on the 10Th Of May last. and a reward OF 800
was offered for the capture " the culprit. The

The Omnibus of Jobs.

The Senate loaded down the Sundry Civil
bill, which is q sort of legislative omnibus
constructed to carry unsavory jobs at the
close Of every session, with between four
and five millions of extras. two-thrds of
which are personal. and could not have been
carried Independently on their merits. But
with committees Of conference too ready to
compromise, and six men virtually holding
the power of legislation ia their hands,
almost anything IA possible in the last
hours, when vcuality is most audacious and
determined.
II would Toe advisable either to require the
appropriations to Ice voted absolutely with

to give the Executive power, as In this

and to reject another part. rs a protection
for the public interest against log rolling
and corruption. More than twelve millions
Of dollars have been appropriated at this
session by combinations, which are wholly
without excuse in the present condition Of
the finances and of suffering industry
While the Conference Committee on the
Sundry Civil bill was trying to patch up n COM

WAS discovered early in the day that an evening
session WAS unavoidable. and both branches
accepted the situation. During tho afternoon
the Senate passed the House bill forbidding
attorneys or agents to take larger fee in any
pension case than 40. although Mr.. CoNKLiNG
expressed a fear that in practice this restriction
would work the pensioners more harm than
good. The other bills passed were mostly OF
local or personal interest.
In the House the afternoon opened with an
unpleasant personal incident. Mr.. PouND Of
Wisconsin described some previous remarks OF
Mr.. EpLN Of Illinois ~ outrageous. and Mr..
