HOUSE.

WASHINGTON, D. c., June g.
On motion of Mr. Curtin, of Penn
sylvania, the bill was passed increas>
ing to $40 per month the pension of
any person who in the late war lost
arm, leg, hand or foot, or received
disabilities equal thereto.
The House then, Ills, went into
committee of whole, Mr.. G. Upde-
graft, of Iowa, IN the chair, and re,
sumed the consideration of the gen
eral deficiency appropriation bill.
At $40 the consideration of the
bill was completed, and the commits
tee rose and reported it back to the
House.
Motions to strike out the appro-
priations for the payment of amounts
due for land granted railroads
for any transportation and for the
bureaus in the Navy Department,
were lost.
A motion to strike out the clause
appropriating $112,600 for the pay
ment of special deputy marshals at
Congressional elections in 1881 and
pri.r years, was lost.
In speaking to this proposition
MIR. Cox, of New York, said mas.
much as the men selected for these
positions at our elections performed
their work, and are not in any sens,
responsible for the law under which
they acted, and as the money is thei
due, We desire to say that in voting
for this proposition we did not yielc
our well considered judgment as t.
the invalidity of the federal law.
The bill then passed; yeas 116
nays 81.
The House Immediately thereafte
went into committee of the whole OF
the legislative, executive and judicia
appropriation bill.
In explaining the bill, MIR. Can
non, of Illinois, said the bill providet
for an increase In the number of EN-
pIoyes in the pension Office at an ex
pense of $4,000, but outside o
that it appropriated only $220,O0'
more than the bill for the curren
year. If this increase of force in tn
pension Office were agreed to during
the next four Years. there would b
required S425, 100000 to pay pen
sions, but it was better to expend tn
surplus revenue in that manner thai
to have it remain in the treasury,
standing temptation to those VIII
desired to promote schemes, at tn
cost of the government. The com
mittee then rose and adjourned.

Senator Hawley reported from the
military committee joint resolution
appropriat .ng $4,000, or so much
thereof as may be needed, to furnish

utterances ON the colossal abuses of the

During the meeting it became known
that Judge b. w. Perkins was in the
