Among the bills reported from committees and placed on the calendar were the following: Two for the establishment and maintenance of Indian industrial schools in Michigan and South Dakota, FISH IN THE POTOMAC. To continue in force the Sprovisions of the act of March 2, 1885, to protect the fish in the Potomac river and to provide a spawning ground for shad and herring in the Potomac. For a light house on St. Mary's Island, Alaska. To extend to Tampa, Fla., the privilege of immediate transportation of unappraised mer- chandise, BULE EIGHT. Mr. Sherman offered a resolution providing that tomorrow the Senate will proceed to busi- ness on the calendar under rule 8 (unobjected matters) and continue that business until ad- journment or an executive session. He asked Peo consent for immediate considera- jon, Mr. Hoar questioned the wisdom of tho eighth rule, inasmuch as under it public and ee business of importance was frequently lefeated by a single objection. Mr. Harris said that under the eighth rule there was a greater dispatch of business than there ever had been before its adoption or than would be if the rule was abrogated. Mr. Ingalls objected to the immediate con- sideration of the resolution and Mr. Sherman gave notiée that he would ask for its consider- ation tomorrow. On motion of Mr. Dolph the Senate bill ap- propriating $500,000 for a public building in Portland, Ore., was taken from the calendar and passed, THE OKLAHOMA BILL, The Senate resumed the consideration of the bill to provide a temporary government for the territory of Oklahoma, the pending question being Mr. Plumb’s amendment to comprise No Man’s Land within the new territory. Mr. Vest again spoke in favor of the amend- ment. While he Gy eset with Mr. Ingalls as to the improved condition of the five civilized tribes, Senators ought he said, as practical legislators, to look deliberately to the inevitable and to what was taught by past experience in relation to the region lying west of Indian ter- ritory, He had never said (as Mr. Ingalls intimated) that No Man’s Land was a refuge for outlaws, but he asserted that, so far as the laws of prop- erty were concerned, No Man’s Land was in an anomalous and unsatisfactory condition; and 80, indeed, was the whole Indian territory, which had been characterized by the Supreme Court as AN “INDEPENDENT DEPENDENCY,” whatever that mightmean. Without injustice to the Indians, without any proposition to de- spoil them, with full intention to pay them a fair price for the Cherokee outlet, he thought that the best thing that could be done was to add No Man’s Land to the territory of Oklahoma, He favored the appointment of a new commission, the removal of the lim- itation of $1.25 an acre and _ the authorizing of the commissien to negotiate with the Indians and to pay them a fair price. No Man’s Land and the Cherokee outlet should be addedto the territory of Oklahoma and then there would be a state (for it would be a state) with fair dimensions, Mr. Reagan stated some considerations which induced him to favor the amendment, MR. PLUMB ADVOCATED THE AMENDMENT and said that, while the feople living in No Man’s Land were as law-abiding and level- headed as the people of any other part of the country, still that did not relieve Congress from ite duty in the premises. The condition in which No Man’s Land was left was a scandal on the legislation of the country. He expressed his amazement that the com- mittee on territories had set iteelf so strenuous- ly and so totally without reason against his proposition of inclusion. Referring to the statements made in the discussion that the title of the Indians to these lands was the same as the title of any person to his homestead, Mr. Plumb declared that any man who said so was entirely mistaken. Then, said Mr. Teller, the Supreme Court is mistaken. Mr. Plumb went on to say that any title to land which limited its sale to one party (as the Indians were limited, being confined toa dis- posal of it to the United States) was not such a title as men usually had to their property. NO MAN’S LAND VOTED IN. Finally the discussion on the amendment was closed and a vote was taken on it, The vote re- sulted—-yeas 27, nays 16. So the amendment to include No Man's Land within the territory of Oklaboma was agreed to, THE HOUSE. As usual the democrats objected to the ap- proval of the journal, as usual a roll call was needed, as usual the democrats refrained from voting, and as usual the Speaker counted a quorum and declared the journal approved by @ vote of—yeas, 141; nays, 1 (Mr. Buckalew). BRAZIL CONGRATULATED, On motion of Mr. Hitt (IIL) the Senate joint resolution was passed unanimously congratu- lating the pore of the United States of Brazil on the adoption of a republican form of government, THE NEW CODE. The consideration of the code of rules was then proceeded with. Mr. Cannon (Ill), from the committee on rules, reported an amendment requiring the titles of committee reports to be entered on the journal and printed in the Record, Adopted, RELATING TO ROLL CALLS, Mr. Cannon also reported an amendment to rule 15—relating to roll calls—so as to provide that after the roll call the Speaker shall not en- tertain a request to record a vote or announce a pair unless a member’s name has been noted under clause 3 of this rule, Clause 3 is smended soas read as follows: On the de- mand of any member or at the suggestion of the Speaker the names of members sufficientto make a quorum in the hall of the House, who do not vote, shall be voted by the clerksand recorded in the journal and reported to the Speaker, with the names of the members vot- ing and be counted and announced in determin- ing, the presence of a quorum to do business, The amendment was adopted. Mr, Cannon also reported an amendment providing that executive communications and Senate may be referred by the Speaker to the appropriate committees without beng submitted to the House. After a brief democratic protest the amend- ment was ney EE Mr. Crisp (Ga.) offered an amendment to the clause of the rule providing that no dilatory motion shall be entertained by the ry adding the words, “but a demand tor yeas and nays shall not be considered . Mr. Adams (IIL) suggested that as the de- a — and nays was @ constitutional ight wore sug; were supererogatory, “er retorted that from recent rience he had learned that no safeguard could be put around the Constitution could be considered as a work « of supererpgation. Fox Retisr or Stanvine Inpians,—The Pres’= dent bas directed the use of $3,000 of the money appropriated for the Apache Indians to relieve the immediate needs of the Devil Lake Indians in North Dakota, action taken the of the $25,000 for tes were some time ago Tax Baxtmore Orrices.—Four different delegations of Baltimoreans called on the Presi- dent this morning to the claims of various candidates for the custome offices at that post, Will There Be a Naval Sensation When the Enterprise Gets Home? From private advices received at the Navy department it would appear that the arrival of the 0.8.8, Enterprise in New York from Europe—which is expected to occur soon after the Ist of March—will be the sig- mal for somewhat of a sensation in naval circles. This vessel is under the command of Commander B. H. McCalla, who has the reputation of being considerable of a disciplinarian as far as strictness goes. He has been some time abroad on. the European station and is now on his way home bearing the body of ex-Minister Pendleton, who died in Germany. Upward of seventy seamen, the letters re- ferred to state, have deserted from time to time, unable to bear what they consider the captain’s harshness, and there is a rumor of his having struck one man with his sword. i uring him severely, Ensign Kline and Chief eee Entwistle are now under hatches, under suspension for offense, awaiting the ar- rival of the ship home, when there will be at least two courts-martial. THE OFFENSES. Kline's offense, it is stated, was “‘sleeping on watch and denying it.” The offense for which Engineer Entwistle was suspended was talking back to the captain when the latter was admin- istering a reproof. The two officers were hav- ing a conversation, so the story goes, when the commander took ‘occasion to use language which led the engineer to remonstrate. For this he was shut up below and will also be tried, TROUBLE IN THE SQUADRON. There is also trouble in the squadron of evolu- tion. When leaving Gibraltar recently the flag lieutenant, it is stated, notified all of the com- manders‘of the vessels of the admiral’s inte: tion to sail upon the giving of a certain signal except the fagship cap- tain, By reason of this oversight when the signal was given the other three vessels steamed off, leaving the Chicago fast to her anchor with no steam up, The admiral, after some Vigorous vocal gymnastics on the oridge, satiated his wrath by ordering the executive officer and the chief engineer of the Chicago below under arrest. The matter was finally explained, byt it has left traces of unpleasant- ness on board the flagship. Is IT A PERPETUAL MONOPOLY? The Rights of Patent Medicine Proprie- tors Under Their Trade-Marks. Representatives of the Delaware pharma- ceutical society assembled in force this morn- ing in the room of the House committee on patents and under various forms and with considerable argument propounded to the committee a question of great importance to druggists and patent medicine men throughout the country. ‘The question briefly stated 1s: Does the trade- mark of the owner or manufacturer of a patent medicine give the right to control the manu facture and sale of that medicine after the patent has expired? It is said that many proprietary articles can be manufactured only after the formula upon which a trade-mark is based and that an affirma- tive answer to the question heretofore stated would give the owner of the trade- mark a perpetual monopoly of the article in question, notwithstanding that his patent to the same had expired by law. Patent medicine proprietors have threatened suit against drug- gists who manufacture compoun have trade-marks, and the latter desire to know their rights now in order that they may not hereafter be muleted in large damages. ‘There was some difference of opinion manifested by the members of the committee upon the question presented, and Chairman Butterworth promised to write an opinion for the benefit of the druggists, Hips Saas THE PROPOSED LIQUOR INQUIRY. Several Advocates and One Opponent of the Bill Address a House Committee. There was an interesting sessionof the House select committee on alcoholic liquor traffic this morning. Very properly there was a pretty full attendance of the committee, and the dozen or so of ladies and gentle- men there were all in earnest, Mrs, J. Ellen Foster, representing the woman's Christian temperance union, made an argu- ment in favor of legislation to provide for a commission on the subject of the alcoholic liquor traffic and to prohibit the transportation of intoxicating liquors from any state or territory of the United States or the District of Columbia into any other state or territory contrary to and in violation of the laws thereof. Addresses were also delivered on the same side of the question by J. N. Stearns, secretary of the national temperance society and A. M. Powell of the same society. The cppo- sition was centered in Louis Schade, editor of the Washington Sentinel, who declared that the advocates of prohibition were not actuated so much by highly moral as they were by litical motives. He warned members of the committee that the temperance folks were en- deavoring to build up a party on the ruins of the two great existing parties, An alcoholic liquor commission, he said, would not furnich fair information: if the government really wanted to secure facts the truth could be collected by the census force; Christian temperance unions were not reliable. He called attention to the fact that some such measures those now being —_ considered repeatedly passed the Senate, but had in- variably failed in the House, because the House represented the true sentiment of the people of the United States. The committee ad- journed till Saturday, when Mr. Schade will continue his remarks and Mr. Bittenbender, legal adviser of the W.C.T.U., will speak, as SUGAR PERPLEXES THEM.

They are finding some difficulty in fixing upon any place where the cut of duty can be made. From _ present indications it seems not likely that there will be any reduction of customs duty except on sugar, and that, on the contrary, in many cases there may be increases. Where irregularities and inconsistences exist, it is likely that cor- rection will be made by increasing duties on articles at present discriminated against. The only material reduction of revenue that there seems to be any agreement upon is on tobacco and whisky used in the arts, The sugar question is giving them consider- gble trouble. The pr jition to take off a considerable per cent of the duty and make up the difference to the producers by a bounty does not meet with the approval of the sugar men, and it is possible that the clause will be stricken out of the bill in the or that it may finally defeat the whole measure. derstood to be ten republicans in the House who will vote against any consider- pa eg ie a og a y will vi entire billif that clause is retained when the uestion comes to be finally voted on in the louse, This opposition in their own exes ma; of the Bs uae mt for the last four — the Atthe Carlisle India school an from neues. grat tee Soe in a general of Telegrams to The Star. _ NO WORLD'S FAIR BILL YET.

What a Kansas Bishop Thinks of the Adversity of Farmers, Curcaco, Feb. 18.—A dispatch from Kansas City says: Ina Lenten pastoral letter to be read in all churches of the diocese of Leaven- worth, Kan., Bishop Fink of the Roman Catho- lic church, referring to the farmers alliance movement, caused by the agricultural depres- sion, says: “We may say that, surrounded by a bountiful crop 48 we are, many of our people suffer and are in misery and uncertain what they should do in the future. The complaints come not only from the laboring classes in cities who are without work but especially from the countr: districts, from the farming population, which fecls that matters cannot be as they are for an indefinite number of years or they would lose their houses and homes. Owing to the pecu- liar state of our country every one suffers when the farming population is in distress, Thoughtful persons are well aware that the present grievances of the farmers are but too true. It seems that almost every industry in our country is protected in order to amass riches in the hands of the few, by which the many will have to suffer. The only classes not protected are those that would seem to need it —< laboring men and the farming popu- jation,” The bishop reviews the constitution of the farmers alliance and holds that no Catholic can eon the order because it isa secret one and ecause it virtually has a religion and « chap- lain of its own. This latter point he discusses at length and declares that if the alliance will drop its religious aspect Catholics can join it and work for the good of the farming classes. WHAT THEY SAY. The French Journals Express Their Opinions of the Duke’s Sentence. Panis, Feb. 13.—The republican journals ap- prove the sentence of two years’ imprisonment imposed on the duke of Orleans yesterday and say that the manifestation made by the Orlean- ists precludes a possibility of a pardon for the duke or @ reduction in his sentence. The Journal des Debate says it hopes the gov- ernment will not allow the provocation of the royalists to prevent its extending clemency to the young duke. The royalist papers refer to the noble feelings that inspired the duke to offer his services as a common soldier, and de- clare that in view of his patriotic motives the sentence imposed on him is monstrous, ‘The Solie! says the law of exile is unjust and the country will declare that it ought not to exist, Figaro announces that the law has been The applied moderately in the case of the duke, but Pg cen the — an will insist upon the prisoner bei: loned.
