WasniNgron, February 7.—Mr. Coke was awarded the floor for a speech on the tariff, the Morrill com- mission bill being taken up to allow him to speak. Senator Coke spoke three hours, declaring that protection meant monopoly and wholesale rob- bery of the people, and urging that the best iuterests of the country de- manded the adoption of a tarifl for revenue only. The bill for the relief of Theoplius Chandler, late sub treasurer at Bos- ton, was passed. It relieves him from all liability on ‘account of Uni- ted States funds amounting to 000 loaned by one of his subordin- ates to a bank a little over a year ago. Mr. Cameron (Wis.) called up the bill authorizing the secretary of the interior to ascertain and provide for the payment of amounts due citizens tor supplies furmshed the Sioux or Dakota Indians of Minnesota, subse- quent to August, 1868, and prior to the massacre 1 1862. The sum in- volved is about $12,000. Mr. Dawes urged the measure should be referred to the committee on Indiau affairs. No conclusion had been reached when at 4:45 p. m. the senate adjourned. PROCEEDINGS IN THE HOUSE. Mr. Prescott spoke 45 minutes on the apportionment bill as reported from the census committee of which he is chairman, and said the new method recommended by Chief Clerk Seaton had been adopted and was more nearly just than the old. It gave one additional member to Penn- sylvania aud Illinois, which by the old system would go to Colorado, Florida and Rhode Island, and argued in favor of the bill on the basis of proportion, wealth ard taxes paid by each state. : Mr. Robinson (Mass.) said when he examined theresult of the two systems and found that by the new Florida, California and Rhode Island must give upa member each to Lilinois, New York and Pennsylvania, he began to suspect the proposed new method not to be a just one. He argued that by the new method each represented 145,000, when the one aliotfed to Rhae Tsland represented 276,000. He favored the old system of appor- tionment, without a change in mem- TS, Mr: Miller denounced the so-called system of apportionment as unjust,un- constitutional and an outrage on the the people. His remarks were warm- ly applauded. Mr. Horr said it was outrageous, Common sense favored the old sys- tem, being the apportionment and fix- ing the number of representatives at 321, He criticised the argument of Mr. Prescott that the wealth of New York should be quoted when the question of representation is being considered. [Applause. ] Mr. Chace also spoke against the new method. Adjourned at b p. m. CAPITAL NOTES. MISCELLANEOES. Wasiizaron, February 7.

Jol. Cook represented the government. The prosecution produced in court 25,000 papers, filling four large clothes baskets. Wilson proposed to show by these papers that other con- tractors pursued the same practice Cabell, who was, in fact, following in a beaten path. He submitted that there was no intent to defraud. Cook objected to all pipers and ar- ued adainst their admission, Col 'otten, for the defense, heldthat the papers were admissable as evidence, The court excluded the papers on the ground that they were not competent evidence. At 2:40 the court ad- journed until Thupsday, when final arguments in the case will be pre sented. It is generally conceded, even by the defense, that the case will be sent to the grand jury.

Cutcaco, February 7.—Mr. Chas Sloan, route agent of the American Expross company at Cedar Kapids, arrived in Chicago to-day and tells of an unsuccessful attempt made on Monday to rob an express car on the newly opened Tama branch of the Chicago & Northwestern railroad. The express car was in chargo of Mes senger Russell. While the conductor and depot agent were engaged in switching at Bancroft, the robber knocked on the door of the car, and, on its being opencd, ecompelled Russell to turn our the light. He then presented a revolver and ordered the messenger to stop aside. He then with the aid of a dark lantern rum- aged the bot and safe, the messen- gor opening the latter while the re- volver was_ pointed dircctly at his head. Owing to the fact that this run has just been oponed very little money was carried at any time and on this occasion the safe was cmpty.

THEIR RECORDS. NULLIVAN. Sullivan was born in Treland, and came to this country when quite young, his parents first locating in New York city, and they migrating to Bosto! He is about twenty-six yonrs of age, and whilo he has nevor boen engaged 1n a regular prize fight with bure knuckles and bare broasts, he has fought often with hard and blac! gloves. One of theso battles, which he won, took place in a hall on Vine stroet in this city, his opponent being Prof. J. €. Donaldson. Sullivan, [ tighting four rounds under the rules preseribed by the marquis of Quecnsbury, completely floored his opponent. Since that time he has appeared in oncounters with Goss and others, aud lag invariably come off best. Heo is a man more than six foet in height, has o wonderful reach, and is onoe of the most active men that ever chose the business for a profession. He has been training near Carrollton, La., | under the auspices of Joo Gons and | others, and is said to be in the best of condition. RYAN, Paddy Ryan, whilonot as large or as heavy as Sullivan, has had some experience in the ring, he and old Jee Goss having fought near Pittshurg some time ago. Ryan whippod G, but the achievement was not a bril- liant one, from the fact thav Goss was an old man, was 8o fat that he could scarcely handle himself, and that it took ocighty-five rounds and nearly two hours’ time for Ryan to geb away with him. He was at one time mastched to fight Jonuny Dwyer, but the event never vccurred. He, like Sullivan, is comparatively a novice, never having had any great o sperience in the ring, He s about six foet in leight, and when in condi%on would weigh probably 180 to 186, pounds.

The spoakor courteously informed Mr, Bradlaugh that the resolution would bo discussed and requested him to withdraw during the discussion, Mr. Bradlaugh retired, but before ®oing 80 asked that the house would hear him before deciding the case. Tmme- diately upon his retirement debate on Sir S d Northeote's motion be- g, Sie Win, Vornon Hareourt op- posed the motion in n strong speech. He contonded that the question of the of the oath was one to be de- vided by law. Tho Princo of Wales was present in the poers’ gallery during the debate. Bradlaugh, in asking to take his soat, claimed ho was unimpeachable and hoped the house would act with fairness and justico. Ho declaved if ho took the oath he would consider it s binding on his conscience as any member ot the house, but if they re- fused to administor it ho was willing to wait six week for passing a bill ontitling members to either aflirm or take the oath. Then he should stand for ro-election in his district and would only accopt dismissal at the hands of his constituents.
