Also Senate bill to authorize the building ofa bridge across the Arkansas river at Van Buren, Ark. TRADE RELATIONS WITH CANADA. Mr.Payne, in presenting petitions in favor of the resolutions offered by Mr. Carlisle early in the session as to trade relations with Cunada, expressed the opinion that the resolutions should have been referred to the commitice on relations rather than to the select com- mittee on trade relations with Canada. Mr. Hoar. chairman of the latter committee, explained that the delay in acting upon the resolution had been due to the absence (through illness) of Messrs. Butler and Yoor- hees and to the engagements of Messrs. Allison and Hale in the committee on appropriations. He promised that there would soon be a meet- ing of the select committee, although it was not very likely, he said, that action would be taken by the Senate ona matter of such very grave im- rtance at this short session. He bad been informed that it would be debated very ex- tensively when it came up in the Senate. The committee would therefore get the matter ripe for action by the Senate as soon as it could. Mr. Carlisle thought it probably true that it would be impossible to dispose of such a sub- ject at the present Congress. Bat he would be very much gratified -. 80 would a great many of the pe: the United States) to have a , one way or the other.

VANCE’S CREDENTIALS. ‘The credentials of Mr. Vance for his new senatorial term, beginning March 4 next. were presented by Mr. Ransom and placed on file. ‘THE REVENUE MARINE BILL. The bill for the adjudication of claims aris- ing from Indian depredations having been taken up as the “unfinished business,” Mr. Gray appealed to the Senate for an evening ses- sion for a consideration of the bill to trasefer the revenue marine from the Treasury Depart- ment tothe Navy Department. He of the bill as one of great public concern and asked unanimous consent to have it taken up and considered in the evening session. Mr. Paddock suggested that the request be made at later hour of the day. He hoped that it would not be insisted on now. ‘Mr. Chandler—Why not? Mr. Edmunds—I object to it. Mr. Paddock—I object because we cannot tell how long it will take to conclude the con- sideration of the pending bill.

Deprive = and silver of ete money owe boop would be worth very little as com; lead and other useful metals. bie sie PANICS AND THEIR CAUSES.

Warner was not paid for his services, and that his intercat in the silver question was en- tirely impersonal, but he should decline to an- swer auestions relating to the organization. He hadgivon his testimony in this matter before the silver pool investigating committee. Mr. Newlands said that he did not indulge in any of this idle talk about pools and money or- ganization and corrupt influences on either side.
