CONGR ESSIONAL.
HOUSE,


WASHINGTON, D. G. Jan. TO- I'm.
mediately after the reading Of the
journal, Randall moved to dispense
with the morning hours for the
purpose Of pressing the navy ar-
preparation bill to its passage. This
was strongly opposed by stockslager
who maintained that the house
should proceed to the consideration
of the special order in reference to
public buildings,
Randall pointed to the importance
of passing the appropriation bill
speedily. Not to do so would be to
risk an extra session which would be
of little good to the country ind still
less to the party to which he belonged.
Stockslager replied with some
warmth that he was performing what
he considered his duty in contending
for the execution Ct the special order.
A brisk and apparently personal
c0llOquy then sprang up between
Randall and St0ckslager but the con-
fusion in the hall wa so great as to
render remarks unintelligible.
demanded the yeas and
nays on Randall's motion which was
lost, yeas 1876; nays SO, the necessary
two-thirds not voting in the afirma-
tive. Stockslager then moved
the house 60 into committee
of the whole for the consideration of
public building measures and asked
consent to make a statement.
Hutchins objected. The navy de-
partment was without an appropria- |
ion and it was time the house should
proceed to business. Stockslager's !
notion was lost, " to 98 and the |
speaker proceeded to call committees |
or reports. After the consideration
If several public improvement bills |
he house went into committee of the |
whole (Wellburn in the chair) on the |
naval appropriation bills for the re-
of the current year. The
,ouse then passed the bill.

CONVERSATIONAL.
SENATE.

| WASHINGTON, Jan. 8.-Dolph re-
ported favorably from the committee
on public lands bill to amend the
revised statutes relating to the entry
of coal lands. By reducing the price
of such lands from $40 to $5 per acre
, when the lands are more than Is
miles from any completed railway,
and from $40 to $40 when the lands
are within Is miles of q completed
railway. In the report, Dolph said
all other mineral lands are sold at SIS
per acre, and there is no good reason
for the difference in price which now
exists between coal lands and other
mineral lands. He also said, should
the bill be passed, the sale of coal
lands would bs largely increased and
the opening and development of coal
mines greatly stimulated, and the
receipts of the government from the
sale of this class cor. siderably aug
mented. The board appointed to
Investigate the comparative merits
of anthracite and bituminous coal
for ordinary naval uses, reports it
considers anthracite better adapted
for the purpose named than bitumin-
Gus. The board is, however, of the
opinion that semi-bituminOus coal is
better than either, especially If prac-
ticable the smokeless variety can be
obtained.
WASHINGTON, Jan, 9. Garland
SAID congress could not divest itself
of its legislative power and hand it
over to any convention. The powers
Of q convention are extraordinary.
1t not only governs the convention
legislative but judicial power. It is
secured to courts competent to deal
with the questions involved and if |
they were not their jurisdiction could
be enlarged. The bill just passad by
the house was better measure than
any measures proposed in the senate.
The house bill defined what was
wanted and did not delegate the
power Of congress to any other body.
Garland wanted to see the object in
view accomplished and felt he could
say that senators on his side of the
chamber would cheerfully act in
bringing the matter to close at this
session. He believed greater progress
would have been made by recon-
all the bills and proposed
to the convention who
could consider them and report to
the senate.
Cullum said he was willing to con-
cede everything possible to Garland,
whom he regarded as one of the most
eminent lawyers in the senate or
nevertheless he preferred to
have the bill discussed in the senate.
A motion to reconsider the sub
ect was rejected by vote of IS to
"a.
Cullum said when after discussion
The senate bill should be perfected he
would have to amend the house
Dlll by substituting the senate bill for
Il.
Wilson's amendment making it
unlawful for railroads to discrimin-
ste against localities or individuals I
vas added to the bill.
Vance proposed an amendment
making 1t unlawful for railroads to {
,harge small shippers higher rates
han large ones. While the motion
vas pending the senate went into !
executive session and soon after ad.
ourned uutil Monday.

I know that one spot will come back to my

Though the storms Of lifs's winter my heart
strings may chill,
Though rough twill appear to my fancy
elysian,
'Tis The great Anaconda that pierces The hill.
How often I've stood near the SHAFT they were

And sassd IN it, depths the dense gloom to
explore;
With what weird, mistic shapes does my fancy
companion

As watch the brave miners come up from

At the great Anaconda that pierces the hIlls
S0met nes ct the mouth Of the shaft have
listened,
And heard won 1erous tales from the men of
: the mine,
OF the old pioneers; and I've seen their
eyes glisten
Rehesrsing the stories Of ia med Forty-nine

Or Of Jack that went forth the great giant to |
