The buls wero passed. They provide for the erection of public building at tho following places among otherss Cedar Rapids, la., and Fremont, Neb. A test was made this morning of the new fire alar aparatus in the white house and of the efliciency of the district fire de- partment. Both were highly satisfactory. Mr. Enloe, a8 & matter of privilege, moved the discharge of the committee on invalid pensfons from further corkidaration of the resolution calling on the secretary of the in- torior for the ovidence taken and reported 10 him by the committee appointed to inves- tigats the management of Lhe pension ofY under Commissioner ‘Tanner.

If inere had been robbery and cor ruption let the men who were concerned 1o in it be consigned to eternal infamy.
