The amendment was strenuously opposed by Messrs, Sherman and Higgins, and stoutly defended and ad- voeated by Messrs. Palmer, Morgan und Turpie. When the morning hour expired the bill and amendment went over without action and the bill resumed its place on tue wlendar, ST Protests Against tiie Anti-Option BuL The auti-option bill occupied tho attention #f the senate during the rest of the afternoon, Mr, Hansbrongh made an argument in favor of it and Mr. Hiscock au argument in opposition, 5 ’l'llu bill is to be taken up after the reading of the journal on Monday, when Mr. George 15 to make an argumontin 1ts support. Remonstrances against the passado of the anti-option bill were presented by Mr, Cul- lom from Springfield and Rock Island, Til., sizned by bankers, merchants, business men aud fai rs, and by Mr. Davis from the bankers and busio men of Minneapolis. The latter was signed by tho presidents of the National Bank of Commcrce, First National bank, City bank and Irish-Ameri- can bunk, It expresses fears of the effects of the bill upon the value of the great farm roducts of the country und upon the great usiness interests of the great northwest. An accompauying note states that the senti- mert aguinst the vil! is about unanimous. Mr, Sherman troduced a oill for the ercation of a tribunal on internatioual rela- tions. Referred. Mr. Morgan introduced a bill to provide for government control of the Union and Central Pacific Rwiroad companies until their debts to the government are fully pald up or secured. Referred. A rewolution offered by Mr. Sherman in- structing the committee on foreign relations to cortinue s investigation s to the Nica- ragun Canal company was agreed to, Anti-Option BilL Hunsbrough Favors the Mr. Hunsbrough, in addressing che senato mn favor of the anti-option bill, said he ba- licved that tne measuro came within the “igeneral welfare clause? of the constitution, and thatif enacted into law 1t would not only b sustained by the courts, but 1t would compiete the system which had’ grown up in the country in the last few years and under which combinations of men and somecties one man could sell in u single day in fictitious lots ten times the total anuual yield of the oountry. Mr. Hiscock opposed the bill. Who were the men, be asked, who were ancthmatized 8nd characterized as criminals by those who were pressiug this billt In New York they were the mercnants, the capitalists, the men who had devcloped the greatest growing west, which now complaired against their eommercial wethods. Their money, their enterprise, their genius, had built up grest lines of transportation and had built (so to B4y) ten new states, They were the pioneers of progress in this couutry, as merchauts wero in every civilized nation, and yet these men were characterized as common gamblers who debauched the young and - who tempted men to embezzlement, Mr. Wasnburn denied that he had ever in- cluded such men in his denunciation. He had referred only to men who had no capital and who sold whaut they had not eot. Trampled Down the Law of the Country, Die. Hiscock said that these men, whom be had described, from the stato of Now York aud the state of Minuesota, were pro- 1esting to congress against the bill, and he referred to the petition from the bankers of Minneapolis, presentea today by Mr. Davis, expressing fears for the effect of the bill on tho value of the great agriculturul products nud general business interests of the greot northwest, This bill, be continued. was the basis of the most gigavtic trustever con- ceived by humau intelligence, and it woutd Bweop iuto political oblivien every mun who had promoted it. It tramplea down tho common law of the country, It struck at individual liberty; 1t struck at the right of individuals ' to make contracts. That was its spirit and its purpose. Heo believed that 1t was fraught with the greatest danger, inasmuch as it would make a precedent for allowing con- gress to wield the power of Jove over the American people. Uunder the taxing power congress could rule o1 ruin every individual and communitv and state in the union, ‘The bill would be the basis of one of the most cruel and rapacious trusts and oppressions of the people that ever existea among any peoie. ‘T'he bill went over until Monday. Mr, F'rye, from ihe committee on com- merce, reported @ bill approvriating £250,000 for the construction of & ship canal 0 connect tho waters of lakes Union and ‘Wasbington with Puget sound, and $200,- 000 for facilitating transportation between Luko Washington and Pugot sound, and it was pla on the caleadar, Aajourned.

WORLD'S FAIR MATTERS, Chances of Securlag the $5,000,000 Appro- priation Discussed, Wasmixaroy, D. C., July 23.—Speaker Crisp said this afternoon that the World's fair appropriation would not come up in the bouse until Tuesday. It is the understand- ing that the conferoes of the sundry civil bill will muke their roport to the house on Monday, but that they will not call it up until the following day, the report going overto enable it to be printed in the Con- gressional Record beforo its consideration is begun in the housa. This program will en- ablo the majority in the house to devote most of Monday to the Raum pension office ra- port. There aro over 300 awendments to the sundry civil bill, and as thoy will bo consid- ered in order, 1t will be possible for tho op- position to eive ,considerable trouble avd, perhaps, cause a hittle delay in reaching tho World's fair amesdments, Expect to Win on the “Show Down After a decisive voto has been obtained 1n the house on_the World’s fair bill there will bo little trouble over other points in tho re- port, and the disposition will be to finish up the bill as quickly as possible, The Worla's fair managers expect to have a slight major- ity on tho *'show down™ oa the appropria- 1, und if they have such a majority with a guorum voting it of course settles the mat- ter, and it is aimost equally cortain that 1f the vote should show a clear and decisive majority of the house against the approprintion, the senato would yield something, “Chero is one thing, however, that is dis- turning the World's fair managers and mem- Lers who are auxious for final adjournment, and that is that & quorum may not vote on tho World's fair item on Tuesday. A vigor- ous cffort is being made to recall absentees aud to hold for a fow days longer the mem- bors now in_the city, but chating to get out of town. One active World's fair worker said this morning that he was afraid, with all the members present in the house casting their votes, a quorum might not be dis- closed. It' 18 certain somo mombers would raise the point of no guorum should such havpen to be the case. ‘Ihe World's fair man udded they had kept a great many of their friends hero on the assurance that the matter would reach a vote tnis week, ana_now somo of them, he teared, would ieave town on the afternoon and evening trams. This would make nceessary a call of the houss and de- lay final action. Chances for a Quorum, There are not a_great many members in the house at one time these hot days, but on u vote many new faces appear, and yetn vote showeil 200 members present and vot- ing. This would iudicate that, barring the possibility of a filibustor by southern niem- bers, which may or may not occur, and will continue to be a matter of spceulation until the last moment, a quorum will be here on Thursday even though some of Lhose now in the city take their departure. It s expected that some additionsl mewbers will arrive in the city in time to vote Tuesday aud render possiblo an adjournmert of congress next weck, aud the fact that the Ruum’ report is reudy to be calied up will tond to awell the congressional attendance, the adoption of the resolution urging Commissioner Raum’s the dismissal beiog in party policy. liue of dewocratic General Ontes Resents th Lubor Leud Wasuixaroy, D, C,, July ‘There was a lively scene this morning iu the house just before its assembling, and Jobn Devlin of the executive committee of the Knights of Labor came near gettiog a good blow from G.

WasniNgroy, D. C., July 23.—The judiclary committee of the senate managed to geta quorum and a meoting this morning. The same six members who were present yester- any again attended the sussion today. Con- trary to expectation fioal action was not taken on the vomination of Mr. Shiras to be assoclate justice of the supreme court, and the committee, after discussing the matter for hulf an hour, adjourned to meet Monday. The attituae of the democratic members of the committee has not yet been fully defined and it is now impossiblo to say how they will vote on the question of reporting the nomiuation to the senate favorubly or whether they will permit any report to be made, It may be noted in this connection thit the seunte, by @ majority vote, may at Gny time discharge the committée from further consideration of the nomination and tuke the matter in its own bands, Among the conservative senators, however, there i of course, & strong indisposition to adopting 1his radical course except in an emergoucy, and it is not likely to be done immeaiately in view of the fact that the friends of Mr. Shiras feel a growing confidence in thel ability 10 secure favorable action upon the nomination.
