The last osbinet session n::l‘d' ‘the present administration, was held yes- terday afternoon. THE EXTRA SESSION, The first Cleveland troops which accompanied Garfield as an escort ar- rived on another section of the train on which he arrived, and at once pro- coeded to their quarters. Gen. Gar- Seld, asccompanied by his wife, called at the executive mansion shortly after eleven o'clock, and joined the presi- dent and his faaily in their private paclor shortly afterward. The presi ent and Gen. Garfield retired for a brief consultation on the subject of convening the senate in extra session, for the fourth of March. The presl: dent will accordingly issue his procia- Gen. Garfield deems it proper that the usual cus- toms should b> observed in convening the extra session. The republicans can easily reorganizs the senate after the new senator from Wisconsin has arrived. It is stated, however, that the democrats will seccre an adjourn- ment_before that time, and prevent the republicans from securing control until December next, trusting that something or other may trauspire in the meantime to prevent it even at that time. CABINET MATTERS. Neithor Conkling or Blsine were in their seats to-day, and this gave rise to & report that they were in consul- tation with Garfield. It is expected cabinet matters will come to a crisis epeedily. A prominent senator sald he expected st least fcur cabinet places would be settled by Wednes- day evening, the special execative session of the senate _hdving baen called for Friday next. Itlis be- lieved that the president-elect has vir- tually determined upon several mem- bers of his csbinet, and that their names will be cant in at once. Itis rumored that Senator Windom will be secrotary of the treasury, and there are many resons for believing the ramor not to be wholly groundless. It s known that tho new secretary must come from the west, and Sena- tor Windom is as well fitted for the position as any candidste mentioned from that rection. Itis also knowa that Mr. Garfield does not wish to bring into his administration any of the quarrels of the present one, aud the selection of Mr. Windom can give no offense to any wing of the party. He was himself a candidate for the presideniial nomination before the convention which selected Garfield, porters of any of the candidates. With hls known sympathy with the views of the president-elect in money matters, thers seems to be no good reason to doubt that"he will be made Garfield's minister of finance. CONGRESEMEN INTERVIEWED ON THE FUNDING BILL. Efforts were made last night to ob- tain some expression of opinion from congressmen on the funding bill, with the following result: Said Mr. Robinson, of Mass.: ~ T am, of course, in favor of a 3} per cent refandiug bond, but if Mr. Oarl- iele's section was eliminated from the present bill, I don’t think it would be » bad measure.” 8aid Mr. Feye, of Malne: “We can’t refund the debt of 1881 at 3 per cent. 1 adhere to my original opin- ion to that effect. The loan author- If the rate was 33 per cent, and the Carlisle section was out, it would be a good bill.” Said Mr. Hawley, of Conn.: “I am for the 3 per cont bond, of course; bat I do not approve of the 3 per cent ing bill.” Said Mr. Tucker, of Va.: ‘‘Wecan refund at 3 per cent without diffical- ty. The present bill is a good one, and ts execation will be easy.” Ssid Mr. Carlisle, of Ky.: ““With. oat doubt a3 per cent bond will float atpar” There is excellent authority for the statement that the president will veto the funding bill, should it be sent to him in the present shape, at loast such Is his determination at this time. Uptoalate hour yesterday aiter- noon Gen. Garfield refuscd to receive visitors, although a number called. Secretary Sherman did not tender his resignation yesterday, but an- mounced that he will do so on Tours- day. It has been determined to hold a d | special meeting of the cabinet on Thuradsy morning,. All yesterday aflernoon the mafn parlors of ths Rggs house, occupied by Gen and Mus. thronged by distinguished statesmen and politicians, who come to pay thelr respects to the president elect. HOUSE. Special diepatch to Tes Ban Wasmisorox, D. C., March 1. —The deficicncy appropria‘ion bill, reported and crdered priated, appro- pristed over £4,000,000. The sgri. cultural appropriation bill was re- ported, gud the houte comcucred in the senate amendment increasing the aggregate amount $25,000. The bill now goes to the prerident. Further conference was ordered on the district of Columbia appropria- tlon bill; aleo a conference on - the fortifieation appropristion bills. An attempt was made to takeup the fanding bill, but supporters of the apportionment bill antagonized it. A vote wax taken resulting in favor of golng on with the business on the ey 's table. The vote stood 164 After a long debate on polnts of order, the conference report on the river and harbor bill was presented, snd s » privilege had precedence. The showed an incresse by sen- Garfield, were | agreed agalnet the fanding bill was resumed, Conger leading opposition, Very littlo business was_transacied during the afternoon seesion besides disposing of house billa with senate amendments. Fillibustering again commenced at the beginning of the night session, and continued for some time. Finally the amendmenta relating to the funding bill were reached. This had been patiently awaited, and not only absorbed the atteution of the House, but slso of the lobby aud the many outsiders sll day. Its fate is the one thems of discussion, both in- side and ontside of the house. Corri- dors of the hotels have been crowded all day, and to-night the crowd does not seem to have lessened. Many ‘banking houses hase agents hero who use the telegraph almast continuaily to keep their employers informed con- cerning every move that is made at this nour. It is thought that the bill will pass, but In what shaps can not be foretold. It may_be o amended as to induce the presideat to sign it. The frionds of tke bill are confident, #nd seem determined to force its pas- sage. Its opponents may possibly absndon the fight, trusting to delays and amendments in the senate, or ex- ecutive veto to kill it altcgether. After the smendments had been offered, the speaker inquired whother separate votes were demanded. r. Congor eaid he would demand separate votes on all the smend- ments. Mr. Mills suggested that separato votes would hardly be demanded on itoms upon which they had allowed. Mr. Conger replied that there might be a difference of opinion about ther, and demanded a separate vote on the amendment that no treasary noto of a less denomination than $100 shall be replstored, but it was azreed to. Mr. Conger also demanded a sepa- rate vote on the amendment provid- Ing that the cost of issuing the new notes should not exceed half of one per cent. The house bill recom- mended one quarter of one per cent. The amendment was retained. Mr. De La Matyr offered a motion to recommit the bill to the committeo on ways and means with instructions 10 incorporate the mame to tho 2lst amendment; that whenever any na- tional banking sssociation shall 80 re- tire ite circulution in whole orin part, as fprovided by law, It shall be the duty of the secretary of the treasury to csuse to- bo lesucd and placed in circulation legal tenders of like amount, and the national bank which shsll have diminished its circu- tion after September, 1881, shall be eatitled to increase the amount cf its circalation. The amendment was ruled out on the ground that it was gormane to the smendment to which it was proposed. Mr. Tacker, on behalf of the com- mittee, offered an_smendment st ing out and Inserting certain words in the last clauso of - tho lst section, 20 as to make it read as fcllows: “And if it shali happen that more than the entire amount_of said bonds and treasary notcs, or either of them, has been subscribed within said thir- ty days, he shall award the full smount subseribed to all peraons who shall have made bonafide subscrip- tlons in the order of time of such sub- serlptions at rates most advantageous to the United States.” This was objected to—yeas 13, nays 111, and the amendment of the sen- ate was retrined. The senate amend- ment proposes that the secretary shall award the full smount subscribed to all perscns who have made bonafide subscription to the sum of $2,000, or less, and the residue rateable among the subscribers In proportion to the amount respectively subscribed. Mr. Springer moved jo reconeider the vote last takeny and to lay that motlon on the table. Mr. Conger demanded the yeas and nays. The yeas and nays wero ordered, and the motion to table was agreed to by 110 to 96. Mr. Conger then moved to adjourn, and after roll call a recess until 10 30 was taken. ‘When the honse reassembled it was. found impossible to got a quorum, and at 12:45 a recess was taken until 10 a. m. to-morrow.

The crowd at tho depot was not so large nor enthusiastic as might have been expected, owing to the fact that the exact hour of errival was not gen- erally known, and because of cold and also because Gen. Garfield nad expressed a wish that theroshonld be no formal demonstration at the depot. His reception was of a very informsl character, a committee of cltizens be- ing the only body to receive him. A detachment of police kept the passage way open through the crowd, and when Gen. Garfleld alighted from the tralo he was escorted to his car- risge. He walked through the de- pot srm in arm with his mother, who was at once taken in charge by Webb C. Hayes.
