The general disposition of the democrats appears to be to let the measure go throngh to completion as smoothly as possible, thelr position of opposition being clearly de- fined. Bat when the bill first passed the House thero were many propositions to amend pend- ing, made by republicans, who were doing a SENATE. Mr. Ingalls presented a petition from citizens of Missouri asking for the passage of the federal election bili. Many petitions were presented for and against the passage of the compound lard bill, At the suggestion of Mr. Edmunds it was agreed that onc hour be given each day (after the routine morning business) to bills on the calendar unobjected to. Mr, Quay gave notice that tomorrow after the reading of the journal he would ask the Senate toconsider the resolutions ig respect to the memory of Mr, Samuel J, Randall. BILLS PASSED. On motion of Mr. Washburn House bill to authorize the construction of a bridge across the Mississippi river at Winona, Minn., was taken from the calendar and passed (with a verbal xmendment). The calendar was then taken up and the fol- lowing bills (among others) were passed: " Senate bill nuthorizing the restoration of the uame of ‘Thomas H. Carpenter, late cap- tain seventeenth United States infantry, to the rolls of the army and providing that he be placed on the list of retired officers, The Senate bill referring to the Court of Claims the claim of Snowden & Mason for fur- ther compensation in connection with the Building of monitors, ‘The Senate bill to restrain the use and sale of opium in the District of Columbia and the territories. The Senate bill authorizing the appointment voted for the bill with the made later on. Some of the changes made by the Senate were im line with some of these amendments, and republicans who favor them propose to move concurrence by the House be- fofe the bill is sent to conference. There is a cana to have the amendment putting binding twine on the irce list concurred in by the House at once, and there are other amend- ments in which republicans will move conear- rence at this time. The proposition to concur in the free twine amendment will probably ve supplemented by a proposition for free cotton ties advanced by the democrats, THE FREE-SUGAR MEN in the House are greatly dissatisfiod with the Senate amendments to that schedule, and they are not contegt to include this schedule in the merely formal non-concurrence which will be given to amendments in general. They say that the subject must be discussed in the committee of the whole and the House conferces be especially instructed to insist, to the end, upon free sugar np to No. 16 Dutch standard. Some of them wait to get a chance to express some views they have on the subject. believing, as they do, that the schedule as amended by ti WANTED (fat WANTED (Hovsna). WANTED (Lors).

THE RAILROAD LAND GRANT FORFEITURE BIL. The hour assigned to the calendar having elapsed the conference report on the railroad land forfeiture bill was taken up and Mr, Mor- gan continued his argument in opposition to it. SENATOR M'PRERSON INDISPOSED. During the argument Mr. Gorman presented 8 telegram received by him from Senator Mc- Pherson stating that he was indisposed and would not be able to actas a member of the conference committee on the tariff bill, and asking to be excused from service. ‘The re- quest was complied with, and Mr. Voorhecs was appointed a conferee in place of Mr. Me- Pherson, ting upon free sugar ts to make this ry article of food cheaper to the con- he Senate amendment of the sched- Ule, taxing all sugar above 13 Dutch standard, gives the refiners their raw sugar free,but does not let in a pound without duty which is in a condition to be used on the table. ‘Tho free sugar men are so dissatisfied with this that they do not propose to leave it to the uncertainty of a conference without special instructions that the House proposition be maintained. They regard the reciprocity amendment, as it was framed by the finance committee, as a matier of little moment and there will probably be no serious objection -to agreeing to it, ‘Mr. McKinley will probably try still farther to obviate the necessity of going into commit- tee of the whole by agreeing to act in confer- ence, with an understanding of the wishes of the House without formal instructions. THE MEETING OF THE WAYS AND MEANS COM- MITTEE this morning was of an informal character. At the hour of the meeting the tariff bill had not reached them. Half an hour later it was re- ceived by the House. The subject was discussed in @ general way, the members of both ies agreeing ‘that the bill should come to the committee and be dis- posed of as soon as possible. There ‘was no: disposition to delay manafested.. The representatives of each party said they would talk with their associates and see what could be done to basten action on the bill, The re- publicans were notin a position to make any promises, however, on uccount of the insist ance of members of their party that the bill ie be considered in the committee of the whole, no accounts are kept with mail subscrip- tions. 2p Goverxment Recetets Topay.—Internal rev- enue, $331,908; customs. $745,497.
