xLvIIIth CONGRESS.
WASHINGTON, February 10, 1884.

SENATE.
The bin TO increase the endowment OF
the University OF Alabama from public
lands in said State was read three times
and passed.
After the passage OF some bills for private
relief the Chair laid before the Senate the
unfinished business of yesterday, being the
bill 10 provide for the issue OF circulation
to national banks. Mr. Bayard then adj
dressed the Senate in opposition TO MIR.
Plumb's amendment. The debate was
continued by Messrs. Mcpherson, Plumb.
Allison, Vest, Mitchell, Morgan, and
others.
Mr.. Plumb withdrew his modification Of
yesterday 10 the amendment formerly pro-
posed; which modification provided that
the real intent and meaning OF the section
was that the volume OF paper money out
starding, exclusive OF gold and silver-cer-
titicatcs. should remain as now existing.
Mr.. Mcpherson said that the committees
bin was plain proposition, which every
man could understand for himself. 1t pro-
posed to issue currency up TO the par value
of the bond, and that the only other propo-
sition submitted in the amendment OF the
bill meant something else, and he did not
agree with them.
After some discussion between Messrs.
Beck, Coke, and Pugh, with reference to
the scope OF the Plumb amendment, Mr..
Morgan said he proposed to offer an amend
ment 10 the amendment OF the Senator from
Kansas so as to provide that whenever
any portion OF the circulation OF q national
bank shall be surrendered in consequence
OF call and payment OF bonds by the United
States Government, an equal amount OF
Treasury notes shall be issued by the Gov
eminent in lieu thereof so as to prevent
shrinkage Of circulation"
After some remarks by Mr.. Morgan.
there was an executive session, after which
the Senate adjourned.
HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES..
The House remained in session all night,
and mt s:15 this morning, the Democrats
having secured quorum, and further
proceedings under the call having been
dispensed with, the question required on
seconding the motion made by Mr.. Hew-
lit, OF Alabama. to suspend the rules and
adopt the resolution making the Mexican
pension bill the special order FOR the 21st
instant. Seconded by vote OF 165 to /.
The House was in no mood for the
thirty-minutes' debate allowed by the
rules. and Mr.. Warner, OF Ohio, simply
expressed opposition to the bill because he
thought it to be unwise to change the
ground Of pensions from disability to SER
vice. The resolution was adopted-yeas,
17j; nays, So.
The announcement Of the result was
received with applause on the Democratic
side. and the House, at $50, adjourned until
Wednesday.

WASHINGTON, d. c.. February 19.-The
Southern Railway and Steamship Associa-
ton began a special meeting in this city
this afternoon. The object OF the meeting
was to adjust matters of disagreement be-
tween the Georgia Central railroad and
East Tennessee, Virginia and Georgia
railroad, and to decide whether the
Association pool shall continue. About
seventy gentlemen are present. repre-
senting all southern roads and steam.
ship companies. The convention was
called to order by Senator Brown, OF Geor-
gia. Charlie. A. Sindall acting rs secretary,
and Virgil Powers, General Commissioner,
being present. Only routine business was
transacted this evening. 1t is expected
that the convention will continue two or
three daysA
The Association assembled at half-past s
O'Clock in secret session. The committee
to which was referred the points OF differ
ence between the Central Railroad Com
pany of Georgia and the East Tennessee,
Virginia and Georgia Railroad Com
pany made its report in the shape
OF set OF resolutions, the purpoTt
OF which was that a company belonging
to the Association was entitled to eXclu-
sive control of its local traffic brought to
competitive points. The resolutions were
adopted; whereupon Mr.. Fink, represent
ing the East Tennessee, Virginia and
Georgia Company. regarding the action of
the meeting as decision against his COM
pany, gave notice it would retire from the
Association. Mr.. Haskell, president of the
Charlotte, Columbia and Augusta Railroad
Company, inquired what the effect OF
the resolutions would be. He regarded
them Us equivalent TO dissolution
of the Association. Senator Brown re-
piled that the withdrawal OF one member
would not necessarily break up the Asso-
citation. After pause a member moved
that the existing arrangement be con-
tinued until July 1st, the Executive Com
mittee to meet on June 1st and endeavor
TO arrange the difficulties, and in the
event Of their failure to agree. the
full Association TO meet, and II pos
sible provide for further continuance
until January 1, 1885. Mr.. Fink said that
he would reconsider his action il the As
ISOLATION fayorably regarded this motion.
The motion was adopted with the effect OF
causing MIR. Raoul, Of the Central Georgia,
TO give notice that bis system would re-
fuse TO be bound by the agreement after
the LIST OF March next. A disruption OF
the Association seemed imminent. Mr..
Raoul reproached the Association for its
vacillating course as shown by the
unanimous adoption OF the committees
report in favor Of his system and its sub
sequent action in adopting motion OF an
opposite character. Messrs. Rives, Has
kel, and other members endeavored to
reconcile the antagonistic interests without
success, and the meeting adjourned until
tomorrow, In order TO give time for con-
sideFation of the matter.
