Saturday night a freight’ car labelled “‘powder,” but containing hundreds of pounds of nitro-glycerine and Fuller's regard to Kennedy's speech, Mr. Grosvenor of Ohio, raised the point of order that the resolution was not in order, T'he timo to have called Kennedy to order was when he delivered the speech, Mr. Enloe contended that Kennedy had no more right to make a personal attack upon a member of the senate than he (Euloe) bad to state that the sveaker was corrupt or the president a criminal. It was due to thehouse that no utterances reflecting upon the senate should be admitted into the record. Mr. Bayne of Pennsylvania concurred in the remarks of Mr. Enloe and trusted in the interest of what was right, of what was due % the house in lhonor of itself that no technicality should be allowed to come in the way of condemuing the utterances of the gentleman from Ohio. Mr. Grosvenor said he made the point of order because he belie that whatever ac- tion the house took should be in the regular way. ‘Mr. Bayne offered anameniment toEnloe's resolution, directing the public printer to ex- clude Keanedy's speech from the record.

The house committee on appropriations to- day, with only two dissenting votes, decided to recommend to the house nou-concurrence in the senate amendment to the general de- ficiency bill making an_ apropriation for the payment of the French spoliation claims. These claims have been pending_ before congress for half a cen- tury, have been made the subject of more than fifty favorable reports in both houses of congress, have passed one houso fa one shape or anothera number of times, and onceat least get as far us the white house where they met the presidential veto, These claims are not ouly founded on justice, but in _the present wpresent the judement of the of claims, and in refusing to appro- priate money 1o pay them congress puts it~ selfin the “attitude of repudiation of the judgment of a courtof its own establishing, Representative Cannon, chaitman of the o ce on appropriations, said today that s not prepared to say that the claims ought not to be paid, and that his objection to attaching them to the general deficiency bill was that o do so would seta precedent which he feared would return to plague congress, Their place is in a bill by themselves, objection was that he had not imself familiar b all the questions involved in - connection with the claims, and that to mak thor study of them was impossible at this late day in the session, APID PROGRESS ON THE TARIFF, Unexpect. id prozrces was made with the tar and the probabili- ties are now is the expectation of poth Messr, and Aldrich, that tho biil will be v reportin senate from the conference commit theend of the we ‘I'he reason forthe haste that was shown by the committecon ways and means aud the committee on rules was dueto a desire to utilize the presence of a o in aisposing of the tariff bill and the rol g clection cases as speedily as possi- bl us the expectation of those who de- vised and enginecred the action of the two committees that the Langston-Venable elec- tion case would be disposed of this afternoon after the twohours debate on the taviff bill had been concluded, butthe injection of Mr. Euloe’s resolution, ox pressing the regret of the bouse at the outbreak of Rep- resentative Kennedy aminst Senator Quay September 3, prevented the election case Trom comingg up.

The republican conferes on the purt of the senate are desirous that Governor Gear shall have a place for the reason thatit is understood he isnow in favor of fixing the dividing lines between free and dutible sugars at No. 13 stndard instead ot No, 16, which the house adopted. The senate changed it to No. 13 and imposed a duty on the grades between N 13 and 16 in order, as they say, to preserve the sugar re- fining industry from total extinction and also tomake it” possiblo for the producers of beet sugar to find a sale for their stuff, All beet sugars will grade between Nos, 13 and 16, it is said, and if these grades were admitted free of duty it is feared that the production aud refining of sugar from beets, which it was intended to encouruge by payiug a bounty, would receive adeath blow. Senator Paddock of Nebraska, whose state is highly interested in the beet sugar sched- ule, has notified the senate conferces that the dividing linebetween free and dutiable sugars is at No. 16, There are some six republican senators who will vote aguinstagreeing to the conference woport. THERE WILL BE SOME FUN YET.
