Another Chinese Bill.
THE SENATE.
Neither for nor Against the Chine .e
HiIl.

WAsurN.ToN. II. C., April 5.-In the Sen
ate at the expiration OF the morning bus
mess, Mr.. Farley moved to take up the
vetoed bill. Mr.. Hoar objected, and made
the point that the motion was out OF
order He said that when the Senate ad-
journcd. yesterday. Ingalls, was in the
midst of speech, and he maintained that
Ingalls, was now entitled to the floor.
Mr. Bayard insisted that the proper Con-
StitutiOnai business for the Senate TO take
up first was the vetoed hill. The Repub
Leans favored the referring OF the bill
to the Foreign Relations Committee rs they
did not desire to take vote on il, while
the Democrats wanted vote. The Repub-
liCanS who voted for the vetoed bill, or some
OF them at least, did not seem to desire to
vote again on this measure They did not
care to vote against the bill, nor did they
want to vote apparently against the Prc>i-
dents views.
Sherman said there was no need OF aSy
haste in considering the Chinese bill, and
he thought the Senate should go on with
the regular business. He intended to sub
nit motion to refer the Chinese bill to
the Foreign Relations committee, and he
believed that the committee could report a
bill that would meet the views OF the peo-
pie and the President.

Si,eciai Dispatch to the Register.
WASmNCrpN, April 5.-Blackburn created
a real sensation in the House. to-day, by
charging that system OF blarkmail exist
ell in the Quarterma>ter and Commissary
Departments. The question was in trans
lrring certain claims from these depart
mentS TO the Court OF Claims, and when
Blackburn rnse he intimated. in plain
terms, that practices existed which no hon
est man could defend, and that he had the
evidence in hi> desk To. sUbStantiate the
charges.
un being asked to make his charge more
distinct. he said that he had evidence to
prove that clerks in these departments had
been charging per cent. for all the claims
they passed, and produced and read one OF
the receipts given by such clerks. and guar
anteed that il an investigation was ordered,
it twould demonstrate even more scandulous
transactions than hc had referred.
Blackburn was evidently we'll supplied
with facts, and his charges were broad and
sweeping. Reed attempted to break the

favored hunting them down, and said that

ble than the C0urt Of claims. before which.
in sing'c ease. the government lost $296.-
OyU
This brought on a general discussion OF
the claims question, in which Bragg, Of
Wisconsin. humorouSly characterized the
the rebel claims as bantling Of Republi-
can birth. which WAS fei and foStered as
long as they remained in power and when
they went out was sent over 10 the Demo-
cratic household. whereupon the whole
Republican party cried, mad dog.

and Reed, in which the latter lost his tenn

PARKERsBURG, April IA singular and
fatal accident occurred at the west end OF

but when the train reached the junction,
about 100 yards west OF the bridge he in
formed the conductor of the Marietta train

had struck something near the bridge and
requested him TO stop his train there and
make a search. which was done. and the
mangled remains of DR.. Frame was found.
One leg was severed near the hip Joint, his
side badly crushed and wound in his
head which was alone sufficient to cause
his death The remains were brought to

sent To the Senate, to-day, the report Of
Secretary of State. FrelinghuySen. relating
to American citizens imprisoned in Ire

act for the better protection of persons and
property in Ireland. the act under which
the arrests complained OF were made, being
found in the Department OF State here,
at the time OF its passage the
26th of May last, the then Secre-
tary of State instructed Lowell TO
to obtain and forward an authentic copy OF
it at his earliest convenience. Lowell re
piled To this instruction on the llth OF
June last, but in the meanwhile the de-
rartn nent seems To have obtained copy OF
the act. rs the Secretary of State instructed
Lowell as follows on the End of June last:
Whatever the necessity may be in the
estimation of Her Majesty for the existence
and enforcement in Ireland OF the ex-
ceptionable legislative measures recently
enacted in respect to that country, this
government cannot view with unconcern

WASHINGTON, April 5.-The Republican
Leaders who drafted, fathered and engineer
ed the anti-ChineSe bill through, don't
seem anxious to lock horns with the Presi-
dent on his veto. and in the Senate, to-day
sherman moved to refer the whole matter
10 the Committee on Foreign Affairs,
whom, he said, would prepare bill which
would meet the views both OF the President
and the people.
Just exactly how this is to be done, does
not yet appear. There is good deal of
general talk, thatif the period Of suspeu-
sion had been reduced to ten years,
the President would have signed the
bill. but there is nothing in his message
nor in any OF his public utterances
TO Justify such an assertion. Upon the
contrary, he has, apparently, planted him
self on the broad ground taken by Judge
Taylor in his speech against the bill, that
it was unwise impolitic and against the
whole theory and practice OF our govern
ment to exclude any class OF immigrants
and these reasons would apply with equal
force to any other measure, limiting the
time 10 ten or even five year.
The Republicans will, howe ever, struggle
desperately to get another bill passed in
order to soften the blow, and two bills were
introduced. to- day. exactly like the one
vetoed, eSCep. that one limits the time to
three and the other to ten years, but it i
not thought that either will pass.
The vote on the passage OF the bill, the
veto OF the President to the contrary, not
withStandiug was y to i. not twe.thirds
and so the bin failed to pass. and the result
will only be to embitter the factions still

the man charged with forging the name Of
S. Baer 4 Son, of Wheeling, for the pur-
pose of obtaining money was brought BE-
fore the Mayor, to-day, and as no one ap-
peared against him, he was discharged.
1t is announced by railroad officials that
100 employees Of the F., e. Il St. l. railroad
shops, OF this city, will I've discharged to-
morrow. The list will include paintsrs,
carpenters and bcacksmiths, and . few
laborers. The Railroad Company claim
they must cut down expenses, As they lost
large amoun, of money last year on their
leased lines, the p, W. & Ny. being about
the only one that paid anything.
II is further announced that there will
be in the neighborhood Of 5000 employees
of this road discharged between Pittsburgh
and Columbus for the same reason-to cut
down expenses. The men are not very nm
easy about it, as there is plenty OF work in
this city for three times that number.
A bold robbery occurred in this city at
an early hour this morning. The house Of
John Burns. on Washington street, WAS
entered the thieves getting into Mr.. Burns
sleeping room and taking a valuable gold

sHIPHERD ONCE MORE.
Reiterating His Assertions In Regard
90 Minister Hurlbut and Mr.. Blaine
Another Missing Letter Introduced.

WASHINGTON A pril 5.-Shipherd gives us
some additional impressions OF Hurlput
and Blaine this morning, prefacing them
with the announcement that IN JUS
tice TO himself, he proposed to treat the
dead rs living and the living aS though
they were dead His latest and most in
tense view is that Hurlbut was not only
purchasable. but that he must be pur-
chased. His view of Blaine was similar.
The Committee were in their chairs around
the table at half-past ten. Shipherd did not
take his seat at the foot of the table until
half-past eleven. The Deputy Sergeant-at-
Arms thought the Chairman had notified
the witness to be present. The Chairman
thought the Deputy Sergeant-at-Arms had
done this duty. However, the Deputy hay-
Ing been punched up. went after the wit
ness and brought him in, an hour after
time. Meanwhile the committee discussed
the Chinese bill veto and the Irish ques-
ton. After desultOry talk on these sub
jects the chairman produced letter from
the late Minister Hurlbut, dated Lima,
March 10TH in which the Minister prom
ised to be in Washington about April 18th,
and added that the United States were in
bad odor in South America, and that he
hoped the Foreign Affairs Committee
would pull them out Poor fellow

mittee, at least trust not" Having deCid-
ed that the Chinese indemnity ought to
be returned at once lest China should take
offence even at the modified restriction OF
immigration and drop the United States
from her visiting list, and that one more
mass meeting in New York would liberate
the rest OF theimprisOned Irish Americans,
the committee then turned its attention to
the witness, who had just bowed himself in.
Shipherd talked to the committee, and the
committee then alked to Shipherd until
quarter past twelve. when the committee
adjourned until tomorrow morning. After
one more missing letter had been produced
(that of May y to the President in which
Grants nomination 10 the Presidency OF
the Peruvian Company was withdrawn
in consequence oi his letter to SEN
ator Jones, OF Nevada Shipherd
read carefully prepared statement
OF facts highly magnilOIuent. in which
he reiterated all that he had said about the
necessity of plaCating Hurlbut, and said
that he believed then and now that Hurl-
but must be purchased or he would play
dog in the manger al Nbji"uJ, and that Hurl-
butts word and subsequent course i'm the
matter confirmed his belief. He cited all
the allegations made against HurlbutS in.
tcgrity in the campaigns Of his district, and
claimed they afforded just ground for his
judgment. He said he had referred to
those charges and particularly those re-
ierred 10 i'm the famous supreme Court dis
CUSsiOn and the charge on file IN the War
Department. In Il conversation with
him in October Blaine didn't think they
amounted to anything. granting them to be
true.
