WASHINGTON, March 20.-Strange to say,

lace to see which can first assure the coun-
Try that 10 general legislation is intended.
At the caucus of Republicans it was re-
,olyed that Congress should send every out
hde bill and resolution TO committee, to

and Mr.. Edmunds was selected to present
The resolution in the Senate. When it was
accordingly introduced, some half dozen
Senators at once sprans to their feet with
objections. Mr.. Salisbury was recognized
and objected to present consideration
This throws the matter over one day, under

ing Ben. Butler appears tor Cameron and
he is making desperate effort to give Mrs.
Oliver bad character, and is succeeding to
a disgusting extent. The evidence is grad

Simon took up with very bad character.
1t 10 well to state that his defense i'll this
case was worked up by the notorious Ben
son, as an officer Of the Secret Service Of the
Treasury. When that individual was
caught in blackmaiiing operation lately,
the Camerons kept him in the service OF
the Government in spite OF the protest
