The Senate then went into executive Seq
sion, and also adjourned till Wednesday.
A HOUSE DISCUSSION ON .1MpEAcHMEST-How
8 MUCH IT'S SUCCESS WILL BE WORTH.
After returning from impeachment, the
House took up the Senate appropriation for
impeachment expenses.
bfr. Ehridge said it was evident that
s10, 900 would not defray the expenses of
the impeachment trial, and he thought this
was mere blind. Why did not the COM
mittee come out boldly and say that this
was mere bagatelle to amuse the public?
Mr.. Washbnrne said if another appro-
priation was desired he would vote for it,
and he believed it would be worth s100, 600
to pay the expense.
Mr.. Eldridge asked if he understood that
the gentleman would give 100000 to make
the impeachment trial SUGGEST
Mr.. Washburne said he had not said that
exactly, but what he meant was that if i'm
peachment was success, it would be worth
not 100000, but sl00,000,0O0, to this
country in greater security to person. and
property. Applause in the galleries.
Mr.. Eldridge said he suspected as much.
This money was to be used to secure the
success of impeachment. He would not
vote dollar for such purpose.
Mr.. Washburne said he would not be mis-
understood, but he would reIterate that he
believed the country would be benefited to
the amount of millions of dollars by the re-
moval of the usurper and tyrant from the
White House.
The bill was passed.
Banks's bill about the rights of American
citizens abroad was lengthily discussed.
