The agricultural appro- priation bill was also reported with a like notice. SENATOR KYLE'S CREDENTIALS. ‘The credentials of James Henderson Kyle as Senator from South Dakota, beginning March 4¢replacing Mr. were ted and « piecing 1 Moody), presented THE POSTAL SUBSIDY BILL. Mr. Frye called up the House amendment to the tonnage subsidy bill and moved to non- conéur in the amendment and that the con- ferees asked by the House be granted. Mr. expressed the wish that the House amendment be concurred in rather than that the danger of a more objectionable bill from the conference committee be incurred. The subsidizing of ships (he held) was not going to increase commerce. The only way to increase either imports or exports was to remove the shackles of the tariff. The bill was, simply and nakedly, a gift to the ship owners of the coun- Ir. Morrill moved to concur in the House amendment. Mr. Vest expressed himself opposed to manner of subsidies and stated his objections tothem. The sndsidy did not ‘apply merely to vessels to be built hereafter. The Red Star line with four American-built ships running from Philadelphia would receive a large subsidy without expending a single dollar even for re- pairs, and the Pacific Mail Company would re- ceive $600,000 a yea: without auy further ex- penditure. These companies were aiready making money without any aid from the treasury. But af the riek of appearing inconsistent he was willing (if it would terminate the matter and Prevent bringing worse) to agree to the House amendment. Mr. Cameron stated that as to the Red Star line it had been doing business at a loss. ‘MR. M'PHERSON TALKS ABOUT GAG LAW. ‘Mr. McPherson characterized the as the most extraordinary one that he had ever seen attempted in the Senate. It was the ap- plication of gag law in the most offensive form. The Senate was not to be permitted to yote on the proposition. It had never been be- fore the Senate; and still it was to be referred toaconference committee that would make a report which would have to be accepted or re- jected without amendment. He made the point of order that it was in- competent to commit the bill toa conference committee. ‘The Vice President overruled the point of order. An appeal was tuken from the ruling, and the was (on motion of Mr. Frye) lnid on the table without a division. ‘The ques- tion being on Mr. Morrili's motion to concur ‘Mesers. Cockrell, Harrisand Reagan stated their intention to vote ist it, and Mr. Vest stated his intention to vote for it, because otherwise it was certain that the conference report would make a worse bill. ‘TWO THINGS NECESSARY TO REVIVE OUR SHIPPING. Mr. Frye stated that in his judgment two things were absolutely necessary for the revival of the American merchant marine—one was swift certain communication for the mails between the United States and other countries. In providing for that swift and certain com- munication ships would be provided a3 auxiliaries to the navy; and for that Great Britain? was paying #5, ship outside of her mail contracts. By the postal subsidy Dill these two things were pro- vided for—swift mail communication and the furnishing of auxiliaries for the navy, by which millions of dollars would be saved. There was no doubt about that. ‘The House amendment would do that. But one other thing was absolutely necessary, and that was that American freighiing ships shonld be put in some way or other on level with the freighting ships of the world. Today every American freighting steamer was competi (without any protection) with ‘the vesscls of Spain, Italy, Germany and Frarce, them’ having heavy bounties and heavy subsidies. Even with a postal «ubsidy act the United States could not help its merchant marine because of that competition. A six- teen-knot ship was not a freight ship. A twenty-knot ship could not carry freight. A twenty-kno: ship required 300 tons of coal a yand 155 men to handie her. A sixteen- it ship required 200 tons of coala day and 120 men. No such, ship could possibly compete with tenor twel¥e-knot ships in carrying freight. He believed that i the House emendment were non-concurred in and if the bill were sent to conference pro} sitions could be made that would be acceptable to both sides of the chamber. i had been made that mage (as passed by the Senate) took in sailing vessels (already built) away down to the smallest one— all of abundred thousand of them. A ition and send the matter to a committee of confer- ence, where there could be another trial. FAVORS THE HOUSE AMENDMENT. Mr. Carlisle expressed himself in favor of agreeing to the House amendment lest a worse t and lettin ference committee might be enacted that would commercial marine of the country.

Mr. Sherman offered a resolution electing Senator Manderson (Neb.) as President pro tempore to hold offjce duririg the pleasure of the Senate, and Mr. Gorman offered a reaolu- tion tendering the thanks of the Senate to Mr. Ingalls for “the eminently courteous, digni fied, able and absolutely impartial manner in which he has presided over ite deliberations and performed the duties of President pro tempore.” ‘MR. MANDERSON SWORX IN AS PRESINENT PRO Tex. Both resolutions were agreed to, and the oath of office was administered by the Vice President to Mr. Manderson, who was escorted to the desk by Mr. Ingalls. The Vice President laid before the Senate the following communication: THANKS FROM ADMIRAL PORTER'S FAMILY. Wasnrxorox, D.C., Feb. 28, 1891. Hon. Levi P. Morton, Vice President of the United States and President of the Senate: Sir: The sincere thanks of the family of Admiral Porter are tendered to the Senate of the United States for the resolutions passed on the 14th inst.

Mr. Frye contradicted that assertion. Mr. McPherson inquired how many of the Pacific mail ships were wooden versels. Mr. Frye—There is no authority in the bill just passed for the employment of any wooden ships. ir. Morgan moved to amend Mr. Frye's amendment by inserting @ proviso that the Postmaster General, may, employ. any ships that are owned exclusively by citizens of United States. Mr. Plumb against Mr. Morgan's . Morgan argued in support amendment and at Cie anted Me.
