WASHINGTON, April 5-The Senate is
not in session to-day. The House met at
IL o'clock, and Immediately went into COM
mite of the Whole on the Army Bill, Mr..
Springer in the chair.
The pending question was upon the
amendment offered by Mr.. New, of Indiana,
declaring that the adoption of sections
in the bill should not interfere with the
Presidents power to send troops into O
State upon the call of the Governor or the
State LEGISLATURE.
Mr.. Reagan of Texas did not think the
proviso at all necessary, because
the sections proposed in the Army
Bill did not interfere with the Presidents s
constitutional power in the least to use
troops to repel inyasions, etc.
Mr.Conger offered an amendment to strike
out the Sixth Section from the bill, and he
made proposition that if the other side
would agree to that they would aid the
Democrats to repeal the sections of the re-
vised statutes complained OF. and he
thought that repeal and the Army Bill
conld be passed to-day.
Mr.. Sparks of Illinois said he did not pro-
pose TO speak on the amendment, but re-
ferred to certain parts which been made by
gentlemen on the other side.
Mr. Chittcnden made brief speech, fol
lowing Mr.. Sparks.
Mr. Lowe, of Alabama, gave notice of an
amendment to strike out the sixth section
of the bill, and to have it acted upon as an
Independent proposition. He then argued
in favor of separating it from the body of
the bill, and also made greenback speech.
MacIanc, OF Maryland, and Robeson, of
New Jersey, had discussion as to whether
the Supreme Court had decided that the
United States could preserve peace in the
States. The former contended it had so de-
Cided and the latter that it had not.
At 1890 the question was taken on New
amendment, and it was adopted.
