PROCEEDINGS IN THE SENATE, Wasmizeron, D, 0., March 23.-- Mr. Goorge reported from the com- mittee on agriculture the original bill to make the d:partment of agriculture au executive department. The life saving service bill came up and salaries wero fixed at §1,800 for rintendents in the lake districts. Ir. Brown's proposition to make salarios of station keepors $600 instead of $800 was lost. Mr. Frye made a strong speech in reply to Messrs. Beck acd Williams, The latter, in a short speech, answered the criticism on his position, Mr. Vance offered an additional section, that in the selection of com- missioners representation be given to each interested agent and manufac- turer in proportion to the capital in- vested and the number of persons en- gaged therein. It was agreed to take a vote to-morrow, when Messrs. Miller (N. Y ) and Sherman will speak on the subjoct. At 3:35 p. m. tho senate wont into executive session and at 5:256 p. m. adjourned. The Indian appropriatiot. bill was reported, with amendments, 1n the execulive session. A. L. Morrison, of Illinois, was coufirmed marshal of New Mexico, and Enos J. Pennybacker collector of customs for North Carolina. The. session was protractsd by a fight over the nomination of Cooper for internal revenue collector of the Bixth North Carolina district. The vote stood 22 ayes to 24 nays on con- formation. The democrats and David Davis voted “no” and Messrs. Logan and Cameron withheld their votes. A motion to reconsider was resisted and filibuatering threatened and began. Finally the senate adjourned while the motion to reconsider the rejection was pending. ; * Watmough ‘and Seabury were not taken up. PROCEEDINGS IN THE HOUSE. The house resumed consideration of the Chinese bill at 10 a. m. Messrs Morse and Joyce opposed, the first contending it was un-Ameri- can and uncommercial, the latter that it violated the treaty. Messrs, Dannell and Orth also op- posed the bill, the former on the ground of violation of the treaty with China, the latter it was contrary to tho spirit of the constitutional amend- ments. Mr. Rosecrans, being ill, was ac- corded permission to have his views in support of the bill printed. Tae speaker appointed Dawson, of Towa, a stenographer of the house, vice Hayes, removed. The committee on ways and means reported favorably the bill permitting whisky to remain in bond an un- lunited period, limiting wastage to thirteen gallons a barrel. Megsrs. Sherman, Hazleton and Pachico fayored the an:i-Chinese bill beciuse California understood the subjoct best and asked it. Mr. Townshend, of Illinois, sup- ported it because it was a democratic messure, Mr. Robinson, of Massachusetts, spoko against tho bill after correcting the report that Chineso shoemakors had been driven out of Massachusetts, He proceeded to indicate the various smendments to reduce the time to ten yoars and omit the seotion mak- ing it apply to skilled laborers. He did nov think it was necessary to chanve t oussport system, as #ug rotection gested by Mr, Kasson, but hold that limiration of innnigration to twenty years would be a practical violation of the trcaty Mr. Cannon, of Illinois, spoke in support of the bill, He sed few on the floor would absolutely oppose it, aud he did not think the amendment improved it. . Mr. Pago closed the debate appesl- ing to the republican party, with which he had worked for years in the house, in support of the principles on bills as declared in its platform and the sentimonts of the late president. . The vote on the amendment roduc- ing the time to ten years stood, 100 yeas, 131 nays; that on the amend- ment reducing the time to fifteen years, 87 to 99.

The attendance was large of army and navy, government officers and their families. MISCELLANEOUS. The anti-polygamy bill has been signed. Rear-Admiral J. F. Spotts, com- manding the South Atlantic station, died on the 9th inst of appoplexy at Falkland Island, Patagonia, and was buried there, The star routes cases are adjourned unti! Saturday. Several important changes will be made in the quartermaster general’s department shortly. The order for Cadet Whittaker's dismissal from the service was issued to-day. Rear Adimiral Scott, retired list, is lying very low in this city. Republican senators think Teller’s name will surely be sent in as secre- tary of the interior department before long, but that delay may be caused by the urrangement of succession in the senate. Chairman Harris says that the re- port that the naval committee agreed to recommend $2,600,000 to complete monitors is incorrect. Another mem- ber says the recommendation was re- considered and the matter is still an open question. Another admits such matter was agreed on. Ligunor on National Associated Press. St. PauL, March 23 —Some time ago the United States ocourt con- demned a quantity of brandy intro- duced by Frank Patches iuto the northern” part of the state. This judgment was reversed by Judge Mec- Orary in the United States circuit court here to-day, who held that in the introduction of liquor no territory should be classed as Indian country unless within the limits of a reserva- tion. The defendant must have the. ' benefit of the doubt: existmg. in ..the case. The decision is important as settling a much disputed question in this section. e ————— A SALVATION SPREE. The Warlike Evangelists Again Taking Up Arms. i g’ The Knee-vrill, the Blood and Fire Brigade and Sharp Shooting by Soldiers in the Salvation Market, Puiladelphia Press. Thisstrange compound of blasphemy and sensation appeared in tho adver- tising columns of several of the city newspapers last Saturday : SaLvatioN Marker —Fifth street and Germantown avenue. The Sal- vation Army will hold a Real Salva- tion Spree to-morrow, led by Shout- iug Aunie, from Baltimore; Captain Pilgrim; Charlie, the Salvation Won- der; Captain Joe, the Salvation Car- penter, and Glory Milt, the Hallelujah Drummer. Knee-drill at 7 a. m., sharp, and at 8 p. m. aud 8 p. m. the blood and fire brigade. Sharp shoot- ing by the soldiers, The sanguinarg promises contained in this extraordinary notice, which contained hesidos that the recently allaycd Salvation Army fover was again breaking out in tho city, led a crowd to the socue of action’ yster day afternoon. Salvation market was | easily identified by the pro two stalwart policemen | the liberal display of in its windows, anncuncing “Salva tion for you at 8 oclock to- night.” Within, upon rude beachcs, the only seating accommodations of the hall, was scated a mixed company of 400 people, largely made up of curious lookera-on, with w liheral sprinkling of serious, devout looking here and there a or, dissipat chwhom the strange surroundings had awed into reflection. The con- trasts of dress and of countenance wore many and striking, Shortly after 8 o'clogk, noise with- out caused all eyes to turn toward the door-way, through which there immediately strode, at a brisk gait, a short, thick-set man of thirty, in cap and uniform, shouting u salva- tion army song at the top of his voico. Ho was followed by a *strang- gling procession of twenty-five men, women and boys, bearing aloft a red flag, and each vielng with the leader in power of lung, but with little at- tempt at agreement in tune. Mount- ing the platform, where seats had been reserved for them, the army entered upon the ‘‘spree” of the af- ternoon by singing from the salva- tion army song book a hymn with the refrain, ““Then a soldier I shall be Happy in Eternity,” in which many of the audience joined. Standing upon the front of the plat- | young nier nastics, wore the four leading war- riors of the “blood and fire brigade.” Captain Irons, Captain Light, Captain Pilgrim and Shouting Annie. The last named are women of about fifty yoars, both of swarthy com plexion, ovidently inured to all the atmorpheric variations of out-door cawpnigns. In speaking, they exhib- ited almost masculine power in voice aud gesture. Captaing Irons and Light are both undersized, but good shouters, and prone to_violent hand gymnastics. Captain Irons is reck- lessly free with his ‘“h’s,” and when he speaks the other Captamn stands at his side, supporting him with smiles and voluble “‘amens” and ‘‘hallelu- jaba."” THE KNER-DRILL, After the opening hymn, kneo-drill was gone through with, each of the leaders praying with unction, their companions punctuating their utter- ances with sighs and groans, contor- tions of face and body and agoaized interjeotions. The songs, however, gave fuller vent to those noisy pro- pensities which are a large part of the outfit of these enthusiasts. The words, while not always distinguished by that delicacy which might be looked for in apiritual song, are wonderfully direct and never forget to rhyme, ere is a couplet that was sung with much fervor: “My old comp i n, fare you well; T will not go with you to hell.” Another favorite hymu had this ref- erence to the gentleman below: “Ths devil and me we can't agree, For I hate him and he hates me."” This vindictive spint cropped out in another song, beginning: “We'll roll the old chariot along, But we won’t hung on behiud,” And then continuing: “If the devil's in the way we'll rollit over him,” These were sung with the swaying of the body, stamping of feet and clapping of hands, and that p eculia delirtum of ecstacy characteristic or the colored brethren. Occasionally, Shouting Annie would clasp Captain Irons’ hand, and others, catching the infection, would proceed to congratu- late their neighbors 1n a promiscuous fashion. Sandwiched between the songs were impassioned exhortations based on the sentiments just sung. Captain Pilgrim and Shouting Ann‘e were most vehement in their appeals, charging up and down the platform, throwing their hands aloft, and anon casting themselves into their chairs and burying their faces in their hands. At intervals they stopped short and broke in upon some familiar hymn - and thus the services alter- nated. “T'll Meet My Sainted Mother Over There” was' sung over and over again, finally moving many of the audience to tears—the only pa- thetic touch in the whole scene, TESTIMONY OF THE RECRUITS, When the new recruits ot the army were called to rise and give testimony, one poor fellow told how glad he was that the salvation army had come around. He did‘:ll"tl go hoine with a black on Saturday night any more. lhoth:{,.unphin Jn{,mghg'-.ylnflon carpenter, had been gathered in by the army. ‘I don’t suppose,” said he, “‘there ever was a worse man in Philadephia than me.” ‘“Never killed anybody, did you, Joe?’ interrupted a voice from the audience. ‘No, I never killed anybody, but I was an awful drunkard, and no drunkard can inherit the Kingdom of Heaven,” an- swered Joe, ““Praise the Lord !" shouted Shout- ing Annie, and immediately impro- vised: ‘“The sa'oon-keepers they're a-crying out 'Cause the Salvation Army is a-going about,” A young girl on the platform testi- fied: “T mean togo to heaven, and I don’t care what the people say; ““’7 can drag you to hell, but they can’t drag you out.” ‘‘Amen,” ‘‘Praise God,” “Hallelujah,” came from all over the platform, and then the en- thusiasm found vent in the strain: “I tumbled in the fountain And He washed my sins away.” Two young men staggered into the ball at this point und began inter- rupting the speakers with maudling blasphemy. “*God blees thoso young men,” said Shouting Annie, inmedi- ately starting up a song, Precently the young men subsided into a drunken stupor, only to awake more belligerent aud demonstrative than ever, One of them attempted to em- brace Captain Trons, but found him- self in the strong arms of & policoman who hurried him off to the station house The inovitable collection came sarly in the proccodings, Shouting Aunie passed the hat around among the with an appealing, * Ain't you got unything for the Lor . ladn 1 The harvest of cash was scant, and privcipally copper, “Charlie, the Salyvation Wonder,” proved to be a precocious youngster of ten years, He sang, “Only an Armor-bearer,” in a shrill, pi voice, and them proceeded to exhort the people with all th rnestness of a practiced pulpit orator. At the conclusion of the “Spreo,” Shouting Annie had a heated argu- ment with a sister who upbraided her for selling hymn-books find other lit- erature on Sunday., ““It's all for the Lord,” explained Annie, but her questioner was still unsatisfied, and 100k her leave of the shouting sister, with a vague idea that somebody else was the recipient of these Sunday gains.
