ChaflVe, of Colorado, submitted th tollowii.g as a suhsinute for the reo iution, ieavit g the preamble of Mr Mat thews .the same as submitted by that senator : IZe&olv a, that all the bonds ( f the United .States issued, or authorized to toe issued, under the said acts of Con gress theretofore raited, are navahl. principal and interest, at the option of &ne government, m com, of gold or silver, of the elijdrfi vi.lue, when such bonds -were ju'd, and to rt store loita coinatre kik Ii i,ver c. in as a lgal render, co-equal wkhgi-Id coin, is not in violation of ti e putIic faith nor in derogation of the rights of th- pub lic creditors Ordered to be printed. The Senate then, by a vote of 44 to zv, went into executive session. The ptruggle dver the New York an- pomtmen's resulted in a victory for Mr Conk ling. All the deti!s obiain aile follow : The Senate was in execu tive session to-day nearly six hours, adjourning at 8 o'clock. The entire session was devoted to the New York custom house nominations, two of which, viz : Those of Theodore Roose velt, to be collector in the plice of an other to be removed, and LBradtord Prinee as naval officer, vice Cornel in ' be removed, were reported from the J committee on Commerce unfavorably. me mira, mat 01 iii a Merrut, to be .surveyor of customs, in the place of Sharp, whose commis-ion has expired, was reported with a favorable recom mendation. No opposition was mani fested to the latter, but the contest in .regard to the two proposed removals was extremely animaied, and took a very wide range, covering a discussion of the right, powers and duties of the President in regard to removals frurn office, and the subject of civil service policy in general. Mr Conkii' g, chairman of the com mittee on Commerce, opened the de bate with a brief statement of the ra on8 why, in the opinion oft he major ity of the committee, the two first named nominees should not be con finned. .These were, in brief, that no chargei;:either of corruption or ineffi ciency, hd been made again tit either 01 tne present incumbents, but that, on the contrary, they were considered to be' faithful, honest, experienced and able 'officers' Mr Bayard followed in com- Secretarv of thp Tro.. tiry or the Prefid t 7, , jj.c aiou dhed any one to show or to assert that hlH I Hfinl; 1 i tir'oN : , ) ntnuu in mis wnole matter bad been otherwise thn ra; open, courteous and above board.
