Congress which has just passed
away has written a record that will
be long remembered by the poor and
friendless, whom it did not forget.
Misrepresented or misunderstood by
those who denounced it as enemies,
harshly and uniustifedly criticized by
some who should have been its
friends, it has proved itself to have
been more faithful to human progress
than any of its predecessors. The

these Congressional halls champions

The report of the Committee on
the alleged frauds in the New York
Custom House exposes the most
reprehensible conduct on the part
of the present Collector, Mr..
Smythe. There appears to have been
established what was called general
order business, which Mr.. Symthe
sold out, and that Peter Van Bergen,
George E. Thompson, Senators Doo-
little and Patterson, and a Mrs. Perry
had interests in the business. 8
Mr.. Smythe informed Mr.. Hum
phrey that he had obtained $4,000
per annum for this business from
Messrs. Miller & Conger. On Mr..
Humphreys remonstrance against be-
ing trihed with in this manner, Mr..
Smythe coolly offered a gratuity Of
$4,000 out of this. 1t was shown that
the $4,000 was divided as follows
George. f. Thompson, late of the
Daily Neaos, S., 900; Senators Doolittlt
and Patterson, 5000 each; Embree
Deputy Collector, $1,000; Humphrey
and by him at once rejected, $1,000
Brown, Private Secretary of the Col
lector, and by him rejected, $1,000
political fund, $4,000; Mrs. Perry
known as Washington woman, So,

assertion that he was not to hav,

INDIANAPOLIS, March A.
The Senate was not in session dur
ing the forenoon. In the House this
morning the Committee on Temper
ance reported back the Woleott Bill,
(Which has passed the Senate) with
amendments. Its passage is consider
ed very doubtful. A resolution was
offered in favor of investigating the
cause and cure of milk sickness"
After an animated debate the resolu-
tion was tabled Most of the forenoon
was occupied by bills in the second
reading.
The Senate this afternoon passed
the following bills: Amending the act
for opening vacation and change of
highways; the Joint resolution
destroying bills and plates in
the State Auditors office; the
bill to provide rules and bylaws
for the government of railroads; the

This action will probably defeat the
