In the Senate today Mr. Hoar re ported t from the library committee a bill establishing a commission, composed of the secretary of state, the librarian of Congress and the secretary of the Smithsonian institution, to examine and report to Congress as to the character and value of manuscripts belonging to Congress. Mr. Hoar f explained that the work involved too great an expense to the government. He said Congress bad the Franklin papers, the Rocham beau papers and other ; manuscripts of great historical value; id the object of the proposed commission was that it might examine them and report as to whether they should be published and the best method of doing so. ; The chair laid before the Senate a letter from the postmaster general, trans mitting, in compliance 1 with a recent Senateresolution, a tabular statement of fourth-class postmasters removed since March 4, 1885. It was (referred. The total number of such removals is 8,635. At t.ViA rAntiAst ctt Mr" RdmnnHa thn army Dill was by unanimous consent .... . . 1 made the unnnisned busmess of the morning hour tomorrow, and Mr. Ed munds' resolutions were placed before the Senate." . ' Mr. Voorhees took , the floor in op position to the majority . report. After stating the question at issue, Mr. Voor hees asked why the majority resolutions contented themselves with an attack on the agent (the attorney general) and shrank from a direct blow at the prin cipal (the President?) Did the Senator from Vermont expect a cabinet omcer to disobey the President. (The resolutions were meant for popular effect. They contemplated no measure of legislation to remove .any evil or pretended evil.; they were merely the fUlmination of a Senatorial opinion barren of result other than cheap partisan denunciation. There was a threat that , if the papers sought were withheld the nomination would not be confirmed. A more illu sory and ridiculous sequence could not be conceived, if fine attorney general were guilty, as, charged, of "conduct subversive of the fundamental princi ples of the government and the good administration thereof," then he should be impeached in the manner provided by the constitution. That was a mat ter for thf House of Rep- resentaUves to propose. The resolui tions now before the Senate constituted trivial and inconsequential measure conipare to ttte Bturdyi. and straight! forward remedy provided by the consti-i tution for the punishment . of a public official willfully recreant or disobedient of the law. These resolutions were simply intended to keep , the Republi cans in office. There was nothing more certain, however, than that the people understood the object. As to removals by President Cleveland, Mr. . Voorhees said there were from lOO.OuOto 120,000 office-holders in the United States. For twenty-five years this tremendous pat- ronage bad been in tne nanus 01 one 01 the strongest, most ; s salons, vehement and prescriptive political parties ever known in the history of the world. If during j that time . a .Democrat had held office it was either by mistake or by arrangements not creditable to the persons concerned; Mr. Voorhees heartily endorsed Mr; Cleveland's action in making removals so far as action had been had and he ould heartily endorse the President's action in the same direction if it went a thousand leagues further. Out of 3,600 persons employed in the interior depart ment, Mr. Voorhees said only 4W changes had been made under the pres ent administration, including tne 'able and faithful secretary of the interior himself, and the principal positions next to him. There was still in that depart ment a solid Republican corps of 3,200 persons, sympathizing with the efforts of their own party - and desiring and laboring for the syerthrow of the Dem ocratio ; party. Substantially the same state of facts existed in the other de partments, with the exception of the fourth-class postmasters. There were at the present moment ten Republicans in office to one Democrat. Mr. Voor hees had no hesitation in declaring that such a state of things was not consistent with the true theory of popular govern ment, or with its safe and honest admin- istration. Ihe civil service law bad never commended itself to the judg ment of Voorhees. : Very recently he had voted in committee, and should vote in the senate, ior its absolute re peal. It had proved itself to be a vio lent and odious obstruction to the Will of the people and a stumbling-blook In the way of a rational and successful ad' ministration. History had shown that no political party could administer the affairs of government through the in strumentality of its enemies. What employer of labor, what commander an army, would administer his anairs by the bands of his enemies, by the hands of those Who would wish him defeat, who were censorious in . mind, untaitbtul in heart, and often only awaiting an oppor tunity to betray him. At this very hour there was not a conndential com munication or transaction of any one ; of the departments that was not betrayed to the leaders of - the republican party. The very papers demanded by the Sen ate were familiar to ' eager Republican eyes. ' Every paper and every drawer and every closet in the departments was daily and hourly under he espionage of Republican chief clerks, Jlepubliean private secretaries and Republican con- fidential short-hand writers. Those who I opened the letters of the heads of de partments were known as malignant op ponents of the .Democratic party, in flamed with a desire for the overthrow of the administration. Mr. Evaris followed Mr. Voorhees.. He supported the majority report. The resolutions reported, he i said, declared that the demand made by the judiciary committee on the attorney general for papers should, under the circumstances, have been complied with, and that neither his duty nor the instructions of the President justified him in his refusal to comply the demand. Mr. Evarts read from the report ol the minority of the judiciary committee to show that the minority conceded that official pa pers on file in the departments relating to a subject within the I jurisdiction of the House of Representatives and the Senate were subject to the call of either house of Congress. On this admission he said it seemed to .him there should be but littlw dubt as to the vote on the resolutions before the Senate. He said the arguments made by Democratic Sen ators would accord to the President the right to say whether the papers called for related to a subject with which Con gress had a right to deal. He could under this contention refuse papers af fecting his own conduct which it might be important for Congress to secure. This doctrine he argued was inadmissible. Mr. uali followed m opposition to the majority report. Mr. ttvarts' speech, 1.. : j 1.- 3 i j it ?' t . . 118 BiU naapiacea mis suDject upon a new ana ainerent ground, mat was that we should measure the constitu tional duties of the Senate by the propo sitions whioh the President might make in regard to a subject,' Burnett was not to be confirmed because Duskin's removal had been placed upon improper grounds. Mr. Call thought that Mr. Evarts was not consistent in his state ments as to the constitutionality of the tenure-of-office act, and - read from the proceedings of the impeachment trial lin support 01 nis view. AS to tne papers that had been demanded, Mr. Call said they were Open and accessible to every member of the Senate. Admit ting that the departments were filled with documents bearing on the case; admitting even that these documents I were filled ! with libelous charges, what function could they serve in the performance of the constitutional duties imposed upon Senators 1 They neither made the proposed incumbent more worthy or less worthy. The fact that a man's predecessor is slandered does not affect the man appointed, i The President naa a right to dispose 01 com munications addressed to him as he saw fit. If the ; principle on which i these resolutions; proceeded was correct the President pngbt as well abdicate his powers to j the Senate. ! It had been maintained here that the President could not interpret the constitution for him- self, yet hers was a proposition that t Senate should interpret it for him. T) the The whole discussion was beneath the dig nity of the Senate. Its purpose was to maintain, in omce the present Republi can offioe-holdert. ; . Mr. Ingalls obtained the floor but gave way for amotion to go into execu tive session. .Before the doors were closed Mr. Edmunds intimated that'as far as was in his power he should insist upon a vote on these resolutions before adjournment tomorrow. ; After ah exec utive session the Senate adjourned. The debate will be renewed immedi ately after the introduction of bills and the submission of reports from the com mittees tomorrow, shortly after 12 o'clock. j ' ' Housa. ' Mr. Dunn, of Arkansas, from the shipping committee, reported the free ship bill and it was placed on the cal endar. Mr. Pingley, of Maine, pre sented the minority report. In the morning hour Mr. Barksdaie, of Mississippi, called up and after some discussion the House passed, 1 a bill granting fifteen days' leave of absence to employees of tne government printing office. The House went into committee of the whole on the postoffice appropri ation bill. Mr. Dockery, of Missouri, reviewed the legislative history of the foreign mail service of the postoffice de partment from 1845 to the present time and defended the postmaster general from Mr. ' Burroughs' attack of yester day. He quoted what he denominated the "subsidy" clause of the last post office appropriation bill. It gave to the postmaster general authority to advertise for letting contracts to Ameri can steamships, but there was nothing mandatory in the act. : It vested in him discretion, ana in tne exercise 01 s just and wise' discretion . the postmaster I general had been subjected to unmerited, unjust and harsh criticism. In support of his position was tne law was not mandatory, Mr. Dockery quoted from speeches delivered during the course of the debate last year by Messrs. xungiey, of Maine,, and Horr, of Michigan, to the effect that under it the postmaster- general would not be obliged to pay a single dollar to an American line 01 steamships, it naa been claimed tnat this measure was the culminating act 01 well-conceived plan which took its first stop in the repeal American of a law ships to of whioh required take mails On boird before they could get their clearance papers. He wanted to call the attenuon 01 tne nouse to tne fact that the Senate bad coerced the House of Representatives into, the adoption of the subsidy clause by hold ing out a threat of an extra session. He wanted, and the Democratic party wanted to give adequate and liberal compensation to American steamships for carrying the mails. If the present law did not make sufficient provision he would favor any law that did. But speaking from a business stand-point he would never favor ' any measure which proposed to subsidize an American line of steamships for the purpose of aiding commerce. The debate was at times strongly politi cal. Among the speakers were Messrs. Brumut, of Pennsylvania; Peters, of Kansas;- Rifrgs, of Illinois, and Ouen ther, of Wisconsin. The committee rose at 5 o'clock and took a recess to 7.30. THE GREAT ftTRIKES. ttov. HrmdBk, of JJIbsoui-1, Iwara m Proelainatte. St. Ii)Oi8, Mo., March 25, Gov.

A member of the executive committee of district as sembly No. 101, Knights of Labor, was seen by a reporter early ,this morning, and in reply to a question whether or not the men employed in the failroad yards in 'east St. Louis would be ordered to strike as a result of later changes in the situation,' said : "The east St. Louis yard men will go out this, afternoon at 3 o'clock. You know they have been anxious to go out themselves for some time, but we have been holding back. Yesterday they sent a committee to the executive of assembly No. 3,650, and they sent them to us. I hey said they wanted to go out immediately, and we decided to fix the time at 3 o'clock this afternoon.

He rested fairly well last night, waking only at rather long intervals. "He seems to breathe with more ease this morning," said his son, "and all things considered we feel encouraged, but he is a very sick man," he continued, "and we can only hope until the next two or three days bring a crisis." "Father does not vet know of my arrival, or indeed that the family sent for me, and we think it best that he should not know until the crisis is past. As soon as he is able to travel," he added.

There are some who call themselves Democrats and papers which they publish and call Democratic newspapers, which are already calling upon the President to veto the Blair pill in case it should pass the House as well as the Senate. They do this upon the ground, as they allege, that the bill is unconstitutional. That is, it is unconstitutional in their opin- ! and that of some others, while a large majority of not only the voters, but the thinkers as well, declare for its entire constitutionality. To call upon Mr, Cleveland to veto; a bill as uncon stitutional when the constitutionality of the measure has never been acted upon is .treason to the party, a violation of ihe best interests of the people and contrary to common sense and common honesty. If the bill shall be declared unconstitutional by the supreme court, the only body in the land ("outside of the unorganized corps: of constitutional editors') which has a right to pronounce upon the matter, then there will be no necessity for a veto. If the court shall decide, on the contrary, that the meas- ure is in accordance wnn tne provisions of ihe organic law of the land, the great charter of our liberties, and the ruler and guide as well, then a veto would be and act of unfaith towards the people, an overriding and trampling down of their rights and privileges and preroga tives, and an act of tyranny and usurpa tion that we do not for one moment be lieve that Grover Cleveland will be guilty of.
