Mr. Dockery replie hore are tied up July 2, 1898. TO EXTEND THE FREE TEXT-HOOK SYKTKM. Mr. Henderson offered an amendment to ex- tend the free text-book system to the first six grades of the public schools wnd increasing the sppropriation from 12,000 to €35,000. rr. Bynum of Indiana said th trict committee and the commit priations had devoted some time to investi- gating the monopoly of the school book system and the enormous prices that sre charged in this city for school books this sppropriation would be wholly unnecessary and thai the people would be saved this expense znd a great Kral more. ‘The enormous price charged for school bocks in this city is an evil that ought to be remedied. Mr. Simpson of Kansas favored the amend- ment and hoped that members who favored re- troxebment and reform would not apply it to an amendment intended to increase the schcol facilities in the great capital city cf the nation. When a yote was taken on Mr. Henderson's amendment the ayes were 42, 86. The point of no quornm was made an: demanded. “They reported ayes and the amendment was rejected. POLITICAL COMPLEXION OF THE VOTE. During the vote by tellers Mr. Henderson stationed himself near the tellers and counted each member. He asked to be recognized. and said: “Ido so for the purpose of stating, so that it may cppear in the Hecord, that we are in committee of the whole, and thore is no way of having # yea-and vote upon the propo- sition which has just been submitted to the committee; and to state further that of the 52 gentlemen who voted in the affirmative 8 were democtats and the remainer were repub- licans and alliance men, and of the 117 voting against it every one was @ democrat.” ‘THE COLUMBIA HOSPITAL FOR WOMEN. When the paragraph appropriating $20,000 for the Columbia Hospital for Women was reached Mr. Crain, who is one of the congres- sional trustoes of the institution, moved to strike out the paragraph, either, he said, in the original charter w was gtanted by that the city authorities yy « contract, which expires ij | the Dis- } ‘on appro- reelvew of this op- | Congress. or in the statute which organized | authorizes any expendi this institution,as I am informed by theclerk of the committee on appropriations (a reliable authority in such matters), and as I know by the practice that has obtained in connection with the institution, it was provided that Con- gress should have the appointment of three of the trustees, one of them being a Senator and the other’ two members of the House. Asingular anomaly exists in relation to th character of this trusteechip. I happen to be one of the members selected, in connection with the gentleman from New York (Mr. Ketcham), to represent the House on the board of trustees for the management of this institu- tion and the disbursement of the appropria- tions made for its support, Senator blackburn representing the Senate in the same capacity. Upon one occasion the question of the selection of certain officers of the institution arose at a mecting of the board of trustees. The outside trustees outnumbered us in the proportion of about twelve to three, and we requested per- mission from the other trustees to cast our votes by proxy during the interregnum of Congress. That request was granted by a unanimous vote of the board. Subsequently the same question came up before the board for con- sideration, and we were denied the right to vote upon the pretext that as the Congress to which we belonged no longer existed we had uo right to vote even if prevent, and thatthere- fore our proxies were not valid. Since that time, Mr. Chairman, I bave received numerous invitations, by card, signed by the proper otti- cial of that institution, asking me to be present at ite meetings. AN AMENDMENT THAT WAS ADOPTED. Now, the question is, is Congress properly represented in the board of trustecs of this m- stitution or not? If it is intended that both houses of Congress shall bave representation upon the board of trustees controlling the dis- bursement of these appropriations then the ap- poiutees should hold their office until their saccessors are elected, but according to the judgment of this board it was determined that when we were not needed we should not be allowed to vote, although when we were needed we were called in to cast our votes and to prop- erly represent both houses of Congress. I make these remarks in order to cull the atien- tion of the chairman of the committee on the District of Columbia and the chairman of the committee on appropriations to the anomalous condition of things existing in connection with this institution. I withdraw the amendment and Toffer the one which I now send to the desk: After line 21 insert: ‘Provided, That as vacangies occur among the trustees other than memUkrs of Congress they shall Le filled by the District Commissioners.” In connection witb that amendment I want to state that, as I amcredibly informed, and as Tbelieve can be substantiated by competent evidence, this Doard of trustees is 4 “ring,” 80 that when vacancies occur in it they are filled by the appointment or election of the very same persons whose terms bave expired. It is, in practice, @ perpetual trustee organization. For instance, if the terms of three members expire, the otber members of the board, exer- cising the power of election to fill vacancies, re- elect the former incumbents, who have just gone out by reason of the expiration of their term, thus reinstating them 1 office and cre- ating a perpetuity of office among a simited number of gentiemen. ‘There was no objection and the amendment wos adopted. ST. JosEPnH's ASYLUM. Mr. O'Neill of Missouri moved to increase the appropriation for St. Joseph's asylun from $500 to $5,000. ‘There was a long debate on this question extending over the whole matter of charsties, and the emendment was then re- jected. An amendment, offered by Mr. Hemphill, was adopted providing that Congress pointed to serve on any charitable instit the city shail boid their offices until two months after the meeting of the Congress fol- lowing the one ior whick they were cuosen. This, he said, would prevent a recurrence of such trearment as Kepresentative Crain bad experienced. BEFORM SCHOOS. FOR GIRS. {Then the paragraph was reached making provision “for the erection and completion, according to plans and specifications te be pre- | pared by the inspector of buildings, and ap- proved by the Commissionors of the District of Columbia, of a suttable building or building fon the United States reform school farm said District. to be used as a reform schoul for girls, the of $35,000, to be expended uu- See the direction of said Commissioners. Said building slall Le erected on # site to be selected ! py said Comuissioners and the trastces of the reform school of the District of Columbia: Provided, That not more than fifty acres of suid | reform school farm shail be appropriated for the reform school for girly herein provided for." Mr. Butler made a point of order that this was new legisiation. “There iy uo law,” he said, appropriation of mouey for this parpose. consider it the province of the eommitiet on appropriations to provide appropriations to meet expenditures which come under laws al- | ready existing. Now, there is no law author- izing an expenditure for this purpose and therefore the paragraph is not in orde: GEN. HENDERSON'S APPEAL. Gen. Heuderson of Iowa, opposing this point of order, said: “Under an act of Congress approved July 9, 1888, entitled ‘An act to in- corporate the Keform Schoo! for Girls of the District of Colaaibia,” this organizetion is provided for. In that act it was provided tbat all the sections of the act of May 8, 1876, entitled ‘An act sevising and amending the various acts establishing and relating to the reform school of the District of Columbia’ not inconsistent with the provisions of this act are hereby made to the reform school for gisle of the Diswiet of Coluiubia, except fn my city, 3t Louis, | t $1.25 per thonsand and | Wder twent: that the word ‘girls’ shall be understood wher- ever the word ‘boys’ occurs in said act and the words ‘eighteen yeai ‘sixteen years’ occur. #, in this act of 1888, the reform schoo! for‘girls wax organized and all of the provision of tue preceding act in relation to the boys reforra school, with the exceptions above stated, were made applicable to The boys’ re- form schou! “ine been in operation a good many yeurs and I think that it owns 930 acres of land and is supported in the way that other institutions are supported in the District. This bill carrics, in round numbers, £40,000 for the | boys’ reform school. ‘The fact that there was sed public sentiment and appeals came to | Congress tor « similar institution for girls. To- jay there ix not a place where a girl can be seut | by order of the court (it is pursuant to the or- | der ot the court that boys are sent to the re- jform school) except the public jail or work | house, both unnt for the purpose. The police {Justice enme before tne subcommittee volun- | tarily appealing for jon, and stated there were 1,2 last year of girls y-one years of age and that t! as uo yp in the Dis cept the j 7 ar. Compton—I would like to ask the gentle- man whether the buildings of the boys’ reform school were erected vy an appropriation from Congress? THE oRIOTNAT. ACT. Mr. Henderson (lowa)—I do not know what he inct as to the original building. I ean- not speak as to that matter because I have not investiguted it. The act before we with refer- ence to the boys’ reform school seen been « summing up or condensation of various acts relating to that institution, ‘The title was vested in a board of trustees, subject to the control of the government, and there is a similar provision in regard to this in- stitution for girls. The reasou why money was uot appropriated in tie origiiul act of 1883 was doubtless this: The act authorized the creation of the corporation and the orguuization of the board of trnstees, the object beng that they should come before Congress with the esti- mates and other information which mught be needed for intelligent legislation. ‘Thess pre- liminary steps have now been teken. ‘The board ‘has been orgavized; it has submitted plans and estimates, and, in pursuance of the action of Congress in the ercation of this girls reform school, the board now ask an appropriation. They want $75,000; the Commissioners have recommended £35,000. that boing deemed suflicient to start tie institution aud got it in operation to tuke care of the number of girls who will be there during the first year. Sooner or later the appropriation will have to be larger in order to meot the wants of the District, but for the purpose of starting the in: the Commissioners’ lowest amount that bly be recommended—and I sin that no opposition to prop tion wil come front asiugle member ot the Hfonse. Lue not believe the point of order is well taken, because hore is a statute creating the iustitution, and bear in mind, Mr. Chair- man, another fact: under this law the Police Court of the District of Columbia has the power to send to this institution girls under tweuty- one yeursof age who are arrested for auy offenie. The law gives this power to the Police Court; this corporation has been ereated by Congress; # Leard of trustece sppointed by Congress, the same as in the case of the boys’ reform school, hax becn organized; the instita- tion has bad’ inparted to it the sume lite and force that Lelong to the boys’ referm school. Certainly this institution is eutitled to be recognized in this way in this bill. It seems to me the point of order cannot be sustained. The chairman said be was inclined to the opinion that there is nothing im the act of in- corporation of the girls’ reform school which ture by the government; nor, #0 far as the chair has thus far been able to tind, is any expenditure by Congress author- ized in the charter of the boys’ reform school. Now, it would appear that without some such authorization this appropriation would not be in order. AGAINST THE POINT OF ORDER. Mr. Henderson (Iowa) There is no express authorization with reference to the boys’ re- form school, but these two statutes are to be construed together. Congress in authorizin, the incorporation of the girly’ reform school provided that within thirty days the board of trastecs must meet and organize, and provided also that on the organization of this institution every provision with reference to the boys’ reform school should be applicable to this other institution. Now, Congress under the law for the establishment of the boys reform school has appropriated right along. During my service in Congress we have appropriated latge sums of money for additions ard for new buildings. I submit that appropriations may be authorized either by express terms or by implication. In either view, it seems tome, we have an appropriation authorized in this case. Here we have the case of one incor- porated institution which has enjoyed all the advantages of the appropriating power of Congress, and the act with refer- ence to that institution is made a part of the law establishing this girls’ re- form school. This law is very bricf. Its real purpose was simply to create @ bourd of trus- tees and to provide that as to this institution for girls the sume law should operate that ob- tained with reference to the institution for boys. Here we have two institutions created, and the later one is clothed with all the powers and vital farces of the earlier one. The older institution receives in this bill ‘an appropria- tion of $40,000 for maintenance. During my service here it has had money appropriated to it again and again for buildings. ‘This new in- stitution, clothed with the same powers as the oid one, is as much entitled under the law and under our rules to an appropriation as the older one. I submit that the point of order is not well taken. NO QUESTION 8 TO POWER. Mr. Butler said: I make no question what- ever of the power of this House to legislate for the purpose of erecting « building for the girls’ reform school, and if we should pass a law pro- viding for the erection of such a building it might then become proper for the committee ‘on appropriations to provide for the expendi- tures of such an institution. But with reference to the public buiidings in this District and in various parts of the country which are erected under the direct law ot Congress, the appro- priations for the erection of such institutions and meeting such expenditures are provided for after the law has wuthorized the expendi- tures to be made. SIMILAR APPROPRIATIONS. Gen. Henderson called attention to the fact that in the District of Columbia appropriation bill, Congress has provided appropriations for engiue houses, public school buildings, police ‘namber of other institutions, all the general appropriating power, al- though none of them have beon specifically provided for by act of Congress, either general ial. oF spec Mr, Butler said he was not opposed to the irls’ reform school, but that be thought it Shouid be provided for in the regular wart Mi. DINGLEY'S AROUMENT. ‘The chairman reserved bis decision until this morning and Mr. Dingley cloved the discussion in an argument agaicst the point of order. It , he said, that the point of order * this paragraph is not well taken if it can be shown that this girls’ reform school isa public institution in this District, and by public institation I mean a governinent insti- tution which has been authorized by law, and that it has been nuthorized by law thero is no question. ‘The chairman—It has been chartered. Mr. Dingley—If the chairman wili oxamine what kas been spoken of as a “charter”—the Act ustablishing this insutution—be will find thatitis not an ordinary act of incorporation, meking certai als named a corporate body to. inuintain a girls’ reform school, which would be simply a privnte corporation, but it in aft cet providing for the establishment of @ girls’ voform school in the District of Colum- bia, the trustees of which are to be appointed by the President and to make report to the Attorney General aud be subject to the control ’ wherever the words imilar school in the District for girls | and direction of Congress. Not only i$ courts may sentence wayward girls to serve terms in the institution for reformatory ends as to penal institution. In short, the provisions of the act establishing a boys’ re- form school, which it is admitted is a govern- ment institution, and for whose support Con- gress annually appropriates, are applied to the girls’ reform school, and it ws proposed to locate the latter institution on the same farm of the boys’ reform school. It seems to me that the act of 1688, authorizing girls’ reform school, makes it public D: trict institution, managed by trastees appolu' by the President and subject to the control of Congress. If so, then it is a goverument insti- tution, authorized by law, for which an appro- priation, whether for a buibling or for carry- ing it on, may be mado in a geueral appropria- tion bill under the rule. For, of course, it iea government institutior, authorized by law, then expenditures for the institution are au. thorized.by law in the meaning of therule. I I the attention of the chair also to the ruling of Mr. Chairman Cox. ir which he held (and the committee supported him) thats paragraph in the Military Academy appropriation Uill, tanking an appropriation for, the eonsiruction of new building on tho Military Academy gromnds at West Point, way not subject to a point of order under the rule, for the reson the Military Academy iw an institution of rnment authorized by law, and any appro- »riation for repairs or enlargement of existing Daidings, of for construction of new buildings asa part of such institution, are for an object authorized by law. ————_-2+_. ONE OJECTIONABLE PROVISION. What Senator Harris Hus to Say Abont It This Afternoon. There are some things in the District appro- printion bill which will not receive the hearty and unqualified support of the Senate, how- ever much the Senate may be inclined toward that ious something which has beon dosignated “reform.” On the second page of the report of the House committee on appropriations on the District bill (printed in Tax Sram Tuesday) is a provision which the committee recommends should Le inserted in the bill. The provision is as follows: “That whoever intends to present toCongress & petition or bill for anact of incorporation, or tor an alteration or extension of the charter of 4 corporation in the District of Columbia, or for any special priviloges, shall give notice of such intention by publishing a copy of the pe- tition or bill at least once a week for four suc- cossive weeks, the last of said publications tobe made at least fourteen days prior to the pro- Seutation of such petition or bill, Such news- paper shall be designated by the petitioner and approved by the Commissioners of the District of Columbia, Senator Harris saw the recommendation and Provision for the first time this afternoon, whon they were shown him by a Stan reporter. ‘To say that the Senator was astonished would perhaps be putting it very mildly. “That,” said he, pointing at the paragraph, “is the most absurd proposition that ] ever heard of or expect to hear. It is simply preposterous. We do uot need lessons in deliberation. ‘Things are not rushed through the Senate so hastily that the interests of any one fail to receive due consideration.” _ “Would you care to be compelled to adver- tise your intention to offer a bill amending the charter of a company?” asked the reporter. ‘No Senator or Representative would pa; the slightest attention to that Provision if it were passed a thousand timos,” replied the Senator. ee THE SILVER QUESTION, Senator Jones Thinks = Free Coinage Bill ‘Will Pass Both Houses. Senstor Jones of Nevada is recovering from the effects of the grip and is again able to be at his place in the Senate. He stated today that he has nodoubt sbout the passage of a free coinage Dill at an early date. He takes no stock in the prevailing talk about radical changes in sentiment and purposes on the part of mombers of Congress on the silver question. On the contrary, he says, it is not at ail probs- ble that any material change will be noticeable when the vote shall be taken upon the direct question of passing a bill for the free coinage of silver. “We may lose a few votes in either house,” Mr. Jones said today, “but we can afford to lose a few votes and set have a good working majority for our bill. I have no fear of any serious losses ineither house. Members. will not dare to go back upon the sentiment and witl of the people who sent them here a their re: resentatives. We will pass free coinage bill aud give the President g chance to veto it, if he shall see it to exercise the veto power upon co ee Increase of Cash and Circulation. A statement prepared at the Treasury De- partment shows that during the month of Feb- ruary there was net increase of 5,703,764 in irculation and a net increase of $15,122,580 in money and bullion in the treasury.
