WASHINGTON, January 20, 1881.

WARRINGTON, Janutry e, 1901.
This has been . comparatively busy
week In both Houses Of the National
Congress, and while 1t 10 believed an ex-
ira session cannot be avoided, Its work
will be considerably lightsned u Congress
shall continue at this rate during the few
remaining days Of the session. The
House passed the three per cent. refund
ing bill. and the navy appropriation bill.
Tho Senate passed q brace Of %appropria-
ton bills; awarded $780, 900 to Ben.
Holiday. who claimed half a million;
settled the Kellogg case; made hasty ad-
verse disposal Of Senator McDonald's
resolution to appoint q regular commit
tee to consider the rights OF woman; de-
bated the Indian severalty bill; and. In
executive session. appointed a commit
tee to investigate the manner In which
the Chinese Treaty was made public.
Since the invention OF wires and cables,
the enterprise Of the press has left the
old. fashioned diplomatist In the lurch.
and now, when N grave. reverend and
somewhat su%prranuated House OF Lords
takes mp for discussion. in secrecy. this
long longed.for treaty. they are shocked
TO know that Il has been published In
the papers. Alas! what on affront to ell
the venerable traditions OF diplomacy.
Senator Edmunds, OF Vermont. was
decidedly angry. and be moved that o
committee be appointed to investigate
the means by which the treaty became
public. There were only four corre-
spondents who obtained copies OF the
document. and It is fair to presume that
they did not steal what could be oh.
tanned for the asking thereof. As, also,
each Of the correspondents aforesaid are
gentlemen, II Is hardly probable that
they will reveal the sources from which
thew derived their information. even
though, as Senator Edmsnds suggested
today, they should be locked up "be-
tween four cold walls for three. six or
nine months, or nine years." until they
told what they had NO business to tell.
The Last occasion on which the Senate
undertook to Hnd out who gave away"
its secret proceedings was when the New
York Tribune published the Washington
Treaty. The Investigation was, a. might
have been expected. fruitless. II the
Committee on Privileges and Elections
has any disposition to inquire into an
cient history. Il might summon Senator
Edmunds and ask him II his copy OF the
Washington Treaty bore any marks Of
having passed through the telegraph
Office between the time that hs first
placed Il on his desk at homo and when
be looked st 1t again several weeks later.
The unterriHsd rgitators In favor Of

ton, Misses Anthony. Cousins and

yention In Lincoln Hall and, on ysstsr-
day, they sat in the Senate gallery and
saw disaster sverwhelm the little rssolu-
ton offered BY the freshly married Sen.
ator Mcdonald In their favor. No one
can listen to Miss Anthony or Mrs.
Stanton without being impressed with
The ability and sapability Of these ladies;
but the efforts Of the younger and
