THE DEBATE ON TIMBER LANDS.

THE SENATE GROWS VERY wARM-MR BLAINEs
VIGOROUS FIGHT FOR HIS AMENDMENT.
icy TELEGRAPH TO THE TRIBUNE.l
WASHINGTON, March 19.-A very brisk debate
sprang up in the Senate to-day on the old question
of the collection of stumpage tax on wood and
timber cut on the public lands. The small De-
fciency Bill was the subject of considera-
ton, and Mr.. Blane's amendment pro-
viding that the Government shall not expend
money to force the collection of taxes on
wood and lumber used by actual settlers taken from
Government lands which have not been surveyed
or offered for sale was the cause of hot words.
1t was the old debate the policy OF the Secre-
tary of the Interior and at times it was very lively
and severe Mcssrs. Dawes, Hear, Christiancy,
Beck, Herman and Ingalls, spoke against the amend
ment and Messrs Blaine, Sargent, Teller, Eustis
and Mcmillan in favor of it. Mr.. Eustis made his
first speech in the Senate and spoke strongly.
In the early part of the debate nothing new was
sald, except in the angry contest between Mr. Sar-
gent and Mr.. Dawes, in which apologies were de-
manded by both and given by neither. Mr. Dawes
by way of offset, accused the people in the West of
being thieves and depredators; and Mr.. Sargent
accused the people of Massachusetts, of stealing
Plymouth Rock
Later in the day very fierce conflict arose
between Mr.. Blaine on the side, and Messrs.
Hoar, Dawes ingalls, and Matthews on the other,
which lasted until nearly 6 O'clock. Mr.. Blaine sue
ceeded in carrying of the honOrs, but his manner
was most decidedly unsenat0rial. He Interrupted
Senators without their consent, and he referred to
them repeatedly by name but by his dash, and his
readiness and his loud voice he held the opponents
Of the amendment for time nj BAY then drove
them to the defensive. and finally TO the retreat.
His manners more fitted for the floor OF the
House than the Senate, and many of the old mem
bersregretted that the Vice-Presdent did not check
the dashng Senator in his frequent violations Of
senatorial uSages.
No vote was taken on the amendment, but as the
case stands the chances strongly In favor OF its
adoption.

tary Sherman gave his views to Senate COM
