From our Regular Correspondent
WASHINGTON, June Ton Saturday night
I telegraphed you that the exporttobacco
bill had passed the House. 1t went to the
Senate to-day. The bill was introduced In
the Senate by Senator Johnston, aud in the
House by General Joseph Il. Johnston. 1t
provides for the cancellation Of the export
tobacco bonds at the port OF departure in-
stead OF at the port OF destination, as now,
and relieves Virginia exporters Of a great
deal OF trouble and expense.
THIS UTE AGREEMENT PASSES THE HOUSE.
The bill to carry into effect the agreement
between Ouray and the other Ute chiefs
and Secretary Schurz, which passed the
Senate some time ago, passed the House to-
day. Mr.. Hayes has been very anxious for
promptly. Those who ought to know say
1t will avert an Indian war.
THE HOUSE HAS GOTTEN THROUGH WITH THE
APPROPRIATION BILLS.
The House has gotten through with the
appropriation bills, aud is waiting for the
Senate to dispose Of them. 1t will have
time to get through with q good deal OF
miscellaneous business before the Senate Is
ready to adjourn.
AN ELECTIoNIN OREGON.
There was q congressional election in
Oregon to-day, and the National Democratic
Committee was very certain Of the success
Of Whitaker (Democrat, the present in
cumbent.
THE KELLOGG CASE UP AGAIN.
Senator'S Herman and Call addressed the
Senate to-day in carefully. prepared and
very forcible speeches on the Kellogg case.
They took the position that the Packard
Legislature was not legal body and could
not, therefore, elect legal senator; that
Louisiana is entitled to be represented by a
senator OF her choice, and that no previous
action of the Senate should prevent this.
SENATOR JoHNsTON's SPEECH.
Senator Johnston followed Senator Call,
and made q capital speech on the Kellogg
case. He treated it as a lawyer, and came
to the conclusion that the committee was
right in declaring that Kellogg is not enti-
tied TO seat in the Senate. His speech was
not only full Of sound argument, but it pre-
sented most iorcibly the law OF the case.
Senator Johnston is a thorough lawyer, and
never treats any case before the Senate
from a sentimental standpoint.
| THIN HOSES TO-DAY.
Owing to the excitement outside vacant
seats in both houses were in large ma
jority to-day, as members cared more about
Chicago than they did about routine con.
pressional business. The Senate Appro.
priations Committee, OF which Senator
Witbers is member, were, however, hard
at work all day on the sundry civil bill
Tomorrow they will take up the general
deficiency bill.
