The Naval Engineer Corps Bill Passed in the Senate. THE ELECTION BILL DEBATE. SENATE, Immediately after the approval of the jour- nal the Senate, on motion of Mr. Hale, went into secret session, Which lasted but a few mo- ments. On motion of Mr. Stockbridge a resolution was adopted calling on the commissioner of fish and fisheries for a report as to the desira- bility of establishing a fish hatchery in north- ern New York near the St. Lawrence river. THE ENGINEER CORPS OF THE NAVY. In its rogular order, a bill eame up to termi- nate the reduction in numbers of the engineer corps of the navy. Mr. Morgan believed that the engineer corps should be increased in numbers, and he ho} hata measure to that effect would be hers w Mr. Chandler said that the subject of the in- crease of the corps was now being considered by the committee on naval affairs, and that pending that consideration it had been thought proper to bring in a bill preventing further de- crease in the corps. ‘The bill was passed. AGAINST CONTRACTION OF THE CURRENCY. Mr.Sherman, from the committee on finance, reported a bill providing against a contraction of the currency. Printed and recommitted. ‘THE TARIFF ACT AND TREATIES. Mr. Sherman called up the bill providing that the tariff act shall not be held to impede orimpair the force of treaties between the United States and other countries. Mr. Gorman suid that he would object to the consideration of the measure for the present ‘The tariff bill had been passed hastily, and thi proportion to construe its provisions should fully discussed. INFLICTING AN INJUSTICE ON TAWAr. Mr. Morgan regretted that the gentleman should make any objection. The United St: (by the hasty paseage of the tariff bill) was in- Aicting an injustice on Hawaii and doing itvelt an injustice by a formal breach of treaty. He desired to encourage still more intimate ar- rangement with Hawaii and he thought that the bill should be passed without delay. Mr. Harris was unwilling that the matter | should proceed in the absence of Mr. Black- burn, who, as one of the conferees on the tariff | bill, had called special attention to the fact that it would abrogate the Hawaiian treaty. Mr. Sherman said that while he felt sure that Mr. Blackburn would favor the bill he would not press it in his absence. The bill, therefore, went to the calendar. MR. COKE OPPOSES THE ELECTIONS BILE. The elections bill was then taken up and Mr. Coke addressed the Senate in opposition to it. It proposed, he'said, to thrust rudely aside the state authorities, which had for a century con- trolled elections, and to substitute for them an army of partisan supervisors and deputy mar- thals, who are to direct and control the regie. tration and polling of votes, and partisan re, turning boards to do the counting and certifi- cation of the result. Of course the bill involved the conclusion that the people of the severa! states were, for some reason, unfit to be trusted to hold in their own way elections for their Representatives in Congress, as they had al- ways heretofore been doing. ' Against the bill asa whole and in all its details and especially against its libellous reflection on the capacity the people of the States for self-government and its audacious assumption that all the honesty, virtue and intelligence found: in the country'were possessed by federal officials he entered his most earnest protest. Democratic Senators, Mr. Coke said, proposed to have a full and free discussion of the Dill to the end that the American people shall be informed of the startling and radical departure proposed to be inaugurated in the character of the govern- ment. If the dictates of a political faction that happened to hold possession of all the depart- ments of the government (formulated in secret caucus) were to registered in the statute book without debate, without discussion, without examination; if the rules and usages and methods of procedure that had for 100 years obtained in the Senate were to be overthrown, and if neither house of Congress was to be any longer a deliberative body, it was at least proper that the fact be proclaimed, so that the people might be made aware of the purpose and might pass Judgment on the po- tical party responsible for it. IN FEAR OF THE BILL. Mr. Cullom addressed the Senate. He con- fessed some disappointment that the committee on privileges andelections had deemed it neces- sary to report u bill of such great length. He bad hoped that the present stperviser law might be amended” withont great difficulty, and without adding very many new sections to : but, as the committee had given the subject long and patient study he accepted the Dill as the best that could be framed to meet the evils complained of, with the understanding that he should favor sch amendments as might be offered and might meet his approbation. HOUSE. On motion of Mr. Goodnight (Ky.) the Sen- ate bill was passed authorizing the bridging of the Green and Barren rivers, Kentucky, by the Bowling Green and Northern Railroad Com- pany. ; BILLS PASSED. In the morning hour the pending measure wae Senate bill amending the interstate com- merce act by providing for the taking of depo- sitions by notaries public. The bill was passed. Yeas, 215; nays, 5, Mr. Baker (N.Y.) called up and the House Senate bill authorizing the town of lbany, Oregon, to construct » bridge across the Willamette river. ‘ ‘A Dill was also for the construction of a bridge across the Duck river by the county of Humphreys, Tenn. 4 Mr. Baker then called up the bill authorizi: the construction of funnel under the waters of ‘THE SHIPPING BILL. Pending action the morning hour expired. Mr. Farquhar of New York, as chairman of the committee on merchant marine and fisheries, moved that the House go into committee of the whole for the consideration of the Senate bill to the American marine engaged in the trade on an equality with that of other pate, with the Howe ra itute therefore. DID THE COMMITTER AUTHORIZE IT? A contention started by Messrs. Springer (11) and Blount (Ga.) arose as to whether Mr. Farquhar had the suthorization of his commit- tee to make this motion. nea cae nee pate ated, and the latter gentleman called for a ie tte etaein the committee. TWO CENTS. promptly suppressed by the Speaker, who then recognized Mr. Farquhar, to make a motion that the House go into committee on the whole on the state of the union. The motion was agreed to—yeas, 126; nays, 108. Mr. Burrows (Mich.) taking the chair. DISCUSSION AS TO THE ORDER OF BUSINESS, Mr. Farquhar then moved that the House Proceed to the consideration of the Senate bill to place the American merchant marine on an equality with that of other nations. Mr. Springer made the point of order that the motion was not in order; but that the com- mittee must proceed to the consideration of ap- Propriation bills e chairman ruled that the motion was in order, for the reason that the rules gave the committee authority to decide what measure it would take up. APPEAL FROM THE DECISION OF THE CRATR. Mr. Springer took an appeal from the decision. In support of his appeal he argued that the appropriation bills must first be disposed of. If it was held that any m call up any bill on the calen bills for the carrying on of the government could at any time be set aside and defeated. This ruling was a direct departure from the precedents of the House for 100 years. Mr. Taylor (IIL) inquired whether the gen- fleman ave this opinion speaking as the Speaker of the next House. SPEAKER OF THE NEXT HOUSE. Mr. Springer replied that he spokeas a mem- ber of this House. ‘The next House would not be troubled by these rules. Mr. Blount (Ga.) took a diverse position from that held by Mr. Springer. When the subject of changing the rules had been under consid- the appro} ag was now pre: a THE SENATE SITUATION, ‘The Cloture Rule, the Proposed Financial Legislation and the Elections Bill. The action of the caucus last night does not appear to have smoothed the way to any extent for the elections bill. A determined effort will be made to secure a change of the rules, bug this does not indicate any advantage for the elections bill. The committee on rules will have a meeting today. Their purpose is to report « resolution tomorrow for the application of cloture in the Senate during the short session. sk for its immediate consideration. m will be snfticient to send it over y ithere are a number of Sena- tors ready with an objection. Therefore the i probably come up for considera- tion on Saturday, displacing the elections bill. THE CLOTURE RULE MAY BE DEBATED INDEFI- NITELY. As yet there has been no determination ached to adopt revolutionary means of changing the rules, therefore the resolution is subject to indefinite digeussion. The demo- crats will fight against "the change with all their might and there will be no disposition to hasten the debate to a conclusion. To stick to the consideration would iy delay action on the important financial legisla- tion. Therefore it is proposed that, after the resolution has been discussed for a while, it be laid aside and the financial bill be taken up. WHAT WILL THE DEMOCRATS DO? If, when the time comes for a vote tobe taken on the latter measure, the democrats at- tempt unnecessary and unreasonable delay, the cloture question will be again taken up and, strengthened by the anxiety of the’ silver men for prompt —legisla- tion, they would hope to secure a change of rules, by whatever means might be moceaansy. Hf the Goss mmcorats o not attempt to delay the passage o! nagcial bill it is able that the reapportionment bill <a taken up before the change of rules is again considered. It -may — be. to adopt ths new rale in order to a vote on that measure, but it is not likely to the case. By the e these measures are di of there will probably be but little time for action on anything but the appropriation bills and two or three other measures it is considered important should be disposed of before this Congress expires. THE ELECTIONS BILL. It is not improbable that, first or last, the change of rules will be effected, but the change is not apt to benetit the elections bill in any way. A number of men who are in favor of a change of rules, applying cloture during the short session of every Congress, are opposed to the elections bill ini its present shape. CAUCUS ACTION NOT BINDING ON THE FINANCE BILL. ‘The republicans are not yet out of the woods with their financial bill. There are s number of very positive and very contradictory state- ments as to the effect of — the caucus action. It is asserted on excel- lent authority that the action of the caucus was not binding, and it is asserted that the financial Dill will not be favorably reported from the finance committee. It is understood that there are Senators on both sides of the silver question who will oppose the bill. ATTITUDE OE THE SILVER MEX. Moreover the silver men who are willing to accept the compromise will be greatly embarrassed when the democrats propose to amend the bill by a provision for free coit It is probable that very few of them will able to see their way clear to a vote against such an amendment, and there is the i- Dility at any time of the whole plan going to pieces. It is not at all improbable that in the end a free coinage bill will pass the Senate, guano! ee ae eg THE COLUMBIAN EXPOSITION. ‘The President's Proclamation Not Likely to Be Issued This Week. ‘The President has been #0 busy with other matters this week that he has not been able to complete his examination of the papers in the case of the world’s Columbian exposition. Representative Butterworth had an interview with him on that subject this morning and pointed out the importance of speedy action. ‘The President has frequently expressed his deep interest in the matter and has promised ments have been fully met. It is known that the only thing now in doubt is the suficiency of the subscription fund and the Preeident is inclined to be as liberal on that point as a fair interpretation of the law will allow. As the reparation of the ion, will require Tome time even after the President has de- cided that it can \y issue, which is not the case as yet, it looks now as the issuance of the will be at least beyond the present week.
