HoUsE-Stevens, rising to a per-
sonal explanation, referred to the
correspondence published in the New
York Herald on Monday, and ques-
toned the propriety of publishing a
private conversation. He admitted
the views attributed to him. The
views were correctly stated, but he
disc Glaimed the remarks attributed to
him in reference to his colleague.
Bromall was granted permission to
have his name recorded In the affir
native on the passage on the recon
struction BILL

such other members as desired it.

and apply the provisions of the Home

Robinson, of New York, offered a
resolution directing the Committee on
Foreign Affairs to report Immediately
whether any American citizen has
been arrested, convicted or sentenced
in Great Britain or Ireland for words
spoken or acts done in the United
States. In support of the resolution,
he sent to the Clerks desk, and had
read, statement of the case of S. j.
Meany. He trusted there was spirit
enough in the nation, and weight of
metal enough in the army and navy
to take Mr.. Meany out of prison and
bring him back, even if in that march
toward the prison it became necessary
to tread down the nation who held
him.
Wood said that from personal OBJ
servation within six weeks in IreAnd,
he was satisfied as to the Insecurity
of every American in that country.
He presented a statement in the case
of Col. W.y. Nagle, native of New
York, and an officer of the Federal
army, who was arrested on his way to
Waterford, and now held prisoner
He asked his colleague, Robinson, to
allow his resolution to apply to Nagle.
