The Vice-President laid before the Senate the
unfinished business, being the resolution for
the election of Senate officers. Mr. Dawes took
the floor and after a speech in which he de-
clared that the Republican Senators had not

regard to the rights of a minority, and that they
would return to the contest, he moved to &c
into executive session, and the motion was
agreed to without opposition.
In executive session the first matter disposed
of was the Chinese emigration treaty, which,
after three hours debate, was ratified without
amendment by a practically unanimous vote,
there being only two Senators recorded in
the negative. The Chinese commercial treaty
was then taken up. and very brief discussion
resulted in its ratification also, without amend
ment and substantially without opposition.
Proceeding with the calendar of treaties, the
Senate next ratified in succession the extrad1-
ton treaty with the United States of Colombia
the consular convention with Italy modifying
and defining the judicial powers of certain con-
salates; the convention with Morocco respecting
the taxation prerogatives of the Moorish gov
eminent and the treaty with Japan prescribing
