WASHINGTON June 6.-Tbe Senate made good
progress with the Army Appropriation Bill to-day
After spending some time in a wrangle over the
order of business, this bill was taken up
and its provisions were briefly explained
by Senator Blaine. 1t appropriates about $780,
600. 600. being an increase of about a million
over the amount called for by the bill as it came
from the House. The largest single item OF in-
crease for the erection OF two new forts and army
stations, one 10 be established among the Black
Hills on the border of Wyoming and Dakota Terri
tories and the other on Milk River. in Montana.
The cost of these two military posts is S25O,OOO
The Senate sustained its own Committee on Ap-
proprations in maintaining the army at its present
strength of 25,O00 enlisted men, and rs amended
the bill embraces very much the same appropria-
tons as the bills OF the last two years. The twen-
ty-six sections which provide for reducing and
reorganizing the army and rearranging the pay OF
officers and men were stricken ont upon
the recommendation of the committee, after very
short debate As a substitute for all these sections
an amendment reported by General Burnside. from
the Military Committee providing for commission,
consisting OF two Senators, three Representatives
and three army officers, whose duty 1t shall be TO
nouire into the present organization of the army
and recommend changes and reforms, wasagreed to.
The section of the bill providing for the transfer
of tue Indian Bureau to the War Department was
briefly discussed just before adjournment this after
noon.
The drift of sentiment among Senators tonight
is that this subject will he referred to commission
similar to that provided for in the previous section
of the BILL Many Senators who are really
in favor of the transfer Of the Indian
Bureau from the Interior to the War Department,
are opposed to such hasty action as will be neces-
sary If this section is agreed TO during the present
session of Congress. The bill discussed in the
House OF Representatives only half an hour, aud
while no limit has been placed upon the debate IN

successive Legislatures and Cover
nors Of California and by petitions
of tens of thousands of laboring
men, and called attention to the
resolutions of both parties calling
for action to mitigate or suppress
the acknowledged evils growing
out of Mengolian immigration. He
alluded to the threatened labor ri
OTIS in San Franclsco and the meas.
ures which the law-abiding COM
munity have been forced to take to
protect Cinnamon, and asked why,
II American labor had been pro-
tected by tariff legislation against
the cheap labor of foreign coun-
tries, it would not also be proper
to protect white labor in California
against any increase of the exist
ing Mongolian competition.
Page also alluded to the fact that
the Chinese, during the twenty
eight years since California was
settled, had not assimilated with
our people; whereupon DIR. Loring
ina mediately remarked that No con-
sidered this the most important
consideration that had been pre-
ssnted in favor of restricting Chi
nese immigration. He (Lori'ng) re-
called two debates on the Chinese
question-one in the National Re-
publican Convention and the other
in the Connecticut State Conven-
ton some years ago, in both of
which he, in common with most
Eastern people, had been captivat.
ed by eloquent speeches to the
effect that our country should be
open as an asylum for the poor
and oppressed of all coun-
tries. These orators and he himself
had formed their opinions upon
analogies dra wn from the effect of
Irish and other European immi-
grafton in Eastern States, which,
at first, had caused labor difficult
ties, but eventually had been pro-
ductivei of great benefits. In nu-
merons points of view, however, IL
it should be shown that the Chi.
nese do not assimilate with the So
cial and domestic system of our
States and people, he would OPP
pose Chinese immigration. He
would oppose it not merely because
| it intsrferes with white labor, but
because Mongolians do rot become
citizens and do not furnish nssimi.
lating material.
