SENATE.
Washington, April 3.-The report of the
committee on elections on the credentials oi
Charles H. Bell, appointed by the governor
as senator from New Hampshire, were taken
up.
Mr.. Hoar argued in favor of admitting
Bell, say ing that there is an unbroken line
of precedents for so doing.
After an executive session the senate ad-
journed till Monday.
Debate on army appropriation bill was
continued.
Mr.. Knott spoke Of the great and histori-
cal importance Of the principle involved.
1t was great fundamental principle Of re-
publican liberty that the ballet box should
be protected from the slightest approach of
the military power, and that the voter shall
be left absolutely free in exercising at the
polls the highest prerogative of citizen.
He quoted the English statute Of George II,
for the removal Of troops from the place
where an election is to be held, and cited
Blackstone that it IL essential that elections
shall be absolutely free and therefore all
undue influences are illegal and are prohi-
bited. He had expected that such ques.
ton would have been discussed on the other
side with ealmness and dignity, but in
this he had been previously disap-
pointed, particularly in connection
with the speech Of Mr.. Frye. That speech
while it might nave been appropriate to
the small fry of his party at a cross roads
or village barroom, it was unjust to that
gentleman's genial and generous nature.
Mr.. Knott concluded his speech with a
statement of the bene6cent reforms that
would be effected when the democratic par
ty had captured the capitol, as he firmly
believed it to be in the plans Of providence
that that party and the people should 80
triumph.
He was followed on the republican side
by Mr.. Houk, who argued tiat it was abso.
iutely necessary for the protection of the
lives and political rights Of colorei and
white republicans of the south that the
authority Of the military to preserve peace
at the polls should be maintained. This
speech being by southern man, attracted
much attention, was frequently applauded
on the republican side, and jeered on the
democratic side.
Mr. Robeson followed.

10 THE EDITOR OF THE dFRALD:-
1t Is we'll known that even now nearly one.half of

the daytime. from eight A. NJ to six p. M. 1t takes
tion, and the men allowed two hours for dinner
each one taking his lunch with him and feed for his
horsc there Is only left seven hours for patrol
duty. Five men patrol avenue A, Second, Third,
Madison and Fifth avenues from Fifty-ninth street
to Eighty-txth street, where they nre more orna-
mental than useful, there 10 no fast or reckless
driving between the above streets and no duty re-
quirod that man on foot cannot do. Tho only
place this side OF the Harlem the squad now patrol
where they are actually necessary IN between 10th
street aua the Harlem on Sixth, Seventh and st.
Nicholas avenues. There four or Ave men AS
signed to this duty from Eghtyscvonth street sta
SIX Z. NJ, and out ot this time they only a tsw
minutes over six hours post. Tho rest of hho
time is spent In going and returning to tho station
and dinner; so tor two hours and half Ia the mid
die of the day the squad not the post.
Captain Steers also has mounted mon on the last
mentioned avenues who do regular precinct duty,
both night and day. ana are relieved regularly by
fresh men and horses. He could easily furnish q
few moro men TO take tho place OF the amounted
squad withdrawn from Westchestcr county or n no
has not enough mcn. his force be augni ened by
transfer from the Eighty seventh street squad.
Even now fully one-half of the runawaysa are stopped
by Captain Steers mon, the record will snow.
The reason for this Is that the most reckless people
are on the road from six to twelve y. M. Cominis-
sioncr Voorbis IL practical and his object in
sending the mounted men above the Harlem River,
where they are very much needed In not to deprive
