Responded to for the REGULAR army by
Gen. Sheridan, who was warmly cheered-
He said that it was only Il moment ago that
he had been notified that he was expected to
speak, and he must, therefore, resort to the
tactics of Nermont's distinguished Senator
when short of votes-that is, tlibuster-
Laughter But I'm sorry | haven't the
skill he has. In thinking over the matter |
am of opinion that every ahlc-bodied man in
the United States belongs TO the Army and
Navy when necessity requires it. We then
have about three million men. Our little
regular army doesn't count for much-it is
only the nucleus for an army. The history
of every country is the history of its army
and navy. Our own army and navy have
indicated by the last war what they could do
in any future war. | hope no war will
ever happen that will call out all the men the
country tdn call out. No such war
ever will come. The ocean is our fortifca-
ton. 1t would. take all the shipping of
Europe 10 Ibring over an army large enough
TO cope with us. To keep us out Of war we
must trust TO the great statesmen OF whom

FORTY-SIXT CONGRESS.
LAST SESSION..
ROUSE,

Washington, 1S.-Many seats were
vacant. The morning hour was
dispensed with and the House went
into committee on the military
academy bill. 1t approprietes 1922
GOO. 1t was read tor amendment.
Cepeer moved to strike out the
provision allowing any secretary Of
war to assign any army officer as pro
lessor OF lag at the academy. Their
had bsen s case on exhibition (Whlt
taker's) made by the officer IN charge,
IN the examination Of the coloreo
cadet at West Point, unworthy say
officer in the service. He had, instead
of looking cut for the rights OF the
persons injured, been public prose
cutor. Il this spirit we're to continue,
many people would prefer that the
institution should die. II was an
amusing spectacle to see government
ruled by caste. He cared not whether
a cadet had been the author CT his
own misfortune, an institution would
bear watching which would drive y
coed man b. his isolation and want
Of all human sympathy. to such
measures. He had merely wished to
express his indignation and now
withdrew tbs amendment.
The committee rose and reported
the bill, which passed as it came rom
he committee.
The House then went into com
mittee on the consular bill, which
appropriates 81 500 600. an in
crease Of $4,000 over ls5l year,
and Singleton spoke on it. 10
regard to the diplomatic portion
of the bill there bad been 40 charge
whatever made from the law Of last
year. In regard 70 the con.Ulsr e-r
vice the committee on syp50p:i4ti9ns
had adopted some change, which
had been proposed by the secretary Of
state comprising chiefly the transfer
of consulates from one class to an
other. He dWelt upon the impur
lance of the consul r service 10 ad'
vsncing the commercial interests o.
the country, but argued tina. the util'
ity was neutralized by laws against
Tree ships. The carrying trade OF the
country had almost disappeared under
restrictions which had heen placed
upon it by laws which said a mar
could not go to any country be
pleased and buy vessel ard get al
American register. He contended
that those laws should be amended
as they had proved very detrimental
to commerce.
OoDger referred TO the crest i'm.
portance OF extending the consular
ser 5ice, cut fidiculed the sm allness O.
salaries paid coDsuls. New markets
we're opened through the exerIions o
these ofictrs, and the commerce o
the country Improved, though ships
were not allowed to be bought il
England. The American people
could manufacture chips against the
world, aud they we're doing it to day,
Ifit were uCt Tor the continual ,brea
made 10 this House that people should
go and buy free ships, and thus en-
danger the establishment Of American
ship yards, ships could be msnuise
tured here cheaper and better thar
they were to day, and to-day they
were the finest ships in the world.
The committee rose, and the Houst
voted on the bill. Result, 40 yeas,

The consular and diplomatic ap-
preparation bill. now pending in the
House, contains a provision raising
the consulate at Apia, Samoan
Islands, from the seventh to the fifth
class, with an increase of salary from
1900 to $1,000 per aonum. This
change is recommended by the state
department TO msks the position more
desirable for men OF proper capacity
aud standing. This consulate is con-
sidered likely to become important to
our commercial interests at an early
day, aud there ia reason to believe the
present incumbent would already
have been displaced had there been
