from g. 600 to %, 500. Mr.. Davis said that one
of the objections urged against the bill has been
the expense it proposes. The salary proposed
is in accordance with the grade of the court
The amendment was adopted, and the bill was
recommitted
Senator Hilligass introduced a resolution pro-
viding that the General Assembly shall adjourn

for the Legislature to adjourn and 60 home.
Senator Magee protested against the considera-

vote would be used by the Republicans in the
next campaign as record agains. the Demo
cratic party and during spirited colloquy
which ensued between Senator Hilligass and
Magee, the Senate was declared adjourned until
afternoon without any vote being taken on the

Senator Mays bill concerning the employ

third time. The salary is to be So per day and
10 cents per hundred words for transcribing.
When the bill had just been read, Mr.. Engle
laid that the Senate had passed similar bill
which he had introduced. Further considera-
ton of the bill was, therefore, postponed.
Mr.. Sears moved to reconsider the vote on the
resolution which called for the disposition of
House bills on the third reading in the order
they appear on the calendar. He said the
Senate was paying no attention to House bills
and had passed resolution to adjourn sine die
on Monday, while the whole of the day had been
given over by the House to passing Senate bills
This brought out speeches by Messrs. Williams,
Moody, Engle and Kellison, who thought this
motion was impolitic as it would have the effect
to widen the breach between the House and SEN
ate. Mr.. Sears then withdrew the motion. The
Speaker stated that there were twenty seven
Senate bills for the third reading yet on the
House calendar and that all of to-day would be
given to the consideration of House bills.
The House then adjourned until 8 o'clock this
morning.

In reply to general remark upon the rank of
his administration in history the ex-President
said that he did not think the subject could be
properly treated in casual conversation. 1t
was evident that he fully appreciated thepecu-
liar circumstances attending his assumption of
the duties Of the presidential oce not especially
on account of the tragic removal of the Presl-
dent as account of the widening of the breach
which was threatened between President
Garfield and certain powerful party leaders. In
direct reference to the subject the ex President
appeared to feel that for the present it would be
better to allow the whole matter to rest 1t is
known that he has carefully preserved all CORE
spondence and other materials relating particu-
larly to the earlier period of his assumption of
the reins of government. The strained attitude

so far as concerned the re-establishment of
personal relations with the President, and the
Presidents duty to his party are subjects which
will be presented in their true light in time.
The ex-President evidently teels that poll
tically speaking no act of his administration
could be construed into source of weakness or
distraction within the lines of the Republican
party, and that the loss of power was traceable
to causes for which neither he nor his admins
tration were responsible. Before his retirement
from the executive mansion President Arthur
collated for his own use the most important
state papers and other documents which
emanated from his own hand. These were put
in type and small number were printed for his
own use. 1t is not improbable that the ex
President will prepare the story of his own adj
mnistration, but whether it will be given to the
world during his life or be reserved for postum
Gus publication will doubtless depend upon de-
velopments and they may affect the relations
of his administration to the events of the future.

The Senate Adopts Resolution for
Final Adjournment Next Monday.
4 Spirited Political Debate-The General
Appropriation Bill Passed by the House,
and Taken Up by the Senate.
RESOLVING TO END ITSELF.

a Spirited Debate Over Resolution to
Finally Adjourn ON Next Monday.
Nearly half of the time that the Senate was
IN session yesterday was consumed in the DIS
cussion of resolution, introduced by Senator
Hilligass fixing next Monday as the date for the
final adjournment of the General ASSEM- ly.
The resolution provoked one of the most spirited
political debates that has occurred in the Senate
since the beginning of the regular session. 1t
began with protest from Senator Magee against
the proposition, for the reason that the vote on
It would be used by the Republic
ans as capital He was opposed to the Demo
cratic members of the Senate going on record
On the resolution because it would be used
against them in the next campaign. The House
bad repeatedly defeated similar proposition,
and, therefore, the action Of the Senate would
snly be to make record. From this statement
Of the matter arose a political debate upon the
party records involved in the question, covering,
ina general way, the odious history of the present
Legislature. Senators Foulke and Marshall
represented the Republican side, and
Senator Willard the Democratic defense
1t was rather spirited, but the merits of the
question were all on one side, and they were very
ably set forth by the Republican speakers.
The resolution presented to the Democratic
Senators very disagreeable question to vote
bpon. They succeeded in evading it at the
morning session by a.timely adjournment and
when it was called up in the afternoon an effort
was made to dispose of the resolution by laying
It on the table. This however, carried with it
the same record that would be made on the orig
inal proposition, and the motion was
defeated, resulting finally in the adoption
of the resolution by vote of 81 to T. Senator
Senator Brown changed his vote from the mega
tive to the affirmative for the purpose, he an
nounced, of moving reconsideration.
The resolution will doubtless come up in the
House this morning for concurrent action, but
there is little probability that il will be adopted
1t was claimed last evening, however, by several
representatives, that number of the members
of the House who had opposed all propositions
for adjournment would support the
resolution, and that it would be
accepted from the Senate as banter Repre-
sentative Sears thought that if there was any
probability of an adjournment on next Monday
the House should devote the remaining time to
the consideration of its own bills, without re-
gard to regular ORDERS" allowing each body to
proceed in a ''go-as you please" order. The
Democratic leaders state quite positively that,
sven if there is no adjournment on next Mon
lay the session will be brought to close before
HE end of next week.

GARFIELD'S WIDOW.
RumOr that She Will Be Married to Rev
William M. Taylor in June.


Pittsburg Special
The congregation of the Westfeld Presbyter-
ian Church, of Newcastle near Mount jackson,
Lawrence county, were recently surprised and
delighted that their beloved pastor, Rev. VIM.
M Taylor, was engaged to be married to the
widow of the lamented President Garfield. The
information was conveyed to them in a delicate
way, as properly it should be, and they regard
the forthcoming match with deep interest
There are many romantic features in the affair."
inasmuch as the first wife of Rev. Taylor was a
companion and friend Of Mrs Garfield during
the period of their girlhood
Rev. Taylor is about fifty years old and is of
medium height His hair and whiskers once
black, are now slightly tinged with gray His
complexion is a dark olive, and his eyes are
black and sparkling. He would not be consid-
cred handsome man according to sde standards
of critical comparison but he is pleasant and
agreeable. He is one of fourteen sons of ex-
Judge Taylor, of Lawrence county. He is a
man OF fine literary attachments. He graduated
at Jefferson College, then at Canonsburg, in the
year 1853 After leaving Jefferson College he
went through the Princeton IN. J.) Theological
Seminary. When ordained in the ministry he
took charge of the Westfeld congregation,
where he has remained ever since. Shortly
charge he married Miss Packer, of Hiram
Ohio, whom he had met while on visit
to the latter place. Miss Packer was a
classmates of Mrs. Garfield and they both at
tenueu the cOlieRe aG HIRAM, graduating Wnlle
President Garfield was at the head of tina. in
stitution They maintained their friendship
after both had married, and in this way Rev.
Taylor and Mrs Garfield became acquainted.
A year ago last July Mrs. Taylor visited her
parents at Hiram and while there died suddenly
of heart disease. Mrs. Garfield sent the be-
reaved husband her sympathies on the sad oc-
casion, and they frequently met when the Rev.
Taylor was on his way to and from Hiram. The
friendship thus established ripened. until it is
now an open secret in the Westfeld flock that
their shepherd is to marry the widow of the dis
tinguished President
The reverend gentleman makes frequent visits
to the home of Mrs. Garfield, and the intima-
tons which the congregation has received indi
cate that the event is to come off sometime next
summer Their only anxiety at present is as to
whether they are going to lose their present
parsonage
