Optinn BUI Agmlm Broi(kt Bfor th
Boos.
Washing ton, March 6. Kr. Money,
Democrat, of Mississippi, offered in the
House this morning, a joint resolution
authorizing the Secretary of the Navy to
appoint a cadet to the Naval Academy
from the filth district of South Carolina.
This grew out of a case where a cadet
was appointed from Alabama upon the
failure of the Representative from that
district to appoint, but credited to boats
Carolina.'
Mr. Hopkins, Republican, of Illinois,
said the case was not unique ; that the
same thing had occurred in Illinois
The Secretary of the Navy, he said, had
violated the law in this case, ana what
was to be done was to compel the Secre
tary to vacate the appointment from the
South Carolina. district. He objected to
the further consideration of the resolu
tion, whereupon Mr. Money said he would
?resent it as a matter of privilege involv
ng the rights of the member from the
firth district of Booth Carolina.
Upon this point, the chair and Mr
Money got into a colloquy. The Speaker
said the effect of the resolution would be
to increase the number of cadets which
would be a change of the law. If the
appointment made by Secretary Herbert
was. unauthorized, it was illegal and void,
and the resolution was unnecessary to
remedy the wrong.
Mr. Hatch, Democrat, ol Missouri, said
this was not the first time where the
Secretary had on the failure of a member
to nominate a cadet, and appointed an
alternate outside of the State in which
the member's district was located. It
was, he claimed, a violation of the law,
and the practice should be stopped.
The Speaker stated that the resolution
was not a privileged one and it was with
drawn under objection.
The resolution on authorizing an in
vestigation of the famous order issued by
Judge Jenkins in the Northern Pacific
receivership case was called np by Mr.
Boatner, Democrat, of Louisiana, and
passed.
On motion of Mr. Meyer, democrat, oi
Louisiana, Saturday, April 7, was Bet
apart for the delivery of eulogies in the
House upon the late Senator Randall H.
Gibson, of Louisiana.
Referring to the resolution proposed by
Mr.Money,Mr.8trait, Democrat,of South
Carolina,rose to a personal privilege ques
tion and related the circumstances sur
rounding the appointment of a naval ca
det by the Secretary of the Navy credited
to his district (the fifth South Carolina )
He offered a resolution declaring the ap
pointment to be unauthorized and void,
with a view or Having it vacated.
Mr. Cummings, Democrat, of Mew
York, said the original resolution had
been referred to the committee on naval
affairs, and that it had reported a bill in
terpreting the law so that in the future
such appointments would be impossible.
Mr. Hatch, Democrat, ol Missouri
'Let me suggest that that does not go far
enough. We should right the wrongs
already done." (Applause.)
Mr. Bankhead, Democrat, of Alabama,
gave his connection with the matter,
which was that he had lost the appoint
ment from his district under the last ad
ministration, and that the Secretary of
the Navy, acting under what he believed
to be sufficient suthority in the matter,
had appointed a candidate from his dis
trict and credited him to the fifth South
Carolina district. It transpired in the
coarse of a rather rambling discussion
that several other Representatives were
in the same fix as the member from South
Carolina
Mr. Hopkins, Republican, of Illinois,
suggested that theciae should be met by
a general law and not by special legisla
tion. Mr. Strait's resolution was agreed
to.
On motion of Mr. O'NeiJ, Democrat,
of Massachusetts, the House went into
committee of the whole on the pension
appropriation bill, with an agreement to
close general debate at 3 o'clock to-morrow.
Mr. Enloe, Democrat, of Tennessee,
had read the additional section, of which
he gave notice yesterday, interpreting
the law of December 21, 1893, so that a
pension believed to have been procured
by fraud upon the United fctates, may
be temporarily suspended, pending ex
amination. General Sickles, Democrat, of New
York, was the first speaker. Pension
aws, Mr. sickles said, had all been voted
for by all parties and the present bill was
approved on all sides. It appropriated a
larger sum than was ever voted for pen
sions by any government. "That is
good policy f" he said, "if you would
have good soldiers in the next war, take
good care of the soldiers of the past war.
Applause J
To the Commissioner of Pensions, he
said, was committed a vast responsibility
and great trust. He must of neces
sity confide much of his duty to
subordinate officers. They may not al
ways have the judicial faculties, they
may not always be active and vigilant ia
the examination of claims. Congress
has a right to expect from the commis
sioner and his superior officer, the Secre
tary of the Interior and especially from
the President, a wise and liberal adminis
tration of the principles enunciated in
the President's letter of acceptance. But
he could not, Mr. Sickles said, agree with
the Commissioner of Pensions in respect
to his interpretation of the law 1893.
In his letter to congress, in answer to
the resolution of inquiry, the commis
sioner .had said that the law was "inex
act" and "inapt." Before that letter had
been sent to Congress, his superior
should have returned it to the commis
sioner with a direction to treat Congress
and its legislation with more respect.
Laughter and applause.
"The commissioner is as faulty in his
law as he ia in his manners. He need
only have consulted a law dictionary to
determine the meaning of the words
right and rested right.' For his in
formation I will read from Bou
vier. Mr. Sickles then quoted from
that well known authority and
said their use in the statute was
apt, appropriate and accurate, the au
thority of the pension office to the con
trary notwithstanding. So that we not
only have bad manners in the pension
office but bad laws." Continuing on this
point, Mr. Sickles said that the declara
tion of right contained in the act of De
cember 21, 1893, had been accepted by the
pension office itself long before the act
was passed. He read from a compilation
of the pension laws issued by the bureau,
saying: "They print them for another
people to read; they ought to read
them themselves " He had marked
20 sections in that compilation which
said that upon a certain state of facts be
ing shown, the claimant shall be entitled
to so many dollars a month for the gov
ernment. The whole pension policy of
the government was based upon the
rights of the pensioner. The country
frowned when it saw the maxims ef com
mon justice violated in the Interior De
partment, in the consideration of the
claims of the wards of the nation. The
iawof 13 was passed pursuant to that
sentiment, and it would stand. :
In conclusion General Bickles said:
"So much for the law of this case. In
larger and broader sense, before the pen
sion laws were passed, the people of this
country decreed that from time to time,
as en expression of their grateful appre
ciation of the services pf the defend?rs cf
i - - t - . -
the Union, ample sums of money should
be appropriated as an expression of the
nation's gratitude. That decree is as
good to -day in the hearts of the Ameri
can people as it was when made and that
decree will never be modified, reconsia
ered or revoked as long as one surviving
soldier of the war lives." Applause
Mr. Grosvenor, Republican, of Onio,
quoted the statement in the rresiuenvs
message that thousands or the neighbor
hoods of the country had their fraudu
lent pensioners. Be denounced the
statement as slanderous and untrue.
He said that there were more frauds
committed every day in the New York
custom house than had been committed
by all the Union veterans together
There were more illicit stills, ten to one.
ne cnarged,than could be round frauds on
the pension roll, if there were zuo fraud
ulent pensioners on the roll the Commis
sioner of Pensions should; be impeached
ior incompetency.
Mr. Grosvener referred to Mr. Black's
charge in his speech that eight com
panics of a certain Northvfestern, loo
day's regiment had contributed 614 names
to the pension roll for disabilities in
curred in that term of service. The regi
ment, he said, was the 182d Ohio Volun
teer Infantry. It was an organization
composed of veterans of two and three
years' service, enlisted for a year and not
for 90 days, as Mr. Black had stated, and
its service was arduous and valuable.
Upon the question of fraudulent pen
sions, Mr. Grosevener said he had been
informed by an official in (the Pension
Bureau that the greatest number of fraud
ulent pensions upon the roll were placed
there by the gentleman from Illinois,
Mr. Black when he was Commissioner
of Pensions, under the Mexican Veteran
bill.
Mr. Grosvener was paying come
attention to the record of the gentleman
from Tennessee, Mr. Enloe on the
pension question when Mr. Kilcore broke
into his remarks: "May I tell the gentle
man from Ohio that I am much more
friendly to the Union soldier than I used
to be?"
To which Mr. Grosvener responded:
I have no doubt that you learned some
thing by rubbing up against him."
L Laughter, j
Mr. Grosvener dwelt at length upon
tne suspension of Uhio pensioners in
ltttM, and the reinstatements in order to
State last November. Of 2,000 suspen-
sionera, he said that over 1,300 were rein
stated without examination, and that the
action was a crime which in any other
than a political bureau would have raised
storm of indignation and protest
throughout the country.
Mr. coombs, Democrat, of .New York,
said he supposed that when this bill had
been reported to the House there would
be nothing to do but to vote for its pas
sage, as it was the unanimous expression
of The committee Bat he had forgotten,
he said that the House of Representatives
was the place for making records for its
members, and so for the past few days
the old stories have been re-told. He
said that the claims of the Republicans
to be only friends of the soldier were not
well founded ; that there were among
the Democrats, including those who
were oar enemies during tbe war, just as
true and faithful friends of the soldier as
the other side could show. "
Mr. Mahon, Republican, of Pennsyl
vania, eaid that the pension policy of
the Democratic party and administra
tion had aroused the antagonism of not
only the old soldiers bat of members of
the party. The vote iu the recent elec
tion in Pennsylvania by which Mr. Grow
was ichosen Representative-at large by
the large majority of 188,000 conid not
be charged altogether to the tariff ques
tion. He believed that fully 25,000 Dem
ocratic soldiers in his State voted the
Republican ticket to express their opin
ion of the present policy of the adminis
tration. As to the responsibility for that policy.
Mr. Mahon said Commissioner Lockren
would not and did not originate Cr exe
cute a single important act without the
knowledge and direction of the Presi
dent. If this system of attack upon the
soldiers was persisted in, the Speaker
prophesied at the next congressional
election Pennsylvania would return a
solid Republican delegation. Mr Mahon
gave notice of an amendment he propos
ed to offer, making a pension
unless obtained by fraud. acci
dent or mistake, a vested right, and shall
be so held by all the courts and officers
of tbe United States.
At 5:40 o'clock the committee rose and
the House adjourned until to-morrow at
noon.
THE POLITICAL POT BOILING.
Warm Times
Jolt Ahead
in Sooth
Carolina,
Special to the Observer.
fcrARTANBCRG, S. C , March 6. The
political horn sounded here yesterday.
and a mighty blast of reformers respond
ed to the call, and there is big fan ahead.
The executive committee had a meet
ing in the court house yesterday. They
were assisted hy a crowd from the front
ranks of the reform party. March tbe
24th was the day fixed for the grand
blow out and mass meeting.
John Gary Evans is in the lead, and he
will be the first to be invited by the invi
tation committee. A motion was made
and carried to icvite all the prospective
candidates for the gubernatorial nomina
tion . A motion was then made to invite
Senator Irby, but after some discussion it
was promptly voted down.
The reformers' meeting yesterday at
Abbeville, 8. C, was in every respect a
Gary Evans boom. He made a lengthy
talk, in which Cleveland and the Demo
cratic financial policy was abused. CoL
Evans is in the race for Governor on his
own hook, and is not a candidate of
any man or faction. He praised Till
man and his dispensary law. In his
speech he swallowed up all the platforms
and called for more.
The Tillman spies made a big haul
here to day. They captured "a horse and
wagon and two boxes of contraband
liquors. The tie-up of the horse and
wagon will likely cause litigation, as
they belong to Mr. R. D. Blowers, who
runs the city transfer. When captured,
the goods were in transit from the Air
Line depot to the city. The spies
mounted the wagon and carried the whole
lay-out, driver and all, to the jaiL
The poetoffice at Clifton was broken
into last night and robbed of about $30
and a registered package. The postoffice
is in a small room in a furniture store.
The thief made his way into the office by
boring a number of holes around the
lock, and then with a small saw he sawed
the lock from the door. It is supposed
that the robber cone sal ed himself in the
store during the day and waited until
night to do his work. There is no clue
as to who committed the deed.

dent reached the White House at 1:45
o'clock this afternoon, after a nine days'
trip through the North Carolina sounds,
looking as well and strong as at any time
since he first came to Washington nine
vears ago. His rnddv face showed un
mistakable signs of exposure to the sun
and wind during his trip ror recreation
and rest, and bis step was noticeably
more elastic than when he went away.
Friends who called late this afternoon
to see the President were assured that he
had never in his life had a mere enjoy
able hunting trip. Every moment of it
had been a delight to him, and, as for
substantial results, he asked his friends
to look at his bronzed face and hands,
and then at the pile of swan, wild geese
and turkeys that he had brought back
with him.
Capt. Evans, of the light house board,
who was in charge of the President's
party, stated that from a sportsman's
view the trip was eminently successful
and nearly every day after reaching the
North Carolina coast the entire party
enjoyed excellent shooting. The trip
down the river, capt. JSvana said, was
entirely without incident. A blizzard
which had been threatening Sunday
overtook the Violet below Fort Wash
ington, and when Quantico was reached
it was deemed prudent to anchor for the
night, as the storm was so thick that the
pilot could not see a ship's length ahead
of him. The second night was spent at
Portsmouth, Va-; the third at Long
Point, N. C : the fourth night at Croa-
tan Sound, N. C; the fifth and sixth
nights at Hatteras: the seventh night on
the return trip at Roanoke Marshes; the
eighth night at Long Point, and the
ninth night (last night) the vessel ran all
night.
While lying at uatterae tne i-resioeni
and party took a steam launch and vis
ited the neighboring inlets and light
houses in that vicinity. He met a num
ber of the people inhabiting that section
and shook hands with them. He was
treated with the utmost reepect and
consideration by all.
Mr. Cleveland buckled down to work
a few minutes after he reached the White
House. In ten minutes after he sat down
at his desk, he and Private Secretary
Thurber had disposed of a pile of routine
business.
Soon after 3 o'clock Secretary Carlisle
called on the President and the two had
a talk over the Secretary's matters. By
the President's direction, the wagon load
of game was distributed at the houses
of all the cabinet officers by Private Sec
retary Thurber and Captain Evans.
THB SOCTH'S COTTON MILLS.
Nortb Carolina Has tbe Most Mills and
Spindles ; Bontb Carolina tbe Most
Looms.
Baltimore, March 6. The location cf
every cotton mill in the South, with the
number of spindles and looms in each,
was published in the Manufacturers'
Record this week. The article states that
in 1880 the South had 161 cotton mills,
with 667,854 spindles. By 1890 they had
increased in number to 255 mills with
1.766 553 spindles. The South now has
409 mills with 2,763.879 spindles and 62,
052 looms. In addition to this the mills
projected will have between 50,000 and
75,000 Bpindles. Tbe it crease in spindles
last year was over 200,000.
North Carolina leads in the number of
spindles, with 655,000 in operation in
1893, while South Carolina leads in looms
with 16,200. North Carolina has the lar
gest number of mills, but as the majority
of them are small, the aggregate number
of their spindles exceeds South Caro
lina's by only 34,000.
(Georgia comes third on the list, with
556,000 spindles. The capital invested
in cotton manufacturing in the South has
increased from $21,976,713 in 1880 to $97,
000,000 in 1894
Thirty two mills have reported their
dividends for 1893, the average being 8.8
per cent , in addition to which most of
them laid aside a surplus for repairs or
extensions. Two mills paid 20 per cent.,
one 18 per cent., while the others ranged
from 12 to 4 per cent .
