! WASHINGTON, June l9.---Scnate
bill introduced transferring the con.
troll of the Freodmen's Bureau. The
vote rejecting the bill relieving en-
porters ofdistilled rum was reconsid-
cred. The bill passed. Pacific Rail-
road matters were discussed all day.
Adjourned.
The House bill regulating the
carrying Of passengers by steam
vessels passed without division.
Yhe Coference Committee report,
and the bill relieving political disa
bilities were defeated-26 to 55-not
two thirds, on account of two dem
ocrats from the list joining the re-
publicans who oppose pardon entire,
ly. This result produced much dis
satisfaction. The republicans de-
clared that without this bill Con-
grcssional reconstruction would be
failure, and untold evils would re-
suit. Broomall, who had changcd
his vote for the purpose, moved a
reconsideration, which prevailed,
and the question continued on Mon
day. D ju1 - N1.'".'i", ,
