Senator Jones, Nevada Chaffee and John
ston, who would have voted in the affirmative.
were paired with Allison, Thurman and Nc
Creary. who would have voted in the negative,
Senator Edmunds raised the point of order
that under the goth rule the amendment could
not be considered because it proposed general
legislation to general appropriation bill
Lengthy debate ensued upon this point of
oder.
Senator Conkling argued that this was legis-
lation entirely proper but on an amendment to
aa appropriation bill to repeal test oaths and
all laws by which piracy on the ballot box NAV
be prevented would be general legislation and
could not be attached to an appropriation
bill
Senator Beck said the post route bill of last
session failed to become law on account of
this Brazilian mail subsidy being on it. Now
the House had sent to the Senate bill simply
making an appropriation for post office pur-
poses and the Senate proposed to load it down
with this Brazilian subsidy.
Senator Maxey said the, House refused to
consider the post route bill of last session, not
on account of the Brazilian subsidy bill but on
account Of an amendment allowing foreign
books free through the mails, the house regard
ing that as revenue measure.
Senator Bayard argued that this was scheme
to further commercial enterprises.
After some further debase, the question be-
ing upon the point of order raised by Edmunds
because it proposed general legislation the SEN
ate, by avo5e of yeas 80, nays &C. decided that
it could be considered.
Senator Eaton submitted an amendment to
reduce the subsidy from S2G0'OCO per annum
to 300, GOO. Rejected, yeas Is, nays 20.
THE GENEVA AWARD

direction of the majority of the committee on
Judiciary, reported with amendment House

commissioners of the Alabama claims, and for

| Of the Geneva award Placed on the calendar.
In submitting the report Senator Edmunds
SAID he did SO as the organ of the committee.
but he felt no further responsibility personally
IN regard to It, as he was opposed to the bill as
it stood.
THE SUBSIDY AGAIN.
Senator Eaton submitted an amendment to
the Brazilian subsidy amendment so as to pro.
vide that the contract for such service shall he
for four years instead Of ten years, as proposed
by the committee.
Senator Bailey argued that this was bill
for the benefit of John Roach. 1t was we'll nm.
| dcrstood that there was no other man in the
country who could take the contract in ac
| cordance with the bill. Roach was now unde,

more had already established trade with Rio,
and had twenty or thirty vessels now Running.
The effect of this bill would be to divert tho
Rio trade from Baltimore to New York.
Senator Conkling said there had been some
thing said about vlolstion of contract and
what should be done then. He was not one to
propose compromises, but why not amend the
bill so as to provide that the service shall be
performed by a Chinese company, and then
Congress could end tho contract whenever it
should choose to do So
Senator Bailey said ne would, at tho proper
time, submit an amendment providing that
should the contract upon one line. fail that
upon the other line should be forfeited.
Senator Blaine said the United States steam
or Tennessee was recently on cruise of thirty
four months. The government paid for that
cruise two and half; millions. Congress at
this very session bad appropriated thousands
of dollars for the South Atlantic squadron to
protect commerce which does not exist
Senator Herman, in. reply to Blaine, said !:
Suppose the cruise of the Tennessee did cost
why money should be 3squandered on private
parties? Nothing but loss to the government
and scandal had come out Of these subsidy
bills.
The amendment Of Mr.. Eaton that the con-
tract shall run four years instead of ten, as
proposed by the committee, was rejected, yeas
81, nays 80.
Senator Bailey then moved to limit the con-
tract to five years instead of ten, and said the
bill of last year proposed that the contract
should run five years. Why, in the time
elapsed since, had the friends put it up to ten
years.
Senator Beck said at the last session of Con-
gress he said all he could against this subsidy.
He knew there was naajority of the Senate in
favor of it, and therefore there was no use in
his taking up time to oppose it.
Senator Bayard expressed the opinion that
there was danger in a scheme of this kind, not
only to our government. bnt to the morals of
our people.
