he had not received applause, but II did
concern the dignity and order of the SEN
ate. The spectators should not be allowed
to thunder as If they were In circus or
theatre.
Mr.. Howe of Wisconsin, suggested that
the senator from California (Mr. SargenD,
amend his motion 80 as to increase the po-
lice force in the galleries, and whoever
should be found applaudng should be re-
moved therefrom
Mr.. Sargent said 1t would be impossible
for the officers Of the senate to know who
appauded and who did not. The only
way to evadc this applause was by clean
ing at least that portion of the gallery from
which it comes Some time ago he gave
notice that he would move to have the gal
lerics cleared If the applause should be re-
peated lie now modified his motion SO as
to have the gallery occupied by men on
the right OF the chair cleared
The discussion on the matter of expul-
sion from the galleries became general,
Messrs. Upton, Stevenson, Thurman and
Bayard participating.
Thurman submitted as a substitute for
| Logans motion an order that the sergeant
alarms be directed TO place in the gallery
a sufficient police force to arrest any per-
son who may disturb the proceedings by
remarks of appreciation or disapprobation,
and report such arrests to the senate
Agreed to.
Mr.. Hamilton, resuming, spoke of the
recent events in louisiana and said they
were all part of the conspiracy to keep
Kellogg in office. He next read from the
despatch of Gen. Sheridan in reference to
declaring certain persons bandtt, and
have them tried by a military commission.
lie commented on this dispatch and said he
hoped military commissions were thing
of the past. 1t was one of those things
which would forever remain blot upon
the fair fame of American liberty. Had
it come to this, that the President
of the United States could issue
his orders to organize a state legis-
lature and Gen. Sheridan carry them out
Could nothing be done to arrest this mill
itary power? Was the senate to sit here
and hear military officer advise the pres
ident to declare set of men bandittis? If
that sentiment should be permitted, that
same president could march that same gen.
eral to the senate and house of representa-
tives and clear all senators and members
out at the point Of the bayonet. He
denied that people were assassinated
in New Orleans Kellogg, had not been as
sassinated, Casey had not, and why should
Gen. Sheridan be afraid ? In conclusion
he urged that peace be given to Louisiana
by allowing the people of the state to rule
over their own officers and once more there
would be peace throughout the land.
Mr.. Bayard then obtained the floor bu
yielded to Mr.. Sargent for a motion for al
executive session which was agreed to, anC
at five o'clock the senate proceeded to tn,
consideration of executive business and al
