The fact that the ex-queen had secured t:ckets to the gallery created consternation among those who had thought it imposst- le that she should secure this recognition. Inquiry discloses the fact that the only available explanation of the matter is that Secretary Olney furnished her the tickets. He is said to be the only one having tick- ets to this gallery which were not assigned to accredited foreign diplomats. For any representative of another country to have presented the ex-queen with admission to the diplomatic gallery would be such an offense to a fellow diplomat as to make the | offender subject to immediate recall. ° The ex-queen {s here disputing the status Even in the death agonies cf the Cleve-| Of both the Hawallan minister and the present Hawailan government.

FEIGENSPAN. The House and Senate Were at Work Till Dawn. EXCITING AND INTERESTING SCENES Deftness and Ease in the Confer- ence Agreements. DISTRICT LEGISLATION No time before, within ithe recent ex- perience of Congress, have;the conference committees on the appropriation bills got along with such scemipg ease as they did last night. Congress stdrtetf out for an all- ht session, with the eNXpectation that there would be repeated reports of dis- greements and a hard fight between the conferees of the two hous#s. But, on the contrary, the conferees agreed speedily on all but the deficiency. A very large crowd was assembled in the galleries and in the -orridors, composed largely‘bf ladies. Quite a number of men and women in evening Iress occupied seats in the galleries. In the diplomatic gallery of the Senate a group in evening dress remained until about midnight. Most of the visitors’ gal- teries were well filled until after 1 o'clock, and as late as 3 o'clock most of the seats n the men’s galleries were occupied. The scenes on the floor of the Senate were for he free from excitement or reat deal of talking was but all the conference in early were acted on without most part ptly ty half-past 3 were asleep in their chai The Senate struck a almost at the outset of the session last night. Good prog- ress had been made with the work during the long day session, and the prospect seemed that there might be very little de- lay in clearing up everything. The post office and fortification bills had been cleared out of the way, and the conference com- mittess had agreed on the naval, the In- Gian and District of Columbia appropri tion bills. The sundry civil and de were still in conference. The Senate, after two hours’ recess, met at 8 o'clock and had to wait some time for @ quorum. Meanwhile matters on the fioor were quiet and uninteresting. At ten minutes of 11 the clerk of the House reported to the Senate the agree- ment of the House to the conference re- ports on the Indian and District of Colum- bia appropriation bills. Mr. Hill then got recognition to submit a conference report on the bill providing that in any case here- tofore final in the Court of Appeals in the District of Columbia may be required by the Supreme Court to be certitied up to that court. This agreed to. The conference report on the Indian bill was then laid before the Senate. Mr. Quay Gemanded a quorum, and this required a eral senators roll call. A quorum was pre nt, and the Genference report was agreed to Without a Bi TREP IN CooL Pace sma The conference report on the District ap- if AD U) propriation bill was then adopted without a \ GHT AT LEAST 24 HO! division. Meanwhile, ports not being ready the consideration of trial commission bill, which had been in- terrupted. Considerable time was consum- ed in the discussion of this measure. The House Flanked Him. While Mr. Quay was lying in wait for the naval appropriation bill to come back to the Senate, where he could get a whack at it, the fact developed that the House, in- stead of adopting the cor had simply receded from its accepted all the Senate amendmeats. This action disposed of the bill, so that it would net have to go back to the Senate. The MH had run the blockade Mr. Gua had put up.against it before he had got his guns trained. Thus, at 11:2) o'clock, the sundry civil and the deficiency bills were the only measures standing in the way of an adjournment, and on them the conference committees were..working ear- nestly. ? A very long debate, wag indulged in on the labor commission bill, much of which was rambling, and {several impassioned speeches were made gn the subject of the nd labor. Shortly after 2 the bill other conference re- . the Scnate continued the labor or indus- erence report, position and rival of the hour for the House to recon- vere put an end to the concert. When the House convened at 8:30 o'clock last night, after a recess of a couple of hours, there was a prospect of a stormy debate over the naval appropriation bill. A contest was pending over the price of armor plate for the navy. The Senate had reduced the price to $00 a ton wy an amendment. This was vigorously opposed by some members of the House, the House naval committee having recommended $400 a. ton. After a brisk debate of half an hour the ‘House agreed to the $300 rate by a decis- ive vote. There were still several Senate amendments pending, however, to which the House had refused to agree. Principal among them were the items for the three torpedo boats and a practice vessel for the Naval Academ After the vote was taken on the armor plate item Chairman Boutelle of the naval committee moved to reconsider the pre- vious action of the House and to agree to all of the Senate amendments. This was done, and the naval bill was cleared away before 9:30 o'clock. The Indian appropriation bill conference report then came in. There was a vexa- tious item in that bil? relating to the use of an unexpended balance of the appropria- tion for 1895 for the training of Indian children in sectarian schools, the fund to be equally divided among the several denom- inations. There was opposition to the amendment from those who have been fighting the sectarian appropriations in the Indian and the District of Columbia bilis, but the amendment was agreed to never- theless, to go into gto” se Hughes, tor ah x » session, his obsict cure the confirmation of. postmaster at Mercur, 3rown of Utah opposed sitive sion, and demanded the yeas and nays. No quorum was developed on ‘the roll call, and the Senate was thus tied up. Call after call of the Senate followed, a quorum pres- ent, but not a voting quorum developing. The Armor Coniracts. The conference repott on the sundry elvil came over from the House: about 3 o'clock. After the reading of ‘the veport, Mr. All- son explained the terms of the agreement. Mr. Quay then took thé floor and stated that he had intended to read cértain documents and records concerning the armor plate contracts. He designated what they were and asked coment to print them in the Record, sitice nothing could be gained at this time by reading them in the Senate. Mr. Chandler objected. “Then,” said Mr. Quay, “I shall proceed to read them,” and he gathered up two or three volumes. This excited symptoms of collapse in the Senate, and finally a mo- tion to permit Mr. Quay to print them was. put and carried, while Mr. Squire pro- tested. i Mr. Mantle them took the floor and ex- plained to the Senate that it was with great reluctence that he had decided not to oppose the report by every parliamentary means in his power, on account of the modification of the forestry amendment, and that he had so decided only because of assurance from high authority that the evil complained of would be corrected. Mr. Clark spoke on this amendment, and in the course of his remarks teok occasion-to criti- cise Mr. Cleveland for, catering to every- thing that was foreign and rejecting all that was American, Secret Legislative Session. The conference report-was adopted, and then a secret legislative session was en- tered upon, the galleries being cleared’ and ames an. an exe The District Bill The District of Columbia appropriation conference report was then brought in by Mr. Grout. He announced that a final agreement had been reached upon all of the items in dispute. The Senate conferees had abandoned the free public library amendment, the Lydecker aqueduct tun- nel amendment and the item relating to condemnations under the highway act. On their part the House conferees had yielded to the Senate on the charities amendment, the item relating to electric lighting and the amendment concerning the collection of taxes. Mr. Grout said he had yielded with great reluctance to the Senate in the matter of charities and elec- tric lights, but that he deemed it neces- Sary to do so in order to secure the pass- age of the bill at this session. The House conferees had insisted upon their disagree- ment to the Lydecker tunnel item because the appropriations committee had no es- timates or information about this work, and could not consent to the appropriation in the absence of such official informa- jon. Mr. Dockery sald the Senate had added $1,700,000 to the bill, and the House con- ferees had succeeded in cutting this down to $369,000. He considered this a pretty good showing as far as money was con- cerned. He was averse to yielding to the Benatar cr the electric light and charities . but was compelled to do items at pel 80 to save After some further talk of a desultory character Mr. Grout demanded the prev- fous question, and the conference report was adopted. ‘Thus, when the hour of 10:30 arrived, the House found that it had cleared away three big appropriation bills that had ap- peared ominous earlier in the day. A re- cess of half an hour was then taken to permit the conferees on the sundry civil bili to bring in a report. When tae House reconvened the Senate amendments were adopted to the bill pro- Yiding for reassessment of water main Lxes, Enlarging Federal Jurisdiction. The conference report on the bill author- izing the United States Supreme Court to issue writs of certiorari to the District Court of Appeals was then brought up. Mr. Bailey of Texas opposed the con- ference report, claiming that the commit- tee had gone outside of its province in drawing up the report. Mr. Henderson of Iowa said that as the conference committee had completed the bill, it puts the District of Columbia in the same category with each of the nine cir- cuits of the United States and its a writ of certiorari to issue here, ss it does in those circuits. Mr. Updegraff of Iowa asked Mr. Hen- pecan te this oa would = permit the ap- of @ case which nt had al+ Seats been entered: are Mr. Henderson said it would if the act of March 3, 1891, creating the Court of Ap- peals, would permit it. this bill the doors closed. At the time of going into secret session Senator Squire, who had fig- ured rather conspicuousiy during the whole night’s session, was insisting on_ being heard, and was protesting against motions being voted on by the Senate without his having a chance to declare whether or not he approved of the proposition. After the doors were closed and the public excluded he was permitted to have his say out. The Senate constructively remained in session until 6 o'clock, taking ‘a recess from that hour until 8, without opening the doors. Scenes im the Ho In the presence of a delighted &nd ap- plauding audience in the galleries, two score or more members of the House turned the House into a temporary concert hall last night and furnished a break in the mo- noteny of the proceedings. it was during a half-hour recess, awalit- ing the arrival of a conference report. The galleries were crowded and had a gala ap- pearance from the presence of many hand- somely-gowned ladies and of gentlemen in evening dress in the reserv Heries and on the diplomatic benches. While the business of the House was ata standstill there suddenly filed in from the lobby forty or fifty representatives, includ- ing some of the most prominent men in the House, who ranged themselves in the space in front of the Speaker's desk. At a signal they began to-sing, and for fifteen or twenty minutes they faised a rousing chorus in the historic hall. When they would finish one song oper would applaud and cry encore start the sing- ers off again. The climax was reached when they san “Dixte.”” One long, lanky southerner on the democratic side jumped upon his seat and gave a genuine “rebgl- yell,” which was taken up by others. 1 “s Then the galleries catléd for “Marching Through Georgia,” gud .,a certain well- known member of the Homme. who bears the scars of many battles, was pushed to the front, and, with his cane for a baton, led the chorus, which was swelled by several ex-confederate © bri rs?joining in the famous old Union battle ‘hymn, The ar- ‘Then Mr. Updegraff asked if Would not permit the appeal of the Chap- BEFORE OPENING C.
