-.t ii- residitit: in Florida, having
a ! pii-.l f..r a subordinate position in the
l ei.-ii n iiureau. found i n looking over
th- civil s.-rvice directions for that bu
r. an that he would be unable to comply
w ith them. It seemed to Mr. Call that
a man who had the ability and intelli-g'-nc
to become a distinguished officer
in the Cnion army had ability and in
telligence enough to till a subordinate
pla.'e in the Pension Bureau.
At 2 o'clock the Electoral Count hill
came up and Mr. Hoar moved an amend
ment of which he had previously given
notice.
Mr. Hoar supported his amendment in
a 1 .ng speech, broken frequently by de
bates with Senators who interrupted
w ith .iiiestions and points sgainst Mr.
Hoar's argument. Mr. Sherman was
prominent in these discussions, and con--lierable
amusement was afforded by
the warmth and eagerness with which
the?o two met and answered each other,
sometimes before their points had been
fully stated. Messrs. Maxey. Ingalls.
Loan and George took part in the dis
cussion. Mr. Heart- obtained the floor. but gave
way for a motion for an executive ses
sion, which was carried. Before the
doors were closed Mr. Allison offered a
resolution, which was agreed to. direct
ing the Secretary of the Senate to pay
the funeral expenses of the late Vice
President. At 5:45 the doors were reopened and
the Senate adjourned.
HoC-i-:. In his opening prayer the
Chaplain said: "We commend to Thy

I because twice within a fortnight death

earthlv. State and human sympathy

Mr. Hauback. of Kansas, rhing to a
question of personal privilege, sent to
the clerk's desk to have read an edi
torial from yesterday's New York
U'.,r'7 entitled "The Telephone Scan
dal." but the reading was immediately
interrupted by Mr. Breckenridge. cf
Arkansas, with a point of order that
mere was nothing in the editorial which
reflected upon the gentleman from
Kansas in his representative capacity.
The Speaker ruled that unless the ar
ticle reflected in some way on the gen
tleman from Kansas in his representa
tive capacity, there could be no ques
ti ai of privilege involved.
Mr. Hanback couldViot say thearticle
was personal to buojelf. and in order to
get around the difficulty offer the fol
lowing resolution: !'
"Rt solved. That the committee on
expenditures in the Department of Jus
tice be empowered to make full inquiry
into any expenditure on the part of the
i lovernmei.t relative to the rights of
;h- P.. -11 and Pan Electric Telephone
C. impac ies and for the purpose of this
investigation and to the end that people
mav be fully advised, the committee is
granted the right to send for persons
an 1 papers: all expenses to be audited
ar. 1 accounted from approved vouchers,
and w hen so approved to be paid out of
any money in the Treasury not other
wise appropriated."
The Speaker could not see that the
resolution involved a question of privi
lege It w as merely a resolution of in
quiry. Another -h. rt debate ensued over this
ruling, in tiie com :-e of which Mr. Rn-
I.V.I, of Pennsylvania, snid that while
re di 1 n..t believe that the House had
anything to d.. with the subject matter
as presented, he was opposed to throw
ing any obstruction in the way of the
falle-t investigation on any matter
whi. li i,ertain-d to t::e good government
I th- I "nite.l Stat,-4.
After a little more u rang! ing on the
-i.' j '.'i. Mr. Morrison, of Pis., cut the
g. rdian knot by a-king unanimous con--iit
that the resolution be immediately
considered. Mr. Beach, uf New York,
showed a disposition to object, hut was
prevailed upon by Mr. Robertson, of
K y. . to give his consent: and the reso
b.ii n w as adopted without dissent.
Mr. Hanback was still dissatisfied .and
endeavored under a cover of a question
: personal privilege, to read the news
p .per article as at first, but he was ruled
i.t of order upon objection from several
members, and as he declined to appeal

' ' '' ii.UJi-c are presented to the SrC
ate for con Urination or rejection i and it
is the d uty sf the Executive to comply
with all demands for the same.
In oifermg the resolution Mr. Riddh
berger said his purpose was simply to
brii) the subject up in open debate. It
did nut involve any so-called high prero
gative of the Senate when it should go
into secret or executive session, butoclv
that the abstract question as to whether
the Executive could becalled on or re
quired to'give reasons for removals.
Mr. Riddleberger asked for the imme
diate consideration of the resolution.
Mr- Cockrell rejected.
Mr. Pugh said he would submit, eith
er today or tomorrow, a substitute for
Mr. Riddlebergers resolution.
The matter went over.
Mr. Stanford offered a concurrent res-
olution, which was agreed to. providing
oir investigation by the Committee on
Public Buildings, of both houses of Con
gress, into the charges made in 1853. and
now bt.ing renewed, against the official
conduct of Samuel Strong, during his
superintendency of public buildings.
jit. i-ugn submitted his substitute for
the Riddleberger resolution, and asked
that it be presented and lie over till to -
morrow. .
Mr. Hoar inquired whether the ie
quest to print included the printing cf
a stump speech in the belly of the reso-
lu"on ,, .
-Ylr. Ingalls gave notice that when the
original and substitute resolutions
should come up tomorrow, he would
move to refer them to the committee on
privileges and elections for further con-
sideration.
The resolution, according to the re -
quest, was laid over till tomorrow.
The Electoral Count bill then came upj
and Mr. Eyarts took the floor. lie
favored the recommittal of the bill to
the committee.
iur. can, wnile deemins the bill a .
good one m some respects, deemed it de-I
fective in others, and proposed an
amendment to the effect that in the case
of the non rnhrnr th t

the vote of a State) resulted in taking l 000 lbs- of willow leaves, disguised as
a way the majority required by the Con-
stitution. or when by not counting the i
vote cf a State an election should be had
of a person different from the person i
who would be elected if the vote were '.
counted : that in these two emergencies,
it should be declared that there was no
election, and that the House of Repre
sentatives should make an election as
required by the Constitution.
Mr. Hoar opposed recommittal.
Mr. Wilson opposed the bill.
Mr. Evarts submitted as an amend-
ment. that it should he th dnfv nf th :
nxecutive f each State, as soon as
practicable after the final ascertainment
of the appointment of electors in each
State, to communicate under the seal of
the State to the Secretary of State of the
Lnited States a certificate showing the j
result ot such ascertainment, setting j
forth the names of the electors and ;
other particulars and to deliver to the j
electors of such State a eimilar certifi-
cate in triplicate; such certificate to the j js thonght to represent the famous Pha

however, as well as in the committee.
Mr. Saulsbury favored recommittal.
Mr. George had listened carefully to
the arguments urged against Mr. Sher
man's amendment, but had not been
shaken in the belief that the vote of the
two houses, acting as a joint body, con
stituted in the last resort the best way
out ofthe difficulty. The Constitution
intended that the vote of a State should
be counted and did not contemplate re
jection of the vote, simply because of a
difference bet ween the two houses. He
hoped the bill would be recommitted.
Alter further debate the motion to re
commit was brought to a vote and re
sulted yeas 30, nays 22. The affirma
tive vote being about equally divided
between Republicans and Democrats.
All the proposed amendments went
with the bill.
The Dakota Bid was placed before the
Senate and Mr. Logan obtained the tloor
on it. but gave way for a motion to go
into executive session.
At 8:45 p. m. the Senate went into ex
ecutive session, and at 5:35 the doors
were reopened and the Senate ad
journed .
House Immediately after the read
ing of the Journal Mr. Holman. of Ind.,
offered the fol lowdng resolutions:
Resolved. That the House has received
with profound sorrow the intelligence
of the death of Thomas A. Hendricks,
late Vice President of the United
States.
Resolved, That the business of the
House be suspended, in order that the
eminent services and private virtues ol
the deceased may be appropriately com-.
memorated.
Resolved. That the Clerk of the House ,
be directed to communicate these reso
lutions to the Senate.
Eulogies upon the dead Vice President

of Indiana, who represents Mr. Hen
