SENATE, There was less than quorum of Senstors Present when the day's proceedings begun. Many had left the city for the holidays and | among thove was Vice President Morton, in whose absence the chair was occupied by Mr. Manderson (republican, Nebraska), president pro tem. of the Senate. Among the papers presented and referred were joint resolutions of the Vermont legis- lature requesting Congress to enact laws estab- lishing a uniform policy of immigration from foreign nations and of migration from state to state, In presenting a batch of petitions asking postponement of the anti-option bill Mr. Cook- ell (Mo. ) spok ped peti. eof them as stereoty) tions, marked with fraud and hardly entitled to be recognized us the kind of petitions that ought to be presented to the Senate. Numer- ous other petitions of the same kind were pre- sented by other Senators and were all referred to the committee on agriculture. THE IMBNORATION KUSPENSION BILL, Mr. Chandler (N. H.), from the committee on immigration, reported back with amend- ments a bill to suspend and prohibit immigra- tion for one year from March 1, 1893, and ‘euked that it be read in full. After it was read and placed on the calendur Mr. Chandler said that ‘the matter was of such importance that there ought to be, at the reassembling of Con- gress in January, an immediate consideration of it. He shouid therefore ack the Senate on the first day of the reassembling to take up the Vill for consideration and action. SENATOR HILL DISSENTH. Mr. Hill (dem., N. ¥.)—a member of the committee on immigration—eaid that he had not concurred in the report. There was one feature of the bill which he thought be should object to. He thought that a bill could be framed that would meet the views of the coun- try better than the one reported; and he re- served the right at some future time to submit a minority report. Senate bill (of last session) to Amend exist- ing laws relating to mineral lands and mining resources was, on motion of Mr. Stewart (rep., Nev.), taken ‘from the calendar and passed, after an explanation that the bill simply applied to details in the patenting of mining claims, not enlarging anybody's right. Mr. Perkins (rep. Kan.) introduced « bill to €nable the people of Oklahoma and of the In- lian territory to form a constitutional and state government and to be admitted into the Union onan equal footing with the original states. Referred to the committes on territories. THE M'GARRAHAN BILL. ‘The McGarrahan bill was then taken up and Mr. Hunton (dem., Va.,) continued his argu- ment in favor of its passage over the Presi- | dent's veto. ‘The bill, he said, had passed the Senate withouta single vote being recorded | against it; aud it bad passed the’ House under | @ suspension of the rules with seven votes more | | than the necessary two-thirds, It was fair to | | assume that it bad received full consideration | in the judiciary comm of the Senate (which | had reported it) and in the House committee | {on mines and mining. And the only effect of | the bill (if it should become a law) was to turn McGarrahan buck to the beginning of the con- troversy, to file his application before a United States court and to establish, step by step, his right to the property. | At the close of Sir. Hunton’s speech an effort | was auade by Mr. Teiler (rep., Col.,) to have @ | day fixed (the 17ih of January) for taking a | voto on the bill, but Mr. Morrill (rep., Vt.,) | and other Senators objected and the bill went | over without action. retaining its privileged | | position in the morning hour. | ‘The anti-option iil was then taken up and Mr. Peffer (pop., | Kan.,) continued his speech in favor of it. j After Mr. Peffer concluded his speech in | |favor of the anti-option bill Mr. Washburn tried, but failed, to have a day fixed after the | holidays for taking the vote, and then he au- nounced bis purpose of keeping the bill before | | the Senate until disposed of. The Senate went | | into executive session. ‘The Senate, after a brief executive session, adjourned at'2:45 until Wednesday, January 4 HOUSE. Immediately after the reading and approval of the journal Mr. McMillin (Tenn.) moved an | adjournment. This was defeated—42-48, The committees were called for reports, but without important results, and as there was ev- | {dently no quorum precent the Houge at 12: adjourned until January 4, 1893. Se ee MR. MANOGUE TALKS, He Criticizes Col. Berret’s Action in Increas- ing the Inauguration Committee. Mr. Wm. H. Manogue is a local democrat who does not approve of the action of Chair- man Berret in appointing the additional mem- bers of the inaugural committee. Mr. Manogue stated toa Star reporter this after- noon that he kuew of no consultation having been held by those who opposed Mr. Berret's course, and knew not whether there would or | would’ not be a concerted —resigna- tion of such members. Mr. Manogue remarked | that he considered that in appointing a sy | plemental list of committeemen almost Gouble the committee named by Mr. Harrity Mr. Ber- ret bad far exceeded the authority conferred upon him by Mr. Harrity. “I am confident, said Mr. Manogue, “‘that from what I learned from Mr. Harrity himself he never contem- plated or desired that Mr. Berret should go to such extremes.” Mr. Manogue also assertedthat the Thursday preceding the announcement by Chairman Ber- rot of the additional members of the committee Mr. Berret stated to several persons who called that he would point buta few additional members and that they would mostly be offiers of the army and navy. “Yet,” said Mr. Mano- gue, ‘in less than twenty-four hours later, at 1 o'clock Friday morning, Mr. Berret sent out the appointments of the eighty Kdditioual mem- re, Another thing,” continued Mr. Manogue, ‘almost atthe very moment Mr. Jas, L. Nor- ris and Mr. Berret were informing the report- ers of THE Stan of their entire satisfaction with the committee of fifty inted by Chair- | | man Harrity they were preparing to nullify his attempt to reconcile the differences in local democratic circles by appointing gn additional number of’ committeemen large enough to carry out their own R Mr. Monogue further heard that no addi- tional members of the committee should have | been appointed until after the original com- | mittee of fifty had organized. He said that it was absurd to even imagine that the whole mat- tor was not # cut and dried affair. As to the appointment of Gen. McMahon as chief mar- shat by Chairman Berret, he said that while he found no fault with the general he did the marshal by the committee. | Another criticism made by ur. Manogue wes | that Mr. Berret had not only neglected such | prominent democrats as Mr. A. A. Lipscomb, entre cena ,, but to the ¢laims to appointment on the committee of 22,3 | any pledges. No one brs sought to get them 892—TEN PAGES. Subject. ‘RE HAS ONE HUNDRED AND FORTY VOTES IN THE NEXT MOUSE sURE— THIS HAS BEEN ARRIVED AT WITHOUT ANT FORMAL CANVASS OR PLEDGES. Recent events have caused a pretty free ex- Pression of the views of members of the | House on the subject of the speakership. The talk of an extra session early in the spring (which has now almost completely disappeared) started gossip on the speak- ership and the Reform Club incident aroused a livelier interest in the question. There have been a number of quiet gatherings in small groups of members whose interests. and associations were to some extent allied, and the result is that the friends of the Speaker now assert with confidence that he will suc- ceed himself, and some of them express the belief that the sentiment, in his favor will be found to be so strong that Mr. Crisp Will have no opposition. It can hardly be said that there’has been a canvass of the House, for the matter seems to have been done ina most informal manner, but the views of « large part cf the members of the House have been asver- tained, mainly. the Speaker's intimate friends of the members. A CLAIM OF ONE HUNDRED AND FORTY MEMBERS. The result is a claim that 140 members have signified their intention to vote for Mr. Crisp for Speaker of the House in the Fifty-third Congress. This list includes members-elect to the next House who are not members of the present House who have made known their views, but it is said that it does not include a number of members-elect whore views are un- known, avd some’ of whom it is thought are sure to be favorable to Mr. Crisp. It is said by some members that there are not included in the list of 140 members any men who, while in the present House, are not to serve in the Fifty-third Congress, but the informal manner in which the intentions of the members have been ascertained make it reasonably certain that in at least a limited number of cases by misteke members have been included who failed of or declined re-election, The Speaker's friends have been disinclined to give publicity to the matter, because, as one of his close friends suid, it might took like boasting on their part, bui the matter became generally known when it assumed its present size. WHAT 318, OUTHWAITE SAxs, Mr. Outhwaite of Ohio, who was one of the Speaker's most active lieutenants in his fight for the present speakership, contented to be quoted. He said: “The friends of Speaker have ascertained the views of |@ large number of members of the House {and out of a total membership of 217 dem- | ocraticmembers in the next House, onebundred and forty have signified that they will vote for Mr. Crisp. It will take only 109 to give him the caucus nomi ion. Yer, the claim is that no present members not members-elect to. the next House have been counted, but I think that is probably a mistake and that « few of them have been included. “On the other hand, there are many new member who have not been counted at ail. I belie | that Mr. Crisp will have more than that num- ber, and that he will have no opposition when the time comes. There has becn talk of Mr. Wilson of West Virginia, Mr. Breckinridge of Kentucky and Mr. McMillin as opponents of Mr. Crisp for the speakership, But up to th present time when we hunt for the opposition it does not materialize. There have been no pledges made and no attempt at such a thing — this is simply what members have said were their intentions.” NO CANVASS OR PLADOES. Another member who is known asa warm friend of Mr. Crisp, and did not wish to be | quoted, “There has been no canvass or nor has there, as I understand it, been any persons who have set about the work of getting up a list of members, but a great many members have said how they intended to vote. Some have told the Speaker, others have spoken to his friends ber 140, vou, name is correct, und I think he will get more than that. It includes some new members who have expressed themselves, but The num- not included and_ personal of them are for Mr. Criep. Representative Breckinridge of Arkansas has been looked upon a likely to be one of the leaders of any opposition movement. Mr. Breckinridge when asked about the reported canvass to day said: “I can't. tell you anything about it, for really I do not know a thing on the subject, and was not aware of the canvass, Will there be an opposition to Mr. Crisp or has the matter m sure that some ou any definite information one way or the other. Ithink it is too early to speak about the next speakership.” ~o— SNOW AND ICE. Col. Ernst’s Report on the Bill for Their Removal From Sidewalks. Col, Ernst has forwarded through Gen. Casey and Assistant Secretary of War Grant his report on Senator Hansbrongh’s bill for the removal of snow and ice from sidewalks and gutters. Col. Ernst suggests that with an amendment making the provisions of the bill refer to “paved” side- walks the first three sections would seem to be in the interest of good government. ‘The section requiring the District Commiesion- ers to keep the crosswalks and gutters clear is changed so'that the crosswalks shall be cleared toa width of ten fect, and when covered with ice sprinkled with sand, sawdust or such ma- terial ax will insure rafety to pedestrians. The duties of the government regurding the care of sidewalks about public buildings and through public squares and parks are amended #0 that the work of cleaning the snow away is to begin after and not unon the commence- are thoroughfares shall be cleaned to a lic, and this is to when funds are available. The communication closes: “It may be ‘proper to remark in this connection that the appropriations for the re~ moval of snow and ice have habitually been less by 20 per cent than the estimates submitted by this office.” The recommendations submitted by Col. Ernst are indorsed both by Gen. Casey and As. sistant Secretary of War Grant. ces ta EM EXPERT PETTY THIEVES, be done only A Number Are Sentenced Today by Judge Miller.

MR. STUMP'S MOWORATION BILL. Mr. Stump presented in the House the. sub- stitute for the House ‘bill agreed upon. The substitute was accom; by a brief report as follows: “In view of the widespread [interest in the oot of _ immigra- tion now prevailing throughout the coun- try and of the necessity for immediate legis- lntion looking to ite stringent restriction or | total suspension for a limited period and of the | diversity of opinion as to the propriety of such | total suspension your committee, thoroughly impressed with the importance of prompt and effective action on the part of Congress and | governed by what they believe to be the pre- | vaihng judgment of the eminent medical gen- tlemen whose views they have sought and ob- tained, believe that with the safeguards provided in the measure they report the danger so gen- erally apprehended from the introduction of cholera “during the coming spring and |summer will disappear and the necessity for a total suspension of immigration, with all its attendant inconveniences and losses, Will be obviated. But in anticipation of the possible failure of the restriction measures provided in the substitute, to effectually guard | against the threatened danger, provision a made for the partial or total suspension of im- | migration from any port or place, whether by water or land, whenever and for so long as in | the judgment of the President and Secretary of | the Treasury such suspension may be neces- | sary.” TRE IMMIGRATION PILI. Mr. Stump of Maryland, chairman of the | House committee on immigration, has amended his immigration bill so as to make it apply to immigrants coming by land or | water. The amendment was made in order | toallow the suspension of immigration from | Canada, Mexico and South American countries, The members of the House subcommittee on immigration met today and discusfed the vari- ‘os measures before the committee. Thett dis- | cussion centered on the Stump bill, which the | think covers the ground and which they wiil | probably recommend to the full committee. | They will meet the Senate subcommittee this loan to the Columbian world’s fair exposition, | asapartof the exhibit of the state of North Dakota, the Red river cart. which is now on ex. hibition at the museum. he bill provides the cart shall be returned to the museum one month after the exposition closes. eke TO PREVENT BYPNoTISM, Senator Mitchell introduced today a bill to prevent hypnotism, mesmerism or the use of electricity on oue person for the purpose of affecting another in the District of Columbia or ny part of the United States. RANK AND PAY IX THE Navy. The House committee on naval affairs has favorably reported the bill providing for the appointment of « commission of three members by the Senate and House to consider all ques- tions relating to the rank, pay and sel of | the navy. The committe also f ported the bill introduced at the instance of the Secretary of the Navy equalizing the pay of the judge advocate general of the navy under certain conditions. DIFFERENCES ON TMIORATION. The two committees of the House and Senate on immigration failed today to agree upon one bill to be reported to both Houses of Con- | gress. After long discussion it was informally agreed that the Senate committee should report the Chandler bill, stopping immigration abso- | lately for one year, and that the House com- | mittee would report a more conservative bill, | giving greater power to the government officials | in watebing immigration and giving the Presi- | dent authority to suspend immigration for any | period he deems desirabie, at any time when he | Bctiowes it neccesary to preserve the health of the country. ‘The effo*t has becn to bave both committ ces agree on the same bill so as to avoid any possi- | ble contlicts between thg two houses, it is not believed, however, that ‘their failure to do so will jeopardize legislation on the subject. There isa very strong sentiment in both the House and Senate in favor of some sort of legislation which will put a stop to immigration whenever it is necessary to preserve the health of this country, and the general opinion is that a law similar to the bill to be reported to the House will be enacted. That there will be some sort of legislation there is no doubt. sosemiy DISTRICT IN CONGRESS. NOW IN THE SENATE. Senator Gorman introduced today the ill incorporating the Brightwood Burat Mills and Sandy Springs Railroad Company. The bill has heretofore been printed in Tue Stax, MONEY FOR THE PRINTING OFFICE SITE. A favorable report was made to the House to- day making immediately available the appro- printion of $250,000 for the new government printing office. A SMITHSONIAN REGENT.
