Mr. Hoar called up the Electoral Count bill, but yielded to Mr. Vanwyck, w ho desired the Widows1 Pension In crease bill taken up. After a brief dis cussion the Widows' Pension bill went over till tomorrow-. A message from the House notified the Senate of the death of Representa tive Hahn. of Louisiana, and on motion of Mr. Eustis. out of respect to the mem ory of the deceased, the Senate ad journed. House. Alter the reading- of the Journal, Mr. St. Martin, of Louisiana, i briefly announced the death of his col leage. Michael Hahn. and offered reso lutions expressive of the regret with trhl,.!. tl.n rtrrnso in c linnt-a Iho i'r,f.ll; grnce of Mr. Hahn's death, providing ! for the appointment of a joint select committee consisting of seven members and three Senators to take order for conducting the funeral ceremonies, and to escort the remains to the place of burial, and adjourning the House as a turtner ruam ot. respect to tne memory of the deceased. Pending this, Mr. Bland, of Missouri, asked unanimous consent that tomorrow be devoted to the consideration of the same clas? of business that would have been in order today. There were some indications of objec- j tioiis to the order, but unanimous con sent was finally given. j Mr. St. Marten's .'resolution was then j adopted unanimously, aud the House accordingly, at 12:20, adjourned. i Senate. March 16. A letter was. re- ceived from the Secretary of the Navy i transmitting the report of a recent sur- vey of the Niagara canal route by civil ' engineers. The House bill increasing the pensions of soldiers' widows was then taken up. j After debate the bill w as passed as came from the House. j The bill inoreases pensions of widows I and dependent relatives of soldiers from I 8S to -812 per month, and now only needs the President's signature to be come a law. j j At 2 p. m, the Judiciary Committee 8 resolutions were taken up, Mr. Cullom being entitled to the flobr; bnt he gave way to Mr. Morrill for a few moments, so that the Senator might make an ex planation. He said that Mr. Kenna, in his speech a few days ago, had alluded to a letter written by Mr. Morrill, as chairman of the Finance Committee, to the Secretary of the Treasury, in which the Secretary was asked for the papers relating to the reasons for the suspen sion of the Internal Revenue Collector, anu had represented that that letter was the beginning of the controversy between the Senate and the President. When Congress met, Mr. Morrill said, it was promulgated thai this Adminis tration, or at least the Treasury Depart ment, was to be administered on busi ness principles, therefore, following the usual custom of the committee he had made the iuquiry alluded to. The Sec retary in this instance naa respondeat promptly furnishing the committee with the reasons which had prompted the suspension of the revenue officer. This reply and papers accompanying it, a letter w ritten by the suspended man, were so satisfactory that the nomina tion of his successor was reported favor ably to the Senate by the unanimous vote of the committee. Mr. Cullom then took the lloor in support of the Edmunds' resolution. Replying to the remarks of the Senator from West Vir ginia Mr. Kenna) as to what constituted a public paper. Mr. Cullom said the im portance or relevancy of papers must be judged by their substance. The rele vancy of the hypothetical letters sug gested by Mr. Kenna was apparent. Mr. Maxey followed Mr. Cullom. The real question at i?sue, he said, was one of grave importance. The Duskin case had been merely seized on as an occa sion to raise an issue with tlie President as to the point involved. Tlie real ob ject was to ascertain the President's reasons for suspensions or removals of otlicers. It was an attempt to do indi rectly w hat confessedly could not be done directly. The report of the ma jority of the Committee ou Judiciary Mr. Maxev characterized as simply a stump speech, dignified with the name f of a committee report. Complaint, he said, was made iu that majority report. that lilta suspensions liau been made under this Administration. ilie com plaint made bv the people. Mr. Maxey .-aid. was that there had not been ten : times 0 1 :i removals. The significance! .!' the election of 1;-1 wa- that the peo- pie wanted a change from Republican t i Ii inocratic methods, principles and police. What was wanted and expected was a L'emocrati Administration I n d. stem, and branch. Genuine civil i service reform demanded that tlie Ex ecutive, who was requireu uy tne eou--titution to take care of the laws, were 1. ithfullv executed, should have the lection of honest and competent agents : accord with the policy indicated by n is of i i. The object of the majority nmittee was to stop the re Republicans from i nice, f till un necessary verbiage iiapp the simple issue was where and in whom the power of removal lodged by tie' Constitution'.' The minority of the sen..',- stood not only on the letter of tii.- i 'on-titution. but upon the decisions tic II g ia r the a'.hers recogniz -d by the first . by all succeeding Congresses, urts and bv the commentators the i ' institution.

April 1st, and the same be again taken up Tuesday. April Cth, after the ! morning hour, for the same considera 1 tion of bills reported by the committee, and so to continue from day to day un til disposed of: provided, that unless 1 sooner ordered by the House, the pre ;' vious question 3hall be pending thereon at 3 p. m. on Thursday , April 8th, this i order not to interfere with the Revenue of General Appropriation bills except on Thursday, iipril 8th, fixed for the final disposition of the order. Mr. Hiscock (N. Y.) demanded a sec ond, which was secured yeas, 1)7, nays 28. ! Mr. Hiscock and others opposed the resolution, which, however, was agreed to yeas 179, nays 87. The announce ment of the vote was received with a hearty applause from the silver advo cates. The vote is not regarded as a test vote, as such well-known opponents of free coinage of silver as Rayne and Scott (Pa.) and Findley (Me.) ivoted in the affirmative, while Mr. Curtin (Pa.), Mr. Dougherty (Fla.) and Mr. Blount (Ga ), who at first voted nay, changed at the solicitation of friends who desired the matter discussed. Had it not been for the changes the motion would have fallen short of the necessary two thirds in the affirmative, Mr. Regan moved, and the House adopted the resolution making the In terstate Commerce bill a continuing ol der for April 13. The vote was yeas lay, nays 44. the llouse then, at 5 p. m" adjourned. Washington, March 17. Senate. Among the memorials presented in the Senate today was one by Mr. Evarts em bodying resolutions adopted by the Chamber of Commerce of New York 'City, earnestly impressing upon Con- gress tne importance to tne growing commerce of that city of the construc tion of the proposed bridge across; the Arthur Kill, betweem New Jersey and Staten Island, end urging the passage of the bill pending befors Congress auth orizing the construction of the bridge. The Electoral Count bill was then taken up, and Mr. Hoar addressed the Senate in erapport of the bill. ' ' Mr. George spoke-in opposition to .the bill. Several messages from the President were laid before the Senate, one of them being unsigned.. At the suggestion of the chair, anct oB motion of Mr. Cock rell, this message was returned to the President for his signature. At 2 o'clock the Edmunds resolution was laid before 4b Senate asd Mr. Dolph tohk the floor and continued his remarks iu favor of the adoption of the resolution. Mr. Coke followed Mr. Dolph in oppo sition to the adoption of the resolu tion. Mr. Wilson (MU.) opposed the report of the majority. Mr. Wilson commented on the' fact that Duskin had mJe no complaint, but had assumed that he was suspended for political partisanship. Mr. Beck said it wbs no wonder Dus kin was not here for himself. He was nominated in 1881, and the Senate did not see fit to confirm him. He was nominated a second time, but the Sena tor from Vermont meaning Mr. Ed munds had not felt justified in report ing him for confirmaiion. Mr. Edmunds rose and said, the Sen ator from Kentucky was violating the duty of a Sen-tor in respect to executive session proceedings. Mr. Beck denied this and said the pub lic papers showed that Duskin had been nominated three times, and added that because the Senator from Vermont knew he was unworthy, the papers were asked for with a view to entrapping the department. Mr. Edmunds insisted Mr. Beck was out of order, and appealed to the chair to decide the question. The chair thought Mr. Beet would see the distinction and observe the rules. j Mr. Beck repeated his remark about the Senator from Vermont not acting on the nomination, when Mr. Edmunds again appealed to the chair to enforce the rules. The chairman remarked that Mr. Beck had an undoubted right to refer to pub lic facts, and Mr. Beck interrupted him and said he had done so, and more than that, he would tomorrow prove these facts by the press of the country, and also that Duskin was utterly unfit to hold the place fro i which he was re moved. After further debate of a personal nature. Mr. Beck moved that all papers in Duskin 's case before the Judiciary Committee, or on the tiles of the Senate, be published, so that his charge that l Duskin was unfit tor the place could De sustained. After debate the motion was referred to the Judiciary Committee, and then, I after business of minor importance was t transacted, the Senate went into execu t tive session, and after a short time tho doors were thrown open and the Senate adjourned. House. Mr. Caswell (Wis ), from i the Judiciary Committee, reported back i 1 the resolutions calling on the Secretary ! i of the Treasury for a statement of the! account between the bnitea states ana the several States and Territories of ' taxes levied and apportioned by the act j of lbOl. Adopted. j Mr. Crisp Ga.), from the Committee I on Commerce, reported a bill authoriz ing additional life saving stations. ! Placed on the calendar. i 1 Mr. Cox (N. C. ). from the Committee j I on Civil Service Reform, reported a bill I to provide an Assistant Civil Service Examiner. Referred to the committee of the whole. Mr. Burns (Mo.), from the Commit 1 tee on Appropriations, reported back i the Urgent Deficiency Appropriation , bill with Senate amendments. Mr. Burncs explained the report of the com mittee. The committee found neither 1 law nor constitutional authority for the appropriation to pay the expenses of General Grant's funeral, but it found precedents and felt constrained to rec ommend an appropriation for all legiti mate expenses approved by ! Hancock. Some items of ucuc' expenses : amounting to ClS.UUU or t'J.UUU, unis oi the New York militia, the committee i think Congress could not allow without allowing the bills ot the raihtia which had come from Massachusetts. New Jer.-ey and Chicago. The military es tablishment of Massachusetts had ex pended over tlO 000 in sending militia to New York, and yet Massachusetts had asked no return, and the g'eat citv of Chicago had declined to present any bill'on this occasion.

He then went ou to discuss the question of Indian education and declared that lor the last few y ears Congress had been 1 oi lo w ing tlie right track .
