SENATE..

WASHINGTON, June 6.-During the
morning hour, Mr.. voorhees, spoke in favor
| of early consideration Of the bill 10 repeal
the spcci8 resumption act, and said the
Senate might a. well look this matter in
the face, and il it was not going to report
the act, let ii say 50 by its vote. No great
er question had ever been before the Amer
lean Congress, and he would take every OPP
portunitv now until the close of the se.-
sion, until it had Deen disposed Of. The
Senate E1j time % pass ali -Jrts Of b;ll- %
b-:d.C riyG.ef- III no tine to meet Lae
question whicr involved more peril and
distress than had ever been produced by
war and pestilence. He thought the bill
could be disposed OF in sixty minutes.
At the expiration Of the morning hour,
and, alter a long discussion, the Senate
yeas 81 nays -, took up the army appro-
priation bill.
Mr.. BLAINE, in charge Of the bill, said
the total amount appropriated by the bill
a. ii came 10 the Senate from the House
was s25.32y, ,61l, the Senate Committee on
Appropriations adding Ssjg,9li, making a
total OF S2G, lS9,5s5. The principal item
which the Senate Committee added-S3Ol,-
2S1-was for the pay OF the army, owing to
the fact that the Senate Committee on APP
propriations had not agreed 10 the House
clause cutting down the army to 10000
men. Another was Sl50,0O0 Tor build
ing military post and garrison at the
foot Of the hills near the Black Hills, in
either Wyoming or Dakotah. The total es-
innate OF the War Department for sup
port OF the army during the year were
s3l ,292 900. He had no doubt the result
of this bill would be that consid cradle def
cheney must be provided for next year, a.
there had been this year.
BY unanimous consent the five minute
rule was here applied to all the amend
rnents except that in regard to the transfer
Of the Indian Bureau and forbidding the
Use OF the army as posse commutatus.
Mr.. WALLACE submitted an amend
ment to strike out Of the House bill the
clause intending to permanently fix the
number 0: enlisted men in the army. Agreed
10.
After debate, toe amendment of the
Committee on Appropriations, increasing
the army to 25.ooo, was agreed to-yeas 80
nays 10.
Pending the discussion on the army bill,
Mr.. Thurman, from the Committee on the
Judiciary, reported a bill creating board
to be known as the Pacific Railroad Com
mission. Pl,eed on the calendar
Mr. MCDONALD gave notice that he
would submit substitute for the bill of
Mr.. Thurman when it should be con-
sidered. Ordered that the substitute be
printed.
Consideration Of the army appropriation
bill was then resumed and the amendmen:
