negative vote was cast by democrats
and four or FIVE republicans.
Mr.. Kelly moved to suspend the
rules and adopt the following resolu-
ton: That on the 18th oi February,
or on any day thereafter, the COM
mittee of the whole on the state Of
the union, having consideration of the
house tariff bill, Ia hereby empowered
to order the bill and amendments
thereto to the house for its action,
with such recommendation as may be
determined upon by a majority vote
of said committee, and on February
18th o motion made in committee
of the whole to rise and report the
bill to the house. should take pre-
cedent of motion to amend.
The motion was seconded, 100 to
| 80.
Mr.. Kelley said the country expect
ed this congress to revise the revenue
system and to reduce the excessive
surplus income. The tactics which
delayed the internal revenue bill until
near the close of last session, and had
forced down it's proportions, were now
being resorted to In connection with
with the pending tariff bill. If the house
Is to pass tariff bill 1t must have
power to escape from the distinguished
leadership ON the other side; that
Leadership (referring to Springer)
which, on joke, mistook specimens
of American ceramic art as q cusps-
dore and lectured the house on the ex-
travagance of American workingmen
In providing themselves with such
costly spittoons. Laughter and ap-
plause on the Republican side
A long ncrimnnions debate On the
motion ensued. Messrs. Morrison,
Carlisle, Hatch and Springer opposed.
They criticised and ridicuIed the tariff
bill and the commission. Messrs.
Haskell, Mckinley, Reed and others
made long speeches In favor of the
motion. Mckinley believed the dem
ocratic side had made up It's mind de-
liberately that If it could be prevented
no tariff legislation should be- enacted
by this congress.
| Mr.. Springer-That is not so.
Mr.. McKinley--I have heard rep
resentative men on the other side OF
the house say they could amend this
bill until the 4th of March, and that
they would do 1t rather than that the
republican party should pass tariff
bill. Great confusion
Mr.. McKenzie--Name your men
1 defy you to name them.
Mr.. McKinley-I can name men on
the very committee on which serve
who are honest enough to say that
rather than have bill reported by the
committee on ways and means they
would set here until March 4th before
the bill should be passed. [Derisive
laughter on the democratic side and
cries of 'Oh, this is another thing. Il
The motion to suspend the rules and
adopt the resolution was lost yeas

thirds In the affirmative.

Mexicaniaud American Diplomacy
Special Dispatch to The BRR.

SPoSih bibpotSh W 1hh Dhh.
WASHINGTON, February g. The
diplomatic correspondence concerning
the Weilla Orbra claim against Mex
leo tells the story OF awards made in
the case and fruitless etfjrts of the
Mexican government to have the pay
ment suspended because, as alleged,
fraud has been perpetrated. AS each
installment became due the Mexican
minister protested against payment,
and when the fifth installment was
paid he endesvoreo to have the cases
reopened, bat Evarts, the secretary of
, stktl, f...G .iis ls.yi1:izssiiSa & The
president WAS not to reopen the cases.
The decision was final, and that the
awards must be distributed unless
congress should direct to the contrary.
Payment was made just at the close of
President Hayes administration in
M y, 1881. I,maoona advised Blaine
that new and important proofs of
fraud In the Weiila case ex-
istsd In the treasury department
in the shape of affidavits of
Weilla's witnesses and reports of
treasury special agents. This latter,
it was alleged showed that the sigma.
ture of the mextxican minister had
been forged to letter Offering money
to parties IN New York against the
claim. Zlmacona asked for copies OF
these papers In December, 1881.
Blaine forwarded the copies asked and
stated this government can have nc
less interest than that of the Mexican
in probing any allegation of fraud
whereby the good faith of both in
common transaction imposed upon
December I'd, and Z,mscona addressed
Frelinghuysen, thanking him for the
documents furnished by Blaine and
for the declaration by which they
were accompanied, but stating tina,
the assurance of the secretary would
be still more satisfactory if he would
give some indication with regard to
steps that may be taken by botn gov.
ernments conjointly only that of the
Mexican alone, with view of sub
serving the ends of justice and NOR
allty in this matter, recount
ing the history of the
claims for four years past.
he alluded to the refusal of Evarts tc
open the cases automatically, to the
inaction of congress ON Evarts recon-
mendation, and to the objection made
by an appeal to the courts, and sale
that his government found three pathl
before it, each one equally obstructeG
to the convention of 1868 on one hant

Judge Black n Polygs my.

SPoSi" biSpeeSh W Ahh bhE
WASHINGTON, February 4 Judge
Black, in his argument before the
house judiciary committee against the
the constitutionslity of the anti Nor.
mon legislation, took the ground that
the matter to which these laws relate
were in theirlnsture more purely do.
mestic, private and local than any
other to which human legislation ap.
plies. Mormous have the right to
make their own laws on the subject of
their rights which belongs by nature,
and as a great principle of universal
law to every separate community to
settle upon the public lends with the
consent of the federal government.
When these people colonize them
selves beyond the limits Of state they
did not leave their liberties behind
them, the freedom OF communit y results
necessarily from the freedom of indi-
viduals that composeit. Tais was the
very principle that trlumphed in the
success Of our revolution. No one can
deny 1t now except for &C ,asions which
would have made him tory In 1776
The right of local self government is
reserved by the constitution to the
people of territories as distinctly and
clearly as to states, the subject upon
which congress cannot legislate In a
state manifestly beyond its power in a
territory. What is called the Edmund
bill, but which the senator of that
name certainly did not draw up, ex.
pressly puts it constitutionslity on the
exclusive jurisdiction Of the United
States In the territories. Judge Black
denounced this as simply fabric.
No such jurindiction is given
nor any jurisdiction at all over
local affairs In territories more than
in states the powers are given but are
withheld. This Is more a usurpatiop
aud gross violation of the constitution,
which is wilfully committed and is an
heinous crime. Judge Black con,
clu led with the assertion that the bill
Is one of pains and penalties, and will
not pdnish polygamy, but is to strike
the whole people of the territory with
a blasting curse of political slavery,
snd protested against all this leglsla-
tion as pertidous outrage upon the
civil liberty of the people who are and
OF right ought to be free.
