WASHINGTON, June 3.—Mr. Dawes pre- sented a petition from the city council of Glonocester, Mass., which was appropriately referred, praying for retaliation on the Cunadian government for the seizure of American fishing vessels. Mr. Dawes said the entire absence of any armed vessel of the United States in those waters to protect our fishermen in the exercise of lawful com- merce led him to inquire whether that ab- sence was from any lack of power in the premises, AMr. Edmunds replied that legislation was not necessary, excent, perhaps, the appropria- tion of money to enable the president of the United States, wno is the commander in chief of our ariies and navies, to send out any vessel of the United Statesif we happen to have one that could swim. Mr. Hale said that the orders alleged to Canadian authorities affecting the ki fisheries of the Canadian people thiemselves and thely business in her- rings with the people in Maine scemed to him the gravest matter that appeared on - {he horizon, He believed the people of the United States generally were looking with anxiety to see the adinini on comne up to what had been the intention of congress, The senate then took up the bill providing for the taxation of 1ailroad grant lands, and after some debate Mr. Hoar, not wishing to rrass the Lill, withdrew(his amendment, limiting purchases under the act to 640 acres. Atter further debate the bill passed Mr. Van Wyek called up the house bill on ame subject, and on his iotion the com- mittee on public lands was discharged from its further consideration. He then moved the senate bill as an amendment in the nature of a substitute to the hounse bill, Agreea t A committee of conference was then ordered into whos ands the bill was at once put.

What the English Press Has To Say Concerning Blaine's Speech and America's Attitude—The Plumed Knight Speaks Opposing Ho Rule, LoxDoy, June 3.—One hundred non-con- formist ministers of Derby and Nottmgham signed an address of confidence in Glad- stone’s Irish policy. Rev. Spurgeon, one of the signers, has written a second letter in which he asks if it1s impossible for those desirous for the welfare of Ireland and the unity of the empire to devise a more ac- ceptable scheme? I cannot,” says Spur- geon, *look forward with complacency upon the possibility ot Ulsterines being abandoned and of an established Irish Catholic chureh, yet thesc are by no means the greatest evils we forsee in the near future should the sug- gested policy become a tact, BLAINE'S GREAT SIN, The Times, commenting on Blaine’s Port- land speech, says: ‘“Blaine may or may not cateh the Irish vote by a performance such as Tuesday’s speech, and sowin the prize which fully &8 much on’ personal as on polit grounds _has been snatched from him once and again, but we refuse to believe that he is ignosant at his presumptious rant repr sents the honest and independent reflection of Americ It is peculiarly advisable that he should poseas an advoeate of a plan which he supposed, quite wrongly, of course, would place Ireland in the position of a state of American union. He has been_conspicu- ous for some reasons which now make hin a flatterer of the Irish as In the bloody shirt campaign agalnst southern states irights, and it any southern state would now attempt to deprive the negroes of suffrage he would be the fivst to favor a_settlement of that local affair by armed Interference of the central overn- ment. His history is almost on a par with his reasoning which deserves to be class with Vernon Harcourt's latest contribution, whereon Leckey has something to say.” RELIGIOUS ROT, What Leckey has to say Is contained in another column of the” ‘Limes in the form of a letter. This is a cism of Sir Willlam’s argume; the home rule measure proposed b stone was aimed at simply a revival of Henry Grattan’s Irish parfiament. Leckey says the argument is absurd. Grattan’s pai liament, Leckey contends, piaced the govern- ment of Ireland i the hands of the Prote tant gen g } the closest ties of interest and sentiment. They were, "added Leckey, prom- inent representatives of property, whose political power it has been Gladstone's ste object to destroy. The effort of his s would be to shove the government of Ire into the hands of men_hitherto the avowed eneniies of both property and empire. BLAIN PLAINS, AvGusTa, Me, June 3.—The Kennebee Journal this morning publishes a letter from Blaine denying that in his recent speech at Portland he had applied the words, “impu- dent,” olent” ana “brutal” to Lord lisbury.

Van Wyck Outwits the Opponents of the A‘ Railroad Land Tax Bill, IT GOES THROUGH THE SENATE And 1s Certain of P'assage In the House—The Oleomargarine Bill Doomed to Death In the Senate, Worked by Strategy. Wasmsaron, June [Special to the Ber.|—Senator Van Wyek gave uninistal ble evidence to-day of a remarkable tacticien, He foreed through the senate his bl requie- ing railroad compantes to pay a tax upon the land granted them by the government and to compel them to pav the government the costs ot surveying,selecting and conveying the land granted toaid in the eonstruction ot theie lines, Not only did he do this, but he put the bill in shape to guarantee an fnmediato pas- sage by the house. This e did by a shrewd parliamentary movement. Tt has been the hope of the opponents of this bill that they could delay it so long in the senate that it would not be reached during this congros for consideration in the house. Just before the main question was put upon the bill in the senate this afternoon, and after all the amendinents offered had beon disposed of, M. Van Wyek took up a bill passed by the house some time ago, and similar in_its pro- visions except that it only affectyd the Central and Union Pacifie. He. moved to strike out all of the louse bill excepting the enacting clause and substitute the bill then before the senate Ihat was agreed to, and he then moved to strike out the title of the house vill. ‘T'his was. also agreed to, the opponents of the senate bill secming not to discover what Mr. Van Wyek was aiming at. These movements simply put the bill in the shape of an amended house bill, which would require & conference committee. Mr Van Wyek: asked for a conference committee, which wa of conrse granted, L the consequence will be that hisoriginal senate bill will be quickl adopted by the house. Mr. Van Wyek's worl is the source of a good deal of talk among the senators to-night, ‘The bill will have the effect of turning millions into the t of the states and territories annuall THE ORDER OF BUSINESS, A meeting of Speaker Carlisle and the chalrmen of the house committees is called for to-marrow afternoon to order of busines It will d b the legislative, excentive and judic the naval appropriation bills, The latter 98 the last one of the ;u)’\mw‘\.\lluu bills outside of the rezular committee, and when it is dis- posed of the Morrson tarift bl will be called up.
