Edmunds offered a resolution di
recting the civil service commissioners
to send to the Senate, as soon as may be,
a copyof tbe civil service rujes and
regulations, both general and special, as
they were in force the 4th of March,
1885 ; also copies of all changes and
modifications thereof, both general and
special, made since that date ; alop copies
of all special orders made by any au
thority in reference thereto, and action
thereunder since that date ; also' all in
formation in their possession toiohing
any' and all alleged or supposed viola-
tions of any such rules and regulations.
Adopted.
Mr. Allison reported from the con
ference oommittee(on the legislative, exe
cutive and judicial 'appropriation bill,,
that 7 the committee had been unable to
agree, the House still insisting on its dis
agreement to the three pending propositions.
Mr. Miller inquired whether under
that bill the treasury department would
have a sufficient fund to enable it : to
execute the oleomargarine law (should
it pass) through the internal revenue
bureau. Mr. Allison replied in 'the af
firmative, provided the House receded
from its disagreement to the item relating
to the internal revenue bureau. On mo
tion of Mr. Allison the Senate still
further insisted and asked for a further
conference. Messrs. Allison, Dawes and
Cockrell were reappointed confererees.
The Senate proceeded to tbe considera
tion of bills on the calendar. 1 1
Mr. Hale, from the conference I com
mittee on tbe naval appropriation bill,
submitted a report, which was agreed
to. He stated that this disposed of ih
naval appropriation, bill, which had ifot
occupied more than an hour of the Sen
ate's time. He also gave notice that

the proposed investigation of the charces
affecting the election of Mr. Payne, of
Ohio. I !
Mr. Teller proceeded to address the
Senate in support of the views submit
ted by hknaelf and Senators Evarts and
Logan; that an investigation should not
be instituted. Ho reviewed a portion
of the testimony taken by tbe commit
tee of the Ohio legislature and inferred
from its contradictory features that if
the Senate undertook the inauirv ; it
would only land tbe Senate in intermi
nable confusion. V
Mr. Sherman next spoke (Mr. 8ewell

said, to perform the most dfcagreeable
duty of his life. During all the time
he bad been in this body he had never
had occasion to bring before the Senate
the politics of Ohio as distinguished
from national politics. In performing
what he regarded as a publio duty to
the people of Ohio, and particularly to
the" Republican people of 0'-io, he
would do it in no spirit of unkindness
to his odlleague. He had known him
(or had known of him) since be
bad arrived at the azel of manhood.
He bad always; known him as
respected and honored citizen of Cleve
land, regarded well by his neighbors,
and he was glad to say that in this in
vestigation' and in performing this duty
he- should not have ocasion to arraign
his colleague in the slightest degree.
He believed that by common consent the
evidence showed that, whatever corrupt
lion naa occurred in tne process ot elec
tion, no knowledge of such corruption
was brought to his colleague. He be
lieved also, sincerely, that if the inves
tigation were gi anted his colleague's
honor would not be touched by tbe tes
timony that would be produced. He
wished to say also to the senators from
Illinois, New York and Cojorada
that he had no sympathy whatever
with the criticisms made uDon those
honored Senators. He did not think
that any of the newspaper extracts read
by Mr. LiOgan yesterday showed any
reflection on their motives. As-a mat

It was the history of politics that eyery

duty of the Senate, as it regards its own

Mr. Eustis, as a member of tbe Sen

a few words in support of that report
The subject was also discussed by
Messrs. Hoar, Frye, Saulsbury and
Teller. The chair (Mr. Sewell) an

Mr. Hatch, from the oommittee on
agriculture, reported back, as a matter
of privilege, the oleomargarine bill
with the Senate amendments.
Mr. Dunham raised the 'point of or
der that the report was not a privileged
one; the only committee which ba 1 the
right of way with the revenue bills was
the committee on ways and means; the
only privilege which attached to the
committee of agriculture was to report
the agricultural appropriation bill at
any time.
Mr. liatch contended that the House,
by its action in referring the bill to the
committee on agrioulture, had given
that oommittee thewsamc ; privileges in
regard to it as were conferred upon the
ways and means committee in regard
to any revenue bill.
Mr. Hisoock took the same ground,
and stated further that it had always
been the practice for tho House to ac
cede to the request of the Senate for a
conference.
Mr. Dunn argued that the privilege
attached, not to the measure, but to the
oommittee; the bill was not privileged
because tt was a revenue bill, but be
cause the ways and means committee
had a right to report it at suy time;
that the privilege did not attach to the
agricultural committee.
Mr. Creary could fiod no instance on
record where the request of one house
a conference was refused by tbe
other bouse. The speaker said the
privilege to report revenue bills at any
time applied to tne committee on ways
and means. The privilege to consider
revenue bills applied to all revenue
bills. The chair did not ; see how an
order which had referred a bill to the
committee on agriculture conferred, any
power upon that committer which it did
not before possess. He therefore held
that the report was not a privileged .one
and therefore declined to entertain it.
Mr. Herbert, of Alabama, rose to call
up the special order, the naval increase
1. Ml 1 -W TT? t
dui, wnen bit. nisoocx, rising to a par-
lamentary inquiry, asked whether if the
House refused to consider the special
order a call of committee's would
then be in order. The speaker replied
that it would. Messrs. Hisoock and
Hatch thereupon raised the question of
consideration, and Mr. Herbert; fearing
that the friends of the oleomargarine bill
would unite and vote against him, with
drew his bill for the present, and the
speaker proceeded to call - the commit
tees for reports, when the following
were submitted :
Mr. Hatch, from the committee on
agriculture, reported the oleomargarine
bill with the Senate amendments, with
the recommendation that, they be non
concurred in. Referred to committee
of tbe whole, where it takes its place at
the foot of the calendar, and where it
can only be reached by laying aside the
Morrison and Kandall tan 11 bills and
one or two internal revenue bills.
After the other reports had been made
Mr. Herbert again called up the special
order. Mr. Hatch again raised the
question of consideration,; desiring to
move to go into committee of the wholo
tor the consideration of the oleomargarine
bill. Tbe House refused to consider the
navy increase bill, and immediately Mr.
Keagan, of Texas, called : up as privi-
eged matter the inter-State commerce
bill and against this also Mr; Hatch
raised the question of consideration
The inter-State commerce bill met with
the same fate as the naval bill, the Ilou.'e
refusing, yeas 102, najs 151, to consider
it. The House went into committee of the
whole on revenue bills, tho object being
to reach the oleomargarine bill. The
first bill of this character on the calen
dar was the Morrison tariff bill, and
Mr. Morrison asked that it be laid
aside. Mr. Dunham objected, and the
objection having been reported to the
House, the speaker announced the ques
tion to be on laying the bill aside. This
was agreed to ; yeas'lGT, nays 63, and
the oommittee resumed its session, lhe
next revenue bill reached was that
giving notice of the termination of the
Hawaiian treaty. Mr. liatcd asxed tnat
it be laid aside, and after demanding
its reading Mr. Dunham objected to
it and the objection was icporied to th
House. The bill was laid aide; yeas
158, nays 60, and once more the com
mittee resumed its session, only to
strike another snag in a bill to reduce
the number of internal revenue officers
and to provide a better and more eco
nomical administration of tho , iuternal
revenue laws, which bill was also laid
aside; yeas 159, nays 70
This see-saw game was continued
until 4.30 o'clock, bills relating to the
revenue being lard aside by votes vary
ing from yeas lo, nays Ol, to yeas
146, nays 51. At that time tV bill
regulating the manufacture of uno.'ar
made from grain was reached. Tuuu
tbe friends of the oleomargarine bill re
ported p) different tactics and instead of
asking that the bill be laid aside, Mr.
Hatch took ithe floor to advocate the
measure. His object was to make the
bill the unfinished busings, so as to
prevent the j necessity of beginning at
the head of the lint tomorrow in pro
gress towards tbe oleomargarine bill.
He yielded o Mr. Hisoock, who in a
humorous manner began to talk Against
time and in favor of the bills, and bis
remarks were received with i good na
ture d applause and laughter
Mr. Henderson, of Iowa, in a;i
equally humorous m?nner, ; took the
other tack and vigorously d- hout oed
the bill, declaring it to be the most in
famous proposition ever brought before
an American Congress, and said be was
surprised to see an "old grqy-lmircd rf
cal" liko tb gentleman from New Y iTk
advocating such a villainous measure.
(Laughter. )i Ho withdrew his offensive
remarks and admitted that the gentle
man had some dark hairs in his bead.
This bill was only in keeping with tho
mixed-up performance which the House
bad seen on, the part of the committee
ou ways and means. TUs was such an
infamouH proposition that he saw no
good in it, and he felt like raking tbe
committee fore and aft for bringing in
such a bill. , (Laughter ) Tho last re
mark annoyed Mr. Breckinridge, of
Kentucky, who was the author of the
bill, and hei inquired if it was parha-
mci?tae U Renounce a measure as in
famous. -
Mr. Henderson: "I withdraw the re
mark "
Mr. lireckenridge: "I take it that
when he says the proposition is infa
mous he speaks that which he knows to
bo false." ;
Mr. Henderson: "Task permission to
take back the offensive remarks."
Mr. Hopkins, of Illinois, suggested
that the remarks had been made in a
Pickwickian sense'."
Mr. Breckenridge : "They were too
strong to be tolerated."
Mr. Henderson: "Tbe correction
from my venerable friend touches my
heart and 1 beg to be permitted to with
draw the offensive remarks. I forgot
that voj friend was a member of the
committee when I said it. I was think
ing only of the chairman (Laughter, in
wnich Mr. Morrison heartily i joined )
The committee rose, leaving the bill
as the unnnisbed business and the
House at 5 o'clock adjourned.

Wiles filed a bill in thtf U. S. circuit

tho Labor Herald from publishing

injunction to restrain it from
publishing that Baughman Bros wore

his name; was taken off the black list by
order of ithe court and that he could not
get effectual relief unless the boycott of
Baughman Bros was broken up To

occupies tho foremost place as the great
pacificator between the North and tbe
bouth, holding tbe even scules of equal

ceitful ashes of the past, to bring to

the live coals of that fire w hich once
burned all too fiercely, but ever by
kiud, fair and imprtial utterances, giv
ing both sides an equal show, you have
poured oil upon the troubled waters
and deserve that benejdictioa-which rests
upon the peacemaker."
