He ex plained the object of the bill. A citizen of the United States,! he said, long resident abroad, proposed to give the Smithsonian Institution a very large collection of armor from the middle ages, some of it connected with the most eminent historical names, in cluding horse armor, helmets, swords and all of the paraphernalia of ancient warfare. These objects, numbering some five thou sand, had been collected at vast expense, and is said to be the most valuable collection of the kind in the! world. The condition of the presentation was that the Smithso nian Institution would furnish a fire-proof building for its protection. I After the introduction and reference of a number of bills, the Senate proceeded to the calendar and passed 8 number of bills of local interest. When the bill for Jhe erection of postofflce buildings in towns and cities where the postofflce receipts for the three years preceding have exceeded $3,000 annually, was reached on the calen dar, a discussion upon it arose and several amendments were made, but it was laid aside without final action. i The Senate at 3 p. m.ronmotion of Mr. Edmunds, adjourned. j I HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES.

He charged Mr. Scott 'with having improperly procured these altera tions, and having thereby placed Mr. Brumm and himself (Dalzall), in an atti tude which they had not occupied. I Under the call of States a large number of bills were introduced. 1 I j GlMr. Hatch, from the Commute on Agri culture, moved that the rules be suspended and the bill passed to enlarge the power and duties of the Department of Agriculture, and to create an executive department, to be known as the Department of Agricul ture.

Washingtoh. May 23, -A message from the President returning without his ap- proval the Senate bill for ths relief of L. J. Warden was laid before- the Senatel I The bill directs an allowance of $626 to Wat- den, recently I postmaster at Lawrence, Kansas, for extra clerk hire from July 1st, 1882, to 30th of June. 1883. The grounds of the veto are that the allowances of post masters for clerk hire are fixed 'by the Post Office Department; that in this case $3,100 was allowed; that applications for additional allowance were twice declined, that the expenses were therefore incurred at the postmaster's own risk, and that the passage of special acts in such cases would have a dangerous tendency to induce post masters to substitute their own judgment for that of the Department, and to relax wholesome diecipline. i The President adds that the time allowed by the Constitution for approval of bills expired in. this case on the 19th inst. ; that the Senate adjourn ed from May 17th till May 21st; that the message was drawn and engrossed on the 18tbr that on the 19th the message and bill jyern tejd(Jf d,tCLecoj8ideration ' of the they were then tendered to tbe President of the Senate, who also declined to ! receive them, on the ground i that they could only be presented to the Senate in actual ses sion, and that they were therefore trans mitted assoon as the Senate convened (yesterday), with this explanation. I Mr. Hoar remarked in at the communi cation raised a very important constitux tional question, to which the Senate should give its careful consideration, tie, mere fore, moved its reference to the committee on Privileges "and Elections. Agreed to. A committee of Conference was order ed on the pension appropriation bill, and Messrs. Allison, Daw.es and uorman were appointed. i 1 I . After some routine proceedings or minor interest the Senate at 1.40 p. m. proceeded to consideration of executive business. The doors : were reopened at two p, m., when the Senate proceeded to the consideration of unfinished business, being the House bill to establish the Department of Labor, and Mr. Reagan addressed the Senate in oppo sition.! The bill, he said, was a mere tub thrown to the laboring whale. The labor ing classes had many grounds of com plaint: but he had never heard that they demanded mere change in the manner of collecting information about labor as being sufficient to satisfy their complaint. Their complaint was that the government had for many years past (ever since me fiepao lican party got control of it) run it in the interest of special favored classes to the in jury and oppression of those engaged in agriculture, mecnanic arts, laoor ana pro fessional occupations.! ! Mr. Reaean moved as a substitute a bill creating the Department of Industry. On a vote by yeas and nays on the substitute there were 9 yeas and 37 nays, (less man a quorum), and then Mr. Reagan withdrew the substitute. After a few amendments of phraseology, tbe bill passed; and a Confer ence Committee was ordered, and Senators1 Blair, Wilson of Iowa, and George j were appointed conferees.

Adjourned. HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES Mr. CrisD. of Georgia, presented a con ference report on the bill to bridge the Cape rear, Mack and xtonneasi rivers,, in North Carolina, and it was agreed to. The floor was then accorded to the Com mittee on Labor, and Mr. O'Neill, of Mis souri, chairman of that committee,' called up the bill to confine the sale of products of convict labor to the State in which they are produced. Mr. O'Neill endeavored to have an arrangement effected whereby debate on the bill should be limited to two hours; but opposition was made on the ground .' that the principle involved in the bill was .too important to "be established ' with" out full discussion ! and consideration. Majority and minority reports were read at length and an hour was thus consumed. Mr. O'Neill explained that the measure originated in the visit to this city of manu facturers from New York, Brooklyn, Jer sey City, Philadelphia and other cities who appeared before thecommittee iand - pic tured the absolute ruin that stared them in the face from the competition of convict labor. Labor organizations of the country, through their representatives, had nrged sank into insignificance when it was realized that there was a cancer at home eating the net out of every trade and industry. t u lumh, of Illinois, member of the Labor Committee, opposed the bill on the ground that it was unconstitutional and interfered with interstate commerce. Mr. Rogers, of Arkansas, held similar views. q j . Mr. Raylor, of Maryland, contended that the bill was constitutional, under the provision giving Congress the right to regulate commerce between the States. Mr. Butterworth opposed the bill, both a heing beyond the constitutional powers of Congress and as unadvisable. He de clared that there was no evidence that any industry had been stricken down by reason of the competition with convict labor. There was not a well-ordered business es tablishment that could not compete with prison labor. ! t Mr. Wilson,1 of j Minnesota, and Mr. Adams, of Illinois, opposed the bill on con stitutional grounds. Mr. Outhwaite, of Ohio, opposed it because it interfered with the rights of States, and Mr. Cannon, of Illinois, was unwilling that it should pass unless the importation of foreign goods, wholly or in part ! manufactured by con victs, was also prohibited. . Mr. Lodge, of Massachusetts, supported the bill as being both constitutiocal and wise. ; . ; Mr. Cannon offered an amendment pro hibiting the importation for commercial purposes of all goods, wares or merchan dise from any foreign country to the United States, which in whole or in part were manufactured or produced" by convict labor, and prescribingpenalties for viola tion of this prohibition.

The House went into Committee of the Whole (Mr. Turner, of Georgia, in the chair) on the Post Office Appropriation bill. i I Mr. Blount, of Georgia, explained that uie uiu carritu. an appropriation or $ ou, 035,840. against an appropriation of $55,694,650 for the current fiscal year. He deemed it necessary to give the causes for this increase of appropriation. The compensation of postmasters for 1888 was $11,700,000. The Sixth Auditor stated that the expenditures for this item, in 1887. amounted to $11,929,481. or $229,481 more than the appropriation for 1888. At the same time it appeared that while in 1886 the gross revenues increased at the rate of 3.26 per cent., in 1887 the increase was 14 6 percent., and the same large in crease of receipts was expected to take place in 1888. In the appropriation bill for 1888 there was no appropriation for rent, light and fuel at the third class offices In the proposed bill there was inserted for this purpose the sum of $650,607. Heretofore a postmaster of a third class office was com pelled to pay for these items from his sala ry. In the appropriation for clerks in post offices there was the substantial increase of $550,000, which was made at the request of the Postmaster General, and which was re quired to meet the increasing needs of busi ness. ! In reply to a question from Mr. Lanham, of Texas, Mr. Blount stated that while the Committee on Post Offices and Post Roads were in favor of increasing the compensa tion of the fourth class postmasters, it was estopped by tbe rules of the House from in corporating a provision to that effect in the appropriation bill, but he thought that the Committee would bring in before long a measure to increase the compensation of postmasters of that class. An increase of $777,500 in the appro priation for the free delivery service, Mr. Blount explained to be due not so much to the proposed increase of service, as to the provisions of the act of January 3rd, 1887, providing for the classification, promotion andjsalaries of letter carriers. Mr. Cox iOf New York, inquired whether there was any prospect of the Com mittee on Post Offices and Post Roads re porting a measure to classify railroad mail clerks and postal clerks, so as to give them proper compensation. Mr. Blount replied that that matter was being considered by a sub-committee, and he did not feel authorized to make any statement ' as to the prospect of its being acted upon. There were organizations among postal clerks, I among postofflce, clerks, and among railroad clerks, for the purpose of securing an increase of salaries. Tbev did not come before the committee, but were in the habit of formulating their bills and placing them in the hands of some nrcsriaent "iuismtsrs, and in this wey they expected to drive Congress to a conclusion contrary to the proper methods of legisla tion. So far as he was concerned he rep resented not office-holders, alone, but the great mass of the people, who paid taxes, and he would withstand any unreasonable increase of salaries. General debate upon the bill followed, participated in by a dozen members, but it possessed slight interest beyond the fact that there was a general expression that the same additional compensation ought to be provided for fourth class postmasters. The bill was then read by sections for amendment. Mr. McRae, of Arkansas, offered an amendment providing that fourth class postmasters shall receive compensation of $20 a year in addition to the compensation allowed under the existing law. Ruled out on tbe point of order. ' , Several other amendments were offered and all were rejected. Without disposing of the bill the committee rose and the House adjourned. A DESPERATE NEGRO.

This morning deputy sheriff Shipe was shot and killed by HicksMartin, a negro, whom he was attempting to arrest on the Powells ville Railroad works, twenty miles north of Knoxville. The negro was wanted in Ala bama for murder. Deputy sheriff Shipe found that Martin was working on the new railroad, and went to tbe new camp this morning to arrest him. He went to the camp where -Martin was, in company with other negroes, and called for him, The negro met the deputy sheriff at the door with two pistols and immediately began fir ing on him. Shipe fell riddled with bullets before he had time to draw his own weapon. He died in a few minutes without speaking a word.

The Senate has decided by a vote of 28 to 27, not to con sider tbe Fisheries treaty in open session. The division was upon strict party lines except in the case of Senator Hall, who voted with the Democrats, adversely to tne Riddleberger resolution. Upon the an nouncement of the result the body went at once into legislative session. No time has yet been fixed for taking up the treaty. The Democratic memoers or tne tiouse Committee on Rivers and Harbors are dis- mated bv the changes made in the bill by the Senate Committee, and express an in tention to vigorously oppose most of those of importance. j It is asserted that the New England appropriations have been in many cases increased even beyond the estimates made by the engineer officers and those sdbmitted by the department, while South ern items have been ruthlessly cut. It is now definitely settled that the oner to sell tbe government $580,000 of bonds, made in the name of a well known Phila delphia firm, was a straw bid, solely in tended to affect the stock markets. Tbe firm whose name was used, informed the department to-day that they did not make the oner and tnat tney oia not Know wno did. They promised to aid the authorities in any way that might lead to the discov ery of the person who had used their name without authority. Tho matter is being thoroughly investigated and it is deemed best by Acting Secretary Thompson to withhold the details of the affair from the Dublic for the present. The speaker laid before the House to day a letter from the Secretary of the Navy, transmitting an estimate for the appropria tion of $47,000 for the erection of a new saw mill at the Navy Yard at Norfolk, Ya.. for the use of the department of con struction and repairs.
