A Lively Debate Between Sen- ators Edmunds and Beck. Senator Edmunds Sustains His Reputation as a Debater on Constitutional Questions, Davis and Mahone Vote With the Republicans. The Democrats Hold a Two Hours' Caucus After the Adjourn- ment of the Senate. SENATE. National Associated Press, WasHINGTON, October 10.—The sen- ate was called to order by Senator Harris, of Tennessee, at 11:45 a. m. After prayer Senator; Pendleton of- fered a resoulution declaring Senator Bayard president pro tem. Senator Edwards, of Vermont, pre- sented the credentinls of Senators elect Miller and Lapham, of New York, and Aldrich, of Rhiode Island, and read a rule making present action on the credentials in order atany time except during the reading of the journal. The credentials were read and then Mr. Edmunds moved that the senators elect be swore in by Senator Antho- ny, the oldest member of the senate. Senator Edmunds moved to amend Senator Pendleton’s motion by sub- stituting the words of his original resolution after the word ‘‘resolved” and addressed the senate in its sup- port. Mr. Edmunds contended that the action of the senate of 1855 was a precedent and that 1t was the duty of the scnate to give to every state a voice in the sclection of its president.

BEMIS' not responsible for the present ¢mdi- tion of affairs, and which had not sought to take advantage of the situa- tion last apring, were content to fel- low the law and had no apologies to make. Senators David Davis and Mahone voled aye on the subatitute. { Senator Platt was puired-#.C Tair, McPherson with his colleague, Sewell, and Walker with Hill, of Colorado. The vote resulted—Yeas 33, nays 34! Mr. Edmunds then moved, in order not to stifle the voice of the states, as ho said, to add to the original resolu- tion of Mr. Pendleton the words, “for this day.” A debate followed between Senators Bock, Edmunds, Garland and Mor- an, ¥ Edmunds cited the election of Lewis Cass for president pro tem for one day, which was done on motion of Hunter, of Virginia, prior to the swearing in of Koote, of Vermont, and only two sessions ago, while Sherman was unable to be present, it was woved that Eaton be president pro tem for one day. They could thus follow the law and a democratic vrecedent. Beck, of Kentucky, desired to say that the law of 1879 and the rules of the senate required the president pro tem of the senate to be elected prior to the swearing in of the new mem- bers and that they proposed to do no more or less. He had seen oftentimes modest and apparently harmless words do great mischief. He re- membered that the words “‘if any” in the electoral commission plafed a very important part in that transac- tion, If the president of the senate had followed the almost universal practice and allowed the election of a president pro tem there would have been no occasion for this session. They now proposed to follow the law. Nobody believed that both could be administered by unanimous consent, but they did not propose togive unan- imous consent to the proposition in contravention of law, Edmunds replied that no unani- mous consent had been asked, What they desired and that the country might be informed was on what ground the senators of the two states were denied admission to the senate. They had proposed to follow demo- cratic precedent if it bo necessary to accomplish their pur}muen, which could only be done by excluding the states from representation. He would re- mind them that they who take the sword shall perish by the sword. ‘Whatever was gathered by this meth- ed would prove the ashes of the bit- terest decoration. 5 Beck said great stress had been laid on’thealloged anamoiy of tho election of a president pro tem of the opposite party from that of the president of the United States. o said that President Taylor died on the Oth of June, 1850, and Millard Fillmore was sworn in on the same day. On the 11th of June Wm. R. King was elect- ed president pro tem of the senate and held office until another demo- cratic president pro tem, was chosen, Edmunds asked if the senator would be kind enough to say whether on that occasion ‘he party that had the majority refused to permit three senators to participate in the election of a president pro tem. Beck replied thatthe present major- ity was not through any act of that party, but the unusual course of the vice president and the foolish action of two senators from New York, & Aoal Estate Exchange 16th and Douglas Btreet, [Applause in the galleries, which the chair promptly rebuked]. cure any party advantage. tion, but if the report by true he had for the success of a faction of the'‘re- publican party. He went on to say that they had often been told that the voice of the constitutional majority was the voico of God. The constitu- tional majority was now on the dem- ocratic side, but he did not suppose the divine origin would be conceded. He read extracts from the former speeches of Edmunds, arguing that if the political complexion of the senate should change it was the right and duty of the majority to change the president pro tem. He (Vest) said amen to this and would vote for a democrat if the majority lasted but ten minutes, The motion of Edmunds was then he following vote— , nays 34, Davis voted af- ely and Mr. Edmunds re- sumed: “Theedict having been regis- tered in somo other place 1 fear that these two states shall go unrepreseut- ed and that the senate®will proceed to the election of a president pro tem. The next duty I have to perform is to move to strike out James F. Bayard, senator from the state of Delaware, and insert Henry B. Anthony, sena- tor from Rhode Island.” This amendment was rejected by a party vote, Davis, of Tllinois, not vo- ting. The origmal resolution was then agreed to by the same vote and An- thony and Pendleton were appointed to conduct Bayard to the chair. On taking the chair Mr. Bayard said: Sexators— I fully appreciate the honor paid me by this expression of confidence, and in assuming the duties of president pro tempore of the senate in obedionce to lawand in accordance with the rules of this body and the vote ot “the majority I should have the greatest misgivings of fultilling acceptably the requirements of this post were 1t not for the assurances that so long as 1 shall continue to exercise its }ufi\'l I shall recei"e your co-operation and friendly assistance which T now earn- estly and confidently ask at your hands. We are painfully aware of the unusual circumstances under which we meet and of a national bercave- went which has caused this special mecting of the senate. May it not be hoped that, touched by a sense of common sorrow and cherished by the grief that pervades every household in our great fam- ily of states, our proceeding shall be marked by a spirit of conces- sion and harmony and a_general con- sideration for the mutual difference of opinion and a high intent to perform our duties in a manner responsive to the demands of the occasion and best interest of our common country. With such hopes and in such a spirit, I now assume, and shall endeavor to perform, the duties of the high posi- tion'to which your favors has assigned me. Edinunds was the first senator to rise. He moved that Mr. Aldrich be sworn in, Pendleton said in order that the cre- dentials presented to-day might be ex- amined, he would move that the senate adjourn to 12 o'clock to-morrow. Edmunds demanded the yeas and nays which were ordered. He in- terrupted the roll call to ask if the senate had, after its organization ad- journed without notifying the presi- dent of its organization. Pendleton saidjhe had no wish to do so and would withdraw his motion for such action. The chair ruled that the roll call having begun it would only be sus- pended by unanimous consent. Edmunds refused to agree to a con- ditional withdrawal of the motion. The roll call then proceeded and the vote was announced: Yeas 35, noes 34, Davis, of Tllinois, voting with the republicans and the senate at 5 p. m., adjourned, DEMOCRATIC CAUCUS, ‘WasHiNGToN, October 10.—The democratic senators went into caucus immediately after the senate adjourn- ed, and after two hours’' session ad- pursued by Senator Davis was to se- | residence of Frank Ruhstaller, The foul | two children the president had uttered no invoca- jured in their efforts to save them.

S New York, October 10, —A fire this morning completely dest: the large cigar factory of Oarl | iy 212 and 514 East Beventeonth st oot, together with about a million Total Joes about $100,000;" insuranice' about £50,000. New York, October 10.— One of the largest conflagrations that has oc- curred in this city for some time broke out this eveming on the south- east corner of Thirty-second street and Lexington avenue, occupied as a carpenter shop. The building in which the fire originated adjoins the Fourth avenue railroad station, which occupies almost the entire block from Thirty-second to Thirty-third streets and from Fourth avenueto Lexington avenue. In less than five minutes after the flames were discovered the fire had extended to the stables and in less than fiftecn minutes the build- ing was ablaze. Second and third alarms were sent out in rapid succes- sion, but owing to lack of water and assisted by the stiff breeze blowing from the north the flames continue spreading in all directions and every reserve of the fire department was summoned to the scene. While the firemen were directing their cfforts to the stables the flames leaped across the street to Morrell's storing warehouse, a large five story building ocoupying about half a block on Thirty-second street and Fourth avenue in which was stored valuables, consisting of pictures, furniture, journed to 10 a. m, to-morrow.

He will consider the orgamzation as a whole and take the best men he can get for the respective places. In view of all the requirements of the posi- tion, it is generally believed that he will not encroach upon the member- ship of either body of congress, and that the various sections of the coun- try will have nu cause for complaint.
