COMMITTEE TO WAIT ON THE PRESIDENT. The reading of yesterday's journal having been dispensed with Mr. Sherman offered a resolution for the appointment of a committee of two Senators to join a like committee on the Part of the House to wait upon the President of the United States and inform him that un- less he shall have any further commmnication tomake the two houses are ready to adjourn, THE LABOR BILL. Mr. Binir—I desire before adjournment to call up the labor bill and have action upon it, aud I would not like any resolution to be adopted that would interfere with the disposi- tion of that bill. Mr. Sherman—The resolution looks merely to.asking the President whether he has any farther communication to mak Mr. Blair—But it also conming a statement that the two houses are ready to adjourn. I insist that the Senate shall consider this bill. The Vie President—Is there objection to the present consideration of the resolution? _ Mr. Blair—I object if its consideration is to interfere with the consideration of the labor bill, Mr. Edmunds—The resolution will not inter- fere with your motion, . a Mr. Blair—It concludes with an intimation that we are ready to adjourn, The Vice President—Does the Senator from New Hampshire object? Mr. Blair—I withdraw my objection on the intimation that the resolution will not inter- fere with the labor bill. THE RESOLUTION AGREED TO. The resolution was agreed to, and Messrs, Sherman and Harris were appointed the com- mittee on the part of the Senate. EXTRA PAY FOR NIGHT WORK. Mr. Manderson, from the committee on printing, reported back the House bill to re- vise the wages of certain employes in the Gov- ernment Printing Office with a substitute pro- viding that the pay of all the employes en- gaged exclusively on night work, between 5 p-m. and 8 p.m., shall be 20 per cent m addi- tion to the amount paid for day Jabor, end TOO LATE FOR THE BILL, TO PASS. Mr, Edmunds moved to proceed to executive business. Mr. Blair appealed to the Senator from Ver- mont to withdraw that motion in order that the labor bill might be taken up. Mr. Edmunds—I should be most glad to join with my friend from New Hampshire in passing ® suitabie bill, but itis perfectly impossible that such a bill can become a law at this time, Tt would havo to go back to the House of Rep- resentatives, which is probably somewhat short in the number of its members. Mr.-Blair—I refer to the bill already passed by the House at this session providing for the reimbursement of arrears for labor performed under the cight-houc la Mr. Edmunds—I understand what the bill is; but it has been amended in the Senate, or ought to be, in order not to make mere gifts to people who, with a perfect understanding, agreed to do a certain amount of work for a certain amount of pay, and got it. Other people who acted under moral or other coer- cion are really entitled to consideration, Mr. Biair—I was proposing to substitute the Senate bill of last session for the House*dill. Mr. Edmunds—And the result of that would be, of course, a question between the two houses, and it 18 impossible to have it consid- ered ut this session. I must therefore insist on my motion, IN SECRET SESSION, The motion was agreed to and the Senate proceeded to the consideration of executive business, CONFERENCE REPORT AGREED To. Legislative business was resumed at 1:20. A conference report on House bill in refer- ence to contracts for surveying public lands was presented and agreed to. THREE VETOES. The Vice President laid before tho Senate three veto messages from the President, two of them on bills referring to the Court of Claims, the claims of Charles I’.

The Senate then tookarecess for half an hour, till 2:15. ANOTHER CORRECTION IN THE TARIFF BILL. After the close of the recess a message was received from the House asking concurrence in a resolution to make another correction in the tariff bill on paragraph 318. A consultation on the subject at once took place between Messrs, Allison, Aldrich, Ed- munds and Gorman, and at its conclusion the concurrent resolution was laid before the Senate. Mr. Edmunds said that he was unwilling to legislate on the tariff in that way. The bill should be allowed to stand as it is, e ought to be notitied. Mr. Aldrich—I think that the concurrent res- olution, in effect, places the Pe as the conference committee intended it. His own fecling about it was that the concurrent reso- lution should be adopted. Hie understood, of course, thatit was utterly impossible to legislate in such a way. or to di- rect clerks in such a way, except by unani- mous consent; and if the Senator from Vermont or any other Senator objected he certainly should. not press the resolution. Mr. Edmunds—lI insist on my objection, but I think that the House ought tobe notified that we do not propose to legislate in that way. ENOUGH’S AS GOOD AS 4 FEAST. Mr. Cockrell—I submit that we have had about enough tariff legislation, and I hope that the Senator from Rhode Island will not press the resolution, ® Mr, Aldrich—I have already said that I will not do so if there is objection to it Mr. Cockrell—I bope that the Senator will not put it in that way and will not compel Sen- ators to object to it. That is not exactly tai. If changes are tobe made in the bill in this way I would like eye lay sechbde peter ye made. and probably other Senators would to offer iments, This would open the whole door, ‘Mr. Hiscock—I the concur- resolution is in accord with the agreeme! rent resolu nt committee, of the conference Fred.

HOUSE, In his prayer this morning the chaplain re- ferred to the approaching end of the session and invoked the;Divine blessing upon the mem- bers during the vacation, Before the reading of the journal Mr. Breck- inridge (Ky.) raised the point of order that there was no quorum present. While waiting a quorum a message from the Senate announced the agreement to the confer- ence report on the tariff bill, Shortly before 1 o'clock Mr. aggre (Ky.) withdrew his point, but it was immedi- ately renewed by Mr. Kilgore (Tex.) But a few minutes afterward Mr. Kilgore re- lented and withdrew his point, and the journal was read. CORRECTIONS IX THE ENROLLED TARIFF PILL. Mr. McKinley (Ohio) called up the House concurrent resolution directing the clerk to number consecutively the paragraphs of the enrolled tariff bill, with Senate amendments thereto. The arvendments were agreed to. On motion of Mr. McKinley concurrent reso- lutions were agreed to directing the clerk to make a further correction in the punctuation of the enrolled tariff bill, TO WAIT UPON THE PRESIDENT. Mr. McKinley offered a resolution for the ap- pointment of » committee of three members to join asimilar cotmmittee on the part of the Senate to wait upon the President and inform him that Congress is ready to adjourn if he has no further communication to make. Adopted. AX OBJECTION. Mr. Grosvenor (Ohio), from the committee on rivers and harbors, reported back a resola- tion directing that committee to examine aud report without delay whether the navigation of the Ohio river at and above Cincinnati is impeded by reason of the construction of ware uosc, wharves and docks by private individu- als and corporations, Mr. Owens (Ohio) objected to its considera- tion. AN ANXIOUS DAY IN THE HOUSE. How a Point of No Quorum Caused Alarm Among the Members. A deep anxiety came upon the majority of the House this morning when immediately after the prayer a point of no quorum was made by Mr. Breckinridge of Kentucky. Members have regarded an adjournment today as as- sured and most of them have already started for their homes, There was s very small attendance this morning. There has been some talk of insist- ing upon the presence of a quorum when the enrolled tariff bill is laid before the House with the signature of the Speaker, but the notion has met with general disfavor and it was gen- erally believed that the point of no quorum would not be made, Every preparation was complete for an ad- journment this afternoon and there was con- sternation in the House when Mr. Breckinridge question. Mr. McK: said that the only object he in view - was to prevent the ing , through of a jot of measures without and that he consideration, was not aiming at the tariff bill. He refused, however, to give any assuranve that he would withdraw the point when the tariff bill was brought in. pagar tego concert ofaction on an were as much an- HIS FUTURE PERILED. —_—__.

Significance of Today's Elections im Georgia. Artayta, Ga., Oct. 1.—The state election im Georgia today is for governor, state officers and menibers of the general assembly. But one ticket 1s before the people for governor and state officers. The republicans after full con- sultation decided against the advisability of putting out a state ticket, and with the excep- tion of four or five legislative candidates will not be heard of. ‘The election, however, is not devoid of sen- sational featu The legislatare to be choses will have the election of a United States Sen- ator to si d Joseph E. Brown. For thie vacancy Gov. John B. Gordon is» candidate. At first it appeared as if he would have ne opposition, but in a moment of personal elston he gave offense to the Farmers’ Atliance and the result is a strong effort to defeat his sena- torial aspirations, The fight today therefore will be between Gov. Gordon and the alliance, If Gov. Gordon wins it means the death of the alliance in the 6: If the alliance wins it means @ new element in national politics, for the purpose of the allinnce men is to bring their principles before the people of the Union for settiement, Besides the election of state officers and mem- bers of the legislature two amendments to the state constitution will be voted on. One of these amendments extends the benefits of the state pensions to the widows of confederate soldiers and the other allows reading and refer ence of bills by title when introduced. UNDER FALLING WALLS. Twelve Firemen ‘Seriously Injured at a Fire in Chicago, Curcaco, Oct. 1.—A fire of uncertain origin started in the two-story and basement brick building at 173 South Canal street shortly after 11 o'clock last night and twelve firemen were seriously injured by the falling of the roof, The following are the injured: Richard Haverson, engine No. 17, face burned and in- ly hurt; Charles Klexton, engine 17, bead y bruised; Capt. Wm. Carey, eugine No. face burned, shoulder sprained; Andrew elson. engine 17, internal injuries, face and hands badiy burned, will probably die; Silves- ter Higgins, engine 17, head cut; Wm. Keilly, engine 17, feet crushed and face burned Daniel Toomey, engine 17, internally mjure: Capt, Sweeney, engine 10, hands and face burned; John Riley, engime 10, shoulder broken; John Corcoran, engine 10, back sprained and face burned; Johu Crotty, track 1, face burned and arm sprained. Of the in- jured, Nelson's is probably the only fatal case, The building was occupied on the second floor and basement by 8 Franklin & Son as a pic- ture frame factory and on the main floor by the Mills Railway Gate Company. ‘The tire originated on the second floor among alot of rubbixh. It is supposed to have been the result of spontaneous combustion, Ow to the inflammabie nature of the contents of the building the fire spread with wonderful rapidity. Before the fire department arrived the fire was almost beyond control. The entire basement was in flames and the first and second floors were burning. The men of engine companies No, 17 and No. 10 were sont to the rear to fight the fire from that int, They entered the building and had to work when an explosion of naptha, it is sup- pose, occurred on the second floor. ‘With this the roof and floor came down with a terrible crash, burying the firemen m the ruins. A score of firemen rushed to their rescue, and in less than half an hour the ruins had been torn away and all the victims saved. DISCHARGED WITHOUT NOTICE. Reductions in the Force of the Adams . Express Company. New York, Oct. 1.—A tie-up of the Adams Express Company is not improbable in this city on account of the discharge of 75 employes on Saturday, Some received no notification until they came to get their pay, and none knew of what was coming more than three days before the discharges took effect. The discharged men feel very bitter over their summary expulsion. The same system of re- duction is going into effect wherever the Adams express reaches. Men have been dis- missed at Chicago, Cincinnati and elsewhere, Said a discharged employe yesterda: “When we asked why so many of us were dis- charged we were told that business being dull economy demanded a reduction of expenses, That excuse is too absurd. In October every express company has all the business it can haudie, The men discharged are old hands who earned good wages. Green hands at small wages are to be given our places, It is not un likely that out of pupaiey for ts the m retained may go out and tie up the business.” Crxeryyati, Oct. L—Menager Weir of the Adums Express Company, partly denies the roports of sweeping reductions in the person- nel and salaries in the company. The salaries are not to be reduced, he says. A slight re- duction in the force employed will be made, however, FOR THE FAMINE STRICKEN, An Appeal Issued for Food and Money for the Suffering in Ireland. New Yorx,Oct. 1.—The appeal of the Ameri- can committee for the relief of famine in lre- land has been issued. It is based upon careful data gathered from various sources in the country which finds itself again face to face with the grim specter of famine.

The personal of the committee is as follows: Chairman, Gen, James Grant Wilson; chairmen, ex-President Hayes, ex-President Cleveland; vice chairmen, James George Ehret, Elliott F. Shepari tors. After describing in vivid terms the ex- isting and threatened distress, im address concludes: :. “Contributions of money maybe remitted direct to the New York Sun (the committee's treasurer) or through any reputable bank, banking house or trust company.
