XXXYI GONGRESS- SECOND SESSION
WASHINGTON, May 10
- SENATE.-A resolution was adopted thai
the Indian appropriation bill be taken mp.
Mr.. Doolittle offered an amendment au-
thortzing the President to apply the sppro-
priations to certain tribes; also author
izing the President that, where tribes or
organizations had taken up arms against
the Government, to abrogate all treaties
with them. The amendment was adobted.
Mr.. Clark moved to take up the confsca-
ton bill reported from the Special Commit
Tee.
Mr., Fessenden said he was going to ask
the Senate to take up the tax bill. He was
in favor of both bills, but his position on
the Committee made it his duty to urge
the passage of the tax bill.
Mr.. Wade was in favor of trying to
make the rebels pay part of the cost of the
war before proceeding to tax loyal men.
Mr. Henderson thought there would be
no very great revenue derived from the
bill as reported. He supposed the burdens
Of the tax bill would be imposed on some
Of the rebel States as well as the loyal
States.
