments proceeded with, the irrigation clause being in order. Mr. Dockery (Mo.) favored such modification of the existing law as will permit the dried lands to be open to hi entry only, He advocated the proposition that the government should designate the reservoir sites, and that legislation be enacted to transfer those sites to the several states 80 as to prevent their being taken up by cor- Porations and syndicates, This view was con- curred in by Mr. Holman of Indiana and Mr. Sayors of Texas, and Mr. Perkins of Kansas and Mr. Carter of Montana advocated the adoption a el ‘Ginee) the Senate 3 we! penn He _— Tat sclation — now yn to m complaints made Got the existing law, which wan tenta- i gteatterall, acl Deed be union was down the Lee Jaw until there were some- thing to replace it DEFENDING MAJ.
