Mr.. Randall, (Penn.,0 chairman OF the
COMMITTEES ON Appropriations. defended the
diplomatic appropriation bill. The bill was
then considered by sections for amendment.
Mr.. Crittenden moved to strike out the APP
propristions for ministers To France. Eng
land, Russia, and Germany, as ne believed IL
would be more honorable for the country 20
abolish those offices than 20 degrade them.
The motion was rejected. Various amend
meDts Were Offered increasing the salaries
OF ministers, but they were all rejected, a ld
the first three sections were PASSED as r,a-
ported by the committee. An effort was
made To restore the mSaion 10 Greece. but AZ
failed. and the bill contains no approprla-
ton for that mission. At this point the
committee rose and the House al iouraed.
