CONGRESSIONAL PROCEEDINGS,

The board of trade of Chicago favors the
Lowell bankruptcy bill.
Petitions keep coming to have pensions to
one-legged and one armed soldiers increased
In the senate several new bills introduced.
Pendleton made speech on civil service.
and had something to say about the appropri-
alton bills for the present year. Allison re-
Piled and reminded Pendleton that these Cd.
Pfopriations were recommended by the men,
bers OF both parties in the committees. The
democrats were equally responsible with the
republicans for the increase of the pension
roll, and the record in the river and harbor
oil was that % democratic senators voted for
in and only 3 against it: while 10 republicans
voted for it and 10 against it.
Senator Sherman said he did not Object 70
his colleagues manner Of advocating his bill.
because he supposed it was designed to pur.
suade ms democratic Associates to support the
cause Of civil service reform. He hoped the
effort to convert them would be successful
Dut ne feared his colleague would find this
like all other reforms, must be made if made
al all, by the republican party. 1t was mis-
take to say the result Of the election in Ohio
was due tc desire to rebuke the republican
party IN congress for its extravagant appro-
prlations. The only appropriations he heard
critlclSed In Ohio was the one for the i'm
Provement of the Mississippi, and that was
objected to largely because the people of that
state were opposed ta the leyee plan control
ing the river The real cause of the defeat in
Ohio was the demand of part of the people
there for free whisky and no Sunday, As to
the pending bill, Sherman agreed with his
colleague. The civil service ought to be re-
formed. The present plan of appointment, in
most OF the departments was wrong, and
ought to be corrected. The term of minor
Offices ought to be fixed by law In reference
to the appointments by senators and members.
II was not only demoralizing, but humiliatine
for change.
