Senate. Window accordingly introduced
the bill which is the marshals appropria-
ton bill vetoed to-day minus the political
clause.
Senator Houston suggested if it was
Windows desire to fasten the responsible
ity for adjournment without making ap-
preparation upon the Democrats, the
object would be attained as we'll by vote on
the adjournment resolution if Senator
Window would withdraw his objection to
its consideration.
Senator Windom-'I would be very
glad to yield to that proposition. have
too much confidence in my Democratic
friends here TO suppose they would refuse
to make appropriations, but If we should
act on that proposition and you pass it, as
OF course you will. because you do not
propose to deny to this important branch
OF government the appropriations, which
the President has just told us are so iudis-
pensable, when you had passed it and
sent it to the House the House could not
pass it in time" Laughter.
Senator Salisbury objected to the pres
ent consideration of the bill, but soon after
| withdrew his objection.
The bill was read twice, aud the question
being on its third reading Senator Eaton
moved to amend by adding the political
clauses of the vetoed marshals appropria-
ton bill, making the bill exactly the same
as the one vetoed to day.
Senator Windom-"It will be under
stood that this is precisely as If the Senate
should refuse to pass the BILL"

ocratic side.)
