Mr. Palmer replied that a number of dele- fiatet bad boon instructed for him before he new anything about the matter and that he @idnbt feel called upon to forbid it, but ac- knowledged that after the matter of ‘instruc- tions had gone away without any effort on his part his friends had begun fo take an interest in the matter, He said, however, that if having the state convention instructed for him was gomg to cause any friction in the party he would pe satisfied with a compli- mentary resolution, which did not go quite so far xs to formally instruct tho delegutes to the Rational convention to vote for him for Presi- len’ ds, interests,” and Mr. Teller agreed to the sug- geetion, although he did not see, ho said, how such publication could hurt the public inter- esta, The resolution as 60 modificd was agreod to. VALUE OF RAILROADS, ‘Mr. Call offered a resolution (which went over without action) for the appointment of a committee of nine Senators to inquire into the resent value per mile of the railways of the nited States, their present capitalization and the difference between such capitalization and the actual cost of construction and equipment; their grosa and net receipta; the number and compensation of their eniployes; their amount of bonded indebtedness and capital stock, and tho‘amount of stock and bonds held by stock- holders and bondholders, distinguished be- tween home and foreign holders. ‘ME.

It is understood that Mr. Hoar's purpose isto make a trip to Europe inorder to consult the most distinguished specialists in eye diseases, THE CHINESE EXCLUSION BILE. The Chinese exclusion bill was then taken upand Mr. Teller addressed the Senate. There could not be, he said, any dispute touching the rejection of the United States minister to China, but he had no fault to find with the Chinese government because it had rejected Mr. Blair, Coming to the question of the ab- rogation of treaties he held that every nation which agreed with another nation did so with tho understanding th might re- tire from it at any ime it saw fit. And it might do so notwithstanding the fact that there was a provision in the treaty that it should continue for a limited period of time, Legisiation by the national legislature would set aside any treaty inconsistent with it HAVE OTHER NATIONS THE SAME POWER? Mr, Morrill, while inclined to believe that Congress had power to pass a law superseding asked "Mr. Teller whether he thought er nations had the same power. OBJECTION TO THE COMPROMISE. Mr. Forman said that there was as much objection to the compromise proposition as there was to the original and that jt would be fought. Mr. Morrison’s friends, he said, would not agreo that the delegation should be placed in the hands of Senator Palmer, to be disposed of as he thought proper. The people of IHinois, Mr. Forman said, were in favor of Mr. Cleveland's nomination. An effort would be made to have the deloga- tion from that state to the national convention instructed for Mr. Cleveland, and if Senator Palmer succeeded in getting instructions or an indorsement from the state convention it would he done only a battering down Mr. Cleye- land’s forces, Seuator Palmer disclaimed an opposition to Cleveland, saying that he ations | Cleveland’s nomination and would not antag- onize him, but that he wanted to be indorsed himself. 4 YIONT EXPECTED. The conference broke up with the impression Prevailing that Mr. Palmer would insist upon his being indorsed and that the Cleveland forces under the direction of Mr. Morrison would resist him with all their influence and insist upon instructions for Mr. Cleveland. ‘almer wrote a letter to his managers at tating practically what he stated to the Illinois members of the House, and # very hot contest is expected in the state. ‘Mr. Forman will start for Illinois tonight to attend the state convention. Ho said to a Sram reporter today that he waa perfectly confident that the Illinois delegation would be instructed Mr. Teller thought he had stated explicitly | for Cleveland. that all nations had that power, and said that ——. he would have a very poor opinion of a nation Lunches for # Thousand Delegates. which would surronder that right. Mr. Morrill remarked that Japan had for years endeavored to get a release from a treaty with Great Britain and had not succeeded. Mr. Teller said that a reason for that might be that Japan was not willing to create friction with Greet Britain, The United States had been trying for a great many years to get rid of a Ono of the most important branches of the work of providing for the entagtainment of the various organizations of patriotic women con- nectod with the G.A.R., who will hold national conventions in this city during the grand en- campment, will be the serving of lunches to the delegates daily at the various convention weaty with Great Britain and had got| halls, Potomac Relief Corps, W.

But it was very evident that the people of the United States would insist on the abro- gation of that treaty when it should appear that it was inimical to the interests of the great mass of the people of the country. AMERICANS AND CHINAMEN WON'T ASSIMILATE. Reverting to pecullaritiesof Chinese immi- gration, Mr. Teller remarked that the Ameri- cun would never assimilate with the Chinaman, because if the American would the Chinaman would not. ‘The Chinese were a very wonder- ful people, and perhaps the most wonderful thing about them was that they were practi- cally today where they had been one or two thousand years ago. In the whole catalogue of nations there was not one nation so thoroughly eatisfied with itself and its surroundings as the Chinese. And they were as unchangeable now in this, the last decade of the ninetecuth century, as they were when they wore first learned of in Europe through Marco Polo, WUY THE CHINESE SHOULD BE KEPT AWAY, The Chinaman would, in contact with the civilization of Europe and America, remain # Chinaman. And therefore a reason cxisted for keeping them out of the country which did not exist for keeping other people out Chinamen came to the United States simply to take money out of the country apd to return to theirhomes. They took no part in building up the society in which they lived. Chinamen contributed simply cheap labor and in that he came in competition with the American laborer and deprived him of his opportunities, ‘Those Chinamen who were in the country with the consent of the United States govern- ment were entitled to domicile and there was no way that he knew without an infraction ius not of the law) of the decencies that should be shown by one nation to another to compel the Chinamen now here to retire, but the United States government had a perfect right to say that no more should come.

To Benefit the Eastern Dispensary. The entertainmont at the National Rifles’ Hall last night for the benefit of the Eastern Dispensary was a financial and artistic success. After an address by Sonator Daniel an attract- ive program was presented, in which the fol- lowiug participated: Misses 0 Mat- tingly, M. B.

Isaac Toleon and His Push Cart. Isaac Tolson, a colored man accused of theft, got his facts badly mixed when he attempted to prove his innocence to the Police Court jury this morning. Isaac was the temporary owner of a push cart that was paid for by Henry Smith, and the latter objected to parting with the cart without getting some cash therefor. An inves- tigation was made and the cart was found at Mr. A. Kendig’s piace in South Washington. Ho had purchased i¢ from Isaac for $1.25 and the latter told him that he had used it for two rears, * Tease was called ‘upon for an explanation, He first thought there was some mistake about his having told Mr. Kendig that be had hed the cart for two years, ‘I bought the cart from # man,” he said, nd paid him 25 cents for he live?” Bottom.’” : ith Chase?” ‘Phere was.acalm inthe House today, suo- gihordhiaas ceeding the gale of yesterday.
