THE PROCEEDINGS OF YESTERDAY
Mr. Harris. OF Tennessee, In Refer
ehce 10 an Article I'm the lnterna-
tiOn"i Review, Denies That
tennessee has Repudiated
seven Millions OF Her
Debt-Mr. Dawes ON
the Deadlock.

Washington, April lS.-The vice.president
laid before the senate the unfinished business,
being the resolution for the election Of
officers.
Mr.. Harris referred to the article recently
quoted by Mr.. Mshone from the Information.
al Review, to the effect that the state of
Tennessee had repudiated seven millions of
her debt. and asserted that there was no
truth in the ststement. Tennessee had at
no time repudiated one penny of her debt.
1t had been stated that Mr.. Porter, OF
the census bureau. had been the
author OF the article, that giving il a semi
Official Character Mr.. Porter had indeed
been the author, but had in a communication
to him (Harris) denied that it was an official
statement of the debt of Tennessee. He
corrected various misstatements in the article

by unanimous consent Mr.. Johnston was
permitted to .otfer resolution which was
adopted, calling on the attorney general fol

Y. Lancaster, special agent of the treasury
department. touching the western judicial
district of Virginia
Some time was consumed in roll calls on
various motions.
Mr.. Dawes said that he was conscious tina,
public business had been much obstructed
by the pendency of the resolution which he
had offered, but attributed that obstruction
to the action Of the minority in resortng to
every motion known to parliamentary law to
defeat that resolution. This was struggle
whether it was the senate or a minority OF
the senate which was to control public
business. He did not care u copper whether
one officer or another was in office, bu
he desired to have Il
settled before the country, whether this was
a government of the msjority or not.
After discussion, during which no new
points were discovered, thes senate ad-

tne present enormous consumption of cotton
by mills will still further increase.
Regarding the outlook of the coming crop.
reports say planting is about fifteen dsys
later than last year. In some regions opera.
tlons are fullya month late. Fertilizers are
more used than heretofore. notably so in The
