WASHINGTON LETTER.
WAsHISGTOS, ID. c., April 81, Il

W ASHINGTON, -. u, Apfll Il, loco.
The two Houses of Congress have been
in wranrlcs for the past week over vari-
ous questions. The Senate is listening
to speeches about the Geneva award, or
what remains Of it-Spme ten million dol
lars. Senators Blaine, Carpenter, Thur,
nan, Jones of Florida, and Edmunds
have spokcn, and Eaton and others will
speak. Senator Conlling has not so FIR
got beyond asking the various speakers
questions. but is said to contemplate ii
speech on the subject. This senator has
been nothing but an animated intelroga-
ton point, so far during the session.
The particular cause Of delay in the
House now is the Immediate Deficiency
bill, or, rather. Senate amendments to it.
The radical minority forced the wasting
of yesterday On that bill by pa. inentary
| tactics.
Political history is being made rapidly
this month. In the Democratic party yes
terday WAS day of Importance, being
| that of the New York State Democratic
Convention. The delegates selected Il c
| unequi vocal; for Til,leu, but are at the
same time not men who will pursue a
| rIia,itom. fiat any time the nomination
OF rilden at Cincinnati should appear to
| them to be ineXpcdient they are Of the
class Of men who will know what to do,
| and when to act, and will have the cour-
are to act. Ofthe body OF men who met
at the same time and in the same city as
the Democratic Convention, and called
themselves Democrats, it can only be SAID
that they have made a mistJ ke as to the
Lame to which they are entitled. Such
, of them as have any honest Democratic
sentiments will be found acting inside
the party this fall. The others will bene-
tit the party by leaving il.
Among Republicans everything points
to Grant as the candidate. Sherman has
Ohio, and, probably, scattering votes III
Tie south. His friends claim 200 votes
at the Chicago Convention on the first
ballot. They would gladly compromist
en- fifty. Blaine has Maine, Iowa, Kan
