THE FEMALE EMPLOYES WANT $2 PER DAY. Mr. Blair presented a memorial from the female employes of the Government Printing Office, asking that they be paid not less than $2aday. Referred to the committee on ap- propriations, THE PROHIBITION RESOLUTION. Mr. Plumb’s resolution, directing the com- mittee on rules to prohibit the sale of spirit- ous, vinous or malt liquors in the Senate wing of the Capitol. was taken up. Mr, Blair moved to amend the resolution by inserting after word “liquors” the words “and their use as a beverage. In the absence of Mr. Butler,who had offered an amendment directing the daily search of committee rooms and other apartments, the matter went over till tomorrow. THE TARIFF CLOSURE MEMORANDUM. ‘The memorandum offered yesterday by Mr. Aldrich fixing the time for consideration of and voting on the tariff bill was presented, the presiding officer stating that unanimous con- sent was asked for having it entered as an order of the Senate. Objection was made by Mr. Morgan and other democratic Senators to having the memorandum take the shape of an ‘order of the Senate,” and after an interchange of opinion on that point Mr, Aldrich withdrew that form and confined his motion to a re- quest for unanimous consent to the memo- randum, MR, PLUMB SUGGESTED that there was something bebind the matter that was not perfectly apparent to the public. The solemn interchange of suggestions yester- day between the Senator from Rhode Island and the Senator from Maryland reminded him somewhat of the historic remark between the governor of North Carolina and the governor of South Carolina, {Laughter.] It recalled also the remark that two Roman augurs could not look in each other’s face without smiling. It was time (Mr. Plumb thought) that the cur- tain was rung down and the lights put out. AN AGREEMENT BAD BEEN MADE by which democratic Senators were to forego their opposition (or, at all events, ther de- bating opposition) to the tariff bill, which had been described as so utterly and abhorrently objectionable; and, of course, he presumed that that was in order, that something else might be had which was desirable to them, He would interpose no objection to the memo- random. AGREED TO UNANIMOUBLY. The memorandum was then agreed to by unanimous consent, CONFERENCE REPORT ON THE BUNDRY CIVIL BILL. ‘The conference report on the sundry civil appropriation bill was presented and read, ‘The paragraph in regard to reservoir sites, which segregates and reserves from entry all such sites heretofore made or hereafter to be made, was criticised by Mr. Sanders, who thanked the Senate conferees \tagesren?) for having sucrificed the intereats of the people of Montana to the insatiable maw of the House. DEFENDING THE SENATE CONFEREES. Mr, Allison defended the action of the Ben- ate conferees, and explained the extreme diffi- culty which they had encountered in dealing with the subject. He reviewed, briefly, the history of the irrigation survey, and spoke of the hostility which the first appropriation of $100,- 000 for the purpose met from every member of the Senate committee on appropriations, That appropriation had been made in the sundry civil appropriation bill in 1888, and the House had added to the item the legislation which had caused the wpole mischief (reserving from settlement the Tands within the arid regions). In view of that fact HE WAS AMAZED at finding the Senate now charged by the House with interpolating legislation in order to cure the great injustice and wrong that had been done by the House in 1888, when it was forced on the sundry civil bill, that important legislation depriving the people of the right and privilege of occupying the public lands in uenrly " one-third of the country. He avowed it as having been the intention of the Senate conferees to have the whole irriga- tion survey wiped out of existence as far as possible—not to have a vestige of it left. But they had been confronted by people who INSISTED THAT THE SURVEY SHOULD Go ON and should become a part of the settled and eee policy of the government, He egged Senators who thought that the Senate conferees bad fallen short of their duty in that regard to remember that the Senate conferees had been confronted with a determina- tion to preserve, protect and continue that survey, The result had been the provision now proposed to be inserted in the suudry civil bill, That provision was not what he would have wished it to be. It was not what the Senate conferees wished; but it was THE BEST SOLUTION THAT THEY COULD sEcURE. It was simply that the reservoir sites, located or selected under appropriations heretofore made, snouid be reserved, but he believed it to be the duty of the Secretary of the Interior to see to it that they were not unnecessarily lurge—that they should not cover (as one of them was stated in the report to cover) 382 square miles, The sits was at the head waters of the Missouri river aud had been selected with the idea of the diversion of the water of that river nearly thousand miles. Was there, Mr. Allison asked, a sane man who believed that such di- version would be made within the next century? ‘The Senate conferees, Mr, Allison added, had made plain and substantial progress in the direction of accomplishing that which the people of the new states so much desired, p eguiers was, he believed, so necessary to © growth and development of the country. They had yicided toa | adnitoergre made by House conferees to allow ouly 320 acres to be taken by eg ore person under all the land laws of the United States. The Senate con- ferees had entered on that domain reluctantly; but they had been obliged to enter on it order to secure an agreement. He thought that the Senate committee on public lands should take up the question of public lands and deal with it irrespective of that proposi- tion. MR, REAGAN DEFENDED THE PAST ACTION of Congress and of the director of the irriga- tion survey in the matter of reserving reser- voir sites from settlement, and said that, if it not been for that reservation, those would have been seized u pf Be omerees and syndicates, to the jury of the settlers, ‘MR, TELLER RIDICULED THE SOLICITUDE | expressed by Mr, Reagan for the people of the arid region, and said that it would have been more touching if that Senator ha@ not talked for two hours yesterday in favor of de- livering over the interests of the miners te Colorado with defending the American Lead Trust. If that Senator meant to be understood that he (Mr. Reagan) bad, knowingly, any connection with a trustor defended a trast such statement could only come from an un- trutbfuland malignant heart, He (Mr. Rea- gan) had no association with trusts, His course in Senate and throughout his life was his vindication on that subject. THE CONFERENCE REPORT AGREED TO. The vote was taken andthe conference re- porton the sundry civil appropriation bill was agreed to, _ THE TARIFF BILL was then (at2p.m.) taken up, the question being on the lead paragraph, to which Mr. Coke had offered an amendment to make the lead extracted from the silver ores free of duty, and Mr. Plumb had offered one reducing the me fl on lead ore and lead dross from 145 cents to three-fourths of a cent. Before proceedin, with that paragraph Mr. Plumb gave notice o} an amendment to the bill, which he would offer at the appropriate time.” ‘The “amendment was rosd It is (with some few modifications) the bill for reciprocity with Canada, introduced by Mr. Butterworth in the House of Representatives on February 6 last.; THE LEAD PARAGRAPH. Mr. Plumb then addressed himeelf to the lead Paragraph. If the proposition of the Finance Committee were to prevail and were to result as the Senator from Colorado (Mr. Teller autictpated it would, he said, add #33. a ton in value to all the lead purchased in the United States, and there bein: 170,000 long tons used here the additional yalue (and cost to the consumer) would be more than five millions a year. That was about the gross value of all the lead produced in Colorado. The Senator from Colorado in his remarks Yesterday had not only magnified his office, had magnified his people. He had said, with a little lonable buncombe, that the state of Colorado had made the state of Kansas what it was, HOUSE, Before the reading of the journal Mr. Mo- Clammy (N.C.) made the point of order that there was no quorum present. A call of the House was ordered and but 126 members re- sponded to their names. Mr. Payson (Ill.) offered a resolution for the arrest of absentees, pending which Mr. Enloe (Tenn.) moved an adjournment, The motion to adjourn was lost—yeus 38, nuys 125. The Speaker stated thut the clerk had ane nounced thet there ware 288 members pres- ent—more than a quorum. oneal epee under the call were dis- pensed with andthe journal was read and ap- proved. DISPUTE A8 TO THE ORDER OF BUKINESS. Mr. Brosius (Pa.) demanded the regular order and contended that the unfinished busi- noss was the Conger lard bill, the vote upon the Pasange of which Saturday was incon- clusive owing to the absence of « quorum. Mr. Baker (N.Y.), who was interested in o Senate bill on the Speaker's table, argued that business on the Speaker's table must first be pe of. Blount (Ga.) read the rule of the House pees the order of business, and said that it was ciear to him that unfinished business could not be disposed of until after the consideration of the business on the Speaker's table. But the Speaker had intimated that he would rule not only on this question, but also on the question as to whether under the special order the “lard” bill was the unfinished business. His judgment was that under the terms of that order THE HOUSE COULD NOT CONSIDER THE “LARD” BILL ny further. It was clear from the terms that today and tomorrow were devoted to the con- sideration of the ‘‘option" bill, The time as- signed to the “lard” bill had expired yesterday and its consideration could not be resumed at time. In support of his posi- tion he quoted from the decision made by Speaker Reed upon the copyright bill, In thet decision the Speaker said: “The chair is of the opinion that the day having expired which was allotted to that business, until another day is allotted to that committee (committee on judiciary) it will not be competent to act on that motion” (a motion relative to the copy- right bill). MR. BROSIUS SUGGESTED that in that case the entire special order had expired, Mr. Cannon (IIL) inquired whether the gen- tlemay from Georgia took the position that {h the pending case, when there was a. continuous special order which expired tomor- row, with the previous question and the yeas and nays ordered on a bill. that bill did not come up #8 anfiuished business. If he so held what, on the expiration of the special ordér, became of the matter in band? If that construction was right, would not the proposed legislution be lost under the rules of the House? Whereas, if it came up as unfin- ished business, it was in the power of the House to dispose of it. That construction ad- vanced legislation; the other construction put it out of the power of the House, under its rules, to reach or consider it, MR, BLOUNT CONTENDED that in the special order there was a distinct time given to each bill mentioned therein, and the time designated for the “lard” bill had ex- jired. a Bateorn (N.J.) thought that in view of the proceedings Saturday, when it it was intimated by the Speaker that the bill woula come up either Monday or Tuesday (on the strength of which intimation an adjournment was taken), it was not in good faith for the opponents pf the bill to raise the point that it was not untinished business, Mr. Frank (Mo.) remarked that there was nothing in the proceedings of Saturday that could act as an estoppel. Mr. Herbert (Ala. ) controverted the position that the “lard” bill had now the right of way. It had had its day in court and hed exhausted all the time allotted to it. NOT A CONTINUING ORDER, ‘Mr. Adams (IIL) argued that the rule giv- ing s certain number of days to the committee on agriculture was not a continuing order in the vense in which it was viewed by his col- league (Mr. Caunon). It expressly set apart cor- tain days for the consideration of certain meas- ures. Today was assigued to the “option” bill and the “lard” bill could not interfere with its consideration. THE LARD BILL “UNFINISHED BUSINESS.” Mr. Hatch (Mo.) heid the view that the “ard” bill was unfinished business, the previ- ous question having been ordered and the yeas and nays having been ordered on its pas- sage. In support of his view he quoted from the decision of Speaker Carlisle on the Oklahoma bill. In this caee the special order had expired and the Speaker had ruled that the bill came up, not by reason of the special order, but by virtue of the fact that © previous question hed been ordered. Mr. Crisp (Ga,) argued that the bill could not come up before the di ition of bills on the Speaker's table, even if it had been consid- ered in its regular order. It it could come up before the disposition of that business, why not before the reading of the Why not before prayer by the chaplain? If his memory served him aright the Speaker nad hagwewe ‘that Sa coming over Friday 1t sessions previous ques- tion ead could not be considered on Satur- the Fond du Lac reservauon. The Indians complained that the whites were treespassing on their timber lands and the Indian commie sioner ordered the work stopped at once. The company objected and kept at work. The la terior Department rendered an emphatic de cimon against the company, saying that the work could not lawfully proceed. Secretary Noble has instructed the Ludian commissioner to enforce the law to the letter, company quits work voluntarily the govera- ment will stop it and troops will be seut from Fort Snelling if the Judian police cannot carry out the order.

The Police in Readiness to Face the Stock Yards Strikers. Carcaao, August 26.—The outlook for trouble at the stock yards is serious and an outbreak among the striking switecbmen imminent. To guard against this danger Chief Mursh at 1) o'clock last night ordered all of the south side police force not patroling to report at the stock yards at midnight and every policeman in the city to hold himself in readiness for # call to duty in the strike district’ The lieutenants have charge of the men and are under the per- sonal supervision of Chief Marsh. The packers are the heaviest losers in the stock yards’ strike. while the switching asso- ciation is not particularly hit, except so far as the transfer charges for about 150 empty and as many loaded cars are concerned. One hun- dred and fifty car loads of “dead” freight means between $1,800 and $2,000 per car load each day to the packers, or a duily loss of 285,000. These figures were given by oue of the managers of the leading packers, and if they are correct the packers have lost during the four working days of the strike over #1,000,- 000. If the strike continues and the receipts of coal and ice are blocked the loss will ex- tend to the pork packing branch, which so far has suffered little or nothing. aN APPEAL Fou neti.
