TBY TELEGRAPH TO THE TRIBUNEI
WASHINGTON, Dec. 21.-There is said to have
been lively debate and struggle in the Senate in
executive session this afternoon over the coufirma-
ton of Judge Woods as Justice of the Supreme
Bench. Several speeches were made, but large
part of the time spent in filibusterng, aud the
session finally came to an end by the departure of
several Democrats, leaving the body without a
quorum. Judge Woods will be confirmed whenever
q quorum be obtained in executive session to
vote upon the nomination. Senators Brown. Hill,
of Georgia, and Bayard spoke in favor of confirma-
tion, and voted with the Republicans. Senator
Jonas, Call, Vance, Salisbury Williams and Eaton
made speeches in opposition.
II was said by Mr.. Jonas that Judge Woods was not
a Southern man. In reply Mr.. Jonas was asked
where he was born. when he was forced to admit
that Illinois was his native State. He SAID also
that the Louisiana lawyers were not favorable to
the appointment but Senator Edmunds convinced
him that be mistaken, as the approval of all
the Louisiana bar except Mr. Jonas was on file with
the Judiciary Committee.
Mr.. Jonas alluded to the decision of Judge Woods
in the Grant Parish trials, asserting that he had
made partisan decision and had sent honorable,
worthy citizens 30 JAIL The vote upon the confrma-
ton was finally carried, but motion to reconsider
made Imme liately. Some one moved to lay
this motion on the table and attempt to vote
upon this was defeated by the departure Of several
of the Democrats

BREEZY TINE IN THE HOCsE-AN IRRELEVANT
| DIsCUssIoN-THE BILL TO GO OVER.
fBY TELEGRAPH To THE TRIBUNEl
| WASHINGTON, Dec 81. When Mr.. Fernando
Wood moved to-day that the House 20 into Com
mItee of the Whole ON the Refundng bill, and that
general debate should be limited to one hour, he let
loose small tempest The Greenbackers and those
Democrats who want 10 pay off the bonds immedi-
| ately and oppose anyissue of new bonds, set up
cry for free speech and demanded more time. Mr..
keey's friends said that he had a speech prepared
IN favor of his own proposition which he wished to
deliver. and that he was absent through illness.
After wrangle 1t was finally agreed that the de-
bate should proceed for the time being without
limit.
Mr. Gillette delivered written but, fortunately,
short speech Mr. Randall took the floor. after a
few remarks BY Mr.. Mills, of Texas. and made a
speech in opposition TO some features of the bill re-
ported. After Mr. Randall had finished, Mr. Weaver
took the floor, and from that time very little was
said about the merits or dement's of the Refunding
bill. MIR. Weaver's speech arraignment OF
the Democratic party for its Inconsistencies the
financial question. His criticisms upon Democratic
Inconsistency very diverting to the Republic
cans. although they, too, came in for
share of the criticism. Several Democrats
attempted to reply, and Mr.. Weaver was
often interrupted From the Democratic
side too came frequent calls for the regular
ORDER" but Mr.. Weaver was allowed to proceed.
In reply to Mr. Bland. of Missouri, who had insin-
uated that Mr.. Weaver had sold out to the Republi
cans. that gentleman very severe. He described
the Democratic forgery" of letter purporting to
have been written by him and which circulated
by the Democratic Committee toward the close of
the campaign. That forgery he said, he had sub
mited 10 competent experts who had declared it to
ko tI,o
" do not believe" said Mr. Weaver, that Gen
eral Garfield wrote both these letters. If did l
could not support his Administrations Mr.. Weaver
appeared to know more about the Texas platform
than did Mr. Reagan, who attempted to correct
some of his statements. He cornered Mr.. Reagan |
as he later did Mr.. Bland, VINO he de- |
clared had made canvass for Congress the |
GTeenback platform.
Mr.. Weaver said that if twenty-five men in the |
House would stand with him they could prevent |
any action on the Refunding bill before the holi-
days. 1t appeared from the proceedings oday that |
there are fully twenty-five members who are as !
srongiyi opposed 10 the immediate passage of the |
bill as is Mr.. Weaver himself
