Senator from Virginia, which, were read
and laid on the table, also a oommuoiea-
tion from !Uen. W. B. Franklin, presi- j calling on the secretary of the interior

of the death of Gen. Gexrge B. McCli'1-jcifio railroad, from the appointment of

ritorial legislative assembly of Wyoming.
For this he asked immediate considera
tion. I
Mr. Edmunds said he - would not ob
ject if its consideration would not con-
sume mucn time, but that be was anxi
ous to get up the Utah - bill as soon as
possible, j
Ihe bill as reported by Mr. Harrison
was then, without objection, read a third
time and passed.
Among the bills introduced and ap
propriately referred were the following :
dj JUr. JBlair, to give the right ot trial
by jury : to claimants tor pensions
whose applications have been rejected
by the secretary of the interior on ap
peal from the decision of the commis
sioner ot i pensions. Also,: to provide
for tbe erection of monuments to Abra
ham Lincoln and Ulysses S. Grant. ,
By Mr. ! Logan, to provide for the ad
justment of accounts of laborers, work
men and mechanics arising under the
eight hour law; also to confer military
rank on telegraph operators iu the mili
tary service; also to create a commission
to inquire into the, material, industrial
and intellectual progress made by the
colored people since 1365; also for:' the
rtelief of telegraph operators during the
war. -I 1
By Mr. ! Vance, to repeal chapter 27
of the act pf 1883, relating to civil ser
vice. j ; ; i . ' " "
By Mr. 1 Morgan, to substitute silver
dollars in place of; gold ' com and cur
rency in the several reserved funds
held in the treasury. ;

and duties! of the department of agricul
ture. i ' ' r i ' 1

power di4 demands of Spain for carry
ing into enect the treaty of loly, for
the -cession of Florida, such foreign
power to be selected with the consent of
the government of Spain. ' '- '
A resolution offered by Mr. Hoar was
at his request referred: to the committee
on ioreign relations, : requesting the
President to take measures ' for revising
and extending our extradition treaties
so as to cover cases of embezzlement and
Other breaches of trust. In offering his
resolution; Mr. Hoar made speciaT refer
ence to the number of defaulting bank
officers who tried to escape punishment
by flight to Canada.
Mr. Dherman, taking the floor, Offered
concurrent resolution accepting the
marble statue of ex-President Garfield
presentedl to Congress by the State of
unio ana now in position in etatuarv
hall at the capitol. Gov. Hoadly's let
ter of presentation was at Mr. Sherman's
request rad: by tbe clerk. Mr.. Sher
man then; delivered a brief but earnest
and warm eulogy of ex-President Gar
field and moved the adoption of the res
olution onered by him. Ihe concurrent
resolution was then agreed to.
Mr. Gray gave notice -that he would
tomorrow call up Mr. Beck's silver! res
olution, for the purpose of, making some
remarks On it. . Mr, Beck inquired as
to the present parliamentary condition
of the resolution referred to. The chair
(Mr. Sherman) replied that it was on tho
tatble, and that the pending motion was
to refer it to the committee on finance.
; Mr. Beck, ; referring to a criticism
made by Mr. Morrill on his (Beck's)
recent silver speech. , inquired of Mr.
Morrill whether on a careful reading of
that speech be bad not been mistaken in
his understanding of Mr. Beck's re
marks.; Mr. Morrill:; replied that he
took : pleasure in saying that he had
somewhat misunderstood Mr. Beck's
reference to the President and the sec
retary of the treasury.' j
Mr.'' Beck disclaimed having made any
personal, at tack on the President or the!
secretary or tue treasury. His remark
regarding the secretary's locking up the'
surplus would, he said, have been quite
as well j illustrated and perhaps' more
aptly so had he said that if a cyclone!
had blown down the treasury building,
and scattered the surplus and the people
hap picked up tbe . money on die street
and put jit into circulation, that the cir
culation! would be more beneficial to the
people than keeping the money locked
up in the treasury.
The chair laid before the Senate a
resolution heretofore offered by Mr.
: 11.1 1 !OVU Vt4AVW.U Ml UllUU uw f H
i alleged practice of the late pension om

for some time by Messrs. Ioar and Ed
munds, but finally at th request of
Senator Vest, went over for one day.
A message was received from the
President transmitting the draft of a bill
to provide for the allotment of lands in
severalty to the Indians. It was read
and referred.
i Mr. Wilson, of Iowa, called up the
resolution heretofore offeVed by him,
support of his resolution Mr. Wilson re
viewed at considerable length die ictioi
action
of tbe government dircot of rhotu
he had himself been one, witu a view
of showing that had the government
paid attention to the information con
veyed and the recommendation made by
the directors, the relations of the gov
ernment to the roads would today be
better. At tho conclusion of Mr. Wil
son's remarks the judicial salary bill
was placed before the Senate. Without
further action, however, the Senate at
3.35 p. m. went into executive scpsioh.
At 4 50 the doors were reopened and the
Senate adjourned.
