meeting Of the Freedmen's Aid Society
the Secretary, Mrs. E. d. Cheney, repor-
ted the condition of things to be most
favorable in South Carolina where the
public school system recognized the
equality of whites and blacks. North

Mr.. Howe moved to proceed to the
election of standing committees. Agreed

list of the standing committees deter
mined upon by the Republican caucus.
Mr.. Summer asked that his name be
erased from the Craftsmanship of the
Committee on Privileges and Elections.
Agreed to. saa-css = asE slsa -;
A long and warm debate followed,
Schurz championing Sumner, Howe TAX
ing the lead for the change and most of
the Senators joining in the discussion.
MIR. Schurz urged the Senate not to
yield to executive dictation. There were
rumors abroad already, and there was too
underground TO believe them, that in the
change proposed the President had taken
a propelling power which was rather
stronger than had heretofore been deemed
compatible with the dignity of that office.
Twas perhaps time for the Republican
party to consider whether they were ready
to sacrifice their cause to the whims of
one man.
Mr.. Edmunds said he, too, desired in
quiry as to whether the President of the
United States and the Republican party
were ready to sacrifice their sense of duty
to the whims of one man, whether he
came from New England, Missouri, or
anywhere else.
Mr.. Howe stated that Mr.. Sumner had
refused to hold personal intercourse with
the Secretary of State, and held none with
the President.
Mr.. Wilson in the course of his speech,
referring to this point, exclaimed, ''Great
God, was ever such farce played before
the American peoplel"

Finally the subject was informally laid
aside and the majority of the Committee

report with the testimony accompanying.
Mr.. Bayard, on behalf of himself and
Blair, the minority of the Committee, de-
sired to present their views He said the
action of the majority in making this re-
port had taken the minority by surprise.
They had not expected in view of the in
vestigation contemplated that a report
in reference TO North Carolina alone
would be made. The minority on no
tice of only "a hours had prepared their
views in regard to the testimony taken,
but most of it was incomplete and ex
parte. There were witnesses in the city
whose testimony had not yet been taken,
which was important to be received to
correct the partizan representations which
had been made.
Mr.. Scott said it was for the Senate to
say whether any further witnesses should
be examined.
Both reports, with the accompanying
testimony, were then ordered to be
printed.
The Senate then resumed the question
Of the standing committees.
