Mr. Edmunds spoke until after 4 o'clock. Mr. Pugh rose to reply, but yielded to a motion to go into executive sesuon, saying he was prepared to spsak now, if he began he would detain the Senate until long after the usual hour of adjournment. -it 4 .j tue senate went into execu tive session, and at 5 o'clock adjourned. House The Speaker laid before the House the response of the Secretary of the Navy to the Routelle resolution, call ing for information in regard to the Norfolk navy yard. Mr. Boutelle aBke'd unanimous consent that tho document be ordered to be printed and laid upon the table, in order that he might, at some future time, submit some remarks upon it. He believed that the substan tial allegations made in his resolution were sustained by the document. Mr. Beach, of New York, and Mr. Eden, of Ills., objected to the request, and the communication w as referred to the Committee on Naval Affairs. Mr. Eldridge from the Committee on Pensions, reported tho bill granting pensions to soldiers and sailors of the Mexican war. Committee of the whole. In the morning hour the House passed the biil requiring Pacific Railroad to pay the cost of surveying their land, and to tike out patents thereto. . On behalf the Committee on Labor, Mr. James, of New York, called up the I bill to prohibit any officer, servant, or agent of the Government to hire or con tract out the labor of prisoners incarcer ated for violating the laws of the U. S Government. Mr. James said that the 1 bill was in the interest of the honest me chanics. Tho bill was passed yeas 249, nays S. The House then went into Committee of the Whole on the Indian Appropria tion bill. Mr. Wellborne. of Texas, briefly ran over the appropriations made by the bill and compared them with those made for the current year: summing up with the -tatement that the pending bill car ried to. 502.5(112 as against 95,777,451 ap propriated for the current year. Pending discussion of the bill the committee rose and the House ad journed. Senate. March 10. There was a large crowd of people iu the galleries j when the Senate met today. They had come rarlv to secure seats and went to hear Mr. Pugh's reply to Mr. Edmunds' i speech of yesterday. i At 2 p. m. Mr. Pugh took tho floor to J opp jse the Judiciary Committee resolu tion concerning the Attorney General, lie opened his speech by saying he had expressed his views fully upon the sub ject of debate in a report made by the minority ot the Judiciary Committee, j ana me main ooject ne naa now m re 1'lving to the Senator from Vermont to prevent that to prevent that senator irom cnariging the character of the question between tho Senate and the President. The real character of that controversy could not be misunderstood or misrep- j rt sen t ml . as ir hnil arisen rinon fact.i, an- , iaiciii upon inu itiLuiu ticiu iirj.niicia uy the majority of the Judiciary Commit- I tee. hen the Senator from Vermont j was tit the wheel, said Mr. Pugh, he i steered by his own chart; he never ran j on s-raight lines: he never consulted . other sailors, and he lost his temper w hen there was any question of the skill of his seamanship, and whun the officer ot the ship undertook to select- a crew to man it without his advice and con sent, he instantly headed a meeting. At the ride of incurring the displeasure of his honorable and distinguished friend, he bhould call a reckoning so that we! might understand where we are and w hither we are drifting. Tho facts by I which the Senate should be guided! were few and simple. Mr. Duskin, the I iistrict Attorney, was suspended on the ! 17th of January last, and on the same tay ;ur. iiurneti was uesignateu uy iuc Prtsident to discharge the duties of that office. On the lG:h of December, the Senate being in session, Burnett w as nominated to the Senate to get its a lvice and consent to his appointment. That nomination was referred to the Judiciary Committee, and it lay there o-.-.-r a month. In the meantime on De cember 'JO. I-?"), tho term of tho office of i,eorge M. buskin had expired.

Senator Pugh in dorsed all that the Senator from Ver mont had said about Mr. Thurman. and added. "Yes. Mr. President. Allen G. Thurman is the greatest and the wisest, and the purest American statesmon now living. "' Thus allusion to Mr. Thurman was followed by a loud burst of ap plause in the galleries, such as had greeted the mention of his name yester day. Mr. Pugh continuing, said he was surprised that the great Senator from Vermont, should invoke the authority of Senator Thurman to sustain iho claim now made on the Attorney Gen eral. He then read the letter signed by Mr. Thurman as chairman of the iudif ciary Committee, which was read yes terday by Mr. Edmunds, calling for pa pers relating to the removal of Gen. Shaffer of the Territory of Utah. Mr. Edmunds knew, Mr. Pugh eaid. that it was still an open question before the Judiciary Committee whether the terri torial judges were subject to the power of suspension. Mr. Thurman, as chair man of the Judiciary Committee, sent this request, under section 1,767 of the ! Revised Statutes, which makes territo I rial judges subject to removal, but only ! by and with the advice and consent of ! the Senate. Mr. Pugh read from speeches of Mr. Calhoun and Mr. Clay , to show that the views of these public i men supported 'the views of Mr. Ed munds, mat removal trom office was a legislative function under the control of Congress. He also had read what he considered a "luminous condensation" of the whole argument of this question prepewed. Mr. Pugh believed, by Chief Justice Chase, and embodying a speech which Senator Sprague delivered in the debate on the Tenure of office act, and in which the conclusion is reached that the cases involved was merely one of assent or dissent, and not a legislative function. From whatever branch this opinion originated, he defied the Sena tor from Vermont to answer the argu ment. Mr. Pugh concluded his speech by saying that his object had been to define tbe character of this conflict of authon 1 ty between the President and the Sen i ate, and to fortify the views that had always been taken by the Democratic party, and to fortify it by the authrities, commencing at the first Congress and 1 running down to the latest period. Mr. Cleveland had no fear of an appeal to ; the people. He was responsible to them. I He supposed the majority in the Senate i had no fear of appealing to the people in favor of tho omnipotence of the Senate. He knew the minority had none in ap- ! pealing to the Constitution and the l. . j tegrity of Mr. Cleveland's Administra ! tion. ' When Mr. Pugh finished his speech the Urgency Deficiency bill was taken ! up. The item of 185,000 deficiency in the Department of Justice, gave rise to some debate. ' Mr. Edmunds, Mr. Ingalls and Mr. ; Plumb commented on the fact that the deficiency was greater than under a Re i publican Administration, and Mr. Vor I hees, Mr. Bell, Mr. Call and Mr. Cock- rell defended the present administra i tion, and insisted that extraordinary expenditures were necessary in connec tion with the lawB in Utah. I Mr. Teller said the reason why the de- ficiency bills came before Congress at all i was because Congress did not do its ' duty in making appropriations in the j first place. ! Mr. Beck wanted the bill held over till I tomorrow, so he might look into it, but i a majority of the Senate wanted the bill I passed right away, and it was according ly passed. The Senate adjourned, leaving the iva- munda resolution the unfinished busi ness for 2 p.m. tomorrow. House. Mr. Herbeit (Ala.) reported from the Committee on Naval Affairs the bill to increase the naval establish ment.

Mr. Rogers (Ark.) from the Committee on Pacific Railroads, reported the bill requiring the Northern Pacific Railroad Company to pay the cost of surveying lands. The morning hour having expired. the ITouse went into committee of the whole )Mr. Townshend.of Illinois, in the chair) on the Indian Appropriation bill. Mr. Perkins (Kan.) reviewed the workings of the Indian Industrial Schools and spoke of them as accom plishing marvels in the education of In dian children. Mr. Cutcheon advocated the civiliza tion of the Indian by teaching the gos- nel of self-support. The five civilized tribes had made more advance in civili- zation in the last five years than the An glo-Saxon race had made in 500. Mr. Cannon (111.) severely criticized the present Indian policy, and thought it was time for Congress to inquire whether the monev appropriated for the civilization of the Indians accomplished the object sought. Pending further dis-cus.-ion the committee rose, and the House, at 3 p.m. adjourned. Strikers' Names Stricken Off. St. Louis, Mo., March 10. The Mis souri Pacific railroad today issued the following circular to the strikers: "You are hereby notified that your action in withdrawing from the employment of the Missouri Pacific railroad company was a voluntary abandonment of the service of the company and that you are no longer in its employment, and that vour names have been stricken from the rolls. All such who are now about the company 's premises are hereby notified that they must at ouce leave the same, to the end that this company may re sume its traffic. (Signed) Win. Kerri gan, general superintendent."' This order includes the delegation of men appointei by the Knights of Labor to guard the company's property. Al though the officials 'will make no state ment concerning the affair, it is gener ally believed that they are now cm ploving new men to take the place of ihe strikers and that a movement of freight will be attempted tonight. Should this prove true, the Knights of La. her will undoubtedly oiler resistan - e. Generous Donation.

A r-iinn ni before Hie YVuyaandBIeans ComniiiU'i-, Kic, Ktr. Washington. March S. Civil Service Commissioner Trenholm appeared be fore the Ways find Means committee to day to express his views upon sections, of the Morrison Tariff bill tcuching rice. ' He said that the duty on rice imported into the Pacific States was paid by Chi nese laborers, who were consumers, and was almost tiie only tax raid by the' Chinese. Mr. Trenholm told of thV ill t elfect un rice plantations in this country resulting from disuse during the war and said that if production should be. impaired at this, tune it would be diffi cult or almost impossible to re-establish the sources of supply within a long ' period. The land was fit for no other purpose, and the iaboring people would drift away and could not be recalled. Secretary Folger had made a ruling as similating broken rice meal under the t name of granulated rice, and that ruling had the elfect of increasing the importa tion of that class- of rice from elevea million pounds to two hundred and seventy-five million, and prices had fallen from four to two cents per pound ' The law should contain a provision, against the introduction of any rice at a rate of duty that was not intended to be applied to it. If it was the intention to let in this rice at a lower rate of duty it e would be better tOBtate it specifically in tha tariff and not leave tbe rate to be fixed by the unstable Treasury rulings- a Almost the entire cost of the rice produo-.. tion was in labor ninety cents in -tbe" dollar, he Bhould say. ' b Mr. Trenholm told of a planter .wbq., had abandoned this plantation because he found that a cross-road storekeeper was selling East India rice to bis labor ers. Mr. Trenholm admitted that he had free trade ideas generally; but said that if the protective pystetn were main tained, then he should regard tbejtarifl a on rice as a necessity. ProtectiOB.cn- . hanced the costof all labor and this coun try could not compete in rice cultore!' with Asiatic nations with their cheap, y labor, without including rice in the list of protected articles. In answer to'titi' Hewitt, he said that there should be, A . uniform duty on rice, and another 'to cover rice flour. ' I ,7i, Mr. Hewitt pointed out that that. pa, the present law. In effect, the difficulty seemed to be in the interpretation ot tbd,!!r law the discrimination -between true flour and broken rice. r - jTli Mr. Trenholm suggested' that' rice might be graded by its size, to ibe -deter mined by screens; all, .above a certain, j. size to be regarded as rice and all beTow that size to be graded as rice flour. "!'f Representative Dibble, of S. 0,.dis .;i cussed the matter from the laborera' point of view, saying that labor etttJy ployed in rice culture formed an appr-( ciable part of the country's laboring population, and was entitled to'consice" J eration at the hands of the conimitte;u; Representative Gay. of La., spojee of .g ' the excessive cost of harvest' labor ok" rice plantations in his State as compared! with cheap East Indian labor. He, saidjj : that it had become the practice' for 1 European exporters to break; up'Whttl! grains of rice so. as to take advantage of, f the low tariff on 'that grade 4o this. country. ' '-;'; Mr. Morrison, representing rice deal': r era, eaid that the brewers consumed broken rice to the extent of several million bushels per month, and that thae production of this country was too small : " to supply the demand. It had 'beent shown that Southern dealers bought. a foreign broken rice, mixed it with their',.; whole grain, and 6ent it West for sale; ' Rice was a necessity in brewing light U . colored beers, as our native barley was : too dark in color for the purpose.' Nearly all the broken rice was ustd. inbrewingr-'. and not one respectable grocer in ,Hsirrw York could be found who would state that broken rice was sold by thenar for1' food. Mr. Louis Schade said that one brew ing firm in the West used an amount of broken rice equal to tbe.entire -produc- -tion of the country. , H. B. James, representing a firm' of New York rice dealers, also contended' that the native production was toosmalj. to meet the brewers' demand. T. S. Wilkinson, of Louisian, planter and miller, denied that Louisiana .deal ers mixed foreign broken rice with the horns product. He declared that there1 ': " was no opportunity for fraud. , Im- , , ported broken rice was fit for food, and two-thirds of the Louisiana' crop' this1' year was a very little better than broken i: rice. ....
