In the Senate After the Count.

MIR. EDMUNDS' DECLARATION CREATES STIR.
When the Senate reassembled after the cleo
toral count MIR. Conger rose to protest against
the final declaration made of the result of the
electoral vote in the joint convention by Mr..
Edmunds.
Mr.. Sherman agreed with him.
Mr.. ingalls, submitted a resolution declaring
the dissent of the Senate from Mr.. Edmunds'
mode of final declaration.
1t was objected to and Mr.. Hoar then offered
resolution reciting the total of the vote and
declaring that nothing further was necessary to
make finally binding and legal the result OF the
count.
There was quite stir among the Senators, es-
Edmunds final declaration. They insisted
that 1t is the right, power and duty Of the presi-
dent Of the Senate to absolutely declare the re-
suit, and not as Mr.. Edmunds did, to say that
his declaration had no force Of law.
ITO q STAR reporter Mr.: ingalls, said that his
resolution was to prevent MIR. Edmunds' action
being known as precedent
All the resolutions offered went over.
The declaration made by Mr.. Edmunds was
not, as some suspected, intended to cast any
imputation upon the integrity of the vote, but
simply to assert his fixed beiefthat the president
OF the Senate has no lawful authority to declare
the result. This whole subject was deliberately
when several Senators maintained that it was a
dangerous power to intrust In one man to aIl-
thorize the President Of the Senate to absolutely
DECLARE the result without the right OF appeal.
The subject will come up in the Senate to-
morrow when to-day's resolutions will be taken
up.
During the discussion Mr. Edmunds said be
regarded the Senate as in no way responsible
for the declaration made by him. He had on
his own responsibility made the declaration.
