day proceeded to consideration of MIR.

sions and the speech of Mr.. Morrill, (who

LEGISLATIVE EXPENSES.
The Senate Takes the House to Task
for Its Alleged Tardiness.

Tor Its Alleged TardIneSS.
WASHINGTON, June 30.-The Senate
to-day proceeded to the consideration OF
the legislative appropriation bill. In the
course of discussion on amendments in
creasing the clerical force OF some of the
departments, Mr.. Beck declared that he
felt humiiated by the fact that many of
the appropriations were diminished SO
that tne members of the House might be
able to 10 to the country and say
how economical they were ana
now eXtravagant the Senate was.
He also criticized the House for it's delay
in passing the appropriation bills. The
sundry civil appropriation bill was not
yet sent To the Senate. The legislative
bill was in its present condition on the
last day OF the fiscal year. The naval bill
had not yet been considered. The de-
ticiency bill had not yet been looked at.
He was not proud of the record.
Mr.. Plumb said that the House took all
the time it needed and then 1t launched
the appropriation bills on the Senate
without giving the Senate time TO consi-
der them. The legislative bill should
have had mueh more cOnslder ration than
the Senate Appropriations Committee mad
been able TO give 1t. 1t had TO take many
things blindly. lie thought it would be Il
good idea for the Senate and House to
remain in session till September, October
or November, until every item in the ap-
preparation bills had been fully scrutin-
ized.
The conference report on the District
Of Columbia appropriation bill was sub
mitted and explained by Mr.. Plumb and
was agreed To. Auer disDosng OF as
