e1SAr1.-!The house bull permitting the
expectation free Of duty of tobacco to ad-

idential succession bill occupied the atten-
ton of the senate nearly the entire day.
Messrs. Maxey and Lapham discussed the
constitutional phases Of the measure, geu-
orally favoring its provisions. In the
course of his speech Mr.. Lapham argued
that it was necessary to take prompt lnea.
surea to avoid the recurrence of the Difficult
ties which followed the assassination of
President Garfield: He was of the opinion
the duties of the president. This brought
out an Interruption from Mr.. Hoar, who
asked if be (Mr. Lapham) had been in the
place of Mr.. Arthur would he have taken the
oath of president?
.No,' I.apham replied, II would not. "
"Would you have taken the salary?"
Eyes," Mr.. Lapham said; but should
have paid it over to the widow Of the late

Mr.. Lapham, however, approved Of Mr.

missioner of internal revenue in Illinois is
